That's what you think, and they think the opposite. They don't care about money, they care about what they think you're feeling, and they think you being obliterated by an insta kill button makes you mad and nothing can change their perspective.

The funniest is that they will all, to a man, insist that their shot was free, when you know all too well that it has just cost them $750,000. Just to save face. 😂

Thats a fair point. I would probsb just laugh at them tho and say like "Lmaoo, gratz, you spent 900k to make me lose 3 seconds, have fun grinding that money back" thatll piss him off

The orbital cannon is so overpowered in Doomsday act 3...feels almost like I'm cheating. /s

It's a weapon for cowards which is activated from their facility, where they can see a satellite view of the island and every player marked on it. It allows them to pick out and lock on to any player in the session and make a guaranteed kill.

That doesn't always work, buddy. The OC's blast radius is that of a star going supernova.

 

 

Why did you go to the first floor? You're safe on the ground floor. Tested numerous times.

I have to say though, there's something extremely satisfying about the thought of a loser having a crywank in the safe confines of his facility.

Nothing better than laughing at OC users. They have usually been soundly thrashed and it has cost them a fortune for one petulant kill in return.

First floor should have saved me anyway. The fact that it could pierce through multiple floors is insanity,

True, I learned that the hard way too. It's ridiculous, you should be safe under ANY surface, i.e you should be able to go to the third floor and still be safe

No the funniest is you thinking most people pay even tho we know all to well they don't due to glitches,  modded accounts or simply leaving after the shot.  You're just creating this narrative to help you fell good about being obliterated.  Don't know about you but I don't play long sittings so it takes days for me to fill my businesses so when I finally sell the bunker for example and someone obliterates my 2m sale Im not at all laughing and I sure as hell aint thinking "dummy spent 750k".

I never defended the OC tho. If someone cries and decides to use something like the OC, i think the one who cried and spent all that money is the real loser here. If you annoy some asshole so much that they sink so low as to use it, i think you should be proud. I am against the OC, hell, i dont even use my Mark 2, Widowmaker nor Explosive Heavy Sniper Mk2, because imo they arent fair game.

Except those specific people are in the minority.  Most who use the canon are rich,  have glitched money or simply leave after obliterating your business sale so they dont pay.  I cant view them as losers.

Are you on PC? I would say that there aren’t quite the level of modded accounts on console and if players don’t leave after the shot, they aren’t taking advantage of any glitches are they? 
 

I don’t give a f*ck about being obliterated man. I don’t know how many times I have to repeat that it happens so rarely that it hardly registers as even a minor nuisance. If it was more frequent I might be inclined to agree with you.

 

Ouch, $2m sale 😂

You don't have a problem with OC doesn't excuse OC's existence in the game! You have 3 and more hours every day for grinding in GTA:O?! Great! That's wonderful, but not everyone has so much free time, which they can spend for money grinding in GTA:O.

 

And just because someone rarely obliterates you with OC it doesn't mean that the rest of the players are rarely obliterated with OC. You are only one of the many players in GTA:O.

I told you already.  Im on xbox just like you and you're full of sh*t.  Plenty of modded accounts and people with glitched millions on console  Don't know what glitch free sessions you play in.  True if they don't leave they aren't taking advantage of the exploit but considering majority of the canon uses leave after the shot whats your point?  An "if" surely isn't your argument is it?

This is why you don't really have an argument or a place in this debate.   Unless you think your experience speaks for everyone.

Ouch, $2m sale 😂

Yep went off radar so I had no idea he was going to his facility and had no prior beef so I didn't know he was going to OC me but hey at least he spent 750k :lol: oh wait... he left :blink: oh now he's back and in is facility again.  Now let me wait until he comes out so I can get payback. :sarcasm:

Calm down. I play in the same type as you, and all I can say is that my experience in public lobbies appears to be markedly different.

With your bad attitude, I'm inclined to say that you deserved it. Now that I know you're on XBOX I hope I Bumpy into you, I'll send you a hello from my facility. Free of charge.

The minority in a debate is not good company.  I speak for the majority.

Your view is trash and based on opinions and assumptions Idc what you "think" I deserved.  I don't bother people in sessions and dont destroy cargo so keep guessin clown.  I clearly stated I had no prior beef and didn't even know him yet you still make that assumption because Im responding to YOUR sh*tty attitude on here.  You're an assumption machine.  lol  Could it be he simply wanted to destroy cargo?  "Hoping" you bump into me is coward talk.  lol  Oh and using a glitch after you claim you don't use them makes you a hypocrite.  lol

Actually it looks like you think that your experience speaks for majority.  I have to ask since when minority speaks for majority?! I haven't seen anyone else, who would defend so much a tool, which can't even be used for money grinding in GTA:O, just for griefing and cheating.

Ah no,  you just said apparently I think I speak for everyone.  Me saying "no just the majority" was a correction to that claim not an argument towards the main debate "should the OC be removed".  You're the only strawman here.  :lol:

I didn’t say it was the same one, just pointing out your tendency to fall back on it.

Anyway! The way how you were giving your opinion looks like you think your opinion is an argument why majority should tolerate OC. 🙄

You’re right, it’s a pointless argument.

 

Bottom line is that you’ll have to tolerate it if you want to play GTAO, because there is no indication that it is going to be removed as things stand.

Why I have to tolerate it?! Just because you say so?! How selfish! 🙄 😁

 

 

Yeah, yeah it won't be removed because greedystar wants to milk money in every possible way! That's not a surprise! Only problem is that their greed is killing GTA:O. I'm already going to solo public sessions just to avoid OC as much as possible, but with time solo public sessions becomes boring because I can't enjoy that moment where I have to defend my cargo because other players are attacking it.  NPC's with time becomes boring because they are predictable enemies.  In the end it won't be a surprise if many players will stop playing GTA:O because of this.

Nothing to do with me, I didn't put it in the game. What other choice do you have if you want to play GTAO ?

I sympathise, but despite our friend up there telling me I am full of sh*t, I can honestly say hand on heart that I rarely see those dreaded words "......was obliterated by the Orbital Cannon" pop up on screen, and I spend a fair amount of time in Freemode (not grinding though)

 

That is why, relatively speaking, it is low down on the priority list of annoyances as far as I am concerned. You feel different, but that's okay.

Ah, the internet and its lack of emotions! I should've known that! 🙄That grinning emoticon should've indicated that I wasn't serious about that whole selfish thing.

 

Anyway! I understand that in your case OC isn't so annoying because you rarely have to see how someone obliterates you with OC, but the way how you were saying it looked like you're saying that majority should tolerate OC just because you don't have problems with it.  I don't have any problems with a fact that people don't agree to my opinion, but I do have problems with moments when it looks like someone is trying to tell majority that majority should tolerate something just because minority doesn't have problems with it.

No. I use that to troll my buddies or whenever I conduct car meets. If I don't want to get hit, I either go to an invite lobby, or just turn on passive mode.

or find a public lobby with no one around if you're trying to do criminal mastermind for doomsday heist.

If you want a pure PVP action experience expect to get rekt and find a way around to avoid getting rekt.
