I just don't understand how people can think that they shouldn't have to pay 10-20k in insurance if you willfully destroy someone's sh*t and it costs a sh*t ton of money to initially purchase. Insurance cost -> relative to initial cost. Simple.

Man's got jokes, lol.

 

I like it.

 

But the issue is a plague in this game. Serves only one purpose as you/we don't benefit from insurance fees we/others are charged.

 

Why do you feel players should have decent sums of money taken away just for a bit of a fight. Do you get anything from knowing your opponent was given BS points too because they simply bested you, nothing more.

 

It only serves their push to milk every little chance they get in order to make cards more appealing.

 

I agree they will want to promote those cards, but this is clearly a step overboard, IMO, lol. They'd sell as well without this bullsh*t.

 

It's to discourage the fight, you f*cking idiot.

Lol. Of course it is.

 

That's why we're encouraged to blow sh*t up too, lol.

I know Rockstar isn't to blame. Microsoft is.

 

Pathetic. I wish I would have picked up a ps4 instead.

One of crew mates had forgotten some singleplayer modding files into game folder when entering online to car meet, he got 30 days ban and character sweep after less than 2 hours in online, even though sp mods dont even work online R is now so against it that if file scanning feedback finds mod files while in online they ban you. I have had second copy which i swap with new copy and then keep offline while playing mods for long time now and kept myself safe and since i keep modded game in past i never need new scripthookV.

Looks like there's another faulty banwave going on on the PC front again. I guess this is "Pre.SMuggler's Run money filter" Part 2, only now they'll just reset players accounts for sh*ts and giggles.

 

Time to not log on for a while.

[Zader]

I keep accepting invites and winding up in the wrong jobs. I wanted to finish up my stock car races to have liveries I'll never use, but I spend half an hour sitting in the clouds and get matched into a level 39's Pacific Standard setup instead.

[Lupo-Akane]

I think that many problems could be solved if Rockstar would make CEO, hangar, mc business and bunker missions also available in invite only session and don't even start about having a solo public session thing! Today I saw a great example how my strict NAT type isn't any guarantee that I will have a solo public session all time.

 

I'm really annoyed that I'm forced to go in public session, where it's more than possible that in this session are modders, only because I want to do CEO missions. With time it really becomes annoying when I have to turn off router and immediately back on, if I wish to have a solo public session, especially when there are times when it works only with 3rd or 4th time and even then modders still can join in this session and ruin everything. I don't have problems when a clean player attacks my cargo, but I do have problems with fact that modder can destroy everything within 3-5 seconds without giving me a chance to fight back and save something.

I would like to do everything in invite....hell I would pay $60 to rent a server for a year. Im sick of having to do the mtu thing...sick of having to check to see if anyone has joined the lobby....

 

I so wish we could rent a server, expressly if we can set the time of day (24/7 midnight lol), and weather but also kick anyone that try to ruin your fun.

[Captain_Fluffy]

Tried a couple of Hotring racers....a bit meh, full of the usual pitting and ramming shenanigans, (got the last laugh in the end when the punk who rammed me and tried to prevent me going past for a couple of laps ended up crashing on another attempt and he finished right at the back) but decide to go back to freemode for some Executive Search. Ten minutes later in that f*cking cloud simulator......Booooooooooo, booooooooooooooo!

I'd like to know how the hell this is possible. Was that police roadblock a portal to 2013 GTAO or something?!?

 

10k insurance for blowing up a Tank. This wasn't some innocent guy cruising around in a Tornado he was going on a killing spree in a Tank and I'm a bad sport for blowing it up

 

-snip-

10k and bad sport points for blowing up a fu*king TANK but if someone blows up my unarmed pegasus dodo they get no bad sport points and it doesn't cost them anything. Whoever came up with insurance for weaponized vehicles is a fu*king idiot that should be fired immediately

Small world! I was just in a session with that guy in the tank. He was trash talking some players in game chat because they went passive when he came near them in his tank. Like wtf, are people just meant to accept being randomly killed by a Khanjali over and over?

[Dr.Rosenthal]

Happened to me the other day. We were out in the wide open fields around the windfarm area, and I immediately quit my Org and went passive. If Id have been in the city I would have tried to keep fighting him, but on open terrain - no f*cking way Im giving them the chance to get a bunch of cheap kills.

 

Hes the pussy attacking people for no reason and out of nowhere, using a railgun and sitting behind thick layers of armor. Simple as that.

I am so sick of having to stop what I'm doing just to not get killed by peeps using that darn tank....had one guy get a few blocks from me and he went off the radar, than start yelling at me cause I went passive. Edited March 24, 2018 by Lupo-Akane

That happened to me while messing around in Director Mode, but instead of crashing into the police, I was running over pedestrians on Vespucci Beach. I think it has something to do with the truck's collision box or something. It's really f*cking weird.

4 days on the forum, already saying to regulars they're idiots. Another valuable contributor in the making, absolutely.

 

Insurance in its current state is a scam and insurance payments should go permanently. Some people are unaware, but thanks to the cheaters, insurance is disabled on PC and it's exactly how it's supposed to be. I played on consoles for 3 years and I can definitely say that PC lobbies are no more warzones than console lobbies. While it's inconclusive whether insurance will serve as a deterrent, one thing is for certain: you're still paying for it while it's enabled. It's just another tax.

FFS with Rockstar bullsh*t - don't have much money, managed to save $800k, was trying to decide between the Hotring Sabre or an Office Garage to save having to drive halfway across the city to register as CEO for Bunker research - figured the Sabre will only get temporary use and with catch-up in most races didn't make much sense so went for the garage...

 

BUT NO, you can't spawn in THAT garage, it's a special one unlike all the others. FFS. We should be able to get refunds if we haven't used the item in question which we bought.

That's actually interesting - I've never played PC, but from everything I've heard it's led me to believe that GTA on PC is unplayable with "modders" and cheaters etc etc. I considered getting GTA for PC but came to the conclusion that it'd be worse than playing on Xbox. Would you say it's worth playing on PC?

[AUScowboy]

Holy vomit inducing f*ck Batman... this new bouncing suspension stat/flag is legitimately nauseating in first person view.

 

Edit: oh yeah, all of the cars STILL feel like especially sh*tty garbage due to the 4 new attributes they added with them for this DLC. f*ck you R*... f*ckyou, f*ckyou, f*ck YOU!

I can't and wouldn't speak for anyone else, but playing on PC wasn't worth it for me.

 

I transferred my original PS3 character to PC as soon as PC was available. It wasn't long before I ditched a well established character through frustration caused by modders and took a break from the game before starting from scratch on PS4.

 

I do almost all my other gaming on PC, but there was no way I was continuing with GTA on that platform. I still go back to the PC character occasionally and have made it future proof as far as money wipes are concerned. But I'll only go back to GTA on PC after updates have stopped and even then it will be in firewall enforced solo sessions.

That depends on how you want to play and what do you like to do. I'm not playing with randoms and it's okay for me, all the advantages of PC platform. But be advised: transfers are over and starting from scratch is not worth it, not even close! And also make sure you're aware of false positive ban waves regularly hitting PC playerbase.

Fully agree. It is the obvious solution.

 

I understand that R* wants to encourage the, err, competitive PvP experience, but they could do this by, say, boosting high demand bonus-$/RP for business concluded in full public sessions, and/or increase NPC-hostility for business done in closed session, regardless of player number. So players can choose between a moderate profit done contact mission style, or go for higher profits in one of the public war zones.

 

 

 

Exactly. I wouldn't mind that for doing these missions in public session you can get bonuses, while in closed sessions bonuses wouldn't be available or that payout for doing these missions in closed session would be a little bit less than it is when people do them in public session. I just want to enjoy all these game's features without having a stress about something like what if modder will come and destroy everything and will start dropping money or will set me on fire.

 

I think if Rockstar will make these missions also available in closed sessions, then it might increase their shark card sales rates.

[Sanches]

Simeon never asked me to steal cars for him. But after this update he started to do so.
Why racing updates always ruin my game experience even tho im not into racing?

[kg88987]

The fact that enemy NPC's know where you are in contact missions. How? I drive on the road and, BAM! I see red blips on the map. How are they able to track me like that?

Wouldn't be so bad if Rockstar got off their lazy bums and added a few lines of code to see if Player A has attacked player B, that way if player B blows up Player A's vehicle player B doesn't have to pay insurance (Or still does) but doesn't get bad sport points.

 

If it's an unprovoked attack as in Player A going straight for your vehicle and blowing that up without attacking you first then by all means insurance & bad sport points should be handed out as is.

 

The PV / Insurance system is still a mess as it is and well it just doesn't surprise me that Rockstar never thought of this or adjusting the personal vehicle code. Why is it that if I get attacked in my Insurgent by an oppressor or Deluxo (These two are the worst these days and every one of them fires rockets at me despite me not even harming them or provoking them) They don't pay insurance on my vehicle a good 70 - 90% of the time after they've destroyed it but I get the chance to destroy their own vehicle and bam $20K insurance premium cost I have to pay towards the other players vehicle. Bet If I went around in a damn Deluxo and blowing up peoples vehicles I'd be charged 100% of the time for it. Does the insurance system have favourites?

 

Why is it always the victim who's punished for defending themselves? Someone give me a good reason or answer to this please. This game has no problems what so ever seeing you get picked on or provoked but defend yourself and apparently your now the bad one. Please don't tell me Rockstar has a half assed baked tolerance system except it's always the victim losing out here while the villain always get's away.

[DominusTaranis]

I don't care what the difficulty of the mission is. There are very few that give me much trouble on hard. The newer ones, I'd probably enjoy more on Normal because the aimbot is turned way up, but I can deal.

Except when I'm riding shotgun in a Barrage AND YOU DRIVE THE f*ckING THING RIGHT UP TO THE CROWD OF ASSHOLES SHOOTING AT US. THE TURRET ISN'T A DEATH BEAM. IT'S A f*ckING MACHINE GUN.

Extra salt because you kicked me instead of restarting for YOUR f*ck up.

[mrfonzius]

You can take pics during a survival, but not in a contact mission? Wtf...
