What a load of sh*t the new Survival is. Recycling the Alien texture from Single Player and having you play as it to fight off enemy waves? f*ck off.

You're using the suits from arena wars. The aliens from single player cant handle weapons, theyre hands are pretty big.

Ate a peyote plant to see how it goes. Turned me into a pug. It was kinda fun... The first 2 minutes.

The bike is a bit underwhelming to be fair. Was hoping for a bit of that Fränken Strange-like Sprunk but it's not got that spark.

 

Looks nice and unique in the clubhouse though.

That sounds even more lame.

Welp, got all the Halloween items from the Casino.

 

The masks are great, and it's nice having more stuff to display on my empty shelves.... seriously hope they release the rest of those model cars at some point

damn, i guess it's a cool idea to be the aliens fighting in the backwoods/government agents, but i was hoping to be the republican space rangers fighting alien AI (seems like most of us were tbh) 

 

still a neat week i suppose, gives me a chance to get the sanctus on PC

I found a group of players all running around as animals and stalked them in my Bandito. I accidentally crashed into them a few times - it was really sad seeing poodles and bunnies flopping down the road

The Rampant Rocket is worse than I feared; check out the clip below this text if you're interested, but for all that, it's the most fun I've had in a while. Its unique example of fun, stupidity and crazy looks reigns over performance, speed or being sensible.

How was it possible that this custom built dragster bike is slower than mediocre sedan? Well, the creators of Hakuchou drag that corners better than the non-drag version are quite resourceful, obviously. However, spit roast sundays livery is hilarious when paired with appropriately dressed female character and mixed with randoms in missions. I giggled a lot from the messages.

Not played it but that alien survival is the complete opposite of what I thought it would be. If it sounds good you have to remember it's R*. I was hoping we'd fight aliens.

the aliens in gta 5 can not hold the weapons because the alien model  is too big for the weapon

I think he meant us fighting said aliens, kind of like the"Grass Roots" Side Mission from Story Mode:

 

 

Those aliens attack you with psychic beams in said Mission.

I guess I'm going to buy the trike too. I wonder if drives like sh*t or it's fun to drive.

It has insane grip in corners.

[jargonaut]

Yeah, I gotta hand it to R* - you really played us like a two dollar banjo

(But seriously, there can't be many people who heard "alien survival" and thought "we must be the aliens".)

Next, they'll add a zombie survival where we play as the zombies and take out redneck hillbillies.

 

Rockstar are just trolling.

I mean, the more I think about it, the more I hate the idea. I mean gta online was always like "be what you want and use what you got" but now it's like "use what we let you use"

...and (like heists) "Jump through these hoops markers, and--hey! You missed one! Go back."

 

Game play micromanagement in an open world game.

The new alien survivals suck, rockstar must of took too much drugs when making them O_o, probably the best one out of the new ones is the ranch since you can hide upstairs.

Honestly, I don't know why people are complaining about or hating on these "alien" survivals instead of trying to see the positive side? How many of posters have actually played them or understand the concept?

 

This is the city of Los Santos and the aliens have crash landed on mother earth. In Fort Zancudo, one of the crashed motherships is in the hangar and you can go right up to it, and there are other flying saucers in the sky (a unique aspect to GTA online). Up to four aliens who survive the crash get surrounded by multiple waves of NPCs who try to take them out for whatever reason. How could it be us fighting against the aliens, I ask you? Are we on planet Zorg II or have the aliens completely taken over the earth? No. Four pesky Zorgians are fighting for their lives against waves of humans, and not only that, the waves of NPCs differ from round to round. First a wave of O'Neill brothers, then waves of cops, FIB, etc. Rockstar have thought about this, although they do cut and paste a lot, I'll admit that, and even the 'costumes' look totally realistic, the health pick ups are eggs, armor is some type of alien pack, and you can even pick up NPC weapons and use them if you want. At Fort Zancudo there are Cargobob support choppers, Annihilators and even Valkyries later on.

 

Yeah, it's not perfect, folks, but it's an event week that never meets expectations ever, unless it's 3X payouts on absolutely everything. These survivals have paid out 2X over the last week and some of the maps are totally new with new ideas, props and concepts. It's not all bad, people.

The discounts were alright, bought a Paragon and a 8f Drafter for my second character and a Lurcher on my main. Didn't care for the alien survivals other than them not costing me ammo and giving use of the rail gun. Outside of that this week wasn't much to write home about.
