Grand Theft Auto Grieving Thread - Yep, I've been drinkin' again...

[Korpon]

Did you never do the ambulance or taxi missions?

Fuck this just gave me a PTSD flashback to being on the last level of the ambulance mission in 3 when some fucking granny I was trying to pick up threw her geriatric body under the wheels of the ambulance and failed the mission, I mag dumped that bitch with the M16 multiple times. I don't remember VC or SA having peds do shit like that (often*, sometimes they'd bug out a bit) so why the hell Rockstar decided to add it into V with the cars baffles me.

I swear it was added in an update for Online to make it more difficult for Import/Export activities.

I can see the point of that sorta of thing if you were in a police chase, make it a bit more interesting, but it happening in normal gameplay is pretty cringe.

It absolutely is, especially when you're trying to haul a carcass into town for sale, the pedestrian leaps in front of you and you and it both go flying off your horse, and naturally he's dead and the cops are showing up out of thin air to start aimbotting you.

I cannot believe that R* would copyright San Andreas' The Introduction film even when used in fair use. How greedy.

GTA Online is adding a web-based license plate creator and adjusting prices for weaponized vehicles.

Firstly, we will be updating prices for several current vehicles in GTA Online on April 27 to better reflect their value to players. Certain vehicles will see their cost adjusted down to make them more accessible — including some with fun and unique features and counter-attacking capabilities — like the Imponte Ruiner 2000 and Ocelot Stromberg. Conversely, some vehicles with outsized utility, performance, or powerful weaponry will see their prices increased — such as the Pegassi Oppressor Mk II. Check out the full list of vehicle pricing adjustments below and stay tuned as we will continue re-evaluating vehicle pricing as we move forward.

Brute Armored Boxville: GTA$2,926,000 / GTA$1,300,000

Buckingham Akula: GTA$3,704,050 / GTA$4,500,000

Declasse Granger 3600LX: GTA$1,380,000 / GTA$2,000,000

Declasse Scramjet: GTA$3,480,000 / GTA$4,000,000

Dewbauchee Champion: GTA$2,995,000 / GTA$3,750,000

HVY Chernobog: GTA$3,311,700 / GTA$1,500,000

Imponte Deluxo: GTA$4,721,500 / GTA$5,750,000

Imponte Ruiner 2000: GTA$5,745,600 / GTA$3,750,000

Mammoth Thruster: GTA$3,657,500 / GTA$2,500,000

Mammoth Tula: GTA$5,173,700 / GTA$4,100,000

Ocelot Stromberg: GTA$3,185,350 / GTA$2,500,000

Pegassi Oppressor: GTA$3,524,500 / GTA$2,750,000

Pegassi Oppressor Mk II: GTA$3,890,250 / GTA$8,000,000

Pegassi Toreador: GTA$3,660,000 / GTA$4,250,000

Pegassi Weaponized Ignus: GTA$3,245,000 / GTA$4,500,000

RM-10 Bombushka: GTA$5,918,500 / GTA$4,750,000

All this will do is increase Zelnick's shark cards profits. This won't stop griefing as they'd already HAVE it before the price increase.

I find Packie and Gerry the most honest of the McCreary family.

They're not. Packie is a petty thug who chooses to be a criminal chasing a romanticized "glory days" era when his last name meant something.
Gerry was an ideologue who encounters the same crisis all ideologues do when they realize their beliefs were a manufactured lie.
They have no qualms being ruthless to achieve their goals, and despite showing "remorse", they repeat the same vicious actions over and over.

They're no better than Francis in that regard; the McCreary brothers all lie to themselves that their ends justify their means.
Francis thinks it's ok to be crooked if it can cover up his criminal ties and make him into a town hero. He chases acclaim from a fake society.
Packie thinks it's ok to be a criminal because he feels things he was denied his place in the criminal underworld and he's only directly harming other criminals. He chases acclaim from a corrupt society.
Gerry thinks it's ok to be a psycho if his actions can have short-term benefits or validate his ideals. He chases acclaim from himself.

Are Packie and Gerry the types you can open a pisswasser with and have a good time? Probably.
Honest?... lolno. No one in that cursed family is honest except perhaps Ma.

Apologies if this good news is late, but Take-Two just dropped its lawsuit with some modders who were making their own remaster. (Archive)

Granted, legal fees are certainly a bitch, but those modders can probably breathe easy.

And unlike in GTA5 where its a car crash in RDR2 you typically wind up with a dead pedestrian and you wanted for murder.

It absolutely is, especially when you're trying to haul a carcass into town for sale, the pedestrian leaps in front of you and you and it both go flying off your horse, and naturally he's dead and the cops are showing up out of thin air to start aimbotting you.

This is actually why they think you did it. It's an oversight in the game's code.

To determine whether, or not you committed the crime, the game checks a bunch of factors. Most importantly, where you are, if someone saw you, if you have blood on you, and if you have a weapon out.

However, the game doesn't check if the blood is actually from the pedestrian, and if the weapon was actually used on them. Meaning, if you have blood from hunting on you, or say, picked up a bloody carcass to put back on your horse after it fell off after crashing into someone, and the weapon you used for said hunting is still out, the game thinks you committed the crime even if you didn't.

And if you have no blood on your and run someone down with a horse?

 

[Bunny Tracks]

And if you have no blood on you and run someone down with a horse?

It depends on where you are, if there's someone around to discover the body, and how you react to them.

If you do that in the middle of town with a bunch of witnesses, yeah, they're gonna think you did it. But if you do that in the middle of bumfuck nowhere, and someone just stumbles across the body, either just stay away, or if they see you, peacefully defuse the situation (ie; don't antagonize, have a weapon out, or be covered in blood), and they'll usually just move along, and let you go.

I say "usually", because WANTED system can still just bug out, but most of the time if you do this, you'll be fine.

I mean, the issue here isn't the crime system, its that the game deliberately sends someone into your path on a collision course because reasons, just like as was pointed out in that GTAV video.

Oh yeah, I'm not arguing with that. The game definitely does shit like that. I was just explaining why the game sometimes automatically thinks you've killed someone even though you haven't.

 

[xXx: State of the Union]

lmfao I can't believe they decided to double the price of the Oppressor MK II 5 years after release and after they nerfed it. What the fuck does this accomplish at this point?

Raising any prices at this point is asinine. They should be lowering prices if anything.

 

[T-21]

What the fuck does this accomplish at this point?

Absolutetly nothing except towards players who are genuinely braindead to create private sessions to grind and avoid griefers or cheaters. Thank fuck I bought one already. Then again, the price hike shouldn't be a problem for cheaters and glitch abusers.

That's what I like about IV's characters. They're three dimensional and open for interpretation. Perhaps that's the lesson with the McCreary's, they're a fucked up family that is in denial of their wrongdoings. They've accepted being dregs in society, which their Ma cannot do anything about.

I'm between that Francis and Derrick are the worse of the two. It's quite fitting that they'd both turn against each other. Francis is a gangster trying to be a cop; Derrick is a snake that turned on his comrades. It could be argued that Derrick was the reason that Gerry went inside.

Professional made a video about this some time ago, while there's no conclusive evidence, there's a lot of signs and hints right there

For all the crook and corruption in Francis, one thing you can say about him is that the people he gets you to kill are truly scum (maybe except for that lawyer) and in the long run, the world is better off with him alive instead of Derrick

Not only this sad fuck ruined anyone's fun in game, but also attacked a child in real life. What's with trannies always attacking women or children? Every. Single. Fucking. Time.

 

[StacticShock]

Apologies if this good news is late, but Take-Two just dropped its lawsuit with some modders who were making their own remaster

they saw it was cheaper to find another way than to sue them plus the goodguy points they'll get from the community is handy when shilling another shitty demake or even gta6, you can betcha that many folx in preddit and gtaforums are lauding them for a "good decision at least once".

Not only this sad fuck ruined anyone's fun in game, but also attacked a child in real life. What's with trannies always attacking women or children? Every. Single. Fucking. Time.

you ask this while being on the farms? come on nigger, they're psychotic due to hormonal imbalance, also previously being a psycho too but ehh i wanted to make a tranny joke.
