Slim Killington posted:Attack from rooftops, or in the subway. I only just recently realized that the escape tunnel from the jewelry heist is a real persistent thing that is still there after the mission. That would be absolutely amazing for luring a mad pubbie into provided they didn't get bored a few minutes after losing direct sight of you. It's a huge, winding path and there are ladders you can climb up to defensible overhead positions.

AgentJR posted:I would still prefer the APB method where missions took place in the same instance as free-roam, so you could see people battling or chasing each other while just milling around or even in your own mission. That'd be cool, the problem would be syncing up the NPCs across all players, and keeping other players from killing them. Imagine you're on a mission to kill some guys to take their meth, and a busload of chucklefucks comes up and kills them, and then kills you. Or if you make the NPCs invincible, and the people on a mission impervious to outsider bullets, then they'd still drive up in that bus only they'd just dick around shooting wildly all over the place and smashing cars into the mission cars, blocking your exits, etc. The other thing would be that you'd have to make it so that you can only do a single mission at a time. You can't have another team trying to do the same poo poo as another team, they can't both meet their contacts at the same time, kill the same people and steal the same bags of meth. Or imagine the logistics nightmare of a street race overlapping a heist. Guys are in their getaway cars, they're almost home free but then five sports cars plow into them and everybody is in a big heap in the middle of the intersection. While that sounds pretty awesome in theory, in practice it'd be really annoying.

Of all the things to get banned for, I'd think Rockstar would probably care the most about people unlocking loyalty DLC that they shouldn't have. Especially if they decide to sell it later on.

The place I found it was next to the taco place where Trevor likes to eat trashcan tacos.

I wonder if the armored Kuruma babbies would stop loving around with Kurumas if everybody else just went into passive or did jobs straight from the phone. Probably not, they'd probably keep prowling and patrolling around just in case other people want to have fun in Free Roam. Gotta get that YouTube footage somewhere.

That's the lame part, if it prevented you from shooting out of it it'd solve a lot of people's complaints about it (that it trivializes missions, that people do drive-bys with it in freeroam, etc.). Just make it impossible to shoot from, completely disable all weapons while you're inside it, then it's just a getaway and running-people-over car. e: I guess the comedy option is that if you fire your gun inside it it kills you instantly (from the "ricochet").

FallinInTheBlak posted:Probably, I get messages and in-game texts all the time, a lot of people also stop and honk their horn for me to get into their car. I even get invited to party chat and they're, for some reason, really shocked when they find out I am in fact not a girl that they kick me on occasion, so now I usually sit in silence to hear what they say. This is why I use my SA name, most people wouldn't assume a girl would name herself "King" anything. And yet my character is the most fashion-conscious girly-girl you ever saw. I don't know, I don't spend too much time playing with pubs anymore so maybe my experience is different but even when I see other female characters they don't seem to get any different treatment. I figured most people playing GTAO assume that any female character you see is actually a dude. Whole servers would melt down if a woman so much as uttered a word over voice chat.

He came out, spawned ahead of the mines but I was ready with the launcher and blew the poo poo out of his van. Then I went passive... feels good, man.

Do we really need to clarify that they're not "hackers" they're just jackasses using the Endeavor mod online? There's literally no skill involved with what they're doing, they just downloaded a trainer and have found a way to use it online (or maybe it works online automatically, I don't know because I'd never do it). That aside, Endeavor is a pretty awesome mod when you're just dicking around in single-player.

I wonder if hackers could randomly add data to people's GTA Online saves that appear to be evidence of hacking. I don't mean deliberately, just as a side-effect of spamming random commands in the trainer. Like "give this person Forbidden Item X in their inventory or wardrobe and then Rockstar scans for it and they get flagged". Because I don't think it's anything to do with money if you spend all of it. Unless maybe they also have records of money spent.

I never really played much with pubbies in freeroam and now I never will unless I get confirmation that at least most of the hackers have been wiped out. It'd be one thing if they just hosed with people but if they actively prevent you from playing, or find ways to get your account flagged for a banning then it's not worth messing with.

They put silly poo poo in the game, in singleplayer, and then they don't really let you use much of the silly poo poo or do anything except look at it. Unless it's in "Director Mode" then you can pick silly models if you want and dick around. It's like they have this idea in their heads of what the game "should" be and they don't want people messing around with their Pure Vision of GTA V. In online, you can be Generic Criminal Guy or Gal and dress to the nines in high fashion and drive fancy (but not silly) cars. Maybe the next Saints Row reboot will have a massively-multiplayer online component.

I said come in! posted:I have 741 bounties placed on me and I don't understand why. I never do anything but hangout in my apartment and do races solo. People are dicks, basically. There are people just waiting for people to join servers so they can immediately put bounties on them when the "X has joined server" text pops up. Bounties prevent you from going into passive mode, and you're not in passive mode by default when you enter a server. It's just a way to grief more effectively, they probably have macros or something that just auto-bounty with a button press.

It may be separate from GTAV but it's not a "separate game", it uses every asset from GTA V except for the added mission scripts and some new animations and voice acting for cutscenes. It's basically a free expansion, they can call it "a standalone game" all they want but it's basically a mod.

We (or I) really need more non-instanced free roam missions, like blowing up armored cars or smuggling planes, but something a little more involved. Something like how APB does, where you see people driving like mad to a location to do an objective against another team and you can even go and observe them but you can't kill them, blow up their cars or gently caress with them beyond sort of pushing their vehicles around a little bit or blocking their entries/exits. To make it less "complicated" they could even have it not involve NPCs at all, just "go to a location and set a tracking device, break into a place and steal some poo poo, etc". Instanced missions are fine, but it'd be cool to have a server full of people you know and the people they know, and people could do free roam poo poo together, break off into teams to do missions in free roam, or whatever. The way they have it set up now there's barely any real reason to stick around in free roam unless you're just looking to steal an inexpensive car to dote up in a garage. Also yes, it wouldn't really work out in a public server since hackers could still gently caress with you no matter how they try to gate you behind some kind of "passive in-mission mode".
