Next DLC Speculation Thread (Part 3)

A repair tool like in battlefield would be awesome too.

For the very first time (and finally), you'll enter the APC on its roof!

Previously you just entered it through a door, while the hatches were just... There.

 

-images-

Yeah, as soon as I noticed it the other day I was so hyped that I instantly edited the APC's wiki page with that information, lol. I gonna say that the Cadillac Gage Commando doors looked good in it, but because of their locations the seats were moved too much behind, which not only was not realistic but would not have allowed the use of the first pearson view. I also wonder what will happen to the people standing in the side-steps when this thing is moving on water, I guess it would be a very fun ride. Edited May 28, 2017 by RedDagger

fwiw nearly every apc in history has the door on the back, because generally that's the side with your mates on and the other guys tend to be irate

I highly doubt you would use the side rails in the online version just because it's impractical, you're buddy is driving an APC (Armed Personnel Carrier) and instead of getting inside the armored bits you just hang off the side, it just doesn't make sense.

Normally I would agree but, in this circumstance, it makes literally zero sense, even the gta 4 APC had people get inside of it, which I would hope works the same way in online, but to be fair I'm also hoping for a rear door that's usable Edited May 28, 2017 by RedDagger

Actually, despite its name that's not a true APC, it's more like a scout car: the real life BRDM-2 only has 4 seats inside, and one of them is the gurret standing up on the turret. If you consider the space taken by the front seats, the turret in the middle and the whole back filled by the engine you'd see that there's no space for passengers. They modified the sidesteps from the TBOGT model to make them two, so I think that there are high chances that it will be able to seat 2 people inside and 6 on the sidesteps.

well if you just press the "enter vehicle button" the player enters the apc.

 

if you hold that button the player hangs on the sides.

 

could work like that.

[Gridl0k]

An APC with 2 on the inside and 6 hanging on for dear life has kind of failed quite hard no?

 

I'm not even sure the chars would stay hung on if you went feet wet, they'd just get washed off.

Yep, that's how most of the side-steps vehicles work I think.

Calling it "APC" on TBOGT was the original issue that caused this confusion. Just to clarify, they can't add a back door in any way, the space was pretty small from the start (you can notice that the angle on the back back makes it smaller) and that's were the engine is as shown by the grills on the top.

Really it depends on the variant of the BRDM-2 it could be any of the Polish variants (removed belly wheels that were on the earlier Soviet models) which allowed for space for an extra 2 soldiers.

 

Edit: Also is it possible that it's a mashup of the Fennek and BRDM-2 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fennek

Edited May 28, 2017 by spence2345

[Alvarez]

It akways looked to me like a mashup of BRDM-2 and Cadillac with its high clearance, the Fennek has a really low, almost sportcar profile.

[dot.Error]

Stop posting anything about that 4chan guy. We know he's a fake. Everything he's said so far has been wrong.

 

Or did I just miss the trailer?

What? The post above you talks about the legit 4chan guy - Rockstar fa**ot. There are 2 4chan guys currently. One is fake, another one leaked last 3 DLCs like a month before they came out.

 

Legit 4chan guy confirmed that the Bully 2 is not happening. Yan was lying or got fake info (he never leaked anything big anyway)

Yeah, it's a mashup of the BRDM-2 and the Cadillac Gage Commando. Adding a Fennek back door to make it transport more passengers would still be problematic, since it's a very small door, and passengers would have to enter/leave one at a time like with the Buses, taking a lot of time. Add that to the fact that the APC's engine is located on the back and that the APC's back is even smaller than the Fennek's and chances of it happening are even lower.

 

EDIT: I think that we might still get some proper armored vehicle with the ability to transport several players inside in this update. The AA half-truck might even get an unarmed variant with a door on the back, just like the APC is getting both a classic and an AA variant.

Is it at all possible we're overlooking the possibility that R* might just "hide" the engine as in make it non-existent so as to make it an APC instead of a scouting vehicle or a lightly armored assault vehicle?

Can i get the credit about that fact ( getting in the APC from top ) , its like i'm the first one mention it (: .

Here is your internet credit stranger.

[Alvarez]

I tend to believe that we get the only one APC and the turret will be a customisation part.

 

If we buy 2 different APCs, they are ours at our disposal and we can summon free of charge one for mayhem, another for dealing with aerial griefers.

 

But if we switch the turrets, we pay, let's say 5000 bucks. And this is Rockstars plan to keep us spending money just to switch to another mode.

This would also mean we've only seen 3 vehicles, as opposed to 4. So, in a way I kind of hope you're right. Then that means they'll probably have more up their sleeve.

 

If they're doing another newswire post (don't know if they said they would?) when would it be likely to arrive?

i realy don't understand why you are still so scared that the screens are all there will be in the update?

 

even if there is no more info,we should still be 200% sure that we will have way more vehicles in the update.

 

it's just a teaser.

Not really, I wrote it down both here and on the Gunrunning thread like 10-15 minutes after the newswire post came out.

The APC's engine is visible from the grills on the top of the back, from which smoke comes out.

[Tonguegirl]

 

I hope the vehicles can be used in Contact Missions. I see no reason why they shouldn't be.

Still want to use a ruiner 2000 in contact missions

 

I think that will happen eventually. They brought the DoD in and a bunch of other things that at one point probably seemed like they would never happen (2 X $ Heists for instance). I think they were pushing the special vehicle missions, but even they must see that those missions are extremely unpopular. Maybe if they open up the Ruiner for contact missions they can entice more people to buy one.

The cut files reassure me quite a bit though. They give me special vibes.

Yeah, that's a possibility. Unfortunately, knowing rockstar, installing the AA turret is probably going to cost A LOT. One thing's for sure, I'd keep the classic turret.
