You shouldn't be able to move in Passive Mode

Hello. You shouldn't be able to move in Passive Mode. Passive move has become a strategical weapon for noobs, An example: a noob switch to passive mode, goes for a tank. There is no way to prevent this noob from taking a tank. Passive mode should be for people who need to go to WC or go to drink something etc. You might say that passive mode is useful for people who just explore the world, those people should join to only invite session, not public.

No. YOU go to invite only if you don't like it.

 

No, i want to play in public. i don't mind people going for a tank, but not in passive mode!! I just want fair gunfight without any ridiculous simplifications.

Then don't fight them!!! Jesus, stop crying, just go passive yourself. Go somewhere else since tanks aren't f*cking sports cars, and pick a fight with other people!

 

I don't want to be a pussy that runs away to another session. Maybe you would behave likie this, but not me. I am not crying. I just make good desigin decission that weren't made under development the game.

You just said that it's not fair, so how is it being a pussy to just back out of the situation? Also, I said go to a different area of the map with different people so you can have your fair f*cking fight, not leave the whole damn session. I'm just trying to say you should find a solution for yourself rather than whine about what others are doing.

8/10 would get trolled again

If you don't like passive players maybe YOU should go to invite only sessions.

Noobs cant get tanks....

First, you're bitching about legitimate game mechanics. So yeah, you're crying. They're legit, and talking about it here won't change sh*t. Take getting owned like a man or stick to solo sessions since that's more your speed.

 

Second, I'd rather Passive mode shouldn't work in weaponized vehicles and in crate drop vicinities. Every time you kill someone, you get a 2-minute delay before entering Passive. Meaning? If you were a second away from being able to turn on passive and you kill someone, that's 2 minutes again. Lastly, killing in passive mode gives you a 5-minute delay as well as making you kill yourself automatically so that you don't run away afterwards.

Yeah, and I should let a noob to go for a tank in passive mode, and let him kill me? Going for a tank in passive mode is like entering a cheat code, cause from turning on a passive mode to entering a tank he is immortal

Nah, that's not what passive mode should be used for. Obviously. But I agree there are certain things you shouldn't be able to enter while in passive mode, or enable passive mode while therein. Tanks, jets, hpvs, the immediate proximity of a crate drop, etc.

This'd work - because either it'd immediately kick you out of Passive Mode when trying to do these things (same way killing someone with an ignition/remote/sticky bomb would drop you out of passive in old-gen), or just lock things out until you disable it.

 

Considering how tanks would still be ridiculously dangerous even without guns, I reckon it'd be best to have Rhinos as 'you cannot enter this while in passive mode', while Lazers/Buzzards/etc. would be ok as immediately disabling Passive as soon as you fire the guns (i.e., don't fire, and you'll stay in passive).

 

HPVs - defeats the object of them in public Freemode if you're untouchable, so at the very least, have it like old-gen Passive, where you'd be vulnerable to attack as soon as you got in a car for HPVs specifically. As for crates, being able to run on one and get the contents without even breaking the crate feels like an oversight - at the very least, you should have to exit Passive to shoot the crate open (and I do quite like the idea of as soon as you get in the vicinity of one, you're kicked out of Passive immediately).

 

 

Used to be that Passive Mode had some loopholes that still left people open to attack from nutters and griefers - the updated version, however, lets things like the above slip through the cracks. Doesn't take much to just fine-tune it, particularly for exceptional circumstances like the above - but just moaning about how it shouldn't exist at all and "just go play invite-only scrub!" doesn't solve anything...

So do you admit your idea was stupid and that there are simpler solutions, or are you going to continue to argue a terrible point and/or innane arguments not necessarily related to the original idea expressed?

[elfoam]

New gen passive mode is great. I never shoot at anyone first anyway so the only difference to me is it doesn't cost me money every time some idiot shoots me for no reason.

 

This is better for my richness, which means I can afford ammo, which means I came out of passive mode last night, got shot and spent the next 10minutes lighting up the map with 100k worth of mingun rouns, grenades, RPGs and homing missiles on the culprits. Now I'm back on passive for the forseable future. Fun 10 minutes though.

 

I will complain heavily if the new passive mode is changed at all. Just because it doesn't suit the freeroamers who want to execute everyone on sight. And who cares about the HPV? Its such a waste of time.

ok, so let's play together in free mode. Lets shoot each other, lets make a street battle. Then i go to passive mode and go for a tank, but you won't be able to prevent me from doing this. What would you think in this situation?

I think this could be better addressed by better ideas elucidated by others and myself, which you haven't acknowledged.

I'd think, well time to leave this loser to have fun in his tank and find something else to do. Lmao.

stupid idea. One player out of 28 players in a lobby shouldn't be so powerful to make people run away from him.

I go into passive mode and laugh as you cannot kill me with your tank

[gawel772]

You are telling me the only solutions for this problem is to change session, go into passive mode, go to apartment etc... LOL i don't know who i am talking to.. you want to play fair or run away all the time from a noob?

It's there. If you don't want to use all your available tools, you shouldn't be asking for uneccessary changes.

[hangover_bro]

OP said passive lobbies. Before GTA released on ps4 xbone griefers lampooned the idea of passive lobbies. Now they want them so at least noobs who wouldn't know about said passive lobbies can be trolled. I love when I'm afk but still by screen and griefers always drive up and shoot hoping for that easy kill.

but maybe i would like to be more skilled than him, be more clever than him and first prevent him from going for a tank by killing him, then i would go for a tank myself. This is called a strategy! Changing a session, goiing into passive mode and laughing that he cannot kill me with his tank isn't a strategy, this is the noob strategy, without any gameplay value.

[ParkTyG]

People still use the word noob? Haha that's sooo 2008..

Too bad. He's in passive. Stop being a stubborn prick next time so you don't get your ass handed to you so much.

Saying that's so "insert year" is sooooooo 1983.

[ParkTyG]

So if you love strategy ohhhh so much (although you're playing a game that doesn't really require much more strategy than take cover, fire rocket launcher at opponents cover spot first but whatever), then figure out that you can't kill him if he's passive, so buy a tank, call it, go pick it up, and fight him. :-)

But you can't, he's in passive mode.

[TeammateHelper]

You can't handle running away. It's a strategy, and it's used by winning sides in both World Wars. You don't win just by throttling 24/7.

yeah... this is one solution. But maybe i don't have 75 level yet, and i cant call for a tank? In reality i have over 170 lvl, but i am just thinking for developers that didn't make good decission. I want this game to be balanced.
