Progen Itali GTB Appreciation Thread


Recommended Posts

Lol we used to get multiple cars for the holiday gift, and this year they release one kind of expensive car well before the holidays (Nero). And then drop the severely over priced Comet (which i love) closer to the holidays but you would have to go a long way to convince me that those were festive surprise vehicles.

 

I guess it's the drip feed BS that i find very annoying. Just give us all the content at once, people will see it and want it. At that point they will get to grinding or just fork over the cash for a shark card. So annoying waiting around for one vehicle, and now they don't even release one a week anymore :/

Their drip feed philosophy seems counter productive to their business scheme right now.

 

Announce an upcoming update, never talk about it again, suddenly release it for the surprise factor and also to ensure the casual gamers won't have time to forget about it. But then they cut their update to pieces, throwing them at us for weeks upon weeks, effectively making all those forgetful casual gamers lose interest in the game. What the hell is R* doing ?

 

Anyway, that car is hideous. It looks like a McLaren but not enough to be called a parody, looks more like a cheap Watch Dogs/Saints Row generic supercar model. Lacks detail and finesse.

Thought I was bad with the X80... Although I got the one I wanted first that time :/ As someone who considers themselves a patient person when it comes to real life traffic and things it's amazed me how the irratic release schedule has thrown me off!

Hoping for Friday, more likely next Tuesday.

 

Who knows at this point. It was the Nero on the Tuesday before Christmas, the Comet that Friday, nothing on Tuesday, nothing on New Years but we got the FCR yesterday (at least I think that's the schedule thus far).

So planned release, one car for every day of the week messy and split up over a month and a half, Noice.

I do not care ever since i noticed the felon is a lampadati brand somehow.

 

That being said, anyone else dissapointed we got the bike first and only after this we will be drip fed 2 cars in the coming weeks ?

 

By then its almost valentines day and sh*t

Yeah. The Itali is next with a cool 1.8 price on it then the next week is Spector's arrival.

By not having them released yet, we have more time to make money... :-)

 

I spent way too much money the past few weeks, so I'm ok with a lil longer wait, so I can get back on my financial feet again. The released bike is not my cup of tea, so...

 

That Italy-GTB looks great. With the right paintjob, it'll look fantastic...

Yep, i don't mind the wait. It will give me time to save up so i can buy both stock and custom like i did with the Nero and FCR :)

Slight boost, Rockstar appear to have suggested an update to the Tunables coming tomorrow. Source: https://twitter.com/rockstargames/status/816587635724615680

 

On the twelfth day of Christmas, Rockstar gave to me. The Progen ItaliGTB.

If it makes a questionable rhyme than it's meant to be...

Have not been home but on luck break and assuming it's not come today :(

I wouldn't expect it till tues unfortunately. My garages are ready. Of all the things R*f leaked, i was most excited about ALL the cars dropping day one (minus the 2 Christmas ones).

Tunables were not updated, they have to tomorrow it's just a question as to if they choose to bother giving us the car or not! I don't think they will but keeping the faith!

I think it's more

 

Best Case: Tomorrow

 

Bad Case: Tuesday

 

Worse case: Next Friday

 

The Case: After we are fed up of waiting

If you can't see McLaren in that car, you need a new pair of eyes.

Not seeing it in the overall design. Yes the front end is reminiscent of the 570 and the rear design of the P1 GTR... but the silhouette and greenhouse are unmistakably the Nemesis. Car belongs in a brand other than Progen.

I can understand most don't like the drip feeding of cars, but I see an advantage as well: You have time to make money so you don't cut too deep in your 'savings'... :-)

 

Wrt hideous factor: It's all in the eye of the beholder. To each their own, but I have saved two spots for the ItaliGTB in my CEO-garage... I'm gonna have a field-day tuning/customizing this 'hideous' creature.. ;-)

Lol. Let me get this straight.

 

"yes it has the front and rear of what would be a progen ingame"

 

"but because i'm edgy and found a car that looks like a taiwanese kit car version of a mclaren, with a worse looking roof, it clearly shouldn't be a progen"
