Well that's loving annoying.

I asked: for CDKeys, does anyone know of a way to get them to work on US accounts? They're UK cards, and I thought I'd be crafty by pointing my VPN to London and redeeming the codes but it recognized my account as US and redirected me to the US site. Is there any way around this?

Also, for those of you shopping there, the Great White card is actually a better deal than the other ones for some reason. Buying 8 of those instead of the Megalodon card gets you 10 million instead of 8.

Many people play on what are known as "consoles." These pre-configured gaming systems often feature added security measures and are not as easily modded as Microsoft Windows. Users who choose consoles are left with the choice of either grinding for the real-world equivalent of $3 an hour, or paying Rockstar to enhance their gaming experience. Suck my dick.

I find it weird that they put the orbital strike into the game considering there's such a rampant hacking problem on PC. It just seems perfectly tailored for hackers. I mean, obviously they don't give much of a poo poo because people like that guy still buy shark cards, but every time my friends and I get blown up by one and respawn immediately we just shrug and continue on like nothing happened. It's a minor inconvenience at best. It makes no sense why someone who actually earned (or paid for) the orbital strike capability would waste it by blowing up pubbies in freeroam, and I'm almost certain every time I get blown up by the homing strike that whoever did it hacked to get it or received hacked money to get it. That said, even if it wasn't a hacker that killed me with it, I still get probably more satisfaction out of it knowing they wasted almost a million of their hard earned cash to blow me up than they do by blowing me up with it.

The fact that it has a 48 minute cooldown makes it not that great a griefing tool.

Also, on consoles at least, there’s an achievement tied to using it once on another player, so that would be the only reason I’d blow that $ on a random pub.

It's an honor to get hit though. Someone with a limited amount of money used a chunk of it just to kill you once.

Modders can just blow you up as many times as they want anyways.

Christmas outfits are back in the game, as well as festive bodysuits which are susceptible to the old office-telescope glitch, allowing weird outfits like these


Save desired clothing as an outfit without the mask, then equip your desired mask and run past your telescope spamming E

Once you get into the animation of using the telescope, you need to cancel the animation using your movement buttons before you actually look through it

If done correctly, your character will just be standing next to the telescope without wearing your desired mask. If you move far enough away from your telescope, your mask will load back in - the idea is to use your context menu and change into your 'desired clothing' outfit before you move away from the telescope.

If you're now wearing your desired clothing with your desired mask, remember to resave your Outfit.

You can buy hacked funbux on console too. The prices are much worse, but still less that 10% of the best Shart Card deals. (hacked PC money tends around 1-2% of shark card prices)

wow those final doomsday heist setup missions are a bitch.

The juggernauts that take 2 or 3 rockets to the face, the loving barrage that can't handle a slight ramp without flipping over 12 times, using that ballista vehicle you have to stop every couple seconds so the passenger can take a shot.... That poo poo was annoying.

Is there a way to remap the key bind for shooting with the Deluxo? I'm on pc. When flying around, both hands are on the keyboard, and so far it looks like the only shoot button is right mouse, which is a pain. I've looked in the key bindings, and experimented with a couple of options, but none seem to affect how this one shoots.

I just went ahead and did the gta v/megalodon combo in the US just fine. It wouldn't take my paypal at first, but then I went on a VPN and it went through. They emailed asking for a picture of photo ID to verify it before putting the purchase through.

The Great White card is $9 so I was thinking of doing what you said, but it's for the PS4. The PC one is 16.99 compared to $37 for the Megalodon combo.

Several goons have. I haven't and I won't name names but their experiences have all been fast, pain free and went beyond their expectations (in that they received more money than was advertised).

It's not without obvious risk, of course, as you have to surrender your account for the process. Console would work the same. You can lean on the knowledge that they have more money to make from doing a good job than stealing your worthless video games account.

e: They also use injection methods that they've either developed themselves or got through back channels. These are not publicly available and are not easily, if ever, caught by rockstar.

Haven't used the second character much but might just so I don't have to look at my dumb juggalo face any more. Holy poo poo I took off the makeup the other night and he is just ugly as gently caress- tiny squinty eyes, bad mouth, etc. I put that poo poo back on to cover up lol

I know the "bank" is accessible to both and that rank/property/unlocks are not. Do license plates transfer between both or are they unique to that slot? Is there anything else to consider or is it really like starting a new game? I think my alt is like 10th level

Why do you have both hands on the keyboard? WASD + Ctrl & Shift are all you need to steer it. Your other hand is for mouse aiming the Mk II Revolver with JHP's out the window at people.

Basically, hackers made hundereds of modded accounts before the platform transfers were stopped. They get a little more expensive every month as there are fewer of them as time goes on. Rank 250 w/ 500m and all unlocks is going for about $250 for PS4 and $125 for Xbox. On PC that would be about $50.
