Looking at the corner spot, Rise of Omiros is the dab guy, has the stamp icon cuz that's where it's installed. Down the hall you can see the back of the Rainbow V where it is installed, but in the list it shows as just a check since I own it. If I Q/E over to the spot the V is in, in the list, the V shows as the stamp icon, and the dab guy just has a check. Plus those other things in the list that are checked are installed somewhere in the penthouse. A 3rd icon or a little color/grey-out would do wonders for confusion.

I'm annoyed they didn't process my twitch prime penthouse in time to buy the first round of decorations. Thank you for caring.

I'm guessing the stuff will rotate within a few weeks.

First week the casino mask shop had Jack masks, this week has Kings, so we'll definitely have Queen masks and perhaps even Aces or Jokers.

Mad about the interior decoration process. For all the stuff you buy you can only use one copy of it in your penthouse. That's fine because really how many YELLOW DOG WITH CONEs can one man have?

No this is not fine, just let me buy enough copies of Sprunk Hunk to fill every wall slot please

Been trying to get some AFK nightclub monies rolling in. Seems to only work if I AFK in an active lobby. I just put a rubberband on my Xbone joystick while hanging out in the nightclub and it goes just fine.

If I try to do the same exact thing inside a contact mission, I get kicked for being idle for too long :(.

the king mask is a must-have, so when a friend goes in their computer you can put it on and do the creepy Burger King commercial bit when they log off

NC goods accrue inside an invite-only session too so you can avoid getting kicked by pubbies. Don't think they do outside of free-mode though. Just make sure you disband CEO/MC before you AFK so as to not incur additional daily fees.

I think you can do everything for the Nightclub inside an invite-only session except for selling.

Yeah not sure if I like the powered white look, or the "realistic" flesh tone. Can't wait for the Ace of Spades for a little Motorhead tribute band I'm putting together in game



^^ I think that was a patch/fix recently that starting a mission and then AFK doesn't do what you're expecting anymore. It'll AFK you but not grow your product. If you must, then quit your CEO/MC and watch TV, or watch the feed of the DJ in the nightclub, or watch security cameras. You'll still get some minor bills like your property and mechanic, but not the businesses, warehouses, etc. If you insist on using a rubberband, then go to the dance floor and start dancing then apply the rubber, this way you should get up to 50% popularity bar(unless this has been tweaked too- missions and changing DJ that previously only did 1/10th now do a 1/4 increase)

Anyone locked out of gambling? I think someone or something got mad at me for macro-ing horse races for hours on end. No gambling games work, though I can still spin the wheel and buy chips. When I approach a table/machine it says something like "this is not available right now, please try again later." I have no idea if/when functionality will be restored.

I've heard that happens when you try to cash out large amounts of chips. Like in the region of 20M.

For me it happened right around the time I got 10m total winnings, had 4m in chips on hand at the time and it just kicked me off the horse terminal and gave that message immediately. Can't speak for anyone elses but I'm pretty certain mine was related to winning too much

I’m annoyed that there doesn’t seem to be anywhere you can display both dancer lamps together, they can’t be used on the bedside cabinets.

Hover your cursor over the right > for increase bet, press and hold A to start increasing it, but then immediately hit down on the d-pad to place bet. Hold A for the whole race.

You will only pay 200 chips to place your bet but if you win, you get returns based on the max bet (10k).

Really high up? They do not... there is a limit. I think pyrealm(?) gaming did a YouTube video on it... but I can’t remember the number.

Pretty sure it was out of ground fire range though. Post if you find it, I’m at work now so can’t go lookin

The racing lockout is from going in and backing out to refresh to get better odds. It’s a 1 hour lockout. If you exit game and reload or switch sessions it clears.

Backing in and out to refresh your odds is more like a 3-4 minute timeout. It was cleared by the time I walked from Inside Track to the high limit blackjack table, played a single hand, then walked back to Inside Track.

If you idle for too long (because you're cheating with a script to automate betting 200 chips on the horses) you get automatically locked out of all casino games as well as your private dealer for 1 week.
