Next DLC Speculation Thread (Part 6)

[Defca]

Ooh, DLC for qabeta!

[Sanches]

What? Quality is going down, but the amount of quality tests are raising?

[MisFit-138]

 

 

 

 

Its so aggravating when I see a lot of you folks talk about updates and youre like I really hope they add some random car and its like, thats it? Thats what keeps you logging time into this game? Collecting cars in a game that already has 7000 vehicles?

Yeah it's pretty much all I care about with this game anymore. The vehicles. I don't even want a map expansion, would rather just wait for GTA VI for that kinda experience.

May I ask what you do with those vehicles then? Or in other words why do you even care about having them? Cause If you don't care about using them, actually driving them on those new roads, using them for new missions

 

Them I'm guessing its all about collecting stuff, right? I mean yeah, they look nice and all but... whats the point in collecting if you don't care about anything else to this game? If theres nothing else interesting then whats the point?

 

You're becoming quite the edgelord, Mach

Proto hipster daddy*

I drive them around. I do missions with them. I make movies with them. I take photos of them. I race with them. I make races for them. I do freeroam challenges with them. I cruise around in them. I attend car meets with them. I do literally everything in them.

 

It's not about collecting, I don't care about that. I just have a love for cars, I am a car guy. So that is what makes me the happiest. If they only released vehicles and nothing else from now on, I would be perfectly happy with that. I'm fine with the map we are on now, not tired or bored of it yet.

 

Also, not being edgy at all. Just stating my opinions. Not saying you guys wanting a map expansion are right or wrong, you guys can wish for whatever you like, you are certainly entitled to do so, everyone is.

 

Edit: Pretty much ninja'd by APB.

 

Oh, we know sir. I don't really think you're an edgelord, at all. Just playing around. But if you comb the gtaf archives, youll find 2017-18 Mach is way more cynical than 2013 Mach. You used to really like new ideas and even exclaimed stuff like "that's a great idea, I'm sending that to R*!!"

 

A lot can change in five years, I suppose.

the marksman rifle, once the potential of the rifle was acknowledged by the try hards, it killed all the fun in sniping.

How do you think short rage rifle with a scope should be used? It's not even a sniper rifle, kinda more close to Assault rifle with a scope than to Sniper. You still can stand outrage with your heavy weapon and have fun. Just that you can't use Sniper rifle 100m away, feel disadvantage to Marksman rifle, means you don't know how have fun with Sniping.

I should have made this clear: The marksman rifle killed all the fun in sniping BECAUSE of the free movement you can do while looking through the scope, for mid-range combat that was downright annoying because there wasnt any form of counter to it unless you used a marksman rifle yourself.

 

Plus, you know...Moving around like you can do while looking thorough the scope, while maintain the accuracy that weapon has, is just dumb.

[AUScowboy]

Interesting..

 

I think the vehicle selection for the past update was pretty great. I also think they were crafted pretty well aside from the Jester Classic and that oversized Overflod super, most had great mod options as well. The big black cloud looming over this DLC and ruining it for myself personally is the way the cars perform, not exactly confident that they'll remove them with the next update... finger crossed for sure though.

[Brooks86]

Aside from the obvious issues with flag related speed caps and bouncy handling on the new land vehicles, my largest disappointment is with the Sea Sparrow. Even when stationary on the Alamo sea, upon disembarking from the vehicle the player model kicks the Sea Sparrow backwards at around 30 mph and it shoots away from your location at breakneck speed. I originally thought this was an issue with the waves/physics in the main ocean areas but upon testing it in standing water (specifically the mountain oasis pond North of Humane Labs) the issue persists to the degree that if you re close enough to land when you exit, you can fling it almost entirely onto dry ground.

[nido997]

 

I started playing GTAO since mid 2016 and I can say the Southern San Andreas Super Sport Series is the worst of the worst DLC I've ever had.

yeah bit of an agreement, as cool as it is, the letdown is real

 

Smuggler´s run was a bit worse IMO .... Transform Races as well as some nice aircrafts really saved that DLC though ...

while SSASS is a bit disappointing so far , many promising things are still to come : new cars , new SV & Transform Races etc...

[Baiylee]

looks like we now have a another qabeta...

 

 

maybe SP DLC

 

they added that branch to L.A Noire and Max Payne 3 too

Also look at qabeta2, It was updated 22 hours ago. Are they also testing the next DLC right now?

qabeta2 gets updated daily. So it's probably just a daily snapshot of the gta v pc codebase.

qabeta is the one that they seem to use for last minute (read that as 2 weeks before dlc release) fixing and testing of the dlc.

qabeta3 could be something like nicktestbranch. Something exceptionally (like a new version of R* social club) that needs to be tested.

[Tez2]

Internal development, qabeta is for testing.

This new qabeta3 is something else as it's added to LA Noire and Max Payne 3.

VR Support or a new platform.

Perhaps something to do with "GTA V Premium Edition".

GTA Online VR!

 

Now you need to physically move yourself left and right to wiggle snipe with a Marksman Rifle, all tryhards will get tired in 5 minutes lol

Oh yeah, I always get confused with the two. Still this new branch is interesting.

And some would probably wuss out of shooting themselves before they get killed lol

[Gridl0k]

GTAO on VR uh oh

 

[futureproof]

If you kill yourself in GTA VR, you should also die in real life.

[Sanches]

First person dancing for 5 minutes in VR be like

[Tez2]

I'm pretty sure players will be waiting in the streets.

[zero..kewl]

I started playing GTAO since mid 2016 and I can say the Southern San Andreas Super Sport Series is the worst of the worst DLC I've ever had.

 

but Cunning Stunts: Special Vehicle Circuit came out in that time period, just last March, and it only had new races for the I/E special vehicles, which we are getting for the DDH in SSASSS, and the Progen GP1 on the day of the update, SSASSS had 5, then only 4 more dripfed vehicles and the Special Stunt Race addition to the creator, SSASSS has/had 11 dripfeed vehicles, 2 adversary modes, 2 new race types, and creator additions.

 

imo most of the vehicles added are great, with the exception of the handling flags. and The Vespucci Job is freaking brilliant, soo much fun.

 

tell me again how SSASSS is the worst?

Problem in recoil, not in MR, so that's it:). Anyway if you wanted Sniper rifle in mid-range combat staying straight at the brightest spot on the street - that's not sniping. MR actually fit to this situation, you even still can do it with AR, depending on what you consider mid-range.

 

 

[bebay123]

did someone already post that R* added qabeta 3 to the steam info page?

[kenmy13999]

Yes and I'm sure you've seen it also..

just did...and also double checking on something...idk if qabeta 3 was added to LA Noire before or after the release of it on the switch...anybody know about it or not?

Personally for me Cunning Stuns is the worst. It brought the most annoying glitch for me - disappearing helmets.

[bebay123]

so one of 2 theories about the 3rd qabeta branch

1) it is for VR support for GTA

2) it is a testing branch for the Nintendo Switch (which means they are adding it to the Switch)

 

no idea if any of those two are it...but the only people who know are the people who made the branch

[No Homing]

When was the last time they verified any UGC?

They're gonna do that soon, Target Assault is listed under verified jobs, in the menu.

[bebay123]

I almost forgot about the "Reddit Leak" about GTA V coming to the switch...this new branch could be about that...no idea if it is or not...only way to know is if someone digs deep into it

[Malibu Club]

I wonder what's happening in qabeta2...

[REXX]

VR support with GTA's current physics is an absolute no go. Everything is far too bouncy unless they fix that. Also VR is only good at 60fps such as games like GT Sport or WipEout - thats coming from a console players.

so the best theory to go on is about the Nintendo Switch then right?

Unless it has anything to do with the so-called Premium Edition with revamped graphics and fps for VR, then yes, it may possibly be related to another platform.

 

Or might be something completely different.
