I swear the garage in this game is loving with me. I see the order cars get placed in, clear a spot for an almost-million dollar car, then buy it and it winds up in a completely different space two spots down. Now I have to get rid of it. :(

People get pissed at this stuff but it's funny on occasion. I'd rather someone pull a prank like that than pit every other car throughout the whole race.

I like to do this occasionally to break up the monotony of race grinding but I'll warn the other goons I'm racing against about what's coming.

I fill the entire garage full of Ballers, then sell (or blow up) the one in the spot I want to use. I have never had this fail yet. Don't give it multiple options.

ANYTHING with pubbies devolves to exactly that. It's like they're immune to fun. Seriously, free-roam with pubbies is probably the least enjoyable thing you can do in GTAO, but the only thing that is even close to reliably working.

After seeing a friend of mine with 60 million in the bank I'm so tempted to try out the car glitch. Rockstars 500k doesn't start to cover the 2 million in cars/property I lost when my character got chewed up, but I'm also extremely fortunate enough to be sitting on an absurdly high level character now with a few million in the bank thanks to rooftop rumble before they patched.

I can only imagine! I've only been to LA once and I get little blips of odd familiarity. I lived in Phoenix for a few years though, and parts of the Southeast side reminds me a lot of different areas of Mesa and Tempe and I get the weirdest Deja Vu. Going up Mt. Chiliad reminds me hard of going up Four Peaks. I'm sure if you live in LA it's insanely surreal.

The most hilarious thing about it to me is that the reason it's so quick and easy to do is because of Rockstar's desire to sell in-game cash, since you have to go into/back out of the PSN/Xbox store to do the glitch.

An adder and enough to mod it are enough for me.

At the same time, I think I'll wait. I'll slow down once I hit level 75-ish. I notice I haven't seen one mission higher then that yet.

Hopefully they add heists and ordinary missions, and just more of every type of mission.

I wrote a bunch of stuff about the car sale glitch and decided to delete it all just to say this:

GTA5:O is about 100x more fun when you don't worry about money anymore. If there was a guarantee that you'd get away with it, I'd suggest everyone use the car sale glitch. I think the fun I've gotten out of it is worth any character wipe or dunce cap I'll ever receive. The fact I no longer need to grind boring missions and turn this game into a job just highlights how broken the current system is anyway. I'll be double-dipping for the PC version, so it's not like my console character's gonna matter after that.

Yesterday was honestly the first time in forever that I laughed playing Online. It kinda struck me because of how often I find myself just screaming at the drat screen. I think it had to do with something happening to someone I wanted to hurt in the game. That tends to be a thing. I think it was sticky bomb related because I swear HALF the entertainment I've achieved in this game is sticky bomb related

I think the biggest problem for me is the tendency to keep up with the joneses, you get killed by a guy in a chopper and wish you had a chopper, nevermind the fact that I killed the guy just as easily as vice versa. You come at someone with an RPG and you miss, they're gonna put you down with a pistol easy. I'm still loathe to have a "just have fun" attitude as raging at people seems to be the main driving force right now, I should probably join a goon crew and think outside the box

For some reason when people hit replay in a lobby there's no menu option to back out of it. It seems like the only way to quit is to either wait until everyone else has voted so you can see if you're replaying, or to bring up the guide and join a friend or recent player in another session.

On paintjobs, you can use separate crew colours for a vehicle and they will both apply at the same time (as long as you don't go into the menu option for the paint region you first changed). At least, assuming that the game doesn't process paintjobs to update their colours to current crew settings. Combined with the ability to manually edit the colour you want (via Inspect Element in your browser), and to change the paint type for crew colours per region, you can probably come up with some nice combinations.

edit: worked once for me, but it seems the game does check when you apply a second paint area what your current crew colour is set to, and update the first.

The Sheriff SUV paintjob lets you matte out the entire thing to black, the pearlescent colour option actually seems to be 'Secondary Colour' which changes the tint of some areas. You can also set your crew colour on top.

They might get the message that people don't want to bleed money and grind as a means to to pay for it, and deal with those issues first. They might remember they just made a huge pay day and they probably don't need to sell in game anything, well, ever.

If they plan to introduce features like casinos and betting that require an economy to function, they will absolutely reset exploiting accounts.

When it comes to glitches like this I tend not to worry too much. If people were downloading programs to enable exploits or something like that (that probably sounds dumb I don't even know how that would work) then I could see R* wiping their characters. However, if it's a glitch that merely takes advantage of a flaw that R* left in the game then they have nobody to blame but themselves. The way I see it, the worst that might happen is them wiping the money from people that do this, but I don't even know how they would manage that.

They could probably make a pretty steady income from selling content, stupid cosmetic poo poo, character slots, and other stuff that you can't buy with ingame currency period so long as the game itself is fun enough for people to want more of it.
