How do we use melee weapons on bikes now? Do we have to be in a motorcycle club or special event/mission?

 

[Anathema]

On PS4 you hold X, then press L1 or R1 depending on what side you want to swing at. Xbox is A, then the corresponding shoulder buttons. PC I have no idea.

Hold X/A/X.
Press either L1/LB/left click to whack to the left, or R1/RB/right click to bring your hate to the fella on the right.

Doing it with throwables or no weapon will prompt a kick instead. Using a melee weapon does high to instant kill levels of damage to any pedestrian/rider, presumably based on strength.

How do you get your strength stat up?

How do you get your strength stat up?

Melee fighting and sports. I'm given to understand grinding hole 6 and only hole 6 at the golf course is one of the faster methods, and there's the option to kill paramedics in Davis during a non-wanted mission, as they just keep running over to check on those you've just killed.

You could also start a mission and beat up people in the strip club or go to the hospital (main one, near Grove st I think) where the medics keep respawning. They fight back and if you start a fire the firefighters join in too. (Blow Up 3 is best for the medic method)

Thanks. I thought it worked like in TL&D, but nothing happened when I pressed square/O.

Spoiler: Make sure you're hearing The Imperial March play as you push this spoiler button

Was at 5 million just yesterday.. oh how today has been pretty fruitful.

 

[STI9]

PATCHED

Spoiler

This works

 

[Flash_Sweden]

I have try that when I get home after work. That way, buying a business for my MC wouldn't feel as expensive. I might be too cheap to actually buy it, but extra cash have never hurt anyone

My sultan RS is selling for 699k after swapping the stock wheels for 75k Gold Benny monstrosities.

Apparently the Donk can sell for over 800k @Jahgee

 

[GT5Power]

@STI9 Can you verify that it works?

Nice! 👍

LSC should charge 800k to let it enter the shop

the scrapyard on the other hand....

 

[STI9]

@STI9 Can you verify that it works?

Yes, I have tried it but according to people of sevensins it may be hotfixed today.

 

[STI9]

This has been around since the biker dlc dropped and some have made over 100M. Character swap glitch all over again.

 

[Dan]

Holy 🤬 that thumbnail.

 

[SomePlayaDude]

According to what I know, PC users have it worse, being able to only sell vehicles worth 130k at most.

 

[Flash_Sweden]

I just tried it, and no, I don't have a duplicate in my garage Oh well, it was worth a shot

 

[SomePlayaDude]

Fixed already? Aww.

Consensus says its gone now. Well that was short lived.

 

[SkyArkz23]

dang. i was just about to log on to try it too...

 

[STI9]

Its been hot fixed guys. I think because I got into a session before the patch was implemented it has no effect on me. If I switch sessions I wont be able to do it anymore.

 

[Anathema]

There went $530,000 for the biker shop dude...

 

[GT5Power]

I'll just leave this here again...

 

[Flash_Sweden]

It's no problem getting the Lights out-award by killing NPC's while wearing Nightvision-goggles...as long as you are in a POPULATED public lobby

Anyway. Going from Sandy Shores airfield up to Paleto Bay in a Savage took care of it.

Now, I'm off to get some of those chrome wheels

3 slots available for MC contracts. In a private public session with @Flash_Sweden @Tex @250 GTO @Sting

 

[Leadfoot530]

TFW your friends are having fun on GTA, and you're sitting on a college campus dreading the fact that you don't leave until 10:00 at night...

If you guys are still on in a few hours when I get home from work I will join in. I'll look for you then

 

[Marcus Garvey]

@Marcus Garvey How big is the loss when closing them? Do we get any cash back, or is it a 100% loss?

As an update to closing the businesses; once closed you will be annoyed by incessant phone calls from T. Baggins to restart the business. I hope an option to cut the crap follows, but I'm not optimistic on that matter. As well, when the game has decided it's time for their scripted(in a sandbox game) raid to occur on your business it will start instantly with zero notice. Much the same as your staff/utility charges occurring before you even close the Select Menu/Interaction Menu after 'founding' your MC, the raid is already going on as you sign in and prompts you to go rescue the workers and save the stock immediately. Naturally, I laughed and spoke aloud; "Go ahead and shut it down, you're breakin' my heart" as the raid was ongoing.

You get multiple emails and phone calls even if you don't buy a business. Bitch keeps telling me that I haven't even gotten on the secure computer but I've been on it twor or three times and he still won't leave me alone.
