and only pressed the triangle. had a weapon in my hand, maybe that helped?

That seems to work with the side doors of helicopters, so I assume that's the case with riding on the side of vehicles.

Joined Pac Standard with randoms who did the go-to-the-bikes-suicide-respawn-get-kuruma method and the driver accidentally ran over one of the crew members. Then Lester said "I like the way you operate". Made me giggle

got out of my t20 when a truck drove past me, taking off my door and knocking me to the ground.
then a 2nd truckdriver, who was behind #1 waiting, started laughing at me .....

made me laugh to o

Speaking of Pac Standard, I certainly deserve kudos for doing it for the first time ever last night amongst a GTPL posse, without even screwing up like I usually do under pressure.

 

[e rikkie]

Kudos given

Damn @leeislee my internet disconnected me from you

Rockstar needs to implement something like a $1k fee to bypass the 5 minute wait on calling your mechanic for a car.

Or just eliminate the wait entirely.

 

[xXKingJoshXx]

Or just eliminate the wait entirely.

That's even better.

 

[leeislee]

Sometimes i call the mechanic and ask for a car, it never arrives so i call him again only to be hit with the wait countdown!

Hey, it could be worse. They could have programmed him to actually drive your car to you, and he could glitch out and drive around the block five times until he realizes you were standing on the other side of the street.

Oh...wait...

Or drive around the entire map (this actually happened once)

I could swear the game forced me to pay for the mechanic and property utility twice tonight.

Wouldn't be surprised.

Well, that's because you pay him for the day, as in GTA day. Play long enough and you'll see him empty your wallet even more.

It's funny how many randoms spend so much time trying to spin you off the road in a race, crash into everyone and just completely ruin the basic point of racing when they could spend the same amount of time actually learning how to beat people in a race using actual racing skills.

They ruin everything, bounce their way around the track hitting every wall, cutting every corner then they give they track a thumbs down and go off and play a +$99999999999999999 ramp of death race deathmatch mayhem killzone scream fest.

Apparently there will be double $ and RP for Contact Missions coming up.

Contact missions also receive special bonuses from February 19 to 25. You can see a full list of them below:

UPDATE, Gamespot updated the link and removed those Double RP/$ missions that were listed.

 

[Gerarghini]

I'm going to destroy Gerald's missions, that's for sure

Not sure what happened but Gamespot updated their post and removed the Double RP/$ missions . I would wait for an official announcement from Rockstar.

That happens if I die in the meantime. It's infuriating, that's for sure.

Speaking of cars, I got my Banshee 900R impounded, ran a heist with randoms and chose my Bati, went back to freemode and the Banshee was sitting in my garage.

 

[SomePlayaDude]

The cops need a second impound, dammit.

Better yet: it should be at least on the northern side of San Andreas. It's a pain to just drive back to the city from Paleto after a failed cop shootout with a random traffic car.

I have found, that if you call Mors Mutual, then call the mechanic, he will deliver the vehicle.

Has anyone else tried to make Richard Petty's Plymouth Superbird NASCAR using an Imponte Phoenix ? You , know , with the big spoiler you. Can get for it ?

Might try it today .

Like this , but with a matte ultra blue mudslinger wheels , primary and secondary bodywork, custom tires ( the radial ones ) and removal of the Bug Catcher .

Just to make it look like this :

???




But first . I have to find one .

I never tried making Petty's Superbird but I do have a Phoenix that has the same looks as that. Basically the exact same as that but white instead of blue.

 

[SomePlayaDude]

If there's something I haven't made a photoshoot on, it might be my Phoenix.

Which is strange.. because it's one of my long running cars from 2013. I made mine look like the colors of one Ace Attorney, and I do have a Richard Petty replica on mod menu save slots.

 

[Sting]

My Phoenix got the Mad Max Interceptor treatment, and it will never change!

And coincidentally my Sabre has the yellow pursuit paintjob from the same film.

Totally off-topic! but for the peeps that were in the party last night, this is that youtube clip i mentioned about Uk GB etc.
