Such wasted potential

[ChiroVette]

@Flash FM, I understand your point. You are essentially saying that if the Aircraft Carrier were in the game all the time, as some are suggesting it should be, then people would still be complaining, right? But that is only your perception of the folks in this forum, and not based on actual fact. You are assuming that having an aircraft carrier in the game all the time would be something complained about, which is not accurate, since it hasn't happened yet. That's why you're getting such a hard time. Because you're underhandedly asserting an insulting premise, which is that the GTA fans here are a bunch of whining, complaining cry-baby's never happy with anything.

 

You know what I think? If that's what you really believe, then say it. Don't hide your disparaging remarks behind the veil of some mysterious, cryptic pronouncement. At least have the temerity to be honest and up front about your accusation.

 

On Topic:

 

-I think we are going to get a substantial expansion of apartments/garages that the player is able to own at one time.

-In addition to lifting the cap on the sheer amount of properties, I think they are going to add more properties.

-Speaking of properties, I think that there is going to be some inclusion of what many are anticipating, which is mansions of some sort. I also predict they will be VERY expensive, so start saving up your GTA Funny-Money, folks!

-VERY SMALL island possible. Not a meaningful map expansion, like some are clamoring for. They aren't going to add FIerro, Venturas, or LC. But I can definitely see them adding some small island off the coast, similar to what Criteria did with Burnout Paradise, adding Big Surf Island to the final update for the game.

-More heists, and a different type, perhaps, as speculated, on its own little island

-More missions, both for solo and groups and PvP.

-Another business type in addition to, or perhaps also as part of the MC Businesses.

my conjecture is based on precedent.  people would DEFINITELY complain and say it's boring and has no purpose.

you are reading too much into it, my point was the way it was added with the BBs makes it special and imo very cool, it's better than it not being there at all

We need more vip/ceo jobs for sure, i send to Rockstar feedback My ideas some including arena war vehicles, imagine burning npcs with the cerberus and hearing "extra crispy" but more vip/ceo jobs of any kind Will be a Nice edition in My book

No. The majority of people here complain about things that get in the way or are obtrusive. People complain about the Oppressor MKII, for instance. Or the things that make the game very grindy in places. They complain about the AI, the functionality of weapons, garage limitations, and so forth. Maybe a tiny fraction of people would overtly complain about things like an always available Aircraft Carrier, but very, very few. People might say that such and such a thing is useless, like, say the yacht or Casino Penthouse, but that isn't the same as an overt complaint. I think the yacht is useless in a way, but I bought one anyway. And I don't regret the purchase, nor do I think that its bad to have aesthetically pleasing things in the game that can also be "useless" in a practical way.

You might actually have a point, except that your first statement, quoted above, confirms that my assumption is correct. You are saying that you believe, though have no proof, that people would complain about the fact that the carrier were in the game at all, as a constant fixture. Yes, people have a lot of complaints about this game. I do, as well. But that isn't the same as saying most people would complain about such trivialities as "this is in the game too much and isn't special."

my dude, this forum is like 90% complaining about trivial sh*t, are you blind or special needs?

[ChiroVette]

The map is its own special case, though. And I love the map, by the way, but that's very much beside the point. The map has its own compartmentalized set of complaints, because many people believe that there are a ton of things and wasted potential. Complaints such as no real forest, too much "wasted space," too many mountains, not enough city, or whatever. The map has always been a staple of GTA complaints since the game released in 2013, and this extends even to SP. Don't get me wrong, I don't agree with the complaints, but I do understand them. People wanted what Rockstar promised, which was expansions and the continuation of the SP experience. So ragging on the map is par for the cause. But generalized map complaints are not the same as people railing against a structure innocuously off the coast that has little practical value, such as an aircraft carrier. The complaints about the map are much more global complaints about the basic formula and implementation of all of the map or large portions of it. I seriously doubt many people would complain about an AC any more than more people complain about the yacht, which is arguably just as "useless" an appendage.

I'd enjoy that lorry, but would settle for just using the one in story mode where Trevor and Franklin take the cars up to Paleto Bay at least. Be it I/E or a new VIP transporter job.

Nope!

On a side-note, i'm loving the new larger BB events and i feel like they could use the same approach to make some new CEO/VIP/MC missions, give us some more that actually properly involve other players. (beyond "hey this user is trying to make money, blow up their sh*t please")

 

Random ideas:

- Car meet like we already have for some of the import/export jobs, but now there are 6-8 top tier cars at the one meet, and when the person who 'spawned' the mission has delivered their first car, the whole session gets pointed to the remaining cars and a 20min timer starts.

- Biker meet, same as above (6-8 cargo items, person who started the event gets first pick, after first delivery everybody gets called in and 20min timer) but now you have to bring chopper bikes to your clubhouse, and on delivery it will randomly select one of your MC companies (with room for more stock) and add some stock to that.

- Privacy Prevention 2.0, thats essentially just a freemode version of that captain mission, your yacht moves further away from coast (beyond sniping-from-coast-range / at least half the distance of the aircraft carrier) theres rough weather and ocean, and there are waves of npc's attacking. Instead of protecting a zone on the yacht, you simply have to survive (a minimum of one member of your org/mc alive on your yacht) for 15-20 minutes, if other players show up the NPC's attack them just as much, but those players can win by making sure there is nobody left alive on the yacht. Also anti-air should be enabled / no broomsticks allowed to this party.

- Protect the VIP, CEO/VIP/MC picks a destination (uses map marker, has to be a minimum of a few km away, kinda like how impromptu race works) and everybody in the session is told to kill the vip / boss, considering how fast we can travel these would be short events with a short cooldown & small pay-out, it would just be a way of making a little extra cash while driving between companies or w/e. No lock-on to the VIP allowed.

Should be like a special crate mission... assistant calls..."boss we have an opportunity there is a special shipment of exotic vehicles in the docks", You cargobob them to the Warehouse and You have a 3/4 vehicle sell mission like the pic shows

Not to mention more cars to steal on Import/Export too, complete with new Collections too.

 

Selling the same chromed FMJ with dollar wheels for the Nth time gets boring, quickly.

 

They could even put cars on I/E behind a rotation of sorts, so there's some variety in the cars you steal.

 

This would mess up with the only Top Range method? Well, yeah, but at this point I'd rather have more variety instead of a repetitive grind.

[MekhiSkyline]

Especially theft missions like these!

 

And add this Mitsubishi Montero/Pajero (Maibatsu Monstrosity!)

And the Mitsubishi Starion (Maibatsu Thunder)

I'd honestly would like to see some new trucks like a Western Star 5700XE with the ability to customize them, since we got this option for planes too. Just imagine hitting NPCs with a beast like this:

No but seriously, if we ever get that imo it makes a lot more sense for a maibatsu thunder to be some sh*tty compact hybrid vehicle, bscly a conglomeration of different Mitsubishi Colt's

The major problem with I/E is that it makes no sense...first of all, "your customer wants a costumized vehicle, so, costumized it how you like it, and not how the customer wants it" - never customers saw so many chrome cars in their collection. And the worst and illogical thing is delivering damaged cars. I get that it pays lower if they are damaged but...what person would accept a damaged car that they bought new?! xD Then it would make sense the truck to deliver the cars, they would go much more protected, it would be slower trasportation but the payment could be better. And speaking about payment, what kind of deal is that? I know that back in the day the I/E was one of the best methods of grinding and is still relevant, but...we take like 10% of the valour of the car? Where goes the rest 90%?

If that truck could turn in something like this, would be cool. xD I mean, we have flying bikes, so...the realism in this game went out of the track some while ago, then, why not creating the "Oppressor Program" with mechas, exosqueleton suits and crazy sh*t like that?!

For me, the problem isn't a realism or contextual one. My problem with sourcing/selling vehicles via the I/E Garage is its not worth the time and energy for the payout. And this is even being able to force High End only cars. First off, it costs $20 Grand to upgrade, so you can make a max of $80 Thousand. But sourcing them is a real pain in the ass half the time, and even trying to use my Cargobob, both for bringing back as well as delivering vehicles, once I start factoring even a SMALL amount of damage with the time it takes to source and sell, its just not worth it to me. The caveat, of course, is that what is and is not worth it, in terms of reward versus work, is purely subjective.

I never used the cargobob, it's slower that way, not to mention that i almost of the times when it was the cargobob mission to get the car in the ocean, i just changed session.

Thats exactly why I rarely do I/E, because when you sell the cars, the percentage your given is getting the short of the stick basically.

I'd love to see an update that updates a lot of older content, such as CEO businesses, with new objectives and ways of delivering your goods. A lot of the businesses in game have an incredible amount of potential, especially import/Export.
