Next DLC Speculation Thread (Part 4)

[RetroStyle]

Why do people keep saying GTA is getting like Saint Row.. GTA has been wacky since before the first Saints Row was even thought of lol If anything Saints Row got like GTA... or do you only remember the 'serious' realms of GTA IV?

Gta has always been about parody, but the "wackiest" vehicle pre gtao was the jetpack from san andreas, which actually exists irl. Name one vehicle from previous gta's that didnt exist irl? I bet u cant. Even the ruiner 2k and vigilante exist irl. The R2K's jump ability is somewhat iffy, but lowriders have hopping contests irl, so its debateable. Military futuristic weaponry is real, but Alien Technology with laser guns? They even limited the weaponized shotaro to strictly AM's to avoid a meltdown, even the futuristic horn is locked to AM's lol. Saints Row was always considered the less realistic gta, but lately gta is trying to play catch up. The only way i would be ok with a ufo is if it was ONLY weaponized in its own AM, aside from that it would be just another "Aerial Target" in freeroam, like the other non weaponized aircraft.

Is there a dedicated thread for the bug that causes purchases to fail? Happened a lot when the Nokota dropped but happens with any vehicle purchase. Just bought a Cog Cabrio and it still hasn't arrived going on an hour later. Looked around vehicles section but haven't been able to find a thread about it.

whoa, just had a thought inpired by the previous 2 comments... what if 6 was more like VC or SA, maybe even set in a different time period, great SP narrative, and Online continues as 2.0, with an updated engine and a map expansion and kept getting crazier the whole time...

 

whoops that wasn't really about the next update, except the part about getting crazier the whole time, including the next update

 

There won't be a map expansion... There's no way R* would keep their spaghetti fest of GTAO and just add to it. It's broken beyond fixing and piling stuff on top of it will only lead to more problems. You can only keep the same setting for so long before people get bored with it. Los Santos got a 1/4 of the map used, the rest is just empty space. With a new setting (even a revamped Vice City), you can start fresh and think ahead.

How ironic saints row dev put something new and it bombed now gta put saints row stuff in and ppl love it.

they could update the engine mid stream, it would have to be a massive update, basically downloading a new game, but it could work

[Lupo-Akane]

Saints Row and Saints Row 2 were not that crazy, now 3, 4, and Gat out of hell was the crazy ones.

Who want to own this?

 

 

f*ck yes,give me the railgun too. idgaf.

Railguns are based on irl tech atleast. A ufo would be full on "saints rowtarded" and would kill any shred of realism thats left imo. Even jetpacks and rocket cars exist irl. The oppressor, stunt races, and the shotaro are already pushing the envelope for most "true" gtafans. Especially if the ufo is op iny way. Any talk of "realism" went out the door from the very beginning, so it's a pretty weak ass excuse not to include something in this game.

 

If you can prove it's "realistic" to own military equipment and freely use it on an unsuspecting city. To get killed and it's only a matter of seconds before you're back to life. You can somehow hold 50 weapons and thousands of rounds of ammunition and explosive ordinance in your back pocket. I could go on, but I won't.

 

Those who are complaining about insurance and BS can just stop. It's there and whether you like it or not, it makes sense to some people and it works just fine, so I don't see it disappearing on console.

[rollschuh2282]

i wish Rockstar would be like volition ( Saints row Devs) not about the stuff, features and updates, but showing there Dev/debug builds in Streams and show some commands and use some commands the people wanna see, and how open they are about there development etc.

 

( i'm not a volition fan Boy, but R* should do stuff like that with the Community.)

It didn't go out the door from the beginning, minus the jets it was pretty much a normal GTA prior to Special Vehicles. Now people are willing to let them add more silly stuff, simply because they've already accepted the previously released silly stuff. Now it's just a neverending thing as to how far they'll take it...

 

Anyway, this is the speculation thread and it's turning into the B&M one...

 

PS: trim those quotes for the love of god, every time I quote one of you, I have to get rid of the ufo pic and 13 other quotes... Spoiler only hides them.

SA may have had things like jetpacks but GTA was never on par with SRIV in terms of silliness. Until Online that is.

 

Vice City with the power hop cabs.. 1 & 2 had it's fair share of wacky stuff too

[AUScowboy]

They've been OTT games since 1997.

It looks to be high noon and time for this cowboy to be gettin a move on. Speculations have pretty much ran its course at this point and it looks like it is just a waiting game now. Arrivederci and may the force guide you all.

Videogames aren't real? Are you sure? Does mom know? Lol. Ppl literally get special permits to own military equipment irl. I watch shooting shows where ppl get permits for WMD to legally own miniguns. Most columbian cartels have more military vehicles than their govt. Theres literally a British Aircraft Carrier being sold to the highest bidder. Its just a matter of gta straying from its roots to appease a larger audience in order to sell more sharks. If i want a game to fly spacecraft, i will play a different game. I shouldn't be forced to buy a ufo because its the newest OP vehicle added that makes everything else obsolete by comparison. If its ONLY weaponized in AM, then im ok with it, if not its just another reason The Benz needs to hurry up with Everywhere.

[AUScowboy]

Yeah, this thread is at that point that it gets to near the end of EVERY dripfeed. Restless, irritable and discontent. Some of you sound like you should maybe hit up a Grand Theft Auto Anonymous meeting and sort yourselves out...

 

We're just now getting to the best content of the dripfeed, so I'm all in despite how burnt out most of you seems to be

[Catgirl Zyzz]

So with this next DLC and speculation of items, after seeing the hunter be added, how high do you guys think the possibility of Quinns thread contents being used as a community based inclusion?

[Rafae]

^ If the next update does indeed turn out to be a sequel to I'm Not A Hipster, then pretty high I'd say

Yeah... cuz reverse engendered military ufo that already exist in this game story is totally "saints rowtarded"

 

Oppressor already takes the cake. It makes less sens then ufo and jetpack (cause those actually exist in gta world).

Not to mention that they already had planes of creating controllable ufos (cut content alien hud in game files)

 

And as for the ufo itself - It's fine by me (if its "end game" kind of thing. Last update or something like that)

 

For now I would rather have a some kind of futuristic jet that is loosely based on the same design as this ufo

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I don't really agree with that, the UFOs have been added in GTA V as easter eggs, not driveable vehicles. While I cannot deny that I would love to control the UFO that hovers above Fort Zancudo, I must also admit that I would personally dislike seeing the sky filled with them (as if Oppressors weren't enough). Of course, that is just my personal opinion.

Stealth planes like the SR-71 you linked would be fine for me.

[Irish45455]

I don't see the issue with the railgun. We have a heavy sniper with explosive rounds and that's not that far off from a railgun.

This all started because someone confused this thread for the wishlisting thread. Ironically the things that are actually happening are very cool imo. This thread has always been offcourse. Without actual leaks, speculation easily becomes wishlisting, and wishlisting becomes arguing.

[DaGhostQc]

Yeah and that's the problem, what will you be fine with after the railgun? A mini-nuke gun like in Fallout 4? The explosive sniper rounds created more problems than it solved and this kind of things need to stop escalating into a "but since we already have that, I wouldn't mind this!"

GTA was never really silly,

Ah yes I remember all those super serious missions.

 

- Like the one where you had to dress up as a gimp with a huge purple dildo as a weapon

- or the one where you fight zombies in a mall for a movie

- or the one where you use 80s cleaning robot with vibrator attachment to rob someone.

- or the one where you fight evil clowns and aliens

[Volganor]

Well, I share your thoughts on this one. Can't wait to get my hands on the final three vehicles that yet to come - definitely the best part of the update.

 

But, the thing is you see, not everyone agrees with this notion. Some people just want to see what the next update is all about and if certain hopes are indeed fulfilled. They are not as interested as you, me and others are on the final trio of vehicles. And that is fine. That's why some are indeed burned out - just because some are about to get their favourites from this update, it doesn't negate any reason for others to not be as excited. I stand in the middle of this argument - I can't wait for the remaining SR stuff and I'm sure I'll love all of them, but it's time to move on, I feel.

 

So with this next DLC and speculation of items, after seeing the hunter be added, how high do you guys think the possibility of Quinns thread contents being used as a community based inclusion?

 

Certainly hope so. I'd love to believe that the next update will bring different, more varied and better made clothing, instead of x number of reskins of existing threads. There's plenty of wardrobe items to withdraw from the real world that are still yet to make their way into the game. More mature items would certainly be welcomed.

@retrostyle

 

People that own miniguns are a federal firearms licensee (Class 7 with SOT) and filled out an ATF form 1 to buy the minigun from General Electric or a distributor thereof. They don't have a permit for a wmd LOL.

 

Edit - it actually might be a form 4 but you get the gist.

While this will never happen, I do however fully endorse a PvE driven Alien Conspiracy DLC with Grey Alien Costumes. They do that, and I will never look like a human character again.

 

[IceDree]

Hope tomorrow's event is a good one, these half baked ones are getting tiresome.

[White ranger]

For those who said it is not realistic to own the APC/ Hunter or any other weaponise vehicles.

 

No one push you to purchase them, c* was planed to create a open world that everyone can create their own identity and career path, not telling you to collect all stuffs.

 

You plan to be a gang member, then dont buy those military stuffs and properties, buy some guns, motoclub.

 

So everyone making themselves Bruce Wayne or Tony Stark now, then start complaining.

Nice idea in theory - shame that the only two career paths (even for things like Gunrunning and Smuggler's Run, inexplicably) are 'SecuroServ client' (CEO/VIP) or 'biker'.

 

That, and to add to what Volganor said above, the lack of variety in terms of vehicles and stuff has only made things more unbalanced, in terms of letting people pick and choose depending on their tastes. That's why people are getting intrigued and restless about the next update - because 'I'm Not A Hipster part 2' sounds like a departure from the sort of stuff we've had non-stop since June.

 

I just hope that R* isn't going to wimp out of doing something markedly different - because again, it would be nice for R* to let players have more room to define their GTAO experience, but that requires them putting in more varied content...
