They should make a new addon that includes at least like one "Big Garage" or something that lets you store a small number of big vehicles. Like trucks or busses. Also an armored death bus would be the best thing ever.

Why can't we have hangars in online? It can't be a balance issue because anyone with millions can just rent a ton of planes and helicopters and tanks anyway. Letting us own one and paint it pink won't destroy the game.

Honestly because there's like two total in GTA V: the Sandy Shores hangar is available for Trevor, and Michael and Franklin can each buy space in the hangar at LSIA (it's the one right by the eastern entry to the tarmac). And of those, the LSIA one normally doesn't have a way to get back out without busting through the fence over on the western side of the airport.

Is it 'normal' that my stats in the "recently joined player" tab when joining a job are completely off? I'm slightly worried something got hosed, because the second time I logged into online, my first vehicle also had a different color then when I left it.

So I was just driving around in the desert and notice shots coming at me from a ways away, so i head towards it and he starts shooting me more and then just keeps shooting and shooting and shooting, and then he starts shooting rockets at me, and throwing explosives, and just being a general shitlord who has no loving clue what is going on and I am just driving around in circles laughing my rear end off at him wasting ammo on a guy who is clearly in passive mode Then he says this and I laughed even harder Then my game crashed with no error other than the exe stopped responding or whatever. God damnit. If it isn't d3d_init failed (Which I recently figured out how to avoid, and have successfully played single-player for extensive periods of time) then it is just normal crashes? I literally just started up the game. Also how do people who shoot this much at people still have a white dot? Aren't they supposed to be red/pink if they are shooting people who haven't done poo poo? Unless he just fails so hard that he hasn't killed anyone with all those explosives

Unless he just fails so hard that he hasn't killed anyone with all those explosives You have to kill near on 20/30 people to get fully red/pink. I love how good the Insurgent is at taking fire, I dropped into another freeroam with some random goon to be shot 5/6 times with the rocket launcher as I honked my horn. I shrugged it off and ran him over.

So does anyone have else have a problem where sometimes you'll click to start a job or continue after a job and it'll just hang there forever and never progress beyond that screen? Is there anything you an do short of ALT+F4ing out of the game?

Oh I thought it was like 5 Idk i've only killed 1 guy in freeroam and that was cuz he was shooting me when I wasn't passive. I haven't done free-roam much obviously. Mostly just racing so far. How do you get your mental state to go down if you have it go up? Just don't kill dudes?

If they attack me, it's game time though. Also i just found out you can access the RSC stuff quickly by holding the back button, and then hitting the right shoulder button.

My favorite type of randoms, are the ones who just unlock grenades and other explosives. So they constantly destroy eachother, themselves and the mission objectives then wonder why they keep failing.

I thought the issue was that these russian hackers or whoever had gotten a database with the passwords inside? There was someone posting about a pastebin full of compromised accounts earlier and that made it seem like the case. If that's true then password strength wouldn't really matter.

So is there any way to get the lost van in your garage? I like it a lot and I know the heist updated added one like it, but it's not the same. I kind of wish someone would compile a list of unobtainable/rare/secret vehicles in GTAOnline.

Yeah those solutions didnt work for me either I tried everything before I eventually just decided to try and turn my settings down from what I SHOULD be able to run the game at, to what makes it so the game doesn't crash after 2 hours. For me these work: DX10.1 (I think this might be the main thing that is causing crashes for some reason? I suggested changing DX lvl to someone else and he said he still crashed on 10.1 when he was on 11 before, but when he changed it to DX10 then it ran fine) Textures very high everything else high. I've played singleplayer for 6 or so hours before I quit on my own. Before I could only play for 30 min - 2 hours.

I don't think i'm ever going to do that as a prisoner again. If the guards would either drop a scoped weapon for me or aim for the head themselves it would be easy, but trying to snipe people with a pistol or smg from such a far distance that the resolution of the game is inhibiting your ability to aim while the pubbie guard unloads clip into their ankles is pure torture.

If you don't mind spending a bit of money, go to ammunation on your way to the prison, buy the free special carbine and a bit of ammo as well as armor. It goes away if you're killed so don't buy all. If you're with a nice prison guard, they should drop you a spare assault rifle and ammo before you get on the bus if you have to restart. Orgophlax posted:I don't have anything as I lost a garage/vehicle in the original transfer from 360-PC. When was the last time you logged into GTA on 360? Can you still view your garage on your linked 360 account? File a ticket with Rockstar. They might not give you the vehicles, because that would be doing their jobs, but they may give you money to compensate.

I last logged in like a month after the 360 release, then traded it in after deciding to just wait for the PC version, so I couldn't log into it first to update before transferring. And I already filed a ticket with them, so we'll see what happens there.
