The Official B*tch & Moan Thread (Part 2)

[Semaj 2JZ♢]

The source mission grabbing the 'Bob from Humane Labs, by the eastern sea, and then flying all the way to the western sea to get the car, can suck my balls.

 

Especially when the retarded Buzzards hover over the source car then crash down on top of it when you shoot them. Even worse when the screen says $34,000 in damage, but I can get in it and drive it like it's just fine...Yeah, it gets "drove" right into the drink.

f*cking hell i just went on gta online for the first time in 2 months and jesus f*ckING christ is it laggy as all hell

[whywontyoulisten]

Mentioned this elsewhere, but always fun getting trolled by the incessant NPCs Buzzard terminators in Import/Export...to the point of $32k damage and a completely non-functional target vehicle.

 

Not even remotely interested in testing the "improvement" tweaks made in 1.38 ("Reduced the accuracy and attack angle of the Buzzard Helicopter in certain Vehicle Cargo missions."):

 

 

Also mentioned this elsewhere. Fly straight up until the Buzzards appear, and then go straight to your warehouse and you won't get hit once as they never catch up. Simples.

Tries to sell a high end car with the Kill yourself method. Stops just when the enemies spawn and kills himself. Spawns 200 metres away from car now. Gets mercilessly murdered repeatedly by multiple spawning sharpshooting AI baddies. Finishes them off, and tries to run towards car which is still a 100m away thinking the first wave was done. More Kurumas with sniper accurate enemies keep busting my balls. Realized its not worth fighting them solo and jumps into car and floors it to the vineyard checkpoint.

4k of total damage and no more AI spawns near the vineyard road = cool. Car loses control at the vineyard entrance and bangs straight into the huge pillars at the entrance. 2.5k additional damage a mere 10 metres from final checkpoint

GTA Online Special Vehicle Races will have an option to turn off Custom Vehicles by Rockstar Games

Question: Why is there no option to turn off Custom Vehicles in the Special Vehicle Races in GTA Online?

Answer: We are aware that there is an issue preventing this option from being available in GTA Online. This was not intended and we are currently working on a fix. Please subscribe to this article to be notified of updates.

 

Oh sure it "wasn't intended" bs detector going off. It has been a thing in every race they have until now. But 20 different races they "forgot" to add it to them. Maybe you should have tested it you had 91 days from the last update and you couldn't do something as simple to see if custom vehicles could be turned off. Even better is how they said they are aware of the issue. More like you are luring people into buying the overpriced vehicles when they notice they are getting beat by custom ones. I wonder how many people will buy them to get an advantage before rockstar allows custom vehicles off, which will be done a lot by people who don't have enough to buy one.

To be fair, they f*cked up a lot of things in races like that before.

 

For a while we couldn't change the weather in Stunt Races.

 

For a while GTA and Rally stunt races could not be done.

 

For a while Non Contact wasn't availible in Stunt Races.

Why mechanic, why you do this?

[Arrows to Athens]

The heavy sniper can't even one shot players with BST. What in the actual f*ck has this update done?

@ Arrows to Athens... If I'm not mistaken, the heavy sniper got weakened before, But to not be able to get a clean head shot from a decent distance is a bit over the top.

 

This DLC just seems to have so many niggles and many just do not enjoy this as much, R* set a standard with these DLC's and I was surprised to see no new clothes at least, one thing I liked about most all DLC was to venture to the clothes stores, tattoo parlours, hairdressers and gun stores... I miss that bit of adventure...

Yes, but it seems even weaker after the recent update.

To be fair, they did release a huge chunk of clothing options with every single update in 2016...

[puredorian]

f*ck off, judging by how long it took them to patch the sniper Nerf(hit wouldn't do damage on a distance depending on your connection stability to a server), I wouldn't expect any real fixes to this update, not until they do new title patch, which obviously won't happen until next update, because that's how badly Rockstar works.

 

Lame ass bitches.

 

Sorry, just real pissed over how incompetent they are.

[Lonely-Martin]

@ Rafaesheikh... Oh, don't get me wrong dude, I pay nothing other than PSN and the game itself... Anything free for me is very much welcomed, just I have seen a fair amount of discontent with the latest DLC, just a little more than usual I feel. And I just feel it was lacking in that 'exciting factor' I got from the previous additions, I'm keen to see the new cars, doing my best to avoid pictures but as expected 'the guys' cracked it open and revealed what's to come, cool additions too, and the extra custom options on the GP1 is welcomed too. It just felt a little less than usual, you know...

 

And I feel a little bad from winning a lot of races last night, until after entering the first race I had no clue, but as they are paying good and I have the 3 vehicles fully loaded, I did well, soon recovered what I spent on discounted clothes and the car itself too... But now realise it is impossible for a low rank or player without those vehicles tuned and ready, unless I mess it up, which I did twice, lol, and got beat clean a few times by equally good players... $1.8 mil in a session on races was a good night, absolutely no complaints there, but do feel the choice of custom or not should be there for all to get involved, I believe it was meant to but not 100%...

Yeah I don't think this update was supposed to be a "proper" update along the lines of what we got in 2016... but more so as a filler or something to tide us over until the first real update of this year "Gunrunning". Much like Lowriders Custom Classics was released last Spring to tide us over until they finished working on Further Adventures in Finance and Felony. But even then.. at least that update had clothes, guns, adversary modes, hairstyles, tattoos AND cars lol

 

All we got with this was twenty new races and one car lol

[GTOSH40]

There needs to be a system in place to see what cars have what upgrades, i own about 75 vehicles and right now engine tunes and turbo's are 25% off. It's a pain to drive each car one by one to LSC cause i can't remember which car already has the upgrade and which doesn't.

Edited March 15, 2017 by GTOSH40

[Lonely-Martin]

all too true, still it was free stuff, and the car isn't terrible by my taste... Hoping gunrunning gets good, and I'd love to return to your CEO trophy post with 2000 crates, and a much better return on cash invested too, that'll set me up with the future content. Much easier than cars, I can relax and alongside my MC businesses, Running cars too is a ballache, and I can have friends (in real life, popping by for an old-skool session of beer and Playstation) help along the way... Good times. Enjoy...

@ GTOSH40... Office garage and customs... Can tune cars on contact missions too, tune a couple, finish job, I had a playlist of easy jobs to do this when I went carte blanche on my car collection with the 60 car garage added, and no repairs for the odd bump too... Still took forever mind, lol...

You don't upgrade them as soon as you buy them? I thought that was what pretty much everyone does.

Well I also did not upgrade them all the way. Atleast not until the made so that you can unlock the parts with your level.

We don't have a ton of illegitimate funds, so sales are where it's at in terms of unnecessary spending. I'm also not interested in buying ANY car, just for racing it. Needing max upgrades and whatnot.

[TankGirl]

If someone needs to go in and out of passive mode during an on foot gun battle or kill themselves everytime they are about to die its time to give action games a rest and pop in the Sims. I was trying to fight a ground battle and this person was doing just that, I mean really?

[Con9mm]

How the F' do you brag about your $200.00 sneakers but are making our ears bleed with your sh*tty fu(king headphones that whistle and hiss every other second?

Buy the $150.00 pair and buy some decent $30-$50 headphones------- and make the world a better place, goddammit.

Also is it me or did they increase the speed/climb of the NPC buzzsaws? I used to be able to climb to altitude before they spawned and get to my warehouse before they could turn my world into swiss cheese. Now, they catch me and take my Cargobob down within a minute.
