GruntyThrst posted:Man annihilators start spawning at somewhere around the high 30s but they blow. I wish flying in this game wasn't completely hosed. It's way easier for a level 1 guy to just lockon pistol headshot you out that it is to get those chainguns aimed anywhere near him. Random pistol shots and uzi bullets are deadlier than any other weapon shot at me while in a vehicle of land sea or air. Single headshot no matter my armour and pop, gone.

JAssassin posted:I did the same thing when I got a jet. Strafing run on pubbies ended with me crashing into a tunnel underpass that I was way too small to fit into. Flying between the buildings was crazy fun. I've gotta steal one again. I spend literally all my time harassing pubbies in the jets, I've become quite good at stealing the jets without getting any damage now. I did have an awesome dogfight with another guy who was in a jet he had a bounty it ended with him crashing into a mountain side. Duct is all fine and dandy but when do you start getting the missions that give you 20k a pop I want a pimp sports car!

Finishing them (all 10 waves) will net you ~20k and all weapons + ammo + heavy armor if you're good. (You keep the weapons, even ones you haven't unlocked yet in freeroam until you die)

blackguy32 posted:Yeah, after you buy an apartment and get the vehicles you want, there really isn't much to spend money on. So, we're less than a week in, and we've already gone from 'You'll have to pay real money to buy anything' to 'Check out all these grinding exploits that I hate doing' to 'I own everything after just three days. What can I spend money on?'. It'll be interesting to see how things settle down once they've actually got all the content running, and start rolling out the mission editors.

Enjoy this, until you get too many 'Bad Sport' points. That's pretty much mostly what I did until I got an awesome string of pubbie kills, and I got kicked into the bad sport club. Pretty lame, 2 real-time days that I can't play with friends or crew members, and stuck into the bad sport servers which have about 4 people playing on them. I understand why they did it, but when mercilessly killing pubbies over and over until they leave is fine, but blowing up their car is a huge no-no, it doesn't make much sense. Not a big deal right now when barely anybody has explosive weapons, but once most of the population have sticky bombs, I expect lots of these bad sport 'bans'.

My character disappeared 24 hours ago and hasn't resurfaced. No portrait any more on the social club website. I had an apartment, 10 car garage, and some really cool sunglasses.  Goodbye, gay cowboy. RIP.

Anyone else keep getting "kicked by other players" for no apparent reason while free roaming? This is getting more annoying than timing out at this point.

(You keep the weapons, even ones you haven't unlocked yet in freeroam until you die) Even just getting to wave 7 snagged me a machine gun and about 9k in funds. I'm definitely going to keep doing those. Doing the Industrial plant I tried going to the roof for the body armor. I'm pretty sure that's designed as a trap, because the cover is poo poo from all sides and the advantage of height means almost nothing when the NPC they throw at you have such excellent accuracy and high damage.

I wonder how they are going to handle rewards with user made missions, they are obviously not going to let that to the user since everyone would make their mission the highest paying one.

I thought once you deposited money into the bank it was "safe". I get that you lose money from dying, hospital bill I assume or something. But do you drop any of that on the ground?

I'm pretty sure that they mentioned somewhere that the most popular player-made missions would be vetted and officially brought in to replace less popular Rockstar-made ones (hence the like/dislike poll after each mission) over time. Presumably they'll be setting the payout at the time.

Rockstar has said that the game taking money from your bank when you die is a bug, you're only supposed to lose the money you have on hand.  They apparently haven't fixed it yet.

(You keep the weapons, even ones you haven't unlocked yet in freeroam until you die) Survival is cool for the weapons and all (even though they only last as long as the ammo doesn't run out), but it's a really poor time/payout if you're looking for cash. We get $25,000 per Base Invaders and we got that poo poo down to like, a 2 minute science. Banking half a mil after a fairly short play session? Yes please.

What's the criteria for kicking someone out of a freeroam game? Some jerk shot me out of my helicopter, so I exacted revenge on him and his friends, only to get kicked. Why would they even let you start fights with people if you just get booted for killing them?

Why would they even let you start fights with people if you just get booted for killing them? The "You've been kicked from this session" message is the general disconnect message. There is no other. You probably just lost connection. To actually kick people, you have to go and vote to kick them and you need more than one vote to get them kicked(I don't know how many, probably majority). The votes seem to last forever though.

I really hope my character comes back, but the portrait disappearing is pretty telling after 24 hours. Any goons on 360 got a mission train going? I need to grind out some cash. Sawake on 360.

So after leveling up my new character a bit I decided to buy one of the expensive apartments. Specifically the top one in this building downtown: Its got a pretty nice view of the vinewood sign and city hall.  Jon93 posted:Rockstar has said that the game taking money from your bank when you die is a bug, you're only supposed to lose the money you have on hand. I'm pretty sure I've read that is how it is supposed to work in free roam, and the bug was that you still lost money in deathmatch and missions. Edit: beaten to it.

Regarding apartments, which one seems like the safest one to exit from by front door or garage? Say a clever sniper feels like dropping you when you exit.

Had a odd bug after exiting the clothing store where the game spawned a second personal vehicle in the middle of the street. Also since I hit rank 8, I was able to redesign my character's look, which I am quite happy with how she looking now. Had a lot of fun with fellow 1000 - 1008 goons just tormenting random pubbies with a helicopter for a few hours today.

Is "hosting" a game hosting in the sense of "all these people are relying on my lovely internet connection" or "The host gets to choose all the option" Also, people need to get some drat headseats/mics. Its so hard to try and coordinate a group with goons when I have to use the lovely Xbox keyboard.

If no one collects the bounty on you it will eventually go to you. You can be that guy and wait it out in a store. Also I just can't find how to restart a mission on Xbox.
