Next DLC Speculation Thread (Part 4)

[Commander S]

I just want a 350z and Yaris in game.

 

See, those sound like decent fits for two different update themes, IMO:

 

 

- Nissan 350Z? Tuner/street racing update, definitely - wouldn't be difficult to make an original-yet-recognisable new design out of a mix of 350Z and 370Z.

 

- Toyota Yaris? Depends on the specific model (because there are a lot... ), but it'd be easy enough to find some similar Toyotas to mash together - although as for the theme, that sounds like something better-suited to something like a sequel to I'm Not A Hipster, or similar.

 

 

...both of which would make for two very, very nice updates, from where I'm sitting. Hey, R* - if you happen to peruse this thread ever...

[Happy Hunter]

On the one hand, the Elegy Retro is ...99% perfect for what it is (minor things like recycled interior customisation and lacking in varied bumper/skirt options, but eh, it gets it so very right where it counts). On the other, it's just one car - bit like the folk saying a Bikers update was unnecessary, because 'look, R* added the Gargoyle/Cliffhanger with Cunning Stunts - you got what you asked for, right?'.

Ah, perfection is a cruel mistress. It's the same with everything. Take the Hunter - could've lacked auto-stabilization, could've allowed us to use the cannon solo, etc. But it's still a massive breath of fresh air after so long with nothing, and it has other stuff to help fill in the shortcomings (lovely barrage, bombs, countermeasures, good armour from what I've seen, etc.).

 

There were only two attack helicopters this update too - and one of them technically ... Well, in the real world I couldn't see the Havok being classed as an attack helicopter. But still - for the sake of the post, there were two. Not a huge amount. It's something though, and enough to tide me over for a long while.

 

I don't really mind much what the next DLC is anyway. Hopefully they can keep everyone happy - there are a lot of people who all want their stuff. I would like to see Quinn's thread get some more results. Pretty much anything is cool by me though. I've had my share now.

Tbh, the way the cars are modeled and designed - from the programming point of view - I doubt there is much room to implement cool customization features, other than standard customization, so nothing new there could be seen.

I'm also not sure what business can we have with this one, that wouldn't be way too similar to I/E sadly and that's deja-vu there.

We've seen from PC, that Benny's or any unique stock wheels work on any car. It's possible to adjust track width, camber, and even wheel offset (dish). Countless mods work on cars that currently do not have them available. There are tons of paints and rim colors they could add.

Who needs another business?

C'mon fam, you know "PC" and "mods" cannot be considered as a valid parameter in Rockstars world, that should be obvious.

 

Ofc, we really don't need another grinding business, but hey, every major update tends to have it at its core.

 

Like I said, I'd really like to see it happen in the form of a simple garage - something Benny's alike - but I'm affraid taking consoles as a main base in every sense of things and given the fact GTA is actually an old gen game -

remarkable one, but still outdated - there's simply no room for progress any more in vehicle department, at least in sense of seeing something fresh and new customization wise.

 

The way it looks for now, the only ace up in their sleevs could be adding a wide body kits and that's pretty much it. Doubt that it alone could be worth rolling out the whole update.

^that could be cool, like a CEO garge with no requirements. Throw in a bunch of themed layouts like rockabilly, checker board racing, tuner, punk, biker, ect. Add some cars and new customization for older stuff, lots of new clothes, gender model specific.

I've been saying this for as long as I can remember - basically, have our own garage/clubhouse thing, but for cars, and with a variety of interior styles, to match different automotive niches.

 

We almost had that with Import/Export, with the vehicle warehouses - shame they had to be stuck as CEO-only, for stolen cars instead of our own PVs, and with a mandatory secret bunker underneath. All of those things really ought to have been separate, IMO...

Everyone is waiting to store their weaponise vehicles in the bunker.

You guys have no imagination if you think a stupid water DLC would come out after this, do you even understand what kinda flop that'd be ? sh*t it'd be funny as f*ck but Idk if R* is that dumb

New boats and floating sh*t, for a great big vast ocean of emptiness. lmao

And one jet or hunter to ruin it all.....I had think a solution:

For luxury boats - high value of insurance compensation

For military boats - high angle and multi auto lock missles

That would help, but R* wants you to be on the losing end.

I don't think a "Tuners Update" is likely for the same reason people don't think a "Naval Update" is likely. And I agree that we are more likely to see a few boats and aquatic gear here or there, scattered acrossed other broader themed updates. Just like tuners, a few Benny's cars Once in a while, just as it has always been.

 

I think a "Midnight Club Update" is more of a possibility. A broader theme. Not only tuners but hotrods and other cultures as well.

 

An offroad DLC would be great too, I mean if we can lower the stance of vehicles. Why can't we lift them too? I would like to customize a mesa for rock climbing, modify a Sandking to the fullest. How about a Rally truck, or fully modify the monster trucks.

 

I started this aquatic debate anyways.

 

 

Sounds like the "Diesel Brothers" with their crazy trucks.

It feels like a no brainer tbh. Expand that to the garages we already own, let us update those as well.

[Alvarez]

I would really appreciate a rocketboat. Should be fun jumping waves with one of these.

Rockstar could use that as a James Bond reference while also integrating the boat in upcoming Transformer Races.

Speaking of that, they could get some close homage on Spy Hunter.

[Gridl0k]

Things I think are very very likely:

 

More Mk2 weapons

More weaponized vehicles

Therefore more research

More action for Benny

 

I suspect we're looking at Gunrunning 2 next.

 

Things I think are almost certain to never happen:

 

Casino

Water-based DLC

[AUScowboy]

I know many are sick of it, but as I said yesterday, i really don't care at this point now that I have what I wanted. I would totally welcome more MkII guns, especially if they were good choices, always down for worthwhile militarized and or "Weaponized Vehicles", Benny's usually only features cars i can appreciate, so that all sounds good to me

 

It would be nice if they could break free from laptop based FR stuff, but I won't hold it againt them if they don't break that routine. We're four years in almost, I'm glad we're still getting ANYTHING TBH...

[Gridl0k]

Yer actual jet-boat would be a lot of fun

[Piro]

I just hope SmugglersRun was not the last dlc with new airplanes and helis. Now that we have a way to customize aircrafts I would love to see Airwolf and SeaSparrow.

Maybe even custom versions of existing aircrafts? Just like they did with Insurgent and Technical.

 

I think everyone would love to see a custom anihilator with additional miniguns

 

btw - Batmobile needs MOC for upgrades am I right?

[Dacelo]

I know it was hotly debated whether MKII guns were 'new' or not (I still stand by the opinion that they're nicer looking than the stock variants and have better sounds but ultimately don't differ enough for me to view them as all-new) but I'd still like to see some new non-mk2 guns that don't fall into the types of weapons we already have like a repeating lever-action rifle, a non-scoped bolt-action rifle or a battle rifle.

 

[SHADOW OPS]

I would like to a new Bennys in Sandy Shores with more customization to make rat rods and the like.

Slamvan custom and rat loader

[Nyamber]

If there's a newer version of the slamvan there better be an option to make it look like the Lost version. It's been in the game for 2 years and we still can't own the damn thing.

And the tornado rat rod but that's not really many is it? More rat rods and muscles are exactly what we need.

That would be a good concept actually. Skilled players could skirt the edge of the crush-depth-zone (or buy hull reinforcements to go deeper) and travel in relative peace...

... and then the SR aircraft could get depth-charge bomb upgrades or drop-tank-torpedoes. Droppable sonar buoys to ping-locate submerged targets. Stuff like that.

 

I'd still be surprised if a navel DLC is in the cards though. But it would be the kind of half arsed logical step I'd imagine R* to reskin make.

Well tuner cars dont just mean jdm. They also include muscles and other car classes. I think a tuner/Midnight club DLC is completely plausible

When people say Tuner cars they definitely just mean JDM/Compact/etc type cars. Muscle cars are something completely different. At least in all the car guy circles I have been a part of all these years.Well it's been completely different for me. The first Fast and Furious is considered a tuner style movie but there still in influence of muscles cars with Dom. Tuners aren't just JDM cars, their all cars that can be timed. Thats why tuners car called that.

[eyman]

I very much doubt any update from now on would contain only one certain type of vehicle class even if Tuners is coming, expect a few Super/Sports/Muscle cars in there also to please everyone just like "BIKERS" did. Same goes if it were a Sea DLC.

Then every single car on the planet is a "tuner" car. Any car can be tuned. Not sure what FnF has to do with anything.

[AUScowboy]

I think they mean that the root word being tune, implies that regardless of what type of car, it's being tuned to improve speed and general capability. I thing it crossing over to mainstream culture has given the impression that it's style oriented. Once it became mainstream, there were plenty of people who confuse "ricing" with tuning. I do believe the origin is based around performance though, so what kind of car is being tuned is irrelevant if going by the traditional meaning. I'm not well versed or anything, (obviously lol), all of this was gathered by some hasty googling.

[Mach1bud]

I just know when most people say a "Tuner update" they are talking about Supras, RX7s, etc etc that type of vehicle. Not '32 Fords and Chevy Novas.

 

Apologies for skewing a bit off topic, you guys understand how I am about muscle cars. Never ever heard anyone refer to anything but compacts/jdm cars as Tuners.

Our fellow console players deserve this kind of fun. Riding waves with turbo is fun as hell.

 

You know, i suspect there will be some huge Vinewood-themed Update next year, that would include some hotrods, classic cars, greaser haircuts, maybe a Porsche Spyder... You know, some cars that appear in Rebel Without A Cause.
