what a pointless post maybe start the topic when you have something to show us

The problems with 0.5, 0.4, and 0.3. devs read...

lol, i don't think you can claim responsability for getting the spaz removed nutz leaving the weapons in its raw state seems to expose too many possible glitches. untill the syncing is perfect, effecting the way the weapons behave looks like the workaround solution the mta team is using I agree though. leave the weapon behaviour alone in blue, for balancing issues the only changes should be ammo quantity and maybe damage levels. (here's hoping that blue is so well synced that other restrictions won't be neccesary) -
let all the cheater bans resume! yay
-
it asks you to restart, but it doesnt force you to. not only would it prevent people from mixing game modes, enable someone to make a server rotation, and prevent cheaters, it would also stop people from gathering ammo and stuff while disconnected then reconnecting and suddenly someones car is jacked out of nowhere cause the person disconnected was in it when they connect. the only cons here is that someone has to reload the game and they loose all their money if they disconnect. poor connections can make this an issue. is it possible to only allow the "auto-reconnect" feature within a certain timeframe with no game mode change to reconnect without killing the game?
-
hmm, everyone would keep their game running and that would become a pain. if only a disconnect forced a "/quit" on the user as well.

Has anyone considered the idea that the reason the stubby is so popular is not because its strongest weapon, but because it is fun. stubby fights require reflexes, timing, strategy, and you really need to get in the opponents head and where he's going to move next. Stubby fighting was a different experience in mta. A lot of good points here, I agree with the idea of making other weapons stronger, not making the strong ones weaker. Taking features away is crippleware. -
thats not cause of someone saying "hack" in irc, its from the topic name (look at the blue title bar at the top of the window)

http://forum.mtavc.com/viewtopic.php?t=11098 read that. also, check your firewalls.

lol, i keep seeing blade posts telling people to shut up. blade; try not to flame so much, yer worse han the people complaining right now.
-
actually they are releasing a fix for the memory leak available to popular servers for testing purposes. i assume partyservers have it now (being the most popular amercan servers)
-
it will make finding cheaters harder, but stunt mode did need a little something extra.
-
makeveli, Im not talking about the boot splash screen (and lots of pcs have a blue splash screen btw) Im talking about the blue screen of death. the only purpose of the setting you mentioned earlier is to toggle the feature that automatically reboots the pc instead of showing the blue screen. It's not definite that its a driver issue, but thats a good place to start. it could be a fragmented hard disk or corrupted OS files as well. thats why i suggest writing down what the bluescreen says, it can give us a hint at what the issue is exactly.
-
dont post them if they are potentially malicious glitches that people can abuse others with please (some people know what i mean )

PC user building: http://vck.servebeer.com/vckpics/Images/pcbuilding.JPG and here is one right next to the am building that also has 2 floors, and much better tactical position: http://vck.servebeer.com/vckpics/Images/2story.JPG

hmm, staunton doesnt have a lot of roof access n it. the cemetary/church has a nice enclosed area and some grassy parts to climb up onto. the construction areas have lots of cover and variable terrain, but the neighbors might not be welcoming (theres already a gang at the construction site, but I think theres room) the bathroom is fairly enclosed and a tight squeeze, so if yer enemies have a flamethrower, thats not a good spot. if no flamethrowers are allowed in your match, its great though. the cop station has some tunnels for protection, and many levels to it the pc builing has a second level to it that you can stand on and shotgun people from above the basketball courts are near the winding ramp and surrounded by walls and other obsticles, plus that cabin in the park is neat scenery. donald love building is well protected, but no roof access.
-
i can tell they spent a lot of time making sure the missions were not too 1-sided. speed is a little difficult, but the van heist is the most fun I've ever had. for next release (if you do another release instead of just bug fixes) i suggest 1 more mission: assasin. the server should pick a random person and tell whoever chooses the mission to go kill that random person for an extra bonus. this wouldnt even have to interactive with other players. no one else needs to know that your out to kill a certain person. this sounds fairly simple compared to the other amazing game modes already in there.
-
shore side vale is exactly how i always pictured MTA. The ability do do interactive missions, cruise, or just fight. all at the same time! last night we had a great time doing the securicar scenerio. different gangs were all competing over the car, people protecting the convoy from ambushes while other teams set up roadblocks, it even exchanged hands a few times. It really makes teamwork fun!
-
yes, definitly exiting/disconnecting the mta client should kill the game process right away. It does cause others to be unstable when people do this. also- yes that was a cheater, I saw it the fist time i entered stunt. basically they fly around in a chopper with no clipping.
-
It is in yakuza territory, yes. but it is actually across the street from the actual spawning locations. I see no reason to disallow spawn points. The way gang fights are likely going to happen is each gang will choose 1 character to spawn. The fact that you can choose your weapon is awesome. this is the optimal gangfight method because it wont require a gang to meet up, they all spawn together anyways.
-
yeah, thats a problem that we all face. people join up and dissappear the next day, never to be seen again (or return 3 months down the road and wonder why their names arent in the memberlist anymore)
-
I beleive the reason you cant run with the nade is because running with a weapon and jumping with it are related somehow (like holding the rocket launcher).
-
that will stop it from rebooting, but a bluescreen will still come up anyways, and you will need to reboot. write down what you see in the bluescreen. it may give you a hint at whats actually the cause
-
there are still good locations in staunton. for instance: the college Donald Love's building (too bad we cant get to the roof) the other side of the construction site the basketball courts in the park the bathrooms in the park the cop station the dock area the computer building the cemetary/church the hospital the area behind the parking complex ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- EDIT: VCK has picked a shoreside base.
-
i had the same erorr when i wasnt connected to the internet. possible cause for this is a firewall.
-
