I had to use ten because their jet must've had armor and it wouldn't blow up after 2 shots

So it still isn't nerfed enough? I guess whiners will whine. It's free roam... FREE! But of course, just like real life, people don't want freedom. They want protection from their fears rather than trying to overcome. C'mon guys lets see how many 'casuals' we can tend to, even though they have Find a new session, Invite Only session, CREW session and SOLO session.

 

Again, you're the losers that ruin the game for the rest, why don't you take your jet in a solo session, i guess since there isn't anyone to kill you, you don't need a jet to stay alive

Thankfully you get bad sport now for blowing up occupied cars with the jet and they added a Jet icon on the map so everyone can go passive when one goes by.

Jet icon is the dumbest addition to the game, including aircraft in general and helicopters. Not one sane person who plays this game would EVER ask for this sh*t.

I don't see how it's so dumb, even if you can obviously tell if an icon is moving fast it's a jet, now you can obviously tell a jet icon is a jet... What's the difference? Just adds to the game so you can look at the map and see what everyone is up to, I don't see what is not to like.

So, to use the heavy sniper to take down a jet do you lead the jet a bit or what? I'm pretty decent with a sniper against other players on the ground, so, I must be doing something wrong. Anyone care to offer some advice?

Well, first you should get into a good spot where you can see the sky clearly. Aim near him, and lead the scope in front of him. As soon as he passes through and the dot is on him, shoot. In about 2 shots he starts smoking.

normally the scrubs will get a couple kills then crash, not everyone who flies a jet is a noob you know


the lazer is now being treated as the rhino used to be which makes me slightly frustrated :/

I see them now and then, but not as much anymore. I crash my Besra into their LAZER and they leave. :3

Does the group hate speech report still work for the bans?

Before I left it was still working & a great way of getting rid of many noob jet pilots.

 


Jets need to be nerfed because you're unstoppable? Not really, If you are a jet pilot you would know numerous ways to escape them and combat them (I.E. Heavy Sniper). If you had Buzzard tier-guns it would take a sh*t ton of time to kill someone with it.

 

 

By that logic all the aircraft should have explosive cannons. In case you didn't notice, the P-996 LAZER has missiles too. You can kill with that.

You try to get people banned because they use jets?

 

Such skill. Very hardcore. Wow. So leet!

 

 

Lol... Not really jets, just anyone doing some lame sh*t like glitches, or going in passive/ragequitting/job jumping after dying in their jet. Its called manipulated the system, & I don't try, I succeed.

 

It was well known that 4 reports in the same lobby for Hate speech resulted in a ban, usually of 4 weeks depending on if you got in touch with R* through the support page.

 

Find new session

Jet killing is quite far from being noob, it takes skills to jet troll, and when someone kills me with a jet, when someone killed me with a jet I wasn't even mad, I grab one myself and have a dogfight.

"It takes skill to use a jet"

 

Takes 5 minutes to learn to use one P.S not everyone is a jet wanker

 

"Use the heavy sniper"

 

Fight a flying death machine with a sniper that takes a while to reload. lol.

Wondering if any one knows if it matters where you hit the jet. Like if more damage occurs if you nail the engine or is it just one giant hitbox? I get different results every time, sometimes 2, sometimes 4,5,6 shots. It might be someone else is also sniping it, so it flames up faster, but idk for sure.

I shot a stationary jet in the engine and it seemed to go faster. One test is not enough though. Gotta steal somemore and try differentways of destroying them.

Magazines maybe, but two shots?? I call strong bullsh*t. It took 3-4 Heavy Sniper mags for me to destroy a Lazer in Base Invaders, but a moving fighter jet who might be rubber-banding all over the place due to lag? Yeah, good luck downing that with two bullets.

You're scum for using an unrelated report function to satisfy your anger at being terrible.

People riding around in jets are lame. I never bought this game to fly around or reenact scenes from f*cking top gun.

I see jets quite often, but I almost never see a notification saying that the jet pilot killed someone.

It was never Top Gun, only bad players keep getting killed by jets.

 

Not played recently though, my playing time is being consumed by Destiny.

Thankfully? No, don't fix a problem by adding another problem. Add a counter measure against jets. A lock-on missile launcher would do the trick. To avoid it being OP, just make it as effective as the jet's missiles, so they're easy to avoid but enough to make the jets try a different approach.

 

inb4 there already is a counter measure against jets. No, a sniper rifle is not a counter measure.

 

 

I have often advocated the need for lock-on, ground-to-air missiles for this, but lately I have been using the Buzzard a lot for missions, and I have found that the GTA0 lock-on function is only useful for stationary and slow-moving targets. The missile goes to the spot in the sky (or ground) where the lock-on box was, when the missile was launched -- it does not actually track the target. So it would always miss the jets. "Console limitations," or bad programming? :p

OP,

You aren't thinking about the players that have wanted their own military type planes.

Those have been on people's wish lists for a long time, so while it sucks for us that hate being blown up for no reason, its good for the people who wanted to fly in jet planes, etc, even if some are being jerks.

lol, someone flying in the lazer having nothing better to do than divebomb everyone in the lobby again and again. I brought out my Adder and just stood there. BAM. $12K bill to the pilot. Did it again and again and again and again, just kept calling Moors. Pilot racked up nearly a $100K bill within a fairly short period of time, plus several BS warnings.

Stealing a jet is still technically Grand Theft Auto..

Jets didn't ruin GTA Online.

Randomly yanking us out of Passive Mode did.

To the jet pilots who claim they are not griefing wankers, I would say, you can have a lot of fun practicing your jet flying and having PvE satisfaction in an Invite Only or Solo session. Less lag for you, and no need to share your fun with a lobby who will not appreciate you. :p I'm sure you all can get behind that.

 

Funny how I never see any sociable jet action, like a few random jet pilots getting together in a lobby to fly in formation and put on an airshow. Seems like the only jets I know of, make their presence known by the sound of distant explosions, which rapidly get closer and louder.

Two bullets to smoke. The plane still has enough life to turn around and kill you numerous times...

 

Just tested it. I was wrong. It takes 10 shots to the fusilage for a plane to explode, almost 2 full Heavy Snipers magazines to destroy a Lazer. Sorry, this is the first time I played this game since friday...

Pretty much this.

 

As long as you're not as retarded on the ground as they are in the sky, you'll be fine.
