How do I get that NOW like they have already done? Can't beat a team where 1 person quickly kills 3 of your team, without the same tools. If this is proof of hackers, how about a notice during loading : " in aw, if you see an RC car dropping EXPLOSIVE mines, invite, view joined, report". This is weird, the RC on Game Masters only comes with cinetic mines(which are only good to deal with bikers), unless they were blowing their selves up and you didn't notice it. Are you sure they had explosive mines? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wscratch 734 Posted January 11 Does the rc bandito takes one regular garage spot? i read somewhere that you need arena war garage to store this but does this thing needs one spot or is it like the drone in the terrorbyte? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It wont take garage space. You need the Arena workshop to customize the RC bandito, and it's requested via the player interaction menu without a MOC/Avenger/Terrorbyte. Also, i'm hoping for a RC bandito today! Edited January 15 by MrARCO Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pedinhuh 16,960 Posted January 16 (edited) If this instantly take us off radar and essentually removes us from the game map, there's lots of fun to be had with tryhards with this thing A EMP pulse and taser like the Battle Drone would be greatly appreciated on free roam too, but mines will have to do for the now. shame about the price tough, this definitely should not cost over a f*cking million, it's a RC toy for God's sake!

I played this game for hours on end... It still had a big community a few years ago. Damn fun, I think I need to reinstall it and look the community back up. Wrt Bandito.. A must have car… Wondering how it all works. Where character goes. Should be nice to go into an apartment, look out thorugh the window and fire up the bandito … Probably just works like a regular car… Anyway, must have.. 🙂 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Commche 411 Posted January 19 GhillieMaster's video on this got me interested; by want to see the reviews and find out if it's worth it or not. Hope it is because I bought the arena workshop just to put red headlights on all my vehicles and haven't gotten much else use out of it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RyuNova 10,727 Posted January 19 Burning myself out so I have a question. I have just over 1.5 million spare so do I treat myself to an RC Bandito when it comes out or buy a Tulip now? I dont think I can play much more. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tulip is a good looking car but thats it, just another car. At least RC car gives you some new feature. It might be actually useful. So If I had to pick one I would go for Bandito. ontopic - I think they should add something like this as well: 18 hours ago, Piro said: TopFun Toys - Armored van or a truck filled with RC toys (cars, planes helis, drones and rc missiles from arena wars) - People in your organization can use 4 toys at the same time - Unlock different abilities and weapons for your toys - New missions similar to diamond shopping, headhunt and executive search - Organize RC races - Make a replica of any personal vehicle you want (it shouldn't cost more then 100k-200k) - last unlock is a military drone Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hazzardtohimself 2,021 Posted January 19 Thanks to Piro ^ (always having the best / most mentally stimulating theories), I've suddenly got an image of a new adversary mode (sorry) or similar. Rockstar can dig into its ancient and obscure pop-culture references again, and look at any number of 80s/90s films where it's people versus 'sentient' models etc. Small Soldiers and Toys spring to mind. Say team One is on foot, with a number of weapons and has to defend an area of the map or a creator-built structure (or maybe use some interiors) from team Two, who have an unlimited but relatively fragile supply of RC vehicles. But mainly racing. Racing please. With or without Revolt-esq weapons, or with a proper top-down view ala Micro Machines / original GTA. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alvarez 8,450 Posted January 20 Love the thing, also got a modded race with Banditos in it one time, it got deleted unfortunately. The who RC thing adds the whole new dimension to the game, that can turn small areas in huge tracks and Rockstar can also profit from this by downscaling the existing models. (minimum effort for new content, i know, it's a questionable practic) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

carnerd3000 4,475 Posted January 25 (edited) This has to be one of the most overpriced vehicles in the game. It costs more than some of the supers. But I cannot wait until this bastard comes out, as well as some races for it. I've wanted R* to bring back RC cars for a long time, and minus the price, they nailed it IMO. I would love to own more than one, or at least be able to keep any customization options after I buy them so I could switch out the bodies, but I don't think that's going to happen, so oh well.

Happy Hunter 52,382 Posted January 25 On 12/21/2018 at 12:41 AM, Gaffa said: Apologies about the delay, wanted to be sure of stuff. Quite an interesting little vehicle I must say! Left info in the spoiler - don't read if you don't want to be spoiled! Okay, not exactly overwhelming information but hopefully useful to some... Reveal hidden contents Vehicle: Top speed seems around 60mph so don't expect anything spectacular. Handles quite well, be careful of bumps though. Quite like a real RC car there. Damage Resistance: Interesting for sure. What happens is, once the vehicle gets to a 0 engine health value either from being fired at or general damage, the value will start decreasing from 0 to -4000 and at -4000, the vehicle stops operating and the driver (owner) gains control of their character again, as the screen for the RC Bandito fades away. The vehicle can still be driven though during this time the RC Bandito is 'destroying itself' by the 0 to -4000 engine health value. Homing Launcher CAN lock onto this little thing, and it'll take 2 shots before the vehicle will be destroyed (although not immediately). You don't need to fire more than 2 shots, and doing so will just shorten the remaining time the operator can use the RC bandito. Homing Launcher / RPG / Sticky Bomb / Grenade Launcher all do the same damage at about 750 damage per shot. When using guns, aim for the rear as that's where the engine is IIRC - 5 shots from the Heavy Revolver Mk.2 with FMJ rounds is enough to get it to the stage where it'll be "destroyed" (see above). Note, the RC Bandito's engine will be smoking before it gets to a 0 engine health value, and you won't have any more than 30 seconds usage once it's at 0 engine health. Also bear in mind that once vehicles in the game get to a stage were their engines are smoking badly Other The vehicle is accessed in via the Interaction Menu > Inventory, where at the bottom you'll see an option to play with your RC Bandito. Upon selecting that option, the player model is essentially de-spawned from the game world and can't be messed with. The RC Bandito does not appear on the radar*. The only time it does appear on the radar is if a CEO or VIP launches it and you're in the same organisation as them - the vehicle doesn't have a blip on the radar* but the CEO / VIP proximity circle basically indicates where the vehicle is. The Remote Bomb option must be purchased via the RC Bandito Workshop in the Arena in order to 'detonate' the vehicle, although it does have Proximity Mine options. You're only able to deploy thee (3) EMP Mines from the RC Bandito - that's all the ammo it has there*. Not sure if the other option - the Kinetic Mine - has any more ammo but I'll check that later. It could be a bug, but the game files suggest all five new Arena War type mines should be available for this vehicle, but only the Kinetic and EMP mines are options in the RC Bandito Workshop. *these things are possibly STC - subject to change with the official release of the vehicle. Any updates will be added to this post. Anything else you'd like me to check or test let me know and if it's possible I'll get right on it. So this can take a missile and not be on a timer before it's destroyed? Meanwhile an Apache or Hind takes a hit, then it's smoking and will fall down. Rockstar makes no sense at all. Sounds like great fun though. Taking you off the map - should be an easy way to get safe from jets and orbital cannons too. Well, entire groups of enemy players actually.
