{{Gripe}}Recently, Rockstar removed the ability to turn off Blips in multiplayer Free Mode. That is incredibly stupid. | {{Gripe}}Recently, Rockstar removed the ability to turn off Blips in multiplayer Free Mode. That is incredibly stupid. | ||
:{{Rebut}}R. E. A. L. I. S. M. I know it's multiplayer, but although you may have a map of Liberty City, you can't put radar onto your phone (like to see Red Green do that. :)) It makes you a bit more alert by forcing you to constantly be on guard for enemies. | :{{Rebut}}R.

{{Rebut}} This is because R* doesnt expect you to start multiplayer firefights in Free Mode. If you want that sort of thing, they think you would go to deathmatch. | |||

{{Gripe}}16 online players isn't enough in Free Mode. It would have been preferable if it had up to 50 players, instead of less. | {{Gripe}}16 online players isn't enough in Free Mode. It would have been preferable if it had up to 50 players, instead of less. | ||

{{Rebut}} This is used to compensate for poor aim. Besides, you miss a lot unless the target is right in fron of you and out of cover. Adding a 20% chance your bullet would fly into the unknown means only 1/5 of your ammo would make it TO the target, much less hit it. You would be left with the ability to run up to someone shooting you and melee them to death. | |||

{{Gripe}}There is'nt enough spoken dialogues to their custom characters. They should have been silent instead, as their taunts are repetitive and unfunny. | {{Gripe}}There is'nt enough spoken dialogues to their custom characters.

:{{Rebut}}The [[NOOSE]] are wearing body armor so it's hard to kill them around the upper body. They'll be dead after you shoot them in the head. | :{{Rebut}}The [[NOOSE]] are wearing body armor so it's hard to kill them around the upper body. They'll be dead after you shoot them in the head. | ||
::{{Gripe}}OR just another worthless lag. Because even if I shoot them in the head, they still get back up and still shoot at me. That lag almost reminds me of Terminator robots, because even when you shot them in their heads, they'll just keep on running torwards you and then kill you, thanks to unwanted lags. Sheesh. | ::{{Gripe}}OR just another worthless lag. Because even if I shoot them in the head, they still get back up and still shoot at me.

{{Rebut}} Then you did not hit them in the head. [[Body Armor]] is fairly effective on NPCs and therefore a hit to the body is useless. Lag does not have an effect on your aim unless another player influences (i.e. shoots, pushes, etc.) the target. | |||

{{Gripe}}Why use the [[Rocket Launcher]] in '''GTA Races'''? It is an unfair weapon and a player holding it will have the ability to blow them up to bits, rendering the race unfair and irritating, because all other players has to kick a player out of the race for unfair cheating. | {{Gripe}}Why use the [[Rocket Launcher]] in '''GTA Races'''?

::::::{{Rebut}}How about asking for a new multiplayer game mode with your ideas in it instead of bashing a very nice existing one. I can see how one can become a little feuded by those ignorant spawn killers, but as long as you find a nice game with well rounded people you should be alright. Now here is my proposal; Make more options for the host, mainly for allowed weapons (specifically). However, car killings would still be inevitable, but they are harder to execute. Keep Free Mode, but add more host options. Asking to have the entire mode changed to fit your individual needs is a little bit much. | ::::::{{Rebut}}How about asking for a new multiplayer game mode with your ideas in it instead of bashing a very nice existing one.

::::::{{Rebut}} There is now an option to fix that. Go into your phone, go to the multiplayer menu, and then go to the "Preferences" menu, found between "Player Model" and "Tutorial." from there you can set Auto-Aim, Police, and Friendly Fire on or off. Or set it to "don't care" to find more games, although it is random if those settings will be on or not in the game you join. See the multiplayer section for more on this. | ::::::{{Rebut}} There is now an option to fix that.

{{Gripe}} I agree. I find it annoying when I go to the airport to get a [[Buzzard]] only to be shot at by someone with an RPG, or find someone detonating all choppers for no reason. Also, I find that I am killed more often in non-Friendly Fire games than in those with that option enabled: If you use an explosive, it still sends people flying, and if you run someone over, it still kills. | |||

{{Gripe}} Sometimes I wish I could target NPCs in Free Mode like you can target other players just to liven up the combat. However, this would obviously be an annoyance if you're trying to kill other players. | {{Gripe}} Sometimes I wish I could target NPCs in Free Mode like you can target other players just to liven up the combat.

::::{{Rebut}}First, R* is not gonna reward you for piss-poor gameplay. Second, R* does NOT expect you finish a race in a Faggio, carjack some sucka with a better car and finish the race. | ::::{{Rebut}}First, R* is not gonna reward you for piss-poor gameplay.

{{Rebut}} This is to save memory. If all vehicles spawn, the server would have to keep track of all different types of vehicles, select which ones to spawn, what color, what driver, etc. Its already a load on the servers. | |||

{{Gripe}}Rockstar Games featured a cheap and unreliable way to get back to racing in '''GTA Races'''. They always give you a crappy [[Faggio]] (a really slow scooter) in order to "catch up" with other players. I find this retarded, because I wish Rockstar would give us a better and faster vehicle to catch up with other players, but nooo. They have to be cheap. | {{Gripe}}Rockstar Games featured a cheap and unreliable way to get back to racing in '''GTA Races'''.
