Grand Theft Auto Series Megathread V12 - GTA Online: We Have a Hacking Problem

Since there seems to be a Cuban 800 inside the hangar property in one of the screenshots, I'm guessing custom variants will probably be a thing. However, I don't actually expect the upgrade to custom to be expensive. I believe that they'll probably use the research system again and that is where you'll potentially sink over ten million in trying to get everything like Gunrunning.

I also doubt that anything that actually needs an upgrade will get it. You can probably expect a lot of things to still be shit after this update.
pffffffffft, rockstar making you spend millions to have an equal chance?
unthunkable
[QUOTE]COMING THIS FALL: TRANSFORM RACES SEAMLESSLY TAKE YOU ACROSS ROADS, SKIES AND SEAS
Stunt racing in GTA Online had you flipping and carving your way across enormous corkscrews and loops and other crazy tracks, while Special Vehicle Circuit Races harnessed the power and unique characteristics of the Rocket Voltic, Ruiner 2000 and the Blazer Aqua for adrenaline pumping challenges.
Now, racing in GTA Online will once again be transformed with intricate circuits that demand mastery across air, sea and land vehicles.
New and strategically placed checkpoints will instantly change your vehicle class to match the portion of the course ahead, creating dynamic racing with ever shifting challenges to take the checkered flag…

Hey that's neat, hopefully the racetracks are decent enough for this
I just noticed that if you've upgraded your pistol to the Mk 2 version, your character won't shoot themself in the head to commit suicide. they just take the cyanide pill. Kinda sucks that the animation is tied to that specific gun model.

The Rockstar created ones will probably be 90% trash, but as long as they give players the option to create their own, you could end up seeing some interesting stuff.

Had enough of supers in GTAO? Too bad:

Grotti Visione, "one of the new Super class cars"(might imply that there is more than one).
They also put out this old screenshot while explaining that you can upgrade aircraft with stuff such as engine upgrades and cluster bombs:

Some people were talking about a Facebook post from Rockstar that mentions JATO(I'm a retard and put JTOL here before, sorry) as an upgrade for certain aircraft, but I don't have Facebook so I don't know about that.

I was running a small bit of an experiment that involved a Schafter LWB with armor, and low level players. The plan is simple. Approach said low level player in the LWB, and watch what they do. The bulletproof glass oftentimes lasting quite a while as they fail to possess any hard hitting weapons.
My third attempt lead to quite a long string of events. Said low level, a level 27 shot me twice with a compact grenade launcher. I shot him with a Heavy Sniper and asked if he was done killing me. Sure enough he wasn't, and took aim. He died again, and asked for a 1v1 that went as smoothly as it could when fighting someone 100 levels below yourself. Then someone drove up with an Insurgent Pickup, tapping the horn. I hopped in the gunner seat and we went off. Managed to snipe him a few times with the MG and then he left. Said someone in the Insurgent invited me to a party, and I was quite confused when the very person we were hunting left the party right as I joined.
We played some custom LTS matches mostly made by him, ranging from bumper cars to RPGs vs cars and a deathrun gamemode. Along with five other of his friends. Including the very person we hunted and killed.
I've been noticing that I've been getting a 1 star wanted level for no reason at all: Hovering over Mount Chiliad in a helicopter, or even just standing there, and then wanted level. I don't even know why and how it happens, I just hope they fix it in the next update

That's me in a nutshell, only I'm just casually speeding without hitting or killing anyone, have yourself a chuckle and think the reason you got it is because you violated traffic/air laws.

Stop loitering, criminal scum!
IIRC
NPCs have a weird feature where sometimes they get pissed off at you and call the police, it's very common in Single Player but happens in Online too.
They pretty much see you approach and say "Fuck it, I'm calling the police" and similar stuff.

in the trailer for Smuggler's Run, Ron says something like "we've got more crates than we can deliver"
yeah fuckin right. more like "we've got one crate to deliver per 5 supply runs"
Another image posted by R*, expect a few more today(will update this post with them):

Sadly, it's another helicopter.

This post is wrong, the Havok is the new version of the Little Willie from VCS. This seems to just be a red Buzzard.

Still gonna paint it gold though, it looks very similar to the buzzard anyway.
[QUOTE=CheezMan;52622224]Still gonna paint it gold though, it looks very similar to the buzzard anyway.[/QUOTE]
It looks unarmed, so it may well be a Buzzard with less combat ability, and more mobility, hence the 'nimble' in the caption. However, sometimes Rockstar describes a vehicle one way, and then it doesn't have those traits.
I would kill for a faster and more maneauverable Buzzard with some custom options (rocket jammer and flares please), that you can summon for free through the CEO menu. I very much doubt they'll give us a more convenient way to traverse the map when running CEO stuff.
isn't there already an unarmed buzzard in the game? pretty sure you get it in single player & for some delivery missions online
[QUOTE=IAreLegend;52623363]isn't there already an unarmed buzzard in the game? pretty sure you get it in single player & for some delivery missions online[/QUOTE]
I honestly couldn't tell you if it's in Online for sure. I haven't flown one that I can remember, mission or not.
Basically I'd be happy with any faster and nimbler heli that can be spawned instantly like the current Buzzard. Being unarmed but having the ability to evade and deny homing attacks is a great tradeoff for being able to retaliate, as many busy CEOs prefer to avoid violence rather than instigate it. There are plenty of vehicles that excel at firepower, now we need some that excel at avoiding said firepower, to give both attackers and dodgers a bit of a challenge and change the dynamics of freemode.

an MC road captain can spawn an unarmed buzzard for $1000

GTA V's wanted system has never made any sense to me. Sometimes I can gun down an npc and steal their car in the middle of a busy street without getting wanted, but if I kick my own car a couple times way out in the desert I'll have a cop sticking his shotgun up my ass before I can even blink.
It's such a shame how big of a step down it is from RDR's wanted system, where you could get away with crime as long as you got rid of any witnesses.
I think it's kind of interesting how the gunrunning and smuggler's run trailers both have almost 10 million views each, considering pretty much all the other update trailers have around 3-7 mil.
They have the most interesting content. And the most expensive by miles. I literally have no patience for this grind. I need a fucking trainer.

you can bash on R* all you want for their awful money resets, bans and terrible peer 2 peer connections
but hell, they sure pump out a lot of content at a very consistent rate and you gotta give props for that

I don't think people really have a big problem with the vehicles and shit that they pump out, I think it's just the awful dripfeed and the shitty prices that are associated with them.
On the topic of the update, there is a pastebin link with all or most of the update text [url=https://pastebin.com/r3V0gjwf]here[/url]. It'll give you a bit of information about some of the upgrades, clothing, and vehicles that we'll see. One notable thing is that you can buy the Fort Zancudo hangar and you'll get low level clearance there.
Wait, why does that Mustang-looking car has a Dewbachee logo?

It's a classic Rapid GT.
[quote]Everything else from the 80s has aged. The Rapid GT Classic has only matured. Like a fine claret or a really good boob job, each passing year adds something mysterious to its allure. Sure, that new sports coupé is half the weight, and it has a cleaner transmission. But trust us: get inside this vintage, experience the kind of technique and self-assurance only time can bestow, and you'll never waste your time on a younger model again.[/quote]

I'm sorry to anyone who saw my post explaining that the red Buzzard screenshot was the Havok yesterday. It turns out Rockstar was dumb as fuck with their caption and just mentioned the Havok(which is the new version of the Little Willie from VCS) while having a screenshot of a red Buzzard.

Update is apparently rolling out on consoles, unknown size as of now.
