Going online right now btw, if anyone cares to join. Did a job for Lester last night and got $30,000. Also, there is a car thats like an SUV with a distinct silver strip along the side. Sell it in mint condition for $9000. Stock up your garage with them to periodically sell them for $9000 a time.

Maybe it was a mission that was discarded but some of its code remained.
And I have to go out soon. The internet has been gay lately. Halo and Battlefield was bad, I'd hate to see how GTAO looks with this house's lag spikes.
Drakul
07-18-2014, 08:51 AM
Maybe. Would that glitch into free roam?
That $30,000 mission from Lester is now paying out $15,000. I'm assuming because it was my second time doing it but Rooftop Rumble still pays handsomely so maybe R* just tweaked the money.

Speaking of money, does anyone know how the money for custom races etc is calculated? I had a race that I made with one check point. You raced from the airport to the Vinewood Bowl with no fixed route. It pays a little over $700.
I thought it might be the number of check points rather than distance that calculates money so I made a race using the maximum number of check points but the money was no better.

My mental state shot up by about a bar when I wasn't even playing. Also money vanished from my ingame bank. I thought that happened a few weeks ago when I robbed a view convenience store and the money vanished when I played next time but I wasn't sure. Now I know it's happening.

Beat this last week. Enjoyed it, but I feel like there could have been so much more.
Taking care of my Under the Bridges and Stunt Jumps to get 100% and the trophies that go with it. Followed by my combination of 70 gold medals.

Plus, I've never glitched or bought a Shark Card but I'm still doing pretty well.
I've got the most expensive apartment in the game and a house in Paleto Bay. 10+ customised cars, including a Turismo R I've really souped up. Every available item of clothing. Something like 98% of the available guns with a lot of upgrades and ammo to go with them. I've still got over half a million in my ingame bank which I'm saving up for my biggest purchase.
I'm doing fine without the glitches. I do consider myself a "Bounty Hunter" in the game, including Lesters random assassination missions. So it does add up pretty quickly.

I've never bought a shark card myself. As far as glitching goes, I've only done a DNS modded lobby once with just one of my friends. Ranked up 40 times in that 20 minutes. Mostly just by pissing the cops off and then hiding in the subways. Each time we lost the cops, we gained like 8 ranks.
Moneywise, I ran over a pedestrian and picked up almost 2 million dollars during that session. Then I reset my DNS back to normal and cleared the cache and things were normal for about 3 weeks. I then unknowingly spawned in a modded lobby after a race and someone gave me 14 billion, then someone else gave me another 20 million.
Rockstar then redid everything, removed modded monies, ranks, etc. All but $50,000 was taken from me and they dropped my rank to 74, which was about 20 higher than what I had before the modding, etc.
Now, I'm sitting at 77 or 78 with a little over $100,000 in the bank. I sold my Roosevelt (that mafia car thing) and bought a slew of weaponry and the Paleto Bay house. It's actually a little more enjoyable to play now.
Drakul
07-21-2014, 05:34 AM
Yeah, the earning of money to buy specific things is what makes the game enjoyable for me. Up until very recently, my motivation was buying all the clothing. I have everything I want and, with no one from TPWW playing online, I'm losing enthusiasm for online.
We're about the same rank. I'm seventy-something.
Purgatory
07-21-2014, 05:39 AM
Oh, something hilarious from a fairly recent session. I was in a private session with my son (12) and some kid he knew (about 9 years old or so). He was bragging how his parents had just gotten him two Shark Cards just so he could buy a million dollar car, or something. My son immediately started whining to me about how his parents buy him EVERYTHING and why can't he get cards like that, etc. I said it was because he wasnt a SPOILED FUCKING BRAT like the other kid apparently was. IMMEDIATELY, the other kid flips out then I can hear, what I believe was either his mother or some other relative, yelling at him for yelling then at me for what I had said.
Was probably one of the funniest things that's ever happened to me on GTA Online thus far.

But yeah, I wish more TPWW folks were on when I'm on. The biggest problem I think are different timezones. Right now, for me, it's about 4:40AM EST and I've gotta drag off to work. I'm gonna be on this afternoon/evening around 5:30pm.

I don't talk online because I can't be bothered with kids yelling at me. You can usually tell they're kids when you take them down for a bounty and they spend the next 45 minutes constantly trying to kill you. At least, I hope they're kids. I don't want to believe an adult would take me claiming a bounty on them so personally that they'd go into a near hour long rage.

I've done a few random events and none of them have rewarded me. I know some don't reward you immediately but I'm starting to wonder if something has gone wrong because days have passed and I've done missions since but I've not heard any more from any of the random people I helped.
Purgatory

they're pretty random, from what I've noticed. I get phonecalls repeatedly in some sessions, then I might go a whole session without getting any calls at all.
Drakul
07-23-2014, 05:12 AM
I meant in story mode. I saved someone from enemies and I got someone else away to safety and I got someone else home from a place they didn't want to be. Not one of them paid me or called me later to offer stocks or services. Three random events.
DAMN iNATOR
07-24-2014, 04:42 PM
A lot of the random encounters are meant to work like that. You pass a certain area of the map and you might see one person in need of help or you may even come across a cop or cops dealing with a criminal or group of criminals. I know for sure those re-spawn in the same area every time, just not sure what the reset interval is. Obvious case in point: up in Paleto Bay the armored car usually only shows up once a week before resetting each time.
It should go without saying but it also may seem to happen if you do the Strangers and Freaks stuff. Took my dumb ass like 15 seconds to go from playing as Trevor who I'd been using to collect all the spaceship parts to remembering, oh, yeah, I've gotta switch to Franklin and wait for the guy to call Franklin.
Drakul
07-24-2014, 05:01 PM
The ones I did weren't the repeating ones like the mugger or armoured truck. They were unique ones. Like the one I got not long after first playing the game. A guy asked me to help him out as a random event. He text me a while later saying he owned the Ark pet store and was giving me some stock.
I assumed the three I mentioned above were that kind of deal but it seems not.
Drakul
08-10-2014, 02:51 AM
Finished the story about a week ago. I found the ending very satisfying. It's a shame we wont get story DLC.
They need to do something to make online interesting again. I've lost all desire to play it now.
In news, there is a new mod going about that allows players to have their character "rape" (as that seems to be how people refer to it) your character by having their character snap to your back, with their pants down, and use an ingame doggy style sex animation on you. After that's done, all your character does is dance like a stripper.
Luckily I haven't stumbled across it but it does put me off online. I believe that no matter what you do, say or imagine, there is someone, somewhere who would get off to it. So I'm sure someone, somewhere is using that mod with their pants down and I'd rather not help them out.

Its actually done at a tattoo parlor near the top of the city. You go inside and open the door to come back out but you take cover against it. Then have someone else drive a car (compacts seem to work best) into the door and keep accelerating. Eventually the car goes flying. My son and I are on now looking for more of them

The tattoo parlor is by far the easiest place to do it, but the buildings around it are taller and make it harder to get any real distance. Ive gotten a few really good ones tho.
Ive launched so that I glitch and etc stuck in the sky. Once I get out of the car, it falls. Ive even glitched off the map once. The only benefit ive gotten from doing this is a gold medal for flipping my car. Its just a fun time waster if you've got a bunch of people

I'm free to have a session. Just tell me a time.
I dislike having my mental state so high for playing the game as they intended it to be played and it takes way too long to drop. I think it's like an hours play without killing anyone and it drops a tiny amount. They want me to sit around online doing nothing to lower this stupid meter enough that I'm not killed on sight.
Why not add a psychiatrist service online? You can go along and pay, say, $2,000 to $5,000 per segment of meter it clears.
Purgatory
08-17-2014, 11:47 AM
I dunno. My characters mental state was through the roof for a bit and I was rarely just killed on sight. I think it depends on the other players "omg, is he coming to kill me" paranoia.
Its been alright lately tho. I have been in some pretty chill sessions. Except for this one about a week ago. Some player jumped in my car with me and rode around. He didnt have a mic or just wasnt talking so I didnt know what his intentions were. I drove off a cliff and jumped out just before it went over and left the other guy in. He died...I dont even know if he realized I had bailed out. Didnt see him again, so I just dont know.

Got all my single player trophies last night. Geez. Tracking down a shark took me forever.
Does anyone know if all progress/trophies will transfer over to the ps4/xb1 consoles when it gets released? Curious about picking it up just to have a party game and possibly knock out all my multiplayer trophies. I know multiplayer stats carry over. But I'm wondering about single player and trophies earned?

I have two theories about heists.
1. Cynical theory - They're holding off on releasing them unti the Next Gen versions are out. The Xbox1, PC and PS4 will get them for X number of weeks or months before 360 and PS3 get it. A way to get people to buy the new version.
2 R* Messed Up theory - R* fully intended to release the heists but, due to the importance they put on money etc in the game, they can't release them without making money and the other jobs utterly worthless. So, they've accidentally painted themselves into a corner,

The update isn't as impressive as previous updates. The only clothing additions are a 1930's pilot helmet and a full body fighter pilot outfit.
There are about half a dozen new vehicles, most of which are aircraft, obviously.
The new parachutes have me a little confused. It talks about primary and secondary chutes. Is this a new "Sometimes your chute will screw up. Better get the backup chute!" thing or is it just another possible chute that you'll randomly use? I'm wanting a Scotland chute bag. $150,000 for it, though.
The airplane lessons are added to Online. No idea if you get anything for completion.

The Parachuting missions that are good for 2X money are pretty good for just doing on your own. Sure it pays more if more than 2 are doing it, but it's a pretty relaxing way to rack up money.

Some guy had a vendetta against me or something and happened to be within sight of me entering a One On One. Fucker kept getting me before my opponent could.

That one must be broken. I landed multiple times and it just would not register it. I finally got a gold though.
That low as you can stay one is horseshit.
I hate that one. I tried endlessly for over an hour. Some of the failures were stupid. I dunked the underside of the plane in the water and the game failed me and said the vehicle was wrecked despite the fact it was still flying. Other times it had no problem with me doing it.
Over an hour though. I got a gold and I will never play that lesson again. At this point I don't even want to fly that plane ever again.
Tips for that lesson.
Do not accelerate. You can float through the entire thing.
Using the LB and RB buttons to gradually turn helps get from most of the targets to the next targets. There are a few you'll need to use the stick for, though.
Flying through the arrow or just below it is good enough to pass.

Tried getting on and giving that a shot yesterday. Played the first mission, which was some stupid capture the intel thing in jets which turned out to be an absolute waste of 5 minutes, not including the 10 minute load time into the event and the wait for the game to start.
Next gametype put me in a lobby and a bunch of people had already left so I was going to have to wait again, so I said fuck it and shut down my console.
Something about the atrocious load times this game has just makes me not want to play it. The gametypes are too quick and not fun enough to warrant the stupid load times, just to be done in no time in a gametype that wasn't even fun.

At least one radio station will get updated with new music and content while another 2 radio stations are rumored to be getting added for the PS4 and Xbox One versions.
Outed by Cara Delevingne via Instagram, the actress who DJ’ed modern pop music in the game, announced, “Back with [Rockstar Games] to update my GTA V radio station Non Stop Pop FM for new versions this Fall!"
Delevinge is referencing the forthcoming PlayStation 4 and Xbox One port of last year’s highly successful Grand Theft Auto V. The updated version utilizes the more powerful consoles and PCs to give the game a graphical overhaul, with brief footage shown at this year’s past E3.
As of now Rockstar has yet to address an update for any other of GTA V’s 16 radio stations. Unofficially, however, fans discovered a slew of t-shirts within the game displaying logos of past GTA radio stations, such as Fever 105 and Flash FM – suggesting those stations might make a return.

According to Rockstar the official reason why the PC has a later release date is due to "polishing" reasons.
Rockstar has offered a brief explanation for why Grand Theft Auto V on PC will not release on November 18 alongside the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions.
“We’re glad to see so many of you are excited for the upcoming release of the new versions of GTAV and we look forward to sharing more details with you soon,” the developer wrote. “We are also incredibly excited to be bringing GTAV to the PC, but the game requires a little more development time in order to ensure that it is as amazing and polished as possible. Please do stay tuned as we reveal new features and information about all the new versions in the weeks ahead.”
The next-gen versions of the game will feature new weapons, vehicles, and activities, as well as additional wildlife, denser traffic, improved foliage, enhanced damage and weather effects, and much more, according to the developer. There’s also enhanced radio selections with over 100 additional new songs.

According to Take Two's CEO, total sales for GTA V right now are around 34 million with 5 million sold so far this year. Also currently expecting a big bump in sales once the PS4 and Xbox One versions get released.
On the second quarter FY15 earnings call, Take-Two CEO Strauss Zelnick says that Grand Theft Auto V is still selling well, with big hopes for the new-gen versions. In response to a question, Zelnick says that the company hasn’t reached 100 percent saturation despite huge sales of the title.
The company has sold over 34 million copies of the title on Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3. This is up by five million units in the past year.
For comparisons, it needs another 1-2 million to pass Mario Kart Wii for #5 all-time and another 6-7 million to pass Super Mario Bros for 4th. After that it gets a lot tougher to crack the Top 3 (Tetris, Wii Sports, Minecraft).

Lot easier for Rockstar to just pay than have to go through all the effort to prove they were never dishonest about the status of heists or other complaints about the game.

This isn't people trying to kick a fuss over endings they didn't like.
This is a feature that was promised for a game before the game came out. It was the sales pitch. And now it will show up on all but one console. This isn't a subjective 'I don't feel they delivered' thing. It was literally an announced feature that will not come for many people. It may not be as strong as the Aliens/Gearbox thing, but there's something there. Studios can't say this will be in the game, and then not do that.

From years of playing MMOs I am accustomed to this sort of thing. I really care SO little to argue about it though so let's just agree to disagree forever

I mean, if you can give me an example of a promised bullet point of a game being canceled after it went on sale and how it's actually common, I hear ya. I can't think of anything that egregious off the top of my head. We may actually agree, I just need a compass here.
I'm hopping on the next gen versions when we get an X1 so I'm not personally vexed, I just sympathize with those who may feel this way.

This is why GameGate needs to be successful in its cause. This was an overhyped feature not only by Rockstar but all major video game publications. They have to do a better job making previews actually preview and not just hype pieces to get people to buy the game. The preview should be realistic about what to expect from the game.
Ign should have stopped covering GTA Online Heist coverage after it didn't happen when it was supposed it. They should have then said "we'll preview/review" when it's released" and nothing more should have ever been said about it until it was ready for download.
Publications weren't the only ones who overhyped it. We overhyped it a lot here. So we aren't blameless.

So, assuming these fucktards actually have a case in this hypothetical, do they have grounds to sue for anything more than the cost of the game they supposedly bought under false pretenses? I hope they would only get their shitty $60 back and also be forced to pay the legal fees. God I hate people sometimes.
Only thing fair it to give everybody a copy of a version of the game that has Heists in them.
Which means free trade-ins for the 360/ps3 version to the next-gen. But like you said it's all moot if the mode is going to come for all systems. There's too much false information and hype.
Somebody has to cut through the bullshit and then figure out what happened and if anybody is to blame.

What about Mass Effect? Shape the game your way but it the end it went down to 3 (4) choices.
Not that fair though because it switched from Microsoft Studios to EA. Big change from Mass Effect 1 and 2/3. Wonder how the games would have went down had they not done that.

Seriously, what are you 2 years old? It's not like the game shipped after all the hype, and everyone got goat simulator. Even going back to the initial problems with GTA Online, people were bitching and moaning about "false advertising" and demanding their money back, and I was really wishing they'd all just step on a hive of furious mud wasps.
The single player game was worth more than $65. Then we get a huge online update that has more content than most paid DLC, completely free of charge.
But no, we should all get free copies of the next gen version, because one feature proved more difficult to develop than anticipated.
It's fucking disgusting.

Dude... Heists was a pretty big selling point. This is a whole multiplayer mode, not some subjective reaction to a feature. People are in fact entitled to a mode that was promised to be in a game that never comes. But if there's some miscommunication there and it will come to everyone I guess it's moot.

Yeah, I'm just saying... Heists were a HUGELY advertised part of the multiplayer. I'm pretty pissed about how underwhelming the game was. Other than the other parts that were delayed well past release also. Multiplayer feels like a gutted version of what we were promised from the start.
Heists as well as THE ONLINE STOCK MARKET, were two things that were going to MAKE the online portion of the game. Seriously, those 2 features were what I was most excited about for GTA Online. They still haven't happened. I haven't touched the game's online in over 6 months because it's so shallow and unfinished. Those were the two fleshy good parts the game had to offer prior to release, and they still haven't happened.
Especially if you followed it for this long and kept getting strung along by their constant promise that it was coming soon. I still remember a couple months after release, people were still talking about it and sharing articles about how Heists were JUST around the corner. Just a couple more weeks. Sounds like some pretty shady shit in hindsight. Not a fan of how Rockstar handled this game at all. And now the rerelease on new consoles just screams of a cash grab. "Oh hey, remember that stuff we've been promising since before the game came out? Well it'll be here as soon as the game comes out on the new consoles. Just keep waiting guys! Buy our game again!"

Also, the single player game was not worth $65. You're fucking crazy if you think any single player game is WORTH $65, let alone this one, which advertised the ever loving piss out of its online features and was a huge part of the reason that so many people bought it.

Someone who managed to get a PS4 copy early has been streaming the game online.
Just like the early hype trailers for GTA Online, Rockstar fibbed a bit about their reveal trailers for the next gen versions. The hype about denser traffics and people only really occurs for single player while multiplayer is mostly just a few more cars added for traffic. First Person mode is really good though.
Also the newest patch for the game is a bit over 1 GB in size.
And in a non-surprising move, a lot of early streams are getting shut down by Rockstar while Twitter accounts of people reporting early streamers to Rockstar/Take Two are getting harassed by those upset.

Same like last year, the holiday update for GTA Online will add in snow and other Christmas themed items. Update itself arrives on December 23rd with the pack arriving in the morning for PS3/PS4 and the evening for Xbox 360/One.
Also rumored to actually include the long awaited heist missions.

This is why im a fucking beast I dont tell you what you wanna hear i tell you what you need to hear And if you like a game and i dont like it and its a garbage game i tell it to you i dont sugar coat things Im as real as it gets here. I could have easily milked GTA 5 for the views but i didnt like it And ill give you factual evidence of why the game is garbage to me. I come out and make a statement on my Twitter stating that GTA 5 was boring as fuck Because lets face reality all you do in GT5 IS ride around in a virtual world with virtual nerds thats all it is I come out on my Twitter saying that Saints row 2 and 3 are better because they were they were funner but anyways if your a hater i want you to Dance

Today we are happy to present a new trailer for the four-player co-op mode for Grand Theft Auto Online that allows players to plan, prepare and execute multi-tiered Heists across Los Santos and Blaine County. These will require tight communication and coordination, with players taking on specified roles at each point to accomplish multiple objectives on the way to each Heist's epic finale. Featuring new gameplay, new vehicles, new weapons, new clothing and much more.
GTA Online Heists are coming early in 2015 to PlayStation 4, PlayStation 3, Xbox One, and Xbox 360 and PC.

<font color=goldenrod>Have encountered a gamebreaking glitch in the Monkey Business mission on PS4. That's the mission where you start with a stun gun and then eventually guards show up and you need to switch to regular guns. Except I can't access the weapon wheel. Michael is fully loaded before starting the mission but I can't access any of his weapons for some reason. So I need to try to get through a shitload of armed guards with only a stun gun that takes 5 seconds to reload. Can't skip that part of the mission either.
Fuck.</font>
