I'm getting a little bit depressed about lack of infos, aren't you too?

I almost went there but stopped in time. I realized I was getting agitated because It's taking so long.. While not really caring about the content itself. Crazy right?

 

Here's everyone's favorite scientist / sex symbol, Mr. Rick Sanchez, to help me sum it up:

I miss anything? Fun drop anymore "its not coming 25th" hints? 

Nope, and because of that I'm changing the goalposts of what I'm looking forward to, to get my mind off the update itself and stop subconsciously hyping it up to be this incredible thing that'll change the game for the better. Instead I'm waiting for Thursdays Newswire as it's the final day to sign up for the first batch of bonuses on Twitch Prime. All we know is that you'll get an extra minimum 10% off of already event week discounts, and what Rockstar are calling Premium Items.

 

I'm more interested in what Premium Items could entail. Prizes on the big win slot of the Lucky Wheel that we can buy for Arena War prices? The "unique shopping" items you can only buy at the DCR, like clothes... vehicle upgrades? I also wanna bring attention back to those wild mechanics I stumbled across on July 4th. I've NEVER seen a mechanic randomly spawn once on the Next-Gen version of the game. And what are the chances of them spawning on the highway right outside the Casino when we know Rockstar are releasing an update about it.

 

Maybe Benny's won't be returning, but instead, the mechanics will work for the DCR and have a private garage that offers unique upgrades (like Nitros) and other body mods for older cars or even Upgrade to Custom style upgrades like Benny's. MK3 weaponry so they're even more high tech or we can customize them to be like the Nightmare version of Arena War vehicles?

 

I'm going into this with Ill-Gotten Gains 3 prices in mind.

it ruins it for you, but not for me i pointed out 9 counters for the mk2 all work pretty good too 

how much cool down does it have? 2mins between orders so for the cool down to be effective you would need to blow up their mk2 twice in 2 mins, i really dont see what its gonna solve 

then passive pop them back you can kill someone in passive if you got the know how 

EWOing also works for both players you can do it back

you have cops on you EWO dont like your spawn EWO its part of the game, dont hate the player hate the game 

 

they recently changed EWO so the attacker still gets the kill and the guy who EWO dont get a death, 

 

lets say you remove the EWO feature, how many complaints is that gonna generate people being locked in gun shops and clothing store etc 

 

its very well going oh i dont like this feature it needs removed but how is it gonna effect other aspects of game play 

1. Those counters don't work if you're in a slow af unarmored delivery vehicle

2. Since the cooldown is 2 minutes, that means you blow up their MKII and you have 2 minutes to escape instead of about 15 seconds

3 & 4.Passive popping and EWO are lazy and sh*tty tactics. Neither one was designed to be used in such a way, so while I'll blame the game a bit I'll certainly blame the player as well. 

5. I've been playing the game for about 2 years and have NEVER been in a situation where I have needed to use EWO.

 

Like White Shark mentioned, the only people that would be affected by the MKII getting a nerf are the ones who use it to grief. Nerfing the weapons doesn't affect the players that use it for grinding/quick transportation 

 

The MKII needs a nerf in this update 

 

End rant.

I'm just chiming in to say that grinders were getting by just fine with a CEO Buzzard with it's 3 minutes cooldown and standard missiles before the first and then the second Oppressors came by.

 

There's no justification for opposing the nerf on the Oppressors by removing them from the MC menu(which automatically gives them a 2 minutes cooldown by PV request) and nerfing the tracking of its homing missiles...Unless you're a griefer who using said vehicles just to pester other players constantly, by relying on the missiles.

 

Also throw in the Deluxo in the mix too because that vehicle also has missiles that are way faster and accurate than they should have been.

get out the slow af unarmored delivery vehicle and auto aim the driver works

you know them slow af unarmored delivery vehicle are quite armoured and there is a counter for being attacked in a delivery vehicle in that you find new session and you lose very little 

 

hopefully you have friends in that session helping you with them delivery's and you can join back and slay that tryhard greefer till he leaves or team up and kick him

no there is no cooldown 1st time unless they have only just got their mk2 delivered basically you kill them you have the time it takes them to phone insurance and get it re-delivered

i fully agree with this on passive popping but have to wonder what exactly EWO was designed for

it depends how you use, you kill a guy a couple of times theres a good chance your health is low and cops are on you if you EWO you get health back + cops are gone and thats all good but then you get the sh*tty tactics, people who EWO when you lock on to them in a heli and they EWO before the missile hits or they on the beach doing it again and again to try and get a good spawn or they do it after every kill

mk2 missiles are already very weak takes 60 to blow up a insurgen

we gonna have to agree to disagree 

 

some people think it needs a nerf some people dont, the big question is will it get a nerf,

 

i dont think it will because i dont think it needs one

So? Either fight them off, or die. Unless you're one of those tryhards who would rather die in real life than let your K/D drop, I don't see how you NEED to EWO here...

At this point your health would be in the red. If you are fighting a tryhard you wouldnt want him to spawn back behind you and get a cheap easy kill and give him the satisfaction.

Because if you do this will be followed by him going into passive and you will be bombarded with text messages of lzz, rip, trash even though you are still up on him.

if you just read the next sentence 

 

"if you EWO you get health back + cops are gone"

EWO has put you both on a even playing field (so to speak) 

 

i do agree that EWO mechanics need to be addressed a bit better, if they put a cool down timer on it and made it so you can't EWO in a vehicle then that would solve the issues i have with it 

 

anyway we  are (kinda) going way off topic with this 

[IsekaiExpress]

Well i started watching Rising of The Shield Hero, so my life has a purpose again, yay.

 

OT: I speculate purely defensive armored vehicles.

Yeah... I have no interest in debating with an obvious griefer who is trying to defend their sh*tty tactics. I've done it before on here and it's pointless.

lol im deffo not a griefer or a try hard what makes you think i am

 

like i said

i dont think it will because i dont think it needs one"

 

lets just leave it at that, stop arguing and go back to on topic speculation 

[Fozzie]

I speculate you guys are going to get a warning about a  2 day ban and a bunch of posts wiped for arguing about Off Topic bullsh*t....

 

No insider info here,  just speculation 

[OzakiLeona]

I speculate MK2 will be nerfed. Or rather countered by something new. RS does actually care, it just takes them some time. Next DLC in most cases.

[Johnny GTA Watson]

I speculate/hope that we can just live in the casino. It would be great to have a proper business interface for buying and checking stock. That would be it then just go around in your velour tracksuit gambling away. Occasionally calling in the team for a few sales

My source said this is correct.

[VitoCorleone1992]

I speculate that this thread will reach mark IX before the dlc arrives! xD Come on people, chill out.

[Hiphopzebra]

So, what are the chances we get real info this week, because even though we said likely the last few weeks I feel as if some people from the start have figured the end of July because of after hours

I think it is very reasonable to believe we will get information this week for a 25th release date. 

[lowriderlife63]

I speculate that we will get more American vintage cars.

Unless they are planning a surprise release on the 25th I’d say 100% chance we get info this week. 

[rollschuh2282]

i speculate we will reach page 400 before we get new info...

but i hope for info when we reach page 300

oh geez,w w w well if we gonna go off topic and get a 2 day ban lets do it properly right 

 

speculation video

Spoiler

interesting (kinda) off topic video 

we have to be right on top of an update, props changing, a newswire that says "stay tuned"  clearly theres been some kind of delay, i wonder if take two can or will have a go at rockstar about this delay or even if it is an issue 

 

can anyone tell me does take two own rockstar or what if rockstar wanted to drop take two and do it with out a publisher or what ever they are

Take two will eat them alive if they tried. They will ruin them and every last bit of good reputation they have and bury them so... so deep under a pile of heavy, smelly sh*t. I doubt there will be anything left of good ol' Rockstar.

 

I just hope that one day "The Benz" can make a GTA without everything we hate about GTA.

 

Holy sh*t that video kinda sounds like MrYouKnowWho... I'm getting PTSD listening to it x)

Take Two bought Rockstar since 1998 (DMA Design at the time), so I don't think that they can just separate from them, Take Two literally owns the company.
