My apologies to the [STRS] dude who was in that big pubby lobby by himself, when I began singing 'la Cucaracha' to the tune of slowpoke Rodriguez, while reading off of the wiki page of random lyrics because I can't speak spanish at all. I got 4000 RP for it.

TheRationalRedditor posted:People sabotaging because they give up in standard is also really lovely, particularly on the more open circuits. Someone straying way off course over boundaries for more than 5 seconds should be auto-reset or DNF'd. Arbitrary spinouts that are traffic or latency assisted are absolutely the worst part of racing. The other day I was racing at an airport and I missed one of the checkpoints but just kept going. Started pulling ahead of everyone because of Catch Up being on and me technically being in last place. I didn't know the course and the markers didn't show up so I just started making up my own course and one other racer followed me for a while until he figured out I hadn't figured out some glitchy shortcut to 1st place.

Hahaha. I stole an Infernus to help some crewmates chase down a pubbie with a bounty, and I ended up in a game of head-on chicken with the pubbie. He hit the Infernus and popped straight up 50 feet into the air, coming down on 4 wheels behind me a few seconds later. It was goddamn amazing and now I want an Infernus to play Pubbie Launch and bomb around hills going full tilt into trees because it's too drat powerful for its own good.

I know this is a ridiculous complaint but I think my biggest problem with the changes they've done to missions with disabling the replay button and halving the payout on missions that have already been done is how sloppy they did it. New players will probably think the replay button is bugged or something. Greying it out and having some notification you've done a mission before and it will only pay half would probably help players who don't spend their time reading forums about the game when they're not playing it. Right now the system for doing missions from contacts is starting to look like a totaled car someone tried to fix with duct tape.

Lotish posted:I picked up an Annihilator for the first time and am learning how to use it. Is there a way to hover with a helicopter so you can just focus on aiming? It is a bitch to get something in the crosshairs with this thing. First Person view, use rudders to aim left and right. And it's nearly impossible to kill someone with the Annihilator.

Jesus christ. Liberating a tank is dangerous to your Good Sportyness. I nearly got Bad Sport Helled on me and LordofSPACE's tank and jet rampage. Pubbies always have cars that look like the common trash driving the streets so it's impossible to tell it's their personal car. No clown horn playing pink and green monstrosities because they gotta look "Sweggy" as some dude in a session said once.

My game loads up fine each time, but no progress I'm making is saved between sessions. Is this a known issue? So what the hell does this mean? When I log back in and it says I'm 35 I'm really 39? If I start accumulating exp will it keep adding up to my 39 total? Do I lose the levels if I keep playing at my "lower" level and it saves? Will my guns magically reappear that I bought and lost? What a useless reply.

I have a question re: surviving a bounty. I know it takes about 48 minutes (one 'day') before it expires, but what happens to the cash that was placed on me? Does it evaporate (I hope so) or go back to the crying pubby (lame)? Anyone know?

I generally don't do public free roams and do a lot of solo in invite only sessions, which will count for bounty time. You'll also have NPCs place bounties on you when you jack their rides, so they can be nice cash bonuses if you're a loner in free roam.

Also since the patch the vehicle permissions are not working, I have them set up as "crew + friends" and crew members can only access my car if I set it to "anyone". I hosed with the setting a bit but in the end "crew + friends" doesn't work for crew (haven't tried with friends)

Ron has sent me a few missions that I've successfully completed but whenever I call him the Request Job option is still locked. I'm pretty sure that's not supposed to happen since I'm rank 30 and Lester/Martin/Gerald/Simeon all readily offer work if I call them. Any ideas?

Here's what I don't understand about destroying cars and bad sport hell... If destroying a player's car is such a griefous (yes that's an intentional misspelling) then why allow it at all. I'm not saying *I* want it gone, I'm saying, if R* thinks it's such an evil that deserves banishment with cheaters and hackers, WHY is it a gameplay mechanic in freeroam at all? Right??

Just let players spawn any owned car in front of them with the phone. The mechanic and insurance company are cute the first time you call them, but it’s skeumorphism taken too far at the expense of gameplay.

Hey when I've played this I log on and heaps of people are on my map but I can't find anyone doing any missions or races or jobs, or barely any at least. I'll try to invite based on matching, playing with me, random, etc. I'll try and host. I'll try to find. I'll even hit "Join random" and it won't do anything. Someone mentioned that different lobbies will have different aiming set ups, I have free aim on. Are there less people doing free aim so more difficult to find them? Thanks in advance
