GTA V Crew (PS3) - Hierarchy Update Pg. 3

[Chookes 965]

Luring Children was a nice person, glad we met that c**t.

[PrivateParts_93 220]

Carnage lads carnage . All I heard in the bike race was bati so I picked my custom one sorry :/ I knew someone else would not pick one

[Chookes 965]

If what we did tonight was basically the new Gran Turismo 6, I'd buy that shit.

[Dr Diamond 407]

fucking catch up.....oh im not in last place anymore cos someone is miles behind me on the map












oh look they are going 2-3x as fast as me now and im last.....

[Just Cal 461]

That's tailgating. Was the same in burnout and other games.

Where it keeps saying people have entered 1st. Whats the deal with that

[Chookes 965]

I know, something's wrong with that, it never says I have entered first. Gltich, perhaps?

[Glen11 51]

Nah the catch up is pretty ridiculous on this game. I was miles ahead of Jack and Rich on a straight and they just flew past me like I wasnt moving. Its crazy

[Palle 491]

Slipstreaming in this game is the dick, I really hate it. R* trying to hold everyone's hand online, it's ridiculous.

You either learn how to play the game or you lose, why should you get free wins for being able to creep behind me entire races!? Fuarrrk

[Just Cal 461]

Jesus lads. Just learn to swerve.

The cops do the exact same thing, they get behind you and ram the fuck out of you. The only way to stop it is to swerve.

[Harrison 202]

Just hold brake, that normally fucks 'em

Sucks that you just can't be a good driver to win anymore but instead have to concentrate on ways to cancel out the noob boosts of other players...

[Just Cal 461]

Still better than deathstreaks

[Palle 491]

Still better than deathstreaks

It's just as bad as death streaks. Constant death streaks!

[Just Cal 461]

Host and turn catch up off then.

[Palle 491]

Host and turn catch up off then.

Will probably take a bit longer but good call

[PrivateParts_93 220]

Fecking hell Guys . Its a mechanic of the game. That actually happens to be in racing games. Stopping someone from doing it makes it challenging . Throwing the toys out of the pram over little things

[Palle 491]

Nah. You should have seen some of the races I was in. Wasn't even a race.

"3... 2... 1... GO

-Turbo headstart! Aww yeah I'm first, those noobs be stuck in a pile behind me for a long time! I'll just pedal to the metal on this straight road ahead, ain't no bitch gonna touch me!

...

Heey, why does my car slow down so much all of a sudden??

*WRROOOOM*

WTF was that? A jet?

- Haha I'm first now lolz, you slow bro? Trolololz

- No way dude! This is some BS!

*WRRROOOOOM*

- Ohai, never mind me! I'm just slipstreaming on the first dude to get first because it's my turn now lulz"

*A wild third car appears! It's super fast! Third car uses fishtail attack! It's super effective!*

*Car goes straight into a telephone pole to a full stop, everyone else pass you by*

- ; ___ ; "

Pretty much sums up most of my races.

[Just Cal 461]

I like it. It gives extra competition. Also, as said. It's in every racing game out there.

My opinion will not alter Palle! xD

But... This is not a racing game, it's GTA ._. I think catchup should be a handicap option for those who finish last all the time. It's OP.

[Just Cal 461]

They're races man. That section of the game is about racing.

Like the deathmatches section, is it OP that the other players can pick up more weapons, health and armour? No. It's properly balanced because you can too.

If someone is slipstreaming you in the racing section, just slipstream them right back.

[Chookes 965]

Everyone complaining about noobs winning races, I must be below a noob if I can't even get out of last place .

[Just Cal 461]

Slipstreaming is automatically turned off for fake gingers

[Chookes 965]

Sweet, at least you're admitting I'm not a real day-walker.

[Palle 491]

What bothers me is that it's too obvious, too powerful and it's something you can use all the time.

Obvious because it makes your car go so much slower, you just know "oh, someone is gonna pass me any second now". Let them have slip streaming but don't slow my damn car down, that's some lame ass sh*t seriously... They can still catch up with slip streaming anyway.

If I got to decide what to do with it, I would probably say:

Make it a less powerful. Gain full slipstreaming speed as an ability which will recharge based on how you avoid crashing or how you hit point markers.

Or maybe make it more subtle so you don't know exactly when you are doing it. If we are going with "this is realistic" then I would want it to be not so obvious with the jet engine-like sound and vapor trails behind the cars

[Corey the Kiwi 83]

I turn catch-up off; once you are a clear distance ahead of someone I believe it should stay that way. With that said though, I enjoy slipstreaming. It adds a different dynamic to the race, it makes it much more exciting in a close race in my opinion. Things such as moving side to side so they can't get a steady grip on you to slipstream as well as blocking them when they try to pass often help.
