HaminLord Posted October 5, 2018 Report Posted October 5, 2018 While the phantom serves as the only purchasable truck in eclipse (I'm pretty sure correct me if otherwise) it serves no use what so ever. Roleplaying with it is hard and everyone who has it uses it just as a normal ramming car. The Phantom also has a glitch in which you can shoot through the back of it, for example, if I'm sitting in the passenger seat and shooting backward I can have protection as the bullets coming from behind me cannot pass the back of the Phantom while my bullets can. I myself got KOS, and DM so many times because of this glitch and not being able to do anything about it. Its a pain in the ass and in my eyes this glitch needs to be fixed or just remove the phantom. If u think otherwise please let me know. 4 1
farayan Posted October 5, 2018 Report Posted October 5, 2018 +1 people glitch abusing it all the time
King Tom Posted October 5, 2018 Report Posted October 5, 2018 +1 people abuse it and it's just stupid to have it in the game. 1
Shannon Posted October 5, 2018 Report Posted October 5, 2018 +1 Never see the phantom in game unless its the people going around shooting out of it which is not RP..... 2
Phil McGee Posted October 5, 2018 Report Posted October 5, 2018 I personally only use it for the CB chat. Nothing I like more than sitting at a rest stop having a laugh with the trucking community. -1 3

Of course you would -1 to this. Clearly the graceful art of sarcasm is lost on you. I'll also add your group attempted to mimic us by buying their own Phantom but just you were not as effective with it. I know we make it look easy but clearly it's not as easy as you thought. Stop being so sour because you lose sometimes. And their are 4 variants of trucks, should they all be banned? This server suggestion is grounded in salt, utter nonsense.

Dizzie Posted October 6, 2018 Report Posted October 6, 2018 -1. Removing trucks because people use them to ram you is not a valid reason in my eyes. It can have many other uses that you cannot be aware of.
Dizzie Posted October 6, 2018 Report Posted October 6, 2018 (edited) I don't know but I think I can read at a decent level enough to understand the title saying "Removing the phantom" rather than "Fix the bug". If I want the bug to be fixed? Yes. If I want the Phantom removed? No. Also, just because you don't see it for other purposes doesn't mean they don't exist. EDIT: I feel like this thread SHOULD be renamed to avoid misunderstandings. Edited October 6, 2018 by Dizzie Added another line to avoid spam.
Phil McGee Posted October 6, 2018 Report Posted October 6, 2018 (edited) I've used my truck for personal trucking delivery rather than renting one. I've helped people transport shipments. You think the world revolves around you? Just because you don't see it , doesn't mean it doesn't happen. So stop being so self absorbed. Edited October 6, 2018 by Phil McGee

Can u both please not have a fight. I literally made this post to discuss how broken the glitch on the Phantom is, please lest keep this a friendly conversation thank you.
Tom Whelan Posted October 6, 2018 Report Posted October 6, 2018 -1 I have the phantom and I love this truck. Also I havent used it in ANY shootings what so ever. Plain RP with it and from time to time I do trucking job while listening to the CB and have a good laugh as McGee Said, its hilarious 1
Zoloft Posted October 6, 2018 Report Posted October 6, 2018 (edited) I Believe it should be removed until the script is ready to be implemented to stop shooting out the back Edited October 6, 2018 by HiVe_Zoloft
Shannon Posted October 6, 2018 Report Posted October 6, 2018 (edited) @Phil McGee i only ever see you in the truck when you are going around shooting people... https://plays.tv/video/5b985ace95dbcba0ed/vdm-and-kos https://plays.tv/video/5ba55b1d4686ec678a/dm These are videos of you using that truck to shoot and ram people which isnt using your "truck for personal trucking delivery" notice how in both videos you drive in front of the people you're shooting as you know (due to the "visual glitch") you can shoot through the back of the truck while others cant shoot you back (videos were found on reports against him) Edited October 6, 2018 by Shannon 1

Get your facts straight. And in both of those videos I'm shooting from the side leaning out the window. Clearly you've been on the receiving end of a whooping and are just sour. You think somebody is going to record and report me for making delivery s. I'm the fastest trucker around as I use my own sweet fleet of custom rigs having a blast on the CB. Next it's going to be ban the hauler, postal trucks, bank trucks and all vans as people can shoot out the back. Should super cars be removed as people shoot through an engine block at the rear? 1
Shannon Posted October 6, 2018 Report Posted October 6, 2018 (edited) @Phil McGee 1. "Rejected Reports" i wasnt referring to the report, just the video of you adbusing the glitch (i dont care for whatever reason people are reporting you for) 2. Didnt say anything about ramming - obviously with any big vehicle you can ram with it (duh) 3. As i said, its due to a visual glitch. Im not saying i have an issue with people shooting through objects like engines or whatever, i have an issue with the fact you abuse this glitch so you can go around shooting people and know that they cant shoot you back 4. You need to learn better RP as using your work truck (which brings in one of your sources of income) to get into shootouts isnt very realistic Now this is a suggestion post, you're obviously hurt that people are suggesting to remove your protection against getting shot 24/7, but you -1 it so thats all the input we needed from you Edited October 6, 2018 by Shannon

Shannon Posted October 6, 2018 Report Posted October 6, 2018 Never said i had an issue with you ramming... Its a huge truck, ofc it can be used to ram people
ElisabethC Posted October 6, 2018 Report Posted October 6, 2018 (edited) Keep the conversation on-topic; and constructive regarding to the original idea. If you wish to discuss further, feel free to make a discussion post. In regards to the original idea, I'd like a bugfix a lot more than a removal. If it would be unfixable, a removal might be in order. +0 for now. Edited October 6, 2018 by ElisabethC
Levi208 Posted October 7, 2018 Report Posted October 7, 2018 +1 Remove it, it's never been used for any kind of quality RP and is just used to Kill and do driveby's often with -very- little excuse to even be doing so. And always the same kind of people going around in them, it's tiring getting your car shot up for no reason other than some other dudes amusement. This is glitch abusing and even banworthy in my honest opinion. 2
