Maybe I'm just dumb as poo poo, but how do I get into a freeroam with crew guys or even a mission? I got an invite from one guy and we did a few races then dropped to freeroam then he disappeared. I just wanna GTA with Goons and do missions and poo poo...

If the host votes for freeroam first you will drop into his game, otherwise everybody goes to their own sessions.

Not all the missions are each one too. I can't find Boneyard on the version of the map I am on.

I find guns are a much better investment than property. The difference between the micro SMG and the regular SMG is huge. The Step up to an AK is even better.

I finally found my first armored truck! Then I got a bounty put on me as a result. Also the cops knew it was me and gave me a 3 star wanted level even though I completely assassinated the driver of the truck. But hey, the most useful ability to have is Lester's wanted level removal :3:

I was in a lobby that was doing this poo poo same track, same cars. Somehow I ended up host, set it to rain, SUVs and extra laps. Most of them left part way through the race, hahahaha. I didn't even know you could race SUVs because everyone is always doing sports cars. Really wish you could race fire trucks or semis or something. Also really wish you could save them in a garage because ramming people with the semi-trucks is the most fun in this game besides helicopter jousting.

If you blow up people's cars, leave missions in progress, or TK on missions you get bad sport points. You need to wait it out basically and I think it lasts 2 days.

FYI shooting out someone's tires and murdering them is A-OK.

I highly suggest buying the apartment that costs 223 000$ it's near the helipad, marina, airport, ammunation and it's got a nice view (it also has the heist prep room) plus it's pretty cheap.

Also I was able to steal jets really easily online by flying over the hangar that has one in it (it's the one closest to the sea out of the 3) then parachuting down into it (it's important to land with your parachute as close to the jet as you can so that tanks don't have time to get to you), flying it straight ahead towards the marsh while staying real low to the ground until the cops go into search mode and then climb up so that helicopters can't see you and your'e golden ! This worked 4/4 times

That's what I do but one time two tanks rolled up on opposite sides of the hangar, aimed the turrets at me while I was jacking the plane, contemplated my existence for a moment before deciding to synchronize their shots and obliterate my being from the face of Blaine County.

Is this weird? Is this too weird? Do you need to sit down?
I usually quickly land my helicopter inside the hanger with the jet. If I do it right, I don't get wanted stars until after I jump out of the helicopter. Even still sometimes there's a tank right loving there.

You can fly a helicopter right into the hanger and not get wanted stars until you get out. Really easy to steal.

God bless random pubbie Spartan83744 or some poo poo. He spent three hours cabbing (literally in a cab) us to the jets. When we were all flying them he was getting some and landing them on the dirt road. He never spoke, he is a beautiful mystery.

Well look at it's name, then read your description of it. Sounds pretty accurate to me. :q:

Also, if you haven't talked to Lester online because you're too busy loving around, you really should. Soooo much crap is locked behind him. I'm level 50 now and there's a ton of poo poo that I'm waiting for phone calls to get unlocked now when it would have been a lot easier if I'd done it sooner.

Apt. 10 on Alta Street is the one, true apartment. It's got a great view of the bridge and way more interesting than the more expensive downtown high rises.

Who else thinks Motorcycles should be hung on the walls like BMX bikes? They're so compact it feels weird that they take up the space of cars instead of be folded next to each other, organized, or just parked/leaned against the walls.
