The first slot being the one in the back left yeah? It's got one of my favourite cars, but not exactly an expensive one, the El Picador (Hey, I've gotta have a Ute).

I have a Roosevelt :\ in that slot...

 

[Snorevette]

When I lost my Bodhi it was in the 10th slot, though I think it may have been to do with forgetting to buy insurance (though I'm still almost certain I did... )

Also, I just had series of hilarious incidents with some guy in a SWAG crew who was camping Simeon's garage involving me splattering him in a Frogger then proceeding to blow him sky high with a Buzzard about 8 times when he tried to harass some people on a sailing trip before he managed to bring me down with a shotgun when I got too close... followed by him crashing about a mile off the coast when he tried to chase the guys on the boat.
The point of this whole thing (other than it being great) is, do any of you remember the GT5 anti-troll squad that never really took off? Why don't we make a GTAV anti-d:censored:bag squad? Like out-trolling the many garage-camping, explosives-spamming, car-ramming randoms that make up most sessions with skill, cunning and a dash of lethal military force and heavy weaponry. I'd be up to make a crew.

What makes those cars dissappear, "thieves" destroying it? As I said, I haven't had it happen.

Probably Cloud issues.

R* needs to make some fixes to the capture creator... it's great and you can make some really cool situations with it, it's almost a mission creator (I don't even know if they actually have an option to make it only one team, I didn't try it, but they should make it an option), but there's 3 main things that I noticed.

1. No weapons selection in the details menu means you have to either place weapons down or start unarmed.
2. You can't test the respawn areas because you're constantly invincible in testing mode.
3. Some of the features outright don't work (thankfully not the major ones) - there's an OPTION to turn the emergency services off but you still get wanted levels.

 

[KM964]

Then LSC was closed or your vehicle wasn't tunable.

Here's a list of what exactly happened:

1. I go to the Vinewood LSC. No wanted level. Nobody killed anyone near there. The only other people in the lobby were in somebody's apartment. It was also invite only. My Stinger GT was legitematly bought months ago.

2. The garage door opens as normal.

3. Once the car got far enough inside, it stopped and the brake lights were on for a second or two.

4. All of a sudden, instead of the cutscene triggering, the brake lights go off and I'm able to move around inside LSC

5. After I go outside, the garage door can't be opened. You have to drive away and come back.

I went to the LS River LSC and it happened as well. I also jacked a random car near each location and this happened with them. The fix, strangely enough, going to my garage, pulling out another car, putting back that car, and getting the Stinger again.

Anyone tried this on PS3 yet?!

He does say "[...] or PSN", so it should work there too. 👍

 

[Snorevette]

Protip - don't ever make a capture based off of the race to grab the Ferrari from 2F2F with 4 teams, because driving up and down the highway from Paleto Bay down to Roger's Scrapyard takes about 12 minutes and isn't very fun to do 4 times when you have to test it with 4 teams.

 

[Davidies]

If you ever have a bounty, go get a Submersible. Go down to roughly 460-480 feet (Any further and you die) and stay there. It's great fun messing with people, and you get to keep your bounty.

 

[Dean]

But where do you find the Submersible online?

If you find the ''Cape Catfish'' LTS on the east side side of the map, at the sea, you'll see it in the dent that the LTS is just above. I don't have a picture, but I could get one if you want.

 

[Jahgee]

The Merryweather dock has one IIRC

 

[gnomefromnome]

Good news! The Capture bonus $ and RP has been extended for another week! I've leveled up my 2nd PSN account to 39 in no time.

 

[Dan]

The Merryweather dock has one IIRC

There is? I thought the only one there was an unobtainable texture that is on stands. I never saw the yellow Minisub in the water. Is it somewhere away from the helipad?

 

[Snorevette]

I always see subs at the Vespucci docks...

 

[Dean]

It seems subs spawn in a lot of places... I'll try them all out next time I'm on GTAO. 👍

 

[Snorevette]

More protips! Sanchez motorcycles explode with just as much vigor as ordinary vehicles, so don't shoot them with an MG when you're right next to two of them. Golly, I should make a guide to GTA.

 

[Davidies]

The whole GTA community on GTP should make a guide. You should know, a lot of brains are better than a singular one!

It's inside the dock warehouse thingy.

 

[Vince]

There is also one here.

It's off of that road near the light house, with the dock and a few beached boats at the end. It won't be directly in that little bay, but off to your left there's another small beach where it's located.

In other words, it's where you meet Steve Hanes and Davie for the Humane Labs and Research mission.

Where did you find that map?

I literally Googled "GTA V Map" and just picked the preferred map. Here's the full map.

Thanks @gnomefromnome, @ibnumgt1, and who ever Unwired-Eddie is on GTP, I was able to abuse Rooftop Rumble today to get from level 91 to 100. It took all afternoon but I can finally get 100% vehicle armour and an RPG. Your services made things a lot faster.👍

I just came on here to thank you for getting me from level 5 to 26. Worked out okay all-round I guess.

Was that your first GTA online profile or your second or something?

 

[somebody]

Was that your first GTA online profile or your second or something?

My first glitched and couldn't be saved. This is my second attempt.

 

[Snorevette]

I'd quite like to speedgrind up to level 70 at some point... then this will finally be my highest level character (and I'll be able to get a rhino tank )

EDIT - Aaand now my game is freezing. AGAIN. I suspect it's a PS3 issue because GT6 was freezing and glitching as well.

EDIT 2 - Crisis averted with a blast or two of compressed air into the disc drive. A tad unconventional and potentially harmful solution yes, but it worked.
