Heck yeah! Didn’t have much time tonight but I bought the garage(3.6m). Used a rat loader I already had and upcharged that, hot drat there’s a lot of options. Is there any difference other than aesthetic to the apocalypse/future/exxxtreme versions? I did NOT see an option to change that later or even to downgrade it to stock The new weapons are neat. I went with the kinetic grenade launcher(goes about 50ft and then FWUMP! there’s an explosion but very little damage. It’ll launch a cop car into the air) Sticky prox mines might be useful in the arena mode? Bounce is bounce, don’t know what lower % does, or rather how much bounce you get at each level How do you activate the boost?

Shunt boost is RB / R1 + a direction on the stick, normal boost is just RB / R1. Or A / X on the face buttons depending on your handbrake controls. Scoop front bumpers own. They function the same way as the Phantom Wedge's plow, so you can fling everything you touch hundreds of feet into the air. Good times!  I bought a second Imperator and second Impaler to go with my normal cars. No weapons, no crazy post apocalyptic decorations or spikes, just cool rear end looking cars to cruise in. Shame the the Impaler has to have either the garbage Nightmare upgrade or the Apocalypse upgrade to get the kickass giant rear tires, since I really wanted to do a semi-clean and polished drag Impaler. Ah well.

namlosh posted:This sucks a lot It isn't all in one place, but all you're actually unlocking when it comes to car parts is a lower price, and the ability to put it on in a pre-arena event menu. Stuff you haven't unlocked has a pink lock on it, and a high price tag, you can still install it, but it costs a ton of money. the last level i gained unlocked a loving $10k discount on a $40k t-shirt Game dumb and bad, cars cool and good. grand theft auto is a game of contrasts.

Lol, just founds out that the unlocks are random, like bunker research. I looked it up after what you said since I could swear I got the trade price on one of the vehicles already. I did, on the 350z. I’m arena lvl3 I’m not one to complain about free new content on the steely, wheely, automobiley game so I’ll just end this post riiiiiiiiiiight here

It's definitely a hot spot in front of the arena for now with vehicles milling around. We had an impromptu demo derby there for a bit, and surprisingly nobody was just using bombs for the easy kills. Surely it won't take long for this to be exploited camping on the roof or flybys on OpMK2's. I tried to put my weaponed up rat loader in the nightclub but was denied. Once they're upgraded I'm assuming they have to be stored in the arena garage(3x10=30 total?) so in a perfect world there should be 10 upgradable models and you can make an apocalypse garage, a future garage, and a whatever the 3rd is garage. Poking around, it looks like R* buffed the ramp buggy and phantom wedge by removing the cap on how many vehicles you can ramp before breaking down. Previously was ~30 hits and youd be smoking. And wheelies are fuckin rad hold handbrake and gas and then let go of the handbrake to launch Ain't nothing like lightin up the Dukes and doing a block long wheelie!

Buying the arena club(or wtf ever its called) starts you with a 10 car garage, and you can buy 2 more floors to it for a total of 30 there. You can park "regular" cars in these spots, but I dont know if you can park upgraded cars in other garages(above, i tried the nightclub and it wouldnt let me) fakeedit: in theory if you buy the bennys tech and the weapons tech, you should be able to use this as a one-stop garage for everything(barring planes and probably some of the facility things) Fart.Bleed.Repeat. fucked around with this message at 18:54 on Dec 12, 2018 |

You can't move the bigger cars, but every time i drive the slamvan or 380z out of the garage it warns me that storing it in another garage will cause it to lose it's custom name.

Ah, perhaps the rat loader monster is too big for a normal garage then. Sounds like there are 12 total cars that can upgrade, of course thats not a nice number to fit 36 cars in 30 slots, but if 2 of the models can be stored elsewhere, I'd bet theres a nice 6 car garage in the neighborhood that could take the overflow. Theres only 5 or 6 out now so theres at least a few more weeks to figure it out before crunch time

Imperator and Impaler can both be stored in personal garages for sure. Not sure about the Scarab, but I'm fairly certain the Issi can be as well.

the arena games aren't great but they're marginally more fun than the neverending opressor mkII clay pigeon shoot called freeroam. the deathbike (gargoyle) seems to be the clear leader though in terms of actually winning events.

How to level up in the arena: do death matches/races with 5 people 3 people die immediately, the other 2 go get a snack for 15 minutes 3 dead people play the wheel spin thing in the loser room` e: i got a notification that i unlocked a pegasus vehicle for leveling up in the arena, i got excited, and checked the list, and it was just called "Taxi", i thought "well, maybe it's some kind of crazy taxi". so i called it in and it was just a red taxi with white walls.  I thought, maybe it's special, it has rockets or something, so i get in it, and it does absolutely loving nothing it's just a taxi Powershift fucked around with this message at 02:37 on Dec 13, 2018 |

Tips on using shunt boost on keyboard? I've tried X and Left Shift, in combination with A/D, but nothing's happening. Also, is it me or do the laser guns seem pretty under powered? I'm amused however that simply running into my car, like on foot, colliding with my car, kills me with the spikes.

Haven't gone clothes shopping yet, but drat if this isnt some expensive poo poo! Arena club all decked out, mechanics, extra floors, 3.6m. This didn't seem too out of line from the last things like NIghtclub. Bought a few cars and modded them up. I know I don't strictly need 3 Rat trucks and 3 Gargoyles, one of each theme, but you know. After the upgrades and customizing, I swear my bank is about 20 mil lighter So there are 7 normal cars you can upgrade to the 3 themes. Once you upgrade there doesnt appear to be a way to change them or go back to standard, fine with that. The other 5 new cars that come pre-modded all seem to be Apocalypse, with no way to change theme. Maybe future drips wlll be these in the other themes? From the leaks it looks like there are a few more that aren't out yet Def like the EMP grenades best out of the new toys. Sticky and slippy are ok but not too drastic. Spikes sound kinda lame cuz of bulletproof tires. Kinetics are pretty cool but being the default front grenade makes them a little redundant

You can spawn more and more utility vehicles, use crazy costumes, flying cars, overpowered weapons, underwater cars, military vehicles, create a derby, etc. I suppose most of this is logical. Would it have been wise to have all this in the game from the start? QoL improvements, surely yes, but I think the weaponized vehicles have a way of burning people out. I would support removing the MkII & jetpack missiles in freeroam. Eregos fucked around with this message at 08:50 on Dec 13, 2018 |

For GTA VI's online, do they take all the cool poo poo away from us and drip feed it back, or start the game out batshit insane on day 1?

They really have no reason to think the same approach wouldn't make them another couple billion dollars. As for the pricing, Rockstar hosed up when they unbanned me and gave me back every single GTA$ I'd received from any in-game source since playing from day one on 360. I still can't buy anywhere near everything. lmao

I have been dropped plenty of $ in the past, but I actually envy those with billions still. I’ve heard ballpark figures of like $258 million for everything right now. Buy it now prices and none of the drip feed and probably a ton of other assumptions I don’t care about. Sounds about right. I have every Benny’s car and bike and this is a similar update in a lot of ways. Let me tell you, it’s easy to quickly go through a million $ just modding without paying attention. Shouldn’t have bought all those properties on my second character when they went on sale recently lol
