Why are bad sport lobbies necessary in game like GTA?

[Arrows to Athens]

 

 

Most kids are sh*t at the game and terrible at killing.

Give it a rest will ya?

Once it becomes false I will.

 

False what?

[PoeticWhisper]

This is the reason I play alone. GTA Online public lobbys are just a free roam free for all. You can't do sh*t half the time you're in Los Santos. You can hardly interact with other people because they will spray you to death and then when you re-spawn run you over with their car and kill you again. I honestly would find 0 enjoyment out of killing a person over and over again unless you were seriously asking for it. Which 99.9% of the time, they don't. People just kill people minding their own business and then proceeds to torment them. And don't go off saying "join a new lobby if you can't handle it" because it'll happen there too.

What R* had in mind for GTA Online is the exact opposite that we have right now. The community are a bunch of trolls and douchebags who can't have any fun unless they're murdering other players. There is a deathmatch mode, but they don't play that for some reason. I hate the PVP in this game, because it's a game of chance, not a game of skill. I view GTA Online as more of a PVE experience and you can tell that's what R* was going for when you watch the trailer. But that's not what happens. Half the time when doing mission with randoms, they are trolls who will either do the mission, get payed, go to free roam and spawn kill you. Or they will kill you in the mission and then do it themselves, or just leave.

I don't care if this is how some people feel GTA "should be" because it's purely objective. I feel that even with the current constraints, griefers and trolls still get away with too much. If you really want to play like that, just get put into bad sport and play there. get your friends in there too.

But what do I care, I play alone anyway, because randoms ruin my experience.

I can't go AFK for 2-3 minutes without a cheeky level 60 douche approaching me and gunning me down. Then he proceeds to drive off. It's like the moment they see a stationary dot on the map they get attracted by it and instantly have the need to kill.

I think people who go on killing sprees in free mode are sad little kids with no friends or life to be honest.

You have lots of options if you want to kill people: Deathmatch / Adversary mode / Capture, yet you choose to do it in freemode where you get no money and very little RP.

Basically, you are just wasting your time.

My 50 cents

You have a very ignorant point of view. So you're telling us, that if you go around on killing sprees on a video game where you are a killer, you're a f*cked up kid with no life? So, If you role-play as a cop and hangout with your friends like happy crazy people on a video game where you're suppose to be a criminal, you must be a confused 30 year old immature, virgin, nerd with no life? You see what I did there, smarty? Just because you have a certain play style, doesn't mean that your life is anywhere equivelent to it. And for the last time, just because I'm a total psychopath in freemode does not mean I don't do jobs and missions. How could I have I ever got to a rank 192, and gotten all my weapons and cars by staying in freeroam. Use your brain. We're not supposed to be criminals. We're supposed to be whatever we want. But oh well, what do you know about GTA Online? You most likely lose 99% of the gunfights you start.

I spend most of my time in freemode wars and you are 100% correct.

evenknow we are hired to kill, destroy and rob, you think we are not supposed to be criminals?

You only kill people, destroy and rob if you want. Some people like to walk around listening to ridiculous NPC conversations; others like to ride a taxi as a passenger. It's not like we'll be punished for not being a criminal.

[Blasterman4EVER]

Isn't this game about crime, and chaos? Why should we care if a bunch sensitive cry babies, or children can't take getting killed, or getting their crap blown up in a video game. It's not like we're cheating. We're doing what you're suppose to do in a game like this. Why the hell is Rockstar, encouraging us not to cause mayhem when they give us so much weapons and arsenal that kills? So we can show the weapon's colors off? What they need to do is take off passive mode, and get rid of the bad sports lobbies. If the whiners don't like it, go into an invite only session or play World of Warcraft .

Man, you are really, really, annoying and overbearing, and your views on things are just screwed up. Let it go. I can't imagine how miserable it is being you.

while in freeroam you can be whatever you want but being a criminal is our main purpose in the game, after all whats the first thing we get when we land in los santos? a gun handed to us by a gangbanger!

Who knows if they didn't want some flowers instead?

 

Anyways... Bad sport lobbies will never be changed.

[shadowoperative]

If they want flowers they are playing the wrong game.

like 95% of the game and game modes requires you to kill either players or NPCs in order to progress so it does revolves around killing!

Ok.

[PoeticWhisper]

You are never forced to kill another player, not in free roam anyway. They do make it tempting with bounties, but you are never forced. I agree that it's a game about crime, but that doesn't mean it's a game about free roam death-matching. Some people like the avoid people who just murder everything, and tbh it's f*cking annoying when I'm off by myself doing what I want and some asshole in a jet comes and blows me up, or he comes up from LS to Paleto Bay just to kill me, then proceed to spawn kill me. There is 0 objective in doing so. You're literally just doing it to be an asshole. If that's what GTA is to you that's fine, but it's not to me and it's not to everyone. This thread could've and should've been "No bad sport cause it's GTA, it's all about killing" "Well in your opinion it is" "well sh*t, good thread." GG no RE whatever.

You never have to be out of passive mode and people who participate in freeroam killing (like 99.9% of us) are not assholes. Enjoy the game though.

Exactly, you could only kill people with a bouquet of flowers in San Andreas.

Just because I don't have a problem with wasting people on video game, doesn't make me insane. For f*ck sake, man. Why don't you guys learn what a sociopath is. Because only a over-protective mom or a person with brain damage would call a person who goes on rampages in a crime infested open world jungle a Sociopath.

Are you new to GTA? How the hell do you improve your rank, get most of your money get most of your rewards or even progress through the story mode? By looking at the view from Mount Chiliad? You have to rob, kill and do other illegal stuff to earn most of your money. So yes you're suppose to be a criminal. I'm pretty sure you get your ass beat a lot and don't know anything about GTA Online. Because you apparently got GTA Online mixed up with a life simulator.

Why don't you join a DM instead? Make money, instead of wasting money? I don't get it.
