Next DLC Speculation Thread (Part 4)

[Happy Hunter]

I will never understand why people are so eager to get more aircraft in GTA games.

 

But then again maybe I'm still sore from experiences with the truly useless POS that was the Dodo in GTA III and the horrible radio controlled helicopters in Vice City

But at least you're open to things you don't understand (I think?).

 

Some are very close-minded and often discriminate.

Come on, LL! On the forums most old timers (25+) were very critical in reception of Gunrunning. And "non-GTA, wrecked balance, immature stuff and paywalls" was a big common denominator. In the game itself, just enable voice chat and listen, a lot of kids.

 

Since 2013 GTAV/ O was my daily driver and one of two games I played (Forza is another one), clocked more than 1000 hours back in console days and some on PC. Now, I'm more and more at my cave playing actual Pinball or chilling with wife trying to learn French by watching new wave movies.

I dunno, I have not been doing any research on how its was received tbh...I was skeptical of Gunrunning b4 release but was pleasantly surprised when it dropped, thats my personal experience tho and every1 should not feel this way...

 

I play with mic enabled all the time...I hardly hear kids apart from holiday times....besides I never sed kids do not play, I was playing gta way b4 I was of age....I do not feel however the content is catered to "12 year olds" and my point on that was that not all 12 year olds share the same interests...

 

is the game perfect? no, is any update perfect? no, are they downs sides to the game and dlcs? of course but overall I enjoy the game, its that simple since its just a game which I choose to play...thats why I was asking hunter what exactly would make him enjoy gta...and to explain the 12 year old comment, 12 year olds play yes, anywhere between 12+ you would be surprised how mature some kids are and how immature some adults are....keeping in mind it is most likely adults who will bother to contact R* and make requests (assuming they listen to fan requests....who knows really)

I think we SHOULD get a new and better aircraft update as we now have plenty of ground tanks now let's go for some air tanks. We have paper thin aircraft which is a known fact. (sorry for the long post, I got a bit excited when thinking and searching about such aircraft that gta online deserves.)

 

 

why not give us a hulking beast in the skies, an air type kuruma maybe which is obviously unarmed but can carry vehicles around. Perhaps a bob custom?

 

 

 

 

 

Also would be awesome to have the futuristic, sleek looking RAH-66 that sweeps through the skies with the hydas cannon maybe.

 

 

 

 

 

and ofcourse, our very own air MOC that could be turned into auto-pilot mode when reaching beyond the clouds that gives us access to either new special vehicles or our full collection of personal vehicles with a one time only chute for when dropping out the sky!

 

 

 

 

 

We can't forget about having our very own modern, sleek and sophisticated jet such as the F-22

 

 

 

 

 

When thinking about aircraft you can't forget the A-10 and rockstar would be insane not to add this classical beast in the skies

 

 

 

 

 

How can we even talk about aircraft without mentioning the B2 Bomber? this aircraft would undoubtedly be need in this update

 

 

 

 

 

and finally the one and only, the old timer that has been with us since the beginning and is already in the files!! (which sounds so haunting) no introductions needed

 

 

 

 

cool stuff and that but guys guys lets not get too helisexual please...this is next DLC not the wishlist thread

 

 

 

I'm an all rounder update guy but feel as though aircraft have been left in the dust for a long time now and needs to be heard instead of thrown into one thread as a beacon of hope.

Instead of in the appropriate thread?

 

I feel my post is more fitting here since we are talking about a future update. Given the fact we have unreleased aircraft, and that we have had plenty of ground assault vehicles in recent. The probability, to counter this is high enough to speak about a potential update based on aircraft. We speculate about all types of vehicles here, even if they do indeed have their own thread. So why Is talking about aircraft potential in the future not relevant here?

So you speculate we will get all that as opposed to just wishing we would?

Feels like the flow of content has been at the pace of a snail. It feels bad that we were all excited for gunrunning for months and it wasn't all it was cracked up to be. GTA Online and Rockstars interest in online gaming (Red Dead Online) is killing their creativity for singleplayer support. Every update rockstar ever made for GTAO has been underwhelming and involved no risk, no risk = no innovation. The last time we had something innovative in GTAO was when we could buy a personal super yacht and set it as a spawn location, living out on the ocean. THAT was impressive, that was NEW. THAT was years ago.

Innovation and progression is what the gaming industry was built on. Now its all about releasing unfinished games so you can plan out DLC and microtransactions. Integrity is rare in this industry and rockstar certainly does not have it. This stale formula of supercars, expensive properties, fetch quests and new melee weapons is boring and passive. At tis point only a map expansion, zombie DLC or a new set of heists would be worth getting hyped about. There was a time when I was hyped for a LSPD update but thinking about how that would be now, it would be like all the other organization updates. Dress up as a cop, gain access to police vehicles, kill your typical gang members NPCs and bring back the drugs they had. I can go do all of that right now, in fact we have already been doing exactly that since 2013. I'm done being fooled and getting hyped thinking that the next update will be different or unique. gunrunning was the make or break update to see if rockstar had any original ideas and clearly they don't. The worst part is when rockstar spends months creating an update with this formula and pretends that's not repetitive or a reskin of the previous update. I'm going to laugh my ass off when the next update is another stunt race or a new business "opportunity" with dripfeed vehicles lock away. Based on rockstars track record, I don't think they are capable or confident to take a risk and break away from their boring formula. I think they just want to sit on their ass and milk the same cash cow they have been for years. They are NOT the best in the industry as so many on this forum praise them to be. This is not the rockstar I loved 10 years ago with GTA IV.

Wait, you expect them to innovate between free online updates?

 

Guarantee that the good stuff is held back for GTA6.

I'm not wishing here, I'm happy with what we have received so far. I'm saying from what we have seen with updates, aircrafts deserve another shot and if that is true the vehicles I mentioned in my post are popular enough to think they could be included in such update.

I hope the next thing isn't a continuation of any current thing in the game already.

 

Come to think of it, I think they have a clean slate! It's a wildcard of opportunity.

i cant be the only one that wish for a simple cars and clothes dlc like back in the day...

 

make a bunch of cars and clothes and throw them into the game, no gimmicks, business, fetchs missions like the hipsters update.

[LL Cool L]

I will never understand why people are so eager to get more aircraft in GTA games.

 

But then again maybe I'm still sore from experiences with the truly useless POS that was the Dodo in GTA III and the horrible radio controlled helicopters in Vice City

I get it, its a sandbox game, gta has developed over the years and have grown to include more and more vehicles...people who are into air vehicles want to experience that in the best sandbox game out there....however this IS a driving game and for a driving game there is a wide variety of aricrafts as it is....I mean the strongest weapon and fastest vehicle is an aircraft....

 

what is annoying is the constant reminding that they want this, the constant redirecting every thread to it and the stance that the game is rubbish until one heli is added....its childish

 

 

edit correction, its a sandbox game with its roots in driving...

Edited July 17, 2017 by LL Cool L

I find the passive aggressive insults and bait from trolls more childish to be honest.

 

Especially considering I haven't mentioned the vehicle in question here.

I agree on the driving but gta has evolved from much more than that. I'm a car guy, I prefer car updates over any update but I also have a love for aircraft and within all fairness gta online is and will be even more land sea & air. We need to realize that gta online is a sandbox for all vehicle types and players. Give the players what they want and don't discriminate lol

As far as I'm concerned (and as someone currently replaying GTA III, and mopping up all the side activities early on, before all the various factions start shooting on sight - ! ), the GTA III Dodo is just a very unwieldy car with some ...unconventional aerodynamics.

 

As for aircraft in GTAO, I wouldn't mind a few more basic Pegasus things, on a par with the Frogger, Mallard, etc. - but then again, I'm much more bothered by the disproportionate focus on luxury/novelty vehicles as it is, rather than more conventional, everyday fare. I get that gun-toting stuff and high-end money-sinks are an easier sell than ...a mid-'70s sedan, or a cheap '90s hatchback, or even something contemporary-but-cheaper like a BRZ. But come on, R* - again, there's something weird going on when there are more Pegassi Lamborghini clones alone than the entire Compacts class combined...

 

Feels like more and more, R* has an aversion to verisimilitude - and I kinda miss that, considering that used to be one of the selling points of the series (and GTAO in particular - remember the original launch trailer?).

But at least you're open to things you don't understand (I think?).

 

Any new stuff is worth a look in a game of this age - as long as it's not just the same old BIGNESS trash, copy-pasted assets and barely-contextual additions pandering to players of other game franchises and genres in a desperate attempt to generate sales from here on in.

 

Some of the things added to this game have been short-sighted rookie errors that any designer worth their salt should have spotted and amended at the idea generation stage.

 

 

EDIT: But that said, I feel I should add that some things that have been added are fantastic. R* Editor, some kick-ass vehicles, nice clothing items and some cool extra game modes. I just hope we haven't seen the last of the good stuff and would personally be disappointed if we're going to have to wait six more months just to be presented with Gunrunning 2.

For me the main selling point was that it had some of the fun stuff GTA IV had removed - planes, tanks, jets (in my defense, I couldn't have known they'd end up like they did lol). All that was missing was a dedicated attack helicopter. Later we got the Savage, but that's a transport/attack hybrid, plus it sucks unfortunately.

 

I do get your vibe though. They're pretty averse to just adding normal vehicles. And I think there should be some basis on actual stuff - or you end up with class-breaking vehicles like flying bikes.

 

And - even if what I want isn't your thing - in its own way there are similarities. Military vehicles are more down to earth than floating bikes, after all.

 

In a perfect world they'd just give us all what we want anyway. They release enough vehicles to make them varied. But instead they're just clones of existing vehicles - typically ones everyone's sick of anyway. A million similar cars with ramps and spikes on them. Hundreds of Swift-clones. Tons of super cars that all look the same, etc.

Mod has already told you (nicely I might add) to knock it off. Put them on ignore then and call it a day, you're being a drama queen for no reason.

 

I think this is the second time I've said the same thing to you in this thread, fairly sure I did, a few weeks back.

 

 

OT: I hope we don't get a Stunt Circuit Part 2. I want more missions, maybe even the mission creator.

In a perfect world, they'd go all-in with a theme for an update - so for example, Gunrunning would be more of a proper military/mercenary update through and through, Lowriders would have had all 12 of the cars from both updates at once (rather than carved off for later), and things like the Manana instead of freakin' minivans...

 

...and then do something else. Pick a theme, do it thoroughly and in a way that satisfies that particular segment of the audience, and then do the same for a different niche.

 

That's the problem with all this talk of a 'Gunrunning 2' - on the one hand, you've got people who are disappointed that Gunrunning was a weird mixed bag, and want a second update to deliver all the stuff they wanted to come with the first. Meanwhile, you've got people who just don't care for what Gunrunning was about in general, who'll be left out just as much with a follow-up or do-over with the same theme.

 

I mean, I didn't enjoy Bikers at all, but I'll say this for it: at least it was a decent effort at a full biker-themed update, for the folk who wanted one.

Had something typed up, but my f*cking internet went out. Urgh. Pardon my French, lol.

 

That's all on point anyway. Gunrunning was this weird mix - the APC got people's hopes up for normal, down-to-Earth military vehicles; then you had DIY stuff, things covered in spikes - what I like to call goofy vehicles; then you had flying bikes.

 

If they'd just done it in a way that kept everyone happy, there wouldn't even be a discussion on aircraft - people would be satisfied and just let it finally move on to the stuff you want, stuff other people want, etc. Instead it was just a million things to take down choppers (as they were needed), and goofy stuff.

 

The airbase is still not forgiven though. I mean, don't call my bunker at Chumash at the beach - don't call it an airbase if it isn't an airbase. There is no airbase near it. Misleading people like that was BS.

(sorry for the long post, I got a bit excited when thinking and searching about such aircraft that gta online deserves.)

 

why not give us a hulking beast in the skies, an air type kuruma maybe which is obviously unarmed but can carry vehicles around. Perhaps a bob custom?

 

 

Also would be awesome to have the futuristic, sleek looking RAH-66 that sweeps through the skies with the hydas cannon maybe.

 

 

and ofcourse, our very own air MOC that could be turned into auto-pilot mode when reaching beyond the clouds that gives us access to either new special vehicles or our full collection of personal vehicles with a one time only chute for when dropping out the sky!

I like old, slow zombies. But then maybe that's all those PS1 Resident Evils back then. They just kind of formed my opinion on what a zombie should be.

 

Might be more awkward to do that in a way that works in GTA though, and fast running ones don't have as much charm to me - like, they should move like they're literally just a dead body somehow clinging onto life. Like what they are, basically.

 

If they do anything it shouldn't take up the space of a DLC though. There's still too much to be added to be taking away opportunities. Maybe a free mode event? A mode or something?

 

Edit: Doubt any of this is happening though.

Easiest tribute ever: make the Romero Hearse available to buy from Southern San Andreas Super Autos. Ideally, make it free, like the returning player vehicles are for ...returning players.

 

 

As for the blackjack tattoo, I'm guessing it's because armoured truck robberies are no longer a thing, so the requisite award isn't possible anymore. Sucks, IMO - I personally don't think things like the gimmicky, arcade-y Freemode Events make up for the loss of neat little interactive (and more verisimilitudinous! ) Freemode things like Distract Cops, smuggler planes, armoured trucks, etc.

Technically, the original supercar was the Miura, but yes I look forward to it too.

When smuggler planes were all over the place ... Woah, I made a ton off them. I would just cruise around in an empty session - every 3 minutes or so there'd be a 35K plane to shoot down.

Actually the very first named car to earn the title 'supercar' was the Ensign 6:

 

 

To quote The Times newspaper in November 1920, "If you are interested in a supercar, you cannot afford to ignore the claims of the Ensign 6".

 

[TexasRocks]

Actually, I think it was a 70 something Countach, so not the ones in Cannonball Run, but still a Countach, that was first known as a supercar. After it was anointed as a supercar, the Miura fell in line with it. I think anyway, could be wrong.

 

No offense to the ensign, but that really doesn't count. Lol

For the time, a 6.7L with no brakes was a supercar. It's probably nowhere near a modern 6.7 in term of power, but you have to think that those had tiny wheels and sh*tty brakes. Probably enough to make you sh*t your pant at 40 mph.

 

Every articles I could find mentionned the Ensign 6 as being the first car being called a Supercar, so Commande S isn't wrong. The term was invented long before the Countach.
