I've seen NPCs fly in planes before, but never in the Cuban.

My internet is still down after a month and 4 days (shameful...) and I'm also going on trips so unfortunately no playtime for me for now. What's new?

 

[m8h3r]

I think ive just encountered the strangest glitch I've ever seen.

My cargobob goes invisible apart from the hook and I can fly through everything including the floor, when I go through the floor though it gets kinda crazy.

Aside from the new adversary modes and new cars, not much else IIRC.

Two Pegasus vehicles, the Karin Technical and Insurgent Pick Up can now be converted to personal vehicles in the MOC, each with their own researchable upgrades.

As for rich "civilians", you have the Vagner (Aston Martin Valkyrie) which is currently the 2nd fastest Supercar around Bourghy1322's test track, same story for the Cheetah Classic (Ferrari Testorossa) in the Sports Classic class.

Also in Sports Classics is the Torero (Lamborghini Countach) in 5th place and the last and more recent car which is a little less civilian and more stylish dictator transporter is the HVY Nightshark which is quite a hybrid in GTA Online.

It's got armour plating options, but you don't need a MOC unless you want a livery on it, it's got machine guns mounted in the front bumpers and while not great, can still get the job done.

It's very agile and has quite good pushing power, but unlike its bigger brothers the insurgents, it doesn't have a unique symbol on the map to let others know what your driving, similar story to the Dukes O Death, Armoured Karuma and I can only assume the upcoming Ardent which'll also have fixed front machine guns will also appear normal on radar too.

The Nightshark hasn't been tested by Broughy yet, but for the Off Road class it's in I'll be very surprised if it isn't one of the fastest cars in that class.

tfw you join an Overtime Shootout lobby and most of the people are afk.

 

[gnomefromnome]

Played the Shootout last night, wasn't too bad. Our team started 2nd, which was an advantage. Score is tied? No problem, last person to go on our team only has to land on the largest target. Easy 1 point and tie breaker.

 

[m8h3r]

I've done a few overtimes, 3 time now I've gone 5 vs 1 and all 3 times I've won. I can consistently get 3 and probably miss 1 out of 5 if I'm going for 4. To be honest I like being on my own in it.

 

[Sage Ages]

I have a discount for the Luxor Deluxe. I'm gonna go broke if I don't stop looking at it.

 

[m8h3r]

I've been considering saving up and buying a "vanity" item, either the biggest Yacht or the Gold Luxor plane.

 

[Sage Ages]

I'm still considering it. On one hand, the Nimbus does pretty much the same thing for 1/7 of the price. But, the gold Luxor is the ultimate display of wealth in-game, and pretty much an instant-win in Criminal Damage.

 

[Marcus Garvey]

When's that guided tour going to happen?

It has been almost three years, but perhaps again in the future.

On the topic of private jets in GTA V, I'm amazed they haven't introduced large jets like *Gulfstream IVs and above or **Dassault Falcons to really stand out. All we have is the Learjet 45 (Shamal/Luxor), Cirrus Vision SF50 (Vestra), and Cessna Citation X/Model C750 (Nimbus) (Not saying the C750 is a bad plane; I personally love them, but in a game like GTA where you shoot for the stars, a C750 is practically at the halfway point for luxury aircraft). I'm not including the MilJet because that's a CRJ-200, which isn't a luxury aircraft by any stretch of the imagination, and it has Air Force markings on it. Something that would be kind of cool to see is private jets with the same paint schemes as our yachts and complementary helicopters.

*Gulfstream IV:

**Dassault Falcon 900:

I would say the yacht because you can get ammo from it. But that's purely my opinion.

 

[Sage Ages]

One of these things is not like the others.

Yeah, Jahgee set an awesome laptime!

 

[VYPA-SQUAD_Ace]

Hey, A long time ago, I made two races from MCLA on GTA Online.. Is there a way you guys can search races by Username or Track Name? I haven't been on the PS4 in so long, I'd forgotten how to do it.

But I had made Old Route 66 and 10 and 405 is 110.

 

[m8h3r]

What ammo can you get? Is it all ammo or just a couple of select weapons?

 

[Sage Ages]

Rifles, LMGs, snipers, and the homing launcher.

 

[m8h3r]

Rifles, LMGs, snipers, and the homing launcher.

That's actually not a bad coverage, the Rifles, sniper and homing launcher ammo can run up a fair bill if you don't restock often. Suddenly you're doing a contact mission and it's "buy all ammo - $87,382". Shame the stickies aren't there too but I am considering it.

 

[Flash_Sweden]

Well, the cost is the same, wether you restock before every mission, or if you restock once/day. The only difference is the numbers you see that you're paying. The biggest downside is that we're not able to restock the explosive sniper ammo before a mission

You can filter to see your own creations. Just make sure the console type is set to the correct option.

Okay, thanks.

Hey, Mr CEO buzzard delivery guy......

Inside the garage at Maze Tower?! Screw you

(Taken with phone, I was being lazy)

 

[rallymorten]

..how did you even trigger it to spawn in there?

I mean for crying out loud, even when exploring it in the Creator the game's fully aware you're not supposed to be able to put stuff in there.

 

[Sage Ages]

At least it didn't spawn in a wall.

 

[Sage Ages]

In classic R* fashion, the red dot sight on the Assault Rifle Mk2 doesn't line up with the barrel in first person. 👍

This is only a graphical error as far as I can tell, but it's still annoying.

Edit: The large scope and the holographic sight work fine. It's just the dumb micro RDS that does it.

 

[rallymorten]

Just in case people were wondering how slow the Oppressor makes everything else feel, it gets a 52.6 in Broughy's testing.

So to recap, it's about 10% faster in a straight line than anything else *and* about 10% faster than the previous quickest vehicle around the track.

With that in mind, the decision to not have it count as a land vehicle and thus be able to do time trials and races and stuff with it probably has its reasons.

Edit: Called it. Broughy lists top speed at near-as-makes-no-difference 140 mph - ~120 normally, ~150 when boosting.

I've recently shut down my bunker business and just focused on my weed farm for now, and while the resupply missions have been pretty straight forward, the other day I came across one where I had to start a bar fight with The Lost in Tequi-la-la. I could only use fists since, well, machine guns aren't exactly allowed in clubs and bars. Except this rule didn't seem to apply to The Lost, and they killed me several times with broken bottles, pool cues and knives. How the 🤬 am I supposed to take on a bunch of bikers with knives armed with nothing but my fists? I got the stuff in the end, but not without dying six or seven times. Kinda bugged me how unfairly matched that mission was, but exploring the inside of Tequi-la-la was cool.

You have to follow the 5 D's of dodgeball: dodge, duck, dip, dive and dodge
You can just run in and sprint round in circles throwing the odd punch, may take just as long to punch,die,repeat.
Its still one of my favourite missions though.

I tried to dodge, but I had three guys on me at once most of the time.


I just know someone's gonna quote that out of context.
