Ugh I hosed up so hard on the bank heist finale. All in the boat with 900k, I skid out on one of the banks, get too much air and land on the other shoreline just a bit too far from the river. We all started kicking the boat to get it back in the river and it catches fire, blowing me up.

Is there any way to make the text box when you press T keep focus and not the game? Every time I type something it puts all key presses in the game too. Changes camera, jumps out of the car, etc.

If you find one, please tell me. The "jumping out of things" part is by far the most annoying - and dangerous - part, especially in heists.

Re: Stat grinding:

Starhawk64 posted:

Is there a benefit from having a maxed out strength stat besides looking buff and knocking out peds with one punch? Also it's weird that playing golf would boost that stat.

Supposedly it adds damage reduction, I'm not sure how much though.

Policenaut posted:

Max out strength really fast by playing one hole of golf over and over again. There's some that are Par 2.

That was patched about a million years ago. The only way I managed to move my strength bars with golf was by playing a full game.

If you want to grind strength, create a valid deathmatch, restrict weapons to jerry cans then test it. It will still take about an hour but you can beat up NPCs who a) don't alert cops (ie. no need to start a Gerald mission), b) don't die in one hit and c) don't run away (the most annoying part of beating up people on the beach, IMO).

We failed this finale last night around six times all due to one pubbie, the only non-LLJK player, before finally giving up. Finally I think the host just kicked him and forfeited the heist. On the first attempt the three of us goons were standing in the drat boat waiting, and he died because he tripped running down the hill on foot after abandoning the bike before the jump.

I have here a list of 84 names all of whom are up for execution. What I've done is go through half of the crew and find everybody who registered in 2014 and look at their last social club activity to see whether or not they are active, anybody who had a last activity of 4 months or greater has potentially been put on this list. Also on this list are a few members I found repping different crews and who were also not on the whitelist.

CTRL+F your social club name to see if you are on this list!


I'm going to give everybody on this list until next Friday to get back to me either via quoting this post along with your social club name or via a private messaging containing your social club name.

e: To clarify: when I say "via quoting this post" I mean quoting this post and removing all of the names but your own.

Yeah. Were you getting lag at all? We rocked the bank robbery but I was also getting pretty bad lag during the escape, which, ironically, made it easier to avoid the cops.

Edit: That guy was also like Rank 18 or something.

The only thing I noticed is that the vehicle pop-in was like, 5 seconds too late. I was riding along thinking, "why are there no cars anywhere?" and they suddenly started to populate. But then when Pubmaster Flex would eventually fail, the hud would go away like the fail screen was coming... and then it didn't come and I could keep playing for like a minute before it did.
