Suggested Vehicle Buffs

[Notcher]

The "Dump's" armor needs to be able to take at least two/three rocket or sticky bomb hits, then maybe it wouldn't be such a piece of dump.

 

***Worst $1,000,000 ever spent!!!

 

 

 

...and "Lectro" needs a higher top speed. At minimum it should be on par with the Akuma, and for the price tag, it should've been able to compete with the speed of an Adder. It's a neat looking bike though.

 

The only reason I'm keeping this motorcycle, other than the appeal of it's outrageous acceleration, is the fact that one day it will become rare. Since word is out on how much this bike's top speed sucks donkey balls, nobody in their right mind will spend a million bucks for a fully loaded one. That is an awful amount of money for a cool free roam motorcycle that escapes gunfights only because of it's 0 - 100mph time. If the total price for the bike, along with the upgrade costs were $250,000 GTA dollars, I wouldn't be complaining.

 

***2nd worse $1,000,000 I ever spent***

$750,000 (bike) + $250,000 (upgrades)

I agree the Dump should have tank armor and BP tires.

[ADropInTheOcean]

"But the Rhino IS a tank, it would be unrealistic to make it less powerful!"

 

Alright, then give me a tank that can turn the cannon that fast and has that ridiculous of a fire rate.

[ExplosiveEnergy386]

In Terms of Regular veichles I'd have to say the Sentinel and Dominator. They both feel underpowered when you drive them.

[Trashdog2000]

I agree with the tank. With all the new vehicles from the heists update along with the homing launcher, the tank needs to go back to its original glory. After all, the insurgent can take more damage without being destroyed so the tank needs to be buffed.

. ^This I'm glad someone finally said it. The tank may have been overpowered back in the day but with all the new Weapons and Veichles we got its at the bottom of the food chain. And to be honest it doesn't make much Sense for the Insurgent to be stronger than the tank.

[roboticsuperman]

And there was me thinking this would be about car buffs. The coil! There's a car which needs a buff.

buff the damn speed limit up to 250mph

It won't happen. We would cover more miles in the matter of no time. It would make travel time "unrealistic". Also there was a video about the problems that would happen with increased speeds. I would link the video but all honestly I forgot what it's called. Maybe someone can post the link.

 

thats kinda the point of going 250

The point of going fast isn't to cover vast amount of miles (that's just the outcome) it's to push yourself past your comfort zone. To feel something you never felt before. To embrace something only a select few have. That's the point of going fast.

I agree the Dump should have tank armor and BP tires.

 

doesnt the dump have solid tyres? i really thought it did, if not that sucks.

[999bats]

Penumbra and sentinel need to be on par with the sultan and kuruma etc

Nope. They blow out like any other tire.

[Shaundi.]

Savage should take 4 missiles maximum. Instead of exploding on impact (which is stupid), rotors start to malfunction and engines on fire and you have time to bail out while the helicopter realistically slowly drops to the ground.

 

Tank should be near invincible from the front, however, the back is vulnerable to fire and rockets (ie. molotov cocktails and RPGs respectively).

 

I mean, we stupidly have a tank icon. Bring it back to its former glory.

The tank.

 

Seriously though, ever since it was nerfed to have paper thin armor, we have gotten so many things to prevent ourselves from tank griefing.

 

Horning launchers, Hydras. Even a bigass tank icon on the mini-map!

 

Make the 1,5 million rhino tank 1,5 million dollars worth again. It's been too long with this bullsh*t.

 

 

The tank is already a BEAST.

 

 

People keep calling it paper... Show me paper that can take 1 hit of a RPG let alone 3.

 

 

So many confused GTA players want the tank buffed..

 

 

If the tank gets BUFFED everyone would use tanks. And that would be boring..

 

 

It's not justifiable that a 1.5m tank can get taken out by 3k worth of rockets. Maybe three rockets at the back, okay. But a tank should be able to withstand 5-6 RPGs fired at the front of it. Face it, the tanks armor is underpowered.

 

 

 

Tanks in real life can go down to a single RPG. So its already powerful.

 

 

Its doesn't matter what it costs... OR what the ammo costs.

 

Any 'buff' to the tank would result in free roam turning into World Of tanks GTA editon.... again. We all played that game along time ago.. It sucked.

I agree with the tank. With all the new vehicles from the heists update along with the homing launcher, the tank needs to go back to its original glory. After all, the insurgent can take more damage without being destroyed so the tank needs to be buffed.

The difference is the insurgent doesn't have a one hit cannon and doesn't blow cars up just by bumping into them. If they buffed it back to the original state then the insurgent would be useless and like many others have said free roam would be nothing but a tank filled mess in every session. I personally think it was a mistake for R* to even allow people the purchase things like tanks because now people just expect to have overpowered gear and complain when it eventually gets balanced enough to prevent free roam sessions from being unplayable.

 

If the tank was something you really had to work for like stealing one during a 6 star wanted level for example I would agree, but being able to order a tank I repeat a tank like it's a pizza or something while in passive mode it's fine the way it is.

[Dottie]

The Annihilater needs explosive rounds

The Technical needs BP tyres

The tank needs pre-nerf armour. Its weaker than the insurgent which makes no sense

The thing where any vehicle touches the treads of the tanks explodes needs to be removed

Dump needs to be damn near indestructible

A lot of the planes are too slow and stall from the simplest maneuvers like gaining altitude

Find me one main battle tank post 1960 that is utterly destroyed by one rocket of an RPG-7

Rhino

First of all, I’m going to start with a vehicle that has been long overdue for a buff; the Rhino Tank. Originally this vehicle ruled the streets; none dared to fight it. However, now it is a very weak vehicle. It can be destroyed with absolute ease, something unfitting for a vehicle like the Rhino. The insurgent can withstand more explosions then the tank; but I am not calling for a nerf to the insurgent. Im calling for a buff to the tank. It is far too weak. I would up the price a bit, allow it to withstand about 6 explosives, and maybe, just maybe have the gun on the top useable (of course not even close to the power of the Insurgent or Technical gun.) This vehicle is the only car in the game that needs to be extremely buffed.

Hold up, hold up, hold up - the rhino is fine where it is. The problem lies in the fact that everyone is easily allowed to have so many explosives and heavy weaponry on them at any given moment. Rather than constant buffing, GTA would be a much better place with the simplifying of arsenals.

 

 

Remember, this is GTA. We shouldn't even be able to own tanks in the first place, not to mention the attack choppers and other various ridiculous weapons in the game. Yes, it may be cool, but as I've said in other threads before:

 

 

To simplify the topic:

 

R* should listen to people that care about GTA instead of stupid YouTubers and their armies of 12 year olds.

Or the assholes that think nothing should be added to a game that has been out for a year and a half. Or the dicks that say no, only because they won't use a certain feature. Rockstar needs to listen to the players that want to make this game better. Lots of people stopped playing because Rockstar doesn't listen.

Exactly! But it's not that they don't listen, they just listen to the wrong people. The kind of people that want this game to be the CoD Advanced Warfare of the GTA series. I've been saying for some time, this GTA doesn't feel like GTA (Online at least) - everyone's super rich, ballin' in their luxury apartments and their garages of supers and sports cars, gunning down everyone with enough firepower to rival that of the army. They've completely gotten rid of the concept of GTA where you're a rags-to-riches person who never lost touch with the "rags" part. There's no emphasis or encouragement to have a play style, such as being a biker or a mafia member or a thug from the hood - there's no style whatsoever. Everyone just runs around in that stupid Pogo mask because DomIsLive is some sort of god and that's how the kiddies pay tribute to him.

 

If R* wanted the best for this game, they'd start putting out those themed DLCs like they did for RDR and GTA IV. No more high-life. We need actual themed content; motorcycle clubs, mafias (modern, not like the Valentines update), gangs both like gangstas and like from the Warriors. Something new for crews like a Crew Property where everyone can go and hang out or borrow Crew Vehicles or just meet up or something. Needs more immersion.

Thanks for the feedback guys!

Nothing about the Valkyrie ? I mean In I like the helicopter but just like the savage it needs to take more damage (More than the savage) because you need people handling the guns and the damage and accuracy of those miniguns isn't great, make it at least 2 rockets to be destroyed. It's so easy to shoot down a helicopter with the stinger and get away with it, why not make them stronger, according to patch notes large aircrafts are able to withstand more damage from these rockets but it's not true, at least not in these 2 helicopters.

Ah. Glad you asked. During the 6 day war the tanks used for invasion were the T-34/85, T-54, T-55, PT-76, and SU-100/152. They were all taken down by RPG and fly by wire missiles. Single shot. It's specifically what the RPG 7 was designed to do.

 

Right now, we have LAWs for APV's and MILAN's. MILANs fire a molten spinning rod of metal, and are awesome.

 

But the RPG 7? In real life? It will still f*ck up an older tank, which is what is in the game.

Up Tank armor

Slow movement speed

Make cannon reload longer or make cannon turn slower

[Misanthrope Z]

only thing that needs to be changed is the Karin Technical's lack of bulletproof tires. you'd think they would've at LEAST added that.

 

thing is nothing more than a poor man's HVY Insurgent
