Dogfight--yay or nay?

[MastuhWaffles]

This mode is a joke. And whoever made it is a incompetent f*ck.

The fact that we start facing each other on the runways at the airfield is horse sh*t. And if you take a classic plane, it doesn't start you off at full power so it takes you awhile to get up in the air versus a jet. Then the one on the aircraft carrier its who can turn around the quickest on the carrier and kill the other.

 

Literally all they had to do was spawn everyone in the air, and go for a big dogfight which would have been a blast, but I guess their brain is too tiny.

Dogfight? More like dogsh*t.

Actually playing it, it's not terrible. The round system is boring though, and should have been an option for players to choose jets OR planes to pick from, with the Rogue added to the planes section. Although it can't spam missiles, you don't need them to win. Just having the option for it would have been nice. As it stands no point in picking the Nokota since it takes way longer to lift of putting you at a disadvantage from the get go. However it can hold its own when you do get in the air.

 

As I thought, the AFKers have invaded this mode and put you at a severe disadvantage when they are on your team.

 

Good for sharpening your skills.

 

Just wish it was one big furball with two teams.

Lol.

 

It's like when you see a player in a lobby/job that's got as many invisible limbs as possible.

[StormerBoy]

Why can't they allow us more control like on gta iv? Host should be able to select which vehicles are allowed, including hydra etc

Hey thats my joke, get your own!

Nobody's asking why the answers are in German?


Anyway... since we're at it:

[CosmicBuffalo]

Definitly a good mode except for players leaving as usual causing loading problems. 4 out of 5 stars. I am always for the cannon. Thats why I didnt give it 5 stars.

[0cta]

Has someone played it with friends only? I could theoretically imagine that there's an unlikely, minor chance that watching friends dueling with a bit of commenting and talking about the dogfight could be a fraction of a bit entertaining.

 

And then R* tested that and thought everybody will grab their popcorn while watching randoms.

 

Sorry, i tried to think of more phrases to lessen the chance of that beeing possible even more, but i'm done.

[Skeve613]

From reddit.

 

 

Quite accurate.

 

 

Nuff said, this time I don't even want to spend more than a couple sentences complaining about another adversary mode...

[No Use For A Name]

Im sure the G Rating Hot versus missions are a million times better than this

 

Those are actually super fun

poll is in german because it's force of habit

Something like "The Devil made me do it?" Hey, no offense!... I think it's funny. (:

As usual Rockstar's ambition exceeds their execution

 

Take one of the funnest things ever and turn it into a pile of dogsh*t, the Rockstar way

[xDatxJunkyx]

Garbage.

 

How the f*ck do you mess up such a 'perfect' concept . . . I waited twice for my turn and ended up getting black screened or being frozen in place. All they had to do was make stockpile again, but take away all the pretty colours and let everyone go at it or LTS.

 

C'mon. Hurry up and get rid of this plane garbage. Stop dragging this crap out and move on to the next thing. Its one thing that the update wasn't my cup of tea, but that its contents had to be strung along for 3 months now.

 

Hopefully, this 'new hipsters' will be my day in the sun, as it will for other people with like minds.

[Snoopbr]

Another deception.

Just played it ...gotta say who ever thought itd be a great idea not to put everyone in at the same time needs to be fired ASAP

[DarkFlame588]

Always nice when the AFK person on your team has two turns... every round......

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

... im not even going to bother playing it once tbh

[ALifeOfMisery]

Played it a second time, against my better judgement, only because my first impression was so negative, thought I'd give it another shot.

 

I still think it's w*nk. Spectating is tedious, the payout is sh*t, AFK and rage quitting is rife. What a horrible, horrible AM.

 

A group dogfight would have been fun. Maps should have been locked to a different vs situation as Pyro is king. Have maps locked to choosing Hydra or Lazer, Pyro or Molotok, Nokota or Rogue etc. A choice to lock to MG instead of the incessant HM spam.

 

How R* managed to think taking every element of fun out of dogfighting would somehow make for a good AM is beyond me.

[Foppezão]

For a big dogfight orgy, give this a try. For me it's a classic. Lazers only.

For some reason, it's not possible to make vehicle deathmatch (anymore)

I had various experiences with lvl 100 + that didn't know how to pull up or turn in any direction, it was hilarious to see them either going only straight or scrap the paint on the runway and then on the trees before turning into a fire ball.

 

But otherwise, besides traditional afk + rage quit festival, it's not that bad. Especially when you face someone competent and willing to fight.

 

I'm feeling better with the Molotok overall, had my best kills with it...despite the Pyro being more maneuverable, I just feel better in the old Mig.

[Gridl0k]

Why would you launch a dogfight mode that had 14 people watching 2 people fight though.

 

[MikeTower]

Internet is not known for people agreeing on any subjects. It is nice to see a group of people, in this case GTA:O players, almost unanimously agree on something, namely that Dogfight AM is crap.

 

I wish it was a great AM and we'd all be agreeing that it is -the- sh*t, but oh well. And yeah, I too think it could be improved by either running the duels next to one another or making it one large free for all WITHOUT homing missiles.

 

Oh, and without the game freezing. That would be nice too.

It has the potential to be fun, but there are a lot of flaws. Some are typical and caused by players (AFK players always flock to and ruin double money jobs). Others are all on Rockstar. Is it glitchy because they rushed it? It freezes up after a round if anyone quits the job.

 

I also don't understand why we can't lock it to planes OR jets. I'd love to use the Nokota, but you're at a speed and maneuverability disadvantage from the start if you're up against a jet.

 

The waiting for your turn is boring as hell. They should have learned from Overtime Shootout. My only hope is that, like Overtime,there are two versions of the job and this is the crappy one. Maybe next week they'll come out with an Overtime Rumble style version where everyone is in the air at once and its pure mayhem.

[Gridl0k]

Probably pretty fun in a playtest with 15 other devs either in the same room or all on headsets.

 

Like pulling teeth when it's 15 strangers and the only chat is some 8 year old blaring eminem through his offbrand phone speaker.
