"This Car is too hot to modify"

[garvdart]

 

If we are able to steal, mod and keep high priced vehicles then why isn't there a mechanic in the game where our vehicles are subject to theft by others.

 

There in lies the reason.

 

 

The reason is cash cards.. And nothing more

 

Play through 2 heists there's no reason too buy a cash card... ever.

Playing through only two heists doesn't get you enough money to buy many of the vehicles that were released with the Heists DLC.

[elfoam]

I haven't played every heist but in the ones I have played the payments are worse per minute / hour than missions. So that's the reason I'm not playing them anymore, can't be wasting my time on that sh*t. At least when someone dies in a mission you still get your money.

Sure!

 

...but if you can modify any car and put anything in your garage then for realism, the police should be able to track you down and do a raid of your garage.

 

...Then you have to stay away from that garage/apartment for up to 1 game month. If you go back, you can get arrested, go to court, and be sentenced to jail.

 

...Your crew can break you out of jail or you can serve your term there playing mini-games for six game months.

 

...If your crew fails to break you out, they also end up in jail.

 

Fair?

 

Edit: Maybe an option where you can pay up to $1 million dollars for a good lawyer to try to get you off. $1 million gives you the best lawyer and a 95% chance of getting off. $10,000 gives you a Better Call Saul type lawyer with a 5% chance of getting off. Or one of your crew mates can represent you for free.

Problem with this idea and most the others is your are talking about a company that can't fix the broken crew paint system. Implementing something like you propose would take them a solid year coding and they just wouldn't go for it. Edited May 4, 2015 by elfoam

Wow...people still complain about this sh*t ?

Do some heists...seriously....whats 1 milion these days ?

[Quinn_flower]

nope not happening.

 

why becacuse cars are the #1 reason for gta online sales. make any car storeable then that profit will be null and void when the player can say why should I buy this car when i can find it and store it. Thus hurting online profits.

 

which in turn making the dlc not free and we have to pay for each update. no thanks I rather keep it how it is than pay for each update.

They way they charge you would think they actually had a server though instead it's just pear to pear, rockstar have no costs.

[Silver le Belge]

Everyone complains about kush kurds and no one thinks this is also a game balance reason ?

 

Online is also about compétition between players and progression. You slowly get the skills and the money to get better cars. The game would be pretty boring after à while if you can just steal all the cars. It's ok in single player because you are alone in a big world, and you either follow à story or create mayhem. The cars for sale mechanic is similar to the grinding mechanic in a MMO.

You and Choke are 100% correct.

I say the right things... Dont i spit the dopest words?

 

I like the idea of getting a bounty and wanted level when getting in a super car!!!

 

If there were no cash cards then maybe we could sell super cars

[EvilFiend]

 

yeah should be able to steal any cars including other players because this is 'grand theft auto" right...

why do you always have some smartass negative remark to make? nobody likes you troll.

I honestly dont know.

Maybe its the same reason you make the same sh*tty threads every month.

Maybe its the same reason you think your word is more important than everyone elses that use this forum.

Maybe it has something to do with the fact people make stupid suggestions that not only break the game but are borderline retarded.

 

 

Some things on this planet will never be figured out

[All Those Chickens]

It all goes back to money, as almost everybody has said (specifically about Shark Cards).

 

Follow the yellow-brick road...

[EquanoxZ]

I actually wonder why cars like Panto, Warrener or any other DLC car in that price range is purchasable vehicles only. These cars have simular price tags as some other cars that could be sold/insured at LS customs.

[BigJoe_1]

4 pages late but here's my take on this.

 

Since the beginning of GTAO I've considered the whole concept to be pointless, unifitting and genuinely stupid, like it's been said earlier in the thead the game is called Grand THEFT Auto. The game by itself contradicts it's own name and point, we can't steal and keep a car just because it's worth too much, since when was this ever an issue in previous GTA's.

 

There are multiple ways that this could be reintroduced.

 

Make it so that stealing a car worth $100,000 or more requires more than just the skills of your average LSC employee, to remove the tracker you could take it to another mod garage that specializes in rewiring messy engines that have been set up differently, this place could also be the place that (hopefully) in the near future we might be taking cop cars to get modified.

 

Introduce a new system that for high end cars to be successfully stolen and garaged you have to pay the mechanic a reasonable amountto remove the tracker and, like I said above rewire the whole engine. This would cost around 50k and would take about 2 in game days. This ensures that you can't just steal one immediately and the long wait time would be a lot longer than waiting for a purchased car to arrive. Different cars would take a longer amount of time, supers would take 3 days instead of 2.

 

A said previously. Take the stolen car to Simeon at his garage in the docks so his guys can work on it and remove the tracker and anything else that may be need to be taken care of. Personally I don't want this version, Simeon's a cheap douche that looks for any excuse to overcharge you for anything, however I can't say I wouldn't try to overcharge wannabe gangster white kids (Jimmy).

My idea is that people should be able to modify/sell/keep any car class but! when you sell it, it should go for at least 1/4 or half the original price it sells for.

If Rockstar does that they'd be better off returning to the original payout system for missions. Same applies for my idea too.

 

Do you want to get 800 for Gerald and Simeon missions?

No the original payout system that gave you 36k for Rooftop Rumble and 25k for Covoted.

 

 

nobody wants the old payout system. And nobody wants to repeat the same mission all over again. it was impossible to randomly join a job and NOT to get into rooftop rumble. and with nobody i obviously mean anyone with a brain

 

[dewtech]

The high ends spawning online are cheap enough that it makes no sense why you cannot keep em. Most of them aren't even good vehicles for racing. The ones spawning online should be keepable but with a price to remove the tracker (20% of cars value) and then you must re track and reinsure the car which is pricey. When the cars lose insurance glitch happebed i had to buy 125k insurance on an adder. Why does it even have an actual cost in lsc idif you can only buy it and it comes insured?

They have a cost because it's just worked out as a percentage of the cars value, not a set number. Back in the day I had to spend a lot of money re-insuring a cheetah

Car upgrades, houses, clothes (surprisingly), ammo (some players just refil everything when at the matchmaking screen), helicopters and tanks.

There in lies the reason.

 

 

The reason is cash cards.. And nothing more.

 

 

Nothing wrong with cash cards; those are optional. And you dont even get anything unobtainable that other players who didnt/dont use cash cards could get. Only cash. And since the heists, you have of a less reason to blame it on cash cards.

 

 

 

 

Yes... they are optional. But at the end of the day, no matter how you spin in. The reason as to why we can't steal and store higher priced vehicles is simply due to cash cards.

 

 

People seem to think that just because someone mentions cash cards being a reason.. Its due to them being a broke and not playing the game. Or that they are complaining. But the truth is, its the truth.

 

Now, i've played this game for so long. I own 60 pvs, and everything i want. I blow money on nothing half the time. But im not the cash card target.

 

Its the casual players, who play 4-20 hours a WEEK that are main cash card buyers. Not the hardcore players or the grinders or cheaters.

Ya because after two heists you are set for life....right?

 

 

Again, people like you need to stop thinking that just because 'CASH CARDS" are brought up...The the player bringing it up is complaining about it.

 

Simply pointing out the reason is not complaining.

[luisniko]

Just enjoy the 1.5 year-old game in your wisest way.

 

To me, it's stale, so glitch away.

 

The moment I stopped worrying about money and the need to spend time more than I need just to get a cosmetic item felt really great.

 

Wouldn't mind to buy Cash Card if they aren't so jacked up in price.

Lol nobody likes you bro, keep crying and whining about my threads, no phucks given

But Feel free to keep giving my "sh*tty threads" attention though!

 

Says my threads suck, Still comments on them instead of ignoring them. Some people on this planet have no logic btw all my threads become "hot" cause i actually have good ideas, who are you? you dont help this forum community out at all, all you do is troll and get on Everyones nerves.

Hey, R*, let's keep the "Theft" in "Grand Theft Auto" please! Stop forcing your views on us!

Exactly, this is more like "Spend your money Auto 5"

The real criminal masterminds are R* stealing our money

[HEX1GON]

It's not like all cars spawn anyway... The 9F isn't the best Sports (should be Super, Audi R8 is a SUPER CAR, damn it R*), the Infernus isn't the best Super car either. So I don't understand why they can't be storable...

The rare chance the Panto spawns, "too hot to modify" it's a compact! All other compacts are storable. The car is $85K too, I bought one and lost it due to a glitch. R* apparently gave me the GTA$ for it, but never actually got the money...

Yep. All checklists done.

 

Delay Heist till 500+ days. Check! Get more Cash Card sales. Check! Re-release for PS4/X1. Check! Re-release for PC. Check! Delay re-release packs. Check! Play with exclusivity. Check! Some people who preordered don't get bonus money as offered. Check!

Ok, but you failed to address the rest of my post. If you just include that small portion of my reasoning and arguement and your respective answer to this small portion of my post, then you are/would be right and I guess thats why you failed to address the rest of my post. Strip a statement down to its bare bones and separate them, you can provide any response/statement to that small portion of the OP and you will always be right.

 

Btw, Im a hardcore gamer and i use(d) cash cards from time to time, so srry to rain down on your parade. Cash cards are optional and dont really provide unfairness to those who dont. Its not like DCUO where its pay-to-win or pay-to-advance. There is no connection between cash cards and not being able to keep and save high-end vehicles. The ability to buy cars, weapons, clothes, modifications as well as other stuff was R*'s attempt/way to add more longetivity to GTA V and to make it less monotonous.

 

And guess what...they succeeded.

 

 

If you dont agree, then go back and play GTA IV Online and see what I mean.

I don`t get it man.. Im not gonna dig into this like some sort of conspiracy. Im not the crying broke newb whos complaining about prices. Im more the retired GTA players with everything i want. I don`t need or want anything, i have it all.

 

It just is what it is. Cash cards exist... they make a ton of money off it. And the reason why we can`t store higher priced cars is exactly due to the GTA$

 

 

Its not about anything other then that.

 

 

I make a TON of money without even trying in this game. I blow 100-300k on paint jobs for no reason. I don`t give a sh*t about cash cards.

 

But i know full well why certain things are they way they are in GTA O.

Hmm now this...

Imagen you becoming the true heist leader and all those actions being part of a heist you pay 3 others for

You know like 100 000 to 500 000 set up costs...and then see how it goes

Thats a good thing.

I honestly like how starters now can get assault rifles asap....but yea...i dont think starters shoud be able to get everything just like that.

Maybe youre an exeption on the rule but im sertain most people that still think cash cards are an isue along with...well...stuff like this meant to drive up the sales of cash cards are either lazy, poor or only consider freeroaming all the time fun.

Fun thing: if they all changed that kind of stuff we woud see even more grenade spammers, noobs being owned by low levels, super cars and all that kind of sh*t people are tired of.

Even if i woud not moan about it and see the bright side of it, i think there is gonna be a lot of moaning

Feel better about what? The capitalist machine?

In fact it makes things better since I have more to do in the game to waste time.
