This patch didn't fix glitching into garage did it? I can't get the drat riot van into the garage at Weazel Plaza. I have it set up like this:  And everytime I walk backwards and get into it all I get is This Vehicle cannot be stored. Edit: Annnnnnnnnnnnnnd finally got it to work. Pain in the rear end.

KennyLoggins posted:This patch didn't fix glitching into garage did it? Make sure you're as close to the door you're getting into as possible too, because the glitch seems to be based on speed of entry to the car, beating the animation to walk through the door as it opens. That's why you knock the door off.

Reb posted:This is what happens when you limit crews to 300 people. I don't think KROO even has half that number? I switched over to Stairs USA INC, as even though they are a US crew, and the second crew to be made for SA forums, they still have more active players during our prime times... Yeah, the 300 limit seems arbitrary, also KROO is cross platform so it dilutes the player pool even more. I asked to be let into Mountain Crew in the hopes of more player coverage when I am on, but I havent had it accepted yet. Edit: just checked again and I'm in

coyo7e posted:^^^ Fully modded Schafter is 105 and change. You don't need to get it in again. When taking the car out on the phone with insurance, mash the button to select the car before it's even visible. As soon as it goes through, access the money store and then cancel out. Take another random car out of your garage and back in. If you succeeded, you should have 2 of the vehicle you want, one insured and one not. I've done this first try with both a Buzzard and a taco truck.

coyo7e posted:The trick I found is to maneuver whatever vehicle, so the driver seat is pretty much directly in the middle of the garage door. I drove my riot straight into the door just a few feet to the right, and got it in first try. I failed a few times after insuring it, but again set it STRAIGHT headfirst in, without a door, and got in after a couple of small adjustments. Getting it insured now and it seems like the picture I posted which I saw on GTA forums seems like the best way so far. I've done it twice now since posting.  This car fully upgraded nets $117k. The older Oracle gets about $110k and the Schafter is about $108-109k. KennyLoggins fucked around with this message at 01:45 on Nov 6, 2013 |

Top Hats Monthly posted:Having an engine flameout is worse than annoying. Why do my engines keep going out? As far as I can tell I'm not getting shot at! Also online rules! Probably not the problem you're having but I kept wondering the same thing due to continually forgetting that rather than merely throttling back, hitting L2 actually cuts your engines completely.  This would have been much less embarrassing/hilarious if it hadn't happened most recently after I just got done wowing some friends with a bunch of low-altitude city centre acrobatics, only to unceremoniously dump my fighter on top of an overpass for no reason at all.

The thing i've found with crews is if you 'invite crew members' it will invite any members from your crew who have switched over to another one. Maybe we should create new ps3 and 360 crews for goons who are still playing the game and do not intend to quit anytime soon!

Sorry if this had been brought up before but this is a huge, fast moving thread: I've run into two missions in a row that recommend stealing a helicopter, but when I go to the heliport and the airport they don't spawn. Is there some special place I'm supposed to go for in mission helicopters? I did notice that Lester can locate one for me, but it doesn't unlock for another ten or so levels.

Dumb question of the evening from myself. Someone earlier mentioned going "off the radar", how does one do that ? I love this idea of sticky bombing the docks garage for the Simeon missions. I haven't unlocked the stickies yet, but I can park my personal vehicle in the way. That moment they stop and go "huh... wtf...?" I toss a grenade. And is there any official FAQ for the finer aspects to the online portion of this game ? 98% of this thread is "how to fit X vehicle into garage" and crew chat. I was looking at my stats and I saw "police training", no clue what it is.

I've been addicted to racing for almost three days now, it's been getting out of hand. My brother (not a goon) pulled me into a win trading chain on Criminal Records and we pretty much unlocked everything over two days that you can unlock through races, though I don't have a full garage yet. I think my favorite class to race are the classic sports cars, they're like muscle cars on crack. I slapped a metallic torino red paint job with race yellow pearlescents on my Monroe and it looks almost exactly like the metallic Lava Red coat without having to get 100 slipstreams to unlock it. Personally I prefer the torino red base since it's brighter and makes the yellow "pop" more: With my digital David Arquette:  If anyone on XBL wants to race/run missions/stomp pubbies together hit me up at TehRen3gade (almost like my forum name but without the first "3"). I'm probably in a race as we speak oh god somebody stop me

You can hire the merry mayweather one to fly you there and parachute out. The problem with that mission is it opens at like level 24 or 34 or something. And it assumes that you have purchased a plane or chopper by that level. Which with the lovely income online gives you, is bullshit.

Rockstar is dumb and probably removed helicopter spawns from missions after creating the missions. If you’re in a mission where Lester will answer the drat phone and you’re high enough in rank, you can have him locate one for you. If you’re high enough in rank to have access to Merryweather’s pick‐up, call for that and jack the pilot. If you’ve purchased a helicopter, that works, too. Otherwise, you have to get lucky and have a helicopter randomly decide to land at the marina.

It's called Cops and Robbers, I believe, but it will feature users acting as police. You'll listen to radio chatter, investigate crimes, and chase down criminals, kind of like vigilante mode. Not sure if it will involve hunting down other online players though.

I thought it was just a label for whatever level you are on that particular stat. Like I have "Military Training" for shooting and "Ninja" for stealth.

Just tried the LSC exploit for the first time because gently caress this game, and I was able to keep my car after selling it but now it says, "Sorry - we don't need any vehicles right now." I have quit to single player and the XMB, but the problem persists. Is this new to the patch or am I just bad at making money? I also tried to do the garage door exploit to steal an Infernus and I got locked in some concrete room behind a garage door that wouldn't open.

Welp, I got booted from a game in the middle of purchasing clothes and when I rejoined, I can't move. I just run in place. I tried to give this game another chance, at least until I had gotten the "stimulus package" but now I'm done. Hours upon hours put into this character gone because I can't loving walk anymore. gently caress you and your lovely game R*.
