So I bought the Rampant Rocket, due to it being discounted. I probably never would have bought it otherwise, although I do admit to being slightly curious to how it handled. My first impressions? Why has this thing made it it's personal vendetta to just kill you? Did Rockstar forget to add steering to it?

that ramcunt rocket is so sh*t, it handles similarly to the stryder, I actually had one and I was not content with it at all, so I sold it. I still can't acknowledge how f*ckstar implement these braindead/ pointless vehicles and the inferior part about it is that they have to dripfeed them when they are not even obligatory in the game.

Go on call for adversary mode(hoping for deadline, don't just fire one up as host because nobody ever joins jobs that I host), get Sumo Remix, try again, Sumo Remix, Sumo Remix, Sumo Remix, Sumo Remix. Why the hell does everyone like Sumo Remix that much? It's not even double money/RP and imho original Sumo is so much more fun.

 

Anyway, I finally get into a Deadline, kicked. Another one, kicked, kicked, kicked, kicked, kicked, kicked. You shouldn't even be allowed to be kicked from the lobby, there's literally no way at that point that anyone can know if you're deserving of a kick or not, I'm pretty sure it's just idiots who kick high levels because they feel like they wouldn't stand a chance. Joke's on them though, I suck pretty hard at Deadline and am not all that much of a challenge to beat at it.

I feel you. I'm only Rank 33 (so I'm hardly a professional) but I've been kicked two or three times from Deadline now. I've a conspiracy theory that it's because people play Deadline and cheese it just so they can help a pal out by dying repeatedly in order to let said pal net the biggest payout (by surviving / winning). So you end up with groups of mates who host Deadline matches intent on helping each other out by manipulating the system, and when someone unwarranted pops up, they get the good ol' boot.

I've lost over 200,000 $ worth of vehicle cargo in the last two nights to peice of sh*t tryhards and hackers, and when i try to play a few dispatch missions it sends me a stupid casino mission instead, i can't win

[LeeC22]

My GTAO gameplay is now basically, Load the game spawning at the Casino Penthouse, spin the Lucky Wheel, close the game. Today it managed to throw a spanner in those simple works.

 

Got to the lucky wheel slightly early, so decided to try a few spins on the Diamond Miner slot. Got to my last spin and got 7-7-7, which was a nice 625,000 chips. Goes to the LW, gets a Mystery Unlock - Gold Minigun... annoying (as I don't play now) but not bad as a prize. Tried to move, couldn't. Tried to open the interaction menu, couldn't... same with the Pause Menu. The only option was ALT+F4, meaning quitting with no save. Loaded back into the game, chips were still there but it said I could spin the LW again so it hadn't even registered the spin. Landed on Mystery Unlock (again)... got a BF Injection. So a $125,000 special item replaced with a $1,600 car you can steal off the street. *sigh*

 

What I found interesting about this, was that the Mystery hit twice, almost as if that's what I was supposed to get today. Since the Casino opened I have only ever hit that twice and today I get it twice in one day. Did make me wonder if they have started pre-determining the win, which would be the obvious fix for the always-win-the-car glitch.

 

The main B&M in all this, is that you can't get much simpler than a Lucky Wheel game mechanic and yet they can even find ways to f**k it up and make you force-quit the game with that. Not even going to bother submitting a bug-report because their support people are even more incompetent than their online developers. It'll be my connection error, or my profile error, or my GPU drivers, or a-n-other problem that is my fault... hard drive too small, game on the wrong hard drive, launcher on the wrong hard drive, some hardware needs disabling etc... w-anchors.

It would be nice if there was a preferred lobby type option, next your spawn location settings, which the game will default to whenever you load into the game.  But I suppose that would make too much sense.  

Or just let us select spawn location before actually loading the multiplayer. Because this thins is pathetically slow in 2020: you can load some games faster than average GTAO session.

I really hate how the Stryder controls because I still really REALLY want to like it. This B&M is about how f*cked you are if you end up with the front against a wall/object on a slope going down. YOU CAN'T REVERSE IT! WHAT THE f*ck?

 

The only reason I'd use this as a Getaway Vehicle would be if I wanted to GET AWAY from it.

 

[Hécate-II]

Vagrant is decent to escape but Stryder and Zhaba makes no sense as getaway vehicles. At least in my opinion they're hard to exploit, too slow for Zhaba and too unstable for Stryder. 2015 SUV Insurgent would be better as 10% armored Special Vehicle.

I think the reason why they're getaway vehicles is because Dumbstar wants more casual players who don't keep updated with drip fed vehicles to know about them, which increases the likelihood of more players wasting money on them, so "sense" is intentionally thrown out of the window here. They're pointless and just... sh*t. 

 

They're in the game just for the sake of being in the game and having players spend heaps of cash on them.

[TCMike]

Oh, for gods sake...

Just did a freemode event for daily objective and it didn't check off... what gives?

[Sil3ntWr4th_-]

I absolutely despise vending special cargo in the cuban 800, it really grinds my gears because of all that f*cking smoke in which then I can't see where I'm landing but I still don't know how I pulled this off even though the cuban blew up to smithereens and realistically destroyed all of my special cargo.

also how can I gun down so many f*cking terminator AI on my own? Its merely impossible.

f*ck you f*ckstar nerf these mofos.

EDIT: excuse my sniper ability, my game was being funny and stuttering therefore I couldn't even get a single accurate shot.

too much frame dropping......

I've yet to complete a heist because lack of time and competence. Is the getaway timed? 

[Arrows to Athens]

The cops just love getting in your way, even if you're not wanted, don't they? They always happen to be at the wrong place, at the wrong time. 

 

 

NOTHING is more infuriating in this game than mindless cops that loiter. Loitering cops are a special kind of annoyance. Can't a man simply drive in a straight line in peace? F*ck me.

 

 

I live for the day when we get the option to turn off cops and traffic.

^ agreed they never like to mind their own business. They always have to be involved in EVERYTHING.

 

What really brings my piss to a boil is the fact that I can’t drop those stupid arse alien guns. I don’t give a sh*t about them nor do I want them in my inventory. Can’t drop them either so what the f*ck?

Back on topic. What in the f*ck is that random Morse code buzzing? I am NEVER prepared for it. It's not startling, but it sounds like...just...buzzing in Morse code. On the f*cking radio. Doesn't matter the station. Been happening since last gen. Just a quick long beep then a couple of short beeps, and then nothing. Doesn't even interrupt the music. It gets my paranoia spiking.

If you have gun locker, you can choose to hide them there and it won't appear in the weapon wheel.

FFS! After the minigun fiasco yesterday with the lucky wheel, today it decides that I'm not having the $40,000 that I landed on... for about the 8th time in the last 3 months. You get the script notification in the top-left corner but no cash is added to your account, so there's no cash change notification in the top-right corner.

 

You also get the added bonus-feature of the "Transaction Pending" spinner on screen for the rest of the session and that one's a real p*ss*r. You're not supposed to turn the game off when that is on-screen, so what happens when it's on-screen all of the time?

 

So in two days, it's cost me $165,000 in lost winnings, minus the selling fee of the BF Injection. What a truly rewarding experience when playing a game for 5 minutes, feels like 5 minutes of wasted time. smfh

There are a few points in the city centre where you get 'phone / radio interference. I usually noticed it whenever I was racing on my preferred casual track (Code 13-91) and driving underneath the freeway and onto the raised overpass by the Maze Bank tower. 

 

Annoying for sure though! Even after I'd figured that it was the game and not my real life 'phone / radio!

Did you already own a Shotaro on that character, or the other character on same account?

Or did you spin the wheel in a public session?

In public session, the wheel doesn't always show the right prize if someone used it before you.

I only spin the wheel in invite-only sessions, after a clean start of the game through single player, just to avoid that bug.

I won the Shotaro on my previous day of spinning by cheesing it.

You should try not to win the podium vehicle if you have already won it for the week. You can't win it twice, but you'll get 20k RP instead. Be ready to cheese when it lands on vehicle too.

Cheese the wheel for Mystery prizes all you like, just beware, you can get cash, RP, chips, or clothing as mystery prize too so be ready to cheese it.

I even got supplies in a MC business that I only kept running to supply the nightclub, so I cheesed it.

Probably nothing, either I never played this variation, or its a bug, but these guards were static, not patrolling. There was no trolley in front of the door.
