I still really want a yacht but it's just so hard to earn any decent amount of money in this game these days. Even a shark card wouldn't be enough value for money at this point.

Worse case scenario, eg. buying the most expensive everything. If you want to just focus your efforts on making money and only buy the basic neccesities and upgrades, you'll break even around 30-50 hours.

$/hour is slotted between Coke and Meth, but you can carry alot more product per vehicle which makes it easier to solo.

After the massive ban wave comes an almost equally massive unban wave. Apparently R* Support got nailed by a s:censored:storm of epic proportions yesterday and waved a white flag. :P

Edit: Looks like some are getting rebanned. The hell is going on?

Does anyone actually wear those things? I remember Katiegan having one awhile back.

Oh. Only 30-50 hours. That makes it better. o_O

Not the most time efficient business you can get, but it's probably the easiest to run, since you don't need to resupply and sell product (if you want a single delivery vehicle) as often as other businesses.

Just take over someone else's. sometimes when my yacht is moored way from where I am, I go and chill on someone else's.
 
Quick questions:
- while doing the Gunrunning resupply missions, are the NPC cars that spawn endless, or are there just like 4 sets of 2 cars then no more like I/E sales? I kept getting killed trying to deliver a van, I ended up just out running them but I'm just curious for future runs.
- when I'm afk I leave my guy watching TV in a safe house so I don't idle time out. Is there a way to avoid the time out in the bunker which has no TV? Aside from rubberbanding the controller that is. I tried sleeping in the bed but still timed out.
 
Something that happened yesterday's given me a really stupid idea for a motorsport in Online.

Anyone also on that convoy will remember when we went to the Redwood Lights Track to do some Big Rig Rallycross.

This is basically that, but it involves playing in teams of two and an MOC for each team. You can probably imagine where this going..

I have tested it, and with a slightly different circuit layout, it is very much possible to fit at least one MOC around. It'll be single-file most of the time, but it is possible.

For obvious reasons, I'm thinking a tournament structure is the way to go.

I shall gladly let someone borrow my MOC and be helicommentator again.

Let me guess. Kurumas? I think they spawn in limited waves, but I'm not entirely sure.

If you have the security upgrade, you can watch the security cameras. Otherwise, you can rubberband your controller, or just place it down so it leans on a thumbstick.

Thanks! I didn't get the security upgrade so I didn'the realize about the cameras. Good to know

Unfortunately I mostly play in solo public lobbies, otherwise I would do that. :lol:

I'm in! And I'd guess that some of the rest of the guys are in as well
 
Same thing. They just use a seperate vehicle model like the Benny's vehicles.
Well this is news to me, if true it does mean I'm ditching my weaponless Insurgent for the Weaponized one. :D

The Technical being converted would've surprised me if I didn't notice when stealing the mini gun Technical that it was called a Technical Custom so there'll likely be a conversion option for it or just added as parts in the MOC vehicle Workshop.


You're probably right, but I'm waiting just in case.
 
If anyone's needs a simple way to take a break without needing rubber-bands they can also do this.

If you have access to a CEO building, just go in the front door or the roof access door and when it says go to office or office garage(s), just leave it on that menu and you won't be AFK kicked. 👍

Of course I use the opptitunity to charge the controller which also stops the message of reconnecting your controller from popping up as well. ;)

It's a decent spot as you can go straight from there into your office for I/E or back out into the street quickly and check if you have a lobby to yourself. :D

As much as I don't feel like it's strictly necessary, I'd like to give credit where credit's due: those news are nearly two months old.

I will add to this, however, that it doesn't work if you drive into the marker at the garage entrance.


Also add me to the list of people who're still looking to complete Criminal Mastermind because I've gotten the short end every time.
 
he calls me about Prison Break every single goddamn session.

If anything that's motivation to get them done so it stops. And you get $10,000,000 as a side bonus.

Edit: In other news, I was watching Broughy's video on how supercars with downforce are now nowhere to be found in the top ten (that's right, the fastest downforce supercar is in 11th), and among the watch-this-next-thingy videos, I did see a headline belonging to a certain more-cancerous-than-ebola uploader, saying the unreleased cars will be released sometime this weekend. I haven't found any proof of it, I don't feel suicidal enough to watch his video, and, quite frankly, I don't know why R* would mix it up like this (or, actually, I do, because next Tuesday is, tadaaahh, 'Muricah Day!). Just thought I'd pass it on.

Well, we're supposed to be having some kind of event this weekend so it is possible, although I don't think they'll start dripfeeding them just yet.


Better be sales on some of the new stuff. I'm a cheapskate.
