It also doesn't work if you buy anything for the car then go to sell it, i.e. you have to drive in then sell straightaway. Also not sure if the method is different on 360 as I know the stores work differently...

I was doing the Sandy Shores Survival earlier and when I died around wave 5 I noticed one of my random team mates was glitched inside a building where he could shoot people but couldn't get shot. in the next wave I kept a close eye on him and it's hilariously easy to get in there and finish the whole survival. If you go to the 24/7 shop that you can enter nearest the train tracks, you can use the little cacti on the right of the door to hoist yourself up into the glitched roof area. Just did a youtube search and found a video of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JFJAOp9ImUs

I'd be careful with that money exploit further up, you might get dunced permanently or worse for it once Rockstar catches on. I imagine they have access to everyone's transaction records.

Can you throw tear gas grenades through car windshields/windows? I mean if you're outside of the car and you want to toss one into someone's car. For, y'know, reasons.

But look at it this way: everyone can boost, the GTA forums are 99% threads about farming or making faster money, and every time they think they deal with one glitch more are found that everyone promptly does.

If they didn't want me to exploit glitches they'd let me buy their stupid shark cards, which was my original plan. But it's been over a week now and they're still not up, so gently caress them.

Looks like some compensation for people who have played since launch : http://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/51565/grand-theft-auto-online-half-a-million-gta-stimulus-package-this.html Copy/paste from above : Money in the Bank Given some of the recent technical issues during these first days of GTA Online, and now that things are starting to look much smoother (touch wood!), we are planning to provide a special stimulus package for all who have played or will play Grand Theft Auto Online this month. We will be dropping a cool half a million GTA$ in the GTA Online bank accounts of all players this month, starting as early as next week. ‘Don’t Spend It All in One Place!’ In order to keep the current worldwide in-game economy balanced, we will be providing this GTA$ to players via two deposits of $250,000. We will announce specific dates as soon as possible, but are currently hoping to be able to make the first deposit by the end of next week (after we’ve confirmed that issues causing game progress loss have been fixed) with the second installment to happen by the end of the month. For players who experienced cloud server errors, connection issues, and lost game progress and characters in these first days of GTA Online, we hope this GTA$ helps to facilitate a fresh start or makes your continued life in Los Santos and Blaine County extra sweet. Below are a few more details on how it will work. Stay tuned for tips on how to make the most of GTA$ cash, info on ways and places to earn more cash fast, as well as updates on all the new GTA Online content additions we’re working on for this fall and beyond. You must play or have played Grand Theft Auto Online at any time during the month of October 2013 in order to qualify for the GTA$500,000 deposit in your in-game bank account. Players will first have to install a forthcoming GTAV title update which we expect to happen next week. That title update (1.04) is expected to fix the remaining instances of issues that have caused vehicle purchase loss and will also enable the functionality through which we’ll be providing this GTA$ stimulus cash to players. We will announce at the Rockstar Newswire when each deposit is made. Each of the two GTA$250,000 deposits will be made by Rockstar and should automatically appear in the in-game GTA Online bank accounts of eligible players. Beyond downloading the forthcoming title update mentioned above, there should not be any additional special action required by eligible players to redeem.

So at Level 50, LD lets you call Muggers onto people in free roam. $1000 well spent for those shitbags that camp outside LD Customs downtown and shoot you when you drive out. Called them 3x, worked every time. I'm mad at video games.

Got a 5k bounty on me from carjacking last, decide to do a runner for the airport in some sedan. At least 3 guys are chasing me within a minute, one of them was actually catching up, I think his name was godshaft or something similar. I quickly see why, he's in an Adder. I start throwing sticky bombs out the window and trying to blow them as he drove past, and failing. Awesome little chase ensued, ending with him slamming into me as I try to corner, sending us both into uncontrollable spins. He throws and lands a perfect sticky on my car while we're both still spinning, which killed me for the bounty. I tried to send him another 5k as a bonus for how awesome that was, but the game wouldn't let me, which sucks. I've also managed to spend 1.16 million of the 1.2 million I've managed to make so far, heh.

I don't know if this was already posted but if you complete Lester's police job where you have to blow up the police vehicles , keep the car then sell it after the mission it nets you around 11,500 ish unless they changed it. Helps lower people get some ok cash.

It's sometimes really small (Elegy! ), and sometimes just vanishes or reappears for no reason. But at least by dropping the 25k on it, you've now unlocked it for free on every vehicle you take to LSC in the future, so it evens out.

Does anyone know where I can find a delivery van? The kind that The Lost have. Also where your crew emblem goes on it? I'm kind of disappointed in general with how the emblem appears on cars. Just a relatively small stamp on the hood. I was hoping it would take up the whole thing.

Dinotron posted:I'm really getting sick of all the overly aggressive drivers in racing matches. I'd be willing to start a Goon racing crew for PS3 if anyone would be interested. Traffic off, clear weather, no ramming or otherwise acting like an asshat, etc. Just help me come up with a crew name and I'll post it in the PGS thread. I'd be really interested in this. I can't stand bumper cart racing. I want races to be skill based, and there are way too many noob-friendly options that punish you for being in first and reward you for having an early crash (slip streaming, rubber banding.) In pubby races, I usually end up first if I have a clean race, or last because I was run off the road, rarely in between. One thing I do enjoy is traffic, though. As long as the lag isn't too bad, I feel it adds an extra bit of challenge and skill requirement, and it keeps me on the edge of my seat as I cannot simply memorize the track and rely on muscle memory. I'll race with it on or off though.

Should I trick out a sedan/SUV I'll conceivably have to carry goons in, or only worry about finding nice cars for myself for racing & free roam? I don't know what the long-term plans are for free roam or using your own car in missions.

Los Santos Customs upgrades: Is there a disadvantage to the turbo upgrade compared to the transmission/engine upgrade? They all improve acceleration, but the turbo upgrade has the largest increase in the bar while at the same time costing much less than the other two. Also, I notice that you can max out your acceleration bar when in Los Santos Customs with just a turbo upgrade on some cars. Would upgrading the transmission, even though there is no effect on the stat bar, improve acceleration further? Again with acceleration, I notice that this stat in particular is drastically reduced when looking at your car stats in a race with custom cars vs when looking at it in Los Santos Customs. I assume that, since this is GTA, there is no reason to put any thought into it beyond buying all the most expensive upgrades to maximize performance and it's best to ignore all other details. I just wanted to see if I was missing something.

Sandy Shores is probably the easiest survival mode anyway. By the red building where an armor spawns there's a dumpster to use a cover, surrounded by three walls and a roof. It's pretty much shooting at ducks from there.

I find Boneyard to be pretty easy because of the trailer next to the wall. That dumpster in Sandy Shores did not like me. God I hope Rockstar doesn't take out those places, though. You can still be killed in them if you're not careful, and people who aren't in secure posts just drop like flies in every game I go in.
