That's actually not too bad in my books :). Couldn't say it's worse than capitalism, look what that's done to the world.. and gaming, f*cked them both.

metoxys Posted July 28, 2018 Author Share Posted July 28, 2018 now that I've tested a bit more in singleplayer I have to make a small correction the bouncy suspension handling flag still is absolute garbage, but what seems to happen is that the flag gets removed in Online and therefore the cars feel nicer to drive than previously more testing is required on that end... re: discussion of political philosophy, stop it for now, guys, there's better places to do that than here Yellow Dog with Cone, ddarko12, FuturePastNow and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It gives a little hope tho of they actually adjusted some of the values 2 hours ago, metoxys said: Edited July 28, 2018 by kenmy13999 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellow Dog with Cone Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 You know, at first I was actually in favor of the new advanced flags, after all, even when seriosuly flawed, those were meant to remove curb/kerb boosting, which is a good thing IMO. But now in this new update, not only they didn't tweaked or fixed them at all, they also added them to the new cars again, condemning them to irrelevance thanks to their gimped performance. So now I changed my mind, remove them, I want my cars to feel actually fast. And while we're at it, remove the downforce value too, it's stupid that only a few cars have them and the rest not, all or nothing, have some consistency for f*cks sake.

Please keep your misguided, stupid political philosophy out of the thread. Please and thanks. Well US imposes several heavy economic blockades to Cuba for decades now and that didnt mean that there are kids starving on the streets there, like we have thousands here in Brazil. Not to mention they are all highly educated. Also public healthcare isnt a concern either. I mean it must make you at least think about it IMHO. But yeah lets keep the political talk away from here. Just wanted to point that out otherwise it would just go by. So do we know if every vehicle of After Hours is affected by the flags or just a handsome?

Mexicola9302 Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 (edited) I started a Petition. Grand Theft Auto Online - Engine Limit Flag Removal Petition Edit: The problem is it can't be found by google or on the change.org site yet, because it needs at least 100 ppl that signed it until i can be found at all. It's only this link that is published yet, that's the only way to sign it. So please 97 more ppl that sign it at least then there is a small chance.

AUScowboy Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 But why tho... that is my question. To combat curb boosting? Not worth it IMO. Yellow Dog with Cone, Bandersnatch, Nossirag and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mexicola9302 Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 (edited) Or they wanted the cars to handle more realistic, but it doesn't make sense to only do it on the newer cars. Everything before the SSASSS was all right and now this sh*t since march, still wondering why they did that. Would be nice if Rockstar would share their opinion on this.

Fatsanchez Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 A longer 1st gear makes sense for old cars. This is interesting. Too bad to achieve it they broke several cars. I hope they manage to tweak everything or even remove the flags like you guys are petitioning. I still wish to do burnouts with my Ellie someday you know.

metoxys Posted July 29, 2018 Author Share Posted July 29, 2018 more testing results... the Scramjet also has weird and extra long gears, to such an extent that the only way to make the car shift higher than 4th gear (when upgraded it's got 7 gears) is by using the rocket boost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I guess you’re right, but it would make sense to have some cars with only 4 gears imo Yellow Dog with Cone, AUScowboy and Mach1bud 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And cars do indeed have different numbers of gears in this game. Point is that the Swinger is still wrong. It shouldnt shift into 2nd at almost 70 mph lol.

metoxys Posted July 29, 2018 Author Share Posted July 29, 2018 (edited) FYI the upgraded Swinger has 6 gears. the gear shift points are at 66.6 / 90.5 / 108 / 118 / 119 mph the upgraded Scramjet has 7 gears with the shift points being at 51.6 / 93.4 / 114.8 / ??? / ??? / ??? mph Edited July 29, 2018 by metoxys Yellow Dog with Cone, Nossirag, Fatsanchez and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
