Next DLC Speculation Thread (Part 5)

[GLTh3Pr0]

 

Two questions:

 

A.) what Vehicle should we expect Tuesday?

 

B.) Ive have felt a great disturbance in the force. Theres quite the uproar over a banwave banning legit players, possibly ones joining the hotring race or whatever. Ive read that this affecting mainly PC players. Is that true?

1. This question was answered at least twice in the last two pages.

 

2. Yes.

Really? I guess I'm lucky I did not log in since the update came out then.

[thesentient]

 

So what's supposed to be the first vehicle(s) to be released again? The Caracara or the Ellie and the Tezeract?

If they start releasing this week, then the Ellie and Tezeract. If they start next week it will be the Caracara.

 

Why the Caracara if they start next week?

Why the Caracara if they start next week?

Because there's a new race mode coming out that week and it uses the Caracara.

Ew... I really hope we get the Ellie and Tezeract Tuesday.

[Rafae]

^ Yeah if there's anything new coming this Tuesday it'll be those two. If not then the Caracara on April 3rd.

[RacistGuy]

 

I think rockstar are going to have to add a good mode in the next update like battle royal very smillar to fortnight

They already did

 

It's called Motor Wars. They're adding one for Red Dead Online too anyway.

 

thats not a classic BR mode. its crap and that means br doesnt exist in gta 5. it could be could be good without armed and armored vehicles. the problem is the 30 players limit.

[rlk232]

There won't be another full update for a long, long time, as they're gradually spoonfeeding us little bits of update garbage until like late May/early June, right? And as it is, I won't be playing the game then if they don't fix the cars.

 

BTW, think I'm paying 2.85M for a Tezeract? aka another last place super car, no effing thanks.

If they don't fix it by the tez's release you know their ratings will probably make another hit on steam. If tunabowls don't fix it this tuesday then I suspect that action will be needed to change their minds.

The Steam reviewbombing had to do with them failing at solving the cheater problem and instead banning a lot of innocent players.

Have I indicated I may have been unaware of the past or present review bombings?

While those players with knowledge on how to make money in this game may not consider the roughly 3 mill it takes to buy the tez+upgrade too much of a hit to the wallet one can probably estimate 80% of players will see that as breaking the bank. I've dragged by buds around and shown them how to make money and everything and they still think 500k is breaking the bank. Some players will bite the shark to get something that I'm positive they will advertise the tez at.

The same number of players that probably don't know how to make money probably also don't do their research on issues like this. Sure there is a level of "buyer beware" with everything in this game but the issues that are plagued in these vehicles if not fixed will bring quite a bit of lashback. Some players will rant on their social media but that's like pissing in an ocean of piss and some people understand that and will go to their ratings and reviews. It may be shadowed by the players trying to get R* to correct their faulty anticheat. But unless this is fixed in the tuneables I do suspect there will be lashback during the tez's release.

I really hope that curb boost fix will be applied to every car, at least to Sports and Super class. Time bring back racing and physics back to GTAO.

After that statement was made someone Rockstar CEO Strauss Zelnick said that just because it is popular, doesn't mean they want to copy it just because it is what is currently hot. Personally I do not want a battle royale mode in every last game that releases... PUBG, Fornite and H1Z1 are around to scratch that itch.

 

Anyway here is the article:

So you hope they'll ruin every car in the game or at least every super and sports car? I'm not against getting rid of curb boosting but not at the cost of the functionality of the cars.

The complaining about the curb boosting is so exaggerated that it's really starting to hurt every argument about it imo, everyone can do it and you probably wouldn't beat the people that are really good at it anyway. It's not like a person can win his first race just by curb boosting if he's racing against more skilled players..

[Mach1bud]

They are definitely going to skip weeks with the dripfeed. A few pages ago I posted that because there are 4 packs of cars and with the races releasing when they do, it make sense.

 

So this week will be an event week.

 

Next week (April 3rd] will be the Caracara/Assault Target mode.

 

Then the next week will be an event week.

 

Then April 17th Ellie and the super will be released.

 

I am saying all of this because something hit me this morning, a revelation. Of course Ellie would release on April 17th. April 17th is the birthday of the Mustang in real life.

I support the idea of curb boosting being either fixed, or widely publicised that it's R* endorsed. Of course, by doing this, the cars not being affected poorly too.

 

Naturally, won't happen, just it's tedious and, along with the vastly unbalanced cars like the Pariah and such dominating races, there's much they could and should do to minimise the issues on racing and make it more competitive for all though.

 

Though, it's proper funny to see folk going for the rumble strips and still I coast by/barge them off track. Especially on these new, races, lol. Can't buy that salt anywhere!. (These races are definitely better with contact on).

I wouldn't mind it being gone either but I rather have it and that the new cars isn't useless pos.

In sports class the Pariah is relatively dominating because of it's high top speed and I don't know why they thought it was a good idea to make it that much faster than the rest of the cars but there's usually a "dominating" car in each class anyway. In super class you have the Vagner and people use that no matter what because it's the 'best' car and people don't understand how I can beat them using my x80 on most of the R* created stunt races..

I've had a couple of messages asking if I'm cheating in some way because of this but that's probably some kid or something like that but after explaining they've accepted it and said they learned something new

 

I see I maybe worded myself a little badly when I said

everyone can do it and you probably wouldn't beat the people that are really good at it anyway

What I mean is that the people taking full advantage of curb boosting is good drivers already so it wouldn't be so easy beating them anyway, it's not like curb boosting magically makes them win a lot of races..

 

I've bought all the new cars except the one based on a Volvo or whatever it is and they all feel like driving a tractor relatively fast down a hill with some bumps and the back wheels barely touching the ground and the smallest steering adjustment can make you spin out and crash..

 

Tractor pulling dlc anyone, lol

[Lonely-Martin]

^ Oh of course, those strips won't mean a win. They still gotta get around the corners, lol. But do feel it'd be nice for them to really go to town on the racing rather than this half-arsed DLC that's causing more issues than fixing.

 

Track and car knowledge are big advantages you just can't buy. If the Pariah's too much, it's because the driver just doesn't know what they're doing, and my Blista Compact would probably trouble them...

 

Well, bit extreme, but you know, lol.

I'm putting my money on this as well. As soon as it was made clear that this dripfeed will be released in packs, I instantly thought it will be dragged out over a longer period of time. To think we could've had yet another DLC in a month or so from now felt naive from the moment it was suggested.

[DaGhostQc]

I don't know why curb boosting is so important to people. You try that in real life and you'll destroy anything that's slightly hanging low under your car, including your oil pan. You're not supposed to drive on top of those, it's a broken game mechanic to begin with.

[EVOLUT7ON]

TO SUM UP:

• April, 3rd - Vapid Caracara + Assault Adv.Mode
  
• April, 17th - Pegassi Tezeract - Vapid Ellie + Hidden Adv. Mode #1
  
• May, 1st - Weeny Issi Classic - Vapid Flash GT - Sea Sparrow + 10 new Special Vehicle Races
  
• May, 15th - Overflod Tyrant - Vapid Dominator GTX + Hidden Adv.Mode #2
  
• May, 29th - Rune Cheburek - Dinka Jester Classic - Lampadati Michelli GT + 7 new Transform Races
  

[AUScowboy]

So there's a pretty fair chance they'll continue to release the cars as is without removing the new stats/flags/attributes that make the feel like crap, unable to peel out, to bog at high rev..? Of course they will. Betting we'll have to wait until June to see a true solution, sh*tty as company. They've been at this for four plus years now and still can't fix anything substantial between updates without completely f*cking the game? Truly pathetic..

[elfoam]

I stopped racing when kurb boosting got really prolific, as someone who knows how to drive it's pretty sh*t when everyone else in the race is clipping on and off the sidewalk like chickens with no head.. lame as sh*t. Even if they have to boost of the power of all the cars to compensate I hope they do push that onto every race car in the game, Super and Sports classes at least.

Have you seen many people that say it's important and they want it to stay?

It might be a broken game mechanic but it's better to have it than actually breaking the new cars even more imo. If they could get rid of it without ruining every car I'd be all for it but seeing the new cars it really wasn't a successful attempt on fixing anything imo

1 update per quarter is their strategy. Hello, magic 91 days

 

P.S. 91 days from March, 20th is - June, 19th.

 

3-week gap between May, 29th and June, 19th.

(If R* will continue to release the content in such style, possible dlc dates are June, 12th and June, 19th)

 

Team12 and Team19, make your bets

Yup, we will not get it before new races. First of all, players should test it, and only after that - we could modify our races.

Broughy did mention that it looks like they're testing the water for the next game. GTA V is 4+ years old now and as much as Online is a milk cow for Take Two, they'll have to move on to the next game and that won't be in 4 more years... They can't add new flags to newer cars without changing the old ones, as any of the cars added from now on wouldn't be competitive. Maybe those flags will be removed from the new cars and only used again in GTA VI.
