Next DLC Speculation Thread Mk VII

[Happy Hunter]

When are they releasing the RC car? I haven't even seen it, but from the sounds of it - that's all that's left from this DLC that really interests me much.

Do you plan to put sticky bombs on it or something, and send it against tryhards lol?

[Silent_x]

Remember this from r* support?

Isn't the Clique the only car where this sort of camber thing actually happens when applying more suspension? Could be a glance of some attempts to have stancing in a later update. Could be thinking too much into it. 

Enus Huntley is quite similar in the suspension department.

But... it already has a sticky bomb. Thats the main purpose.

Btw rc vehicles - We have drones, rc missiles and rc cars. Who wants to bet that the next dlc will bring us yet another truck will all of those rc toys in one place? They will probably add this one as well:



and maybe this one (if its FIB, IAA themed update)

If you go ghost / off radar presumably your RC will do the same?

They'll be giving our characters the ability to wall run and slide along the ground next...

Nah that would require work. They will just give us exo-suits with cheatcodes from singleplayer like explosive melee and super jump.

Or they will straight up copy Iron-Man mods...

Spoiler

 

Not a big fan of this idea tho. Buuut I also have to agree that wingsuits from Just Cause would be nice.

Long gone are the days of Grand Theft Auto, now it's Grand Theft Techno. GTT VI: Black Ops City.

Said it ages ago that Exo-Suits would just be monetised cheats from Single Player.

They have already monetised multiple PC Mods/Cheat Menus so I see no reason as to wy they would not make Iron Man style suits.

[Killer Whale]

I'm sure they'll eventually make our characters invisible like Avon's juggernauts. It's only a matter of time. Off sight, off the radar.

 

I'm all for it, as long as they give the wearer of the invisible camo a glass jaw. Short invisibility time, 10-15% reduced endurance during power-up activation, 1.5 minutes of ability recharge.

Hmm hopefully new car tomorrow

Tulip or schlagen gt or Nothing

Deviant next, according to the scripts. 

And according to R* Support, the Unholy Hellbringer and Widowmaker weapons will be released on the 8th, and we will likely have no shadow of a car on that day. 15th for the Deviant is my guess.

[KingBen]

I’m excited for the Deviant

The Impaler also have it.

 

That makes at least 4 cars with that suspension. Clique, Ellie, Fagaloa & Impaler.

 

Hope its not the new norm.

No it isn't. Camber doesn't change at all. Well mine doesn't anyway.

Great picture. I love Columbo

Nah quite a few cars do it, all the way back to at least Lowriders (the Faction).

 

I believe it's just so the tires don't clip through the fenders when cornering or anytime the body sways downward. The other method they used where the tires barely turn so they don't clip the fenders (Buccaneer Custom) had some backlash at least here on the forum. 

 

 

[No Homing]

So the 14th is the last day of double rewards for AW modes. I wouldn't be suprised if they put the AW vehicles on sale on the 15th, they have to find some way to make players play AW once the payouts drop to even sh*ttier amounts.

 

[Kiwi_91]

i'd like an arena wars part 2. its the only public / adversary mode i've played for a long time. ever since securoserv was added all i've really done is solo grinding, car meets and a few races. but as of right now i've played about 100 arena war games. and i've actually enjoyed them. 

 

and if arena wars part 2 adds another 30 garage slots alongside a good amount of muscle cars, i'll be very very happy.

Best. Event week. Ever.

 

Nothing is topping this, not even double on I,/E or heists. I just wish there was new content to match and save up for

Seconded. I'm not sure what could top this week. Although we didn't get a car last Tuesday, the bonuses made up for it. Felt nice to make back some of the money spent on Arena Wars.

Pretty sure they are just trying to make it look more realistic since certain suspension types naturally end up with more negative camber the lower you go. The Futo sort of confirms this since they added this design element to a day one vehicle model that had no clipping issues.

I don't want Arena Wars part 2.... I'd even take a Smugglers Run 2 over that. Both are boring but at least Smugglers wasn't forced and you could just ignore it after getting the discounts(Which could take 3-5 hours at most)

I agree and disagree. I feel like Arena Wars brought something new to the table and has to be appreciated at least to a minor degree. It’s at least something other than a delivery business, I love that they threw together new areas that help immersion and they didn’t add anything that throws off the balance like the Oppressors did. 

 

On the contrary, most game-modes have devolved into doing laps on a motorcycle. Hot Bomb is just doing laps and hoping you never get selected because you can’t catch up to other motorcycles. Carnage? Do laps and let everyone else kill each other. Flag War? You’re screwed without a bike. And don’t get me started on the payouts, AP system and rewards...

 

I feel like there’s room for an AW2 update, especially given that the arena-ready vehicles portion of the website looks kinda’ goofy with how empty it is. Maybe we’ll get a vehicle drop like the surprise Benny’s update.

There's literally no good that could come of AW 2. Just more discounts locked behind years of grinding and wasting your life

I'm down for Arena Wars part II. Another batch of desirable muscle cars and classics is definitely fine by me. Even more so with all the rust involved.

With AP rank going up to 1000, they either have to really tweak it or keep adding to it, and not just a 2x on AP as that'll still be one hell of a progression step. 

 

Though I'm not interested in ranking up for trade prices or Pegasus toys as such (unless they're a lucky coincidence), I do like the arena games and would love to see them become the 'new Adv. Modes' and add to them all year really, including verifying and promoting player created stuff too. Slap a go-kart track too, would love that and RC races/battles.

 

Though I would love them to allow us to buy stock vehicles too to add to our collections (with ample garage space, lol - You knew I'd squeeze that in somewhere, ha-ha).

 

But yeah, the filler DLC can add to it, along with the dripfeed it seems. The summer DLC can have a new theme, (IGG3?), business even (Naval?), all while adding modes too. More dispatch missions won't hurt the filler content either. And of course, the Lost Van could come in many forms too (stock/tunable too), along with many other rides. Especially if the Broughy/flags petition proves to see R* remove them as that'll only help card sales, surely, and get folk playing, more-so if we do get more awesome 2x weeks like this last fortnight.

 

Speaking of Fortnite (kinda), that game has added a 'cube' or something where players create a bit of land to hopefully for said players, to become the centrepiece of their map for all to fight in. For R* to use this arena in a similar way and engage us more (along with the RDRO feedback or removing the flags), it surely could only be more good.

 

Not that I anticipate things to go that deep, but it really could I feel to compete and see the game live on for a while. If RDR2 info is true, 8 years, gonna be a hell of a long time until a new GTA or Bully 2 etc comes. (Soz for the long one guys).

 

Comes down to one word I and many keep mentioning... Potential. It's still huge. 

[DaGhostQc]

I want good cars too, but AW part 2... that can burn in hell!

[Silent_x]

If arena war part 2 happen, please dont make bouncy cars

I'm obviously missing something: What is the RDR2 info that potentially says 8 years?
