Bikers update out now!

[GTA-Biker]

i dont understand why people are so hyped about this

 

they are just going to make some liveries and some rims to the old IV bikes

We're hyped because some of us really love motorcycles.Since we currently have only 5 choppers/cruisers/touring bikes in GTA Online (maybe 8,if you count Thrust which is a power cruiser/sport touring bike, Gargoyle which is an Indian Scout turned into hillclimber and Cliffhanger which is a vintage Harley Davidson race bike) out of which only two have decent customization (Daemon and Bagger),and barely any clothes that can pass as a biker gear,I'm happy whenever we get anything related to bikes and bikers.Getting all the new stuff we saw on those pictures,and who knows what other stuff which wasn't shown,will make this the best GTA Online DLC so far in my opinion.

some people just can't see beyond themselves i'm afraid. I'm not into biker stuff but i'm excited for the guys, like you who have been waiting years for this.

[AUScowboy]

People love the game and the free content (which is always A1 or close to it). I would be worried if the players WEREN'T hype AF for a new GTA update..

 

Can't wait for the trailer. The last few have been put together really nicely. That FaFf trailer had me sh*tting bricks!

[m2roadwarrior]

If they're clever, in addition to choppers and sport bikes, they'll add a couple more scooters and do a mods vs rockers quadrophenia kind of thing! Gta has lots of older players that would get a kick out of that.

Are you a mod, or a rocker?

I'm a mocker!

Dear lord, the post-ironic le maymay hipsters will start Faggio MCs and brag about their quirkiness to reddit and gain thousands of upvotes, I can already see those sh*tposts being formulated the moment the update is out.

Exactly. If you've been in the MC community for more than 2 seconds, you'll understand that the 'MC riding faggios' is a joke done to death. It's kinda like the 'your mom' jokes in how common it is.

Last time Rockstar advertised a "Coming Soon"...

 

Was May 9th; for Cunning Stunts.... which they then released another "teaser" with the Video Trailer for it, on July 7th.

 

Then the Cunning Stunts update was released July 12th. Almost a full two months after the "Coming Soon" announcement.

 

Hence why I still think they might be shooting for a Halloween Release for this Biker's update, and will probably give us a Halloween Themed Lost Slam Van with it.

While you're correct about May 9th, you're forgetting that the Finance and Felony update arrived June 7th. Cunning Stunts may have been announced in May with F&F but it was advertised as a post-F&F update.

Hmmm, maybe it will be released only after the halloween dlc(something that is not confirmed to come, but it seems pretty likely.

No way not after Halloween, definitely mid-October. May 9th to June 7th was just a couple days shy of one month. Since Bikers was officially announced on Monday, September 19th, my prediction is Tuesday, October 18th, the absolute latest. They'll package the Halloween content in the Bikers update and let it unlock as the day approaches as with all holiday-themed content.

 

I do hope I'm wrong about a 10/18 release as I would like to see Tuesday, October 4th instead, or even the 11th. I'm sitting on $35M and I can't wait to start spending it. And there really better be more garage space to purchase or dedicated motorcycle garages since selling a car to make room for a bike is ridiculous to me.

Im a bit scared, because the image only shows custom choppers, but i like sport bikes too, not big changes but cool paintjobs would be nice.

The Los Santos Faggio Alliance of the Grand Senora is quite displeased by this comment.

Yes, but only requiring one download. The Halloween DLC, like other holiday-themed DLCs, were never an independent update, at least in the last 18 months that I've been playing GTA Online and watching the R* Newswire. The special items of the holiday theme are always hidden in the most recent DLC and unlock on a specific date, usually a week ahead of said holiday. We know they're hidden because key players in the GTA community find the code for such items in the DLC just waiting to unlock. Independence Day items were hidden in the June 7th release of Finance and Felony. Christmas items (and Valentine's Day items if I remember correctly) were hidden in Executives and Other Criminals from last December. Last year's Halloween items were hidden in the Lowriders update which debuted last October.

[joedelta]

If it don't happen before the last week of October. Pray it happens before Christmas. We already know we will get turnables for those two holidays. So hopefully we get this one and a small one. My prediction is first or second week of oct. Hopefully on the 4th for my birthday

My little fingers tell me that those missions (if there are) will be directed by the famous biker Johnny K

Like lamar with low riders, and in those missions we will meet in a way or another the famous biker hater Trevor P. That's all my little finger says

[Neo 2708]

With a max of only 8 club members, i hope R* gives us a sprinkling of NPC club members in and around the club house, just like The Lost MC have hanging around outside their club house.

This would not only make your club look better/bigger but also would be handy having the extra fire power if some random player comes sniffing around looking for a fight.

Anyone else noticed new empty gun spaces on the wall of the ammo shop?

That'd be cool, maybe we'll see

how meth was slowly weaking him, eg. his downfall before being killed by Trevor

. It was weird seeing that sudden change in his character. From a tough soab to a weak addict.

I'm kind of afraid that MCs will work like organizations do, where if the president logs off, you get kicked out. it doesn't inspire cooperative play. it inspires you to found your own club just to have permanent access to amenities.

I really hope so too. NPC players would make the game feel much more realistic and add another dimension to gameplay. Having to play with 7 other real, live players means inevitably having some randoms mixed in, and I certainly don't want that.

It would be cool if the crew leader could design a few NPC crew members in character creator (similar to creating a player's character,choose facial features and hairstyles, but also choose tattoos and make a few different outfits they would wear).A group of those NPC crew members could hang out in and around the clubhouse and protect the nearby players in their crew if they got into a fight with NPCs or other players,maybe even let us recruit a few of them as backup.I doubt we'll ever get that option,but I would like if R* would make it,it would give us the feeling of being in a gang,just like when playing as CJ in SA or Johnny in TLAD.

Hell, take it a step further and treat it like single player heists where you can hire members to help you and expand that help to contact missions etc...

Since then.

[Dangerous and sad]

How many spaces are there on the wall in ammunation???

[Hellbendzor]

I'm wondering if the MC will really be pushed to interfere/counteract in CEO-stuff...

 

But most of all, this DLC will rock. I'm curious how they'll implement the in-club motorcycle tuner... As some have mentioned, will there be an extra garageslot or will the clubhouse have a dedicated attached motorcycle garage, where the freshly tuned motorcycles will be stored. Personally I prefer that, above another clean white 10 space garageslot...

 

We'll see... And the fact it isn't release yet, means we all have more time to earn money... Somehow I feel this DLC is gonna be one of the more expensive DLCs yet... And nop this time around, like in FAFF 20 million isn't gonna cut it... The last few weeks these discounts are so tempting to spent money, so Rockstar is most definitely readying up the players for a Sharkcard spending spree... :-)

8-player Lamar-style missions confirmed

I actually want it to be this way

I hope not. We have worked AGAINST the Lost so much. They've stolen cargo from some and we've worked with Trevor to kill the Lost MC. I despise the Lost MC and absolutely hate Johnny K. Pretty sure someone else will direct the missions.

[OfficialTwiggz]

Not gonna happen, but I'd like a 'Bikers lobby', a lobby dedicated to bike work. Assuming they make it similar to the free mode or warehouse work, teams of 8 would work together, or against each other depending on the mission. One team owns one clubhouse, the other owns....well the other. Defend your title, cruise around, or work together.

Exactly. If you've been in the MC community for more than 2 seconds, you'll understand that the 'MC riding faggios' is a joke done to death. It's kinda like the 'your mom' jokes in how common it is.

 

 

So does that mean that "Your Mom is a member of a faggio MC!" so common it becomes rare due to relativity?

 

Seriously, theme is such a personal thing in this game. People are all up in arms about are we supposed to be bikers now?!!? I thought we were supposed to be high-end CEO's?!?! It's your freakin' character, do what you want. If we're supposed to be criminals in this game, why care if we were too posh before to dress like bikers and and form an outlaw MC chapter. Why care if some people want sports bikes? (It's R* there's going to be sports bikes, because in a biker-themed update, there has to be something faster and more expensive than the current top bike. That;s just the way it is.)

 

THe fact is, even if you're a 1%er biker IRL, you're a a bunch of pixels in the game, and IRL you've got a reason to wear the same colors logically to mark your territory and your group, in the game, not so much. But maybe the 1%er finally gets to have his character look more like him. Okie dokie fine.

 

Personally, I like the idea of this DLC . . . eventhough I'm still on last gen so I'll be getting it later . . .because getting my fiancee and I the hell out of Texarkana IRL is more important. . .but I have been looking forward to something like this for quite some time. Mainly I plan to do more of a heavy metal style but hell yeah, I'll do the biker/chapter missions/events/whatever, just like I'm going to do the CEO missions/events/whatever. Hell, if this game gave me gta$, vehicles, clothes and weapons to be an angry clown or a psycho dentist or what the hell ever, I'd do that to.

 

Why?

 

Because I love this f*cking game, that's why. I'm not a CEO or a biker IRL, and guess what, you probably aren't either? Oh, you are? Cool, wanna do a heist? Can I get an impromptu for my daily objectives?

 

Instead we get waaaaaaaaaaaaahh there's going to be too many sports bikes!!! Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahh there's not going to be enough sports bikes. Can we wait until the DLC comes out and then get all disappointed and butthurt that we didn't design the DLC ourselves? (Oh and shark cards . . . we're always butthurt about shark cards)

 

Damn . . . Y'all actually got me to use the word "butthurt," At least I didn't say "bromance." Damn.

 

But seriously it's a game. We don't all look like the same kind of criminal. I mean, it's such a problem, isn't it? I mean, you can't see a posh high-end bank robber, a crazy psycho redneck methhead, a stylish young gangbanger, and a computer geek getting together to commit crime . . . nobody would be interested in a game like that . . .oh wait.

 

Seriously we're not our characters. I don't rob banks and kill people and have 20mil IRL. . .

 

. . . then again, I don't get shot to death several times in an evening, so there's that.

 

Smile, get hyped, and get ready to ride. It's just a game. It just happens to be a good one.
