Transform Races - Your Thoughts?

[EggsAndJam]

I'm really enjoying these races so far. I feel like my flying ability is getting better each time I play.

 

Hangar missions improved my flying somewhat but only as far as getting used to being in the air and flinging the plane around to avoid enemies.

TR races have made me learn quickly how to fly technically to navigate obstacles/other players. In my humble opinion I'm getting pretty good. Good update, a solid 7/10.

I would say I am disappointed with the Transform Races that R* has given us but that would suggest I had high expectations from them. I have found the few I have done to be dull, like the Voltic and Aqua Quad bike thingy races I find them boring after the first lap but this is what I expected from R*.

 

However... Once this content is available in Creator and we can create multi class races (via pulling off to the side of the track, choosing a vehicle then starting the race in the desired vehicle) IMO the real potential of the transform checkpoints will shine through.

 

Anybody got any idea how long until they hit Creator?

 

Edit: Just read back through the thread and the 'good idea poor implementation' comments hit the nail on the head for me. I am slowly coming round to thinking this is a side effect of 'free' content as opposed to purchased DLC's as if this was something we had to pay for it just would not sell.

I'm guessing one or two weeks from now. The other creators of other game modes came out 1 - 2 weeks later. The wait is murder!

[jdv95]

they use the same vehicle spawns in 80% of the races.

 

mallard and havoc seem to be in every race.

 

not all that creative tbh.

Hope it is soon, was talking about it last night and I thought last time we had to wait for the next DLC, glad I was wrong.

 

Let the waiting begin

What's up with the f#cking smoke!! Sometimes it's there, sometimes not, it sucks!

Is that 10 vehicle selection total?

Or 10 per race?

 

And is that a fact/leak or speculation?

Selection.

You can't have a race that transform you into every vehicle available in this game.

Please tell me we can place as many Warp checkpoints as we like within the checkpoint limit!

No it makes sense that you can only select 4 or 5 different vehicles to change into per race.

 

I would be severely disappinted if R* only implemented 10 vehicles in to the TR creator though!!

Every vehicle should be available as a possible option. But limiting races to no more than 5 individual transforms per race makes sense.

Started off in my car, then switched to an airplane.....all that was cool until I transformed into a semi truck for no f*cking reason.

well that's kinda the point of these races. 1 moment you go fast the other you transform into something slow (can lead to fun moments)

 

just wish they had more creativity instead of letting us spawn in a havoc or malard for the 10th race in a row.

[StangOne50]

My thoughts have gotten to the point where they may not be appropriate even for this forum.

I just won a race by 2 seconds yet lost due to some score percentage BS apparently.

WTF is this douchebagery now?

[SaveTheZombies]

I was thinking about making a race where you can choose to drive a Super or a motorcycle, so it could be like Midnight Club.

Will we be able to set secondary CPs as transformer CPs?

I hope so, that sounds like fun.

I loved triathlon from earlier titles and V, but this implementation is beyond childish. Smoke clouds, seizure-inducing stunt props are the things I don't dig in particular. Air segments are absolutely primitive and requiring minimum skills, in comparison with proper air races or flight school missions. It's possible to create a more challenging playlist from traditional jobs and this thing is only alive because it's featured. BY the way, payouts are crap for 12 players 2 lap race: 18k for 1st place and change for anything else.

 

TL;DR: This will definitely entertain a lot of kids with variety of bright colors and props, but I'm hiding these blips and not coming back.

[KineticZeroZ]

It's a decent break from the grind but I can't see myself spending a lot of time with it after the double money runs out.

[Foppezão]

There's one track where the smoke really glitches and f#cks up, is primarily with a bike through tubes. For the rest, R* lays the foundation for some really fun future racing, good to see the 'triathlon'returns. The R* tracks are sober and not too hard, some are quite good, like Gauntlet 2. Let's wait and see till the real creationists get their hands on the props for these races.

[ShadowlessDevil]

Yes you can...make the race last 8 minutes for maximum payout

[Rafae]

What's the fun in doing these solo lol

Only if it's me

[Mach1bud]

Did about 7 or 8 of these last night. I think they are pretty fun, just wish the plane sections were more interesting. They should have made some really tight quarter sections for planes to fly through. I plan on playing these more while they are x2 just so I can try them all out.

 

The baseball and basketball one are cool, obviously ideas taken from jobs the community has already created.

Thanks!

 

We actually have lots of fun playing GTAO together.. when smugglers run came out he would watch me fly the Molotok for the first time he was trying hard not to laugh..lol. Sometimes when there's Adversary modes that involves cars comes out we make friendly bets... like who will do the dishes or better yet the one I love the best, Loser brings breakfast in bed for the winner for the whole weekend

Found these two and the large dragon to be some of their most creative stuff to date. Also, I'm pleased they added freefalling and parachuting as transform checkpoints.

Do you remember which races parachuting was in? I wanna try those.

 

Tried a few more solo today; theyre pretty cool. Only seen one with off-roading, and that was just the final stretch on the beach. Hopefully there are more.
