A couple of yacht-related issues:
- If your yacht is moored at LSIA and you call the captain for the chopper / Dinghy, it will spawn at the docks.
Which makes no sense at all because the docks are nowhere near the LSIA spot. So if you're already at the airport when you make the call, this can be quite irritating. - There's this stupid glitch that kicks you out of your yacht chopper once you get in, and you can't use it anymore. It's really annoying e.g. if you've just spawned on the ship and want to do Sightseer or something like that.

What's with Hostile Takeover? Yesterday it was Sightseer then Hostile Takeover, but in VIP Work it seems the timer gets higher so you're almost never able to start it after finishing Sightseer.

Hostile Takeover has a 20 minute cooldown and Sightseer has a 10 minute cooldown.

It doesn't seem to be consistent though. I never could do a Hostile Takeover last night, because everytime I checked, it had 5 minutes to go, while Sightseer would be acting normal. I'd go do a quick mission or 5 minute race, and come back, HT still had 5 minutes to go, and Sightseer was almost ready to kick off.

Completing Sightseer causes a 5 minute cooldown to do any other non-PVP VIP activity.
Do Hostile Takeover(1st time may cause the 5 min clock to start), then do Sightseer, wait 10 minutes, do Sightseer again, wait 5 minutes, do Hostile Takeover, then Sightseer should be immediately available. From there you start over again. If you leave the room or do a mission/race/etc it can cause the 5 minute cooldown clock to start again. That may be a glitch, or what R* intended I'm not sure. If you just repeatedly do Sightseer and never wait the 5 minutes you likely will never be able to do Hostile Takeover. Sightseer does pay better, though.
The double pay ends today iirc, for those wanting to grind the higher payouts.

Just extremely happy that I'm at a good position for R* to introduce something that will be bait for the Shark.. cards.
Strangely enough, no funny VIP name popped up today, and I reused Dirty Dan again. There's so much I can do with 15 characters. As my timer went out, I have to remind myself to put "John Cena" the next time I rip the VIP.
But what I do want is suggestions. Come at me, scooter brother.

I was jumping rooms, and I can conclude that I had had no issues being Chuck Norris yesterday.

I earned a good 430k in two hours today, 43000 of which came from an exciting Sightseer game. After my friend / bodyguard crashed his chopper while trying to pick me up and take me to the final package, I just said "🤬 it", called my Panto and drove through a mess of two entire organisations trying to get me. Felt good to collect that package. 
In other news, I am now at $1639110, which is just 3k short of my target (getting the Banshee 900R while being able to be a VIP). So I'm only one Drop Zone match away.

Imagine GTA where you start off in a city and over time your actions change the city. Every bullet hole and every bit of damage leaves its mark.
Every burnt out car is still there and every crumbling building where you crash your jet into is still there, bodies line the streets. Imagine the visible sight of all the carnage we've caused in over 2 years of running around LS!

Til Death Do Us Part is interesting.
It's a 2v2v2v2 that focuses on really being with your partner. For starters: you regenerate health, have headshot immunity and have some juggernaut level damage resistance only when you're nearby your partner.
I like how it also promotes offense defense rotation and focus fire.

Sure it was a level 10 and not 100? It'd be pretty hard for a LVL 10 to get a Buzzard unless A: They found one that was spawned by a higher level player or B: It's the secondary character of someone who transferred money so they could buy the Buzzard on that character.
Helicopters don't spawn for those under Level 12 and Buzzards don't spawn until around Level 42 (I think).

His mate was a 44 ( it was unlocked at 43 ) , his mate bailed , I usually try to fly through parachutes because it's funny watching them helplessly fall , and his mate was flying , like a level 12 to be more accurate.
Either way , a buzzard killing a hydra ? Really ?

I killed a Hydra in a Buzzard while doing VIP jobs a week or so ago. The guy was just constantly circling me and trying to lock on instead of going away and coming back to lock on or get a good aim with the cannons. I kept firing rockets at him but he evaded them all so eventually I was able to put a few rounds with the cannon into him and that slowed him down enough for my rockets to hit.
