I don't see how any of that has explained how comparing GTA and the Sims shows someone up.

 

The way some choose to play GTA is extremely sim like. There is a clear comparison between the two.

 

How does pointing out the comparison show anyone up? You're laughing it off as being a stupid comparison without giving any kind of reason why it's a stupid comparison, I suspect in an attempt to belittle the comment because you do not want to accept that you/some people play GTA as a life simulation game.

No attempt to hide anything, Demonic. I'm very vocally a role player at times with my GTA. Always have been. (Are you even serious with this?).

 

You missed the point I'm afraid. My point is that people often use 'go play sims' as an insult to a passive player here, that's what I find daft. The games have some similar aspects, but this game offers far more diversity in how we play than the sims, naturally. It's a jack of all trades after all. And by assuming because I enjoy a role playing aspect here as much as many others, saying I should go play sims doesn't fit. Can't.

 

Too much to list, but can we heist, run missions, shoot cops/NPC's How we want on the sims? Clearly not. I kill regularly, boost cars, rob shops, and allsorts even though I am a passive player, and like to look good doing it, lol. Just a bit of simple fun. (And to create cool snaps).

 

The Sims IS a full on life sim game. This is, at best, a crime sim. But only in areas dude. This game does have an abundance of PvE too don't forget. So killing players or chasing them isn't all I have to do and yet I'm still not actually passive.

 

Clearly there's no comparison. It's meant as an insult, and you used it more than enough bub!

You read it as insulting? In this case, the suggestion was made as a suggestion. Someone is fed up of hostile players and wants to play a more passive life simulation game, the sims is the obvious answer. That is, if the player is unaware of invite only sessions and locked down publics.

There's a huge comparison. You want a life simulation game.

I've never used it as an insult, I don't believe there are any posts of mine where I've even mentioned the sims until this topic. And only then it was purely to flag up that your response to the mention of the sims was empty and pointless and simply an attempt to laugh off what you believe to be an insult in an attempt to belittle such a suggestion.

 

You want to live this fantasy life where you can roam freely around an open world city, run businesses, drive cars, play darts, golf etc. basically live a second life in a video game. You don't see how the comparison of that to the sims is a valid comparison? You honestly see that as an insult? You're too tightly wound if you find that an insult. What's wrong with the sims?

You make me smile dude, lol. There's nothing wrong with the sims or any game that suits those keen.

 

Me, I play GTA. Bit of what you said, and a whole lot more. As I said, there's areas that are similar, but only an idiot sees just that in this game. I want to enjoy it all, or all I can at least as some areas have been poorly created. Simple as that.

 

Anyway, I refuse to be pulled in by you again dude. Just 'ignore' me again please, lol. You know full well the intentions when folk say 'go play sims' is to belittle them and presume GTA is too much for the more peaceful/passive player. It's a line to bait.

 

I find it funny. And. (Rhetorical).

2 + 2 = 87?

 

You're talking about things that haven't happened or haven't been said.

 

Someone complains about GTA being toxic.

Someone else suggests a less toxic life sim.

You blow up and take offence suggesting comparison to the sims for a passive life sim, is an idiotic suggestion.

 

How on Earth anyone take offence to someone recommending the Sims is beyond me. I guess I must be missing something because I just can't see how that's such an offensive thing to do.

I'm not offended dude, I'm straight up laughing. I don't need a life sim as I want GTA, lol. Many ways to play, and I do, it's that simple.

 

Could say the same thing to the tryhards and trolls too. If all they want is a fish in a barrel sim, they should f*ck off to the fair, you'll get an actual teddy bear to cuddle then, lol.

 

Bye Demonic. (And stay gone please).

All from asking for more substance from an empty post. Such anger and hatred against this Dominic dude you seem to think I am. I don't even know who this guy is and don't exactly care. I'll stick to AH sub forum, less drama there.

Clearly, lol, as I showed with that bottom quote, people often do look to use that to offend others, if they can.

 

It's on others to laugh at twats like that, like you, to not get offended at that petty stuff, but realise they are speaking with a narrow minded, arrogant, foolish, troll. Same in-game. Win some, lose some. But often people say 'ahh, can't beat a cheat' or other crap. Anyway... Better go to Specsavers.

 

@ All. Yeah, I know I shouldn't bite. But it is really funny and I can't help but mock this fool. I'll leave the thread now and he can put on a show for another. No shame, but sorry for my part.

Ironic you mentioned grown adults and acting childishly earlier yet here we are.

 

I've not said how to play or not play any game. I questioned your post about just why does reference to the sims show someone up. A question that has not been answered either. The comparison is there as explained but you seem to want to avoid that and just post childish, offensive remarks - most likely because you're hung up on this Dominic guy you believe me to be.

Wack! Bully's are always in need of some attention. That's why they have nothing better to do but, bother someone who isn't paying any attention to them. Not even messing with them whatsoever. 

 But just like a little kid brat punk, they make a scene just so somebody will talk about them out of irritation. Those are the most pathetic GTA players, period!

Had that one time I simply went ghost organization a few blocks away from a tryhard. They ewo spammed the entire 3 minutes and I never went near them. Funny that people are so scared of getting killed by you, they ewo to give you the kill instead. Got 19 kills on them by doing nothing but driving around lol.

Tryhards and griefers are like the GTA Online equivalent of "can dish it but can't take it". Basically a bunch of hyprocrites with double standards.

 

"explosive sniper noob" while they're in a jet

"get out of your vehicle" while they live in their overpowered crap

"fight on the ground" while their definition of "ground game" is strafing like madmen and spamming explosives

Complaining about getting ganged up when they attacked you and your friends/crew members first, I mean, what did you expect?

 

A bunch of losers with zero creativity whatsoever: dress the same, play the same, talk the same like a bunch of drones from a cult.

 

Their "community" isn't even a community, it's just a bunch of children trying to expose each other for YouTube clout. "i exposed TheProfesional lzzzz" no one cares, not even Tupac.

 

They're basically bullies, who revel in ruining the game for everyone but flee away at the slightest sign of resistance. Bunch of cowards, you only stick to GTAO because you suck in any proper PvP game.

 

The best way to deal with such waste of digital space is to either ignore them (depriving them of their so craved attention) or giving them a taste of their own medicine with extreme prejudice. Kick them, report them, block them, they're not needed, the game would be way better if such scum didn't exist.

Well I can understand anyone who complains about the explosive sniper even (or especially) if he is flying a jet or other aircraft.

It's bloody ridiculous. So ridiculous that I refuse to use it, despite having it unlocked. A lot of people seem to only use the Explo-Sniper, the Marksman Rifle, the Explo-Shotgun and their beloved RPG these days. It has ruined groundcombat and aircombat and is one of the reasons why I hate freemode PvP.

Personally I love finding out somebody has explosive rounds in the heavy sniper if im on the ground, it basically means you have limited ammo and 2 shots to kill.

I mean, you can't exactly complain about me using Explosive Rounds on my Heavu Sniper if you're in a jet that has Explosive Cannons with way higher rate of fire and splash damage. It's basically the kettle calling the pot black.

 

For the record, I do carry Explosive Rounds but I use it mostly against aircraft in either PvE (it really helps against the helicopters on the "Merryweather pissing in your soup" Bunker sell mission) and PvP (jets are still broken and annoying in a world of explosive bullets and unavoidable missiles).

Remember when they nerfed the rhino instead of giving us something more overpowered to kill it. Well besides people sniping you from the side of the tank since the side wasn't solid. Had the Hydra and Lazer cannons been nerfed somehow like even removing the high splash damage range would have helped. Or making them go full speed at any height like when there above 1000feet. Or made the distance of the cannons like half. So dive bombers would have barely any time to pull up. Instead of adding that dumb homing launcher which was useless for those jets from the spin in the air bs, and they one shotted any helicopter instead. Than later they added the explosive sniper which is good for the hydra and lazer, fight fire with fire, but is super overpowered against any other aircraft, like poor helicopters were not already easy to take out. Than when was first added could one shot any player.

Hit the nail on the head. It’s a game, k/d doesn’t matter. What matters is having fun while playing. To me sometimes that means playing competitively against others, and sometimes I just want to relax with my friends. But I will probably never understand what’s fun about being a k/d warrior, blowing yourself up etc, all to preserve your k/d. Quite the contrary; it seems rather pointless to me. And when they do get killed it makes them rage more than I ever would care to. I just think it’s rather childish tbh.

 

Luckily, me and my friends are quite good at spotting them. If they go passive in ”our” session (meaning; where we’re in majority) they get kicked straight away. If they try and come after our product, we kick or punish them, I don’t care if it’s 10 vs. 1.

 

And I don’t bother with trashtalking, whatever they might say my standard answer is just ”lol ok”.

If they were never going to nerf the jet (which they should have done 4 years ago), then it needed an actual effective counter for folks on the ground. The explosive sniper is it.  Complaining about the explosive sniper in particular is absurd - the whole game is a house of cards teetering on the brink of collapse.  If you're gonna remove that one weapon, you also need to nerf the jets and like half a dozen other aircraft, and that's just for starters.

 

I think it's a pretty terrible and obnoxious weapon, to tell the truth.  But it's also a good survival tool because half the game is now terrible and obnoxious.

Yes the jets need a counter, but not a counter thats bloody OP against everything else. The chernobog for example is a great jet counter (its just a bit underarmored and the aiming angle is rather sh*te), without being OP against ground vehicles. 

The only really OP aircrafts are the Lazer and the Hydra and the Avenger (and maybe the Hunters Explo canon). Except those 3 everything can be rather easily countered with other aircrafts and other avilable weaponry.

There never was a need for a hitscan explosive weapon, thats basicly just, point, click and win.

Again, I think this is a weird hill to die on.  The explosive sniper is OP as hell, of course.  But if you're attacking someone in a jet - STILL the most OP single weapon in the game, useful in more situations by far than any sniper rifle - and they shoot you down with something else that you consider OP, how are you gonna complain about that?  Case in point, I got on this morning and immediately got attacked in the middle of nowhere by an off-radar jet.  He blew up my car so I had no transportation and wasn't in a spot where I could spawn anything else.  Then he started circling in the usual attempt to farm kills.  I popped him twice and that was that.  Now to his credit, he didn't message me and whine about it - but if he had, what was he going to say?  That I shouldn't have used my OP weapon to counter his?  Should I have jogged the eighth of a mile back to a road to spawn a Chernobog, which he would probably strafe as soon as he saw it?  No, I used the right tool for the job, and it worked.  And he still got two cheap kills on me, because the jet is still ridiculous.

 

If we are going to complain about anything, it shouldn't be the explosive sniper - it should be Rockstar's refusal to nerf the jet and their general insistence on trying to balance through power creep, rather than actually balancing the weapons they already had in the game.  It was a bad approach to a real problem and it should be no surprise that really all they did was replace the old issues with lots and lots of new ones.

The single most OP weapon in this game is the flak canon on the Anti-Air Trailer, since it f*cks up an insurgent in about 3 shots.

After that comes the explo sniper and then in third the jets.

 

What I am complaining about is that the explo sniper is also bloody OP against everything  that is NOT a Jet.

Every regular car goes boom in a single shot, it has zoom so you can blow up far targets, it has the option to shoot through walls with thermal vision and its insane against human targets because the time between shots is shorter than the time your target needs to get up after getting hit the first time.

 

Trying to balance something OP with something even more OP is a sure way to f*ck up the game.
