The B*tch & Moan Thread (Part 4)

[TheFroggmann]

Yep, quality fargin' programming there R*. I LOVE being blown up for no reason!

 

This was on XB1SX so no chance of a modder, just my unfortunate luck of being loaded into the wrong interior and detonated.

Remember the glitch to summon a Personal Aircraft while summoning a CEO vehicle that they fixed?

 

I do, I used my Akula alot when it worked. That's what I am talking about, something like that.

Another B&M from me: why tf is not the new heli popping up in the CEO menu?

 

It should have had a Missile Jammer as standard as well. A civilian helicopter that can't be locked on to is what people have been asking for.

That poor helicopter got instantly irrelevant. It's not doing well even in the 'Vehicle' thread section too. 

 

Although its cosplay value and original design are nice, it's hard to empty a place for it in our packed hangars.

It should have had a Stealth Mode OR a Missile Jammer as "Weapons" if they didn't give you the Imani Missile Jammer as standard. While retaining the ability to go Passive.

They limited 50 year old rifle to an event that has higher chance of spawning in public cesspool so players and other degens would fight for its scraps possibly for hours depending on rng, business battle events all over again only this time you have to waste hours searching on dozen of possible locations and it might not even spawn at all. Bravo R*. 

Well at least potheads are gonna get their cap and shirt after hours of collecting packages. 

Good thing i'm not gonna spend anything this week since sh*toso is the only car i'm not gonna be purchasing from this dlc. Rarely anybody wanted that trash but R* likes their niche vehicles.

Brioso is actually unique and not some generic BS like the corsita

[Lupo-Akane]

Been running around for 2hrs and no rifle pop ups to find a piece....

R* just can't do anything simple, oh no they have to go all into being braindead why can't it just be in one part of the flipping map.

[gtadrive]

PS5 version is a joke, 60fps could have been achieved with silent patch of PS4 version, meanwhile everything else in the game I see as a downgrade.
Raytracing - this is nothing but shadows, the one that could and have been done by nvidia long before all this without raytracing.
Particle effects - car window leaving glass shards that keep rolling on flat surfaces (bad quality), the shards itself make no sense as windows were made the way they could not break into shards which could damage drivers eyes during impact. Gun muzzle flash is no longer a flash but guns resemble now a flamethrower. Fire brightness is out of control, during a daytime fire should not emit so much light. Smoke textures looks good on itself, but it is still 2001 type of particle emitting method and the fact that these sprite sheets were produced as camera oriented billboard within small depth makes my eyes bleed.

Really no interest of updating as the new version just sucks even more in terms of esthetics.

God this GTA sh*t is really sad these days.

Okay, okay! I get it! I am now registered as a CEO. Now f*ck off of my screen!

I still hate that they changed the pop up notifications like this to ones that take up the entire screen and you can't see sh*t past them. They weren't always this bad, what were they thinking?

[Snakeywakey389]

God these crime scenes are annoying. I got the first two within 30 minutes of making a new lobby and then the third, I get it within 30 as well but I get kicked to the main menu and now, I tried for an hour in one session and nothing. Why must this be so god damn complicated?

[YNNEL]

I’ve gave up trying to get the M16. At it for hours and it hasn’t spawned once. Just let me but the stupid thing for god sake.

[Erased]

Anybody having issues with finding all of the Lamar Organics packages? I wanna say I have about 45-50 already and I know there are spots where I haven’t been yet and they aren’t there on @GTASeries.com video (what I’ve been using because they are so good at doing these guides so fast). It’s really pissing me off

[DuhBritishTea]

R*'s 'love affair' with RNG events really irritates me. Ah yes force players to go around in circles HOPING you get good RNG. F*ck off with that artificial game lengthening bs and either put GUARANTEED spawns at one of the locations or just let me buy it outright.

[Kremita]

The M-16 egg hunt has to be one of the dumbest idea R* has ever come up with…

[EkaSwede]

These damn crime scenes outright REFUSES to show up. It's been 30+ minutes and I'm checking all of the 10 damned spots.

I hit about 1 in 5 sessions overall, after getting 10 parts for 2 characters.

 

LSIA hangar spawn, docks, casino, eclipse, simeon, pier, chumash, sandy shores, Barney, grapeseed, Paleto, change session

 

If you join a session with low user count change, because you don't know how old it is.

I got the first one in Paleto Bay. No luck with anymore. Thought I’d got the second one in Paleto Bay but turns out it was the last movie prop I’d be trying to find for about a year so lool

Does this work for Invite Only? I've gotten 2 parts the other day and recently it just refuses to create anymore crime scenes.

I followed their video yesterday and got them all in about an hour with no issues.

What, doesn't it take you 15 minutes to read 5 words? 

[OG Fringe]

And there was me thinking this whole thing was an elaborate troll or someone accidentally posted the April fool's pank eight months early!

No it's not locked. You can get all parts in IO session.

It’s just not clear why someone finds these criminal scenes immediately, within two hours, while the others searches for days and does not find it.

[Gaffa]

So today's two hour session, I found... 

- 2x skeletons with 2x of the same map for Cayo
- 2x Cayo Guards

- 1x Smuggler Plane thing
- 1x Drug Vehicle

- 0x weapon parts / crime scenes

- 0x Exotic Export vehicles

 

You know Rockstar, if you want people to play the game, the least you guys can do is ensure stuff works. 
Whilst I'm here...

- Why no "person" blip for skeletons or guards? 
- Why no "vehicle" blip for Drug Vehicles and Exotic Export stuff?
Nope, much easier to put THE SAME BLUE DOT for EVERY SINGLE EVENT. Useless. 

[Lupo-Akane]

Finally got the damn rifle...............

They did a good job on it, it looks like an m16 style rifle, sounds flipping nice, and has good dmg and accuracy for a rifle in 5.56 like you would expect.

But the time it takes for it is not worth it....

Yesterday it took 3hrs and 45mins to get 3 parts and in that time I got

2 smuggler flares (was my first time getting them).

1 smuggler plane (first time getting one as well).

7 guards.

3 drug cars.

Today I started at 10am and finally got the last part at 1:45pm.....

3 smuggler flares.

1 smuggler plane.

5 guards.

7 drug cars.

A flipping gun that every swigging dick has wanted since the game came out has finally been put in the game and locked behide a drip feed and then when it does  happen to show up its locked behide a stupid ass RnG sh*t thing. 

[Gaffa]

Sorry I have to mention this one... incredible to think this is how the game was designed... 

- You don't have the ability to join an Invite Only session from the main menu, so despite good load times, you're required to visit the cesspool of Public Lobbies before moving out. 
You can, however, join any session type from the Rockstar Creator - go figure with that logic and why they can't just put "the usual menu" in the game when you press pause after loading up to the main front page of the game before joining online eludes me. 
- When you do join an Invite Only session (or other session type), if for whatever reason you idle out of the session due to AFK, your internet goes down, or you enter or leave a mission or <something happens>, then when you click to find a new session, the game doesn't match the previous session type you were in, it just puts you in a Public Session. 
- Being in Invite Only or Close Friend sessions and inviting your friends to heist with you is great, but often leads to you being in different sessions from one another once a setup mission or heist finale has been completed.

Sigh, I need a breather from this game clearly. 

[Spider-Vice]

If you own Story Mode (only applicable to current-gen) you can just use that to go into an Invite Only session, otherwise there are indeed a few design flaws in the GTA Online Standalone version like that yeah... The lack of the Editor (as it needs Story Mode access) is also disappointing, and their reasoning is very odd considering you still download all of the assets.

 

It's not like you'd be experiencing the Story Mode features with Editor access.

What's worse is that you have to spend 30 minutes in the session before they begin to spawn in one of the locations. I don't know who over there at Rockstar is coming up with these ideas. Also, why is it that once I'm trying to search for the crime scenes, exotic exports vehicles start spawning all over the place?
