Yes. These are definitely problems. There is also a problem in the Dry Docking Mission (Unlocked at Rank 45). I was with a few other people and after I killed the last of the enemies, my character jumped in the water to swim towards the boat and that didn't work because I couldn't swim at all. I was literally walking in the water and I couldn't climb the ladder. I could still breathe too and the Lung Capacity Meter didn't pop up either. It is a strange glitch. Very strange glitch.

Yeah, this game is still full of glitches. But more just keep appearing after every update. I am rapidly losing interest in GTAO.
 
Did a mission earlier with JB and one random, after completing the mission ended he gunned both of us down then in retaliation I blew his car up with a grenade and killed him with a sniper. He then goes and steals my car and after around 5 minutes chasing him he bails and proceeds to blow my car up, JB already put a $1k bounty on him so I kill him and take the bounty. I then go after the high priority vehicle and paint that then get to the docks then out of nowhere he kills me on just outside the warehouse where you go in.

Me too, I really hope the next patch before the DLC releases actually improves and fixes things or I'll probably end up putting this game on the shelf a lot sooner than I hoped.

The thing that really bugs me the most is the way the AI spawns (enemies in missions & police in free roam) it really is beyond a joke at times, and very 'immersion' breaking. I've lost count of the amount of times I'll be driving away from cops in cool down period coming up to a crossroad junction only to have the the game spawn 3 police on each of the possible routes when I'm about 100 yards away from it. Even worse (Just had this happen now) killing some police at Sandy Shores Air Field only to have a police heli spawn literally right above my head, not spawning 50-100 yards away and flying right too me, I can just about accept that, but to spawn it right above me is a joke.

I find it near to impossible to get any enjoyment out of missions now as the more I repeat them the more flaws I notice. (Again just had this happen earlier) Doing 'On Maneuvers' with a friend, on top of a hill sniping the AI I see one drop as I kill him then 'pop' another spawns right over his dead body in my sights.
 
I hate that with helis, you can take one out and another will be on the scene in 10 seconds.

Spawning is also really bad in some of the survival maps, on the industrial yard one I had a cop spawn pretty much 'inside' me.
 
What's the fun in spin everyone else and not win in Race? People keep spinning me and others and they still usually finish in the dead end of the leaderboard because they can't control the car after spinning someone else and spin as well.

Oh yeah, I really hate that on missions, seeing guys just randomly spawn in front of me. And the stupid AI auto aim is a total joke. I keep finding flaws everywhere with this game, that's why I'm playing something else now, because it just continues to annoy me.

Because they're idiots, essentially.

You're trying to race seriously in a game full of non-serious racers. It sucks but who actually cares if you do or don't win a race on GTA? Nobody.

Plus the fact it is street racing, there are no rules or unwritten code of conduct. It's anything goes.

Lost too many races because of that. I could have easily 85-90 wins instead of 70 '-'

Tell me about it. The worst is when you get punted by one car, start to correct yourself then you get hit again, and again, and it takes you an age to get back pointing forward.

It's the best way I can make money on Online. I don't really care if you spin me once, but when you try to spin every single time I'm ahead or trying to pass you (you being anyone else who's racing).

Exactly. Or like I said, being spun multiple times by the same guy in the same race.
 
I have 14 wins and 57 losses. That's mainly because most of the races I've been in were crappy. I'm a really good driver, but apparently the others that I race with think that it's funny to mess with my winning/losses ratio. :(
 
If you ever join a game and I'm in it, I am giving free helicopters to anyone in the GTPlanet crew, unless you kill me or other GTP'ers.

Win/Loss ratios are a poor judge of someone's ability in a race for the above reasons. You shouldn't really worry about it, but obviously higher numbers on either side are a good sign of experience.

On a side note, if anyone needs help doing anything (I mean anything) just ask, I've pretty much got everything at my disposal except a tank and a minigun, but if you need a gunman/driver or opponent in tennis/darts/golf that will not try and win, let me know. I'm willing to help anyone in need.

That's what I complain about. But right now I have been a 10 race streak with the same guys (we're in 5) and all races have been pretty clean.
 
I decided to delete my rare cars such as the Space Docker and snow cars, leaving only Franklin's Buffalo in my garage. I miss my old cars and I plan on putting them back into my garage. :)
 
How come hacking GT5 2 years after it came out was such a taboo subject, yet we're modding GTA: Online a month after it launched
 
I'm planning in getting rid of my Stratum and another car so I can buy a Feltzer and a Sanchez. I want to make a DTM Feltzer and just max out the Sanchez.
 
After the Stimulus Package, I'm gonna purchase a 10 car garage apartment & get a Sheriff SUV & Police Cruiser (The cooler looking modern one)

Whenever that appears.

Yeah, their commitment to releasing it after all bugs have been fixed with garages/characters will delay it a few more weeks at least.
Click to expand...

But when it happens, I've got a plan. I already have figured out how to get the vehicles & how to get them into a garage.
 
Correction to my previous post: I will give free helicopter rides to anyone in the GTP crew in the lobby I am in. If you are in need of a Helicopter Pick-Up, text me in-game with the message "HPU."

When I unlock the Cargobob, I will pick up anyone's vehicle to any location. Text me in-game "CBPU" for a Cargobob Pick-Up.

If you have purposely killed me in the lobby, I will refuse to pick you up. Also, once you've been picked up, you MUST set a waypoint for me to fly you to. I wont land in an area if its full of potentially hostile players. In that case, you'll have to jump out. If you are in a separate lobby and private message me you need to be picked up, I will not leave the current session to join you.

If you have any more questions, please PM me.

Unless you can glitch it in your garage, you can't store the Taurus-esque police cruiser. Tried it myself and said I can't store police vehicles in my garage.

But for some odd reason, you can store the sheriff SUV.
 
Okay, if you're done racing for the day and are just about to quit and log off....DON'T INVITE PEOPLE TO A RACE! Seriously, I left a race of bumper cars in Down the Drain hop into a race session with a crew member who invited me, only to have that crew member immediately leave. And don't say it automatically invites people. It doesn't unless you hit the "auto-invite and play" button.

He keeps inviting people and then not waiting for them to join, keeps Catchup on all the time, and doesn't kick dirty drivers. What a poor host.
 
I honestly during a race of bumper-cars I would let them all do that and I'm that guy in the back waiting for the right moment to pass
 
Was just in a public room with a $7000 bounty on my head, and this guy found out where I was hiding. Luckily I thought ahead, and put some stickies at the opening of the tunnel. Twas hilarious. :lol:

He eventually got me though. :indiff:
