Polaco Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Actually, many alcohol drag cars, like the gasser type this is somewhat based after, don't run radiators or any type of cooling system at all. Edit: Also, the actual car this is based after does not have a radiator in the front, iirc it is in the trunk of this car or something. It is a bit easy to understand the point of having a radiator, but what is the point of not having one? Weight reduction? Or less engine effort running water pump, etc? Or keeping the engine warm, etc? I mean you could easily blow it up, it will be like 1 pass Drag car. I said alcohol dragsters. Alcohol fueled cars run signifigantly cooler than gasoline vehicles. No need for a cooling system since the car won't overheat running on alcohol for such a sort distance especially. The burn is much cooler. Oh yes, makes it reasonable then. Thanks.

m2roadwarrior Posted October 17, 2016 Share Posted October 17, 2016 Well, we don't have to gas up any of the other vehicles so gettin alkeyhaul shouldn't be a problem!! Looking forward to the new tornado regardless!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riotvision Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Well, we don't have to gas up any of the other vehicles so gettin alkeyhaul shouldn't be a problem!! Looking forward to the new tornado regardless!! Always thought it would be fun if you had to tho. There should be a fuel meter that you have to pay attention to or you run out of gas and have to call a tow service. You'd have to go off radar in public sessions to go to the filling station or people would blow you up. I actually had a free mode enemy hide behind a gas pump once lol. With all of R* other money burning tactics to make you go broke I'm surprised having to pay for gas isn't one of them. Also would give the electric cars some uniqueness, although I suppose then you'd have a battery meter and have to garage for an amount of time to recharge maybe. I'm kind of surprised none of the new bikes are electric or even hybrid. Since most of the top companies are either in production with or currently testing concepts. Even Harley has an Electric now right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustinR512 Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Thank you very much Commander and Joonas, those are perfect. If anyone looks at those and doesn't think the Shotaro is a C-01, they're blind.The Shotaro is not a C-01. I'm not blind, and it's painfully obvious to me that they are not the same. It may have strong influences in its design from the C-01...but it is not a C-01. It is a Shotaro. I mean, you do understand that "similar to" is not equal to "the same as", right? You do understand that "a design inspired by" does not equal "the same design as", right? You can make your argument all day long about how this part or that part are clearly based on something else, and you're not wrong, because you're giving your opinion. But as soon as you say this thing is that thing when it so obviously is not, well then you're just wrong. No Use For A Name 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as soon as you say this thing is that thing when it so obviously is not, well then you're just wrong. Well duh, it's its own design. But it very clearly has an analogue in the real world that inspired it. Do you look at the Dominator and think it doesn't look anything like a Mustang? No, it's not the exact same design. That's the whole nature of GTA vehicles, they're knockoffs that include design features from other models or different generations of the same model. But many of them have a clear "primary" influence of what vehicle they're supposed to represent the closest. The Dominator is quite obviously supposed to represent a Mustang in the GTA world. The Shotaro is supposed to be the GTA equivalent of a C-01. That should be apparent from just looking at the two next to each other. Design is not pure opinion; there are objective similarities in body lines and proportions and design details. That's the last I'm saying about it, because I cannot comprehend how someone could look at those two photos and not see how similar the bikes are.

nargris Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Looks like we will get 3 next tuesday and the remaining 3 after that as part of halloween. My guess will be the shotaro, youga classic and the sanctus will be halloween due to their tv/movie and general themes (tron, scooby doo and ghost rider).

Leaving the tornado and the two remaing bikes next week The Tuesday after next is November the 1st, Halloween will have been and gone. If we don't get any today (and time's a ticking away) then next Tuesday will be the last one before halloween, so i think the sanctus and whatever else the consider halloween themed will be next week as part of a build up week.

Non Funkable Token Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 IIRC there are 2 adversary modes to come: 1 Halloween themed and the Tron themed. I guess the Sanctus and Tornado will come on 25th with the Halloween AM. Esskey and Vortex will come on 1st and finally Shotaro and Youga on 8th with the Tron AM.

Polaco Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 (edited) So, while some get disappointed by not having new releases today, I'm glad: more time to make money. I'm not interested on that Shotaro. I really wish we could have something fast but more realistic, and beautiful too. Like a MV Agusta, Aprilia or Ducati. Now, about Halloween: well, IMHO (but that's just my opinion), the Sanctus and Youga Classic will come together as a part of Halloween "update". Meanwhile one is a skull-themed bike, the other one has a....Mystery Machine paintjob! Mystery...Halloween...I think you got it. Yeah yeah, too few, compared with the last Halloween, when we had 2 different Horns, 2 great cars and etc, but better than nothing. I only wish the Youga Classic interior was more detailed, a 60's interior, not a generic 2000's interior.

That will never make it to market because it's a self driving motorcycle and people don't own motorcycles to be a passenger.
