Next DLC Speculation Thread Mk VII

[IsekaiExpress]

I think we'll be probably only managers to a casino, who don't receive full income, just management fee. Also, money laundering missions.

So Funmw2 said the Casino is a new business. I hope not. It would be so weird if everyone owned the same casino in the same spot. Plus I just want it to be open without paying for it.

No but we could buy other properties that could be turned into gambling dens/casinos. 

 

The nightclubs didn't really look like nightclubs.... until we turned them into nightclubs. 

If the construction on the many buildings around the city is completed then you would have room for more business/gambling rooms and garages. I would also like to be able to sell some of the useless garages I have with out having to buy new ones. 

[Up2NoGood45]

I don't believe we are going to be able to gamble any money that can be related to Shark Card funds AT ALL.  I'm afraid you will only win RP points or something like that.  I have a feeling the Casino is going to be something like the Nightclub.  There will be cars, possible overpowered attack vehicles and related missions.  I'm wondering if there will be support missions like picking up and saving high roller gamblers and getting them to your casino.  

 

I'm looking forward to it!

But a 61 Lincoln Continental convertible on the other hand would be absolutely marvelous.  

 

Oof, no. That would be such a nasty tease of potentially new garage space.

Just throwing out a possibility.

Yo know what they say: "Expect the best, prepare for the worst" or however it goes.

If there was a casino DLC, I could see them giving you a daily "chip" allowance, say 100 chips, that you can gamble with and accumulate.

 

You wouldn't be able to buy chips with GTA$, but you would be able to buy GTA$ (or other content) with chips.

 

They will find some way to restrict and cap winnings too.

Fun said something about them messing around with daily objectives and new freeroam events, right? I bet those are related to the Casino

I could see them doing the daily challenges similar to how they've done them in RDO. Complete each challenge for so many casino chips, complete them every day to earn a streak. 

 

It would really incentivize people to log in and play every day

There is nothing wrong with Lock-on missiles. 

Yes there is, you don't have to wait for a full lockon with the homing missiles in vehicles like you do have to wait for when using the Homing Rocket Launcher...It has been like this since game was released.

 

I agree about the rest of your post though, OP Mk2 missile tracking is straight up Bullsh*t.

Yes, we need more convertable cars with folding roofs.

Totally agree


But I guess they haven't done that in years cause they are too lazy to create extra animations...minimal effort approach and all that.

No... that only applies to those R2k/oppressor/meme missiles. 

Before that everything had normal missiles with normal lock-on and standard accuracy just like Buzzard and HL.

That only applies with MK2 rockets. You dont get full lock-on in 0.1 seconds with the regular ones. You have to actually wait for them to become red.

The OP MK2 is not hard to beat if you can get out of you car quickly. The sniper rifle or the minigun if you have one and are a high enough level to have it. I also drive the nightshark and it took 6 hits from a tank before it blew up. And if you are moving fast and not in a straight line then the rocks will miss half the time. It gives you a chance anyway. I would like the product sell vehicles to have weapons like the nightclub vehicles do. Even if we have to pay for them

Are mansions likely to happen with a casino DLC ? I would say "why not", but I'm not really sure.

I'm not sure where the hell you two are getting that from, in this video I'm firing as soon as the reticle moves to a target, you can see the missiles homing in to the targets but missing due to the inferior tracking, specially nearing the ending of the video:

 

 

This is even more evident in dog fights because this is pretty much my technique while flying my Pyro, press and hold X to fire the missiles straightaway and make the target go for a loop, there's no cool down on those missiles so I can just keep on firing in case they don't go for a loop.

With keyboard and mouse? Maybe, the videos I see of Guilemaster on PC free-aim servers shows him getting wrecked from a Mk2 mouth-breather from time to time, but maybe he needs some tips from you.

 

On X-One and PS4 though? With the Analog sticks for aiming? Good f*cking luck.

A Mk2 has 30 missiles, and they can be spawned at your feet free of cooldown with replenished missiles...Your Nightshark can only get you so far before the Mk2 eats you up and continues to do so.

There are way too many variables in play that undermines this, like traffic, obstacles and even speed of your vehicle.

 

Evading said missiles in a fast motorbike like the Shotaro? Maybe you can with some luck.

 

In a Post-OP Van? Nope.

In a Brickade? Also nope.

In a Titan? LOL

 

And guess which of said vehicles you're supposed to use to sell your cargo?

Have you tested this on actual players? This might differ from NPC's to actual players.

Same thing, like I said I use this on dogfights by just holding X and continually firing the missiles of my Pyro, I don't wait until full lock and fire straightaway as soon as the reticle moves to the targets.

 

I'll try to get some dogfight footage to show here but you can verify yourself.

[MGgames100]

 

 

Oke hot take here: Rather than the more garage space, I'd prefer this to be an actual parking spot, where you can put your one car and rest of the lobby can do the same...

It would have been the best spot for car meets!

Sadly knowing R* it will be 10 more garage slots for you to buy sh*t from DLC and then forget about em...

The way to get around it is simple. Use chips like a real casino, and only allow the exchange one way i.e. chips to GTA$ so that there is no way to actually buy chips.

 

As suggested in the thread, I could see them giving away a small daily amount and then have various other events and promotions with ways to get them.

 

The kicker will be that if there is a casino-specific currency, the exchange rate will probably be really rubbish, i.e. 10,000 chips gives you only 100 GTA$ and / or there will be daily caps and other restrictions so that players can't clean up and win a fortune.

Then this only applies to The Homing launcher. Weird, since the Homing launcher and the Buzzard have the same tracking. But i guess the lock-on is different. Just checked it, you need to wait before it's red. I assumed this because they used the same rockets. Oh well, one of those things.

I fear it will be just another horrendous grind, like the Arena War's Arena Points.

Here's some nice music to play while waiting for the Casino...

Probably, although I gave Arena War a complete side-step so I wouldn't know.  

 

They'll find some way to fudge it up. I can't see us spending time in there winning millions like CJ did back in those halcyon days.

Arena War was utterly painful.  I stopped playing and just ended up buying things at full price.  On top of that, it came with a great bonus glitch of resetting all my ammo to zero whenever I played the Arena War games, so that was nice.  I have literally no reasons to ever play the mode again.

Not to be pedantic.. but 20 missiles, not 30.

AGAIN, you don't have to wait at all:

 

(Good God, I feel dirty flying that thing but I had to prove my point)

 

This has been like that since 2013, I fire as soon as change to the Homing missile, reticle already on the target but in theory it doesn't have a full lock-on, but it doesn't matter.

 

BTW the tracking Homing Rocket Launcher is a tad bit more accurate than the standard Homing missiles.
