The Oppressors ruined this game

[Sir Fufu Bumkins the 5th]

The ability to be able to spawn a fast flying vehicle on the map anywhere with nearly unmatched speed and weaponry, combined with the smallest vehicle hitboxes really ruined this game. I loved that delivery missions have so much risk involved, you are always delivering in slow vehicles that are challenging to defend vs conventional vehicles, but now everyone and their mother can spawn these tiny vehicles that are nearly impossible to kill, that can easily intercept any overworld mission. It has literally made the game unplayable, and encouraged the community to treat eachother like ♥♥♥♥ all the time by providing massive incentive for griefing, especially with the overpowered vehicles. I don't know if I want to play this game anymore, especially with all of the lag and bugs lately.

I think that this game would be a lot better if the people who own MKII opppressors can only play with other MKII oppressors. The current state of the game is impossible for new players, and frustrating for players who don't want the most ridiculous weapons in the game.

Been playing recently, still having fun. I'm inclined to agree though. The weapon is very overpowered and any new player facing against it is done. It was already hard enough doing those missions before getting clipped by a hydra or buzzard. Those can at least be shot down. Good luck getting a missle into a bike.

Also ran into situation where someone had an osprey parked and was just nuking my buddy and I. The thing was able to see us soon as we respawned. Put 8 rockets into it and nothing.

Now once you get attacked, you can always find a spot to los so the bike has a harder time of seeing you. But you have little protection if they decide to come air strike your back while doing a mission.

players who screw other players over using whatever means available has ruined public servers.
not the machines.

the oppressor mk2 is infact one the best machines in the game.
one of the best overall experiences to enjoy.
a sort of effigy of the the typical 80's/90's flying bike, the judge dread bike and that hover jet bike found in that modern(ish) scifi film about human clones and going to the island.

both bikes are just a joy to use. would be better if you could activate your parachute while on a bike.
dont blame the machines. blame rockstars vision of a gta5-ww3-freeroam-worldspace.

(i think i remember someone commenting that the opr mk2 is the mc equivalent of the ceo buzzard. i think thats a pretty good way of looking at it)

(in the next few updates ppl will be moaning about the next vehicles that will no doubt be better than the bikes. nothing's changed. apart from public servers. they have indeed become more volatile, and thats what rockstar had planned all along..)

ppl dont seriously think that mp was just an "add-on" to th sp?
mp was planned all along. and from the release of the very first war machines, you could tell what direction the public servers were heading in.
rockstar will not stop pouring on the war machines. gta5 has become a military theater.

*next up. remote controlled stealth icbm missiles*

Use an insurgent pickup. You should be able to kill them before they destroy your car.

But if they are an Mc president, new lobby time.

I have said this once and I will say it again, the oppressor MKII should not have been added. The oppressor was good. It was fun. But the MKII is just a better deluxo. The deluxo in itself is as OP as cars in GTA should be able to get. It can fly, shoot stupidly accurate missiles and fit 2 people. The fact that an even better vehicle got added is a really bad sign. What's worse, it's a motorcycle. And that means MC presidents can just call it in instantly.

i use it to do supply runs. its faster then using a helicopter for most supply runs for me. its also nice as a defensive weapon in case some hydra griefer comes up and attacks me for no reason, i just turn around and destroy him. the first couple hydra griefers that came after me tried to fly in circles to avoid missles...lol

Just means they were poor pilots. Seems that you are the one grieving though.

wut are you babbling about?
i just said i use it for supply runs only.. and for self-defense against greiffers only when they attack me.

Oppressors are just tools,
indeed deadly in the hands of assassins.
Counters between each tools, all begun with 'out of the world' hovering Deluxo,
just a matter of 'caught offguard and who strikes first'.

But thought that cheaters/modders appearing in almost every mid to large lobbies are the ultimate disturbance to the game.
In midair, self disengaged, self exploded, a big ball/ tree riding the bike.

[BIGHEADBase]

Yea they stopped caring at the Deluxo, it did not need flipping missiles.

Person using Oppressor to grief vs Person using Oppressor to defend themselves.

Lil late to the party. It does nothing to the game. You just suck.

Hope R* fix that stupid speed glitch.

Knowing all versions of gta i would say rename this game. Its not the gta title worthy anymore.

Grand Flying Broomstick Griefing?

They are impossible to kill and the only thing that have frustrated me in game ever since I started playing, homing launcher doesn't work on it. The only defence is probably using a ruiner 2000 and running fully loaded.

The other way is getting on foot or trying to get under bridges or tunnels, even the explosive sniper isn't very effective, you just have to pray it hits. The oppressor mk2 unlike the original varient, is terrible against ground non vehicular targets. The best way is to get out of the vehicle, it's very rare they'll get a kill with it.
