Next DLC Speculation Thread (Part 4)

[Commander S]

Lot of other, more fitting ways to flesh out the city setting have also been waiting for years, too. Some since ...San Andreas, 13 years ago.

Odds are, if R* do a boat-themed thing, it'll just be a water-based spin on Gunrunning and Smuggler's Run, which means we've had the same kind of content for most of 2017. Three major updates doing the same thing is a bit stale - and if you're not prepared to go all-in with it, you can't access maybe 95% of the new content.

We need something with a different focus, IMO - some actual PvE content this time, and without locking most of the new gameplay and vehicles behind a bunch of mandatory purchases.

11+ weeks of dripfeed content. So not looking forward to the torture... Oh well.

Only this community would refer to free new content once a week for 11 weeks as torture lmao.

It's a little different when everyone knows it's already in the game and ready to go.not only ingame and ready to go, vut accesible via missions and shown in the trailer!

[Dust]

I'm expecting a PUBG adv mode in the near future. A lot of Xbox and PS players would welcome that. Motor wars is kinda meh with the team aspect and all...

I'm really disappointed in motor wars. (it's so lame i haven't even played it) If it's worth doing it should be done well not in a distasteful way.

Well, I get the disdain for reskin crate running, but the ocean needs love and should be utilized. If they can fit scuba diving into a Race update, thats fine too. But, I feel if they do focus on watercraft and amphibious gameplay soon, that only brings more in game tools for the developers to utilize in future DLC packs. For example, wouldn't a mission creator be cooler with more watercraft, submersibles, and scuba suits? Wouldn't a race dlc be better with a couple race boats? A spy dlc would need aquatic gameplay peppered in, surely. Its just a vastly neglected element in my opinion. But heres to something PvE, that I can totally agree with.

 

OT: Buying the Bombushka tomorrow, does that even fit in the hangar?

At the very least, split things up somewhat, just so it isn't 'expensive military-grade PvP Freemode delivery shenanigans', without a break in between...

For example, how about:

- Nightlife/nightclubs/etc. update for December

 

- filler thing with a bunch of new vehicles in March

 

- Tuners and the like in June

 

- Aquatic Gunrunning/Smuggler's Run Sequel in September or whenever

 

 

Or any combination of the above, provided that December isn't another Gunrunning-style update, and with the given that March is probably just going to be a mini-update that probably just recycles assets from another previous update.

I think we can all agree we are tired of the stock/ retrieve / sell game-play business thingy

 

but what could they do in its place? we cant go back to just plain themed DLC with cars and clothes...

 

 

 

I think boats would be like bunkers...but with tuners you could open up new gameplay with street races and new mod shops...car parts? pink slips? race crews? drag races? need 4 speed type heists? new garages...etc

Bunch more contact missions?

 

Lamar's missions with Lowriders weren't terrible, but they didn't use the Heist mission mechanics well, IMO, and aside from the polished presentation with the new cutscenes, the content of most of them was pretty forgettable. Throw in the fact that some of them were only playable by a full team of four, and small wonder why no-one plays them...

 

But since then, we've had the Special Vehicle missions, which were pretty novel (particularly the really good 'set piece' ones, like Arms Embargo), and then Mobile Operations with Gunrunning. Those were largely really good, even if some of the payouts were a bit so-so.

 

If R* managed to do some street racing/tuner-themed missions, maybe with some more cutscenes and narrative elements like Lowriders, but with enough novelty and variation to make the individual missions enjoyable and replayable (so more like the Gunrunning and Import/Export missions, less like Lowriders... ), that'd be the perfect balance. Particularly considering that Smuggler's Run really dropped the ball with a total lack of PvE gameplay additions, so something that makes up for that wouldn't go amiss...

The last few adversary modes rockstar added were every other week. So probably another week to go before the adversary mode and the Bombushka get released. Since the Vigilante is the Halloween vehicle and Halloween takes place on a Tuesday the order I came up with for vehicle releases would be correct. Just a guess so anything can change. Looks like the Vigilante has to come out before the Nokota, hunter, and lazer become released based on fun showing the screenshots of the websites already. Also uses the number/order of steals needed to unlock the cheaper air vehicle prices with the order of 24,27,30,33,36,39, and 42 for steals needed with the Hunter at the end unfortunately and the Lazer following with no discount. Knowing rockstar they will probably make lazers not spawn at fort zancudo anymore once you can buy one for $81.25 I mean $6.5 million.

 

Sept. 12th - Bombushka

Sept. 19th - Howard

Sept. 26th - Rapid GT Custom

Oct. 3rd - Mogul

Oct. 10th - Pyro

Oct. 17th - Cyclone

Oct. 24th - Seabreeze

Oct. 31st - Vigilante

Nov. 7th - Nokota

Nov. 14th - Hunter

Nov. 21st - Lazer

 

And rockstar also has the transform races creator "hidden" away as well. Look for gta online transform races on youtube since rockstar deleted all the tracks that some of us made early. Also notice how the transform races wont come for a while do to rockstar deleting the tracks. Rockstar never deleted the tracks players made early with the cunning stunt creator update. Tracks for cunning stunts were created 2 weeks early before rockstar officially released the creator to everyone. It would most likely be a creator update including the transform races. after they release official tracks like they did with cunning stunts. Rockstar if you don't want us talking about content early, don't dripfeed it for months.

 

It may be a bit early to talk about transform races but they will look like some of these maps from multi theft auto, a pc multiplayer mod for gta san andreas from years ago.

 

I miss the DD maps as well. I think it's time to renew Sumo Adversary Mode.

[SHADOW OPS]

Worse thing they ever did was get rid of the Benz

Worst thing they ever did was give jets explosive rounds.

Any predictions on what we'll get tomorrow?

 

Hoping for the Rapid GT Classic

R* is well into RDR2 now. I think they give us 1 more dlc if were lucky.

Well, there's stuff already confirmed coming for Xmas, and Take-Two announced they're extending the lifespan of GTAO (presumably beyond just the end of 2017), so I'd say more like one more year of DLC, at least...

[DeltaShadowZ]

For Aquatic/Amphibious Gunrunning, well I say...

 

USS NumbNutz confirmed?

[Pocket Fox]

R* is well into RDR2 now. I think they give us 1 more dlc if were lucky.

 

Which R* development team though?

 

They have several.

[aaronBLUEeyes]

So, with the last several DLCs we've tackled both land and air... Perhaps next DLC will bring us out to sea as sort of a Pirate Themed DLC?

 

I bring that up because of recent trends and the plethora of Pirate-themed tattoos.

 

I'd be down for more oceanic activity: esp underwater missions with treasure diving missions, harpoon guns, etc...

 

Would also love to augment and customize my Yacht more with things like: Minigames, SecuroServe computer access, and docked vehicle customization

I had mentioned the same thing a few pages back about the clues rockstar left.

[Malibu Club]

Yes please. Where do I sign up for this?

Clues? It wouldn't surprise me if this was merely a massive coc k-up by R*. An accidental release of the wrong tattoo pack.

They probably now have a bunch of aeronautical tattoos to release with the pirates DLC.

 

Anyway, I was here to see if anyone knows the drip feed order? I know that no-one knows whether we get anything tomorrow or not, just what comes first?

I'm not interested in "I hope it's this". I'm asking if a code snooper has dug up the info?

Edited September 5, 2017 by Nugsy

[Mach1bud]

Nah nobody knows the true release dates yet. You can guess based on the amount of supply runs needed for the discounts, or the order in which they appear on the websites, but I think they are gonna kinda mix it up this time.

 

Vibes as some would say.

Would be a lovely surprise.

 

At the very least, at least have it just a bit earlier on, or have it so they release two at once or something to speed it up.

 

Actually leaving it that far back, and at one a week (if that) - urgh, I don't want to be waiting until November/December.

Wait a minute. Didn't this thing handle like a Shipping Container on a Shopping Cart covered in grease while it's raining? (In other words, like crap)
