GTA:O Drip feeding Has Officially Reached A New Low...

[Arrows to Athens]

I've noticed they've been very keen on delaying the Jester Classic for as much as possible. They know that it's a very iconic and popular car amongst the car community, so they're just trying to be asses and stretching the drip feed for as long as they can.

The optimist in me thinks that they're delaying its release to be able to fix its most glaring issues, like the lack of a headlight.

The cynicist in me fully agrees with your post though.

Your optimist has a good point. In fact, that's the first explanation that jumped into my mind; that they've looked at the negative community response and are now planning on fixing up the design. That may certainly be possible. If that's the case, I hope they put it in the sports class and name it something else.

Dripfeeding gives me more time to talk myself out of buying overpriced sh*t, especially when the YouTubers on PC have reviews and customisation up from day one. When everything was released at once I bought a lot more.

 

Edit: Oh yeah, and instead of having the new vehicle straight away, and enjoying it for months, I hardly play until it's released, and then have it for less than a week before the next DLC drops and distracts me.

+1 I spawn every vehicle in sp, try every given customisation option; waste hundreds of them. The time they officially released in online, i don't have a desire to buy them. (at least for  most of them)

 

If they release all of them in day one, i probably buy more cars in online.

It still hasn't released yet... I logged on today, and there are zero new cars... This is getting ridiculous.

If that's true, that would mean we should get a GTA update trailer on Thursday aprox then. That would mark two weeks without an update I think, which means the next one is on its way

Rockstar have just announced this week's update: DOUBLE GTA$ AND RP ON SELECT HEISTS & CONTACT MISSIONS IN GTA ONLINE, which beggars belief. Why are they continuing to delay the release of a single and not very good car? By the time they do release the Jester Classic it's going to get absolutely slammed, and everyone seems to hate it already.

 

What's even more confusing is why Rockstar treats the GTA online gaming community like a bunch of fools, and continues to concentrate its marketing campaigns on new and casual players who have no idea what's going on. It's as though we don't exist and are of no interest to them, and they will carry on releasing age-old leaked content regardless.

 

I don't understand how Rockstar's marketing department is so out of touch with the people who actually play this game.

After all this time, if they release it with a missing headlight and other bugged stuff, im gonna be really upset. When I first made this topic drip feed was somewhat okay. This is getting really bad now.

I honestly don't think we are of any interest to them.

 

I can't buy anything new without selling something, which makes me picky. Partly due to this I've got an ever increasing mountain of in game money and I know what's coming before it's released.

 

In short they couldn't sell me a Shark Card even if they tried, and let's be honest, at £64.99 for $8m in game, they really aren't trying.

 

Premium online edition, CESP, making new businesses available to VIPs who don't have to buy into offices and the lowering of the amount of cash needed to register as a VIP all scream that R* is now aiming online firmly at new and casual players.

 

I'm a freeloader.

I’d be ok waiting 2-3 weeks for 2-4 vehicles but waiting 2 plus weeks for one car is a sh*t business tactic. 

[Rafae]

At this point I'll just be aggravated if the JC isn't completely redone for the next update or at least tweaked considerably if it's still coming before the next update.

 

If they held it back with no changes? Man....

I hope they keep it back because their working on fixing the Engine Limit Flag, and remove it on all the new cars before this crappy DLC Dripfeed ends. And then they can release the new DLC and everything is good again.

 

I really hope im right about this.

[crsN]

I can agree with you, engine limit flag need to be removed or reworked. But something need to be changed because kerb boosting, brake boosting etc. has pretty much destroyed the gta racing community.

I just bought the Tapain (if that's how you spell it) yesterday and it is so slow. Why did I invest over one mil in this car that cannot compete at all? A streetcar is faster than this car. They better fix those flags... 

[Mexicola9302]

It would be so easy to just remove all the curbs in the damn stunt races. It would mean no more curbboosting anymore. I couldn't care less about curbboosting TBH. I barely drive races in this game, i play in freeroam 90% of the time. And play Forza if I wanna drive races.

Broken cars, recycled races with simply different colors around the track and a new angle on the track at one point equals new DLC, hooray. Total BS joke.
