Your poll or discussion is not getting you anywhere. It’s obvious you’re just bitching on VIP features to stay relevant on this forum buddy
Thanks for assuming that I only have free time and expend my energy to protect my forum ego rather than wanting to make this gamemode a bit better.
Well what could I expect, it's the obligatory "No you just bitching for VIP" post expected in every thread that dares to speak anything against VIP features.
Tell me a ground vehicle that can practically keep up with an Infernus, period.
Without Nitro? Easy
Bullet
Turismo
NRG with aerodynamic wheelie, it's the fastest ground vehicle ingame with that.
And that's just straight I am talking about solely because Infernus has inferior handling, is heavy and slides easily, it's power is the only thing that makes the other things negligible in a straight.
Eg: The Desert Blaze race is a good example, my times with a Bullet is significantly better than a infernus solely because Bullet has a far better cornering and grip, which helps in cutting time in two major corners and the corners don't even require brakes.
Such vehicle advantages is pretty fucked over when you literally have a car that can spawn infinite nitro and cancel out any vehicle skill gap due to sheer boosting and correction.
That's why you don't even waste the time and you either nail the Infernus by setting up before it, or you take a plane. "Ambushing" makes it sound difficult. A moron rocketing around in an Infernus is a sitting duck for a Rustler. It usually doesn't take me more than a few seconds to set the piece of shit on fire- it's the same for any car. It's the ground equivalent of someone flying really high in the air. If you know how to handle it, it's very obvious that the person flying so high or driving the Infernus around LV is making a really dumb move. They've usually outrun their security, they're stupidly depending on one "advantage" that they only have over people who are too lazy or stupid to counter it, and to top it all off, it only takes one barely competent person to take them down. Is that not enough of a check on nitro?
Problem is you see, not everyone uses the Infernus. Newbs can't even handle it's steering. Usually there are three types of Infernus Drivers.
1.)Newbs who can't drive
2.)People who can't actually drive but put all their teammates on top of their car
3.)Those who can actually drive it well
Because Infernus is limited to specific locations only 2.) and 3.) are the most commonly seen these days
A good driver with a brain can easily dodge the rustler by letting the rustler get ahead,driving properly on tightly packed roads with buildings around,take underpasses and what not.
(1)[H]nz88 is a good example.
People just prefer to take NRGs because due to obvious reasons:
1.)Fastest
2.)Easy Handling
3.)Front Driveby
4.)Stunt Vehicle
5.)SpaZ Driveby Dmg
Same with Sultan.
But that isn't the case we are discussing here, that was simply a follow up to Chetan's post.
Infernus isn't the only problem, it's just the minor one. The problem and the discussion as I said earlier is on a vehicle to vehicle basis.
You're making nitro sound much more useful than it actually is.
Because it is, the thing I brought server knowledge into the question because it's obvious no one actually paid attention to driving, it's not a behemoth of a task just a simple observation. Heck it's even more noticeable with this type of nitro spawning.
It isn't esoteric to that extent if the average player has like more than 2-3 years worth of playing on SAMP.
Recently one used Hydraulics and Off Road Tires in Races to gain advantage and soon others followed. Both of the advantages are rather obvious yet it only began to show up recently.
Another reason why I am bringing this up because someone well known and a old player said Admins were gonna 'Fix' this Nitro thingy long ago to not make it OP.
Btw, please don't assume that this topic is only concerning over a Nitro Spammy Infernus going over a straight. That's why I am writing this in bold, because people don't even read shit and go with the response to it, that's why I am writing that in last.
Fine looks like people don't have any idea. Well, then let me prove it with some videos I will be uploading soon.
