There’s always those players who kill you while otr or on an oppressor which is weak shit. Ok cool. Part of the game. But then they go passive or hide in a building and send trash talk your way. How unfulfilling does your life have to be that you’re this petty at a game. If you wanna kill me fine but don’t make it so I can’t come after and talk shit at the same time. Either back it up or fuck off. I’d rather just get killed on spawn repeatedly then that shit.
Any one else having issues with Rockstar resolving an issue where you arent receiving your benefits?
Ive been going back and forth with Rockstar Tech Support for past 2 months regarding not getting my weekly cash bonus for playing the game each week. They keep telling me to unlink and then relink, then change passwords, then contact Amazon, which Rockstar told me they did too and confirmed I have an Amazon Prime Account and Amazon said they sent their notification too. Now, Rockstar has pretty much given up. They have no more suggestions. So Im hoping someone out here has a good idea what the issue might be?
please? thanks
Nothing better then when I'm do nothing but minding my own business when some fucking mouth breathing knuckle dragging troglodyte comes along and blows me up for no reason. When all I'm trying to do is make money by VIP work or client jobs and some fucking 12 year old on a stupid flying bike kills me the precedes do do nothing more the spawn kill me. Seriously why the fuck do people do this.
what solution should i use every time GTA V crashes while loading story mode
So I’m playing GTA online on Xbox one and I’ve been messing around with these players letting them kill me they use methods like jets(explosive rounds) and oppressor mk2 obviously and I’ve tried ghosting and passive to get away for a second or to run I’m having fun but these kids are fuckin sweaty tryhards Jesus, they’re all pros with jets(like manoeuvres) and oppressors but they’re a different Batch I’ll tell ya ones a lvl939 another ones a lvl 75, K/D warrior with I think it was 216.16 k/d fucking hell they’re so annoying the one would do anything to avoid death, anything from passive, hiding in ghost operation, rc tanks, going in avenger to hide from orbital cannon, they even turn off ghost a minute early, I can only really escape by teleporting across the map, but sometimes it’s fun tho like they’ve gotten I wanna say ab 170 kills on me I believe, ones got 100 other about 50 and last ones go about 20-30
I’ve been playin this game for years, I remember me and my friend being idiots barely getting enough money to buy it. That was back before my parents split, back then I was lucky and had WiFi that could hold a Xbox one game. But now...I use my phones personal hotspot and can’t even play this game anymore. I get disconnected and can’t play with more then half of the community, level 155 been playing for years but now I just can’t anymore.
Wow I’ve never been blown up mid sale. Honestly I’m very impressed. Omg your level 200 I’m so surprised. Holy hell honestly I love losing out on money. You should do this more often oh Wait.
The snow in gta v sucks ass. Trying to deliver my nightclub is impossible,literally. My semi truck can’t even go up hills. How can I deliver if my stupid vehicle can’t even drive up a hill?!
Anyone else hate this too?
No I’m not bad at driving. So to any of you that would insult me,you can go f urself.
I’m an elderly gamer, new to GTA, and trying to meet a few friends to play with, so I purchased a yacht thinking it would be nice for hosting parties. I’ve been inviting several players to my yacht, where we goof around and have fun. The problem is, once we’re done... my flying motorcycle only has one seat. So, I am forced to abandon them on the yacht causing them to have to make the long swim back to shore. How do I upgrade my flying motorcycle to add an extra seat? I’m starting to feel bad for the dozen or so players I’ve stranded today. Looking for advice from an experienced player who knows how to upgrade the bike.
Now that I bought it I need another 1mil just to fucking use it, I’m done with this shit
Ok, let me first start off saying I like GTA! It’s an amazing game and Rockstar did a hell of a job on it! But this latest update is beautiful and great, but dumb in one aspect.
The exclusive GTA items that you can only pay with chips.
The items are so damn expensive. They either need to lower the price of the items or let us purchase them with GTA cash. If I want to buy everything for the items, it’s impossible by just buying them through GTA cash from the cashier (50k per 48 min). It encourages people to gamble more to get chips because there is a limit of how many chips you can buy per hour. I wish I can speak to the developers directly because this isn’t fair right now. Because the items are weekly and rotate. If you can’t buy the items you want for that week, you either have to wait till they are back or grind out getting them.
I have spent well over 800k for some items, but I did so mostly through buying the chips by the cash I had in game, waiting every hour of every day to buy them.
I know many are going to say this is what GTA wanted from people. And you are right! They did want people to gamble and lose the money, but they need to make sure the people get a fair price for the items and not tirelessly work for them every hour of every day.
For me, the problem is not the gambling, it’s the prices of the items. Some have said that the update encourages you to spend your real money so you can get those items. But you can’t. Even if you pay for all chips every hour, it’s not enough to get all the items you want for that week. It’s just that these items need to lowered in price because it’s not enough to buy all the items you want. It’s disappointing and tiresome.
And I love to gamble and waste all money if I wish. But I want to do that in freedom knowing I can get everything in the shop. I should like gambling because I don’t have to worry about an objective I have to reach. I should just enjoy it just because of the update.
Again I’m not bashing anything here, it’s just a suggestion they need to fix from the update. Hopefully others can agree with me. And I realize these are only cosmetic items, but in my opinion, they look really cool and I want all of it!
Thank you for reading!
TLDR: Rockstar need to change the prices of Casino Based Items
Okay. I'm going to explain helicopters briefly and then get onto my gripe.
A Fenestron (named after the latin word for window, fenestra) rotor is a type of tail rotor that was concieved by Airbus/Eurocopter, and is a kind of 'ducted fan' that serves as the counter-balance rotor to the main rotor of a helicopter - Tail rotors are why when you'd shoot out a tail rotor of a helo in Singleplayer, it'd go spinning out of control, and crash to the ground - the main rotor creates all this torque that the tail rotor no longer exists to counter (or in aviation terms, create anti-torque).
Anywho - I don't get why in the hell Rockstar uses the fenestron tail rotor in a lot of their helicopters in all the GTAO DLC - especially in helos that are based on real life ones that don't use the fenestron but use a conventional tail rotor, such as the Valkyrie or FH-1 Hunter (Based on the Bell UH-1 and Boeing AH-64, both of which use conventional TRs).
I understand it exists on some fictional helos like the Swift and it actually fits with the design, but the more realistically bound helos, like the Valkyrie, Hunter and Akula all have this design that doesn't fit at all with what their real life counter parts are like and it just fucking irks the shit outta me.
Is it a good car
Okay I know it's really late to talk about this but the reason I'm bringing this up is because the whole reason behind canceling the project is kind of bugging me from what I read the policy broken according to rockstar was importing something from one IP to another. I don't see why this is a big deal to them besides piracy or copyright. We've seen a lot of mods involving stuff from movies, other games, tv shows, and other things. That and I don't see why they care if it's from their own IP besides piracy because the mod required you to purchase and own a copy of the original game. What am I missing here?
I'm going to be honest GTA V is my least favorite in the series. There are something's I like about GTA V like buying stuff the combat is decent the world is big and look gorgeous. However the world feels empty there's not a lot of interesting side missions a majority of them are just strangers or random encounters. Previous GTAs had gang wars, drug dealing, vigilante work, small interactions. Even Red Dead had a reputation system hunting gambling bounties(I know gta v has them but there's only like five of them) GTA V lacks a lot of this stuff. The story felt really weak as well because there were three protagonist, having three protagonists could work and has worked in GTA IV but the major difference is that they didn't know eachother well and were having their own problems so the criminal underworld felt bigger that and the characters felt stronger. I feel like GTA V fell apart both in story and open world which is why I like modding cause you can do so much more and add things that weren't in the game before.
I'm playing GTA 5 on a PS3. Using Michael, I invested $200k in Trill after Franklin got the stock tip. It was weird though. Every stock was up 100% I logged out and back in the next day, and it said I had $0. The portfolio still showed I had $200k. I was able to sell, spent some money upgrading a car, and now I have ZERO fucking dollars. What the hell?!?
I like to RP but it's nearly impossible to do on the PS4. I chose to live in Paleto Bay, next to the beach. I love it there but there's only so much to freakin' do! This has been irking me since day 1!
Why can't we have a house like Franklin's or Michael's? It'd be nice to take a dip in my own swimming pool instead of the ocean!
Sunbathing would be nice too. NPC's can do it so why can't I have the pleasure of sunbathing on the beach or on my yacht?! Seriously!
No romance either? I admit I pick up hookers and have some fun but damn it I want to be able to 'date' someone like in IV. My avatar is a female and it'd be nice to at least hookup with other players or be able to use hush smuch (or whatever it's called).
. -Bathtubs! What purpose do they serve?! How about a bubble bath after a long day of running and gunning?
Yachts.... Nice addition I will admit BUT it's nothing more than a fancy home. Perfect place for a party but guess what?! There's no dancing or any positive social interactions!
I understand this is GTA and it's about going crazy and doing everything you can't do in the real world but that doesn't mean we can't take it easy and relax when we don't feel like attacking other players. I don't understand while they can't patch in normal actions!
I enjoy the fact we get double money and shit but how the hell am I supposed to have fun when it turns from 6v6 to 6v1????? Whoever designed this games needs to burn in fucking hell!
I hate people that hop online with 2+ friends and get in an Insurgent and start killing everyone for no fucking reason. Insurgent wont stop following you? Just shoot the driver and the gunner right right? Well that doesn't work because then his butt-buddies get out in their own vehicles and now you have 4 problems.
^^H ^^y ^^d ^^r ^^a ^^s. Thank God the Gunrunning DLC has limited the number of Hydras in the game. Before, some 12 year old would get into a Hydra and kill everyone for no reason. And then proceed to call you a faggot and say you're shit at the game for dying from a 500MPH jet with exploding bullets and missiles.
People trapping you in places. Like when you go to Suburban and while you're inside, someone blocks the doors off with their car and puts sticky bombs on your car outside. "Just kill yourself and respawn outside?" Yeah but it's an inconvenience to have to respawn a few blocks down with no car anymore.
12 year olds that pull up in the most expensive cars in the game with chrome resprays and dollar sign wheels and pit-maneuver your car and then either kill you or throw sticky bombs on your car.
Hackers. Not the good hackers that give you GTA$. But the ones that teleport the whole server into one spot and kill everyone at the same time. Or the ones who flat out crash your game for no reason. I had a guy that really hated me because my friend kept killing him, and I got into a lobby with him by chance 3 different times and every time he crashed my game.
Anyways, thanks for reading.
Every. Single. Fucking. Lobby.
In the midst of my boredom on GTAO, I figured I'd just look around and take in the scenery of Sandy Shores since my "apartment" is there. While looking around "my apartment" I noticed some stickies on the fridge, one saying "Yoga canceled Monday". Finally I looked at the bookshelf and a few books are about yoga. I wouldn't have a problem with this IF yoga was actually in online. I know most people hate yoga in SP (personally, I don't see Michael ever doing it) but why not feature it in online mode?
I have a lot to piss and moan a out- mostly about the lack of activities to do in MP. IMHO GTAO is just an incomplete beta that just happened to blow up. The DLC adds content but no depth.
To start off with, I know of the Heist finder group and I actually have a decent group of friends to do quality heist runs with. This isn't about that at all. I'm a fairly high level and a long time player (2013). I've been joining randoms in heist setups and finales just to help out. If a player mentions they're hurting for money I will ask the leader to give me a smaller cut to give them a larger cut. I'm not rolling in money but I have plenty of toys and properties. Playing the game is'nt about money with me (ask me that again when new toys come out). Right now I'm at that point where I just wanna have fun and not care about the green.
Back to the matter at hand. So I join randoms and help them out. More times out of ten these are run by people who know heists. Player saved outfits and hard mode. They know all the tricks for a fast run with the most payout. Often the fellow crew members are like this as well but some of them aren't. These are the randoms I normally end up adding as friends to just play around with in the future or perhaps help once again.
Then you have the other randoms... The randoms that don't communicate when you reach out to them. The randoms that don't listen to your advice or even get salty if you say anything. The randoms where you fail a setup time and time again. How many times can you fail freaking Vans? Come on, now.
I know this is a long winded post, I tend to have projectile word vomit when it's the middle of the night. I have two stories that I'm here to tell...
The first story is the night when I wanted to log off at 2am my time and ended up being up until almost 5am trying to finish a Pac Standard. The first few setups with this random group went pretty well. One to zero failures or deaths. Once we hit convoy the toilet pudding hit the fan. Members running up on the convoy in tank tops and shorts on their bikes. Members driving the gunner truck into the water. Members throwing stickies near the truck and effectively destroying it. I try to give advice. Gunner truck stay with the truck. Take out the choppers. Don't speed if you aren't a comfortable driver. As long as the gunner truck stays with the truck and takes out the enemies you'll be okay. I ended up on convoy for an HOUR. Then there was bikes. Four deaths. At this point I wonder why I'm still sticking with this group of randoms. I'm either a sucker for punishment or too nice. The finale. That took over an hour. Only after the fifth death and starting over from scratch did the leader put player saved outfits. I urge them to let me make the run alone. While it's player saved outfits only two of us had heist gear and all three other players were all under level 50. The leader finally speaks up and tells the other two to wait in the bank. I make the run, I'm halfway to the bikes when they get impatient and rush out only to be killed before the second checkpoint. I try again and we get on the bikes and make a dash for it. One ends up speeding face first into a car and being killed by cops. We do a complete restart once again and get as far as the jump. Three of us make our leaps. The fourth decides to jump and free fall before deploying. This isn't Humane or Prison where you have a nice safe empty space to fall for a long time before deploying. This is a narrow area with lots of trees and cliffs. Guess what happens? Yep, that's right, he ends up deploying but he's going so fast and slams into a tree. It was at this point that I didn't rage quit but the leader did. I never did get a re-invite...but even if I'm a sucker I more than likely would have declined at that point. I went to bed feeling frustrated and rather amused at myself for sticking it out that long.
My other story is much quicker. Prison finale. Prison team took absolutely forever. Prisoner blamed his lack of ammo and health. I kindly remind them that you can pick up ammo and carry armor and snacks to help. I receive bitter salt in reply. Of course the prisoner dies twice. The demo is also pretty worthless but I know how to dodge the jets as the pilot. I just fly behind them all the time. Sadly I had a sneaking suspicion of what could happen with this guy as demo.... And of course it happened. We finally beat it and we all jump out of the plane. The three of us land safely in the water and wait out of the path of whirling blades of death. We see the chopper descending. All was well...until the chopper lands in the water and fails.... This was literally the day after the evil Pac Standard failure so at that point I rage quit and got a full night's sleep.
I still help randoms.
Sorry for the long wall o'text :)
Holding touch screen/options button doesn't work..
They don't fucking work but they love to jack off instead of play the game, sometimes even jump out of the valkyrie just to die.
What the actual fuck.
Seriously, this fucking game is rated +18, the characters says bad words and I cannot fucking ragestorm bad words at players? Cannot even say wtf.
