We're having a time with the new upcoming update, but R* seems to like having these discount weeks.

Nah saving up for the DLC cars gonna go on a massive spending spree.


EDIT: screw that idea I'm gonna buy a verlierer . Looks awesome . What's it based off ? A TVR ?

50% off one of the yachts? I'm listening.

I am checking it as we speak!

Edit

Orion boat starts at 3 million. It's the only one with a discount.

Well, that settles my question of which one to get! What does the Orion come with?

 

[Dennisch]

With a jetski and a boat. No chopper.

I have the cheapest version. No modifications. 3 million.

 

[SomePlayaDude]

So, if the Orion is 3 million..

How about the upgrade cost to a bigger better boat? If that's cheap too, or still the same price, it's a steal!

 

[Dennisch]

The Orion is the only one with discount. And the 2 helicopters are also cheaper. 1 million and 1.6. But I have only 700000 left so no chopper for me yet.

 

[MMX]

You might could buy the discounted yacht now, wait til the sale is over, trade it in on one of the better ones, and maybe come out with a slight discount.

Not willing to try it myself, as I think a yacht would be a waste for me, I rarely go into my apartments. I just need garages.

 

[Katiegan]

I've wanted a yacht for a while, but couldn't justify spending $8 million on one.

 

[Sage Ages]

How much protection and performance does the Turreted Limo even offer? I mean, it looks badass, but if it's not on a similar level to an Insurgent, then I won't justify purchasing it.

Not sure about tank shells, but it will shrug off an RPG or two.

 

[Marcus Garvey]

The Orion also does not have a hot tub, which is typically one of the key attractions for yacht purchasers. There is a reason it is the only yacht discounted, so beware.

This.

The main purpose for it will be Piracy Prevention.

The only use a bath tub has is crashjumping a boat or a jetski into it.

It's a cross between a TVR Sagaris and a Weismann.

Ah, damn. I wanted Elise to be a rich CEO who chills in a hot tub with a cigarette and a beer.

 

[SomePlayaDude]

Kind of like this?

But seriously: has anyone found a loophole to exploit to get a marginally cheaper Pisces/Aquarius using this 3 million? I know you all like it when I suffer*, so I hope this loophole is somewhere out there, still existent.

*I spent 10 million to make The Flying Dutchman as it is whenever I play

My playing style is very laid back, so I spend a lot of time just hanging out. I've been known to remain in the same spot for several game days and just watch the weather and sunrises/sunsets as if there was a moving painting on my television. I may be the most boring person to play online.

 

[Sting]

I actually really live me yacht. There are times where I set it as my in game spawn point just so I can live the baller lifestyle and chopper myself to the mainland. Its a fun place to hang out with friends when in game.

@Katiegan you need to get on some of the PacStan glitch sessions myself and @Leadfoot530 @STI9 @250 GTO do. Easy money in no time so long as the host times his exiting the game correct

@SomePlayaDude i feel your pain. Mine was going to be around that sort of price, at least in the 9mil range, but I think I managed to hold off until R* did that money off a yacht and customisation.

I would like to see a larger yacht come in with a moon pool, I think the term is. One of those open bottom rooms where you can launch a submersible from. Would also require an expanded interior so you could go from the current interior to the bowels of the ship to get to your sub.

I should be free this weekend to join in if there's free space.

Otherwise we'll just split into two teams, doing it simultaneously. I think we have enough players to do that...if everybody is online that is.

[Leadfoot530]

Thanks for the few runs today @250 GTO and @STI9. Glad we finally figured out how to do it without failing. Got back over the 2.5 million range, even over 2.6 if I remember.

Now if only I could find a green rusty Tornado! As 250 pointed out earlier, I think these things really are driving me insane For whatever reason, I simply can't get one to spawn. If anyone knows how to get one, I'm all ears.

I'll most likely be online tonight. Silent on chat, but deadly in game

Isn't cars spawning depending on what car you're driving? Classwise I mean. If you're driving a musclecar, there will be more musclecars spawning. I'm most likely wrong, but have you been driving a Tornado while looking for it? It just might increase your chance to get one

Been driving both my non-rusty hardtop and a few different rusty varients both with no luck. I think I've seen most of the varients besides the green one I'm looking for and I have yet to see a white one. I know they should spawn infront of the medical center/police station in Sandy Shores, bht I have yet to find that particular green color.

 

[Eunos_Cosmo]

Where is everyone's default spawn point these days? I'm weird, but I set mine to my 2 car garage out on the great ocean highway recently. Can't beat the location really. You can easily beat the facilities though.

I used to cycle it between my apartment at the Eclipse Tower and my house at Paleto Bay.

One of three locationa. Private Yacht, because yacht. Garage 28 (Forgot building's name, but the one practicly next to the FIB building, in shadow of the Maze Bank building.) because those are my most ecpensive and valued cars. As of recent, Garage 30 of the same building for my Sentinel XS, because I can grab it and go get a NPC modded Sentinel at 22:00. I hardly fool around anymore, I'm constantly going for more money.

 

[Dan]

My main spawn location was in my 3 Alta St.'s garage. That's where my favorite cars are stored, and it's in a good location, with the essential stores nearby. Los Santos Customs (Near Lester's factory and the one in Burton) is roughly a minute away, ignoring traffic lights.

I should be around after 8/830, if there's space!

 

[250 GTO]

This is what happens when @STI9 tries to bring a boat on a trailer to the top of Chilliad. With me and @Leadfoot530 in the boat.

The plan to "sail" down didn't work unfortunately

Least he actually got the boat to the top this time, unlike when he tried with just me in the boat haha
