When you get your hair done, there's a slider at the bottom where you can change the color up on your hair, eyes, eyebrows and facial hair. It makes flipping through the hair so much more streamlined.

Thanks, I'll have to check that out. I completely missed the color palette first time around with the hair.

The few missions I've been able to launch online so far have amounted to "save some fuckboy who won't follow you" or "gather some equipment that doesn't exist". What the gently caress? All this poo poo worked somewhat well on the old gen consoles and now basic poo poo like the equipment not spawning after trying to get the job to launch for 15 minutes isn't acceptable in my opinion.

Just got a new one "steal the locked helicopter".

Welp, I accidentally made my transferred character look like a hideous box so I had to start a whole new character who is not an uggo. My only regret is that I can't get a pink car yet :( I liked pissing people off with my giant pink Manana convertible.

If you're in LLJK our crew color is pink. I dunno how much it costs though. 25k?

I guess I will be the jerk who says it: I am disappointed that Passive Mode has been improved. When you're passive, you're ghosted to everyone around you, like in non-contact races. It now works in cars, too. :argh:

This is going to cut down on a lot of my free roam fun. Thinking of creative ways to get people in passive was one of my favorite things to do.

I'd also LOVE to rank up my new character but Rockstar has other thoughts about that. I cannot load into a job - I keep getting kicked.

I was playing on PS4 and got killed while in passive mode. Only difference was that they had to pay my hospital bill.

You sure you were in passive? I saw it multiple times. Some lower level guy killed me for my bounty, him and his buddy went into passive immediately after he killed me. Both climbed into their cars, and they were still in passive. I tried running him over, I went right through him.

They've been paying hospital bills for awhile now - couple updates back.

Yeah, it told me that he had to pay it because I was in passive mode and it wouldn't let me access the weapon wheel because i was in passive mode.

WOULD YOU ACCOMPANY ME ON A BRISK WALK? I WOULD LIKE TO SPEAK WITH YOU!!


geeves posted:

I've been working on this the past day or two. Finally had some time to get one written up. Plus I needed to use the new character creator first.

I do have a couple of questions:

1) Missions payout and RP based on time. A mission or two that's good for this.
2) Same for races? I've found that a good threshold for more payout and RP is about 4 minutes. It's not a huge bump, but if you race solo just to mess around like I do it helps.
3) Can no longer change your hair color at the salon?


Cool. I don't have answers to your questions but I'm definitely looking forward to a new OP. I joined up a bit yesterday and was confused as gently caress, and the races were terrible, with me just getting rammed down an alleyway and held there buy a car or two so that I had to keep respawning and then I'd just get rammed somewhere else. I don't mind getting rammed occasionally on accident or even on purpose maybe, but this was pretty deliberate and they'd just pin me somewhere and not even try to race. It was pretty stupid. Eventually found a goon on my friends list and joined him and had fun, so mainly I just need to play with Goons I guess. I had forgotten how bad pubbies were, and I guess I had hoped I'd left most of that nonsense on 360 when I switched to PS4. I'm not sure what I was expecting, in retrospect.

I haven't tried doing it on PS4 (from what I remember the method was patched out in the last gen version? I'm not sure) but the one matte/pearlescent car I had on PS3 kept its paint job when I transferred it.

Forgot how fun it was ruining people's day. Got into an attack chopper with GlitterBob. Rocketed some dudes. He gets shot, I get shot. I spawn. I snipe one guy from 2 blocks away as he tries to take off in said chopper. As I'm 1 block away, another guy is going for it. I snipe him.

I barely get away with a smoking chopper.

Good times.

Shotguns right into the engine area, ideally through the grill. Also, shotguns towards the rear driver side tire area, so you can catch the gas tank.

Yes. When I just connected to a lobby it literally kicked everyone else out.

Though this was the first lobby that wasn't LLJK almost exclusively.

Also a new thread is up. So we can let this one die.

yeah, happened to me 3 times in a row. I finely got in a lobby with 2 other LLJK guys for twenty minutes and then i got dropped and an error message. I tried to get back in but i got dropped into a solo lobby two more times.

Oh hey that was you! I was having pretty bad connection issues and somehow ended up alone in another session right after respawning. Still got to witness the aftermath, someone's character was sitting in the nearly destroyed Buzzard as an NPC in my session.

I'm still waiting for Rockstar to get their poo poo together and pay me my missing preorder bonus cash. In the meantime I'm definitely down for some more pubbie hunting, races and/or missions on PS4 this weekend if anyone else feels like it.

I've been really enjoying the next-gen version.

Character customisation is so much nicer, and you can finally have interesting hair colours! That said, when you import your character they start pretty caveman-esque.

Is everyone here on PS4 now?

Also, why are the gloves and boots from the team update only available with the team clothing? That's ridiculous. There's barely any practical footwear for women otherwise.

Yo geeves, I don't really see a reason for two GTA online threads. I think most people playing on ps3 now will be switching to ps4 or pc at some point in the future, and while it's sad to lose all of the history in this thread, your new op is good.

I will be playing on ps3 for a bit longer, and so are a lot of people in this thread. In the spirit of keeping the community together across platforms and generations, can you change the op to read something like, 'this thread is heavily current generation, however ps3 and future PC players are welcome.'?

Oh hell no.

You know this thread only got 3-5 posts per day before the current gen version came out.

Now we'll get about 1 post / day pertaining to last-gen, and I really don't want to read through 35 "how do I do X on PS4 I haven't played since 2010" posts before I get to it.
