Are New Characters too OP?

[Chloroform]

I'm going to burst your bubble, there has been DLC that is level locked. But I understand why you can't think of it. Your blinded by cash cards.

 

And yes, I support Cash Cards. I have yet to buy any, but if you want to, that's your decision. And since they truly don't give a huge advantage over me, buy as many as you want. I'll keep enjoying this game, and it's free DLC, regardless if you buy them or not.

 

Just curious, what weapon was level locked from an update? I've been over 120 for awile now ( so nothing has been locked for me )

I never stated it was a weapon. The Dubsta 6x6 was a level 100 unlock.

While there may have been other things that could of been level locked, I did like the fact that something was.

Do they have more guns than you? NO
Do they have 10k bullets? NO
Do they have something you dont? NO
Do they have the same HP as you? NO
Do they have access to all the cars you do? NO
Do they have modded cars? NO
Do they have 20 super body armours sitting in thier inv? NO
Do they even know how snack work? probably not if they are true first time players

Should you cry because someone doesnt have to spend 4 days racing to buy a single thing in this game?

Thats up to you. Cry yourself to sleep if you want

New characters may have guns but they don't have shooting, stamina or max health. More importantly, they should make those extra slots available so I can make 4 characters.

I actually feel sorry for them, there was a great sense of achievement and excitement as you earned new weapons and accessories.

The uzi meaning you could now do drivebys and the godlike feeling when you got the assault rifle!

 

Then the shock when you got flattened by a sniper round or a assault shotgun!

[delisue]

To be honest, I understand that high rank characters before updates had to earn their way to buy the weapons and would come as unfair. But really, do you (as a high rank character) want to own low level/noobs just because you have access to better weapons? or because your skills? For me it is a lot more rewarding because of skills.

 

Besides, lets remember that weapons aside, the high level character still has an advantage in health and stats over the noob.

 

I think that no level requirements is a step to the "skill" direction instead of to the "grind" direction. I'm ok with it and I like it.

Back in my days you had to run out like a noob with your stock pistol for confrontations in Los Santos, and a loaf of bread costed a penny. Times have changed.

Lol

Some items should remain level locked,

 

Why? Whats the point..?

 

Otherwise there won't be things to grind for.

 

 

 

You grind money.... Thats the grind in GTA. Not being able to buy things because its rank locked or win locked is not grinding. That makes no sense to me.. And i have two high level characters... Having to earn the right to spend money on things i need simply does not make any sense to me.

[AceThaCreator]

Anyone who thinks that rank is a indicator of skill is the biggest fool of them all. Never take anyone lightly in this game or you will be in for a rude awakening. I do think that they have it easier then the people that started at the jump(2013) but if they can't shoot for sh*t, then those guns will be useless to them.

[manicmechanic71]

I think people are missing the point of level locking items. It's for the sense of achievement plus missions are better balanced with level appropriate weapons.

No Hay Bronco was such a challenge with just a pistol, I remember thinking how much easier it was with the first shotgun!

[GTK0HLK]

as Manic^ said,

the only complaint that can be used against' level locking those weapons, is FM,

if R* would give us the option, then we can have it so only NPC's are kill able(like it used to be with IV),

as for (T)DM's, it should be encouraged to have it on Forcer/+pickups(and maybe if you think its op, which attachments are allowed, or not)

 

im for level locking, cause its more fun that way, you actually feel like you achieved something, and if your a high level who runs fair in a new character, and hunts tints, youd want to deal one hit pistol kills, without having to worry about grief high levels, pulling out those weapons on their new character( a real Low LVL wouldn't know how, but the weapons power lowers the need of skill, so they just need to point in the general direction.

See... I myself am against level locking. In every game...

 

I never feel a since of accomplishment for getting to certain levels to unlock anything.. To me its just a ..`finally got the BS over with`

 

Besides..being high level. I now use my pistol more then ever. Compared to when i was low level and forced to use it.
