Sorry I missed that. Anyone planning to hop on PS4 later this afternoon/tonight? If so, consider me down.

That's the first time I've ever played this game and just decided to go scorched earth on pubbies who hosed with us. We even had air cover.

I have highlights to post. :unsmigghh:

I'll probably be on at some point.

So the car-sourcing mission to fill your vehicle warehouse - the one where it's a car that's about to be used in a stunt jump. Every single time I've done one of these, as soon as the car leaves the ramp, it spins forward uncontrollably, landing on the roof causing a ton of damage. Pulling all the way back only ever-so-slightly slows it down, no where near enough to recover. Does this happen to anyone else? It's not supposed to be this way, is it?

On an unrelated note, this ghost-lady popped in and out of my office in less than a second. She wasn't invited. It creeped me out.

I dont even have a keypad, but doesnt driving w that simulate the analog stick so you can air-steer cars(and wheelies and such), or is that what youre trying and its just full-or-nothing?

Yeah I use wasd for gas/steering and the number pad for leaning. There is a wireless usb controller plugged in, but the controller itself is turned off. It's worth trying again with the wireless nub thing completely unplugged, I guess. But yeah, no ideas what's causing it. It's not a huge issue as it seems to be isolated to this one thing. Driving/jumping/etc otherwise seems to work fine.

Are there still money hackers going around, or did Rockstar manage to put a lid on this? Just wondering, because I need money, and I've seen people using teleport hacks during races plenty.

I haven't seen any money hackers, but I run into people spawning vehicles a LOT. One guy had piled tanks from one of the hill to the next. I see teleportation a bit. I'm not sure what rockstar is actually doing to combat them, but from casual observation I'd say it's not very effective.

They're still around. Do some google, I know at the least there's a popular public discord server dedicated to organizing money drop lobbies. It's bursting at the seams with 12 year olds but it does work

It's a lot easier to get 2 friends together than it is to get 4.

Apparently there's also a new method to cheese pac standard involving a helicopter that gets you the elite bonus, so 1.65m 4 ways

I'm one of the wealthy elite, so i don't have to do that repetitive garbage, but it's worth seeking out if you're one of those broke-rear end people working 6 hours for a motorcycle.

Is there a cap to how much gets shared with your CEO or president if you sell vehicles? Seems like that might be an OK way to "give" money to friends. Dip into your X80 bonds and the boss gets 90%(?) of a million dollar sale or whatever they trade in for. Couple of reps of that and that would launder a couple mil

It's not so much a raw complaint as much as disappointment. 4 man heists are great - but it's challenging for 4 of my friends to get together at once. Two people at a time is much easier to coordinate. So if there were additional 2 man heists that would have been pretty great.

I was about to suggest playing with goons then I remembered an irl friend uninstalled the game because he couldn't handle getting yelled at by a guy who "sounds like kermit the frog".

Pros: front spoiler
cons: doors open kind of outwardy instead of straight vertical

conclusion: car ruined.

I want to hear the "yelled at by Kermit" story, but I'm afraid it'll be a lot less interesting than it is in my imagination. That said - I've been keeping an eye on the discord and it seems pretty dead. I'll put more effort into figuring out how to hitch up in game with goons and perhaps my fortunes will improve.

edit-- effort exerted.

you might have more luck now you're in the crew. if discords still dead (rip) start a mission or something then on the "invite players screen" click "crew members" and send social club messages to anyone who's online.

The bumper options on the Torero are hot loving garbage. Only 2 front bumpers and both look awful, and the only rear bumpers are massive diffusers that totally don't fit the car at all. Damnit, Rockstar. You nailed it with the Cheetah Classic and then immediately dropped the ball on this :negative:

another game at nationwide arena. everybody keeps asking me if they can fuck the cannon. buddy, they don't even let me fuck it

Played car darts over the Alamo Sea last night one-on-one with somebody only to have a pubbie get placed on my team. He insisted on shooting for the five target every time, so I messaged him to shoot for three or four because all we needed to do to win was outpoint the solo player.

Turns out he only spoke Spanish, so I replied my simple coaching instruction in Spanish. He went for the five each time anyway.

In spite of his repeated failures, I had us in position to win a round just by landing on the 3 as the other guy would have had to hit 5 to tie and there was no way, but apparently we can't have that poo poo because DUMBSHIT SPUN ME OUT ON THE RAMP ON THE LAST ATTEMPT THEN KILLED HIMSELF. :ramsay:

Car darts is hosed because there's always that one guy on each team who has to be last so they spend half an hour in the loving air.

The tears when you do this and then just crash or knock teammates off though

Especially if you raise the score by doing so and using them as a bumper. :getin:

Edit: obviously do this only if the other team starts doing it

I'm just not feeling the Torero. The proportions are just...off. If it was just a tad longer and a tad lower with the rear wheels spread out just a bit more, it might have worked. Oh, and give it a better front wing.
