[555-We-Tip]

I’m anticipating a sizeable update, but I also don’t expect any details from Rockstar until December.

Yep, just like last year.

 

We didn't know anything at all about DDH until they announced it 5 days before the dlc was released.

This sucks, the leakers stopped leaking and r* is known for their radio silence. We're gonna be running on pure speculation for a long time

[Alan7777]

I reckon 3 weeks at the latest till we hear something, 4 at the latest for content. It's all but guaranteed to be happening, the only doubt is what.I would say 90-10 in favour of mansions over some kind of naval update

I am still waiting for smaller stuff for example some options for the standard interiors of every cars or frickin options to choose the amount of stuff that I wanna sell from my businesses or atleast checking them on the phone.

 

But I guess it's gonna be something else with one or two new broken vehicles that everyone will cry about.

I totally understand why people despise dumb sh*t like the OPMKII, but It hasn't affected me. Being a PC user, I've learnt the value of needing to quickly disconnect, so I made a hotkey about 2 years ago that instantly disconnects everyone in the server. If i see some c*nt clearly about to abuse the MKII, bloop, he's gone. I'm all for PvP, but if you want to EWO, Explosive round my car and continuously call in a MK2 in a gunfight, you can f*ck off.

 

On topic, I'm almost certain this update will have something stupid. If they can fit a magical bike into nightclubs, they can fit a seatank into mansions

[el sombre]

when's the last time we only got 1 or 2 vehicles?  there will be plenty, here's hoping we get this:

I understand why so many people cry about the MKII simply because most pf them are too stupid to actually counter it. I mean, common, Minigun, Explosive Sniper, F1-Hunter, Lazer, Hydra. Of course, the MKII is strong but is not OP. Not at all.

Frankly it would be fine if it wasn't accessible through the MC menu. The vehicle itself would be *fine*, but they can call it in 10 times a minute

We only got 4 with CS: SVC and only 1 of those 4 was available on day 1.

No fun at all. R* radio silence plus no leaks is boring as f*ck.

If the mk2 is going it be as overpowered as it is, I actually like that it is easily spawnable. Although this makes it easier for griefers, it also makes it quick and easy for me when I need to retaliate. I have little patience for the mechanic when I'm not happy.

a) that's more than 2

b) that was a year and a half ago

c) all March updates are small

the MkII Oppressor isn't really that OP, everything in this game has a counter...

A new map is coming in February because R* knows that's what I want for my birthday

I think it is, as was the laser jet back in the day. Yes there are things that can take down a mk2, but not often, and not for your average player.

Well, that's right. They should either make everything accessible to everyone or just delete the function.

most counters were literally listed above, if those fail use a Stromberg, or fight fire with fire and use your own MkII, it's not OP, it is end game content, but it's not OP...

So you wanna call something OP because the average casual "idiot" as I call them are too dumb to think and counter that?

Bro I know how to counter them. I'm saying it is too hard into take down, noting has been this hard to take down since the laser when we had no hydra or later weapons. As you say, it is end game content, they want it to be as powerful as it is.

I don't think you know the definition of counter, it it was hard to kill it wouldn't have counters, the counters, as listed above, make the thing easy to kill...

[StormerBoy]

We'll just have to agree to disagree I guess.

Where did you stipulate how long ago or the time of year the update dropped when posing this question

Don't worry, I'll wait.

 

As far as this goes

Seriously? You're that guy? As if a 4 car update, where only 1 of those 4 was available to buy on day 1 is such a gaping chasm away from "1 or 2".

 

But, I'll buy into you being literal about when the last time was that we got 1 or 2 vehicles, as opposed to you being needlessly pedantic and confrontational. So, the last time that happened was the January 2016 update, when we got the 900r and Sultan RS.

I literally said when is the last time, so...  and yeah, a 4 car update is pretty sh*t, and as explained all March updates are small, guess I should've specified when is the last Dec update that came with only 1 or 2 vehicles...  also this whole post is a "that guy" scenario, so we are both being that guy I guess...

 

anyway...  back ot:  I'm def thinking mansions this Dec, 11th is looking likely, but I can totes see them dropping it on the 18th

I’m curious, being gone from this part of the forum for so long, what happened to the leakers?

Time for "Pro-Tip Time" with Uncle Crokey, you see Uncle Crokey hears things about stuff that's going on in topics and thinks it would be a good time to impart some knowledge and experience.

 

Pro-Tip 1: If you're getting into a fruitless discussion walk away from it, or take it to PM and be civil about it.

They quit leaking, R* reached out to them & asked them nicely.

Yeah, let's ignore for a moment that most of those vehicles are either expensive, situational, overpowered or all of the above.

- It flies and hovers indefinitely.
- It has near unavoidable missiles.
- It has countermeasures.
- It's pretty small.
- It can go virtually everywhere.
- You can't fall from it no matter how hard you crash.
- It can be spawned instantly and endlessly through the MC menu.
- It's the fastest vehicle in the game with the speed glitch to boot.

To not call it overpowered is a serious understatement.

It's not even end game content, you can get one pretty easily if you buy enough Shark Cards. And yes, it's horribly OP.

Yes, everything has a counter, but almost every counter is either expensive, behind paywalls or overpowered on its own.

This "let's add an OP hard counter to counter OP" mentality that R* has is how we ended up with so much bullsh*t like the Oppresor Mk II, R2K missiles on everything, Explosive Rounds and even the Homing Launcher in the first place.

I mean, if R* actually did the right, obvious, logical thing of replacing the jet's Explosive Cannons for Machine Guns back in the day, most of these wouldn't need to be in the game.

but if it is expensive or behind a paywall is that not end game?
