So what are some "bad" vehicles that could be really fun to own? I made my new character but given I don't have the mad stacks, I am looking for some solid but affordable vehicles that can fill out 16 garage spots.

My main has all the nice super cars and all that, I am looking for kind of gimmick cars or maybe the underappreciated but still fun, or really ugly kind of vehicles.

I so far got a Vader, as my first vehicle from the tutorial, and I just purchased a faggio and would like to maybe get an elegy or 9F, after saving up a bit.

edit; I was eyeing the peyote, phoenix, and blista compact, for; muscle, classic, and compact spots.

I drive my Futo more often than most of my nice cars. I highly recommend one.

Yep, that makes the change. It's basically a WRX/EVO hybrid-looking AWD rally car and been on of my faves since GTAIV.

I'd imagine this is due to Rockstar tweaking physics. Maybe he commented on that but I didn't feel like listening to another 7 minutes of his rambling.

Physics tweaking? I guess that's why cars feel so different now. I used to be able to swing around in my Zentorno like it's nothing but now I'm overshooting turns like mad.

Also, did anyone else notice that Rockstar has apparently changed the friendly lock on system? It now asks whether you want to lock on to everyone, lock on to only strangers, or to strangers if they attack you.

I just noticed this, when I was setting my spawn location, since that doesn't seem to be functioning correctly. Though part of it, seems to be these errors and dropping connection rather than outright disconnects.

So I just noticed we can have 2 properties now. Time to go shopping for another garage so I can finally get some low end cars and not have to sell fully upgraded ones for some junker.

Edit: Anyone notice that you are set to rank 1 on crews on PS4 after you transfer from another console? I know it says I am over 100 on my crew ingame but the social club says I am only rank 1.

I like having the Voltic around because it's an electric super car but the thing seems to flip and tumble at a slight nudge and even with 100% armor the front end collapses after a couple of collisions. It feels like I'm driving around a kid's toy.

I guess I'll just have to suck it up and get used to drooling at next gen stuff for two more months. I actually like that they reduced acceleration, it was just crazy fast on PS3/360. Too fast. I'm obviously not all about 100% realism in my GTA, but I like that change.

Armor helps the car take more overall damage. Be it getting shot up or crashing into other things or people.

If this has been asked already I apologise, but I was flying around the city in a fighter jet when all of a sudden I got thrown out of my plane and found myself having to open my chute.

Half a minute later my chute died, I wasn't shot at or anything, it just disappeared, and I found myself crashing to the floor below.

That's the second time I've been thrown from a plane so I'm wondering if there's a bug?

On 360 the cars were slow, then patched faster, then reverted in a later patch, then patched back up to faster again...


Sooooo, going by that methodology, they probably forgot to put the "yo cars go faster now" code from the patches into the main PS4/Bone builds cause they dumb.

It's possible Rockstar have implemented a Fun Detector. You were having too much fun so you were booted from the jet.

On my PS3, that used to happen when my controller started to go bad. I'd hit left arrow to change the radio station, or use the controller to steer and I'd jump from a moving vehicle, or take cover in the middle of shooting someone. The sensors on the inside of the controllers are very easily disturbed, and I have a two year old that likes to throw them around - we go through them a lot.

Could be that if you're on the PS3.

Yeah this is p. much the thing that made me most happy about the current gen re-release. I don't bail out of my car/helicopter/jet every time i take a left turn anymore (frick no I wasn't about to buy another terrible DS3 with the re-release so close)

If I am not mistaken, I remember having issues with the Daemon being insurable on ps3, since it was considered a gang vehicle. The Daemon is now fully insurable, if anyone cares.

I also wanted to ask, wasn't there two different BF injections, one being rusted and crappy, other clean and pristine?

You just couldn't take the ones FROM a gang attack after a certain patch. My first-ever GTAO vehicle was a Daemon that I've had ever since, and I have on on each of my 3 characters.
