GTAV - General Off Road Discussion | LS 4x4 Crew

[KM964]

No meet for me today. Power is still out.

 

[Dan]

Getting lots of snow here. I would love to do some snow drifting with friends.
That means, I want a snow map online and being able to actually drift, whether its in the snow or on dry pavement.

 

[Buddharocks]

I might be able to do today's meet, I said before I'm playing on the west coast, our times are diff so I need a official set time. Plus it's football Sunday and I usually watch the games.

As for a meet, I wanna find a place where we can do a baja themed "huck fest" and jump the trucks for distance. There would be some rad photos we can all get. Just check out YouTube for huck fest and you'll see my idea. Maybe jump over certain amounts of vehicles to measure?

 

[Jet Badger]

Crew session is up. Shame a lot of you cannot come. As much of us as there will be, we'll try to accomplish the route around the whole map

If we can do that sometime next week (Not this week or this weekend), I would definitely bring along my BF Injection and perhaps my BF Bifta, too. I love the idea of a huck fest.

Now, for locations. There are plenty of dunes you can launch cars off of in the Senora Desert. It's just tough to find one where you can get consistent launches where everyone can get the same speed.

And now for one of my brilliantly stupid ideas: Park a Cheetah against a low solid object that can not be moved. Have the rear bumper face the object. Then, let a person in their offroader drive at top speed into the front of the Cheetah and they'll go flying. Of course, the Cheetah will probably need to be repaired after a few jumps, though.

That works, ill be cruising the dez to find a good location though just to keep the "theme" going, need to find a good runway and a smooth hill to hit. I'm guessing area around Trevor's airport would be good cuz we can use the runway to catch speed. If anyone has time to take a quick look feel free haha and lets us know

Is the meet still up? if it is, who is in there?

Dude I wish I could I'd swang my audi only time I do is in the snow

Anyone on lets do a couple trails

 

[Dan]

Serious question time:

Do offroad wheels/tires ACTUALLY have an effect on handling? For example: If I put offroad tires on a BF Bifta, would I have better traction off road and lose grip that i would normally have on the street? How about regular tires when going off road? Do they give you less grip?

 

[FoxSim]

Anyone still online? I've only woken up now

Yes, awesomely enough, they do make a difference! I put off road tires in my adder and it was a beast off road (except for the clearance problems...)

Good to know. Now, do off road tires on paved tarmac give you less grip than you normally would have?

I found the adder still had grip but travelled a lot slower. Like ALOT slower! Which I find fricking sick! *high fives for realism*

 

[KM964]

Hey guys, left the house today to get some necessities (GT6 ) when the roads melted, and I came back home to...

 

[FoxSim]

But is anyone online now? I don't wanna jump on if it's only two or three of us...

Ok. Good idea that I made two BF Biftas. One for offroad (Gulf livery), and a street racer one (Red and black because 🤬 creativity)

 

[BigFluff68x]

Sorry I've been gone for a few days, this last weekend was opening shotgun deer season, my group killed 16 deer!

Anyways, I'll probably be on later if anyone what's to do some wheelin'.

 

[Fastcarguy]

Does anyone know what Error 80710D36 is? it wont let me sign into psn. I have been trying to sign in for about an hour now, and restarted several times, and I still can not sign in.

 

[OwensRacing]

PSN is under maintenance today.

I was messing around with the ram truck (bison) with a trailer and noticed it has 4wd. Was it always 4wd?

I think it was before. Not really sure, never played around with it too much. Also, in the last update, I think Rockstar did something to make the 4 wheel drive better. My trucks feel like they climb better than they used to. Rockstar either did something about that, or I am going nuts. My vote is on the second option. Also, I found a good way to extend the blue and yellow trail on the ridge near Fort Zancudo. When you get to the river, cross it and continue through Lago Zancudo, do a little mud bugging, and make your way to the gas station at the edge of the highway. park up somewhere in the gas station and that is the end of the run

I know most of you are probably busy with gt6 but anyone download patch 1.07? Just a little FYI ...clean rebels and rat loaders are gone. Rockstar decided to remove them for some reason. This now makes 2 patches in a row that they have removed "legit" vehicles from my garage. WTF rockstar?

"Oh don't worry about those silly little trucks. We gave you the Cargobob after you've all been asking for it to show up. Just be quiet and don't complain, or we'll delay heists another two months."

I have the latest patch and havn't had any vehicles taken from my garage.

Also @soloaded I believe that they have modified the 4x4 ratios on vehicles. And I think the Canis Mesa now has a very weak 4x4 as my front wheels were skidding as I was powering up a hill the other night?

 

[Dan]

Any word on the Sandking XL? Do the front wheels finally get power?

You obviously didnt have ths clean rebel or the rat loader then or they would be gone for sure.

As a matter of fact the only "modded" vehicle i have ever had is the cageless merryweather mesa which is still currently sitting in my garage.

I do have the clean rebel. But not the rat loader. I got rid of it for my bodhi.
But both my rebels are still sitting in my garage. I drove them both last night.

P. S. I need/want the Cageless mesa. Help?

Well wtf...my rebel had probably 125k worth of mods and i found it sitting on the beach so i got it legit. Oh well, i guess. Rockstar has proved they have the power and they will do what they want.

As far as the mesa goes...if there is a car dups glitch still working i have no problem with getting you one... however As far as i know, the dupe glitch that involved you driving out of your garage with a passenger no longer works.

I'll have a look and hit you up for it if I can work out how to dupe I also haven't duped any vehicles yet... Proud to say I've found them all myself With hard work. My entire garage is all 4x4 / trucks.

And @CallmeDan I don't think it is 4x4 (yet?) but does seem to have more power I've felt.
