I've played with Jake on the Official 10 many a time, and he is an honest guy and I know he doesn't cheat. The only complaints of him are that he doesn't kill enough - like he said, he just likes his hotring racer.

Won't let me delete it anymore - Oh well, I'm sure Mr Bump or another moderator will come across it and delete it

Does anyone else see my last post twice? Don't know how that happened...

Niz, I think youre taking the wrong approach to becoming a respected clan in the MTA community

The 'Haitians' in GTA were the name of the gang run by actual Haitians. Killing all the Haitians meant killing all the members of the Haitian gang, not all the Haitian people. That's why I see this as no different from 'Kill all the Triads' - The Triads were all Asians, only they werent called 'The Asians'. This may be insensitive to some, but I don't find it racist.

I think you're missing the point that GTA is a game, not a real life set of instructions. So when GTA tells you to 'kill all the Haitians' its a game objective, not a real-life suggestion - how you find that even slightly racist is beyond me (even if you're Haitian yourself). I guess you're right, I think I'm going to go kill some Haitians now

Huh? I found nothing in either GTA3 or VC to be racist...

I've had worse lag than in .3, but still very playable. Regardless, I'm glad the MTA team has identified the problem and begun to fix it. MTA Team are my heroes

All I do to avoid the spawn crashes is stand still without making any movement until everything loads up completely (about 2-3 seconds - but this probably varies depending on your PC speed). Anyways, this works great for me, so I suggest others try it.

Are you sure? I thought I remembered reading that GTA3 was censored for Australia, but I guess I could be wrong.

Thats a bit of a problem tho, as you can see other players' name/health tags through walls and buildings - But if that could be fixed, I would like a game mode like that

Word

Haha, I'm surprised this topic hasnt been locked yet. I agree with Death that helikills are an intergral part of the game, but I also agree that they shouldn't be the main focus of a clan match. I see no harm of them in a regular match, tho

Well aren't there only like 4 heli's total in the game now. Black Maverick and VCN Chopper were removed. So chill about the heli kills, they aren't going to go away.

Yea, if nobody helps them out they might resort to cheating or something, and that would be no good for anyone

What an argument this is - I agree with Death, heli's are a part of Vice City and therefore you should either learn to avoid them, or not play. And yes, MaD - it can get annoying when someone repeatedly heli kills, but in that case either shoot them down or dont let them heli kill you and theyll be forced to find another tactic. The 'problems' with the heli's you are complaining about are completely in your control to avoid What open areas with no cover are their in Vice City? I have yet to come across any open fields of flowers and golden rolling hills in Vice City... Try standing next to a lightpost or - heres a tough one - sidestepping. Heli kills are a part of Vice City and therefore are going to stay in MTA. If watching the radar was such a hard task then people running up with M60's would be an even bigger problem than heli kills, because you can at least hear a heli coming. So, hopefully you can understand that heli kills are a 'problem' that youll have to learn to deal with, because this 'problem' is not going to go away.... If you can't understand that I hope you can at least stop arguing a point that is completely ridiculous.

Haha, the Colt45 is the little pistol...

You can run over people with the cars, so why not with the helis? Plus, the cars will eventually have synced drivebys which the heli still will never have, so what better defense mechanism than the blades. I agree that excessive heli killing can be annoying, but it's a part of the game and should remain that way.

Try that, Korven

Yea it's too easy to just fly away - makes you have to plan your escape

Never even noticed that there was one

I don't think the heli-jack kill should ever be fixed - makes things fun.

But you can still jump and then switch weapons mid-jump
