Why R* Nerfed Tanks but Not Jets

Recommended Posts

The lazer has already been nerfed.

 

1. The HUD sucks and the RWR is a joke. Worst HUD I've ever seen in any aircraft. I need more to work off of other than pitch, speed, and altitude.

2. The compass headings in every aircraft in the game are also screwed up.

3. I can't jettison the external fuel tanks on the P-996 which would free up some drag, which also brings up the fact that its top end is 175-180 knots.. wtf? It should be more like 600 knots.

 

The jets were nerfed from the very second they were placed in the game.

After 2-3 kills in a jet, pilot gets 5 stars and keys after them. Pilot is given a time window where if they jettison and grab another jet, the stars are still given.

 

There ya go.

why put 1 item in a game that apart from pure luck is untouchable it just doesn't make sense ,

You just suck at combating jets.

 

weapon v any weapon gives anyone a chance

Lol NO it doesn't.

I'm gonna start complaining about that type of asinine sh*t.

People who use Combat MG shouldn't be allowed to, because I only want to use a pistol. It's not fair. I have to change my tactics or use the same weapon as him in order to kill him. Nerf the Combat MG!!!!

 

That's how people who bitch about jets sound.

 

To use a popular saying here.... "get good".... or get dive bombed like the little ants that you are.

No one would ask this question if they had of experienced the original tank. Jet are no problem at all compared to those days.

What kind of lobbies do the bitching-about-jets people play in anyway? I haven't gotten killed by a jet pilot in a while. I'm estimating, 1 in 20 lobbies I join have a guy in a jet. I do 1 of 2 things. I either switch lobby or I get in a jet and fight him in his weapon of choice.

 

Buzzards kill me more than jets anyway. Nerf the Buzzards!!!!!!

Jets exist to ensure tanks never rise up in pubs ever again like in the days of old.

But who will ensure that jets stop griefing others (including you)?

I don't have an issue with Jets... it adds to the whole violent universe that is, GTA5...

 

Like someone already said... If you got a problem, get up in the air and take care of business with equal weaponry... Sometimes you just meet better killers and then it's just shrug it off and move on, or switch sessions... Or sent over a mugger or merryweather to do your bidding... Lots of things available to get even...

Non Fiction

Because any moron can hop in a tank and start blowin sh*t up.

This. ANYONE was able to own the whole lobby because it took damn near like 10 RPG's to destroy a tank. I can't lie, the feeling that you would get back then after destroying a tank was wonderful. However, that was after being killed 3-5 times by the tank scrub 1st. Jets really didn't become a problem until the Tanks got tweaked.

No he's not God. He was just dealing with someone who is trash in a jet. Helicopters don't stand a chance against a decent jet pilot.

Okay so short of hiding, going passive, or leaving the session, I have to stop whatever I'm doing to grab my jet and fight them?

 

Absolutely not. Give me a homing launcher worth a damn and we wouldn't have the jet griefers as often to begin with.

How about you all stop complaining about being killed in FR? Seeing as how it has zero relevance to anything that even matters.

I always assumed it was because like 95% of all tanks were bought with hacker cash from holiday 2013 where as Hydra's were not.

So like, they figured less people would get pissed about Tanks getting nerfed cause they didn't actually work for them.

 

Also a LOT of people bitched about Tanks because practically everyone had them at one point.

If they added the Hunter would that help?

For me? Absolutely. I can already take down a lot of jets with the paper mache Savage. Add that, and it'll be over for any jet that wants to bother me.

Sorry but GTA is not a jet simulator game :whistle:

These threads remind me of when they added explosive rounds to the annihilator in IV.

 

 

 

It was funny then too.

as a hardcore IV player i can tell you the disappointment was real when i bought the annihilator and didnt have explosive rounds. Edited by CarimboHanky

Other jet pilots... or someone who is actually good at combating them from the ground. And no, don't use a stupid HL against me. Because I'll just do an erratic loop. So it's even hard for snipers to get me down, because I don't follow a path when avoiding the HL... like some other pilots do when they just start going in a circle.

 

Best thing to do to avoid getting killed while in a jet... remain unpredictable.

And what's a snipers worst nightmare? Unpredictability!

People on this forum don't seem to understand what metagaming is, or that when such a large crowd of people complain about the exact same issue for so long, that means there's typically a problem at hand.

 

Homing launcher and sniper are worthless. It takes you three mags to get me smoking or 10 rockets to stop my movements for maybe a couple minutes. I can get another jet for $200 with no cooldown and can go passive to get it, dodge a killing shot that'd kill me, and then come out and strafe a street, killing things I can't even see because the blast radius on the stupid explosive rounds are so needlessly powerful. If you've got billions from a transfer, like many of my jet griefer friends do, it doesn't matter how many T20s you pull out.

 

This is not a case of "get good" and it never has been. This has been a legitimate problem for more than a year and you people have no way to counter these arguments besides "passive mode" and "get good". That's not balance. This isn't balanced. Literally the least they could do is make the blast radius on the cannons smaller and people would stop complaining. It'd also take skill to actually use the jets against ground combatants and wouldn't make any kind of difference in dogfights.

Tank should seriously get buffed.

Homing Launcher should also get buffed to use rockets that much are faster than the Hydra

 

That way you can kill the tank with a hydra and get killed by a player that is using the homing launcher.
