Currently using the latest patch. I've got two stunts to land that don't need 1.10. After that, there's two big airs I'll need to use 1.10 for, so I'll probably revert for those.

and that means only single player for those two big airs (which also means = traffic, pedestrians & loading time everytime you fail). Gotta hate those problems unless there is a way to use 1.10 online but goodluck though!

I highly doubt this handicap is gonna set you lot back.  You guys are way too creative and innovative not to bust the balls of any other players just getting into stunting.  Not to mention some of you near 10+ years of experience, are still gonna land stuff completely unthinkable.  Just saying.

This is very kind of you to say.  Regardless, bike stunters have been given a highly notable problem.  The limits on achievable heights affect the entirety of motorbike physics in GTA V.  Big airs are relevant to the ability to wallride, because only relaxed gravity enables prolonged wallriding.  I don't stunt with bikes myself, so I won't say much more.  Consider the new restriction an act against creativity.

This kinda makes sense. I think the removal of gliding is gonna hurt people outside of GTAS tenfolds, seeing as every video out there is just bigair, bigair and more bigair. I don't remember a lot of people outside GTAS who were capable of pulling of sweet precisions and such.

We have gained leverage over the Machinima tossers, but it's still a punch in the gut.

I still don't think it makes any sense for someone who's not directly affected by something to tell people who are directly affected by something how they should react to that something. Even if you're trying to be encouraging and positive, just saying.

I loved wallrides in SA and VC videos, and I always thought it was a shame you couldn't do them in IV.

Now this just feels like a great racing game where they decided to remove all of the good tracks. You can still drive around but it's not fun anymore.

I will probably still buy the game to play it with my friends, so I will eventually try stunting. I saw myself doing some crazy wallrides like the one in your sig and it makes me sad to know it's not possible anymore.

On the other hand, doesn't it open way more spots to everyone? Instead of people flying around like birds, people have actually need to stunt to land those hughe roofs. Before it was like landing the highest roof there is with no problems at all, now people are going to land lower roofs so the higher roofs still have to be landed, they will concentrate more on technical stuff and so on...

That's an incredibly naive post based solely on bias, how does it open more spots as those technical stunts you speak of were still possible with gliding in the game, only (sometimes) less impressive looking from the contrast cast by the bigger stunts.
The difference is people are forced to stick to them instead of choosing the type of stunts they like to do which is not problem to you who like tech-stunts primarily but imagine if it was the other way around.
It's been said before in the topic, it doesn't just affect gliding but also wallrides, precision and even grinds as it makes many potential spots simply unreachable.
Covering huge distances by leaning back and holding your player upside down was just a small part of it, but regardless removing those method does not open for way more spots, it's the other way around.
