Overflöd Tyrant appreciation thread


metoxys

Recommended Posts

The Tyrant is a testament to human ingenuity. We're not sure who's more impressive: the team of engineers who've taken us as close as human beings can get to installing a gear stick and a steering wheel in the front of a hurricane, or the team of lawyers who got it classified as road legal. Take your pick.

Not released yet

Has a downforce value of 3.0

My first impression based on the handling files is that the fully upgraded Tyrant will outcompete a fully upgraded Vagner.

My second impression is that this car is most likely going to suffer from the acceleration and top speed issues that pretty much all of the new cars have (I'm explaining why that is

) and will thus be mid-tier or upper-mid-tier at best. Edited by metoxys

What car is this based on? It looks way better than the vagner imo.

 

Looks like an Apollo Arrow.

I'm not going to sell my vagner for the tyrant, why not both? But I expect the best from a car named "tyrant", I have to wait until I'm off work for rockstar to crush those expectations.

I really like Apollo cars, seen some in Geneva few years ago, I’m really hyped for this one.

A downforce value of 3? This looks like a possible competitor to the Vagner.

Jesus Christ, that downforce level. It's going to buckle itself under the pressure at speed.

The rear seems to be based on the mess that is the intensa emozione

Apollo Arrow front, Apollo IE/Arrow rear, what more do you want? With a downforce value of 3, this car gonna be insane... Just noticed it's an Overflod which is fine, kinda makes sense

You forgot the disgraceful 'Engine Resistance' mechanic they added to all new cars in this update. so don't be sure.

Wondering if I should skip the XXR and wait for this beast. My budget can only handle one 2m+ supercar.

Will probably be better, but given the problems with the nex cars, this one could be underwhelming as well.

Because the Entity XXR is slower than the Entity XF, I feel this bug won't last too long

Few things I've noticed:

  • It's HUGE. It's longer and wider than the X80, which was already a very big super. You'll have severe issues squeezing through traffic with this car.
  • Front wheels can clip through the body when driving at high speed, which is extra-bad if you have lowered the suspensions.

It looks cool and all, but to me, the design doesn't fit in with all the other supercars. Looks like it was modded in to be honest.

And... how is that a bad thing??

Just like the Taipan then, that car is also enormous.

Are those just regular doors like the XXR has? And does it have Overflod emblems on the seats? So far only the Entity got those.

It's not engine resistance, we're still not sure what exactly this does

I'm explaining what causes these issues in this video:

Its not actually, the design is quite fresh, but being a game all about parodying real life counterparts, it doesnt look silly and plastic enough :)

As far as the line of code metoxys is referring to making these new high performance/race cars sluggish, I feel like that was not the intended effect. It doesn't make since to intentionally make some of the world's fastest cars and legit race cars, worse than current offerings in a racing themed update, even when you apply "rockstar logic". I think that code might have been intended to make these new cars into master class track cars, and it backfired. That being said, I still like the XXR and the Taipan. I'm going to keep them regardless of whether or not rockstar ever "fixes" them, they're both very good looking cars.

They are gullwing doors IIRC.
