If that first stunt landed a small precision it would have been better. The second was nice. The third is possible without ramp. I've seen two people done it before. I forgot who :P

I know it is possible to land on the building of several natural ways. But without ramps I do not think it is possible at the  place where I have do the bump, I need proof :P  .  I'll try to find better if i have enought time..

Raffal, the first stunt isn't so amazing that it feels like it was worth putting a new object into the game. The second one is cool, but it doesn't really "absolve" it from feeling off. That roof has been landed naturally to the precision by GTAVStuntMen, so landing it with a content creator ramp makes it look like the easy way out. Finally, the third stunt doesn't need a ramp :P.

Sorry Raffal, the first one looks rather easy so why even bother placing a ramp. The second one is indeed a packer replacement, but since we have no packer it's just adding a ramp to land a rather easy stunt. And yes the third one is already old without a ramp by doing a double bump. Trying to do it from the highway literally adds nothing if done with a ramp.

So the challenge still stands, but it's actually quite harsh to ask such a thing because you won't convince me. The time you spend doing ramp stunts could have gone into landing actual stunts.

-Yes before the updates of hell when gliding worked 100%
- Yes it is easy stunt. As I said this is an example, and it is not because a  guy  land  the top of a stunt,  we have no right to to land the building otherwise.

but since we have no packer it's just adding a ramp to land a rather easy stunt.

-There a packer, but like gta IV is imposssible to use. and as I've said, yes it is an easy stunt. it does not mean that all Ramp2bumps are also easy
-does not believe that I took a long time for these stunts. In an hour I have not done a lot of natural stunts. And it does not surprise me that you is not convinced .. I do not think only  one guy can change the ideas of a whole community in a day. It will happen little by little over time I hope. When most people want to do more, when the spots will be repetitive or very rare. Or even when the PC version will be released hacks can change the mentality.

I hope that idea will never set ground here (those ramps). The 'ramp mentality' is not something you want to have or should be strived towards. If spots get repetititve or very rare that marks the end of a game. Which will not be reached soon. And because the packer is impossible to use (it is in IV though...) it's just like there is no packer at all.

And don't take my words out of context/too literally. The thing about spending time on actual stunts was not a literal towards how many minutes you spend into landing these three easy stunts. And the day this community/forum accepts these placed ramps as 'completely fine' and I see them pop up in every single video I'll leave this place. Then this forum has no right to exist anymore. So just stop it. Do whatever you wish but don't think anyone will be impressed. It's really the opposite of finding a clever way to do something, because there nearly always is a way around using ramps. The only exception is a ramp2bump, which frankly is pretty dull with so much other stuff to do.

EDIT:// And can you please stop using color coding? It's rather annoying to look at.  :wacko:

The packer was actually a ramp in IV. You just couldn't get to the base of it, but placing it right after a curb could make you reach it ;)

Anyway, do whatever you want. It's more like a waste of time right now.
