^ Hm, a legit link. I thought it was Wham.

Anyway, I've got some $326000 now thanks to Pacific Standard and I think I'll go for a Kuruma as my next purchase. All it takes is two runs of Fleeca.

I've got a 9k bounty on me and a whole room of people that want it. Let me know ASAP if you want it and hopefully no one shoots me down in the meantime.

edit: bounty taken

The other day, I was riding in the side of a Valkyrie with a bunch of randoms, and someone shot a homing missile at us. I managed to get launched from the helicopter on impact while everyone else got killed by the explosion.

I always wondered what the interior looked like.

 

[Sage Ages]

I always thought the way you entered tanks was stupid. Literally every incarnation of the Rhino has you enter in some weird way.

Let's not forget that you can't let a friend use the mounted machine gun on top.

How do people do that teleport thing across the map without leaving the lobby?

Join a contact mission via the menu, then exit out of the contact mission.

 

[gnomefromnome]

Also....start a heist in your apartment, and exit from the Set Up board. You'll get a text from Lester or Ron to "Continue Set Up". Bring up your phone and accept. You'll be sent to your apartment in the heist room, and your car if you have one will be outside your apartment.

I must be doing somehting wrong as i always return where i was

Provided the mission has a forced start position. Missions that don't are the bane of my existence when joining from invites or the app, as it seems people try to come up with the most ridiculous places to initiate from.

 

[SomePlayaDude]

You can just use a game mode, and when it's time to choose cars/select your bets, quit.

That's a guaranteed teleport.. but also a room change. So more loading.

 

[m8h3r]

If you walk into a race marker but back straight out it normally teleports and keeps me in the same room.

 

[SomePlayaDude]

That's true, but I did mention this little tidbit..

when it's time to choose cars/select your bets, quit.

You won't get any Bad Sport points for doing this, rather than quitting during the activity.

So after a little investigation, it seems the "Live a Little" t-shirt may have been unlocked by spending $8,000,000 on Heist update vehicles--Casco, Savage, Kuruma (Armored), Hydra, Insurgent (both), Valkyrie (yeah, I wish I hadn't bothered getting that one ), and most recently the Dinghy...actually, I probably should have unlocked it sooner but some were discounted--but I still can't explain why it's nowhere to be found so that I can see/wear it.

Also, is the Vapid Stanier (Crown Vic) any kind of "cheater" vehicle for the Sedan class in races? I swiped one real quick to get to a target vehicle and it was much faster than I expected.

 

[Dan]

The Stanier is a bit of a slowpoke. You won't be winning any races with it.

Schafter is by far the fastest sedan, save for highway races, where top speed is more important.

 

[Sage Ages]

I always use the Warrener in sedan races.

 

[ProjectWHaT]

I'm using Broughy's spread sheet to pick what cars I'm going to buy and mod for racing. I've gotten a few million dollars from my friend.

 

[SomePlayaDude]

I haven't lost a single Sedan race ever since I got the MICHAELMOBILE!

The best part: to make it race legal, you don't have to spend 100k.. provided you find it on the streets. (impossible in current gen)

My Cm team would've DCed to force a fail without dying.

 

[Sage Ages]

Criminal Mastermind sounds pretty expensive.

You are super lucky that you didn't die. They could've easily taken you out. Thankfully, that mission is over and you can focus on the next ones.

Oh it wasn't me. I haven't been close to dying yet.

Haha, Beat me to it. I took a very similar pic the other night, just haven't had the time to upload.

 

[SomePlayaDude]

Decided to check out my stats, and uhh.. I'll let the snapshot explain.

HOW?!
