The B*tch & Moan Thread (Part 3)

[VitoCorleone1992]

What i didn't understood from the newswire is if for those 200k you have to do the challenges mentioned or if it can be anyone. I would say anyone.

Stupid Merryweather, even their debris hates me.

I was selling Nightclub goods yesterday and blowing the hell out of them with my proximity mines. But then one of them got too close before it exploded and pelted my van with flaming debris. Which set my van on fire and it exploded and took out my last delivery.

Lots of ways to set things on fire in GTA. Any way to put them out?

Only the firetruck or water. Also, get the level 3 armor upgrade it's ugly but functional... during sales.

I mostly use the Bullpup Rifle MK2, it has the superior ROF, the dmg is good but it's not that accurate, but if you are used to it, it's much more deadly than any of the other Assault Rifles. I use it for PVP and PVE. I only use the Combat MG MK2 to take down helicopters, or if there are many cars with enemies inside it. While riding a motorcycle or using a boat i always use the SMG MK2. In cars i always use the AP-Pistol, because it's more accurate than the Micro-SMG and it has more bullets in the magazine, and does more dmg. Of course i also use Pump Shotgun MK2 and Heavy Sniper MK2 with explosive rounds. I sometimes also use the Desert Eagle, or one of the 3 revolvers just for fun. The Pistol MK2 i mostly use for all stealthy freeroam missions, if i source cars, or buy crates or whatever, or if the target is too far away the regular Sniper Rifle.

 

I wish the AK would be stronger, the heavy rifle too. I mean they should have 7.62 mm ammo, the other rifles have 5.56 mm afaik, well it would make sense if the weapons with larger caliber would do more dmg. Desert Eagle should one hit most NPC's but it doesn't. that also doesn't make much sense. I can only hope, that pistols and rifles with larger calibers do more dmg in GTA VI. This will never be changed in current GTA.

 

I like the look of the AK MK2, it sucks that it's so weak. I would probably only use that weapon if it were stronger.

Like it's SA version where it's the only weapon matching the power of the minigun per shot, that weapon too lost a lot of power.

 

140 damage, that's what the rotating gun option on the insurgent pick-up, etc should be (real business) .

 

They should have made the assault rifle the most powerful per shot of the og trio to give it some edge and there is a surprising lack of weapons without damage reduction and the assault smg is too weak compared to rifles.

 

Actually, they don't play enough with zoom power and apparently statistics in general.

I've been doing battles and events/challenges pretty much non-stop for the last 6 weeks (for the wiki).

 

Here's some data for you:

 

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/473141281929953290/973567157625561128/unknown.png

 

Notes: Mostly done in "Private" public lobbies (Windows firewall-protected after all 4 accounts joined).

3 - 4 accounts used simultaneously (only 3 for quite a while as one of my PCs was out of commission).

Each session long enough to trigger 8 - 16 events (Battles alternate with Event/challenge with 20 minute cooldown - now 9 minutes)

Not all events/battles participated in, but triggered and timer expired.

150 Battles and 154 Events/Challenges logged (data up to 2 days ago), but I have done about 20 more of each since.

 

TL:DR

You have about a 12.5% chance of one of King Of The Castle/Kill List/Hot Property/Criminal Damage/Checkpoints, otherwise you'll get a "challenge".

These will alternate with a Business Battle where you have a 25% chance of it being either Luxington or a Factory Raid (Cluckin Bell/Foundry/Rogers Scrap).

 

Aircraft Carrier is 75% for me.

Not even f*cking joking, EVERY f*cking time I see the alert I see the crates there. They have to know that people usually ignore that, there's something that makes it more popular than the rest for sure

I did a Kill List a couple hours ago, 85K is not too shabby for that I guess. It spawned on an invite only session with 4 players.

It's my favorite, I do get pissed off when it's the Valkyrie one though. Even IF somebody joins, chances are that they're going to either suck or grab the miniguns instead of the cannon

 

I can never remember which ones are the Valkyries as I'm unfamiliar with the northern spawn points, I know where the tanks are though.

Turns out the Test Drive Mamba's missing mods don't carry over when you buy it. Well that's a shame...

I think we got enough of car business DLCs, first we had import export business then we got Autoshop Client business.This is repetitive and redundant.A Legit FastFood business with Sandwich making mini games would be great.We make sandwiches for VIPs,they enjoy them with Garlic Chilli or Ketchup,and then feel dizzy and when they wake up,Their expensive Michael Jackson's Glove is missing from the Trophy Box/Shelf.Its Legit cash from Sandwich and a little extra(million bucks) from an "ordinary" glove.

Does it make you fireproof? I've got the bulletproof tires, and haven't had problems on being too shot up with just the level 1 armor.

 

[AUScowboy]

Damn, they're skimping out hard on the event weeks bow huh? Surely they don't think that will entice players towards GTA+? Soon it will probably get insultingly bad, no more login items for we plebs, $6 a month for two shirts, a few liveries and some decent money bonuses on fun and worthwhile activities.

It makes you explosion resistant. At the highest level armor you will be resistant to 3 or 4 explosions.

Well, that was the reason I started keeping tally, because my perception was the same, at least 50% Carrier...

But the data revealed it was a false perception. There HAVE been sessions where I have had nothing but Carrier, and of the first 12 I tallied, 6 were carrier, so I thought my perception was being bourne out in the stats.

I had 37 indvidual sessions, and there were 10 that had no Carrier at all (one of those had 3x Cluckin Bell though, so just as bad).

 

Of course, a caveat is... I have only been tallying sessions that are populated with my own 4 accounts max... it could be possible that those newer battles (Factory and Carrier were added more recently) are more prevalent in more populated sessions.

And yet people want more.....

I wouldn't mind if the guns brought something new to the table. Like at least on a level of stats

like stat-wise the heavy rifle added in the contract dlc is pretty much just a carbon copy of the advanced rifle. Why can't it be the best-in-slot assault rifle for damage per shot is beyond me.

[Shadowfennekin]

It's bull those that did the RP exploit aren't getting reset.

I'd have LAUGHED at everyone stupid enough to get banned over something as utterly pointless as RP

"We are aware of some players who managed to migrate illegitimately high RP levels from the previous console generation to PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X|S. Players who migrated illegitimate RP levels have had their accounts corrected and we have upgraded our migration processes to prevent future illegitimate migration issues."

Rank literally means nothing lol, maybe more rank based rewards are coming?

Usually when they say "we did correct their accounts" means: we empty the bank account. I would say.

Edit: @Crateman, at least we pc players don't need migrate. Imagine our legit plus levels 1000 catch R* attention... That's why i always say that idk why R* didn't put the limit lvl when all the unlock requirements were met.

If they put me back at level 120, I'd be singing praises!

 

Level 1000's get bullied and harassed more than anyone else. "Free money pls" "Money drop" "U hacker!" "You have been kicked by another player in session for simply existing"

[Insoluble Fiber]

I think level 200 is the last significant level as its when you get final upgrade..? So being 200 and 8000 is literally the same i guess.

Very odd that they went after RP,

it's just a "bodystyle" 0 Mamba, with all extras set to "null", it's possible to do that since 2017 through: merges, trainers and "buy `n crash game" method on PC.

Anybody else get a random $500k bonus? I don't have GTA+ and I can't remember a free $500k bonus in any recent event week. Trying to figure out where its from.

Eh, it's not something that costs them Shark card sales. Shocked they even did anything about it period since RP really offers no benefit after a certain level and they don't care about actual game breaking bugs that have been in the game for years.

[needforsuv]

I wonder if the PS5 files will get decrypted first or E&E gets announced and comes to pc first...
