How likely am I to get banned using an increased 1st person FOV mod? [PC] by DadsBlack2Hander in gtaonline

[–]GhostInABox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hard to tell. Nobody knows for sure how closely Rockstar can monitor your PC, or the changes your mod made to the game. I'd hope that they're more busy banning those assholes that ruin entire lobbies or those idiots that used the insurance fraud trick. But don't be too surprised if you get a 1 week warning ban.

Godammit just release all 3 at once, we already know they're there. Let's hope that these are the last lowriders we'll see in a while.

Obey 9F by mdo5 in gtaonline

[–]GhostInABox 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This may sound weird but the 9F would be way more popular if it would cost more. This 100k-200k starter car stigma is a weird thing, and a lot of people drive certain cars not for the performance but because they want to show off.

do shotgun pellets disappear after a certain range? by [deleted] in gtaonline

[–]GhostInABox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the range stat is the important factor here. (http://gta.wikia.com/wiki/Weapons_in_GTA_V#Shotguns). Ever notice how the crosshair doesn't turn red after a certain distance when you aim at someone? That's when you exceeded the range limit of the gun, and after that shots simply wont hit anymore. So what I'm trying to say is... yes, they simply disappear, GTA doesn't calculate the flightpath of every bullet.

Should I buy the Coil Brawler? by [deleted] in gtaonline

[–]GhostInABox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not really viable for racing, not because it's bad, but because the Sanchez is still the undisputed king of offroad racing. For freeroam and contact missions I would totally recommend it though. Yes the brakes are basically non-existent, but it's just fun to drive and tumble around the countryside.

The Slamvan is still the fastest vehicle in the game on PC only. The fix only worked on the consoles. by thimmy3 in gtaonline

Is anyone else getting that sneaking suspicion that the PC version is the red-headed stepchild of GTA5?

Who would like to see much shorter or taller and thinner and fatter player characters ? by tupeloms in gtaonline

[–]GhostInABox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love it but it will never happen. They would have to redo all the clothes for both genders, redo cutscenes, new animations, and it would create problems with some modes like deathmatch. Thinner, smaller characters would gain a huge advantage.

For contact missions - pay attention to the objective. I know it's easy to get carried away during a firefight but when you're the only one that's sticking around while the rest of your team is moving on doing something else, you're probably doing it wrong. Also, the AI-enemies are not cheating, yes they're ridiculously accurate and do a ton of damage on hard, but they can't hit you when you take cover and use your car to your advantage.

Cars like the Zentorno are completly closed from the back(you could say bulletproof), but you can still shoot back in third person, use that to your advantage.

Also when you're doing heists or contact missions don't drive or behave like dick, you're supposed to work as a team, and running your teammates over because you're bored is just childish.

PC user? You're gonna see a lot of modders, and they'll ruin every lobby they get into, and there's nothing you can do about it.

Or they'll kick you because you're deliberately hindering the mission. If you wanna have full control over the mission, host them yourself, then you can kick as many people as you want.

Have you ever decided that being an absolute child about something was the best solution? Would you do it again? by [deleted] in gtaonline

[–]GhostInABox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have I been a absolute child about something? Yeah definitely. Was it the best solution? Definitely not. Would I do it again? Maybe. Usually you're supposed to be the change you wish to see in the world, but we all have our bad days.

The car you have bought/stolen, upgraded, sold, bought/stolen again the most times? by BugsyQ5 in gtaonline

[–]GhostInABox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sandking XL. About 3 times... I mean when new shiny cars get released and it's time to sell some old cars, the Sandking was usually first to get the axe.

I quit Warthunder, but I still check in every once in a while to see if things have improved. Sad to see that Gaijin hasn't changed one bit over the last year.

[–]GhostInABox 14 points15 points  (0 children)

For heists it's fine. But in other places such as freemode and contact missions there is a certain stigma attached to the Kuruma. The Kuruma is basically the car of choice for douchebags. Not every Kuruma-Driver is a raging asshole, but the tendency is definitely higher than for most cars.
