Special Abilities in Online? Boom mind blown

[Jerking For Soup]

Sorry If there is already a topic made about this or whatever, direct it to me I guess.

 

I think it would be an awesome idea to add special abilities like in SP for Online. You could choose yours and it would last for like 5 seconds or so. You would unlock them by winning like 50 LTS or Deathmatches.

5 seconds worth of special ability would be worthless and those would ruin the game because that means god mode (Trevor) and game lag (Michael&Franklin). I brought Michael online and tried his ability and people got pissed lol.

I would guess you would not have god mode but an inch of extended health in this.

As cool as that would be, I don't really see how it would work. If you're talking about special abilities exactly like M, F, and T's, they would have to be sped up to match the natural in-game speed since they all slow down time. Then there's the obvious balancing issues that comes with special powers, especially if somebody had Trevor's rage in a deathmatch.

Michael's would be useless, unless the ability gets rid of all recoil..

Exactly this but I would think they would slow down the reaction time of one who is using T's ability. Make it like a juggernaut, slow but a bullet sponge and easy to kill with explosives.

They had it in Max Payne 3 death matches you could slow down time.

I don't want that sh*t online

What about "new" special abilities that can help for heists for example ? Super Stealth mode against NPC, faking death, enhanced hackconnect app...

This or:

The character should have been able to pick a perk that doesn't have global change on gameplay, maybe based on his heritage and lifestyle.

 

Like more throwing range for sportsmen, shopping discount for party people, HP boost for hardened criminal, etc.

Very bad idea IMO, thankfully there is zero chance r* will do this

Special abilities were a terrible thing in SP and I'm glad there's nothing like this in online.
