New! Sept. 2016Zidmidge posted:"I also started a Discord for GTA goons. I'm new to discord but it seems that the added chat component also kind of acts like forums? Seems like it might be a good way to keep this, as dryer lint put it, lame gay gaming community together. It's not like we play GTA for its thrilling design and tight balance. We obviously enjoy kooky game types so this should facilitate finding and organizing around those in various games.

Mod at your own risk. There are some unsubstantiated claims that players have been banned for some things such as a Field of View mod (as of April 30). There are, however, a growing number of players in Online who are using Trainer / Scripthook to be assholes. Heists are here as well as the PC. Here's a thing to help plan heists: geeves posted:So I created a small tool to match people up for heists since nobody on PC knows who everyone is at the moment. I couldn't figure out how best to do this with a google form, so I made it myself. LLJK Player Created Jobs: Find custom made races, deathmatches, etc. created by goons and add them to your game. They then show up in your "Bookmarked Jobs". PS4 Jobs | Xbox One Jobs | LLJK PC Jobs Current Gen and PC Player Info PS4 Players | PS4 Signup || Xbone Players | Xbone Signup || PC Signup | PC Players Previous Gen - warning these are very out of date and do not account for those who migrated consoles. Many who were on 360 moved to PS4 and some on PS3 changed their names because reasons. 360 List | 360 Form || PS3 List | PS3 Signup Be Proactive and add a few goons as friends from the above lists to help get started[/b] - feel free to start with me (PS4 - DeadFor8Minutes / PC - WynterSummers). I suggest adding in your forums name and identify yourself as a goon. On Xbox and PS4, if you then see them join a party, join that party and at least introduce yourself / ask what's going on, there are a few of us who jump parties to see what the others are up to or just to chat a bit. Join Lasagna (most trustworthy goon), Jay - his true believer, literallygary - his herald (and best goon pilot), me and others to terrorize pubbies with the Insurgent (or on foot). On PC, join us in Mumble (details above). Don't have a mic or don't really talk that much? No problem! There's a few of us that just like to listen in as well. I recommend friending and getting to know other goons because not all invites to jobs and heists display that the invite is from a crew member - see image below - and most of the time not even from the correct player. Being in crew and / or party chat helps with the current Rockstar created confusion.  Transferring Your Online Character How to transfer your character from previous generation to current generation. For 360 to PS4, it was a simple as linking my PS4 account with Social Club and going to Online-> Character Transfer in the pause menu to start the process. Transferring your character takes some time. So jump back into single player and play a few missions and it should be done by then. If you for some reason have Shark Cards, apply them and verify the cash shows up before transferring. You cannot use a 360 card for PS4, etc. If you haven't logged into GTA Online since 2013, you may want to log in to the previous gen just in case and get your character "update to date". But now that the first couple of patches have already been released, character transfer should be smoother with no loss of cars, money, weapons and real estate. There are reports of characters being transferred but losing possessions of one type or another and they are still being reported by randoms who have lost their vehicles during the transfer. So check your garages, check your Pegasus list. The Cargobob was still in my Pegasus list thankfully. If you're missing stuff, use R*'s support. Creating / Editing your Character's Appearance For the initial online character creation, there was this convoluted system that was difficult for most people to figure out. The new version is much better, simplifying your heritage and being able to customize specific facial features one at a time. You can even switch the gender of your character. You can change your brow shape, chin shape, lips, nose, cheek bones, eye shape, you get the idea. You can also pick eye and hair color. You can even be freckled, have acne scarring, or just flat out acne like most of the squeakers you hear on the general chat. Or you can be a slack jawed geriatric with horrible pustule covered weathered-skin. You can also change the opacity of some of your facial features to add subtlety such as eyebrows, freckles and blush. If you’re importing your character, be sure to remove your hat, mask and glasses if you were previously wearing them. Once you’ve finalized your character your mugshot will be taken (should appear in your gallery) and you’re all set to jump in once again to raid Los Santos.  Crews  The Official Goon crew is What does LLJK get up to? This about sums it up: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=46UdL_OyTpM I was in LLJK, but now I'm not: It's most likely nothing personal at all, so please keep that in mind! That said, if you don't have LLJK as your primary crew you run this risk. LLJK is at capacity right now at Rockstar's arbitrary 1000 member limit and we have a waiting list or the WEZL crew for run off members currently. Before PC was released we were sitting at around ~450 members for consoles and some, even then hadn't been active in months. We've had a huge influx of PC players. It would be a lot better if we could figure out who exactly was simply an inactive player, but Rockstar does not give us that information. You can also be kicked - more likely flat out banned from the crew - if you're an rear end in a top hat to other crew members. Collecting a bounty set on another member is okay. Humorous explosions and scenarios are okay. If you're in auto-aim, accidental shootings can happen because crew members aren't recognized as friendlies. Shooting on sight and griefing are not okay. More info in the goon crew thread about the wait list and its status. Joining an Online Session  The current gen consoles now support 30 player sessions. Don't worry, everyone will leave after a few minutes leaving you all alone. Joining Crew Members Some players continue to report issues with matchmaking. They may exist, but I haven’t had problems with joining online sessions with friends or crew members unless that session is full. There now may be limits for the number of crew members in one public session - what that number is I don’t know. It should be noted the source for this was a reddit thread and considering that the OP of that thread never responded with a number - who knows, but it’s something for which to be on the lookout. Snapmatic Since its inception, the camera on your phone has improved in some ways. You can filter and border your photos if you can’t make them interesting enough like you do with Instagram. You can also control the depth of field slightly when in self-portrait mode and now you can tilt and move your head so you don’t always have the same pose with each photo. Lowlight self-portraits seem a bit better as well. Misc and Support If you are having an issue with anything, Rockstar’s support forums are where you want to go. Lose something? Vehicles, Money, etc.? Their support team is pretty good, all things considered. They’ve been able to restore your Level when it suddenly changes to zero, and while they haven’t been able to restore a full garage they will poorly compensate you for your vehicles. How do I make money? Sell cars, get cash. Unfortunately you can only sell a car every 48 minutes or 1 in-game Day. Simeon also has a list of cars that he’ll text you that he wants. These often include an Ubermacht Sentinel, Obey Tailgater, etc. There’s also Simeon’s High Priority Vehicle or HPV. This shows up as a green car on the map. If you manage to get HPV, other players may come after you so they too can get HPV from you. The easiest way to work the cars Simeon wants or HPV is to go into passive mode then avoid the cops and drive to a mod shop, paint it the cheapest black and deliver it to the docks. If you jump sessions are you not held to the 48 minute cool down if you get another HPV. Other cars you can sell every 48 minutes at LSC - prices may vary. Sapient Afro posted:I should point out that the sentinel convertible sells for 9.5k, and there are also gang variants of the Peyote, ragtop Tornado and Buccaneer which sell for 12,940 , 12,575 and 9,750 respectively
No seriously, how do I make money? Races Races have been nerfed over time, but if you can get into a full lobby and avoid the asshats who crash in turn one, and if it’s a race that takes over 4 minutes to complete, you can get decent (but not a huge) amount of cash. When hosting races you can control some aspects of the race, such as traffic, GTA-style, slipstream, catchup and lock them into a view such as the new first person view. Missions Missions unlock as you level up. You can be invited to a mission as a lower level player by someone hosting the mission. Some missions, like Rooftop Rumble for example, unlock at level 75. The amount of time to finish a mission can impact the payout and RP of completing it successfully. You can also get more RP and money (x1.5) by completing the mission on hard. The first time you successfully complete a mission you will receive its full payout. After that, it’s half the payout price. For example Rooftop Rumble, the first payout is $37,500. Subsequent payouts are $17,250. Why the weird amounts? Well, the initial payout for RR was $75,000. R* couldn’t sell Shark Cards (TM) with players making that much money from missions so they halved nearly everything for missions. Here's a spreadsheet with money and RP values vs. time. Note this may not be 100% accurate and could be Rockstared at any time. Survivals Survivals can be fun, but expensive as you might use a good bit of ammunition that you buy and then end up spending all of your earned cash to re-purchase what you used. So try to pick up as much ammo as you can between waves. Payout is based on the number of waves you survive with a maximum of $30,000. If you're a lower level player you can quickly up your aiming / weapon stat as all you do is shoot meth heads, cops, mercs. Also Survivals can take a good chunk of time. Prepare for a 25+ minute investment. Other Activities There are also a myriad of other activities which you can earn money. From Deathmatches to Last Team / Man Standing, Parachuting to Air Racing, Arm Wrestling and Darts. Tennis and Golf can also help improve your strength stat, as can taking a golf club to a car. Crew Challeges (limited) Every so often a crew challenge will show up as 250k. Do at your own risk. You can make 250k more easily, but also I've beaten the challenge to just have my 250k bet disappear and be left 250k down. Crate Drops These are mythical boxes that supposedly drop from the sky with milk and honey and rare t-shirts. They do exist, unlike Heists. Glitches / Exploits These popped up pretty often in the previous generation and would usually last anywhere from a day to a few days depending on how quickly R* could issue a hot fix. Most involved confusing the console and server as to what car you actually had and using a dead hooker to duplicate an expensive one (like an Adder) and repeatedly sell it, quickly racking up several million dollars with just an hours work. R* hasn’t punished those who exploited the game in this way (they primarily went after the DNS glitchers that were purposely altering the game) but it’s not to say they might not go after people in the future. Also be careful if you do attempt these, if you do them wrong it is possible that you will sell your vehicle only for it to be gone for good. What are these Shark Cards you mentioned? Because I don’t feel like doing any of that Good! Because you can waste real money on in game cash. With GTA’s obscenely inflated economy, it’s easy to go through $200k just to buy all the latest fashions for your character (outfits can go for $40 to $50k). And instead of offering micro transactions to buy a car pack or single car (see Forza), R* offers in game money. This is their endgame as how they support online. Seriously, it was even in their Q4 share holders call last year. Megalodon Shark - $8,000,000 - $99.99 USD / £64.99 GBP Whale Shark - $3,500,000 - $49.99 USD / £39.99 GBP Great White Shark - $1,250,000 - $19.99 USD / £13.49 GBP (that’s paying $20 for a loving Adder) Bull Shark - $500,000 - $9.99 USD / £6.75 GBP Tiger Shark - $200,000 - $4.99 USD / £3.39 GBP Red Shark - $100,000 - $2.99 USD / £1.99 GBP But what about these Heists I keep hearing about? " https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDd3pTE8UsQ How do I waste money? Easily. Free Roam. You are able to call up services from Lester (get cops off your tail; set a bounty; go off radar or have cops turn a blind eye which is helpful to enter the military base and grab a jet), Lamar (call a mugger) and others to annoy or troll other people just because you can. You can also play dress up and buy all the clothes and outfits in the store. Apparently everything is priced like Prada. You can also destroy other players’ vehicles at the risk of being a “bad sport” and pay their insurance. Nobody quite knows why there is the double whammy of bad sport and having to pay insurance, but it’s there. That’s not even how insurance works. But R* needs to sell Shark Cards. Because reasons, going off radar alerts other players in the session that you are off radar. It even reminds other players that there are off radar players about 30 seconds into the 60 second limit. Bounties You can no longer wait out the bounty in your apartment - it's been this way for a while. You need to survive in free roam for 48 minutes to collect the money for yourself. Ways to avoid other players are the submarine in the ocean, in the subway or sewer tunnels or just go to a solo or invite session (but what’s the fun in that?). Bounties appear as a red dot with an X through them. If you look at them on the pause menu map, they have a skull as well. Mental State Don’t confuse bounties with Mental State. The more you kill other players, the more your dot will turn red. If you kill these red dots, you do not get cash for it, but you do get a paltry RP bump for it. Passive Mode Passive mode has been updated in current gen and PC. You are now a ghost. Every so often though you can come out of a mission or heist in passive mode but killable by other players. You can still leave boobytrapped ignition bombs in cars for pubbies to find. This will work, but you will be kicked out of passive. Content Creator One of the better things that Rockstar has implemented. You can create your own races, deathmatches, capture and last team standing battles to share with your crew and with the world in general. Nearly the entire map is available. Not sure why Los Santos Airport is off limits. There have been very creative and very exploitative content created, such as sky-based death matches and others in which you find yourself inside an inescapable area with one tank or weapon. LLJK PS4 Jobs | LLJK Xbox One Jobs | LLJK PC Jobs Other Updates Over the last year R* has made other updates / improvements to Free Roam. You can now easily tell who is in a Jet or Helicopter or other special vehicle instead of having to discern what a player is in just by how their white dot moves. They give you elevation indicators in the form of an arrow to look out for rooftop snipers. You can also see the distance from you in meters of another player on the pause map. There have also been quite a few updates that have brought new vehicles, weapons and clothes to GTA Online such as the Beach Bum Update, I Am Not A Hipster Update; the limited Valentine’s Update; The Business Update; The ‘Merica Update and more. Aside from weapons, etc. there have been constant tweaks to the in game physics and vehicle handling and weapons capability (RIP Tank Sniping) and passive mode much to the chagrin of many online players. Please PM me with any corrections or additions to keep this OP up to date. geeves fucked around with this message at 20:40 on Sep 19, 2016 |

Vehicles Here's a list of all the vehicles in GTA5 And here's a list of vehicle mods for the cars in GTA. http://tinyurl.com/GTA-Online-Car-Mods Here's a list of every vehicle and their base stats. What kind of Vehicles Should I Buy? Well, you'll get different answers from different people (see below). Most cars except for the high priced cars can be found around Los Santos or Blaine County, modded and stored in your garage. High end cars, such as the Rapid GT, cannot enter LSC unless you've purchased it online. A good all around car is the Karin Sultan. Fully modded the car is excellent and fast and AWD. It can hold 4 people and can easily bring death to other players. The Sultan is also cheap to replace when it's eventually destroyed. If you like to race, it's not a bad idea to invest when you can in a car from each class and mod it fully. But if you can't drive for poo poo, you're not going to win. In the Super Class the Zentorno and Adder may have the top speed, but the Entity is fast, has AWD and corners well. The Cheetah and Turismo are good cars as well. Any of these cars can beat the others in the hands of a solid driver. Psion posted:I think this is pretty close to done. Final thoughts, cars to add to the notable list, "What's the best car for racing?" Well, here's what the thread thinks. Best and second best options.
Super races are the most common, followed by sports. Offroad, Muscle, Sports Classics and Motorcycles happen occasionally. Coupes, Compacts, and Sedans are rare. SUVs are the rarest by a factor of about a billion. Prioritize your purchasing. Other Notable Cars - you might want some of these if you aren't racing 24/7.

Network Issues GTA Online is full of them as many in this thread can attest. From session load times to getting "stuck in the clouds" after a mission, while most of the issues are likely on Rockstar's end (this is R*'s repetitive response to all messages about network connections), and perhaps improved a little with patch 1.0.4, it may be worth it to try out other DNS providers to see if that improves the network reliability and the game. I've used Google DNS for reliability with my Mac when Comcast / ATT fucks up. Some people on Rockstar's community / support forums are reporting success by changing their DNS settings to Google's. Note: the following changes may not work for the better and Google DNS may in fact degrade your speed performance. If Google DNS does this you can find alternative DNS servers with Namebench (https://code.google.com/p/namebench/). Namebench works on both Mac and Windows and takes about 10 minutes to run completely and will give a report in your browser with alternatives as well as how much they may improve or degrade the speed of your connection.  On PS4 (I'll add Xbox shortly) you can change these by going to: Settings -> Network -> Setup Internet Connection -> Wifi / LAN -> Custom IP Address - Auto DHCP - Do not specify DNS Settings - Manual Google's DNS IP Addresses are 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 If you select another DNS server via Namebench, they recommend 3 at the top of the results (see screenshot). geeves fucked around with this message at 00:33 on Apr 25, 2015 |

CousinKevin posted:So wait, is this microtransaction stuff or something? If so, why is the $1,250,000 GTA Fun Bux option priced at $20? I was in EB Games today and they were selling $1,000,000 GTA Fun Bux codes for $2. It's R*'s idea of what a microtransaction is. If you can get $1,000,000 for $2, that's not bad. I don't play many games, but Forza is game with solid microtransactions and you can't even kill people in that.

Icedude posted:You should probably mention in the OP that if you haven't played since 2013 and want to transfer your character to current gen, you should probably load up online in last gen once and make sure it saves your character just to be sure. Thanks for the reminder, I added that. Supposedly the 1.0.2 patch took care of the old last gen characters. Mice Everywhere posted:Sultans are still totally rad both on-road and off, right?! Sultans are totally rad, regardless. Even with low-profile tires off road. But you can try putting off road tires on it to see if it makes any difference. Policenaut posted:It's gonna be a rough time until people manage to figure out how all the cars changed for the new version. The Bifta used to be such an awesome off-road vehicle but even fully modded I'm getting outpaced by loving Sanchezes now. You would think a dirt bike could out perform a full sized vehicle off road. I've also found that the handling on my Akuma is much better and doesn't feel as loose as it did on the 360. Edit: Could be related to the following. Turbo actually slows down your car. If you don't want to watch, the test track a completely stock Massacro runs the track in 42.277 seconds, the Turbo only Massacro runs it in 43.411 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KVbWApPV-EU geeves fucked around with this message at 22:57 on Nov 20, 2014 |

The capture ones were the easiest though. The sound it made was like a jackhammer.

The problem is that R* haven't relatively scaled back all the top speeds so you get silly poo poo like sports cars outpacing supercars.

I don't think the chopper icon displays either with the bounty. Speaking of the chopper icon, I don't think the Crew color shows through either - I nearly shot a crewmate down while I was sniping on top of a building as he was approaching in a Buzzard. On topic of bounties, sometimes you have to sacrifice the body when taking a bounty from a pubbie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=esK3z4sf29E And here's Wee Bairns and me destroying an Adder with style.

A c E posted:It's not a magnet, it's a hook. You could glitch buy them at one point but not anymore. Cargobobs start spawning at level 22 last I remember and they spawn frequently at the airport and hospital as well in the city well as at Sandy Shores airfield. a cop posted:God dammit. All I want to do is pick people's cars up with the magnet helicopter. You still can't buy those, right? So much for the "sandbox" The magnet chopper isn't online. That would be against Rockstar's ethos.

Wee Bairns posted:Too bad the second car, the yellow one (I forget what model it was) despawned before we had a chance to repeat the performance. I stole some low-level's Cheetah after your 293840 disconnect and was able to repeat. I'll have to check if I saved that video or not.

blackguy32 posted:What is the best way of earning RP currently? If you see me on, I'm usually up for running missions, etc. Found this spreadsheet by someone with too much time on their hands. Values may vary since R* seems to tweak them with every major update, but it should give you a good idea of the RP and payout. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1S7biZw_EehikIbBKx1sgGMgHa1onOPLwegkn8LNuDJ8/edit#gid=201305197

I thought that was when two row trucks pulled at opposite ends of the car. But knowing R* stranger things cause the entire session to hard lock. Best on was the flying Vinewood Tours busen1125 posted:Often I found that I was going too fast on jumps and missing the perfect spot by overshooting it. A fully upgraded super is going to be too fast at top speed for a lot of them. Also I found that it didn't always require 4 wheels but it is important to hit at least 1 front and 1 back wheel and get the other 2 down very quickly after. The Sprunk stunt jump by the rooftop rumble garage I get the failed message before I even leave the ramp. geeves fucked around with this message at 14:57 on Dec 1, 2014 |

im pooping! posted:So did they fix the whole thing where turbo makes the car slower, or are you playing on last gen? No, I don't think they have. There have been no release notes outside of "Fixed Online Issues" for 1.0.2/3/4. And I haven't seen anything in regards to viewing the patches that would show possible updates, like they did for snow and christmas clothing last year or new vehicle and weapon models. I'm trying to keep the OP / 2nd Post updated as much as possible with regards to R* updates. Psion posted:We should really put together something for the OP, because this is a perennial question. I like this idea. I'd like to put best Goon created Jobs and more car info in the 2nd post.

Hugh Malone posted:lol Yep, it's pretty simple. You can edit by 1 second, 5 seconds, 20 seconds+ intervals. Hugh Malone posted:Also want to say any race run with 'catch up' on is scrub tier. I try to remember to turn that and catch up off for races I host. Unless it's a GTA race and you want maximum carnage (see Horse Factory) because slipstream is too overpowered. Slipstream would be good if you actually could draft with another player and actually pull away from the pack, but all it does is encourage rear-ending and pitting. geeves fucked around with this message at 19:32 on Dec 1, 2014 |

Feenix posted:Is there a way I can host my own race without others? (you know, select the track, etc?) Bobtista posted:Yeah in the pause menu under the online tab iirc, you can choose the job and start your own lobby then just start without inviting anyone else. And if you want to run goon-made races, you can book mark from the social club site http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/crew/leet_like_jeff_k/games/gtav/ps4/jobs I think you'll have to restart Online (maybe the game) for them to show up in your Bookmarked list.

Policenaut posted:Bati and Akuma is like the age-old Adder and Entity debate. If I remember right, Bati has a better top speed but the Akuma has better acceleration. Either one works but they have their clear advantages against each other. I love the Akuma. The Carbon RS is basically an Akuma you can't paint (may be a bit more useful for stunting). Has anyone used the newer bikes like the Thrust? Or is it just an overpriced disappointment?

Bobtista posted:Custom plates have to be unique so I guess that's why. Once you set it it's locked to you and nobody else can have the same plate. This is a good or bad thing depending on how much you care about being *~**~*unique*~**~* They can still check uniqueness if you were able to setup the plate on Social Club or in game. In SP, Franklin is the only one I've seen with custom plates (FC1988 for his Buffalo, FC88 for the Western Bagger) geeves fucked around with this message at 16:04 on Dec 2, 2014 |

Psion posted:nobody's contradicted anything on the latest version so I think you're good to go. See this post. Done. Croccers posted:On the next-gens can you still just buy the DLC pack assault rifles or are they rank locked to a degree? Yes. I mentioned that the Special Carbine (and bullpup) and (I'm pretty certain) the Marksman Rifle can be bought immediately. I need to getmy 2nd character (level 7) transferred to double check all of this. But I know the special carbine is definitely available and I bought the sweeper with my alt since I created it back in February. Shotgun (non-assault) only deathmatches, last team standing, etc. can be very fun since it's more of close proximity thing and you can't pick someone off from too far away. And with the Assault Shotgun you don't even have to show yourself around the corner, you can free-aim it without exposing your whole body.

Yes, please. titties posted:I know this is from a couple pages back but I haven't had a computer for the last few days. Just wanted to add that the Ruiner is also competitive in the muscle car class and will easily overtake a Blade on the straights. Blade doesn't have the best straight line speed in the class, but it's maneuverable in the turns esp. in tight corners and hairpins.

There was an hour or so that rockstar would not save our game and I only think we got kicked once or twice tonight. The servers aside from that seemed to behave.
