The Batmobile is insanely heavy, like if you hit a garbage truck head on it sends the garbage truck backwards. It's probably heavier than everything but the MOC rig. It also has a high center of gravity, so it takes some turns on 2 wheels. Furthermore,  In conclusion, everyone should buy one. Powershift fucked around with this message at 07:47 on Oct 30, 2017 |

Yeah, I know this is old news (like two years old, at least), but I still did   (https://gtaist.com/grand-theft-auto-in-real-life/) Now maybe I can find out what that weird purple thing on the top of my apartment building is supposed to be. Edit: the real-life building's address: 420 South Grand Avenue

Are the Ruiner 2000's missiles the same? I've noticed they're able to turn way tighter than usual missiles.

I just got back into this a week or so ago, but im a bit confused. When it comes to making money in this, what's the best way to go about it? just running jobs over and over? The resources online seem to be all over the place with info from different updates and such. I just got a High End Apartment, have around 300K saved up, but I'm pretty lost when it comes to the foreclosure properties and getting into I/E. Heists seem like the most money, but drat if people aren't real hit or miss when it comes to actually succeeding. For every Heist that goes well I have three missions that one dude constantly dies on or gets lost or something to fail.

Buy the cheapest I/E warehouse(cars) source cars, don't sell low/mid range cars don't get more than 32 cars in your warehouse Eventually you'll have all low/mid range cars and you'll only source high end sell the high end cars as soon as you get them to avoid going over 32 cars once you're established Source car -> sell car -> run headhunter or hostile takeover LSIA(it helps to have a hydra or buzzard for this) You can make $300k an hour. Alternatively, A $8,000,000 shark card is $100. It would take 27 hours grinding at $300k/hr to make $8,000,000. That's $3.70 an hour working a part time job in a video game. That 27 hours/$100 can buy 1 flying motorcycle, the bunker to hold the truck, the truck to put the missiles on the bike, and the bike missiles; With enough left over to buy 1-2 cool cars. You will be working Do not buy the motorcycle businesses or hangar to make money. Only buy the biker bar to hold your bikes and the hangar to hold your planes.

No. MC Clubhouses are for MC businesses, which are bad. Here's how all the various freeroam things work out. CEO Office: Gives you an office. You can then buy a crate warehouse (don't) or an import/export garage (yes) after getting a CEO office. All of the offices are identical except for location and price so don't feel the urge to buy an expensive one if you don't want to. Once you have both the office and garage you can go do i/e as powershift describes. MC clubhouse: Gives you an mc clubhouse (heh) and access to biker missions and purchasing biker businesses (coke factory, weed farm, etc). These involve Lester with a lovely voice filter calling you more or less nonstop and it's very difficult to get him to ever, ever shut the gently caress up. Avoid. Bunker: Gives you access to gunrunning missions and the bunker's manufacturing. The gimmick here is R&D, where you basically resupply your business so you can unlock 40 useless cosmetics and 10 really good weapon upgrades, one at a time, very, very slowly. You can also use this to make money instead. Less bad than biker, but A) that's not saying much and B) we all thought it was a huge money sink until... Hangar: Gives you access to smuggler's run, which is basically flying crates. This is the worst time/money sink in the game most likely because it's expensive, out of the way, and the return on your crate sales is awful. On the other hand you do get to fly a de Havilland Vampire every now and then. depending on how much you hate your life for grinding purposes, I'd get I/E first, bunker second, because if you get past the GTA$ hurdles of bunker research eventually you too can have a missile-armed flying motorcycle and explosive heavy sniper ammunition, but you'll probably quit the game before then unless you get hundreds of millions in hackerbux rained on you.

TheTofuShop posted:is this a Clubhouse? I don't see any warehouses for sale, or do these open up when I buy an executive office? You have to buy it through the computer in your office i think. I mistakenly thought you had the office, not just an apartment. So yeah, you need ~1m for the office, $1.5m for the car warehouse, then you can start making $300k an hour. Until then running headhunter/sightseer/heists is the way to go. a bone to pick posted:The flying motorcycle is loving awesome but be warned, it took me several months to actually unlock the missiles for it. It's also suuuuuuper easy to destroy your own and costs $20k a pop when you do it.

Psion is a fool and an idiot, but only because he didn't make clear that buying a CEO office opens up TWO types of car things. The office garage is just a big fancy personal garage you get on the same website you buy the office from, you'll get lots of phone calls about it but you don't want one until you're rich. The good one that lets you steal cool cars to make money is called a vehicle warehouse.

Just joined GTA Online. Got plugged by a random player, joined a couple of missions, and got my poo poo pushed in during Condemned and a free roam "keep the car for five minutes" events. Fun stuff so far, do we have a Discord? EDIT: Right in the OP, got it! EDIT 2: And now there's someone who's killing the entire lobby and setting explosions to go off. Mind banning these people, Rockstar? Not a good first look for a new player. Olive Branch fucked around with this message at 01:17 on Nov 5, 2017 |

No issues ever get fixed unless they threaten the stupendous amounts of money Rockstar are making from shark cards, so I'm afraid you're poo poo out of luck there. Generally things die down after updates and Rockstar patch up the existing holes, then pick up again when modders work out how to punch a new hole in the lovely last-gen-console netcode that was never designed to support the slapdash monstrosity you see today. Even this thread is broken with its mysterious phantom post, that's how far the rot spreads.

Not a good first look for a new player. this game has zero anticheat on PC and the most toxic playerbase in existence. as long as there are 12 year olds with hax and a hard-on you're self flagellating by trying to achieve anything in freeroam. if you're a dedicated masochist though, try this https://github.com/Dysanix/SessionSweeper, if a modder starts loving with you you can split to your own session in a single keypress before they blow your cash crop up or teleport you to the bottom of the ocean. whenever you join a new session check the playerlist for people with ranks in the thousands and k/d's in the hundreds. if you spot one make sure to duck out before everything starts exploding. its not foolproof but it helps.

Good strategy: send a mugger after the lowest level dude in the lobby, Almost always a good laugh and they only lose like $12.

I'm pretty sure it automatically puts you into passive when you're trying on clothes now. You can still drive in the door and pop the checkout lady in the head and close the store though I prefer non-lethal griefing. pushing their car into the store, putting it on the roof of the store with the cargobob, squishing it into a little ball. That sort of thing.

Earlier today I joined a GTA race, which was a square ice rink (that colored concrete) around Mount Chiliad and just a general FFA explodey gimmick. One race the host decided to disable custom cars to get rid of bulletproof tires. Apparently I was the only one to figure to get on the top of Chiliad and shoot out tires instead, which made people veer off the edge of the track to drop into oblivion all the drat time. Hilarious as gently caress, especially the Eastern European hatemail that I've got from that.
