If you're on PS4 and in a crew, go to online>jobs>playlists>challenges and look for anyone of the ones that have a high dollar amount. Beat the target time and you win lots of money.

I ran a five lap Criminal Records race and won $250,000. It's called "3 min"

You need $250,000 for betting cash and need to be in a crew since it is a crew challenge.

You also need to be solo and you can only run this 4 times per character.

Other than blaming it on the users network settings, no they have not.

Yeah I got around to tweeting them a couple hours ago.

Me: (paraphrase) So any status on the online just taking forever/timing out/not connecting?

Them: We would be happy to help please create a ticket.

Me: (politely) With all due respect, I'm not creating a ticket. It's not my problem. It's affecting just about everyone.

To be fair, I've worked in tech support before and sometimes the bottom-end support guys need a shitload of tickets for stats before the higher ups will pay attention and admit there's a general issue.

They definitely know about it and are working on it, but that's about it (unless there's a support message somewhere I haven't seen).

Yessss I successfully pissed off a clan of assholes by playing Shake it Off on repeat with my phone leaning up against my mic. Then I left because they all four got jets and no way was I going to win against that.

Is the semi-auto sniper rifle the better gun to use against jets? I thought the heavy sniper was the best thing, but one of them was landing a lot of shots on me despite my ducking and weaving, so I'm thinking quantity over quality might be worth trying out.

We really need a new thread with an updated OP. It's pretty out of date and full of bad info. I haven't played since the original launch and didn't care for it much, so I tried looking at the OP here to see what's changed and none of it's even close. Not even the character creation anymore. It was a good OP for its time but it's almost worthless or downright unhelpful now.

That sounds like what they said a couple days ago about character transfers. You sure that was about online play / server connections?

I see that it still uses the PS3 invite system which just goes through players online playing GTA in alphabetical order, 15 at a time. Never managed to find a game of anything on PS3 and its looking like the same again now. Its a shame, it seemed to work fine on 360, got into jobs no problem.

I've been working on this the past day or two. Finally had some time to get one written up. Plus I needed to use the new character creator first.

I do have a couple of questions:

1) Missions payout and RP based on time. A mission or two that's good for this.
2) Same for races? I've found that a good threshold for more payout and RP is about 4 minutes. It's not a huge bump, but if you race solo just to mess around like I do it helps.
3) Can no longer change your hair color at the salon?

Was it the primary color before? I can't remember.

When you get your hair done, there's a slider at the bottom where you can change the color up on your hair, eyes, eyebrows and facial hair. It makes flipping through the hair so much more streamlined.

Before it would be a lot more subtle as the color of your car approached black.

Its purely cosmetic at this point, though I could see it being added in later on using the same characteristics of a race boost pickup.

Any new car mods available for old cars? And, also, would someone be willing to note down the mods for the new cars*, as well as which sections they're in, so I can add them to the spreadsheet?

*Duke O' Death, Dukes, Stallion, Marshall, Blista Compact—possibly BurgerShot Stallion, Pisswasser Dominator, Redwood Gauntlet, Go Go Monkey Blista and Sprunk Buffalo if there are any differences between these version and the regular ones?

On this note, why are we still blocked from wearing any other kind of clothing with the basketball jersey? There are NPCs in the world who wear the jersey plus long sleeve shirts, but player characters are stuck choosing one or the other.
