Is there a "best" for any of the weapon types? I would like to optimize my weapon wheel by dumping some poo poo, but I can't tell what's good or not anymore. Also it seems my Adder and Entity are missing. Thanks Rockstar.

There's a lot of stat-identical or stat-similar guns, but these are what I consider the best:

  • Pistols: AP pistol is the best. Heavy pistol is probably the best semi-auto.
  • SMGs: Sweeper is the best, Combat SMG as a backup. Get the Micro regardless for drive-by purposes, sometimes it's useful over the AP pistol.
  • Shotguns: Assault Shotgun, but buy the sawed-off too since you can use it from a motorcycle
  • ARs: Special Carbine or Bullpup rifle (they appear to be stat-identical) - special note to the regular Carbine Rifle, which does less damage per shot but is more accurate than either.
  • MGs: Combat MG
  • Snipers: Heavy Sniper
  • heavy weapon: whatever
  • thrown: stickies :v:

Hey thanks this is like exactly what I'm looking for.

Did it suddenly happen? Do things look right in the control settings?

Because I suddenly found myself having an issue trying to throttle up and leave the ground with helicopters, minutes before the lobby crashed a bunch of us out.

No. Since I bought the game of I use the triggers I have to like really squeeze them down in order to fire. Sometimes multiple times

Is the Entity XF the best super car? Or is the zentoro better? I really like the traction of the entity.

Does the upgrades close the gap for the entity? The little stat bars claim it does.

Huh. That's kind of a bummer. Shame the entity handles so much better. It doesn't seem worth putting off my buzzard for the Zentoro.

Can the Zentoro get comparable traction? If they fix turbos isn't it the same for either car.

Yeah I dunno. Everything says the entity has a higher top speed. Also all wheel drive is pretty much the greatest. It's life being glued to the road.

It's less common to reach full speed in races than to need high acceleration. I am pretty sure the Zentorno is AWD also.

I don't think it is. And if Rockstar fixes their car poo poo, then acceleration would be the same between the two.

The Zentorno is in fact 4WD. As far as whether acceleration is more important than top speed I guess it depends on the type of race. I prefer races with more sharp corners and technical stuff and I feel like the Zentorno has upped my game to the next level from the Entity I was driving for months.

I honestly can't find anything saying Zentorno is AWD. If it is then it is then that's pretty cool, I'll take your word for it. I did some driving in the Zentorno today and it just doesn't feel like it hugs the road nearly as well. I guess really for me it's a case of I don't see enough difference to buy a Zentorno and put off my buzzard purchase when the entity seems just as competitive. It's the traction that I really like from Entitiy. Also from how things are presented it seems raising acceleration is much more common in mods then traction and top speed.

Are there any good ways to make money? Like a Playlist that I can just get on and smash out missions? I bit the bullet and got a fully upgraded Zentorno, so buzzard is next on my list.

So today I've been fighting dudes who simply don't die. Like multiple head shots with an assault rifle then I get killed instantly in the first shot. This happened with like 5 people who seem to just have way to much health. What's going on is the special and advanced rifles just bad? The combat MG didn't do poo poo either.

Is there a new LSC wheel glitch? They seemed to fix the current glitch not by fixing the "buy wheel X, get unrelated wheel Y free" but my making "wheel Y" much cheaper, so the sell value drops. Chrome offroad wheels are mostly around $5K now. Other chrome wheels are still expensive.

So does the glitch still work?

What's the consensus on the new helicopters? Are the mini guns on the huey and good? that's my only choice for killing dudes while airborne with friends right?

Edit never mind I want a valkery

how the hell do i shoot stuff? :P im getting killed by everyone in seconds, its like there is no auto-aim for me whatsoever and they all have aimbots. i guess im just out of practice. doesnt help that r2 does absolutely nothing unless i apply waaay too much force. luckily i can remap buttons now!

Your controller is broken. You can swap to the shoulder buttons in the options menu and it works pretty well. You'll always be at a disadvantage when driving.

If you've had it for less the a year Sony will repair the controller.

its only in this game though. Shooting stuff in destiny works without any issue. So idk, it might be time for a new controller anyway, the rubber sticks on this one are falling apart from my focused gamer grip

Yeah because this game uses variable control of the triggers for acceleration and stuff. Destiny is either on or off. The triggers aren't functioning properly, and Sony will fix it for free. If you had Helldivers you'd have issues there too.

You can't do burn outs or race at full speed till you fix or replace that controller.
