Actually, shooting the hostages is a viable strategy. Once you get to the bikes and start following the GPS route, there will be a SWAT van in the road. Load everybody into the van and enjoy a leisurely drive up the western coast highway to the boat.

So for months now I've had spammers following me around. They pop into my session, spam a bunch of squares that I assume are chinese characters, and immediately leave. The issue is you can't report someone unless they are in your session as you report them. If they leave before you get a chance to report them, they get away. You have basically a 5-10 second window so they get away every time. What can be done about this?

Really not much other than play in invite only sessions. If you're hell bent on reporting them, then run a video capture of you playing so that you can document their screen name and open a R* support ticket, attaching videos for proof. I've got a feeling they aren't following YOU specifically, but more likely they are located or reporting IPs in the same area as you so when you are roughly geographically matched they're more likely to get into the same lobbies? The ones that I've seen don't actually do anything other than spit out a few lines of squares, presumably chinese dick pills or GTA $$ services, and then leave.


Bonus week is a little off schedule still. New super car is out, $1.8mil for the Devest8. To me it looks same as the other hypercars with a slightly different bodykit, but those aren't really my bag so I don't pay much attention to that market segment

Yep! I was recently with a crew that did this. It’s awesome. No stupid bike failures, no slow rear end off-roading up the mountain, no screwing up the parachute, no losing money each time you’re shot. You are impervious to bullets inside the van, just ignore the planned route, drive all the way to the boat from the west side with it and you’re done.

Yeah I don't get why anyone would grind this one. It's not like the obscure hard to do car dupes or glitching Act 2 of Doomsday Heist which are hard to discern between actual exploits and game mechanics, I'm sure Rockstar is going to be able to easily track people that gain millions this way.

Does it just crash? Or does it artifact before it does? Might be a dying graphics card... use MSI Afterburner to check your temps while playing and before it crashes.

From what i can gather, in your garage you call lester and have him find you a plane, then quickly leave your garage and go to where the plane should be. If the plane doesn't spawn it starts refunding you the $1000 once per second.

I haven’t tried the shunt yet sounds like today’s fun. I’m still sticking with the most fun out of this new update is sitting motionless in your car and dropping five kinetic minds. Then after you pull away they activate and become a super mine

See, I haven’t done that! Will try it

FWIW, the Brutus van seems to be the best at throwing cars (and yourself) using shunt boost. It can be expensive fun though. If you’re not landing in water, you’re simply destroying your vehicle from getting beat up too much. It’s really tough on them, but soooooo much fun. Sometimes NPC cars insta-splode which is its own satisfaction.

It freezes, then both monitors go black for a second, and then it's no longer responding

Checked my temperature on MSI Afterburner. Goes up to a max of 84 inside the nightclub, drops to 81, then stays there. Game crashed, remained at 80-81 Celsius.

Idling at 80C is far, faaaaar from ideal, but its not really high enough to be failing because of that if you didn't see it break 84. Both monitors going black does indeed point to gpu crash though, try rolling those drivers back?

got a directX error that said 'failed initialization, please try reinstalling if this persists'

I'm reinstalling the current driver, if that doesn't work I'll roll it back to another one.

I got this response from re-installing.

Far as I know, you do lose the upgrades. They will need to be re-purchased if you want the security, personnel, and equipment

And not sure if you can move if you have any made product? Other warehouses have to be empty before you trade them in. Any research you’ve unlocked stays unlocked

Speaking of fixing glitches, it looks like the Terrorbyte rare cargo 3-for-1 was patched up. This was when you got a special call from assistant, you could go into the truck and launch the buy for 3 crates for $18k and get 3 rare pieces. When I finished last night, I got 3 normal crates. Other than the novelty of having multiple Sasquatch skins and gold miniguns, it only really added 2 extra rare crates so you could get up to 8 instead of 6(one of each) for a bigger sale.

No idea what'll happen with the hangar thing. I'm not seeing it on PC apparently it exists but because of the timing needed, unless you were locked around 30fps it was nigh impossible to get it just right. I'd bet on nothing but it quietly getting patched and then the tears will flow

If that were the case, would they go after the players who afk grind the nightclub? It's not a glitch, but def an exploit outside of intended game play.

I might do the glitch, just so R* can ban me and get me away from this game once and for all.

Yeah that's the argument I've seen a lot of. I think it'd be harder to hit the AFK business grinding because I don't think there's a good way to flag people doing it legitimately or not, whereas the Lester glitch SEEMS like it will be stupid easy to detect since no one is LEGITIMATELY getting millions in refunds from plane calls

good point.

the "gtaglitches" subreddit is claiming that half the players are doing it and "they can't ban us all"

Maybe, but they might reset your account.
