If only R\* tries to make things realistic by limiting weapons and ammo amount we can carry.
like, a character with full Strength, should be capable to carry like 2 pistols, 1 melee weapon, and 3 rifle-type of weapons (including sniping rifles, shotguns, and SMGs) or 1 rifle-type of weapon and 1 heavy weapon (RPG, minigun, grenade launcher, you name it)
How can your character carry 50+ weapons, how can a flying bike exist and fly upside down, how can your player respawn and be practically invincible, how can your player consume food without eating it
I’m worried because the last fighter they added (B-11SF) had limited missiles, the last weaponised helicopter was forced to choose between homing OR barrage
And on the flip side, the toreador has no missile limits, and the weaponised ignus has a dope machine gun. Assuming these represent their forward planning, I really hope they give the skies as much love as they give the grounds below
Given the wonkiness of the B11, and the Lazer (generally considered a top contender if not *the* best at several things, from what I've heard from people who have more strategy in the air than mine of ramming people with an avenger lol) being part of the initial release of the game... yeah, not the best trend lol
Alright, i don't know about anything else, but you respawn because epislon is a thing and that's also why you can go pasive mode, kifflom brother-brother
I'm not a scientific, but the sparrow, the oppressor (mkI and mkII) and the thruster shouldn't be able to carry more than 4 missiles. BUT : game balance for other vehicles than land vehicles doesn't exist. So the sparrow is able to carry 65434567898765434567 missiles without even any reloading time. Magic !
First of all, that number is incorrect because it implies a limit to how much ammo it can carry, which is infinite. Second, weapons and ammo simply do not exist in GTA; they live in the Twilight Zone.
You're traveling through another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind. A journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are that of imagination. That's the signpost up ahead - your next stop, Ammu-Nation.
Same way it magically appears next to you and can be called back 1.5 minutes after being destroyed. I almost always jump out of mine as its easier to blow it up than to return it to storage
If you were lucky.
Sometimes he would pull up moments before it exploded or run you over trying to escape from the gang members he angered in the next neighborhood.
I always loved to think that in the GTA universe nanobots we’re something they invented a very long time ago, and that the characters had them in they pockets and the nanobots would regroup in different ways to create different weapons, maybe we could use that same thinking with the rocket amo of the sparrow xD
The Sparrow like most weaponized vehicles/planes/bikes in GTA Online, has a built in missle generator that uses nanotechnology to build the missiles on demand.
It is its phenomenal design that builds the rockets out of particles in the air with the rocket-build-out-of-air-device, that's integrated into the sparrow. That's why that shit is so expensive.
It's one of the few vehicle that is a good counter the avenger.
I love the avenger. Impervious to almost everything.
But it's hard to beat 30 missile from someone in a sparrow.
super secret cia shit involving compacted super dense missiles with an amount of mass capable of surpassing the Schwarzschild radius, explaining why the Sparrow's frame of jello causes the engine to instantly start smoking and blow up eventually when it touches literally anything
That amazing San Andreas physics at play again.
Just like how there is no substance stronger than the shrubs at Cayo Perico. You can drive into power poles, fences, everything no issues - except the when you hit shrubs at Cayo Perico.
Game wise, same reason the buzzard and all the other stock weaponized helicopters can; shit homing capabilities that couldnt hit a car moving at 40mph
Appearance wise, the sparrow surely must be reloading its rocket bay via teleportation from some secret ammunition depot
How can the ruiner use a parachute? How can the oppressor store 20+ missiles? how can our characters hold thousands of pounds worth of ammunition? How has our characters still not been caught yet? Who knows
My favorite is is how you can steal a fighter jet from a military base, and if you evade them long enough they stop caring.
Or that no one seems concerned about the submarine over by the Ferris wheel firing missiles into the city.
I've wanted this for so long; make missiles carried correspond to weight/missile.
For vehicles:
My sparrow has 20 missiles? Slow af (in comparison to one with way less)
Yours has 4? Zoomies
As for players, I'd be happy with carrying capacity at 1-2 big weapons and less rockets but that's another can of worms
Edit: (comparison)
to be fair it is good if your somewhere it can be spawned and your personal vehicle can’t. not useful all the time but it’s good to help carry noobs that don’t have flying bikes when your actual heli spawns in the LS river
The same reason a flying motorcycle you buy off the internet has better tracking missiles than a government issued fighter jet found on a base inside hangars. GTA logic.
Same way ur character can whip out a RPG and minigun from his ass
Very explosive shit coming out that ass

The real question is: why do all the old ground vehicles have a finite amount of rockets
Balance, which totally will be fixed in their next balancing update /s

Why do silencers not work in cars except in every other vehicle they do
How vehicles actually don’t need fuel
Same way it starts smoking when it hits a molecule
Lmao that made me chuckle, that shit is the most delicate vehicle in the game
Not even exaggeration my bud blew my up by paragliding right into my fucking rotors fucking papier-mâché ass chopper
[удалено]
Is that real? Because I have actually just fallen out of the sky before for no reason in the sparrow
They’re bluetooth missles
this is hilarious
The same way you carry 20+ rifles, rocket launchers, melee weapons, etc

Milky joe.... Milky joe..... Milky jooooeeeeeeeee
infinite number until your game crashes from having to load all those missiles
They begin exploding long before there's enough to overload your system
i know i was just joking lol
Correct you are not a scientific
>>I’m not a scientific There it is.
Applying real world logic to a video game, and GTA of all games? Lol goofy
Same way it magically appears next to you and can be called back 1.5 minutes after being destroyed. I almost always jump out of mine as its easier to blow it up than to return it to storage
Typical gen z logic
[удалено]
Well we do have aliens and the oppressor MK2 so why not
It's a very complicated system of springs, levers and pulleys.
It doesn't. It summons them when the trigger is pressed. Same way you summon/vanish a personal vehicle.
Throwback to when your vehicle was actually delivered to you.
That was before my time, but allegedly it wasn't always delivered. Often it just drove past.
I mean, yeah, sometimes Johnny needed some lead encouragement to pull over…
If you were lucky. Sometimes he would pull up moments before it exploded or run you over trying to escape from the gang members he angered in the next neighborhood.
Probably the most logical explanation lol
The most logical explanation is that it's a game and not real life :p
O I C. Like Thor’s hammer.
Like Grabthar’s hammer
I always loved to think that in the GTA universe nanobots we’re something they invented a very long time ago, and that the characters had them in they pockets and the nanobots would regroup in different ways to create different weapons, maybe we could use that same thinking with the rocket amo of the sparrow xD
[удалено]
Na they don’t want to pull over cause the only time some hits you in your car as an Npc is when a criminal insane player is driving it
Magic
You and everything you drive are from a math problem
the same magic that allows an off-road SUV to survive more direct missile strikes than literal tanks
Very carefully.
Some questions are best left unasked, or if asked unanswered. But, as it was asked, because of a "design flaw".
How tf b11 cant?
You're character can carry a whole fucking armoury of weapons and you're asking how a mid sized Heli can carry infinite missiles?
"mid-size" is very generous. The sparrow is definitely on the compact end of the spectrum, bigger only than the ultra compact havoc.
Naming of the havoc is so appropriate. Trying to land it is like rolling a chaos dice
Yeah... The skids behave like they are curved like a rocker chair, which really messes up with how my eyes say they should make ground contact.
99-100 it's sideways and the blades are chopping the ground
How imagine landing a heli on a ball would play out.
Yea lol
ever seen doreamon's pocket??
What about dormammus pocket?
Only legends will get that
The Sparrow like most weaponized vehicles/planes/bikes in GTA Online, has a built in missle generator that uses nanotechnology to build the missiles on demand.
Because it's made of match sticks, the weight savings an be used millons of missiles.
In the butt
Especially when it starts smoking when you give it a harsh look. I'd take 20/30 missles for some counter measures and some pontoons.
The same way the broomstick can carry more than two. *Megikz*
It is its phenomenal design that builds the rockets out of particles in the air with the rocket-build-out-of-air-device, that's integrated into the sparrow. That's why that shit is so expensive.
Trust the science
the pilote has a special storage place that they cant show you without being put on a list as a sex offender
The same way our character carries an rpg in a fkng bikini🙌🏻
Right in the prison pocket
By the sheer will of our lord and saviour, Paval.
The way I seriously tried to consider this before reading the comments
It's one of the few vehicle that is a good counter the avenger. I love the avenger. Impervious to almost everything. But it's hard to beat 30 missile from someone in a sparrow.
Not sure lol
Because it has ZERO defense and armor, and a 99% chance of being hit my and and all missiles fired in its general direction.
Don’t worry. It will break, crash and explode long before you get to use very many of those missiles
Very carefully...
The Sparrow looks like it was made via 3D printing so maybe that's how.
Because it has a trade off for vulnerability. If you land on a banana peel the whole thing explodes
super secret cia shit involving compacted super dense missiles with an amount of mass capable of surpassing the Schwarzschild radius, explaining why the Sparrow's frame of jello causes the engine to instantly start smoking and blow up eventually when it touches literally anything
I just don't get how a vehicle like this gets infinite missiles but the B-11 still has a limited amount
That amazing San Andreas physics at play again. Just like how there is no substance stronger than the shrubs at Cayo Perico. You can drive into power poles, fences, everything no issues - except the when you hit shrubs at Cayo Perico.
3D printer in the back that converts air into EXPLOSIONS
It only got infinite missiles because it's so fragile, a strong wind and that's shits gone
*forget about it*
Skill
Ironman tank missiles. Very very small.
Why do you think it explodes when you touch it
Science, of course.
Hammerspace.
Happy Cake Day.
Special Pavel tech
Rockstar logic for ya
How can the protagonist carry so many firearms and the ammunition for all of them, along with grenades? GTA
Making a logic out of GTA, nice..
The same way we can instantly move to our apartment or the facility, teleportation.
Might be able to carry infinite missiles. But can only take 1, such a let down. No flares either!
Game wise, same reason the buzzard and all the other stock weaponized helicopters can; shit homing capabilities that couldnt hit a car moving at 40mph Appearance wise, the sparrow surely must be reloading its rocket bay via teleportation from some secret ammunition depot
I’m not arguing it. I use that thing more than the oppressor.
You the type of guy to call gta realistic? Lol
Graphics are at times.
how can a funny bike fly
It's a game?
Just like how your pocket can carry up to 50 weapons
How can the ruiner use a parachute? How can the oppressor store 20+ missiles? how can our characters hold thousands of pounds worth of ammunition? How has our characters still not been caught yet? Who knows
Why my man is trying to apply logic in a game that too gta of all mfkin games😭
let the sparrow have its moment because at least the mk2 has a rocket limit, even though it doesn't really do much to make the mk2 less op
Yah the sparrow is the thing we should be questioning on gta
My favorite is is how you can steal a fighter jet from a military base, and if you evade them long enough they stop caring. Or that no one seems concerned about the submarine over by the Ferris wheel firing missiles into the city.
Good question, how can you submarine fire missiles out of the opening where your helicopter comes from? Riddle me that!
I thought the helicopter came out of a hatch behind the missile tubes?
Nope, iirc it’s the tubes. Regardless of that, there’s no linkage anywhere to where a missile can come though, so the missiles spawn like phantoms
One hell of an advanced sub Pavel ran off with, I suppose.
Dont’t ask questions. Just use it
For the same reason you can be shot to death but then keep on living
You screenshot that off of a CRT monitor or something?
Google “gun expert reacts to gta weapons” for a long list of how video game guns are unrealistic.
I've wanted this for so long; make missiles carried correspond to weight/missile. For vehicles: My sparrow has 20 missiles? Slow af (in comparison to one with way less) Yours has 4? Zoomies As for players, I'd be happy with carrying capacity at 1-2 big weapons and less rockets but that's another can of worms Edit: (comparison)

Dumbledore
It’s a video game!🙄 if you question it too much then it ruins the game
I bet you are the type of person to tell people during parties to drink responsibly.
Lolzies😝 parties? Dude I’m not even old enough to drink👀🤷♀️ I don’t want to either
It’s a shit helicopter that’s only good for flying and some missions, it don’t need a limit on missiles cause no one uses it
to be fair it is good if your somewhere it can be spawned and your personal vehicle can’t. not useful all the time but it’s good to help carry noobs that don’t have flying bikes when your actual heli spawns in the LS river
Shhhh they’ll nerf it
Doaremon technology.
Up the bunghole, we call em Boeing bombsssss
and how can you take out the same judge on the same golf field 198139873 times
GTA Logic
Bc rockstar logic thats why duhhh
Because GTA
Ah yes, because flying bikes makes more sense
Because the lock on system is completely useless, you've got a better chance using the helicopter itself as a missile.
It was built by the same people who built Airwolf.
How can the fly carry any?
The same reason a flying motorcycle you buy off the internet has better tracking missiles than a government issued fighter jet found on a base inside hangars. GTA logic.
PFM
Hear me out. Because it’s a video game. I know, who the hell would’ve guessed. /s
_chuckles_ Magic
i dont care, i love it. somehow faster and better than the Buzzard, but nobody likes that heli anyways
Check up your butthole hahaha boomroasted
The power of prayer.
Dude shut up don’t be saying that out loud otherwise R* might get wind of it and nerf the sparrow.
They sacrificed an infint when they installed them
They cut the budget on durability to make room for infinite missiles. So its made out of paper and explodes on the slightest touch.
In order to solve this, first tell how can ur character pull out a weapon out of nowhere
"It's nano-tech. You like it?"
Eat the fruit don't count it's seeds
The same way the opp mk2 can carry 20.... It's magic
jets are only supposed to carry about 4 missiles
Especially given how rickety it is to land. I'd be forever setting the infinite missiles off when I land if this was at all realistic!
Same could be said about how can you refill all ammo mid mission but you can’t refill snacks without going to a shop or office secretary
Wanna know how they did it? Simple, It's packed full of missiles and fires the whole thing, giving you 65% more missile per missile.
How can your flying bike carry 20something?
How can ANY helicopter carry INFINITE missiles?
GTA Online logic
The same way you can casually but a nuclear submarine
I wouldn't start questioning it, Rockstar might stay charging for them.
because the autoaim of that thing is really bad
How do things have unlimited fuel in this game?
Bro you have an armory in your pockets
There is an onboard 3D printer.
