Next DLC Speculation Thread (Part 2)

[rtie]

It's also in the name of the game ^

Kinda surprised we didn't get an advanced version of repossession from the start, but I'm happy we're getting a cool design.

I am mostly excited just because it seems, well, cooler to steal cars than collect crates.

 

Sure, it was a nice touch that we can see what we stole in the warehouses, and the office get's filled up with stuff. Idk, I just think stealing high end cars is a cooler criminal thing to do.

And it's the inevitable direction of a successful car theif. Started at the bottom and move higher up.

 

Very fitting for the GTA title!

I'm really wondering what these cars are going to sell for. Stealing them is going to be free (according to R* F*) and the max profit you can get from one crate is 18K. But I don't see a T20 or a 811 selling for only 20k.

Who says we will be able to steal the high end cars ?

The screenshots Rockstar released say we are.

How, I thought R* wiped all the modded accounts, including mine

On my main account I dropped myself a nice 3 Billion as I'm a cheapskate who won't buy SCs to set myself up - on PS3 maybe 2 years ago?

I've used script packs several times on PC [and I've been banned twice so I have to be a very good boy now] but my fortune was never removed so I've always assumed I was just caught for flying about and spawning solo vehicles as I didn't drop cash for myself or others on PC.

I guess I just avoided money related cheating after transferring to PC.

Ah. PC. That explains everything. I'm a PS4 fgt myself

But isn't that basically just a reskin of capture missions?

Steal car, deliver car, get paid.

The newswire has two screenshots. One with a modified Tyrus surrounded by armed guards and one of a Warehouse filled with a modified Mamba, 811, Coquette Blackfin, Sultan RS, Banshee 900R and a Tampa. I'm pretty sure that there's a big chance we're not only going to be stealing virgos and gauntlets.

Lol its definitely only high end cars otherwise it would be a Simion DLC

[CarimboHanky]

 

The wait for this update is horrible

i think the rogue dev spoiled the thing for us way too early haha

 

 

It would be a little odd if they announce the release date on Monday and it's literally the next day.

they have done that a few times in the past.

 

 

There's something I've been wondering about the office garages... how is the game going to render up to 60 cars at the same time?

 

Even on PC, if I spawn that many cars at once, the game starts to sh*t itself. Unless R* pulls off some sorcery there probably is going to be a loading screen between floors.

20 cars per floor, use elevator to see the next 20 cars, etc etc it wont have to render all 60 at once.

 

similar things may apply the car warehouse for stolen vehicles as its said to hold 40 cars, instead of spawning all 40 cars at once, they could divide the warehouse be divided into 2 20 car rooms, spawn 20 in 1 room, use door animation to move to the other room spawning the other 20 cars.

 

 

Do we EVER had a similar situation were rockstar ended up announcing the date and trailer 1 day before the realease?

 

flight school update had announcement and trailer less than 24 hours of it release, so yes its not a first.

We're probably the distributor so we won't be getting the full price but we'll be selling in bulk so we'll still get a very large sum as we sell onto the middleman who probably mods them and gets them out of the country to find a potential buyer.

The screenshots Rockstar released say we are.Correction...those cars are shown...but who says we are not gonna be buying them and getting them delivered at a random location while afterwards we first need to mod them up at a mod shop and then deliver them to an other random location ?

 

Or something like that.

 

Even if not the case...i once stole a super diamond for simeon only getting 7000

 

Edit: that being said...if the money i can earn is 3 times as much as i can lose...i will be interested...if not...i rather go and steal cars from anyone stupid enough trying this sh*t out in a lobby that has me in it...people that stupid do not deserve better

Since the whole process will be pretty lengthy compared to CEO crates and much more valuable i expect to make very atleast 50k per sell? Hopefully much more im being conservative ....wouldn't be surprise if we end up getting over 100k cuts from some vehicles

[Gnocchi Flip Flops]

Well I think I've got enough money to buy every vehicle I want day one now.

[CarimboHanky]

ceo crate jobs added guns, drugs, jewelry,fake money and other electronics to our office, making a mess out of them, get ready to see some car parts, car magazines and receipts come tuesday...

Iguess your first one is the Dewbauchee? Mines gonna be the Progen (hopefully like an 670Lt) and the new "old" elegy. Then the warehouse for starting the bussiness and a sneaky 20 car garage.

[iSaint9]

This definitely looks like an update that fits the name of this game.

 

Hopefully we'll get something tomorrow, Monday.

Edited December 11, 2016 by Compton Menace

Does anyone think that maybe there will be an aspect of waiting for stuff to process in the warehouse like with Bikers? For example, instead of growing weed, the mechanic in the mod shop may have to fix the car you stole in some way and there's a set time he's given to do that. I doubt this will be implemented but do we have any information suggesting it won't be?

Didn't Rockstar Bundle of Sticks say there will be stairs to get to each level?

 

Elevator would make more sense if the rendering really is that big of an issue.

Maybe it's not due to rendering. Maybe it's just an aesthetic choice coupled with the ability to charge for each level instead of one big unit.

Me to brother. Feels good don't it, actually earning the money along side furthering your GTA muscle memory I remember getting so much better at driving in traffic when grinding Sightseer prior to FAFF..

If they're all in content creator I'll test em, probably which ever looks best first. I'll come to this forum to decide which cars they did a good job designing and which suck via appreciation threads. Every one I like I'll buy all at once. Edited December 11, 2016 by Scaglietti

i dont remember ever reading him saying nothing about stairs.

 

elevators is the way to go, not only that animation would give the game more time to render the cars but its more convenient too. walking up 3 floors...not cool!

In all reality it will likely be an elevator.

 

But if there was an option for stairs I wouldn't mind the hike! It would be cool to access my entire showroom without any delay.

inb4 there's stairs, but when you walk up to them you get an animation of your character walking up the flight of stairs, the screen blacks out, and then you see an animation of your character finishing their climb up the stairs and stepping onto the next floor. Also I'd expect the Car Warehouse to involve some kind of wait before you can cash in the $$$. I don't know, maybe the mechanic will have to switch plates on the car, the VIN numbers(or something), respray it, etc. Or even something as simple as waiting for the heat to go away.

 

I'd be really surprised if I could sit down, launch the game, steal a $800k car and sell it immediately. I'm also thinking the sales will be done so that we're not actually driving the car. Maybe the car will be loaded in a Brickade, as it looks big enough to hold a supercar inside, maybe it'll be in a container hooked to a Skylift... (or Cargobob). Or a ramp truck. Otherwise it'd be fairly easy for a skilled driver to grab a supercar and make himself near impossible to pull out of the car and steal it. And I just don't expect R* to give us easy missions like that. They could also reuse the "take" thing from Pacific Standard. Any hit to your transport vehicle will lower your take as the cars inside become damaged. Or at least any big enough hit, it'd be incredibly annoying if you flattened a small stop sign in your Brickade and your shipment value went down 20k

 

Also I wish this would turn out to be more profitable than Heists. I really, really don't want to do this for a month or two before I have to revert to farming PSJ so that I can afford the next update. Seriously, I'm already inclined to AFK and just be lazy wherever possible in those setup/finale runs.
