BLIMP (as a property)

[Jammsbro]

I think blimps would make it more fun to watch jet griefers have to dodge our blimps. A yacht can't be blown up so neither would our blimps.

 

Seriously, put five blimps in the sky above LS and jet griefers have to work way harder.

Well come on, wtf are you going to use an armed blimp for?? Its a load of crap.

 

Yachts, yeah rich people have them, living the highlife makes sense, For the record,a tank was stolen in California in the past, so criminals having them, sort of once again fits in with real life, like you mentioned. Armed Blimps however... Not only is it pointless, and it floats in the sky, which is still a load of crap, that thing should be able to be shot down. Having a massive object in the water that is invincible is fine to an extent, but in the air?

 

Your essentially putting a house in the air, now imagine, lets say... idk, Maze Bank, actually no... Eclipse Towers, now just imagine that, but floating in the air, doesnt make much sense, It cant stay up there forever, where as Yachts, well... they have to stay on the water, this whole Blimp stuff is a load of crap, and 24 hours on your still going on about it... Jeez, tell me, how long have you been playing Grand Theft Auto games for? Because last time I checked, having Armed Blimps legit is not in any other GTA Game, and for obvious reasons... Its a terrible idea and just makes things worse. You (Not specifically you, but the group of you that want this for whatever reason) also go on to say you want runways and helipads and sh*t on them... Well judging that you lot also want it to be at full altitude, surely in all fairness, the wind and the air up there would be pathetic to have people, walking around on a flight deck that high... What else you want up there? a Portal to the UFO's or... a punch of parachutes for you to just bail off of it for no apparent reason?

 

and back to your point about Criminals in CA, well come on, your a criminal, supposedly working in some dark underground network with a ton of other criminals, [GTAO Players & AI] so if your really rich, and you have 'contacts' you have access to the black market, stuff like that to an extent gets easy for a game to pull off. Yet you want a massive [i dont even want to imagine how big this has got to be] Blimp that is LITERALLY almost all just air.... hence why it SHOULD be VERY EASILY destructible in the game... What makes it even worse is, as you said, Blimps are already in GTA... so why on earth has a blimp gone from "4-9 sniper shots - blown up" to "invincible"? See, its makes no sense whatsoever.

Not to mention that this idea is 100%, I CAN GUARANTEE, NOT THE WAY FORWARD for GTA Online.

Why would they dodge the blimp? If the blimps are "indestructible" they wouldnt be going for the blimps would they you idiot, they would be going for people in planes and helis and on the ground, and if a Jet is being targeted by the blimp and the jet is trying to take out a plane or heli, the blimp will take the plane or heli out too... Your point was completely invalid judging you want it to be "Invincible"

I'm going on about it becuase this is a topic about it?.....Way to argue in circles. I've already given things that players wanting an airship could use it for. And why say "For the record a tank was stolen in....." when I already put that a tank was stolen in California. I mean, really? You have to put something that was already mentioned on the record? And look at who's going on for over 24 hours trolling something they hate. If you hate it so much, then why not post that you don't like idea and move on? Let other people who are interested in discus it instead of pointlessly arguing in circles with you about them? And when did I ever say that there'd be a flight deck on top of the airship? At the most there'd be a hatch on top for players to enter via parachuting on or landing another aircraft on top of . (Which you can already do in story mode with the atomic blimp) The airships planes would likely be suspended underneath. (Even without studying airships, if you've seen UP!, Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, or The Rocketeer, etc you'd know how the developers could implement it.)

 

And this isn't just sticking a house in the air nonsensically. Besides, why does the fuel for the suddenly matter when fuel for all other vehicles in this game suddenly does matter. If you really need a explanation, then the airships likely landed and is refueling when the player's offline. Not only that, but once again there's a blimp in story mode that never lands, so you might want to complain to the developers that it's unrealistic that the Atomic Blimp stays in the sky. While you're at it you should inform them that the Yachts all wrong because something like that should easily sink after getting hit a by a missile. Why does every other boat in the game go from being destructible in a few sniper rounds or one explosion to suddenly having an indestructible boat? By your logic the developers have already added nonsensical things to the game. And guess what? The Yacht wasn't the first indestructible vehicle in the game. The train went from being destructible to indestructible online and offline for no reason.

 

Also why would adding in an apartment in the sky, to compliment all the land ones, and the new sea ones, mean this is taking GTA: Online in a new direction? Did adding Yachts to GTA:Online suddenly take it in a new sea based direction instead of land based one?

 

Oh, and it doesn't appear like you've been playing GTA for that long. How many things weren't in past games that were suddenly added. Why add a jet pack and VTOL jet to San Andreas when it wasn't in Vice City? Why add a helicopters and working planes to Vice City when they weren't in III? Why add a broken plane, and boats to III when they weren't in I or II? Why add the ability to swim, parachute, dual wield, free aim, 3rd person, character wheel, boats, aircraft, casino drug dealing, etc? I could go on and on about the things that didn't exist, and were added to the GTA franchise with new installments. Guess what? GTAVI will have things added that V or it's predecessors didn't have. If the developers thought like that it would have been: "Hey, lets add in a VTOL!" "A VTOL, are you nuts!? That's not what GTA's about!! We've never had that in a previous games, so get that horrible idea out of here!! Play one of those military aircraft sim games if you want that!! GTA is about criminals, this would ruin the GTA franchise and make it GT Military Flight SIM A!!!" or " Hey, lets add dating/having to exercise/eat/part time side jobs to the game." "Add dating/exercising/part time jobs to the game!?!? Are you mad!!! This isn't the SIMS, get out of here and go work for them!! Those things have no place in GTA!! GTA is about criminals doing crimes, not living out their lives and having to manage things!!!! Besides criminals don't work doing food deliveries, driving taxis, valet cars!! And being a paramedic/cop!!! How crazy are you1?!?!? This is a game about CRIMINALS, not hey let's be a criminal that feels like dressing up as a cop and doing good things!!! No one would enjoy that, and it would take GTA into a horrible direction and ruin the franchise!!!! Who wants to buy GTA: Virtual Life? " The series would have stagnated and got repetitious having the same thing over and over without new things being added to mix it up and make it fresh.

 

Again an airship would just be a new thing to own in GTA:Online, not a re-invention of GTA as you make it out to be. Just like the Yachts that gave new things to the water, this would add things to do/see high in the sky, which for the most part is as empty as the oceans. They could add a new VIP Work equivalent of Piracy Prevention, but it would be to prevent another player from reaching the top entrance hatch to the airship. Or if you're being chased by a jet, instead of flying down to sea level to your yacht, fly up above the clouds to your airship. Or enter your Airship and invite other players on board. From there they could admire the view, get drunk and skydive, or hop in one of the new plane variants that come with it. Such as the armed variant of the Mallard, the Rustler (from GTA:SA) or a new version of the Crop Duster, equipped with the Rustlers guns and a rear turret for the co-pilot.

 

Of course.... there's always the possibility of owning one of those secretive FIB UFOs that could work as an apartment..... but that would be for a different topic.

Sounds like a silly idea to me

[SleepingDude88]

In my head, i can only imagine it going down one way.. Literally..

Blimp Parts everywhere, millions dead, advertising destroyed.

Or better...arsenal gear

Arsenal...Gear?

This idea is just soo goddamn stupid, OP why don't you just go play and post these stupid ideas on the forums of Just Cause 2 or 3, or even Saints Row 4? You'd be welcomed there because this idea would make a lot of more sense in those games since it's just way too over-the-top.

 

And I can't believe this thread is being taken seriously, Jesus...

I don't really post many ideas for the game. I'll generally stick wishes in the wishlist thread. It's a fun idea to mull over.

ok to get a blimp you will need to be a hacker and then you get on it and that's it.
