I noticed something weird yesterday. I did some jobs and noticed one of my stats raised up. (You know how you get the on screen prompt saying 40/100 right?)
I just got one for HEALTH?!
20/100

I have had one for awhile but haven't gotten it to work yet. I wonder if when you upgrade your engine enough and transmission if you can create enough torque to pop the wheelie.
something to look forward to!

So, not only my level went down from 50 to 44 but my 795 thousand dollars car disappeared. 10+ hours in the trash. I think I'm done with the online for now. Too much bullshit.
Yeah, would love to be able pop wheelies at the start of races..!

Imo Base Invaders, a Ron mission, is pretty easy for the money earned. Set it to easy, land near the jet closest to the ocean, take cover behind the red and white checkered box and shoot the guys in the huge army van who roll up. Take the van and chuck sticky bombs on each of the jets as you drive past then after blowing them up drive straight into the hanger with the cargobob and park directly next to the driver's side of it. Get in the heli and you're home free, for a smooth 25k. Takes maybe 5 minutes with practice.

i can't seem to find a straight answer, sorry if this has been dished out before. If I buy a Rhino online, I know it won't be stored in my garage. But if it blows up, or I leave the game and come back is it still available in my stash? Like can I use my mechanic or the web browser to have another one show up? Or do you have to pay the 1.5million or whatever it is every time you want to spawn the Rhino?
You call a contact on your phone and it's delivered I believe, costs 1K.

How expensive of an apt do you need when Lester tells you he has big jobs coming in?
Cheapest High End Apartment is 200-205k
I assume it is the same for planes, helicopters, and boats then?
Kind if wish they just let us buy a hanger with heli pad just like normal garages, there's 3 airfields in total and a bunch of hangers at the airport.

I managed to do A Titan Of A Job on normal solo once, using both lives. I tried after and couldn't even get into the plane lol so I doubt I can repeat it reliably solo.
Edit: Is cash also affected by choosing Easy, Normal or Hard? Or is it only RP?

It depends on the car, the type of Simeon mission, and the condition the car is in when you turn it in. The Green Car symbol mission in Free Roam returns an extremely high amount if you get the car there in mint condition. The list of cars mission that he sends in a text message can vary in reward depending on which car you pick from the list to take to him. Like the Green Car mission, the final amount also varies on the condition the car is in when you turn it in to him.
The highest I received from him was for a Green Car mission in a Free Roam lobby where no one attempted to stop me. Turned in an SUV (The FQ 2 if I recall) in perfect condition for 21k.

i've been begging for over 5 years.
Only RP, for now.
Did you exit gta online and went back to single player?
I think people can shoot you from outside.

Not sure on stores, but I think parking in a LS Customs is probably the best way to idle. It also protects your car.
That's probably what happened. I lost a lot of money.
Or climb into a roof in passive mode.
Jest Chillin

Best way to idle is an Apartment (which makes even the cheaper ones worthwhile imo).
For Stores, there's been reports of people opening the doors then running outside to shoot people standing inside. If you idle in an LS Customs, people will camp the outside to ambush you when you come out.
In an Apartment, you have two exit points so it becomes harder to camp.
Edit: Even a roof isn't safe as someone truly determined will just fly a plane into you.

I got the same thing yesterday.
Well you did shotgun a homie in the face!

Well yeah, an Apartment is best, but a lot of people don't own those. I'm saving up for one of the low $300k ones, rather than lose money by purchasing a cheaper one and only getting refunded half when I upgrade. In the meantime, LS Customs is my best bet, especially for the LS Customs that are less frequented by players.
Not to mention, if someone wants to camp outside the LS Customs I'm parked in for half an hour, he deserves to get the kill.

Are playlists broken or is it just me? Just gives me an endless loading symbol when trying to load them up.

I just want to share my experience from the other day:
I joined a free roam where a couple of people tried to kill me as soon as I spawn. I kill these guys a couple times and they put a bounty on my head.
My car was nowhere around so I stole a police car to get away. I then notice the whole lobby is chasing after me. I drive around for a while until I flip my car. I crawl out and look up and breathe a sigh of relief as I see a fellow gaf crew member pulling up. "Thank god you're here" shotgun blast to the face
lol

Forreal, seeing a GAF crewmember should be a good thing, as you know you have some back up and in regards to your situation, a getaway driver. He should get kicked out! Don't want it to get to the point that we can't even trust the crew homies

Well, as a bonus you also learned what happens in the aftermath.
I'm starting to think that the best part of multiplayer isn't even the multiplayer but all the fun new random stuff that happens in the world the more you level.
To go from races and death matches to the amount of just in lobby action and fun you can get into really makes this worth every minute spent playing it. If you haven't run into any serious bugs of course but whuddayagonnadohuh?

Man I've had a few gafstreet peeps cap me when trying to cruise around los Santos robbing stores and catching bounties. Had they been in neogang I might have set em straight.

Lol yea. I don't know his GAF name but his PSN was cod something.
Yea I was thinking the same thing at the time. Now I just think it's kinda funny still fucked up though. Maybe we should implement a three strikes rule for the crew?
Did it lower your opinion of people in general?
Or is it the constant taxation of pretty much everything you do?
Or the bugs & glitches?
Or the connection errors and session/job joining issues?
Or the focus of R* on nerfing missions to encourage the purchase of in-game dollars?
Or the character loss fiasco?
I'm having a lot of fun playing missions with friends but the griefers are horrible. We get a bit of satisfaction out of making them regret killing us but I don't really enjoy being shot in the back during moments of complete vulnerability like buyings items at Ammunation or using your phone to deposit money, etc.
Re: NGAF (PS3 GTAO crew)
I'm still in the crew but no one from GAF ever responds to my invites (the exception of WhatRobEats) so I play with another crew that backs each other up, hangs out and generally has a lot of fun.

So how many Co-op/Heist missions are there? Cause all I see on the maps are all these deathmatch, racing and last man standing missions.

Heist missions haven't been implemented yet. Unsure about the number of Co-op missions. You'll just have to request them from characters
Futo, the drift car is really customizable.
I did a mission that was sort of a heist yesterday minus an entire gang. It was a 2 player only mission given to me by Lester. One guy made his way to a helicopter which had money or diamonds while the other had to cover using sniper.
Real heists haven't been put in the game yet though.

Fuck that 3 strike shit. If somebody from Gaming Age Fam does this and I see it or somebody reports to me that they did, boot and ban.

Kinda disappointed with online so far as most of these missions are just PVP/racing missions.
