Car + Rain

[K-Bow]

Would you guys like it if a car could hydroplane in rain puddles rather than just slide around?

[BeersInsteadofGears]

I'm indifferent, aquaplaning only really becomes a 'problem' if you're using 'cruise control' in the wet...

[AusSantos]

I wouldn't mind seeing it, would add another element to control in the rain that's for sure.

[MikeyDLuffy]

Something more unpopular than snow perhaps?

[NightTrainCaine]

Option 3, no rain, ever.

 

Just thunder and lightning.

Or if you're poor and you're driving an 88hp 1991 Chevrolet Cavalier sedan on 15 year old tires... or so I've heard.

 

It could be an interesting race obstacle, or oil slicks, etc. but I'm not sure I'd like them all the time in the rain. Hard enough to get the hotknife, futo, moonbeam, et al. moving in the rain as is.

It would suggest depth variations on the road, which would, conceivably, be tricky to do, I assume.

And in that, for the puddle to be enough to yank a vehicle to the side, it would have to be a significantly deep and wide puddle, right?

If you go down into the long overflow ravine where the center is filled with water, you can drive vehicles through it with little resistance (there may be some, not sure).

 

I like the idea a lot, I just don't know how they'd implement it. Again, those puddles would have to be deep.
Another idea would be potholes or maybe random junk in the road (tree limbs, mattresses, animals, etc.) lots of possibilities.

The puddle idea would also be a great tactical option when being chased, too!

I like the part were your mixtape got into the poll about cars, rain and hydroplaning OP, i guess you should be the next eminem, hit me up with dat dope ass mixtape maine

 

Anyway ive been thinking about this for quite sometime... would be very cool if your car loose traction and slowdown a bit at the wheels hydroplaning...so lets say you hit the puddle really fast only from one side of the car, it would create a huge drag and push you towards the puddle so you need to contersteer kinda like real life and the system they put into forza 6

 

Ofcourse it wouldnt need to be so radical, just this but dumbed down

I've had enough aquaplaning in GTA online already:

 

# Controller batteries run out = full on aquaplaning into a fence.

# Serious lag = full on aquaplaning into a fence.

It rarely rains in L.A anyways, get rid of that stupid f*cking weather condition.

 

Ruins everything when it starts raining.
