MC Club contracts are double money and double RP for two weeks. You can do them in a friend or invite session and make maybe $50k every 15 minutes, which is not terrible and they're varied enough to be interesting for a while.

Is there much point, either you are waiting for everyone else to load or it's the networking taking all the time, like the difference between private session and public.

It definitely makes a difference to initial load times, although in itself it's not enough to justify buying an SSD.

That said, if you don't have an SSD at all then getting one is like upping your RAM in the early 00s was, the difference in performance is immediate and astounding and every minute you don't have one is a minute where your computer isn't whole.

So, yacht teleport is amazing. I abused it today to drop in on bounties, people running missions, etc. You can pretty much pop out on top of people already pulling the pin on a hand grenade. Then Lester teleport home, havok to yacht and repeat. I would happily pay yacht prices for this power.

Booted this game up after not playing basically since the hangers dropped.

First thing is Rockstar "corrected" my bank account by $400,000 (the exact amount that they gave me for logging in during a promotion)

Then I can't find a lobby where a modder isn't running rampant.

Really glad they do everything they can to stop modders that drop money but don't give a single gently caress about modders that grief.

I've just started modding in SP. Running World of Variety, World of Dispatch, and some other QoL things and it's pretty fun. Being able to go "Oh drat I wanna play with that car" and giving myself 2.2 billion dollars is nice.

Maybe I'll just get a mod menu for online and enjoy it till they ban me.

was it 400,000 or -400,000 because they use the same text to add and remove money, the difference is literally whether the quantity is a positive or negative number

because if you haven't played much since hangars, it could be that was actually getting your promo 400k

It said 400,000, but I had 400k less than last time I logged in.

I don't think I'd ever bother to put this game on a SSD because it takes up a ton of space and really doesn't have much in the way of loading screens beyond the first one.

If I play free roam the longest interruption is like a 5 second dark screen when loading a hangar or garage.

GTA5 doesn't actually require that much power to run. I was getting a solid 30 with High graphics settings on a GTX 750ti and 4GB of DDR2 RAM. Now that I've upgraded my CPU and RAM a lil bit I can get 60

Speaking of modding, is there anything that lets you:

1) Port your online character into single player along with customization options
2) Have vehicle mechanic/garage access like online does
3) Add something like Chinatown Wars drug dealing

Cause I enjoy the game mechanics of driving, shooting, etc, but gently caress me these missions are stale as hell and I don't give a poo poo about PvP at all. Basically I just want the neat poo poo Online adds in single player with more varied missions and such :(

I'm wondering the same thing, TBH. You could (in theory) use something like Menyoo to do a lot of that. You can alter your character model, voice, etc... and create/save vehicles to spawn at will. There are also some mods that add the online houses/garages to single player, as well as hangars and such.

Right now I have it set up where all the DLC vehicles are available in SP via Menyoo, and I can just customize them in there. Trying to get hangars to work in SP, then I'll probably add more houses or something.
