Truth. Ive kinda given up on dressing cool or wacky. The available options just don't have the same pizazz after however many years this has been out. Bizarre rules on what can and can't go with certain pieces always end up in "Well gently caress if i can't wear this snappy suit over my skull tshirt,and full helmet, then screw it" and going back to a saved outfit.

Cars are likewise infuriating when trying to spice up a collection- applying the same paint and finish to different cars SHOULD end up looking the same. I accept that there are a few different body types to account for, supers are noticably "smoother" and take the glossy paints better than say a Dukes or some of the new milspec vehicles. These take the matte colors better and alot of the time just don't look right with a metallic or glossy job. Rusted cars have different characteristics. Add Pearlescents to that and it seems like once one is applied it never goes away and taints a car even when you repaint it. The ability to save a custom palette for cars(i.e. Primary = x, Secondary = y, Pearl = z, trim = ?) is one of those features that would be incredible but never ever make it into a current DLC

If GTA6 was simply GTAV with an updated, fully customizable clothing and car dressup engine, life would be grand.

Or a turn based SimGTA

Anyone got an idea as to why the right analog stick button doesn't work on the PS4 controller when playing the PC version? I can pan the camera around with the stick just fine, but all the actions tied to pressing the stick in don't register.

Have you triedturning it off and back on again unmapping and remapping it? If you go to the controller control panel and advanced does it register as a press?

^^ You don't need the Facility to buy and store a Deluxo. Stores in a personal garage, modifies in the MOC or Avenger. Interesting trivia I saw about the Deluxo:

quote:

Unlike the Oppressor, Rocket Voltic and Vigilante, the Deluxo is not considered either a Land Vehicle for use in Time Trials nor an Aircraft for "Fly Under Bridges" and "Low Flying" Freemode Challenges, likely due to its permanent hover capability. As a result of this, it is possible to fly over the fence at Fort Zancudo and not be targeted by the P-996 LAZER jets there.

Just logging in gets you $250k. Rebate part sounds like whatever you buy between the 16th(today) and 26th, after the week you'll get 10% of that total back, upto a million. So buy 10million worth of Faggios and get $1million cash back. Not sure if it applies to just vehicles and clothes, or if it includes things like property, ammo, cannon shots, hookers, cans of Sprunk, etc

The Cuban - I think it was, was doing a tiny crate sell to clear some room- is a tough little mother. For whatever R* reason, selling 2 crates turned into delivering 3 packages via plane. As I was approaching the first drop I spotted a Hydra behind me and closing quick. Of course mine was unarmed and "have to stay low" was the condition, so I couldn't get too crazy with evasive maneuvers. It took 2 missile hits there, and then another 3-4 as I got to the second drop. I had the 3rd drop in sight and took another that winged me. I was able to glide to the ground, plane didnt explode, but it wasnt moving so the sale was lost :( At least the dummy crashed his at the same time, I was able to watch that out the rear view

The emergency landing was near my facility so I strolled over and fired a orbital strike at him, but it ended up being the wrong guy with a similar name lol. Some low level dude who was complaining about being broke cuz he bought a hangar and yacht and his only other money maker was like a coke business. Kid had his priorities straight I geuss?

Also, be on the lookout for new arrivals from Legendary Motorsport and Elitás Travel in the form of the mighty Vapid Flash GT Sports car and the Sea Sparrow Chopper.

1. Is there a crate warehouse that stacks the first 6 crates all on the floor? I've got 5/6 of the rare crates in a small size, but it stacks the first on the floor, the next above it, then moves to the floor then above it, etc. Early on I had them spaced out with a normal crate on the top level, but I f'd up and sold some normals to make space, and it reshuffled them to fill in the first few stacks
pre:
norm norm norm norm
rare rare rare rare next

after selling the 4 normals, it becomes

rare rare next
rare rare rare
Which is worthless because you can barely see the contents of the top row

2. Next question which might be a moot point if the answer above is NO... if I buy a new warehouse and trade in the current one, does it transfer the existing crates or can you only do the tradein with an empty warehouse? I bet the R* answer is going to be sell them and start over on the collection and maintain the spacing with normals


3. What other rare/unbuyable but storable vehicles are there besides the hearse and the army jeeps? I'm not talking mods and spawning in, but naturally occuring, or otherwise reasonably glitchable. Early on there was a Lost slamvan but I think that's been patched out. Also a gang lowrider but that might just be a regular car with custom paints

I've been hunting the Thelma & Louise mariachi lowrider the last couple nights
First attempt ever, went perfectly until I drove it off the cliff and into the loving lake
Next couple trys didn't spawn, think I was too far out, or looking at the spot when the time flipped
Found it again, but forgot I had switched out sniper ammo to explosive rounds. Oops!
Last night it spawned and several police choppers appeared after. Took off in my stupid jetpack to take care of them but when I came back the car was gone

Any opinion on using the ignition bomb? Since that's the only customization that can be applied to this - it seems like it might be fun to leave around as a bait car. It doesn't seem like having it will impede my own driving of the car, and unless it's been patched, I think some fancy server switching can be used to remove the bomb if I really wanted. I did want to ask though, if I install it, and someone uses it, I know I have to pay the insurance, but after restoring the car, will it still have a bomb, or will I have to install another one?

I don't think I've ever done a bomb on a car. With having it licensed and insured there's never really been an issue with someone stealing your car for good.

Last freebie was the Hermes. Christmas day 2017 was the "free day". Was supposed to be free but if you purchased it before getting the ingame text, you got charged for it. Later got a refund for the amount you paid for it.

Per R* math it all worked out? I bought one at regular price(-$535k), then bought a second free one for 0 dollars after getting the text. I sold the regular one for half price(+$260k ish), and then got a refund for the full amount(+$535k) the next day. Yeah that sounds about right

If you didn't see the black screen (YOURE ACCOUNT HAS BEEN ADJUSTED BY -$15,000,023) during loading, then I agree something shady is going on. Good luck?

If you use the game to launch a solo session it limits the ceo and biker stuff somewhat but you can still do i/e cars both source and sell. Not sure about bunker and air stuff

If you start in a public open lobby and then somehow go solo you can still do everything buy and sell for ceo ,bikers, bunkers,air, etc
Only limits there is some big sales need multiple vehicles, and if you sell an i/e car in a solo lobby you’ll see NPCs bugging you

The NPCs it spawns for solo sell missions are like a hundred times worse than potentially being attacked by another player

slight edit to above for I/E NPC's..

If there's nobody outside your org in the lobby, the NPCs will spawn. If you have 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 people in a lobby and all in the same org and selling cars, and nobody else, then youll see NPCs.
If the lobby is like 3 in an org and someone not(either in their own org, or just freeroaming), then there are no NPCs

When I want to source and sell cars on my own with low hassle, I try to end up in a lobby with like 3-4 other people. It keeps the npc's from spawning, and there's usually enough dead space along the routes to not have to worry, other than the usual lovely traffic

So some hacker just randomly gave me about 8 billion dollars on the 360. I was planning on upgrading to PS4 soon anyway so I decided to have some fun with it and buy a bunch of poo poo. Is there any chance I'll get banned for this and if so would it carry over to any account I make on the PS4?

I was told that there are some glitchy things with over $2bil on your character. Like not being able to use Mors for insurance? Something weird like that
If you make it through the first week or so of whatever the new DLC is without catching a ban then you should be good on that character/account




I just learned that you can get up to 6 apartment/garages now. The last I noticed it was at 4, and I geuss when I've moved I just assumed I had to trade in old ones so i stayed at 4. One trick I found to make life a little easier is to buy multiple apartments in the same building. This way you don't have multiple places all over to maintain and try to remember what is where. At the time it looked like 3 was the most places in a single building(I went with Richards), but have since seen that Eclipse has 6 or 7 apartments so I might move there. When you drive up to the garage, it's similar to the CEO garage where it asks you which garage to park in. You can't switch from one to another without walking outside, but thats a minor inconvenience. It helps to clean up the list a bit when calling the mechanic, using the assistant, and other menus- instead of having to rememeber like 10 different street names, it's now just a couple names and the floor number, and that fits on my sticky note a lot better

Totally gearing up for funbux for new DLC it appears.Free giveaway of $300k, 2x on biker sales, crates, and air crates for the week. Nice! Just last week I bought the rest of the MC businesses, so they're sitting full of product to sell and then shut down(FU LJ Teabag). My large crate stash is at like 95/111 so that will be ripe for selling shortly. Feels good to clear everything out once in a while



Re: the special crates(film reel, sasquatch skin, etc) Are those included in the double 2x$ sales? Sitting on 5/6 right now, last night it showed like $600,000 for the sale value of all of them.
