So I'm flying a plane in freemode and decide to do a mission through the phone's quick job menu. When the mission starts my character spawns 6 feet off the ground with a parachute on and promptly splats on the ground and dies before the other players could even move. Don't do what I did.

cliche posted:Well, Rockstar, if trying to chop up a guy in my helicopter blades as he's frantically buzzing his friend's apartment door before getting stuck and causing an explosion that kills both of us and destroys everyone's personal vehicles makes me a bad sport, then I'm not sure I want to be a good one. Why can't there just be a checkbox to put you on servers full of people who want to play the game as god intended, which is with tons of loving around? It's fun to cooperate on missions with your team, and it's fun to be nice to everyone in freeroam, but doing the opposite of those things is awesome too

Hey PSN goons, if anybody's ever up for some racing I'm one of the apparently few people that likes it (PSN : TorakFade , crew Third Street Goons, have a mic but won't always use it) I am incredibly pissed at people who only choose the "Super" class (the funniest race I had was with giant, bouncy, plow-through-traffic SUVs) and treat all races like they're GTA races. I like traffic on, everybody can be good at driving on empty roads... I don't care about the rubber-banding help, I'm usually on 1st or 2nd place anyways  Driving clean laps is the best way to 1st position, and I noticed that when people try to spin you out/ram you off the road, they usually end up wrecking themselves if you know how to avoid losing control; I guess there's a physics "countermeasure" of sorts in place, because in free roam poo poo doesn't work that way. I only wreck out when people actually ram me into a fixed object like a telephone pole.

So Sandy Shores Survival is kind of a bitch, but there's a really good position behind the dumpster tucked in the covered bathroom entrance area of that little station in the center, not far from not one but three body armor spawns. Get a friend on the opposite side and they can cover the back alley and handle anyone who rushes the dumpster. In fact, I'd wager that staying on the side opposite the dumpster would let you solo the whole thing; it would just take some time because you have to coax targets into closing with you--there's not a lot of open ground like there is with Boneyard.

For Sandy Shores survival up until about wave #8 the best place I've found is one of the houses with a railed porch. You can sit and pop up without a problem until they start tossing miniguns and grenade launchers at you.

Also, sure, the Vigero is kind of a piece of crap next to a Sabre or Dominator or whatever, but at least it's loving slick:  The paint is actually matte midnight purple, not black.

Trip Report: Top Fun II & III are really, really fun. Pick them if you see them. Myself (XBL: Shock3h), Cake or Death and t0mm3h (Excellent goons all) had an absolute blast; If only we could get more Third Street Goons into the same game at once, it'd be amazing. It's not the highest paying, but as it's pretty quick and you'll be giggling like a schoolgirl every round, who cares?

The problem we kept having is the guy on the dumpster would sometimes be kicked out of cover and wouldn't be able to plug back in for several seconds, sometimes to terrible consequences. They have the best killing angle, certainly, but the dumpster just sometimes doesn't cooperate. On the other hand, the person across can be shielded from everywhere but a narrow alley opposite if they hang at the far back corner, unassailable by helicopter, and with a fast finger can perforate anyone who comes around the corner with impunity. That takes a while, though.

EDDIE__DINGLE posted:If your driving a friend's personal car at the end of any mission it will clone that car when you return to freemode. If that car had bulletproof tires and armor upgrades for instance it would be worth $25K at the nearest mod shop. :profit: Quoting this great advice that some people probably missed. Go and do this before it gets patched out! If you dont have the 25k needed for bulletproof tyres or youre tight with money, do the lester mission where he asks you to cause trouble with the cops. youll need sticky bombs because he gets you to blow up a riot van that takes a bunch of bombs to blow up. Anyway the car he gives you for the mission is a dominator with bulletproof tyres and you can keep it when youre done.

Also if you started a new character after the patch, you can pick up guns in survival mode after you reach the level needed to unlock them in ammu nation and get them for free. saved a bit of money by picking up a mp5 and combat pistol this way last night.

Free money anyone? It's horrible exploit time. Get expensive vehicle. Put tracker on it (I haven't tested if it works without but you may as well put it on and it makes sense). Slap as many performance mods on as possible to get it's value up, I think max LS will buy for is 50k. Go to LS Customs. Sell car, then IMMEDIATELY press the following button combo(PS3 version): Start-L1-X-X - you might want to practise this a few times first. This will go to the store, when you come back you will still have the car AND the money, and will still be on the sell prompt so you can rinse and repeat until you get bored or have more money than Jesus. There seems to be quite a lot of room for error, I've certainly messed up the buttons slightly before and not lost the car, though it may also be based on lag as I'm on WiFi and have had no issues. Just made my first million. EDIT: careful about buying a more expensive car to sell, got a JB700 for 350k and got told they wouldn't buy anything worth over 50k. Surely 350/10=35k?

It's too bad there's no pork pie hats and only fedoras, because otherwise I'd have a pretty good Heisenberg.

I've just been thinking about GTA Online and the slow cashflow and level progression. I was thinking about how just over a week ago, I was enjoying the fact that progression was slow and tedious because that would make my eventual awesome apartment and garage full of cars feel all the better and "well-earned". It legitimately felt like I was a criminal underdog crawling up the ladder. I was playing by the rules of the game. As far as GTA Online went, I was a law abiding inhabitant of the ecosystem at the same time as being criminal scum in the game's world. Then I learned of various exploits that would increase my cashflow by orders of magnitude. Pretty soon, the allure of copious amounts of cash, a beautiful apartment with a gorgeous view and a garage full of sportscars swayed my resolve to "earn" it all and I succumbed to the temptation. I have since exploited the hell out of this game and it's mechanics in every way I have been able and in ways that the developers most certainly did not intend, amassing a sizeable fortune much faster than any legitimate or "honest" gameplay would allow, owning the best apartment and a garage full of exotic supercars. Now in addition to being an outlaw in the game's world, I am also an outlaw for subverting the rules and restrictions the developers have placed in the game. It's pretty interesting that my arc is similar to what I imagine the arc of so many actual criminals to be. I gave into the temptation of fast money, at the risk of being punished later on for subverting the rules of this "society". I saw cracks in the foundations of the way the system worked, and being fully aware of the repercussions I decided to risk it anyway and lever those cracks to get ahead of those who were playing honestly. I am a true GTA Online outlaw! Pile onto that the fact that this is a game where you are an actual criminal and this turns into quite a mindfuck, but an interesting one none the less. Edit: And no, I didn't discover any of the exploits I used, I'm not trying to say "I'm so smart for figuring this poo poo out!". Just that my perspective on "earning" and getting poo poo the "easy way" was flipped on its head the same way it is for many people who end up on the wrong side of the tracks.
