I like the direction there going in. They're kinda basic, but show alot of potential.

*secretly hoping that these are hints at the next update*

new cars for import export? gone in 60 seconds style heists? 

i'm liking these missions tho, repeating grinding them, GTA Today being my favourite by far, one thing that bugs me is those idiots that take all the spare lives in under the hammer, they stand around and get shot by the police at the gate and then we are pretty much cornered half the time i find, that and the people that blow up the cars when they are either bored or impatient at the occasional slow player

Oh damn you reminded me of those days when my main income was through completing daily objectives as I had no idea missions were a thing back then as I was pretty new to any kind of online multiplayer in a game.. I even used to beg other friends to help me out to complete them.. Those were the days.. The amount of time I spent to get my first house with Zenterno car in it .. Wow shows how long its been since the game has released..

 

I remember the days of grinding Violent Duct and buying my first ever legit car. The Obey 9F convertible. I still have her.

I was thinking instead of the Cargobob they should have come up with some new hack puzzles for the mansion gates and then you have to duck between security guards and use night vision at night to get the cars.  Seems kind of ridiculous to steal cars in the broad daylight with a double prop heavy lift chopper that would shatter windows if you actually hovered that close to buildings.  I agree the missions have potential but RS might have to decided to spend some money to make future content more interesting and realistic.

My thoughts exactly, was quite disappointed when discovered that the gates are closed and can't be opened, there should be multiple approaches to in the sandbox game. Sasquatch one was ridiculous too: touched my Hunter with the saquatch when absolutely in the middle of  nowhere and.. instant one star. After losing the cops.

Re-watched yesterday all GTAO trailers... I hate the silence... Prefer to hear any official info (or a leak from trusted members), good or bad, no matter. But this...
Why not to share with people a piece of the roadmap of what's coming next... (RDO has it now). You know, we always had an announcement of announcements every spring for GTAO but this year... with their "Please, give us feedback about GTAO" thread becomes to worry me a lil bit now...

[555-We-Tip]

Rockstar's lack of transparency with the fanbase is a little bizarre. I get they don't have to be, but the level is almost nonexistent. We get excited when they throw a single sentence in the newswire about what to expect for the next event week.

Its because players continue to buy cash cards no matter what content they throw at us. They could literally add sh*t to throw at other players and players will buy it.

As long as they see cash card money rolling in they assume all is well and continue down the same path. It is the players that give them this power.

So what’s going on at R* ? Is there a money issue or they don’t have enough employees to deliver content for both their online games?

its been f*cking months since they last updated both RDO AND GTAO

Well rdro just had an update and they are getting another this or next month. Id guess R skipped the gtao update in an attempt to draw players to rdro.

I dont really think there is much more to it than that.

Besides that its only a matter of time before the gtao updates slow.

I am hoping that they were sincere in asking for feedback. Knowing they would skip the march update they will have plenty of time to go over the feedback and actually give players what they are asking for rather than random crap.

90% of the time you log on it's either raining or dark.

 

Oh wait.....

 

That' been one of the nicest things about playing Sasquashed this week. The sun stays out and LS actually resembles Cali.

[EkaSwede]

So, for the remaining two Simeon missions, what cars do you think will be involved? so far we have Torero, Cheetah Classic, Turismo Classic, Infernus Classic, Elegy Retro Custom, Sentinel Classic, Swinger, Ellie, SC1, 190z, and probably some more.

At this point, who the hell knows what they are planning. It seems like they are already going back on what they said about staggering updates so I dont even know if they know what the hell they are doing anymore.

And with the rdro update coming up I dont see them also releasing a gta update only about a month apart which would leave June out.

I have to believe they are working on something for the summer though.

Lately I just try to play with the mindset that there will only be December updates and the usual holiday updates because thats where we will inevitably be headed. I went through it back on PS3 so I am prepared for the end lol

Personally I think they are working on fixing the game in general. For a "fix everything update".. As you can imagine that is going to take a long time.. But they really have no option. Red Dead is bringing no money and no one is playing GTAO let alone buying shark cards. They pretty much have to make an update like that to bring players back at this point or they have no income..

That would be awesome and Id love to see it happen but fixing bugs dont sell cash cards. They have tons of options. They could hire more people for one. Imagine how much money they would make if they were dropping updates every month or 2. They are idiots lol They make like

5 billion and think they maxed out when in reality they probably could have close to doubled that.

Q4 2019 Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. Earnings Conference Call  05/13/19 at 4:30 PM EDT

[Rumblebud]

Y'know what i've been thinking lately?

 

I can't be certain with this, but...

With their recent introduction to the revamped feedback page, i'm wondering if the abnormally long time they're taking for the following release is being spent reworking some aspects of the game's environment, based on user suggestions.

they know they got us by the balls, our relationship with R* is a mix of stockholm syndrome, battered woman syndrome and ptsd.

 

we are in a abusive relationship with this company and they know we wont leave them.

I'm unconvinced going by RDRO's standard set so far, but for sure they could earn some much needed brownie points if they do.

 

As much as I/we want new content, if something not as universally popular arrived but had many game tweaks for the better, I'm sure that'd be welcomed by so many, especially if they added new source/sell methods, freemode events and BB locations to mix up older content a little. (Classic modes too, survivals etc).

 

Maybe not I/E for some with the 10/10/12 gig.

Nah, it's not that bad actually; during the summer, it's very dry and sunny! I'd love to see them at least add San Fierro and/or perhaps cover the bulk of what is considered the Pacific Northwest in the next GTA instalment - they could have Vancouver at the northernmost point, Seattle and Portland in the middle, and San Francisco (San Fierro) at the southern end of the map. San Francisco generally isn't grouped in with this region, but it would add a nice touch. They could even bring back Las Venturas and place it sort of southeast of San Fierro, separated by an expansive rural area and desert.

 

I'm not really on board with Vice City being the next projected location, but I didn't exactly care for that game. I did like both III and IV, but I'm not keen on seeing the return of Liberty City either. I'm also probably very biased since I'm very, very, very familiar with Vancouver (BC), Seattle, Portland, and to a lesser extent, both San Francisco and Las Vegas.

Wait, what recent update to RDO? I gave up playing it entirely back in March; the last update I saw was the change in the blip system, but if they're attempting to draw players to RDO by shifting the focus away from GTA, they are indeed beyond delusional.

We can only hope, but based upon what I've seen and R*'s complete disregard of the backlash present on their Twitter page and elsewhere, my hopes are not so high. I'm convinced it's just a placebo and they likely do not read most of the suggestions nor take them seriously - unless they benefit their own business model and interests. That may sound a bit pessimistic, but based upon what has happened and continues to happen with RDO, my sense of hope is being killed off more and more as time progresses.

Since R* is apparently making changes to Daily Objectives, I'm hoping for some objectives with special rewards.

Like new players or all sorts of players can gain temporary access to certain vehicles by completing specific objectives.

"Complete Repo - Do you even lift ?" = Gain temporary access to Cargobob.

Also, it will be nice if this applies to the drip-feed of every new update, where R* will confirm the existence of the drip-feed vehicles and let us have temporary access to them via completing specific objectives.

I'm aware some people may use exploits to store them, but just place the drip-feed vehicles in blacklist until they are released.

I'd love it if they did that but I think we all know they won't. People just buy vehicles, and if they don't like it they sell it for 60% of its original value, thus making players lose 40% of their investment. Granting players the ability to temporarily own something removes that possibility of players losing cash off of a disliked purchase, and Rockstar likely doesn't want that.

This is one of my thoughts where 80% of it isn't likely to happen, but 20% believe it may happen because we said the same thing about yachts and meme vehicles.

"Yachts won't happen, its just too complicated" and then it happened.

"R* won't add meme vehicles, it will destroy the game" and they did.

Aha are you saying July? what are they going to name it this time? the After Months update? next one after will be in July 2020 and will be called After Years.

this scheduling is very weird, it almost feels as if they're trying to kill the interest in this game before the next GTA comes out.

Thats very similar to the current situation with the blacklisted vehicles that you will typically see after a free roam mission, But it may deter players from buying a vehicle or it may influence them. It could work out like this; player completes said objectives and then they have access to the vehicle in free roam albeit limited to just roaming around and using it for freeroam stuff and it doesnt stay when switching sessions. It has no limited time in the same session and has 2 vehicle respawns if someone destroys it.

kinda similar to GTA San Andreas with the driving school, like how you unlock curtain vehicles (Super GT, Bullet and the Hotknife). Makes me wonder if they'll ever put driving schools back in a future GTA.

Exactly, that's what I meant.

They just have to change the last part of what you said, to be able to spawn it in every session but you don't own the vehicle.

You only have access to it in freemode for limited time. They can set a stat as a timer for how long you can have this vehicle.
