Also getting a bunch of people in insurgents and ramming other players is the best! gently caress their karumas.

It's also the first appearance in the Modern GTA games since the PS2 Era. It was the first car you drive in GTA3; a solid car with a cool look [imo]. For some reason it took R* some random update years later to revive this car. Granted it looks nothing like the PS2 era one, good to see another legacy name back in the car library.

My guy dresses like he fell out of GTA: Vice City. :v: White Suit jacket and slacks with pink T-shirt or blue polo underneath. Blue suit jacket, white slacks with pastel pink polo, pink suit jacket with blue shirt and white slacks. etc etc I also have this:



But basically most of my wardrobe is a bad imitation of this guy's fashion:



Though he looks pretty good in a "Payday" suit+Surgical gloves (Mime mask optional) for heists



[edit] I wish there was a car that resembled the Daytona Spyder. I think the Croquette Classic or Stinger Topless are the closest I'm gonna get.



There was one in Vice City... they should just make another 80s GTA. :colbert:

Whatever happened with that contest for someone to win a real-life Banshee? There were pictures of it, it was real, and I assumed that whoever won it was going to immediately sell it since they likely couldn't afford the taxes on a 6-figure car.

I spent 45 minutes looking for a Sultan yesterday. I knew how to find one at the jail parking lot, but couldn't get one to spawn. Finally found one, got it kitted up, I'm happy. I joined a session with a buddy.. and there's one sitting right in front of me at spawn.

I didn't even know that Sultan was so good. I have a JB700 that I foolishly wasted my money on, I was driving it around and crashed it hard, went into a random parking lot, stole a random Sultan, started the engine and immediately fell in love.

Speaking of which, does anyone know a way to sell the cars you purchased online for an amount higher than like... $2000?

Does anyone play capture missions? I didn't know you could put NPC "actors" in them. I had a pretty good time testing out prisoners armed with knives, chasing down The Lost MC, and something about retrieving a VIP's golf cart under guard of the FIB. Now I am trying to make a fun one that involves Ballas, Families, and Korean Rooftop Snipers.

Is there a way to get a proper beard like Michael has in online mode?

The only options I have for beards are increasing levels of stubble, which doesn't remotely cut it.

News to me. Was it the classic GTA3/San andreas banshee, or the newer ones?

quote:

Remember the Bravado Banshee that West Coast Customs built last year to promote Grand Theft Auto V? Given away by GameStop, the woman who won it says she's better off with money to send her two kids to college than with a race car, so now you can steal buy it on eBay.

Some kid won it but since he was under 18 and didn't have a drivers license, his mom technically won it. She drove it for a while. I don't know what they did with it.

Damnit Steve, you know I'm a sucker for Back to the Future references.
So my character will frequently change his hairstyle to bald at random points while I play. Usually happens when I step out of my apartment.

I also know it's not just a graphical glitch for me, because some friends I play with see the same thing. Has anyone had this happen and fixed it? I've gone to a Barbershop in game to change it back, but the non-bald hairstyle is already selected so I can't click it again.

Haven't had that but I've had some weird online bugs, like parking a car in the garage and suddenly having 3 of that same car. :psyduck:

If you log out and log back in, it usually fixes everything. The server data for your character should be accurate, (which is why its showing you that your non-bald hairstyle is already selected) its just somehow the local client data gets waaaaay out of sync.

Good job R* :cheeky:

Wow, just started playing online today and man, I've never felt so satisfied pretending I'm a ne'er-do-well 3rd generation Irish crook robbing liquor stores and gas stations decked out like a used-car salesmen because my dude probably thinks it'll get him all the ladies, especially the ones he pays with greasy bills that smell like ethanol and beef jerky.

A couple questions though, being a humble level 4 barely outta juvie, I don't have access to stuff like oh say, body armor and anything bigger than a pop-gun yet, but I still get messages for heists. Should I say gently caress it and go for it or should I level up a bit so I don't have to try to shoot my way out of an army base armed with nothing but a glock and dark sunglasses while my fellow heisters question my masculinity?

Also, police helicocksuckers, how do you lose em? So far I've evaded two by sheer luck, once by accidentally driving off a peer and hiding in a tunnel, and the other... well, I'm not sure if he just lost interest or I managed to somehow get just beyond his care range. Anybody know how they work/best way to duck em/ ect?

The armor is a problem, but there are plenty of guns on the right wall that have no level requirement.

You said it, tunnels are the easiest guaranteed way to lose cops. Either head for the sewers or find some train tracks and follow them to a tunnel. If a chopper is already on you, then its pretty drat hard to get away from him purely using speed.
