Next DLC Speculation Thread (Part 6)

Not much that does it for me - aside from the blimp there are no aircraft, and no bombs. Blimp is nice though, and I guess there's still the patch notes. So many of the weaponized vehicles are goofy/DIY - you'd think they could fit a few normal attack vehicles or aircraft in.

 

If this stuff can be used for sales it'll definitely help though. But then, I'm done with grinding. I'm sitting on 57M, and what am I going to spend it on? Don't see the blimp costing that much. Nothing else that flies, so yeah ... 

 

Hopefully they quietly patch in a bomb reticle.

I feel ya there HH. Respectfully, I felt much the same about Smuggler's Run myself, just underwhelmed by it and that DLC skipped me by as I stayed gone until DDH.

 

Hopefully, like me with Smuggler's though you'll find more there for you than you realise as I did with the DLC I skipped. I enjoy my hangar and toys there, though am a rare user of it all, lol. Although SR did have some cars come, hopefully they just haven't shown us much in the trailer, and the dripfeed too could have bits too.

 

That said, it could just have a stack load of new liveries and countermeasure added to aircraft we already own. I know it's not the same as a new toy, but it'll definitely add to the variety we see.

but they didn't specify which July 24th .. it could be 2019 ... 

Except July 24th 2019 is Wednesday. I don't think they release updates on Wednesdays.

I don't understand the "took to long" comments regarding stuff added to the game.

What difference does it make? It's here now, enjoy it. I know I will.

Whats not to understand?
- game is old
- its been in SP for years 
- its just added now after years 

If they did the same thing with let say Lost Slamvan or Space Docker wouldn't you also say something like "finally! we been waiting for years" or "it took them long enough" ?

Mhm .. you have a point, July 24th 2029 it is then, it's a Tuesday.

I say we wait it out.

Hmmm... Yeah. Fair point, lol.

 

I really hope as this is to be a 'double feature' that we really haven't seen much of this DLC though. All those little bits I love, like going to the tattoo shops, clothes and masks etc. All that simple, sweet fun we usually have. And that the players campaigning for more variety in clothing get heard too.

 

Beards and long hair would be great too. Any of that stuff that really see's our characters look so different more and more. With us in 30 player lobbies, potentially, and hopefully NPC's galore, this could be a real blast for variety and colour, lol.

 

Nothing like good fashion to go with fancy nightclubs. New or retro.

I was about to mention the the Space Docker and say the exact same thing, not sure what's difficult to understand about that, just like what I said about them taking months to fix broken cars from the last update, apparently I'm the only one who thinks that it's stupid if they fixed the cars right after releasing new ones, eh I guess GTAForums and opinions are in a very difficult relationship.

today i woke up to the youtube notification of the trailer...

 

watched it a couple times and it looks nice!

 

my favorite gay guy is back, hope we dont have to kill him, as R* loves  to kill characters from previous games.

 

overall im kinda happy with what i saw, cant wait!

[Guest]

Just gave my Mamba in the garage an extra hug. Always told you, baby, thing's gonna be put right some day  Should this be some bennified version for sure there's a decent dashboard in it, too. (As long as the wheels don't get Tornado'd, not much can go wrong)

 

Could there be a new take on customizable muscle cars in general, does this work out with the Midnight club theme? (I'm not very familiar with that angle)

The Vigero with finally some extras would be quite a treat for me, such a beautiful car.

 

 

[Happy Hunter]

All that said, late is better than never. Was the case with the glorious Hunter, will be the case with the heroic blimp.

Take another look. The car on the left CLEARLY has a Karin badge. Even Broughy1322 discussed it.

[Jackdemonzz]

I wonder how the issue of promotion and selection of staff in nightclubs works

[Firow]

I have a goal for everyone this thread.

 

If you need a peer in setting up nightclubs I am available. I have other wealthy friends that are interested in newer more fresher people to play with.

 

 

Thanks

[Max 1985]

I think R* will add one of those construction buildings to the game.

 

The way I see things in the trailer we got Party bus, that big pounder, more garage floors, warehouse to put products only a Huge building can fit all these things.

There was a vaguely clear close-up shot of the word Dinka on the spoiler of the left Jester.

[Scottiedog123]

I'm hoping the handling flags will not be on the new cars, and even more hope that the last batch will be fixed.

There is a Karin badge at the back of the car. I think that's a more important note.

[MaddenedGhost]

The layout of this trailer was pretty good, the editing and all that, but content wise? not sure, I feel like they focused on showing the fancy lights of the nightclubs a bit too much.

not really complaining as I know the update is of course running around those nightclubs but I was hoping to see more cars and clothes if there are any, I guess this trailer would've looked better content wise if we didn't know about that guest list rewards about a week or two weeks ago.

 

Anyways, I cannot freaking wait for this, Tuesday's gonna be exciting!

Of course I would, but those are completely different statements than "took too long".

 

That statement implies the content/changes are worth less than they would have been in the past, which is inaccurate. 

 

A blimp now has just as much worth now as it would have 4 years ago. Fixing the SSASSS cars has just as much worth now as it would have been 3 months ago. Adding the Lost Slamvan now is worth just as much as it would have been 4 years ago. It's never too late to add things imo.

 

Like, who says, "Eh, I wont buy that blimp because it should have been in the game years ago."

 

Whatevs, probably me just being picky about how people say things.

my question is if we can buy Bahama Mamas

Incredibly doubtful, but 99.99% certain we'll have missions that take us there.

The Vigero getting a proper ‘69 Camaro treatment would be f*cking awesome. Stripes livery, an actual ducktail spoiler, or even side exhausts would be warmly welcomed

This is how I think the new garage space will work...

 

- We will have either 2 or 3 levels of 3 floors per level similar to the CEO office.

 

- It's at least two levels since the trailer showed a level named B2. That means there will at least be a A1, A2, B1, B2. It could also be A1-3 and B1-3. 

 

- If it's only 2 levels then I think we will see AT LEAST 20 new general garage spots. The reason I say that is because level A could be dedicated to the new special vehicles (Mule, Pounder, etc.) If those vehicles get their own level then we may be limited in the rest of the space we get for regular vehicles. We already know we can store the Patriot Stretch with regular cars since it was shown in the trailer on the B2 level.

 

- If we get a C level it's possible we could see 40 new general car spot. If there's 3 levels per letter like in the CEO office then we could see 60 new spots (B, C levels with 30 spots per). That leaves A level for the special vehicles.

 

[Happy Hunter]

I wonder where we're going to store our blimps? I don't want to make another aircraft sacrifice. Hangar space is absolutely full for me, had to sacrifice the Ultralight.

 

Also, that thing is going to have something spectacular for it to last more than a minute in free mode. Don't get me wrong - it's not a combat vehicle and I don't expect it to be good at fighting or even lasting that long. But in 2018 GTA, I'm not sure you'd even get off the ground. Broomsticks, Deluxos, explosive snipers - and that's before you even factor in the conventional aircraft.

 

I think we should all just agree blimps are sacred, and protect one any time we see them. All blimps must be escorted by at least one attack helicopter, a Chernobog, and whatever else works.

[CrysisAverted]

the blimp will be online right?

will it work like yachts with everyones blimp floating in certain spots or will we be able to pilot them?

will they go down just as easy as singleplayer or come equipped with AA?

will flying the blimp over prime locations increase popularity/sales?

can we customize the message displayed on the screen?

With the current GTAOnline? not sure any escort would actually help protecting that thing, that thing is one big "HIT ME" target flying in the sky, if we're actually going to get that and own it, I'll fly it in an invite only lobby, I don't want to be killed in freemode while flying that specific thing.

 

The blimp is probably going to be for After Hours what the tugboat was for Finance and Felony, you don't see tugboats outside of missions in freeroam, nobody uses those things.

If we can buy the blimp (I'm betting we can buy it) then I guarantee we can drive it. We can drive them in single player.

If we can customize them which it looks like we will can then it's a lock they will be stored in the hanger.

[Mach1bud]

I imagine it will take a serious amount of rockets to take it down or something. Maybe have unlimited flares.
