Try making your own? GTA races are frustrating though. It's pretty difficult to land rockets unless you're in 1st, because you can just fart them out if you see anyone behind you on the radar.

Had a good time racing with some cool folks from Awful Company even though I'm a poo poo driver/pilot etc. :v: Got a kick message when it tried to load up free roam though but at least I made more money than I would've grinding missions with the level I'm at.

What kills me is that should be a really fun mission. Being chased by cops as you toss grenades all over the place. Sounds like a goddamn blast! They should really just give you a shitload of them and then take them away after the mission. Instead you're being extra careful to aim and plod through things because you only get four of them.

Hey did you guys know you can do races drunk? You have to have pisswasser in your inventory. Then in the betting screen go to winning emote and drink pisswasser a couple of times. Your racing skill will change from street racer or whatever to drunk. I was quite amused when I figured it out. It isn't really fair racing a bunch of sober people though, I'd like to do some drunk races.

Cops Capacity is now technically the highest paying mission because the car you get from Lester for doing it sells for like 14 or 16k to LSC

not by a long shot. Mixed with coke only pays 9000$ but it takes me and my friend maybe 3 minutes at most. the best part is, When you start the mission trade cars with your buddy, do the mission in the other persons car. We normally blow up 3 cement trucks and leave 1 sticky planted on the last one and go meet each other somewhere. Once your close to each other detonate the last sticky. finish mission go back to freemode. When you spawn, you will have 4 cars, 2 duplicates of your cars plus your originals. We swap the duplicates back and go sell them. Make sure you don't sell the one that shows your car icon on the mini map. Since the cars are fully modded my sultans worth 99,000 every 42 minutes.

I wouldn't be wasting my 42 minute timer on a 14k car. It also works post patch.

Edit... Should also mention seems to work with any mission you just need to complete the mission inside the car. And it can be done with more then 2 people we had 3 and 4 people and as long as everyone was in a car that wasn't theirs, it would duplicate. It wont work on exotic. I would also recommend switching the car your selling, Only because repetition might raise red flags.

It may not be very fast, but it gets me to work and that's all that really matters.:colbert:


After tooling around downtown, I stumbled across a goon and some other person trying to kill each other. I at least hope it was a nice surprise for them when I turned the corner into their alleyway and tried to squash the pubbie.


I got blown up shortly thereafter, it turns out those things aren't very maneuverable.

Connection issues aside it's pretty dumb that "you got kicked" is the generic disconnect message.

Tried a bit of survival since I unlocked it and the AI does not gently caress around. We made it to wave 8, where 3 of us died immediately at the start. :stare:

Deathmatch with jets sounds really enticing but I need to up early in the morning, but thanks for the invite Lord of Space.

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.

Really? I was checking your player status every now and then to see if you dropped out of Clean Player so I could commend you, but it never seemed to change.



In other news, I just discovered that there's a Jet LTS match (Los Santos LTS) that supports up to 16 people for an 8v8 dogfight in the skies. Thanks to Slim Killington for joining, unfortunately most goons don't want to join a LTS match and we were only able to do a 2v2 (vs 2 pubbies that joined) but it was really fun. You guys should join this one if you ever see it pop up again. It beats the autoaim cover camp fests that are normal LTS games.

You don't have to power off, you can just Home -> Quit Game. Just have to do it before the next time it saves to the cloud.
