It’s more of a supplement for other businesses, rather than a full blown business. If you have other businesses, go for it. If not, I wouldn’t bother.

Will try soon then, I have some businesses on my 'fair' account because I did some car duplication glitches a few years ago. Otherwise i'll find out on hacked one.

I think it's worth it just for the change in tone. Great to see Tony back, a character with more charisma than nearly any other in the GTA.

Is there any way to get these characters to stop calling me every 2 seconds with no option to decline the call? I get it, Nightclubs are a thing you didn't need to tell me 64,000 times in 4 days.

I think you can turn the sound off on the phone, makes it a little less annoying.

But did you have to pay 100k or have to chase a Enus up to Blaine county only to drive back to LSIA and do a half mile drive to your nightclub with them?

Hehe, only the first time. To rebook them you just select them from the nightclub management thing on the computer. It costs 10k to rebook the djs.

 

[SomePlayaDude]

The real purpose of buying a Blimp.

Rejoice, one and all, for the.. "treasure" hunt R* teased on Tuesday is here! Such excitement!

If you played the last one, you should be familiar with the concept. Except they're cutting the fun and games of trying to decipher the location and then figuring out where the heck the piece of paper is.

The rewards should be fairly familiar too. Apart from the weapon. That does something special.

Looking forward to the treasure hunt when I get on over the weekend, according to GTAForums there is more than one bounty to find and
rewards for each different one you complete.

 

[Flash_Sweden]

The new “treasure” hunt is here. It’s a lot easier than the last one. I earned an easy $250k when I was done, and as an addition to that, I got an extra 100k when logging in 👍
The weapon is kind of cool, but I don’t think I’ll ever use it from now on.

Reports V is the 3rd game in history to surpass 100 million copies.
https://screenrant.com/grand-theft-auto-5-copies-sold-100-million/

Thought this bit was interesting, though I have a feeling Doomsday in hindsight, is way more liked.

Another part of the Grand Theft Auto V's longevity has been its ties to Grand Theft Auto Online. As the multiplayer partner to the main game, Take-Two went on to confirm that the recent GTA Online: After Hours expansion even did better than 2017's Doomsday Heist, which in itself was a record-breaker. Either way, the Grand Theft Auto name still has plenty of rounds in its chamber.

Inb4 "so much for GTA Online being 'dead'".

Which, before anyone gets any funky ideas, I've never said. At least not in a way that's meant to be taken seriously. I've been the harbinger of doom for public Freemode sessions - which is something different entirely - but.. finish that thought on your own. And then do everyone a favor and keep your ending to yourself.

That said, I'm kind of surprised it took this long for it to reach 100 million. I mean, it's been a common sight on the best-seeling-games-of-the-week lists since forever, and pretty much always in the top 10 - and frankly, given the amount and variety of content on display, it's not hard to see why. I mean, safe for ginormous mecha-dinosaurs that breathe Orbital Cannon strikes, GTA Online's got just about everything. It has, however, dropped quite a few places on the sales charts recently, which.. maybe they've finally run out of people to sell the game to. That'd certainly explain the price drop.

Anyone knows how to trigger the treasure hunt? It didn‘t show up in a 2h session yesterday

I got a mail almost as soon as I logged in. Didn’t do anything special.

Apparently, pistol-whipping can still kill a person that's wearing ballistic armor. Not sure whenever you'd find yourself in this situation, but that information is there if you need it.

 

[Eunos_Cosmo]

I really wish the melee weapon controls were better(or, rather, I wish there were controls) You are at the complete mercy of the animation team with all of them. Smashing up developer vehicles for Tony is an unsatisfying mess.

I haven’t used melee combat in a long time (Especially against another player) but I hate how clunky it still feels. Obviously it’s a massive improvement over GTA IV’s system, but the current one has little to no fluidity, and locks you into an animation that can get you killed.

There’s been countless times where another player appeared to be out of melee range and would kill me before I could react. They could be ten feet away and throw one punch, but my character will get hit three times. During each punch I’m being stunned and cannot bring up a weapon to defend myself. Perhaps this isn’t a melee glitch but a lag/de-sync issue instead. Either way, it’s frustrating to deal with.

You know you can shoot the cars up right?

Speeds the whole process right up,

• Pull up to the scene
• Put a round in the car to get everyone’s attention.
• Make the two workers who would try to attack you reconsider their life choices by pointing a gun at them.
• Once cleared out, equip your preferred gun and go to work.
• Repeat 1-4 until the jobs done. 👍

You're harshing my role playing vibe, man. I've been trying to do the tony work without weapons or killing. The supply destroying missions are a little harder....steal truck, drive into ocean.

I definitely haven't used an orbital strike to destroy a few cases of beer and tapas. Maybe.

I think you are right. Usually spamming square (dodge) works for me. Allows you to counter as well. Not sure if counters do more damage or not.

It just happened to start now. As usual I got killed by the first target

I love that me and a friend (non gtp) were also in your session and we laughed as we both got the same person on our bounty at the same time and delivered at the same time. He drove off, I was leaving Maudes to see you arriving with him a 3rd time. Slippery suspect I think.

Wasn't by knuckle dusters by chance, was it?

I lost of my 5th on the first attempt because of them. Didn't think he would take me out in 2 hits without armor.

 

[CSMDuty11]

The B-11 Strikeforce is out.

More importantly free Nightshark week ...And the Revolter too.
And yes, this time the free cars do actually seem to be free on PC unlike the Christmas Hermes
...But you can get as many as you want.

 

[m8h3r]

Sorry what?

You can make it even easier by using the machine guns on your Deluxo. If you have one.

 

[Vic Reign93]

Yep, Revolter and Nightshark are available for the rock bottom price of $0.

Little tip, If you already have a Nightshark before today, if it’s worth over 800k,(893k in my case) sell it, get a free Nightshark, build it back up which’ll be about 250-300k depending how you spec it up and you’ll come out with a healthy profit. :tup:

Oh decent. Can't complain at a free car.

Allow me.

Clears throat*

“🤬 you C*! That’s not the car I wanted to get! You:censored:🤬🤬🤬🤬!!! Why can’t you 🤬🤬 give me all the things that I want!?! It’s not fair that others have stuff that I haven’t! Go 🤬🤬 you 🤬🤬!!”



You all know that that kind of people will find something to whine about

I’m not one of those people though.

 

[SomePlayaDude]

*logs in for free cars*

*notices ammo for Mk 2 weapons are low*

*heads in and flying about in my Avenger*

*guy in a LAZER*

*shoots missiles*

*cute*

*takes my time to engage autopilot and head in the hold*

*goes on turret*

*watches him shoots missiles when he should use the explosive cannon*

*bored, bring him down*

*guy doesn't give up, goes in oppressor*

*comes back to me*

*shoots missiles*

*cute*

*round 2-*

*no round 2, he got obliterated*

*he quits room*

*wow*

*back to it, buys ammo for my Mk2 weapons in my Avenger (RIP Avenger Crate Glitch)*

I'm really surprised there are people who have no idea about the Avenger's general existence to bring down clowns like these.. and bait Orbital Cannons.

Saw this kind of thing on the Facebook announcement of 1 free la liga and 1 free serie a game a week. The guy said that it's not actually free because you have to pay for your data. Cant win.
