Demitri Omni posted:Can you winswap on created tracks? Yup. I made a track around the horse track. I made it a utility only race, and went and got myself a Sadler, and quickly got 50 races won within an hour or two. You also get to enjoy people getting really mad at the fact that you have a truck and they have a tractor.

If you want to be more covert about trollwinning utility races, get a Faggio and upgrade it. Most people aren't going to upgrade one because it's a waste of cash. Also keep it a default color as to trick people into thinking it's also stock.

I'm a bit confused why rockstar shows I am the correct crew rank of 74, but in game now I am 45? I don't get it.

Powershift posted:good tips I'm not sure if this is known, but I managed to bring a Kumura on the the Hack job on Pacific Standard the other day. You drive one over to the van, get everyone in the van, get someone back in the Kumura to follow the van to the spot, then get back in the kumura and kill everyone. It makes the assault part of the job EZPZ.

It makes the assault part of the job EZPZ. I didn't put it in there because it's the same as pretty much every other "gently caress poo poo up with a karuma" mission, but you can start any mission with your karuma out, go wherever and do whatever, then hit "request personal vehicle" through the interaction menu. This does get disabled if you fail some missions and your vehicles are removed from the map, but for some you can keep a vehicle in the insurance company's system, get them to replace it through the phone, and then request it through the interaction menu.

That's true. Also, on the Series A Coke mission, the helicopter can just land on the shore and get in the boat with the boat crew. I find it makes the assault more predictable and the team more cohesive. Then you take the tunnel on the shore for exfil. It's a pretty different approach, but I find most people can't fly helicopters for poo poo.

QuantumNinja posted:That's true. The "land on the boat" strategy is preferred because the getaway is about half the time. The only other substantial addition I would make is to reiterate that on the Pac Standard finale, one guy loads all the cash and that guy doesn't play Rambo during the alley getaway. Don't charge out the bank doors until the other 3 have cleared it, don't rush in the alley, let the other guys shoot everything, pretty much don't do a god-damned thing the entire time except stay in cover. You're dropping everyone's money, just sit there and babysit it. Slim Killington fucked around with this message at 23:47 on May 10, 2015 |

I addressed that. use the karuma/insurgent and drive it off the cliff at the parachute jump checkpoint with everybody in it. Don't bail out, ride that bitch to the ground. They don't explode on hard landings like normal cars. if you don't hit the checkpoint at the parachute jump, the cops don't get off you and the moneybag and potentially players can get hosed up by police helicopters/cops on shore. They have lazer aim at that moneybag on hard.

I found out that you can speed run Cleaning Out the Cat House (I think is the name) by trivializing it with a helicopter landing on the roof. Avoids any shooting and the 'escort' triggers immediately since she's on the second floor.

Abilifier and I found some pubbies to play with, we went to the pier and went on the roller-coaster twice and once on the Ferris wheel:      Then we went to the strip club and two other pubbies ruined all of our fun.

Slim Killington posted:The "land on the boat" strategy is preferred because the getaway is about half the time. To add to this, cops will spawn behind you and kill you dead if you're not careful. Two guys should take point, one dude should watch the rear, and the money boy should stay behind cover between them and only shoot if absolutely necessary. Another heist tip: The heavy outfits let you take a lot more damage, which makes them pretty useful when trying for Criminal Mastermind. However, they're not available by default in a lot of mission (most egregiously the Pacific Standard finale). But! You can make your own by going to a clothes store, creating and saving an outfit that includes the black or grey utility vest, and then have the host pick player-owned outfits. You'll know if your outfit works if you can't sprint. Add a bulletproof helmet to your outfit for extra credit.

Heist armor isn't actually useful if you're carrying cash in the Pac Std heist, as the loss of money is done by how many times you get hit, and not the damage you take. They're useful for everyone else though.

They don't explode on hard landings like normal cars. Yes Karumas can explode on impact. We managed that the other day when trying to get down the mountain. So we restarted and took the dirt road to the boat then when getting out of there, stay to the right and avoid the incoming police boats. Got out with 12.1. Would have been more but 2 security guards weren't taken care of and lost 25k as soon as I walked out the vault.

Do the old ones show up in game(like the Weazel news one I made)? Anyone on PC want to schedule some heists with me? I'd prefer not to powergame them as I haven't played any of them and would like to get the whole experience. Any major things I need to know change since early 2014? No. This was fixed very early on last gen.

LuciferMorningstar posted:What should someone new to this be doing? Mess around a bit while earning money. Join races, do missions, check out some cars and stuff. When you hit level 12+ and have at least 200k funds you can buy a high end apartment, and from there start doing heists, which is where the real meat and profits of the game is.

Is there any particular reason why the VAST majority of heist invites I get are for Prison Break? If I had to guess, it's because it's the easiest/quickest, but I wouldn't know since every heist attempt I've been on is with people who are abysmally bad at this game and we fail within ten minutes.

You invite them all inside your apartment, then move everyone to the garage. Inside the garage, everyone can get in your car after you do. Make sure everyone is in the car before you drive out and make sure no one jumps out during the chase or they won't be getting back in.

You have to get everybody close to the door, and when you enter the apartment, hit "enter apartment with nearby players". then boot everybody to the garage, pile in the karuma and enjoy actually making money in the heist. edit: what mondian said, i had the response window open for a while.. We just got out of a batshit thrash session with tanks on top of dump trucks and wheelies everywhere and such. tons of fun.

vug posted:What does it mean when pubbies start following you round in freemode, not attacking or talking, just following you Probably, I get messages and in-game texts all the time, a lot of people also stop and honk their horn for me to get into their car. I even get invited to party chat and they're, for some reason, really shocked when they find out I am in fact not a girl that they kick me on occasion, so now I usually sit in silence to hear what they say. That being said I've actually met quite a few cool pubbies over the year and a half that online has been released.

I imagine that's overwhelmingly the reason and not just because "yer purddyyy hyuk" but my faith has been tested before.

Set a waypoint straight for the boat and just drive the car straight there. The suggested path is just that, suggested, and rather pointless if you are in a car.
