Wasn't there a bug/issue with some car that was supposed to be free during a past event not being free on PC? Because I think that's still around, I bought some cars and my alt account's cash has disappeared :laffo:

No trace in the transaction log though, but I assume it was one of the cars that are "free" on the ingame websites but actually it isn't.

Last freebie was the Hermes. Christmas day 2017 was the "free day". Was supposed to be free but if you purchased it before getting the ingame text, you got charged for it. Later got a refund for the amount you paid for it.

Per R* math it all worked out? I bought one at regular price(-$535k), then bought a second free one for 0 dollars after getting the text. I sold the regular one for half price(+$260k ish), and then got a refund for the full amount(+$535k) the next day. Yeah that sounds about right

If you didn't see the black screen (YOURE ACCOUNT HAS BEEN ADJUSTED BY -$15,000,023) during loading, then I agree something shady is going on. Good luck?

Nah it's not adjusted, I was just buying free cars on the alt and suddenly most of the money was gone. It probably was the Hermes because that one still shows up as free to me for some reason and I do remember getting that.

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

I want a nightclub where a motorcycle is a requirement for entry and the interior becomes the world's worst motocross track.

It's basically like that time a few goons took bikes into Vanilla Unicorn and we tried to ramp off the stage.

That might also have been the time we were proxy mining the hallway back to the dressing room to see how much air the strippers got when they came flying out the curtains..

Is there a cute office manager you can get it on with like Luis Lopez could at his club? My character is on a pretty significant drought.

The servers have been garbage for a week now, that might just bee a symptom.

Yeah the central servers have been having issues. The Job server was down for a while last night, and some of the dynamic images in the game have been failing to load, such as the objective pictures on the heist setup board and crew emblems.

If only you misers bought more shark cards, they could afford to update the servers, instead the original servers from 2013 are now struggling under the weight of the 95 million copies of the game out there.

They should figure out how to run this p2p so it doesn’t rely on a single server to bottleneck

The biggest reason I uninstalled this game is because it takes like 10 straight minutes to load that poo poo up into a server. And even then it might still fail. Otherwise I'd still play it from time to time.

yank your ethernet cable out for a second (or use session sweeper if you're on pc) when you're stuck in the clouds and it'll drop you into a session alone, then hit "find new session" and it should put you in one in a fraction of the time.

i haven't the faintest clue why this works.

oh and launching singleplayer first helps.
singleplayer to online takes twice as many loading screens but about half the total time.

I've been doing the ethernet cable trick to do solo sessions when nat check doesn't work(xbone scrub here)

I'll have to try this for when I get stuck in the new session loop.

I made the wise decision to go back to story mode instead of grinding I/E and coke runs. Does anyone know if you actually can influence the stock market by attacking vehicles belonging to a company's competitor (Logger/Pisswasser, AirEMU/FlyUS etc)? I'm not talking about Franklin's assassination missions, just regular sandbox play. I've tried blowing up some Pisswasser trucks, but it didn't seem to boost Logger much...

This guy seems full of poo poo only because there is no loving way in hell Rockstar is going to try to retroactively fix/change anything like consolidating businesses.

These are people who won't add new features to old vehicles, won't put armor on the Amored Boxville, released a reject Avenger as the Bombuska.... yeah they're not fixing poo poo.

There are very specific instances where you can min max the stock market in single player if you want to get each your characters $2 billion. Outside of that, no.

The official GTA Facebook page just posted a photo of four (apparently) EDM artists bracketed by "Los Santos" and "Summer 2018". Lots of speculation this is for a new radio station which will coincide with the launch of club management.
