What's the point of these "we gave you weapon x" messages during heists, is that for people who may not have those weapons unlocked/bought? Because I always had my full arsenal during those missions and got confused.

There were a lot of updates in the first year and there were a lot of patches that dealt with various vehicle duplication glitches. I wouldn't be surprised if the data R* had for you was so out of date and just dropped because it had been restructured to deal with various exploits and was waiting on syncing with your console to confirm it was correct and that there was nothing shady going on. Normally you would ask, "well R* had all this data and they should have been able to update it themselves." And I would tell you you're 100% correct on what should have happened. However, this is Rockstar and they can't even get all of my vehicles, etc. to display correctly on Social Club or their iFruit app. I can only see 9 out of 24 vehicles.

Well the really odd thing for me was that I actually did have my car initially after transferring (no garage though). But it disappeared after doing my first mission. EDIT: I'm fairly certain I had insurance on that car, so maybe I'm just forgetting how that mechanic works?

On a different note, how the gently caress are you supposed to do the "land a chopper on a moving truck" flight school class? I've landed like 10 times but it doesn't recognize it, and the chopper just slides off the back.

I am not sure if this is a glitch or working as intended but I noticed that when you do races where you get weapons (like the bikes vs runners one) you keep any extra weapons if you don't have a gun in that slot. Somehow I managed to keep the heavy sniper rifle and the carbine after the event ended. We played a round and then all voted to go back to free mode. So far other then doing heists, I mostly just roam around in free play trying to kill other players. I am a master at running AFK people over and also shooting homing rockets at cars :P Not sure if there is some optimal thing to grind to get RP super fast.

That's weird, according to the social club site, my new GTA Online character should have a bunch of cars in the garage, but I have nothing. Is there some trick to accessing them? Edit: These are under vehicles, nevermind. Garage says "UNABLE TO RETRIEVE PERSONAL VEHICLE DETAILS." Deviant fucked around with this message at 15:30 on Apr 21, 2015 |

What counts as a race win in online? I have literally never won a car race that I can remember, but I have unlocked a bunch of engine parts that require race wins.

Finishing first in a race with 2 or more people in it. You can win-trade by doing one-lap races with a friend on Criminal records - takes about 40 seconds for each race, loading times not included. Keep in mind that some requirements require you to win races in that car's specific class (sports/super/etc) as well

Easiest wins are dirtbike races, as people are absolute poo poo at them. Just lean back and win. Edit: The only odd one out I can remember was some paint required air races I think.

Does anyone happen to have a list of ACTUAL vehicle stats? I bought a bike (Vader, I think, but I've noticed it with all the vehicles I've purchased) and the in-game website says the top speed is ~145mph, but my speedometer tops out ~110 going downhill while leaning forward. Is the top speed based on maxed vehicle upgrades or something? Also, that Prison Break heist. Jesus Christ, we spent 8 hours on the finale, failing time and time again, until we hatched the most ludicrous, super-villain-worthy plan that worked the first time. Payday 3 is a rough game

Where the heck do you see your daily challenges on the PC version? I've honestly spent more than an hour looking for this and simply can't find it. It seems so 'obvious' that nobody mentions it. I looked through every menu I know of. I do get a text message from simeon with a list of cars to steal, but this is apparently unrelated.

Assuming the prisoner has an AR as well as the officer you're pretty much good, the pilot sits with his thumb up his rear end dodging jets and demolitions has a grand old time shooting police helicopters. The only tense moment is the plane pickup. Eregos posted:Where the heck do you see your daily challenges on the PC version?

Mudlark posted:Does anyone happen to have a list of ACTUAL vehicle stats? Don't trust anything rockstar says when it comes to top speed, etc. especially with regards to car instruments or what it says on social club or the sites on which you buy vehicles. It really is for "Display Purposes Only". There are videos out there that show the top speed is 120mph - and that's with an Adder. Even in single player. They found a ~1mile stretch of road set a way point and timed it as the distance reached 0. The social club website is also unreliable. Suddenly my top speed is ~150 in my Cheetah. Last week it was ~146 in my Turismo. I haven't driven my Cheetah in weeks. Top speed, turbo, engine and transmission mods only make a difference in Freeroam or a race without catchup and slipstream. When catchup in on and you're in the lead you can hear your engine drop ~1000rpm and notice your speed slow down. I would be interested to see a video measure the speed difference in that scenario. Here are Rockstar's stats for every vehicle. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1g2Qy84YUrYu_YCcdjMhzDGuNMzwNtjVjIJzdRmrHu6Y/htmlview?sle=true#gid=1868604557 How well they come in to play depends on how well you drive.

You want your highest levels as the guard and prisoner. They have the most health and weapons, and can carry the most extra armor. Pilot gets in the plain, and doesn't fly past the Vinewood sign until the timer is at 1 minute (Jets won't spawn until he is past the sign). When the jets come, the pilot flies behind them, they only spawn one at a time and the AI will just constantly fly in circles unable to shoot the jet (do this over the Alamo Sea, or the jets will shoot at the Demolition guy) Demolitions hovers outside of the prison (stay outside the ring road, if you get too close the prison has SAM batteries that will take you out) shooting NOOSE guys to help cover the Prisoner/Prison Guards escape.

CJ posted: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. The AP pistol is surprisingly effective on them at range. Get the officer to drop you lots of ammo and go to town. Or get the demo player to do flybys and rocket them. He can be above the prison for a bit before it fails.

I think the dumb part about the game at it's current state is having to sit with the interaction menu open to munch on snacks and put on reserve body armor. I can just see my character taking a moment to eat a Twix in the middle of a bank heist.
