regarding the peyote plants...

[r2k]

what happens if a player kills me while im under the influence? does it show in the kill feed that player x killed player y? or is it like the rc car where you respawn without actually dying? 

[No Homing]

No it actually counts as a kill for them.

Makes it pretty useless as a way to kill players, you aren't off radar and a few bullets will kill you before you get close enough for melee.

They should have done it like the RC Bandito, it's not like animals are OP and neither are you off radar.

[DentureDynamite]

^^ I wouldn't mind it if players went off the radar as animals; could be some funny moments as a chicken tries pecking my feet.

 

Besides, I love fried chicken.

 

I assume the Peyote Plants will disappear when this Halloween week is over?

That's what I want to know. Are the animal high plants temporary? Also the way your character acts after taking them reminds me of this:

You can use RC bandito while being an animal. But first, you have to glitch into the interaction menu. You can do it the same way as you do with the RC car

There is a cooldown after using the plant. The cooldown translates to all the plants on the map, so you can't use one plant then go to another location in hope to find another - you won't find it.

The cooldown also translates to other sessions, you can't simply switch session and pick the plant.

 

Plants are unavailable to pick while doing VIP work or using BST.

[DentureDynamite]

^^ By "temporary" though, what I'm wondering is whether all the Peyote plants will be removed from GTA Online after the current Halloween week ends?

 

I only ask, as I didn't see anything in Rockstar's newswire that specified whether the plants themselves were a permanent addition to the game?

Not true, after I've spawned at a hospital and had the mechanic deliver my PV, I'm then able to go and eat another plant.

It seems the LAPD are utterly unable to shoot a dog. They are quite happy to blast people to bits for minor traffic infractions and staring in a built up area, but if a golden retriever runs amok at the airport and mauls a few dozen passengers to death (for example!) they just stand around swearing and cursing until they too are bitten and gnashed and chewed to bits. What a world we live in.

^^ Sounds like a great time to be a dog! 8^D

Really?    Pretty sure Gilliemaster said you can use Peyote back to back by going to a different location each time.      According to him each plant has a 48 minute cooldown tied to just that plant, but if you know the locations you can still go around the map picking up different plants.

Correct.

 

Each plant has a 48 minute cooldown, essentially 1 in-game day. This is per-plant, not all of them.

 

They are great to collect in between VIP Work / MC Contracts as that 5000RP is a good chunk of RP, specially for +1000's like myself.

 

As for them being removed. I reckon they are here to stay.

 

This is Rockstar's way of saying; "You wanted animals online? Well here ya go."

 

No complaints from me, though I would have prefered a pet

[DentureDynamite]

^^ IMO, this could be a way of introducing animals into GTA Online... I wouldn't be surprised to see animals/pets as a future update, with Peyote plants remaining to give players a limited means of playing as one.

 

Rockstar wants to make money, and keep as many players coming back as long as possible.

Asking on behalf of a friend, I wonder if taking peyote IRL really does reversibly turn you into an effete yappy poodle? 

 

Slightly (but not much) more seriously, I did notice something hilarious the other day. I spawned as a cow and after a few minutes I ended up near a fire station. A bunch of firemen came out to try to beat me up. It wasn't quite Pamplona but it was fun for a while.

 

Then another time, as a dog, I ran around biting NPCs for a while until a Merryweather mercenary unit turned and killed me! I wasn't close to other players in the map as far as I could tell. Not sure if someone ordered that for me or if the game spawned it..?

Weaponized pigeon MKII, with homing missiles and minigun, $6000000. Can only be realistically countered by the Kahnjali cat ($7500000)

I was not aware till this thread that getting killed counts as a kill, I am think I am done with being an animal online.

it´s great. they forget that in SP with the peyote plants at release.

so if you were a cat and stood close to a cop, they would shoot you.

 

seems like R* fixed it by turning the cops of for you in online as a animal

Can't you just fake the score anyway?

Like, make a fake account, change the i to a l or vice versa?

If R* has decided to leave peyotes online WITH the 5kRP bonus beyond this week, then rank has lost the little meaning it ever had

 

I did a full tour picking up every single plant just to see where they were, and then did a partial one in which I only picked up ones on land and closest to each hospital. In latter I soon noticed I had to re-register to MC after each spawn cause my 2-min mechanic cooldown still had around 30 secs - or even more - left from the previous vehicle call. In other words we are talking about easy 30 x 5000 RP /h, and closer to 40 x 5000 RP /h for those who really want to rank up. In an imaginary situation where a new player would loan a friend's opp and would know where to go to pick these up, we are talking about rank 1 to rank 27, or rank 1 to rank 32 during the first hour of playing. Eight hours of this would rank you up to level 85 or nice and even 100.

And that's without the glitch to pickup the same one over and over again.

I don't know anything about any glitches; on my latter test round I picked up different land plants close to each hospital.

That's why I said without, you can rank up even faster with this glitch.

If you can't beat them and then have to resort to 'FakingScores' then I wonder who the real low-life is here  

 

But, I'm gonna go stop right here before I get a warning on my arse.
