Wasn't there passive mode on the last gen??

What irritates me the most about LG passive mode is that I would activate it upon death and the 10 second countdown would start immediately. So upon respawning I would have about 3 seconds of passive mode left and I had to wait out the cooldown before activating it again. :ouch:

Sometimes, it would just automatically deactivate as soon as I exited a vehicle.
 
Seems like a no-brainer, but you never know with Rockstar. If I replace a property with one less than half the cost, will I be credited the difference from the trade-in or does that extra cash just vanish into thin air? Not that it should matter (again, you never know with Rockstar), but I'm on PS3.

Credited IIRC
 
They even tell you which property to trade with, and how much will you be funded for the sale.

This feature's from when we got access to owning a second property.
 
It was even better when they had Specials for buying Property. I actually gained money once by trading property from a once higher price to the new lower price special.

I know, but I've only ever swapped with a property of greater value than that of the trade-in. My concern was that I wouldn't get money back if there was money to be gotten back (considering selling the most expensive high-end apartment ($500,000; $250,000 trade-in) in favor of the least ($200,000))--this would be pretty contemptible if it was intentional, but it could also possibly be a minor (where Rockstar is concerned) bug that hadn't yet been fixed.

Come to think of it--being able to simply sell properties would be awesome.
 

Nas' Mallard exploded when he hit me flying over Raton Canyon, yet somehow didn't die. My Titan didn't explode at all apart from losing 2 control surfaces and all my engines dying. I continued to glide the plane but ended up having to ditch in the Alamo Sea.
 
Securoserv thinks I have a Buzzard in my garage

...so they thought it'd be fun to deliver a Buzzard in a tunnel. Surprisingly I managed to un-tunnel it with little damage

I just had a worse one. They put one in the little tunnel area under Del Perro Pier. It immediately exploded when I started it.

Pffft.

I have had it several times now that I am close to the marina helipad, call Pegasus and get informed that my helicopter is available at the nearest pad.

At the Noose building.
 
I don't understand why Pegasus can't put the helicopter at the actual nearest helipad. If I'm at LSIA and I call, just put it there! Don't make me drive all the way to the hospital or the Vespucci heliport.
 
Pegasus has improved, though. I remember 75% of the time it used to almost never spawn if there was someone there. Now it almost always spawns, and I only need the refund like 10% of the time. There's also more spawn points at LSIA and Sandy Shores airfield.

We should be able to take the elevator to the roof of our expensive apartments and have the chopper spawn there. I know there would be some details to iron-out as theoretically 10 players in a lobby could get a Buzzard sent to the same helipad on the roof of the same building.
If you could call Pegasus whilst in your garage then it unlocked an option to go to the roof via the elevator or something.
 
That, a Helicopter, a car, and a sticky bomb if a player is in a car = useless last gen passive mode. I'm so happy to knowthat they actually made it work properly in current gen because it's a pointless feature for a last gen user like me.
