I'd imagine so but I can't say I've ever done it.

I'm not sure about that, either. The only chopper I've called in was Merryweather.

If you steal a parked car you shouldn't get a bounty on your head.

If they put a bounty for stealing the car simply get out and sticky bomb it and blow it up. If they care enough to put a man to death for a car they deserve to be screwed.

Something that bugs me about the bounty system is that, if someone is REALLY bugging you and you put a bounty on them, all they have to do is leave the game and go into solo online for 20 minutes or so to get that money themselves.
You're effectively giving them money for pissing you off or paying them to leave you alone. |

He's almost certainly talking about the NPCs doing this. I mean, I suppose you could still "get back" at the NPC, but it seems pointless and a little expensive. Probably cheaper just to shoot it until it blows or drive it into a river. |

The free Beach Bums pack is coming out next week. One of the new weapons is a broken bottle.
We'll be getting a ton of new clothing options too. I'm hoping for something that wont make my character look like a stripper but I wont hold my breath. |

Yeah, the NPCs. any time I go to steal a car now, if they are driving it, I will shotgun them in the face before stealing it.

I play mostly with a crew, so I don't normally worry about it. I'd probably be more pissed if I was in public lobbies, though.

Awful session last night. Collected a car for Simeone, attached a bomb in case anyone tried to Jack it from me, accidentally set it off as I drove to the mod shop. Decided to join a race to make a bit of cash, got kicked from the session seemingly because I was in the lead. Joined another race, 4 laps in the rain, frustrating/boring. Had a $3000 bounty put on me by an NPC so a guy followed me on a motorbike for 10 minutes without shooting at me once. That made me uneasy.
Basically wasted at hour of my life. |

Buy and customise a sports car. Then add an ignition bomb or a sticky bomb. Park it in a public freeroam near someone with a bounty on their head.
They'll see the fancy car and want it. You then either ignite it, if it's a sticky bomb or let the bomb go off by itself when they get in. Yeah, you'll have to be around $1000 to get the car back but you'll make a profit on any bounty over that much. |

I was thinking it would be a little cool if there were "sundrie" things to spent small amount of money on. Some usefull, others useless.
Fireworks ($5 each). Launch them in the air for a cool show or toss them at people, in cars, aim them at other players etc. At least when people grief you with them, it's something cool to look at. I can think of other things but fireworks are the main one. All frivilous stuff, obviously. Rope, handcuffs Maybe add in non-lethal ammo like a tranquilizer gun or paintball guns. Actually paintball guns or spray paint would be cool. I'm sure the spray paint would immediately be used to draw a penis somewhere. |

I'm sort of hoping the beach bum pack includes a super soaker.

The options boil down to business woman, biker chick, layabout and slut. You might be able to pull off a vague 80's look.
All the shorts are hotpants, all the skirts but one are miniskirts. There are certain items of clothing that look good but they have nothing that goes with them. So it'd looks like I ran through a washing line if I wore a bunch of different things that don't really go togethor. |

I want a working public transit system. I'd take a bus just for the hell of it. The subway is cool, though.

I'd like to see holiday themes. With christmas coming, maybe see decorations strewn about.
How about snow for weather? |

Kind of weird when you get a bounty put on you from beyond the graaaave. Quote:
Unless they balanced it out by having your blip invisable during your bus journey and your name not appearing on screen when someone is near you because, if someone is running down the street with an AK47 and you casually trundle past on a bus, they'll open fire as soon as they see your user name hovering above. Did I mention buses weren't originally in online, as far I could tell, and only appeared if you flew around downtown in a helicopter? Now they seem to have added them as normal, I think. The point being there are probably other vehicles that we can't get online but we can find a way to access them. |

Over reaction of the week: Parachuting after bailing from my aircraft. Aircraft explodes as it hits the ground and I get one star. SCRAMBLE THE FIGHTER JETS!!
I got blown out of the sky. Had another bad parachute experience when I jumped from a Merry Weather helicopter only to immediately parachute into the side of a hospital. Not the most graceful of scenes. |

The broken bottle is the weapon I'm looking forward to the most of the two new ones. The other being another pistol.
I'm curious to see what clothing and hair we'll get. Btw, what is the most customisable car online? I really want to go all out with customisation. I wish it was at least on par or better than Saints Row vehicle customisation. |

Had an amazing night last night. Had previously spent all but $14. I start off by getting in a Landstalker which Simeon needs, make an easy 15k on that, sell another to a chop shop for probably 5k, rob a few stores all and all I made around 33k in under an hour or so last night just from driving/cars/robberies but the crowning moment was when some pussy sat in a LSC until his time was almost up on his bounty.
He drives out and I had the sniper scope trained on the door, never had a chance. $7000 easy dollars. |
