I'll probably have to go with a Warrener even though I'd prefer something more gigantic and obnoxious. Honestly I've grabbed a bati and not looked back. Yeah I'm toast if I get shot, but chases are super exciting because if I don't zip down alleys or pop a wheelie to go flying up a cliff then it's all over. Plus people get irrationally mad in jobs when I refuse to hop in their car. Sometimes they change their tune after I driveby shotgun whoever was chasing them, but mostly they stay mad which is fine because seriously I feel safer on a motorcycle than in the passengar seat

Robo Reagan posted:Please tell me I can get the musket on the 360. Also it's depressing only being able to play on the 360 since there's like 30 goons left and I'm not sure if they're active. The musket was released with the independence day update so you should still be allowed to buy it, unless you were actually required to buy it on independence day and you did not.

Every time I level up, I visit the clothes store straight away, to see what's unlocked. Earlier this week I spent half the evening hanging out in the store, dressing up my character. To me, this game is pretty much The Sims with guns.

The Tommy Gun was released two Valentine's Days' ago. As far as I know, it wasn't released again this past February, so if you didn't get last year, you can't. I would imagine there will be a paid DLC down the road to bring the special holiday/loyalty items to everyone.

I forgot to mention it but that article I linked about the PC version stuff coming to consoles also has a preview picture of some of the new content coming in future updates. According to Rockstar, they will have "some very cool new toys" for us to spend our money on, which I imagine starts at 5 digits minimum because the Heists update started rolling out 4-5 figure clothing items. C.R.E.A.M.

Buy a Guardian, paint it something loud, and slam it to the ground along with all the powertrain mods. It is surprisingly quick for it's size.

I'll find that car doing 100 down some back alley but when I need it it's never around. Wiki says that pier parking and observatory but I have never found it there ever. I usually find it in Vinewood in someone's driveway in those hilly neighborhoods

FallinInTheBlak posted:I have never ever completed Simeons requests, do you get a decent reward for time spent at least? Depends on the car and where you found it. Landstalkers and F620s give good returns, FQ2s give some decent change (also common as poo poo). It's a consistent salary, at the very least.

Simeon's missions usually pay around 7k for the cars that aren't hard to find, minus any damages and minus ~780 for paint, oh yea and you have to get rid of a 2 star police rating once you take the car and drive all the way to the southern docks. So, they are actually kind of awful. Selling a Baller or Felon every 45 minutes is way easier and pays more.

I always do the F620 when it's requested because the payout is good and it spawns without fail at the lower pier parking lot.

Also you can't be in passive anymore. It disables it and will kick you out of passive for getting in the vehicle. I found this out the hard way, by getting bombed 2 times, while I knew I was suppose to be in passive mode. Kind of fun and makes going after whoever is in one, more fun. Just wish it wasn't so much a haha you wasted money on a paint job, rather than just get the car there in one piece.

I usually steal the high priority export vehicle, put a remote bomb in it at LSC and then let someone else steal it. Right before they get to Simeon's place I send them a text that just says "Boom" and detonate it. I also used to keep a stock-looking Phoenix on PS3 to do this with. It was my personal car (insured) but it was also rare so I could count on pubbies blasting me and stealing it if they saw me in it.

I found one of the modded Sentinel XS spawns in Vinewood, which sells for just under $15k at a mod shop. It happened to be on Simeon's list, so I took it to him (in perfect condition) thinking I might get bonus cash, but no, it only paid out the normal $9k.

Has anyone done any of the elite heist challenges? They seem pretty absurd, like getting from Rashkovsky to the parachute in 4:40. How do you even do that? You'd have to get to the swat van in like 1m30.

So I blew up some guy's thing and insurance charged me all of my money. I'm just retarded and missed something, right? There's no way for me to do anything to an armored vehicle going on a rampage short of blowing it up and I don't want to believe that I lose money for that poo poo because the dude ran me over five loving times.

I can't begin to describe how mind-numbingly idiotic of a development choice that was to make. There's at least poo poo I can do to get them off me right? Shoot the tires, something? Shooting the driver is tough for me since I'm not used to console shooters.

According to goons you simply shoot him in the head through the narrow slit while he is driving at 80 mph then dive out the way before the car hits you. But yeah GTA Online is basically Bad Decisions: The Video Game so gently caress you.

You'd have to get to the swat van in like 1m30. Me and a friend are grinding the Fleeca heist elite challenge every day now. It pays pretty well, at about an average of 120k per run, which isn't bad for 20 min of work. You can only do it once a day though. The restrictions are ridiculously strict, for the Fleeca heist you pretty much have to start from the Alta St apartment, otherwise you'll fail on the time limit.

I like freeroam because I get to be a dick it's just kind of a downer when I finally manage to do something about an armored vehicle then lose all my loving money. If i'm broke do they get anything?

Can you do it with the mission set to easy? I've never done easy but maybe you can just run and gun through all the Noose then?

The design choice to be able to get the armored Kuruma outside of the Fleeca Heist is what is truly the bad decision, as it trivializes all of the NPCs that don't have explosives... Which I think is all of them.
