Do you troll in freeroam?

[Urustay Gordov Matt D.]

This is a serious question. I noticed that once i go in free mode my instinct leads me to troll a specific player. Does it happen to you too?Can you control your instincts? And if you troll another player, what are your motivation, other than instinct?.

I think the results of this thread will suffer from social desirability bias.

 

Me ... Uh ... I'm not saying. I just go with the vibes, you know?

[fSpiral]

I like to pick fights with gank squads and crews picking on single players. Its so satisfying hearing these punks screaming into the mics as i pick them apart one by one. Its easy to bait crews because, seriously, how dangerous can 1 person be? They're always so eager to kill you. Its that false sense of security in numbers that usually ends up killing them. I love how vocal people in crews get about dying too. Going so far as shot calling to take me out. My favorite is when they scream "HOW?!" or when suddenly their mics go silent. I know they're in try hard mode at that point. If i can get them to call out a jet i accept my fate and know i've won. Its never not hilarious.

It wouldn't be called "Grand Theft Auto V: Online" if we weren't meant to troll other players in Free Roam.

It would be called, "Mario Party 8," otherwise.

[l Marksman God l]

My main focus in freemode is not trolling but sometimes it's just automatic, specially when there are people screaming on their mics, love hearing their reactions when I spawn kill them; also 100% agree with fSpiral.

[Kyrrari]

My friend and I do the only acceptable form of trolling. We'll go about our own business for hours on end, but the moment that one jackass decides to screw with us then we murder him in every way imaginable until he goes passive or ragequits. Then right back to minding our own business. Kind of like that old saying, "don't poke the bear". Still laughing about the noob who stickied my cargo van. Without a blast radius his aim was so bad I managed to knife him 6 times in a row until he quit. Good times. It's incredible fun to bait in super aggro assholes while calling a mugger on them. Mugger knocks them on their ass and you run up and curb stomp them into paste. Or you run away and as they chase, call in a merry weather airstrike and lead them through it. You'd be amazed how few people realize what that smoke means.
If you want to troll the trolls, you need to get creative.

[Grimoire]

Never.

 

Was never a fan of player killing. I play videogames for fun yeah,but also for a sense of accomplishment..I don't get that for killing random players.

[afriendlyreddot]

Usually I mind my own business with the exception of bounties and persistently red a-holes. Other than that I go out of my way to assure other players I'm not trying to kill them. However if somebody kills me for no reason, like when I'm cruising by or buying ammo? That's when I go super troll mode and start getting real frisky!

[saintsrow]

No, I don't troll in freeroam. Like the OP, I troll in the GTA Forum, so that I get more views.

You gotta love trolls. Their parents never did

[TwistOfLime21]

Not really but if someone is making it their mission to come after me then I'll do the same.

 

Last night I was in a session with another CEO and his two associates. I told him that I'm just here to do cargo missions and that I won't come after them. Shortly after that, all three roll up on me with their turret limo and shoot me then drive off to do their cargo missions. That's when I decided to troll the hell out of them. Placing proximity mines outside their warehouse, destroying their cargo every chance I got etc.

[OBeef619]

If you destroy my cargo load, hell will be bought down on you. Bulletproof Helmet, BST drops, Explosive spam, Insurgant ramming, Hydra flyin and EWO will be abused.

 

Leave me alone and I'll leave everyone else alone.

[chefbrettb]

I own multiple bright colored Pantos with musical horns. So you could say I might just do some trolling.

 

Side note: Still on last gen so it does get pretty dull if I can't find some sort of entertainment.

[*Lola]

Do you troll in freeroam?

No. I don't get enjoyment in bothering others. I'm a friendly person in game and in real life.

[Jammsbro]

I don't troll. This is a game that other players want to play for fun and satisfaction. Why would you troll in order to ruin someones fun. Especially when normal life can be so sh*t.

 

People who troll are low rent and usually either virgins not getting any or people in realtionships not getting any.

 

Either way, wankers all.

[mute!]

No, i dont troll. If I want to kill someone 10x over I do so in a deathmatch. Freeroam, esp. with this new update I like to be able to complete the missions and just go about my business and I like when others do the same.

[M*A*R*I*N*A]

I troll players that chase and hunt me down.

[JON22]

I troll players by taking a nice s-troll past them in passive.

[TeammateHelper]

You can troll in Mario Party 8. What gives you the idea that that game doesn't have trolls? Because it's a Mario game?

[Murdick]

No. I stand in my apartment at the window eyeballing the guys that are waiting outside my apartment to kill me. D:

[The Wandering Hunter]

No

Never

 

f*ck YOU IF YOU DO

 

I prefer griefing

[OptiCog]

I only troll griefing retards, but that's about it. If you're not a dick, I'm very benevolent and very unlikely to attack you unless you attack me.

[Maibatsu545]

I'm not sexually frustrated or insecure so no. I have enough fun playing the game normally.

[Growlmon]

I mind my own business for the most part. Then when someone goes out of their way to try to kill me (I don't really care if they attempt to shoot me with a pistol as I drive by, I'm almost always in an armored vehicle) I make it my mission to give them hell. Not immediately either, since they expect that. I'd just go off on my own business still, grab a heli or something and get on a building somewhat near them and snipe them a couple of times. Then I'd go to zancudo and get the lazer to screw them a couple more times, and for the sake of nostalgia I might grab a tank for a bit too. Issue with the tank is that pretty much anyone that passes by will try to kill you, rather than just drive by without caring.

[CarimboHanky]

sometimes i enter sessions with intentions of playing cool, not griefing, not killing anyone unless is totally needed...

 

but then someone...gets...near...me...my finger...get...itchy...aaaaaaaaahhhh!!!!!

things have been different since the update tho.

Now I want to duel wield again

[Skeve613]

I don't actively pursue people, most of the time at least, but that doesn't mean I don't have myself a bit of fun when it comes to messing with people who come chasing after me.

[Broblab]

I tried yesterday for the first time in my jet. Fail so hard I apologized and changed sessions.

[Sky_Light12]

before F&F update , i was actively trolls player relentlessly with dirty-underhanded tricks . i troll purely out of my satisfactionry

 

but after current update , i rarely because i'm making some cash by selling crates and collecting rare special item

[am30]

Me killing someone in free-mode is not trolling. It's called playing the game as it was designed.

There are no friendly randoms.

 

I trust that clears this up.
