Mythaga 312 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 (edited) Well I must say the Casino DLC has rekindled my interest in GTA (for the time being at least...) Loving the fact that there's no PVP stuff (yet) and the freemode missions can be done solo in an invite only session (they are fun and varied and a decent earner as you get cash and chips) In fact this update is very MMO-ish in general which is a good thing imo. Plus, I've heard via the grapevine that there is a Survival Creator coming, this should be great. I used to love doing survivals back in the day but they never got updated so they became old quickly. Also some great new cars in the dripfeed, Volvo 242! Edited July 29, 2019 by Mythaga 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the Creator rumors are true, Survival would be cool (Clowns, Zombies, Punks) also being able to have more than four players would be nice. What would really open it up would be Mission Creator though, also opening up more than 5 different vehicle types would help too. I just cant help thinking all these things will be drip fed to us until GTA6 has a release date. Can you smell what the Stone is cooking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doubleg213 746 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 I used a Paulies Tenshun logo on the bottom banner and the HKS Skyline is his livery. If this doesn't convince him to come out and play on a Friday night then nothing will. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows what C*'s plan is regarding GTA6 as they are so secretive, but I can't see it being on this generation of consoles. There's still ALOT they could do with GTAO if they really wanted to. A mission creator would be great but can't see it now, we would have seen it by now surely? I can't help but notice there been a slight shift towards more MMO/RPG style stuff recently? The Nightclub was very MMO/RPGish and now the Casino? Plus the fact you can do the missions solo in an invite only session, something I never would have expected a couple of years ago when they were actively pushing everyone towards public sessions. (as well as the new anti griefing measures they have introduced) Maybe, just maybe they have finally twigged that not everyone wants to go around aimlessly killing each other?

doubleg213 746 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Woah, what Creator rumous? I've been messing about with the 635, Volvo and the new Dodges on PC. I'll have some videos and pics to go up today, recorded footage and done some pics. I'll be on it once Time Trials details are posted. Volvo and BMW feel very slow (but that may be a R* decoy as they've done that in the past and then changed performance when they unlock them) and the Hellfire is great fun.

In fact if you remember someone managed to glitch into it and create new missions back on the PS3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleg213 746 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Rexx has had that thread going for a long time now though. Does is actually say somewhere that it's coming? I really, really would love them just to give us the lot. Including Adversary mode etc. with larger number allowed though. Stuff like that Smokey and the Bandit capture etc. that I tried ages ago would be great if we had mission options. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JuniorChubb 3,359 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 It would make planning themed nights a whole lot easier and open up lots of ideas we have had issues putting into motion in the past... However considering they have not replaced the missing stunt track section for over a year now I am not holding out much hope. Can you smell what the Stone is cooking?

Mythaga 312 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 (edited) It is interesting, as I said, I feel a slight shift in attitude and relaxing of the "must generate Shark Card sales" rule... So maybe we will see these long awaited creator updates after all? If C* were smart they would do whatever it takes to keep people playing the game until GTA 6 comes out, a few freebees here and there and some community pleasing things such as the Mission Creator would certainly do that. Also the prices of things in the Casino update are not as stupid as I thought they might be, its certainly no Arena Wars (I took one look at the prices and never bothered with it...) High prices don't necessarily drive people to buy Shark Cards, some people simply stop playing the game. (I know at least 2-3 people who have stopped playing the game altogether because of how silly the prices of everything got) Perhaps C* have finally started to realise this?

Possibly easing off the throttle a little, there is still plenty to spend on but if you linked your Twitch Prime account you got a million or so for free and basic Casino membership too.

doubleg213 746 Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 They've added two more Group A cars and a Hellcat. They are aces with me right now. We also can actually do a proper Group A multi class period accurate thing now Class 1 Elegy Retro, Class 2 Sentinel Classic, Class 3 Futo. All I need now is 29 other players......

I missed out on that unfortunately, but got a 2mil+ Super Car for nowt on the spinner so not all bad... I'm a bit flush with cash at the moment though as I am in the process of retiring my male character so slowing selling all his cars and shut everything down. No need to have 2 characters now with all the extra garage space plus my female character has more stuff anyway. Never realised how many duplicate or pointless cars I owned lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
