Get more creative than a high power pistol

What about stun grenade/flashbang. Is an EMP device too sci fi? What about a sensor mine. Basically the sticky explosive but it triggers if someone is near it. Hell make it an anti tank mine since tanks are super OP anyway,

Maybe get a little more ridiculous. Bring back the chainsaw. Dual weilding pistols/mico-uzi would be interesting.
 
THough, I may be in the minority, I have total of about 450 hours with SP + MP, and I still am not sick of the radio stations. So this is amazing to me, getting even more BA music.

same here i usually listen to blue ark but all the stations are good. Does anyone remember that gxt file with all the songs that got cut? there was alot too. warren g, spice 1, westside connection, it even had a dramatics song that didn't make it. I don't know if it was legit or not, but that dramatic's song was used in the lowrider documentary R* made for the San Andreas special edition.

Re: Weapons. I wish the thermal scope wasn't exclusive to single player missions.

Re: Update. Yay! A second garage! I still haven't bought a super car yet LOL*. Filled my garage(s) with dumb junk like Tailgaters and the Merryweather jeep. I keep a Bagger even though I hate it compared to the Bati.

Currently my favorite car is the Sultan (RS?). Handles nicely, decent max speed and is 4-door. Way better than Jackal and Felon IMO.

*I bought the Roosevelt though. :p

My current garage:

1) Felon GT (my first PV)
2) Sultan
3) Tailgater
4) Bagger
5) BeeJay XL
6) Bati
7) Sandking XL
8) Roosevelt
9) Fusilade
10) MW Mesa
 
The Sultan RS is a badass car. I owned one before i found a tailgater, that i recently sold. I'm thinking about finding a gen2 Oracle and maxing it out,. I've sold so many of them, and i'm just now realizing how much of a beast the car is. It has great handling and legit top speed for how big the car is. It'll be a good getaway vehicle.
 
I'm getting me a mansion!

Good to see they altered the price of GTA$.
I've got about 800k in my account, and 2 fully tuned cars I hate I plan to sell. I'm there with ya, whatever themost expensive house is, and maybe a car or three! And a bike! Love living the Los Santos High Life.

Working till late tonight, what are the new cash card prices?

I'd be so down to have 2 garages. Love mixing up my cars.

Sultan RS is my main one, but I love to roll in my Picador, Sandking, Motorcycle, and more

100K - £1.99
200K - £3.39
500K - £6.75
1.25M - £11.49

I glitched like 64 million my goodness that would have been a lot of money. 39.99 is more than I payed for the game itself wow it's expensive.

Ah - oh well. In all actuality, I don't even have time for this game between Titanfall and Dark Souls 2. Maybe if it's easy to do, I'll try.
Once it's found out it's very easy to do really no hassle at all. I've been doing jolly co-op with Screaming Meat in Dark Souls 2 so I might need some fast cash.

I've started playing this again. Paid $20 for 1million in game credits and burned through 70% of that in a day (just buying a car, weapons and whatnot).

What's the best way to make money? I'm pretty sure that I'll be bankrupt in a week or two at this rate...

Running covenant playlist on hard ad infinitum. 18k in like 4 minutes.

So what does the "exciting Story Mode DLC" mean in the latest Newswire update?

R* confirms it for this year.

I can' imagine it being as large as Lost and Damned/Gay Tony though, but maybe R* has cranked out so much new assets/content already from developing vanilla GTA V that is was just a matter of implementing it nicely into an expansion for SP.


Back when the business update was announced, they mentioned new assassination missions & flight school trials.

Trash Talk is another suggestion. If you have a Buzzard, you can easily do that mission in no time, and on hard 15k in the bank. Level 61 minimum.

EDIT: MOAR THOUGHTS

You could always try to create a crew/friend only room, and hope for an armored truck glitch out. The other day I did this with a member of the PS3 crew that was on and we both made over 1.25 mil in about 2~3 hours.

Simeon cars via text, selling cars to Los Santos Customs, and those High Priority Vehicles are your best bet outside of Armored Trucks and missions to capitalize. Get the right string of cars to sell when you join, and you can make 50k easily in the first 10 minutes of joining.

Speaking of the Sultan "RS" I really hope they add the real one from GTA4 in at some point (not likely I imagine). While the knock off 4 door version is neat it really doesn't compare the the 2 door side exit exhaust version for me, loved driving that car around LC.

And yes having new pistols would be rad, none of the current ones (I don't have the CE) do it for me and I would love running around with a pistol. As it is now I usually just use the assault rifle or combat MG.

I just play survival for a good 20k. Maybe its because im only lvl 41, but i haven't played a mission thats worth the payout yet.
Also last night saw 3 people in tanks messing with low levels who had no way of defending themselves. First time i've seen that in a while.

That's because they patched the URL system out so you can't access all content regardless of your level. And they made it so you actually have to be level 70 to use it now.

I try not to kill low levels. However if they kill me repeatedly then I will unmercifully kill them over and over again with my tank until I make them rage quit or I get bored.

I saw this too! Were you in a game with a randomrosso93? There was someone from the GAF Crew that I saw in the same game.

Guys in tanks killed me at least 7 times... I had no way to fight back.

Considering how Hollywood the game's based, some Bond-style weapons would probably fit in fine. EMP device, laser pen as a grenade type, etc.

Actually, if a more Perfect Dark-style "Bond Pack" came out, it'd be amazing if they added in a new Kill Yourself method where you blew your head off with one of the pens.

Saw an alleged leak of a heist. Looked no different than a mission. It was just go to that bank in vinewood area, kill the guards, hack 3 terminals like in some of the missions in MP. Get the cash and deliver to Lester.


Zzzzz

Hope it wasn't real or was a basic mission because I was expecting a looooot more.

There was an alleged leak back in .. like January or earlier that was identical to that. It ended up being somebody fooling with the code and faking a "heist." For one, the AI for the guards was all wrong.

Like you, though, I'm expecting a semi-scripted event like in the single player game, but coop, and some mission management.

Any cash exploits? Still salty that R* lowered the sale value of Adders so I couldn't get my money beck when I wanted to sell them
 

Flandy

Member
I've not checked recently but I'm pretty sure some still exist.

I had stocked up a bunch when all those people were giving out billion in cash so I could sell them once that got fixed. When R* took peoples money away I had like 3 million less than I did before the exploits started. I didn't need the money immediately so I decided to not sell the Adders until I wanted to buy something. That didn't work out :\

This is a little late for the people asking, but I'll post it here just because no one has put a specific answer yet.

Mini-guide for best paying jobs. Note you either need to be the right level or know someone who can pick the mission.

Lv 15 Any Survival = 20k
Recommended at least once so you can access weapons you wouldn't have otherwise. Snipers, RPGs, minigun, best pistol/shotgun/rifles, etc. Makes all subsequent missions easier. Note: Changing sessions removes all level-locked weapons.
SANDY SURVIVAL = less ammo expense and easier to pick up more weapons

Lv 36 Coveted = 15k Normal 18k Hard
~3-6 Minutes. Enemies always in the same position so you can improve your time easily. Great sniping practice too.

Lv 75 Rooftop Rumble = 18725 Hard
~3-6 Minutes. Fun because of all the ways you can complete this mission. Harder if you aren't good at outrunning the FIB.

There are missions like Lv65 Method in the Madness that pay more but they take much more time, ammo, and can be frustrating sometimes. They can be fun with veteran players though.

Some missions like Lv27 Base Invaders pay close to 40k for beating them on Hard for the first time. You need people who know what they're doing though.

So I read from other forums that v1.12 has appeared, but cannot find an official release.

Do I post a new thread?

Edit: It apparently does not include "The High Life" update.

One new feature lets you call Lester and cops will ignore everything you do for a few minutes.

It hasn´t been removed, it´s a bug. Good news; they are aware of this problem, and they are working on a fix.

What are the chance that we'll actually get a PS4 version of this game? Any credible sources spreading rumors? I REALLY want to cancel my Xbox Live account.

GTAV, runs like a game that was made to run smoothly on stronger hardware. I'm guessing R* north wants to handle the PC/P4/X1 version themselves. If another R* team was working on it, i think we all would know about it by now. I'm guessing after all the DLC is out and GTAO beta is finished.

The Roosterteeth "Heists" have gotten my interest back this game. Im not sure if anyone still plays this but if you do, and are interested in partnering with someone, let me know.

It's still kinda frustrating that we can't just blow people up without any reprecussions and having to get my car "back" from an impound or insurance is just plain silly. Same with getting wanted levels for stealing cars. I also noticed the cars are now cheaper? Is that my imagination?
