Next DLC Speculation Thread Mk VII

I don't think it is a misunderstanding, since day one they have encouraged team play...  just go back and watch the GTA Online gameplay trailer...  either way, I do understand what you guys are saying, but I also know that you are not a sitting duck, the easiest way to defend against a missile car/bike is to get out of the sale vehicle, now they can't lock on, and you stand a better chance...  the weapon wheel alone has a few toys that are useful against a MkII on your tail, in full aim lobbies just use a Combat MG MkII, for any lobby use the minigun, or Pump Shotty MkII with explosive rounds, if the range is farther use the Heavy Sniper MkII...  you are not a fish in a barrel, except for the Orbital Cannon, I will never defend that, it needs to go...

Well then we have a very diffrent understanding of what encouraging means. I dont consider paying bodyguards pennys for doing half the work (or even the same amount of work as their boss) encouraging at all.

Stopping and getting out of the sale vehicle is the second most stupid thing you can do. Any half decent player will just freeaim the missiles and blow up your stuff even faster since you cant avoid them.

To get the mk2 toys you need to do most of these missions. No explo sniper mk2 without gunrunning research (I also believe that you can get the explo shotty without research).

Trashtrucks and post op vans are sitting ducks, even against an annihilator (and we all know how underpowered that poor thing is).

of course they can free aim, but now that you are out they are forced to free aim instead of just locking on...  either way it is far from the most stupid thing you could do and is in fact your best option short of switching sessions...

19 days left until december dlc release

On the 12th day of Christmas an agent said to me; 3 new adversary modes, 14 new vehicles, 2 MKII, 3 new weapons, 6 massive properties and a flying saucer crashed into a tree.

 

 

 

I'm adamant its alien related. Also, those numbers were random

Seriously, a QoL update is not only long overdue, it's also vital to ensure GTA Online's continued success.

 

Think about it, if the game keeps being stale and unbalanced, no matter how many updates R* comes up with, people will start to go in favor of other online experiences like BO4, Fallout '76, R* own upcoming Red Dead Online and even Fortnite (yeah, I know).

 

The only thing that will kill GTA Online is either GTA VI or GTA Online itself and if R* keeps neglecting the game, people will just leave. The game may be big and still popular but it's also quite old already and it shows, badly.

Question relating to Facilities: The Act Select Screen has two blank spaces that could fit two extra acts. Is that just a coincidence, or is there more uses for the Faciliity we've yet to see?

I'm kinda hoping Cliiffford makes his (it's?) way back into the game as some kind of iRobot-esque model. Would be a good way to implement fan-requested mech suits.

On the 12th day of Chriiistmas, Rockstar gave to us:

 

12 lovely outfits,

 

 

11 crispy discounts,

 

 

10 frosty snowballs,

 

9 firework ammo,

 

8 new masks,

 

7 new jobs,

 

6 awesome weapons,

 

 

5 christmas liveries,

 

4 Oppressor pussies,

 

 

3 Vigilantes,

 

 

2 Hydra griefers,

 

And a Jetpack stuck in a pear tree...

 And looking back... When the Broomstick MKII wasn't a thing... aaaah.

At this point, I don't think anything R* can do will pull me back into GTAO for longer than a couple hours every 3 weeks. I kinda expect more recycled things and more nonsenses.

More curious. Many aspects at play now, it is a bit exciting but with caution. It is GTA:O after all.

 

Never had a DLC period with another R* game about to go live alongside this beast.

 

RDR2 took near a decade with all depts, GTA-next is miles off, years. If R* want to, this game can draw money until that's released if they wanted it to. Needs fixes to last much longer, IMHO. (God mode will kill freemode eventually if left be).

 

This year R* have shown to add much player requested content, and there's stuff in story and online we can't yet own, I'd like the Go-Go Blista, Lost Slam Van myself. But new liveries for old cars too, little bits like that R* are going a bit different.

 

Loads of clothing stashed in the machine too awaiting unlocking.

 

Hard to get excited about the obvious bits if we do get more though as well. Another MKII toy to cripple a lobby in seconds, more huge buy-ins and having to own crap just to access a new mission. Yawn.

 

And of course, what will they break next. Will another bunch of players be auto banned just because, and a lengthy dripfeed that sees us watch a trailer of this new sexy vehicle coming this Christmas, only to arrive in March just before a filler (possibly).

 

I'm keen to see where it all goes now.

[Cackling Jack]

@lonely-Martin I'm thinking the same thing. The next dlc could be a filler update then we will get the xmas content and snow? Im just hoping they at least try and fix all the bugs and annoying glitches than just patch money gliitches. I mean whats left they can add into online? Cops and Crooks or Midnight club dlc?! Heres hoping.

Hope we get more Mk II vehicles. But no Deluxo, please! I want a Cargobob Mk II, one that is faster so I can steal other player's vehicle cargo before they steal it and have a better chance to get away with it

it's pretty safe to assume that the new dlc will release on december 11th with a newswire/trailer on december 6th.
that would be in line with every december dlc since 2015 (executives and other criminals: tuesday 15th // import/export: tuesday 13th // the doomsday heist: tuesday 12th)

also, that's two weeks of time for the shifted focus on red dead online.

Would two weeks be enough to allow the shift of focus to RD2 online? I would have thought they'd need time to work on the inevitable issues that happen with the launch. Unless they have the manpower to handle that and work on a potentially big update for gta? Here's hoping. 

[Lonely-Martin]

@Cackling Jack

 

Oh blimey, they really do have a luxury in what a theme could be if they go for it. I've read all sorts and much could easily work. From the 2 you mention, cops and crooks I believe is more likely as I feel the Midnight Club like stuff can come alongside a theme, and those 2 could be one too, Cops vs The Midnight Club. (In the snow, epic!!!)

 

I feel the potential is through the roof. After the club came, legitimate businsses could grow too. I'd enjoy a rock bar attached to my MC. But the game's shown that potential for a while now, be nice to have a few devs thrown over now RDR is out.

 

@No Homing What! Grand Theft Auto? Here? Only on the cover, lol.

 

I'd love to see that though, R* should have had that focus from the day crates came out. Anything that encourages us to get crafty and rob sh*t, yes please!

 

@Mel94 So true, although the grunt work in online must be done (if its not delayed). So a couple more Malcolm's can have their holiday early next year and get a nice Xmas bonus for a 80 hour week of slavery, lol. Although this game made enough to probably sign all of the developers from another company outright. I feel manpower isn't as big a stumbling block as RDRO's focus and that's a big bag of unknowns.

I did steal 2 cars using the Cargobob. And I couldn't steal them by driving it, because the rival CEO hadn't stolen it themselves yet

Such an unique feature.

I personally think the race inspired liveries are hints to the next dlc, I really like the cops and tuners style idea though im not sure how it would work. I can imganine it would be go to police station, steal info and intercept the cars before or after the rival players get to them during an activity, then return the cars to the police for a payout, or the player can take the car and complete a certian objective and get paid. Throw in some race oriented ideas and other activities like drag racing, drifting and midnight club style street racing. where players who pose as cops take down others for cash.

     Summarized this dlc will involve the players to new racing events where they can compete, steal and boost cars from rivals and the police, and the police or other players can stop them if they are participating turn the car in after it is seized and the robbers can try to steal the vehicle or goods back from the cops maybe add a little twist here and there, detective work, stealing from gangs, impound, transport trucks, and or driving a coquette classic topless out of the cargo plane while its taking off (con air reference). These jobs may be styled similarly to heists or certian ones like stealing multiple cars of transport trucks while teamates defend with ramp buggies or stealing multi million dollar supercars out of a mansion showroom by like drilling a hole through a wall while escaping a four star wanted level and other players as cops trying to seize the car(s).

DB700 Mk II 

 

Doesn't even have to be much (although there are some very fun things to copy from its fictional counterpart); all they have to do is restore the story mode model, maybe slap the resistance and weapon properties of the Stromberg on it. Maybe add the Kuruma glass, and they have a best seller.

I hope santa brings us all a map expansion, that is long overdue, if it were to be a paid dlc due to extra effort and time to create a new map then it would surely be worth it.

 

if they want to keep gto going they need to add some new maps to travel between. There's an airport so why can't they add say north yankton (a completed version obviously) and have air travel there from LS, would be a seperate map and have loading screen indicating you are leaving LS and flying to NY.

I was JUST thinking about that.

 

R* 2013: Oh, no no no, we couldn't allow players buy a personal vehicle like that, it'd ruin the balance of the game.

R* 2017/8: YOU LIKE TANKS N' FLYING sh*t NERDS?

 

What'd be nice is Homing Launcher MkII, the only performance upgrade is that it shoots Ruiner Missiles.

depends on how big the launch of red dead online will be, which in turn depends on how much it is still a beta i think.

they teased that we'll see what the merchants will have new in store for the following weeks, so we'll get something. also, gta is still making too much money to not use the holiday season for shark card sales (people playing rdr have no increase in gta dollars for new stuff which leads to shark card sales if new stuff gets released)
i just hope that it'll be in line with the december dlcs of the last years
