Never stay registered when you go AFK, especially as an MC. The daily utilities for the businesses are like 30k or smth

I don't believe you can be raided if you are not reg'd as CEO or MC.

So far that's true, BUT twice now after idling around, within minutes of starting MC i got the raid alert. Be alert!

It's kinda bullshit that some of the raid scenarios don't start until you get close to the warehouse or yellow dot, and some start killing product immediately. Guess that's the danger of keeping them all up in Paleto :(

The MC stuff I don't really worry about since none are huuuuuuge, what like $500-750k for a full sale in the other county? MC business to me is really just a bit of roleplay when I just want to drive up the coast and check on poo poo, buy supplies or run a couple supply missions.
I am a bit concerned though about the bunker and warehouses and now the nightclub. With multiple large warehouses and the Nightclub potentially holding 1-2 millions dollars worth of product at a time and taking a long time to fill to capacity, that's going to really suck when one gets raided and you're nowhere near it. Gone are the days of just stockpiling them to full and waiting for double $ sales. Do I now need to alter my play style to not start MC unless I'm up in Paleto? Wait to fire up CEO until I'm over in my warehouse neighborhood? Go back to doing 1 supply run and then selling it off so you never get about the 50% full threshold? I really don't want to bury myself in micromanaging timers and being paranoid over product that in reality is pennies. (fake edit: did the math and a full $2million dollar sale is literally %0.1 of my liquid assets)

I will admit that it injects a bit of rush, that moment when LJT calls and you know it's just going to be his standard 'Heeeeey you know you got a ton of ___ that neds to sell right?' but turns into Oh poo poo, I gotta get up there NOW and blast some motherfuckers! Some of the raids are missions I haven't seen before so that's also kind of refreshing.

I never get raided when I'm indoors it seems, so I don't reg until I'm where I need to be for selling/supplying something.

At the end of the mission, I lay on the button for the interaction menu. You can't get a phone call when you're in there, so I retire ASAP.

This is inconvenient if you have friends helping, but I never get raided doing this

Living the life of a trust fund juggalo is taking its toll on my fragile psyche. So much stress I forgot to buy a drat blimp last night. On the bright side I found the magic blunt in the night club! Next to the upstairs bar is a little alcove with some tables and drinks, one of them has an ashtray and if you sit it'll offer you a smoke. May vary with interiors, and need to have a p high popularity for it to spawn

Last time I got raided I used the CEO helicopter call feature, the 5k ride. That fast travels you to one of your properties so you can fend off the attackers asap. Don't know if it works on clubs or bunkers?

If by lately you mean five years now. It loads faster if you use the setting to load it into SP first always and then load Online, but it shaves like two minutes off five so it's still a bit.

The only point I was trying to make was that both games involve crimes, making people dead, blowing things up, exploring a free roam map, and sell missions which are much easier in 1716 than 2013.

is anyone else having a problem with the cocaine in the night club warehouse?

I bought a cocaine business, and did the initial setup mission. But, the cocaine bar(South American Imports) hasn't been filling at all. Is there something I need to do on the MC side ti get it going again?

Check your drivers and verify your GTA files, something might have corrupted. Otherwise, you might be looking at the first sign of a dying graphics card :ohdear:

As long as your MC coke business is open (you don't need supplies or anything) you'll be able to produce South American Imports in your nightclub. That said, I'm pretty sure coke takes the longest of all the various products. I definitely went through the same problem wondering if I did something wrong or if I missed something.

It's close to a mil to buy a coke business with the sale right now. Not really sure if I want to add that. It's probably more useful to get that hangar that lets you into the military base without a wanted level.

Like the other guy said could just be incompatible drivers. Start there.

If you're over clocking could be that (or just general system overheating).

Finally could just be your card dying.

It's likely only one of those three though, it's a pretty tell tale sign.

I was at 190/360 last night and set it to AFK for 8 hours or so while i crashed, so I might be pretty close to a full sale tonight yay. On the good side, when my techs completed filling one of the bars, they moved automatically to another. I was mostly expecting them to just be sitting around or to start getting phone calls saying i needed to manually switch them. I sold all 5 MC lockups of full product last night and got some cake missions(2 x duffle bags, 2 x helicopter drops, and a boat point to point) so i anticpate the next round will be the worst possible sales of each.

Maude from the story will text you with a series of 5 bounty targets for you to hopefully bring in alive. I found a single charging baseball bat strike was enough damage to scare them into surrendering. The delivery point for a living bail jumper is her trailer south of grapeseed. Reward is 10k max per bounty, and a rdr2 unlock melee weapon. Get 25 kills with that, and you are paid another 250k like with the revolver.

For the sake of the game, I'm going to be completely and hugely unpolitically correct right now, the difference between house and techno is that techno sounds slightly less gay


Some people may have a problem with the statement, but they apparently have a problem with something being gay and not being okay. It is totally okay for something to be gay, tale of us is just slightly less gay than the solomun set. Now clap yer hands, you dork.
