I'm so loving tired of 1 in 3 people being invisible in every lobby now. It's ridiculous and the fact that pistols lock on further than LMGs and that fact that you constantly spawn exactly where you died. It's stupid.

Think the glitching thing is way less common than most people think. Was camping out by LSC for a while and 1 person came there in a 15 minute time span. Spent more time trying to snipe helis than pubbies getting into the garage.

Also haven't noticed anyone going invincible or invisible.


Got nearly 10 levels up trading races, it's ridiculous how fast that goes. 3 races of 3 laps and another level added. Doesn't even matter if you win, just start slow and end quickly.

Its pretty sad that it seems that no one is playing the other modes anymore it seems. I really like Crooked Cop, but every time I try to play it, it only matches me up with one other person.


Yeah, it's a shame. I genuinely have laughed the most with two groups of 3 people ramming into each other and inventing the most insane escape routes trying to get that package delivered without being killed.

Also the mission where 3 fractions need to steal a truck that's blazing down the Senora highway is good fun.

And the Top Fun 1 & 2 missions too.

I've had to learn to be an rear end in a top hat in GTA:O, much like I had to do in DayZ. By default I assume people won't kill me for some reason, but even when I find someone that is being friendly, the second I turn to run to my car I get pumped full of lead. This disappoints me since there's so little content right now around co-op play that I just wanna drive around and be bro's with internet strangers :(

Edit-Yeah, I guess I should join up with you goons instead of relying on my workmates since they never play.

I do the same thing. Why do people have to shoot me for driving past them. :(

The spawning right next to someone thing pisses me off the most. It just means that you will be gunned down again when all you really want to do is get back to your car and get the hell out to gently caress around somewhere else.

Just change your spawn option to whatever not last location is? I think you can choose to spawn at your crib.

Whats with all the Vacca hate all the sudden? Its easily the most cost effective car in the game, no other car delivers the same performance without breaking the bank when you crash it into the river or some jackass blows it up. Sure you won't win any races with it, but that's not the point of owning a Vacca.

There are a bunch of cars that easily matches its performance and are cheaper, like the Coquette and the Carbonizzare.

MY LIFE FOR YOU!
So I have found out a new favorite car which I don't think is customizable unfortunately, being a police vehicle. The Police Transporter, aka that police van, is really freaking fun, and pretty easy to get. All you have to do is get a 3 star wanted level up north and kill the single guy standing at the roadblock with the spike strip and you can steal yourself an amazing vehicle. I went on a half hour long 4 star wanted level cop chase in one and the worse thing that happened was all 4 of my tires got shot out. It seems that the windows are bullet proof, and I took at least 15 close range shotgun blasts without it exploding. The only reason I died was because I decided to get out and make a last stand.

The only way to get shot in the Police Transporter is if any of the doors fall off, opening up a clear shot to you, and through that little gap in the front window. The biggest issues is it's not very quick at all and if you're the driver, you can't shoot directly out of the passenger door.
It's great for locking down a LSC, just drive it into the garage door and for the most part no-one, not even cops, will be able to shoot you. Players will have to explode you out of the way.

Police Riot is great too, takes so many stickies to blow up that I've never actually had one blow up. Love ramming people's cars and blocking them in a corner as they try to shoot through the bullet proof windshield. Of course then they try to sticky it and just end up blowing themselves up.

Only thing that could make it better is bullet proof tires, but it still steers fine with 1 good wheel.

It would be super cool if the end-of-mission random selection thing would start including the various missions you ordinarily have to wait for a phone alert for. As it stands it's hard to keep up continuous play of things besides race/deathmatch/survival/parachuting.

Finally got sent to bad sport hell, though I haven't been kicked from the same session I was already in. And I receieved the 5% off bonus for being a good sport only 30 minutes before. And the only reason I got sent was for blowing up 2 vehicles with a tank that I stole from someone. Either I just happened to reach the limit with those 2 cars, or Rockstar has a "weighted" system where destroying cars with certain objects (aka tanks) gets you to bad sport more easily.

Oh well, just gonna gently caress about for the next couple days.

There's definitely different levels... blowing up poo poo near LSC seems to rank higher. Ditto the insurance place. Stickying anything is frowned upon. THe more stickies you have down seems to hurt too

The class needs to be set to muscle, which is rare. Almost all races I get into now are super or motorcycle.

Currently, all races count for all classes of vehicles. You don't need to race muscle cars to get unlocks for yours.

I don't know how to break this to you, but most of the male PCs look pretty much exactly like you. Waiiiit, a game full of Charlies would go a long way to explaining GTA:O actually.

Even though someone mentioned that you doesn't matter which class you race in for the unlocks, I still wouldn't mind doing some muscle car races since they never come up. If I try to host one, people either leave or spam me with SPORTS!!! messages.

If you're on PS3, add mr_dread for muscular cars or whatever other oddball races you want to run.

Glitching money at the main LSC is like sliding sometimes. You jump from world to world and while there are some differences things are generally the same. Then one time you land in the world where there are people in different crews camping LSC with tanks and everything has gone to poo poo.

I have some vehicle questions that I'd like some input on.

Are there any motorcycles worth having besides the Bati 801RR and the Sanchez?

I have a BF Injector and a Karin Rebel, is the Injector worth hanging to? Or should I get a Sandking to replace everything for my off road needs? I feel like the Rebel is a lot better off road and the exterior mods are a big plus too.

Are SUVs worth having either? I have an armored Baller that I currently use mostly as cover but I'm thinking about selling it and armoring one of my sedans.

Which leads me to my last question. I have a Jackal and a Felon. Keep both?/Sell one?/Sell both and look for something else? I think the Jackal is a lot faster and better handling car than the Felon. The Felon looks a lot beefier and might be worth armoring up to replace my Baller.
