The first rule of the fight club, is that you don't talk about the fight club.

 

Seriously though, I think that it would be a great idea, considering the fact that we don't use melee that much in the GTA series.

Well we need to convince R* to give us a fight club first then we can NOT talk about it.

Hell yeah.  I actually think this wouldve been cool under the casino instead of the music locker  Bet on horses upstairs and people down in the basement. 

 

Oh and I just gave the main post a massive update.  Organized it better so its easier to read,  corrected some errors and even slipped in a few more ideas such as human sheilds?  lol  Check out BASIC COMMANDS in the main post to see what I mean. 

 

Also,  I ran into this video today.  Pretty damn cool and close ot what Im proposing.  Credit goes to DatBoyKatz.  Check it out for a little hype.

During the opening cutscene for the FC DLC you should be able to choose a steroidal or non-steroidal career path. And you're contact would differ based on that choice. 

 

Damn R* get your ass in here.

Ambitious DLC, tbh i don't think that half of that would come, specially in what concern new mechanics...but it's a great idea. Congrats.

Can I ask what you think wouldnt happen and why?  Do you simply think R* will choose not to or you think its not possible.  Most of whats suggested is already in the game in one way or another.

Not sure what you mean but I looked that up and all I saw were deathmatches named "Prison Thugz Fights".  If you think this is a request for a new mele deathmatch then please read the OP if you get time.

Fight Club could be an actual spectator event. Shame R* lackin like a mofo.

lol  I agree.  R* could put the freemode fight missions in a passive bubble.  For example,  like Imani's "out of sight" ability.  Anything in the bubble can only be killed with mele or mele weapons.

Oh OK lol  Currently Franklin has a payphone mission where you go around the map and kill internet trolls.  This video is the exact same mission except with mele.  Do it R*!!!

Aside from the TBOGT mini-game - what else do you expect a Fight Club DLC to consist of? In particular, something with the same spectacle of a Heist/Contracts or something like the Casino Storyline or Dre Contract to earn at least $1m per hour.

TBOGT mini-game?  lol  First of all you're thinking too small.  A fight mini-game like TBOGT would just be what happens inside the gyms but "outside" in freeroam...

 

* player made "Fight Meets" ala Car Meets

* Contact missions like Franklin's payphone hits except these would require mele

* Premium Fights - same as Premium Races except these arent locked to 8 players.  Its a 4, 8 or 16 man tournament depending on how many join.

* R* created jobs with different sets for fighting and the ability to change rules like first to 10 wins,  most wins in a certain time,  mele weapons or hands only, etc

* VS modes for double money events

 

AND along with an updated mele system to explore all these things R* will most likely include what you mentioned.

Of course but if you're implying its just me then google gta fightclub and see its not or get on FiveM or ask the PC guys who make all the fight club mods.

if R* were to make a fight club DLC.
it would suck lol.
the melee system in teh game is not good,

it worked in IV and would work in RDR2 since the melee in those is much more advanced.

and then how do you think R* would handle it?
a rep system?
1000 ranks and with each won match you get 200rp?

i think you imagine it more fun than it would be.
even with Tuners there was more to do.
what else except fight someone would be possible?
 

Here you go again making an assumption of how it would be then disliking your own assumption like its fact.  Wtf?  lol  What kinda argument is this?  Do you know for a fact R* will just stack a whole DLC on top of the current mele system with zero changes at all?  smh  I've already stated the needed changes to make mele good and nothing I suggested is impossible.  It doesnt need to be like RDR2.  I'll gladly wait for GTA6 to get something like that or better but since Online is still chugging along I see no reason why they cant give the current system a little upgrade in the form of a DLC.

 

You must understand.  This is not just about a Fight Club.  Thats just the suggested theme in order to usher in a new mele system.  Mele fighting would go much deeper than just fighting in a ring.  Think Splinter Cell or Metal Gear Solid with missions that require you to sneak and take out enemies silently which  makes this a perfect opportunity for R* to incorperate animations like weapons disarming or human shields.

 

As for the rep system,  again you make an assumption then ridicule your own assumption.  smh  How is this a question for me anyway?  I am not in control of how much RP is given.  I also dont see how RP a gripe to dis the widea as a whole either.  Thats your arguments?  lol

 

No its clearly the opposite.  YOU imagine it worse than what it would be and as I've said before,  just because YOU cant think of things to do doesnt mean there wont be anything else to do.  Read what I posted under the first quote above or just keep hatin for no reason.

Moved the reply to each person on the other topic into here, given this exists, so discussion (or most probably arguing...) on this Fight Club thing can be kept here in the original topic you made, cheers!

 

No worries about the bump, I think it's good you have a dedicated topic for it (with plenty of effort in the OP!) so others can chip in without it being in the general DLC discussion topic.

[Carlin_Stanhope]

Loved the different fighting styles from San Andreas. Would welcome karate & dirty boxing styles coming back. And get rid of the spam punches or whatever it's called, totally killed random street fights in free roam. That's still a main pleasure or playing red dead 2, the hand to hand encounters. Sorry for the rambling. 

[Mexicola9302]

It would only work with a complete overhaul of the melee fighting system, and even then the DLC would be kinda boring after a while.

 

R* could also add Lasertag or Paintball, or Wrestling or whatever it would also be boring after playing it for a while.

 

I just hope for a better melee system in GTA VI, i don't think anything will be done in current GTA Online anymore.

I'm not sure why you think its the "only" way but ok well the changes I suggested in the OP would feel like an overhaul.  As you stated,  you want a better fight system for GTA 6 and I agree but when is that?  Why not get a little improvement to what we have now until then?

 

Sure things get boring after awhile for some but thats kind of irrelevant to wether its good when it releases.  I honestly think the change of pace gives it a good shot to last longer than you think. 

 

I'm with you and I cant see why we wouldnt.  They gave RDR2 a nice system.  They very well could be done adding to Online but I'll stay optimistic until they announce it themselves..

The problem with your criticism is its based off the assumptions that R* will just slap a DLC on the current mele system AND that people want a DLC base only on the mele combat but carry on.

 

 

 

Which is exactly what they would do.

 

Unless, hmmm perhaps you're onto something here. Maybe your idea could work if they called it...oh, let's see, something both catchy and all-encompassing? Let me think on it a moment...meditate on it a moment...pray on it a moment. How about they name the DLC Fight Club: The Definitive Edition! How awesome would that be? Hey, I bet they could even get GSG to develop it, right? They don't seem to be very busy these days. Or even better, how about Fight Club: Expanded & Enhanced perhaps? Oh, that would be so fantasmagorical, wouldn't it?

 

Geeze! Of course I am basing this on the assumption that Rockstar will just slap a DLC on the current melee system, because..duh, that is precisely what they would to if this idea is implemented. OMG, do I really have to even explain this to you at this point in time? Your Fight Club thread pretty much begins with "Day 1 player here". On a side note, for my money, this may be the one time I would thank God for Rockstar laziness and apathy, because even if all your ideas were followed, say if Rockstar hired you to spearhead this project, this still sounds like one boring-ass non-GTA DLC, and the devs have to know that without massive overhauls to the combat as we know it, this would be an absolute joke. Yeah, I read your thread you linked to in the post. I'm sure it would make a okay fighting game with a lot of interesting potential facets to it (like gambling, social stuff, venue ownership, and blah, blah, blah) in another series. Not in GTA.

 

If Rockstar were going to put the kind of insane amount of effort into, let's say this summer DLC, I would much rather they double-down on more GTA'esque motifs and ideas. There are about a zillion other things I would rather see than to have this barely conscious dev team slap together some huge DLC based upon a combat system that is, at best mediocre; and if they suddenly grew some inspiration to not just piss out some minor hand-to-hand tweaks and build an entire update around that nonsense, and they were finally going to really roll up their sleeves, then how about adding real estate, such as islands like San Fierro or Venturas?

 

Sorry, but there are so many much better ideas than Fight Club, even if Rockstar decided to grow a pair and really give us something amazing with a future update to GTAO.

I can´t think of anything more boring than a fight club dlc. Melee sucks. Especially in a game where guns and explosives exist.

Exactly my point. One of the most ridiculous ideas I have seen ooze from this forum in a long time. There are so many other things Rockstar could do if they actually decide to roll up their sleeves and create brand new content from the ground up.

Dont ever attempt Standup. 

 

Geeze is right.  lol  An assumption is what YOU "think" they will do WITHOUT any proof not what R* WILL actually do.  smh  You cant make up an assumption,  judge your own assumption then pass that judgment off on my idea as if they are the same.  wtf kinda nonsense is this?  My idea doesnt sounds boring.  Your assumption is boring.  You should criticize yourself for not being creative enough to think of anything better.  Nope lets judge something that doesnt even exist yet instead.  lol  The flaw in this logic.    Since you are so sure what R* will do then whats the next DLC oh wise one?

 

You claim you read the thread but only mentioned gambling, social stuff and venue ownership which arent even the meat of the thread.  lol  I also didnt speak much if any at all on gambling or social stuff but ok you read it.    Also,  you say it contains interesting potential facets but claim they arent for GTA.  Huh?  Besides the new fight animations,  every single thing suggested in the idea already exists in GTA.  lol  My DLC idea is basically another Agency Contract and business that works like the Autoshop both of which are popular today.  

 

You speak about R* and their effort,  how often do you dance in GTA?  Did you request dancing?  Is dancing even GTA'esque?  Well R* put in effort to make nightclubs to dance in and what do you know a whole new controls scheme for dancing.  *gasp*  Yet somehow this cant be done for mele which "is" GTA'esque and has been a part of the default controls for how long?  lol  You rather have something else?  I can respect that but your argument against this is trash.

Imma be real with you. Rockstar is more focused into music-centered content. That Rockstar would rather prioritize a Fight Club if a celebrity they are aiming to work with asks them for exactly that.

 

You are better off asking them to feature a music artist who's into that sort of thing.

so R* is turning GTA into Grand Theft Audio now?  lol

 

I dont understand this logic.   So instead of R* adding a Fight Club because the community requested it they will only add it if a music celebrity requests it?  Wtf?  So Dr Dre requested the Autoshop with his DLC?  Also,  how is a Michael movie DLC music-centered and what music celebrity requested it?

Yeah so pretty much everything would be more exciting than a Fight Club DLC. Imagine having to level up to Fight Club rank 1000 to unlock the last item. Whatever that would be. 

 

I would rather have more weapon variety, it would be nice if they add a crossbow, bow and throwing knives, throwing axes and stuff like that, it would make stealth gameplay a bit more exciting. There aren't enough throwable and "exotic" weapons.

 

I mean sure an overhaul of the melee system would be nice, but a Fight Club DLC isn't really needed. And it's very very very unlikely to ever get this DLC.

 

TL:DR Fight Club DLC no, melee system overhaul yes. I want x-bows, bows, throwing knifes and axes.

I like the idea of x-bows,  throwing knives,  axes,  etc.    Actually more weapon variety would also come with this DLC.  Its not just about fighting.  Its full mele which also includes hand held weapons.  If you read my thread you would see I suggest weapons disarming as a special fight move.

 

An overhaul is not really needed imo.  I came up with something that will work just as good.  As for a Fight Club DLC,  they dont have to go 100% Fight Club but it makes no sense to update the mele and not at least give us something to use the new system in.  A fight club was just a suggested excuse to impliment an updated mele system.  The actual DLC can be anything,  another heist,  Agency Contract (which I actually suggest),  etc.  Was the nightclub DLC 100% dancing?
