GTA V Multiplayer thread (360, XBOX ONE, PS3 and PS4)

the idea is good the implementation of it is all wrong.

In a multiplayer game - actions against NPCs shouldn't put a bounty on your head.The aim of the game is to kill people and still vehicles

For those rocking round in a tank in free roam, having a 3k bounty on their head won't bother them. For any player capable of taking on somebody in a tank - 3k is nothing.

You could lose that easily just in one death due to the current death tax. Its not worth the effort.

agreed NPC bounty is annoying, but from the OP's post he was constantly killing friends, hookers and sticky bombing using tanks ect... R* could see that as trolling, i do think a 2 day ban is abit OTT i think a warning system via a text saying something "warning killing team-mates/players continously could be seen as griefing and a 24hr Ban will be applied". I think R* use a ticket rate on free roam for example if you continously kill the same player "joe blogs" that the ban comes in play but R* wont tell you that.

Im not saying that the whole point is not kill players, but killing the same player over and over past the ticket rate can be seen as bad sport, cause your'e not giving the other player a chance. but dont take my word as gospel.

Is it actually correct? I'm 16th and I haven't played much. Also the leaderboard only has 65 odd of us (hard to tell as it seems impossible to sort)

Hopefully they fix that because then I can kick people who haven't played at all.

May just be that they are running with other crews. For instance I am in the OCUK Crew but am also in another crew with my brother so have not actually activated the OCUK one yet.

The free 500k is tasty :) That will go on a house straight away
 
I don't see how blowing stuff up could be trolling? Everyone enjoys the game differently, it's a free roam open world game you should be able to do what you want in the free roam bit without facing a penalty. Getting basically a 2 day ban for joining others in races and what not is laughable and I have no doubts Rockstar will either end up removing the bad sport thing or nerfing it to the point it has little effect.

Are you a troll in Battlefield if you keep blowing up the same guys tank?

There's a difference between blowing stuff up and killing the same players over and over, BF and GTA are 2 totally different games so no point comparing it. The rules are in there for a reason to stop players griefing in a way that it just becomes an annoyance to others, that's why they implemented team death match and death match.

I can see R* point in aspect that you get a death penaulty so if your constantly getting killed by 1 player, not exactly a benefit to the player dying is it.
 
The genre has always been about causing mayhem, fair enough if you kill the same player over and over again like 10+ times in a row I can start to see your point, but people are getting bad sport for blowing someones car up once and sometimes it's even accidental. My mate got put in the bad sport group for killing me unintentionally a few times, being ran over, blew up in a crash etc etc.

Hope it is correct as it says I'm 2nd. :D
 
The bad sport thing is a tad stupid at times, Had an instance last night where where myself and my brother got attacked by 2 guys, they killed me and my brother managed to kill them, we then started running back to our cars and they attacked us again yet we killed them again. This went on for about 3/4 minutes with us killing them as they kept attacking us. My bro then Sticky bombed their car and blew them up at which point he got a bad sport. They both then started trying to vote kick us from the session... It was just stupid.

From that aspect yes agreed abit oTT, i guess they have a code in there for killing team players/friends they see you as a bad sport. Been playing online and trust me it's frustrating getting killed whilst on minding your own business and loose 1.5k on death kills from some 100 rank noob, then they think it's fun to constantly kill you from a helicopter with rockets.

this happened the other night i had a bounty set on me, i had like 5 mins to go then some jockey in a helicopter with rockets blew me up. Fair enough..... i look around town for a house to buy and the same player does it again kills me for no reason other than be annoying, so i loose money then couldn't buy the place.
 
Yeah good point,you may be right.Although everybody is getting the money,even if they haven't lost a character.The people who lost characters surely should get something extra?

Any other "bad sports" want to swap a commend? I can't believe I need to do this begging garbage just to be able to get online with my friends, after being a good sport since launch and 1 hour of madness with a mate.

I wasn't actually killing Hookers, I've not unlocked tanks and I don't continuously kill my mates, it was just a bit of a laugh last night. Why have sticky bombs in the game if they get me banned? I can understand if I was just spending all my time trolling and griefing, but I've been consistently a "Good Sport" since the game came out.

2 full days is ****ing ridiculous, no races, no missions, no mates, just free-roams with level 100 boosters with tanks. No thanks.
