[QUOTE=Shalaska;47667069]Gotta ask, what's the point of the Marksman's Rifle? It seems like a straight downgrade from the sniper rifles, used to be useful on consoles because you couldn't move while aiming with the other rifles, but on PC you can, meaning its one advantage is gone.[/QUOTE]
About the same damage as a sniper, with faster refire and significantly larger magazine.

It fires much faster than a sniper and doesn't lose as much accuracy from rapid fire as a scoped assault rifle.
It's intended to be used at a range that the assault weapons are unreliable but the snipers are still a risky choice due to long reload.

Also it kicks ass in survival since it one-shots from any hit, fires so rapidly and has so many rounds in the magazine.
I've been told it's the best thing to use for survival until you get the grenade launcher and minigun.
Trying to type using the message system in the game keeps activating the fucking other commands in pause IE I DON'T WANT TO BUY AMMO R* I WANT TO TYPE SHIT IN CHAT.
I think this might be the last R* game I buy for wrong reasons.

I've had the sniper rifle for a while and have gone back to using the marksman rifle. That thing's rate of fire is straight up fucking deadly. If you're within 200 meters of somebody's car you can kill every occupant in a matter of seconds because of it's damage, accuracy and rate of fire.
Sniper rifle is good for extremely long range fire, but marksman rifle all the way if you're only at "long" distance.
If you're a block away from someone on a roof sniping, and they haven't seen you yet, you can swiss cheese them with four or five shots before they even know what's going on.
It and the heavy shotgun are my favorite weapons. Efficient mid-long range countersniper and hyper-powerful mid-close range cannon.
What I hate about the sniper is that the game can't save the last zoom I had when I fired. I have to annoyingly keep scrolling and scrolling after few shots. It's really tedious, I'd rather just buy a scope which has a set zoom (if such option was available).

turntable editor is based off cheatengine iirc. you are editing memory with it.
Nobody wanna come heist? We've been sitting here in the lobby for a good few minutes waiting for someone who isn't a level <15 to join the lobby but it's not looking too good.
I don't like to use the in game messaging system, because I feel like Rockstar is reading them all :tinfoil:

I wish you could just remove the scope for the sniper rifle and marksman rifle.

It's ok, R* doesn't listen to their customers.

I've for like a long time wanted a powerful semi-auto rifle, or some kind of Battle rifle in GTA:O, would be a nicer bridge than the Marksman's rifle is.
I'm really happy, it might not cost much to some of you guys but it felt like a fortune for me.
I got my mobile sniping platform today

BTW I'm testing to see if I get banned for using mods while offline in Social Club.
I first used the launch option "-scOfflineOnly" to disable online, then I modded the game, cheated in SP, then saved, removed the mods, then reenabled online.
IF this works, then this will be the way to use mods in GTA5 without having to crack another copy of the game or do other wacky BS.

We're missing one spot for the setups. Nobody wanna come fill it?

I dig ur plates.
Shame that the most interesting visual mods for the Futo are level 36 at least, IIRC.
Level limited cosmetic mods are dumb, they should just cost more the lower level you are.

what would be the point in levelling then
just keep doing missions and you rank up in no time
So on my continued adventure to launch the game I got R* to reply again on twitter in hope of customer support showing its existence.
Six days after the first reply they give me this exact same reply and I just hope something happens this time.

[b]Edit:[/b]
I want to bring R* customer support into the light of the public but I'm not sure how to do that. I couldn't be more disappointed with this release, probably the worst game I've ever not played since my conception.

"In no time"
More than a little inaccurate, also that's not my point. Why must my car be boring until I spend X number of hours/days grinding?

I'd happily pay 50k+ for the drift bumpers and retro racer kit on the Futo, [I]just give them to me.

The point of leveling would be the ability to trick out more than one or two cars without totally breaking the bank, which I'd be fine with. Early on you have to focus on what you like and make the most of it, and later you can spread out more and experiment. That's called progression, which is more fun and involved than arbitrary limitation.
I just got done playing with some FAPS peeps. When I hopped into the session I found them all trying to get their cars on a train so I decided to try too

After my success someones car glitched out of the train and was being dragged alongside it, bumping into stuff and being thrown about while still moving with the train. At one point it started doing some sick grinds on a bridge we passed

Good times.
Why have leveling at all. Why does free-roam, open-world, do-anything, largely non-persistent game need a leveling system to begin with. Earning the persistent aspects is already handled through earning money.
were you not supposed to lose all your vehicles when you transferred from 360 to PC?
if not can i get money from their support?

Mostly so newbies won't have access to some of the really punishing missions, which could scare them off if they weren't aware they were doing them too early.
Also, while it isn't actively used for such, the level system COULD be used as a way to match players of similar aptitude together in both missions and freeroam, rather than dumping level 10> players in with 100+ ones all the time.

If you haven't logged onto your character on 360/PS3 (not sure if it applies to next gen also) for a long long time and then transfer to PC you lose your vehicles.
The only way to prevent it is to log on and play with your character on 360/PS3 till it makes a recent character cloud save to transfer from.
Your vehicles are gone forever but if you send in a support ticket they will most likely reimburse you with a nice sum of money.
Leveling and making money could go a bit faster in my opinion.
