Lobby filtering

I think it would would be great if we had the ability to search for lobbies and allow/disable specific weapons, vehicles, player rank, etc. This way we can play in lobbies with players who play the same way.

Personally, I'd like to avoid jets, sticky bombs, marksman rifles, armoured vehicles and passive mode. I'm fed up getting cheap deaths and then the player stalking me in passive after it, waiting to kill me off guard.

Yes this would be very helpful especially when trying to join a deathmatch. Doesn't look like it is going to happen though at least any time soon. Hopefully it would be included in the next GTA if it isn't eventually added to this one.

Why not start an invite only lobby and invite your friends and crew to come play buy your rules?

 

You'd have to that anyways if you made a custom lobby

That was available in gta4, the problem with it is that it divides the community. You can always start your own invite only lobby

I think it would be much easier to be able to filter options on public lobbies rather than set up a custom lobby and wait for people to join.

The concept of a public lobby is that you have no control over the parameters and everyone is on equal ground.

 

While I understand that some folks want to limit the arsenal at their disposal, I do not count myself among them.

 

I've earned access to these Dogs of War and I'll be damned if anyone is going to stop them from barking.... :)

I ride in Mc's on gta and those are some of our basic rules. Too bad no one follows them lol it would be nice if i could limit weapons in a lobby. Keep it optional of course but in my invite only lobby it would be great to set no pegasus vehicles, no explosives, no sniper or marksman rifles. Also no auto shotty. That way anyone who wants a normal lobby is free to join one, but those of us who prefer weapon restrictions would also have our happy zone.

I agree. I think the concept of earning money in gta is the reason these lobbies don't exist.

GTA 4 was peer to peer game, GTAO (Freeroam) is played on R* dedicated servers.

 

Google the difference and you'll understand why all the customization options are no longer available

It's called invite only lobby. All these threads are exactly the same and have the same answer.

 

Actually no it isn't called an invite only lobby. Currently there are no ways to set restrictions. Try to pay attention here and keep up. Also that comment of your is copy and pasted spam on multiple threads

 

If my reply was spam, so is every stupid thread whining about GTAOL

 

Ahh now we get down to the name calling and the superiority issues. You feel you are above the people making suggestions and came here to "peck" at them. Very mature and reasonable attitude. A thread is "Stupid" because you don't understand/Agree with it very intelligent outlook.

 

Jesus!

What else do you WANT? All trees to break when you hit them? Better looking hookers? Flower lined streets? Rockstar gave you the ability to have an invite or crew environment. If you can't find your version of "GTAO Heaven", get new friends or join a different crew.

All these different personal versions of "GTAO Heaven" are exactly the same threads. It gets quite tiring to see the SOS whining, bitching and what ifs.

 

BTW.... It's a realistic outlook, yet you lack the intelligence to comprhend that fact.

 

Lol you hate anyone with an opinion that much? go ahead get all worked up and I'll sit here and laugh at you. Let people have discussions is that not what this forum is for? Don't want to see it? Well it's self explanatory

 

LOL! I'm not worked up, nor do I hate anyone with a differing opinion. I do find it amusing that you can't adapt your environment when given the tools. Rockstar can barely manage the parameters set now, yet some want to constantly add more silly idealistic parameters to their dream game land.

I just want lobbies where you can't harm other players but can mess around with NPCs. I'm tired of being put in a public lobby after some heist connection error and then always having to drive a mile around the nearest person because they are just going to shoot. If I want PVP I'll go play Quake. And what the hell is passive mode good for if you can be a gunner in the Insurgent while passive and rack up kills like candy?

i love how some asshat told me to Google something as if I had no idea, trying to make some sort of argumentative point. I made an observation and stated a plausible reason for why things are the way they are. Nothing more or less. Google it... STFU.

Only optional thing I would wish for (Not demand cause I could give a fk less if it gets added) Is the option for Police to be toggled on or off. That's really the only thing out there that would be worth a damn.

I meant that if anyone doesn't mind any weapons, vehicles, cops etc then they just search for lobbies without any filters. That way you can use whatever you want. Anyone who does want to avoid certain things could toggle options that they want disabled. I understand it's quite a hefty feature so it would probably be more likely to be in the next gta, if it at all. I know there are invite only lobbies but what I meant was a matchmaking system where you enter lobbies with people who have the same filters enabled as you. I think it would be good to have something like that.

Sounds like a kind idea but I prefer it the way it is. I'm one of those players that rather face players of different playstyles and ranks. The challenge can be a thrill. Sometimes I want police to be turned off, but I deal with it because the other players have to, too.

 

Only thing I'd Really want disabled is passive mode. I'm a high level, but way too many high levels will use jets and whatnot, and they'll go passive the second they die while running to get another jet. And the only way to give them a taste of their own medicine is to do the same cheap, boring sh*t, which isn't fun. If you're a high level you'll get criticized for fighting low levels, but seriously, low levels play more legitimately than high levels these days, which is beyond disappointing.

 

And this:

That was available in gta4, the problem with it is that it divides the community. You can always start your own invite only lobby
