I don't get why these people are in bad sport, they mostly seem to hang out in passive mode XD

Some are them are waiting for their ghost cooldown to end. Can't blame them, with the amount of orbital strikes and gamebreaking glitches going on there. I'm sure half the lobby is driving the RC B as of now.

My B & M for the day = non-custom races! Why the F do people want to race the crappy, slow, stock vehicles? Just buy some already.

Probably because it gives an unfair disadvantage to players who don't own the custom vehicles. A lot of players don't want to shell out about a half of a million dollars on a vehicle, just to be able to have a chance at winning a race. TBH, this probably wouldn't be an issue if R* classed vehicles on preformance rankings (A,B,C,D,E) instead of vehicle types (Super, Sports, Compacts).

I'm very annoyed to know that in order have this in the game, I have to glitch it:

 

 

 

 

 

 

The blacked out screen works normally in game, just like in single player.

 

This should have been in the game from day one.

This makes me think how interesting the game would be if we actually had to pull out our phones for everything.

 

For example, want to go Ghost Org? Gotta call the Assistant for that, all while being vulnerable from being attacked by other players.

 

It would make you choose between having a weapon or your cell phone ready for anything, giving it a tactical feel of sorts.

Its a double edged sword though, on one hand this would slightly deter tryhards, on the other hand this would make it harder for the CEO doing business to use it in a hurry.

 

I say add it to the game for immersion purposes once they patch the glitches associated with it(phone disappears when you're in passive mode, and in first person view the phone in your hand gets obstructed by the phone that appears as a HUD).

 

Question for Last Gen players(if there's any here left): Can you do this glitch on your game? It think it should be possible.

It's also OP because the phone is bulletproof.

The phone may be bulletproof but the person holding it isn't.

Why does Rockstar consider vehicles a top priority and why do we need lots of them? I swear, they have more vehicles than anything else.

The game can't be just about cars, though. It's about being a criminal. A ton of cars ain't gonna cut it.

We can do carjacking, sure. But those cars should've been made available in free roam without having to buy them or anything.

I hate that sh*t currently. I've given up on call activities as it seems to happen a lot there I find, especially heists and the arena. Luckily I'm plodding the bunker for that tattoo between freemode missions and goofing about with the RC car.

 

Really needs addressing urgently though.

[DominusTaranis]

Hey, you know what would be a really nice tactical option on the streets of San Andreas while fighting against police, gangs, agents and other such nonsense in missions? some forward recon of the objective area! I can use my RC car to swooce right in and detonate an objective, soften an entrenched enemy, or just get some info on enemy positions and strengths! Oh, it's unavailable in missions.... What about the flying drones? Oh, the Terrorbyte is also unavailable. Maybe I can use my Osprey to rain down artillery from a relatively secure position and soften the...oh, that's unavailable as well. Maybe the MoC turrets? The Nightclub sell vehicles? 

Oh. Guess it's back to Deluxo missile spam for me.

This is one of the things that keeps me coming back to games like Wildlands and such. The freedom to choose how I tackle missions. When games update and give me new toys, and I can take those toys and go back and redo old missions in new and fun ways, I'm pulled back over and over. 
Even Titanfall 2, which is, for all intents and purposes, a linear shooter, draws me back in over and over because of how smooth it is, and how much freedom I have to try encounters in different ways. Sure, I can kill Ash in under thirty seconds with Tone, but maybe I wanna try a Ronin, or do it out of my titan. 

GTA suffers so heavily from this "PLAY IT OUR WAY OR NOT AT ALL" syndrome that kills games, it's no wonder I have my nightclub grind and basically only play for maybe twenty minutes a day. Just long enough to sale, buy some stuff I've wanted, and f*ck off with other stuff until I have to set up the grind again.

i hate that i/e sourcing mission where you have to chase that guy in the super car who gets chased by the cops.

how are you supposed to get that car without too much damage??

i've already wasted way too much time on that mission.

a couple of times i've been lucky and could get that car with not too much damage but most of the times i either don't get to catch that car at all or the damage is just too high.

how do you guys do this mission?

does anybody know a good trick for this mission?

there are some points where you can snipe the driver out before you trigger  the mission by coming too close.

I usually use a sniper to kill the guy before he gets in his car, then call lester to get rid of cops. Don't go too close tho because that will trigger the guy to get in the car and start the chase.

Also don't use explosive rounds, that would go without saying but still, the last time I did this mission and was going to exploit this is forgot to remove the ammo...Car got blown up in a single shot.

That explains why I’m always in Passive Mode while I’m out in the wild since the release of the Doomsday Heists update. You’ll never see the c*nt coming.

Eh, it's quite easy to predict when someone you have beef with is going for the cannon, they first just have to inexplicably vanish from the map but still remain in session, then you scoop up the map to check if anyone is in a facility(knowing where all facilities are and putting pins on them helps), if you see anyone in the facility you immediately go off radar so the auto targeting won't lock on you, then you either high tail to somewhere with enough cover(parking garages are the best) or your MOC/Avenger/Terrobyte so you can be safe and wait for the salty player to waste their money.

For being lauded as the ultimate online sandbox (or something like that), there's actually not much freedom in how we can play 

[Guest Billy Russo]

Had a nice lobby going with 5 other players, all going our separate ways and doing our own Cargo and leaving each other alone. It was great.

 

Then some dickhead joins and starts trying to blow up our cars whilst we are delivering them. I just can't stand asshats like these. Pathetic bitches.

 

I get it's GTA and I should expect it, but man, players like this really make me sour on the game. Doesn't help Rockstar gives them so many tools to grief with and highlights you on the map too. Wow, thanks a bunch

Even worse when you have to sit through the heist  'tutorials' and monologues of finales you've done a hundred times because you can't skip them.

I don't mind this so much in GTA online, probably because it's the same game I've been playing for five years, but I did have a problem with RDR2/O, which ultimately negated my experience. You're allowed to do whatever you want until it comes to 'mission' time, and then you have no freedom at all except go to point B on the map and follow the movie sequence game-play. It's a bit like an old game I remember in the arcades called Dragon's Lair, where you had to go back and repeat if you made one wrong step. It was kinda crap even back then. There are times when I want story missions to simply end so I can get back to playing the game the way I want. As one YouTuber put it, I forget who, Rockstar's model of going to a mission corona and essentially watching a movie (it was much worse in RDRO) feels old fashioned and outdated.
