For me, GTA:O has actually been more stable than V. I only started playing online when I got locked out of the location that you have to go to to start the final heist. After the patch, I can get in through character switching tricks and use a quicksave workaround to actually start the mission. None of the problems I've come across in GTA:O have been anywhere near that annoying / game breaking (until yesterday). Couldn't log in for hours. When I finally did get online my friend and clan lists wouldn't load so I couldn't invite or join anyone, and missions automatically failed as soon as they started. Once I finally could get in and play, it stopped saving. Despite all that, I have been able to play more than I could during the first two weeks of online for both Red Dead Redemption and GTA IV.

Locobono posted:The only car you should be stashing to sell is the one the lawyer drives in the "Out of Court Settlement" mission. It has bulletproof tires and sells for 22k. Can you do this with one person? I'm sitting in it right now, but when I try to garage it it says "you can't access your garage while you have a mission objective". If it despawns after turning in the mission to Martin, how do you hold on to it to sell?

E: ijyt, if I find a Futo I'll hold it for you and let you know / send you an invite E2: if you come back online E3: Got it thanks to BitBasher, nevermind A couple of days ago I got mildly frustrated that my bikes and muscle car were in the very back of the garage and took forever to get to. I sold / destroyed all of my cars in order to re-populate the garage in a decent order. I have now spent all of my game time for the last 3 days driving all over the place looking for a Bagger. Yes, the shittiest motorcycle in the game. Still, with only 3 road bikes it is essential that I have one but I can not find the loving thing. If you are on PS3, are not busy, and are also cool as hell then I'd like to ask you for a handful of favors in sequence: - If you see a Bagger in the next hour or two, grab it and sit on it - Add me to your friend list so I can find you in-game (PSN: mr_dread) - Hope along with me that the session isn't full so I can come in - Give it to me - Don't murder me until I garage it I know it's asking a lot, but I really would appreciate any help. titties fucked around with this message at 01:15 on Oct 25, 2013 |

You're the first person to respond in the week that I've been asking about this. What you suggested is more-or-less what I have been doing during my last couple of tries except that I was slightly more diagonal than parallel. Are there any garages that have been confirmed not to work even though they have a walking / driving animation? I've already spent so much time on this, I'd like to be 100% sure that it is possible with the Integrity Way apartment.

UnknownMercenary posted:How do you pick things up with the Cargobob? Also, how do you finish "Landing Strip" without the plane blowing up? Tried it a few times with a goon and a pubbie and we landed the plane farther down the landing strip and enemy jeeps would blow it up. If this is the one I'm thinking of, I did it last night with a friend. He is an actual pubbie, and I play so badly that the only distinction between me and them is my goon crew tag. This is how we did it: He drove my armored Buccaneer down to the beach where you steal the plane. I took cover behind the rusted van that overlooks the beach. I popped out and took out two guys real quick to draw their attention while he drove up and sticky bombed their cars. He drove off, and while they were focused on him I did clean-up with the carbine without having to leave the cover of the wrecked van. Once they were all dead, he flew the plane and I drove my car. He circled the airfield while waiting for me to drive there. Once I got close, he made his approach. While he was landing / taxiing, I was ramming the enemy SUVs and leading them on a chase around the airfield. With them occupied, he was able to taxi to the marker and finish the mission. We did it in free aim even though my friend never plays free aim and cried about it, and as mentioned before I am loving terrible at videogame. You should be able to pull it off with 2 or 3 people. E: I think it's right d-pad to deploy the Cargobob magnet hook thing. titties fucked around with this message at 20:35 on Nov 3, 2013 |

Install Windows posted:It seems like they won't pop up the message and put the marker on your radar unless you're within a certain small distance of the armored car, and since the armored cars can spawn all over the map most of them don't end popping up the marker for you. I am pretty sure they have set routes. I have the downtown condo attached to the Tinkle Mobile building, and I see one drive past the garage entrance just about every day. It's the place on Integrity Way.

Also, can any model Granger have passengers hang off the running boards, or is it just the police model? I was thinking of replacing my Sandking with a Bobcat, since I know passengers can ride in the back of it. I found one while delivering a high-priority vehicle to the docks. I grabbed it and parked it off to the side near the Port Authority entrance, but it despawned when I dropped off the HPV. It was the first time I've seen them spawn online, and there were a bunch of them at once. I will probably never see another one

ExplodingSquid posted:When pink unlocks then they will be. I'm pretty sure people don't care that you're friendly. I found a couple of pubbies jumping dirtbikes in the hills near the vineyards. One of them had a bounty on him. I came up in my Weazel News van, wearing my nicest suit, and repping the WEZL tag. They killed me right away, but I figured the guy was just a little paranoid becuse of his bounty. I walked slowly back to them and wasn't threatening, but they killed me again. I turned on the mic and chased them around for a while in the news van, saying "I'm Buffy Wang, Weazel Action News. Would you like to comment on the brutal murder you committed only MOMENTS ago?", but they killed me again. I finally sent mercs after them, and they took off to hide in the vineyard. I followed them and shotgunned them from the back of my bike. I wanted to get pictures of their bodies lying between the rows of grapes so I could write a "Grapes of WRATH" headline, but I got ran off when a jeep came flying by overhead, someone was barreling down the side of the mountain after the bounty I claimed.

I gave up my news van for a Youga, since every time I tried to get a hard-hitting interview on the streets, my tires would get shot out / I would be way outpaced by every other type of car / I was murdered violently. The stock Youga already seems to have a more robust engine than the Rumpo, so after upgrades, armor, run-flats, a panel conversion, and the Weazel News logo on the hood I think it'll be a fair replacement.

To each their own. I prefer to latch on to a group of Awful Company or 1000-1009 goons and follow them around taking pictures of stuff blowing up. If I can't find a lively group, I'll try to get man-on-the-street interviews with pubbies. When they kill me (which is always), I'll follow them around the map asking them if they'd like to comment on the murder they committed only MOMENTS ago. They don't like it.

Since I'm not in any of the larger goon crews, I usually leave my vehicle access set to "everyone" so that the AWCO and 1009 goons can use my rides if they need to while we're doing missions. When I came out of my apartment, I was treated to the sight of a pubbie behind the wheel of my custom news van. He was doing doughnuts and blasting the horn in delight, obviously pleased at his find. When I asked him for a comment regarding the theft he tried to drive off, but I guess he wasn't expecting a van to leave a streak of rubber like it did and drove it into a telephone pole. I locked him out of the van and approached him while he circled it and tried all the doors. I asked him again to make a statement. When he didn't, I swiftly pulled out my knife and shanked him, punctuating the stabbing with a lustily growled "Weazel ACTION News". Even as his knees began to buckle I kicked his crumpling body away from the van so that he wouldn't leave a smear on the chrome finish. I'd have liked to get some pictures, but I proceeded to get dominated by a 10-year-old French boy and had to run away in shame. Getting player kills with a knife is the best. titties fucked around with this message at 19:41 on Nov 17, 2013 |
