There seems to be a bug where whenever my character dies, I respawn without the bulletproof helmet I was wearing, even though it is part of all my outfits. Does anyone know a workaround for this, besides manually selecting a helmet/outfit with a bulletproof helmet after it disappears?

Why is it that every time I click Quick Heist it's hosted by a level 50 or lower with an IQ equal to their level? Prison Break Finale is especially frustrating.

It will probably be fixed in the next update, I think you'll have to stick with selecting an outfit with the helmet for now.

Does anyone else think the shark card emails look like scams before opening them? "Shark - Get bonus money... Just give me your SSID and bank account info. You'll be rich in no time, my friend."

I'm a bit late to the party, but I finally purchased an office.

 

[Dan]

As have I...

I am so sorry. Couldn't think of a proper name. :/

 

[Stavingo]

Bought one too, called the nice guys

 

[ProjectWHaT]

Mine is called Evil Corp. It's a reference to a TV show.

If Broughy was on GTPlanet, he'd be proud, because this post right here... is my 1322nd post.

1322 Hype, no whey!

But in all seriousness, I just thought it was funny that I looked at my post count right at 1321, now 1322.

Why would you test class cars that you can't even use in a race??? Oh god I hate him lol

 

[GT5Power]

East Coast race, 2 laps. Second half of last lap and I'm running 1st in the ETR1.

Some guy who has been helped massively by the Gods of Catchup suddenly comes up behind me in a chromed out Osiris () and just as we get to a narrow path over water, he tries to pull a PIT on me but I'm not a fan of that so I slam the brakes, he swerves in my direction and plummets into the beautiful ocean My face

On another note, right now I'm in a prison break lobby where a level 21 is acting up, even though the host was kind enough to give us all 25%...

Edit: Turns out he wasn't refusing to click Ready because of his cut, it was because of his role... He ended up getting Prison Officer... Guess who's going to be babysat again...

Edit2: Live updates from the heist

Spoiler

Take 1: The officer shot at the very first guard he saw. We still made it to Rashkovsky, but the officer got creamed by NOOSE afterwards.

Take 2: After I texted him to not charge in like a goon or shoot the guards, everything went well at first, until some guard shouted "You mother:censored:" for no apparent reason (is that supposed to happen?) and the end was the same as Take 1.

Take 3: Began like Take 2, only this time the officer got -I kid you not- 1-shot by the guard, then the game spawned him amidst three other guards who made short work of him.

Take 4 (Role Change): I was the prisoner again, but the officer was the highest-ranked player in the lobby (129) and he obviously knew his stuff. Little did we know that the level 21 squeaker was terrible at flying a Velum, so we failed again. The level 129 ragequit.

So erm, has there been any discussion on the potential future DLC leak by SOFTSECRETS ?

 

[GT5Power]

@Sting If you're talking about the Biker DLC leak, I don't think there has been any particular discussion on that, but taking into account that the person who discovered it has been correct in every instance so far, I'm willing to bet that it will come out pretty soon.

Anyway, I've been grinding a lot these past few days and I bought an office (on 50% discount ) and this beauty, which is now sitting in my 26th and last personal vehicle slot.

Spoiler

Yes, the 811 is by no means the fastest super, but it is fast enough to be able to mop the floor with all the RE-7Bs and Tyruses (?) that are running rampant in races. Plus it looks amazing.

If this means that biker crews (Lost MC - style) will become even more popular and run rampant in lobbies, well... no thank you. It would be an interesting DLC though.

Law and order DLC
(Police free roam and vehicles)
*Purchase police vehicles to activate free roam mission

Honestly, I already see players using police vehicles to make newbies' lives hell, unless I haven't approached this update as I should have.

The Luxury Living DLC
(Mansions & Pets)
*Purchase Mansion to *purchase exotic pets (Mansion grounds only)

Mansions? Even though the community has been asking for such an update since the very beginning of the game, I still have difficulties believing that they will actually add them, especially since they haven't done so all this time. Pets make this even harder to believe.

The Blaine County and Paleto DLC
(Animals in free roam)
New warehouses and properties to *Purchase!

Don't they dare ruin the peacefulness of Paleto Bay. Put a single high end house there and the squeakers in chromed-out supercars will start flooding in... The Bay will never be the same

North Yankton and Liberty City (Online Map expansion)
$£ Paid DLC 1 2017 sept

This seems big... but there's more than a year left until then so how could anyone know already? Also, the fact that it's paid stinks for me.

San Fierro and Las ventures
(Online Map expansion)
$£ Paid DLC 2 2018 oct

Same as above, although in my opinion it would be more logical to reverse the order of these two...

It's intriguing how every one of those DLCs caters to the expectations of at least a part of the community. I would expect more "irrelevant" DLCs from R*, so I agree that we should take this with a grain of salt.

Responses in bold.
