I just fight them. I don't give a toss about my k/d, so I'm happy to die over and over to f*ck about with theirs. They hate it. I do what they do, spam ghost, BST, OTR, muggers, mercenaries. OP2s to take down theirs and their Deluxos, thermal vision, through-building shots. 

 

No wonder I'm always skint ha ha

 

 

Hey finally someone who can shed some light on the through building shots. In another thread we've been discussing this method. Because I know sometimes I'm being shot through buildings and mountains but I cannot figure out how to do it to the tryhards who use it against me. I can usually see people through buildings but I cannot shoot them. Whats the trick?

The other night i got trolled by 2 players i was after in a seabreaze (think thats what its called) 

 

Went after them in a savage and hunter and they just circled me non stop for around 20 minutes, i couldnt hit these pair for sh*t lol 

 

I could of just got a lazer or pyro but i was determined too get them with a chopper, in end i admitted defeat. That little plane gained my respect

Two days in a row I’ve made nightclub sales solo in sessions with about 8-10 players, I realize the risk but been doing it anyway because why the hell not, I’ve got money anyway.

 

Both times there’s been Mk2 Oppressors coming after me for no reason at all.

 

Backstory: Since day 1 I’ve always despised this player-type. I’ve always been a part of the 10% of the playerbase who are friendly at first sight, who don’t immediately pull a weapon when I come across another player. I’ve been killed while unarmed more times than I can count. But I’m also ruthless when it comes to revenge; if you kill me once while I’m defenseless and peaceful towards you, that means I’m free to treat you however I want as well. So if I kill you back 20 times after you’ve attacked me first, that’s all fair game in my book. Nevertheless, I’ve also received an infinite number of butthurt ”Why?” on those occassions, to which I usually don’t respond at all. I’ve made many players leave when they’ve released they dipped their fingers in the wrong honey-bin. I never attack someone while they’re carrying supplies or are making sales. Except if they’ve attacked me or my friends prior to it. I like to see myself as one of the good guys, but, as stated earlier, I take much joy in punishing tryhards and griefers. We all love to see the bully himself getting beaten to a bloody pulp, don’t we?

 

Anyway. On the first sale I ghosted and the tryhard on his Oppressor lost me. I finished the sale and went after him on my own Mk2, but because he heard the lock-on he left the session. Just like that. Tough guy, eh?

 

The 2nd night pretty much the same thing happened. I saw him coming from a mile away so I stepped out of my Speedo. He stopped away from my line of sight, so, I ghosted. He started flying and I could continue with my sale. When I was finished I speedglitched to him and shot him down and then I sniped him a couple times from the rooftops, and then he went passive. He was obviously triggered because he tried pushing my Mk2 off the roof. Like I’d be bothered by that, lol. It was very late so I left the session not long thereafter.

 

So yeah, that’s the tryhards for you. They don’t miss a chance to attack easy prey but when the tables are turned they don’t want to fight anymore. I’d rather be a friendly player from the start, I get much more joy (almost so much it makes me question myself) from punishing those who deserve it, than building my pointless k/d up by attacking defenseless players. As I’ve said, I’ve always despised those players. They can defend themselves with any kind of ”PvP is central to the game”/”Go play My Little Pony”/”Just doing what the game tells me to” but in the end, 9 times out of 10, they are the true cowards. Spoken purely from experience.

 

Come to think of it, in a way I’m glad they exist because I love punishing them, lol

 

Edit: Before someone gets triggered, yes, I knew there’d probably be Oppressors coming after me, been playing for 5 years and I know what it’s about. I’m not mad about it. I just want to illustrate how people like to believe they’re grade A predators while sitting on the Mk2 but when it comes down to it they usually suck.

^^THIS RIGHT HERE^^ I play the exact same way but I must admit if you come at me fast in a OP mkii I consider it self defense if I hit you first.  Which is why I'm very conscious of how I approach or fly near someone in the mkii because they are usually shoot first ask questions later kind of people who use it.

You must have about 2 city blocks with no obstacles in your way, in your scope they don't appear as a person more like a red blurry square. Try thermal goggles and put advanced scope on the heavy sniper for better zoom with thermal.

 

I also like thermal goggles to quickly spot roof snipers because they stand out like a sore thumb as no npc's are on a rooftop.

It’s something to with the building collision detection when you are at distance from it I think. You need to be some way away (two blocks)

Are you doing this in 1st person or 3rd person?

You can see and shoot through anything with the thermal scope/goggles. Man.. I've been shot through bridges+buildings+roads+rocks, nothing matters. Only way out is if you do it back to them

Yup but have you tried to do it? There is definitely a "trick" to it. Because I can see people through buildings but when I shoot at them it does nothing.

Ok I wonder if 1st person is required for this glitch.

No trick to it so long as you are far away, just unload the heavy sniper with explosives and they are dead

Are you also in 1st person or 3rd parson because I've done that many times with zero kills so there has to be something specific I'm missing.

Any rounds will work but I do believe you have to use first person. Took me a while to figure it out.

@Talisman_83 saved me a cheap skrike

[US Of A]

I fight the grefiers using every vehicle and weapon i have and every dirty trick in the book such as using BST, EWO. and OTR. If for one reason or another the grefier wins or if i'm doing crates, I/E or another money making job, i just disconnect my ethernet cable and reload GTA Online.

I was on a lobby just now where some person was speaking into the mic a bunch of IP addresses of his enemies, and even proceeded to say home address and make fun of him/her.

 

first off, how is that possible?

 

secondly, that crosses a line big time.  Does Rockstar care about that?

 

can LE do anything?

 

thays some psycho sh*t.  It’s one thing to do a little trash talk, but what this person did is freaking threatening.

I mostly go passive or change session. But when I'm in the mood and there's a jet-griefer I snipe them with explosive ammo. Then they usually cry and whine about noob-ammo.........

Well let me see.....didn't you just fly around with a minigun WITH EXPLOSIVE ammo ???? Fckn CryHard......

 

 

 

That always kills me when I see a jet griefer and I blow him out of the air with explosive rounds, then he's like "pussy using explosive rounds"! I mean come on you were killing lvl 20 somethings in a jet. smh

 

[Blasterman4EVER]

Remind myself that they are miserable, and that I am not.

Then I cause a chemical reaction in my glass delivery device, squeeze my main squeeze, let the cat outside, and take a drink of ice water while I try to remember what I was doing before they wasted my existence.

[Guest]

Solo-, invite only-, crew only-, friends only sessions. For sales, public solo sessions. That's how to deal with all of them, including cheaters.

I tryhard to grief them. Pun intended.

 

Lately with a MkII but sometimes my Akula or my new passion, a Lazer. Most of these guys are on MkIIs so that's the weapon of choice these days. Before that I could take out most players with an Akula except those in jets, but then I'd just try to ram those with the Akula. They pop like a zit.

 

I LOLed at @HARBUJAHN...

It tends to help combat griefers if you're one yourself.

 

My new favourite toy is the good old FL Ruiner against Op MK2s.

Unlockable-onto, best missile tracking in the game, built like a tank.

 

Leathered 2 broomstick boys the other night who kept respawning their MK2s and coming after me again and again.

Never laughed so hard

 

Though, there's something quite satisfying about taking out a new gen broomstick with a Lazer.

When you lead them high up, gain some distance then divebomb to the ground and steadily make your way back up to them to cannon them.. when they realise they're sitting ducks due to their inability to decrease altitude quickly, its golden

Hmm, so the trick is that you have more time to aim, also sky makes spotting easier?

Hang out with crew and hope they save your ass, worked for me

 It's more a case of, like the Deluxo, both vehicles can't descend quickly and can't aim directly below them consistently.

By and large, they're vulnerable in that position from upward attackers.

But yes, more time to aim and certainly during the day it's easier to spot. 

I like to lead them to the beach as they stand out perfectly against the white sand in the clear sun.

r sun.

Well, you got the can't aim directly below them part right, but the deluxo can turn off hover/flight mode and drop like a rock. I do it often.

 

And come to think of it, you CAN point the deluxo down while falling with scary accuracy.

I know, though regardless if you've turned off hover flight mode and falling fast, if I'm below you you're dead.

 

If someone managed to kill me via free falling whilst pointing downwards then I'd commend them.

[Display Name]

Always go passive after you kill them so they can't kill you in revenge, even if you died more than them. Not having the last kill always makes them mad lol.
