Next DLC Speculation Thread (Part 3)

[rollschuh2282]

I´m sorry if this has been mentioned before or something , but may I ask why the update for fixing the infernus C was 700 Mb big on PC (it was only 100 MB big on consoles right ? )

did Fun find something new in the files ?

they updated the update.rpf to update the version.txt.

the update.rpf does have a size of 700mb, and steam and the xbox does have file compression

^ Don't be so sure about transferring your current character from V to VI.

 

Look how transfers turned out this last time.

aslong as the consoles remain "clean", i see transfers as a viable option.

Still interested to know what this secret game they are working on is.

AGENT ofcourse!!!

 

 

they could do it like its done with Destiny and Destiny 2. You only keep your character modell but nothing that you own.

thats exactly what im expecting. character transfer, maybe the ranks and thats it.

Heh, nothing is currently clean in GTAO

Even my stats got f*cked up on several occasions because some stupid script kid dropped money on me.

I rather have them to start from scratch and implement dedicated servers next time instead of having the next online have anything to do with the current mess.

[CarimboHanky]

 

 

Gunrunning seems like its going to be the last big DLC for this game. Im sure there will still sort of be smaller DLC's like releasing more vehicles, but as for a big DLC I'm pretty sure this is the end

people have been saying this non-sense for quite a while now...

 

Cunning Stunts seems like its going to be the last big DLC for this game.

 

Bikers seems like its going to be the last big DLC for this game. Im

 

Imports/Exports seems like its going to be the last big DLC for this game.

 

 

once gunrunning is out and they announce yet another dlc, people would simply name that as the "last big update"

 

even a broken clock...

yea but those people saying that for import/export were just ignorant on the fact that one leaker on that other site said there would be updates planned till spring/summer.

 

as for those saying that cunning stunts could be the last update, well, that was pretty much before that leaker got credit of being legit.

 

I would be prepared for anything to happen after gunrunning comes out and the drip feeds all dropped(i really exoect the drip feeds as much as i expect the sun to come up tomorrow )

when i say clean i mean the ps4/xbone not being jailbroken and modmenus making their way into online. pc was a mess in the past, is a mess now and would be a mess on any future gta.

 

i agree on the dedicated servers.

well, sooner or later ps4 and xbone are gonna get screwed anyhow.

 

If rockstar wants a game that is clean they should provide the tools to do it.

[CarimboHanky]

 

Likely Agent I imagine. Or a new L.A. Noire.

I still want a cop/detective game like LA Noire but set in the present day.

Because I watched NCIS: LA alot.

 

Could just have 24 missions/episodes that end on a cliffhanger and then release season 2 like a DLC the next year.

Just like a TV show.

god no... i hate games that work on "episodes"... those are total cashcrabs.

once a console is broken, i dont think there is much R* can do to prevent it, other than releasing updates every couple days like they do on pc, changing codes to disable some of the menus for a few days, weeks.

 

i remember back in 2014 they were able to prevent ps3 modmenus from working for a few months, then heist were released and whatever fix they put in place was broken and menus were back online a few hours after heist update dropped.

The only reason behind "episodic" games is to hide the fact that the game isn't very long. So they chop it up and release the peaces a month apart.

 

But 24 episodes. That's 24 missions/cases. LA Noire had 26 total and it was still very long.

Now imagine instead of a cash-grab sequel next year, just 24 new cases with it's own twist and turns and again a cliffhanger at the end.

 

Still wouldn't sacrifice the base game and would prolonge it's lifespan. Something R* are experts at.

[Happy Hunter]

 

 

I can imagine it playing while following a military convoy. It definitely sounds army themed to me.

A large group of ground brethren march in a convoy of APCs, new tanks, and anti-air tanks. A Hunter hovers over looking out for them - honourable guardian that the Hunter is. An unidentified jet can be seen in the distance - it vaguely resembles an A10.

 

Then it cuts to a shot of an armed Titan, flying at high altitude. It drops a little nuke on a Ruiner 2000.

and my hydra swoops in and decimates your convoy

 

 

 

 

 

He specified there were a few AA LAVs. What now, smart guy?

 

 

 

Pretty sure these are your options...

Option A: bend over, grab your ankles and kiss your Hydra's poor ass goodbye

Option B: get distracted by the helicopter whilst the AA vehicles slowly shred you

Option C: fly away and realise that was a bad idea

 

 

 

My Tunguska swivels its turret and saws your Hydra in half while you lament how OP that thing against aircraft is.

 

 

 

Surprise! Here's me in this @ur hydra

 

 

 

 

As you can see, my convoy has you covered. Should you get by them (hint: you won't), you wouldn't beat a Hunter anyway. That beautiful guy can point straight up - no divebombing him.

 

 

 

Rockstar said "Wage war with the latest in high-powered military hardware". It didn't even say a stinking old attack chopper :]

 

 

I am not a "stinking old attack chopper".

Still think a Daimler Sd.kfz.9 with the 8.8cm Flak gun on the back would make for a more balanced AA platform than a modern SAM 4x4.

This is 2017, not Germany in 1940. FlaK vehicles would be horribly inefficient.

 

Also, weren't you the guy that said a Rustler would be impractical against jets? Pretty sure a second world war halftrack wouldn't be that much better, frankly. If you want a FlaK vehicle, the Fl.Pz Gepard is probably the better option. More armoured and probably more mobile.

88mm caliber. 8km range. Not effected by EMP or stealth.

There was an armoured version of the Famo as well, one that could shrug off frag grenades, and even survive a landmine at keep the occupants alive.

 

You are aware SAMs are only better than traditional AA at much longer distances, right? Distances that don't matter in GTA because everything has a range of about 1km. The shell for the Flak 18 is about as long as your leg, and just as thick. It was designed to rip apart aircraft and tanks. A Harrier would stand no chance.

 

A gun you have to aim and lead your shots with is far more balanced than a gun that fires half a dozen lock-on rockets that you can't dodge. SAMs might be cool, but it's a homing launcher up to 11. It requires no skill to operate, meaning anyone with one can shut down the skies indefinitely.

A WW2 era flak gun has a much steeper learning curve to operate. Meaning you can't just point, shoot, and empty the sky. Gives players a chance to retaliate. An insta-kill is not balanced.

 

And comparing two eras of AA and two fighter planes isn't comparable, but nice distraction. A more apt comparison would be to compare the cannons on a Spitfire to the cannons on a Harrier, and how they would do damage to each other's armour.

Yes they can.

Dedicated servers and a proper anti-cheat can come a long way....you really think most online games on PC are as full with cheats as GTAO ?

Man, not even close.

 

There are several things they can do to prevent cheaters, but they are simply incompetent, don't care, or most likely....both.

Well i think that episodic releases are a good thing for small dev companys to get some cash in during developement to pay the bills and to have more time for bug fixes and general quality improvements.

Also a game that cut into episodes can be pretty long (well atleast longer then many other games).

Life is Strange is a good example for that.

They developed a new episode after the previous one was done and released and everything worked like it should. I did not encounter a single bug.

And it was also pretty long (15 to 20 hours) thats about three times as long as any COD game for 1/4 of the price (LiS was 15 for all episodes and a COD is around 60).

 

But i guess that the wrong thread to discuss this.

^ Don't be so sure about transferring your current character from V to VI.

 

Look how transfers turned out this last time.

Rockstar could cash in on a lot of hype if the millions of players can transfer their characters to the next installment. Hype is what makes people preorder. The community deserves to carry over the character(s) that they put hundreds of real days of their lives into. The community dedicated themselves to GTAO and made it the titan of popularity that it is. Rockstar should let us transfer our character out of respect.

[CarimboHanky]

i was a pc player for like 14 years and quit pc because of cheaters and got tired of having to upgrade to keep up with games.

 

i know theres vac, punkbuster etc etc but still cheaters slip through the cracks.

[YipDip]

turn homing missile into a a guided missile instead, you have to hold the launcher at target rather than launching it and it does all the work no skill.

I (speaking for myself) don't get frustrated by cheaters, i rationalize it by thinking it as a way to up the difficulty... and most players are pretty bad so i welcome that challenge... there are times when a good player is cheating, it usuallly ends in some really engaging battles that i usually lose, but for me that's the only way of getting better... by losing.

I do not justify their actions tho they are scum who try to fool others but only end up fooling themselves into thinking they are better (that i will never understand). Then there's the troll cheaters (almost all of the gta cheating community) they are the ones who put godmode and just do it for sh*t and giggles and i kind of understand that a bit more than the ones who try to appear legit.

I really don't see how being able to transfer would create more hype than it would without. The people who've put in hundreds of real days of their lives will buy the next game no matter what. Just imagine the trailer dropping... that will be all the hype we need.

Sure, you might be attached to your character. But in life, you have to learn to let go. Nothing lasts forever. So let go, out of respect for new life.

I am imagining Gunrunning to be more like this

 

 

and less like this

 

 

 

Just a feeling, I think they are gonna channel more Fast and Furious vibes.

Im hoping its just like that, would be perfect if they can throw in some muscle cars too in the update.

 

Looks good to me. More cars...less aircraft.

No, we need more aircraft. Or more accurately, different aircraft. They've added like a dozen slight variations of the business jet and the executive helicopter and nothing else save for the Hydra, Besra, and giving more people access to the Dodo. We're way overdue for some new aircraft.

 

Cunning Stunts would've been a great excuse to give us something like a fast and shiny stunt Duster or a gyrocopter. The multiple rich people updates could've have given us all sorts of recreational aircraft, like a Staggerwing, or rare prototypes like the Bugatti 100P. Bikers could've given us little Cessnas and the like for drug smuggling. Import/export could've given us a new cargo plane (preferably one we could drive a car inside of) or that skycrane from SP. But nope, nothing but reskinned executive jets and choppers that are barely distinguishable in either looks or performance.

 

At bare minimum, Gunrunning should give us the Hunter, some sort of new fighter jet, and make the Lazer purchasable. Ideally we'll get a vintage dogfighter like the Rustler, and personally I think it needs a companion, maybe something modeled after a P-38. And a V-22 would give us a VTOL troop carrier, which could open up some new gameplay opportunities.

We need a WW2 interceptor/fighter, a Vietnam war-era amphibious troop/cargo helicopter, a Korean war-era amphibious light attack chopper, a WW2 dive bomber, a cheap gyrocopter, a cheap trainer aeroplane, and a mid 30s passenger aircraft.

Thing is i rather drive my youga classic in a full freeroam lobby then buying again a 2 mil plane supposedly intended to transport cargo not being able to do anything.

 

staggerwing same thing, looks great, but would you dare to fly it in freeroam ? let alone if you already got a mallard which has been buffed ?

 

Further i once read that requiring any plane to actually transport a vehicle safe from one place to an other requires a load of coding, i thus first of all do not see rockstar ever implementing such a vehicle

 

also calling the helicopters and planes we got reskins is pretty dumb to be honest, except for the golden aircraft none of the dlc aircraft look anything like each other.

 

like seriously, the complain that the volatus en supervolito look identical, or the volatus looking like a swift ?

 

Just no....just.....no.

 

Really, anyone who is actually even slightly interested in aircraft that is not per se meant to be used as an attack vehicle and actually looked at those vehicles will never claim such a ridiculous statement.

Why do you not want new aircraft?

I don't mean to attack you or anything, I'm just curious as to why you wouldn't want another piece of aircraft. I'm all down for another plane or helicopter, just as much as another gun or car.

[Mach1bud]

Let's not turn this into another aircraft debate alright guys.

[RedDagger]

And the talk about the next GTA, remember we have an entire section dedicated to that

[Malibu Club]

I don't see why some people are so eager to see the return of the Squaddie. The Barracks more than certainly fills in the role it would take. Not only is the Barracks larger and would be able to hold more cargo, it's also far more efficient for pushing vehicles out of the way. At most, the practicality I'd see in the Squaddie would be holding people in the back. Even then, there are far better military themed vehicles to transport people around such as either of the Insurgents.

 

 

Also, just noticed Mach is a mod now.

[Actlikeyouknow]

Since we are supposed to be running huge amounts of guns in the new update, I really hope the Roadtrain from GTA SA makes a return. The thing screams "Get the f*ck out of my way or I'll wipe you off the face of the Earth"

If you thought the Brickade could shove it's way through traffic, it would be nothing compared to this.
