Don't hate the player, hate the game.
Taking a quick break, my hand hurts more than it does from 3 AM to 4:30 AM. I hope that one of you picks up dat crate in 5 mins (whoever was at the beach)

Also the golden plane is a waste of money, you can't even ROLEPLAY in it like drinking alcohol and smoking fat bongz if you're flying upside down. gently caress that.

The cargoplane is my all time favorite :D

Does anyone know if race wins are tracked on the player or on each individual character? Like if my male wins a sea race does the female also get new paint colours?

You have to win races on each character to unlock stuff.

Hey Xbone crew, how about today for the crew loyalty challenge? We can also do it all in order so anybody who doesn't have that challenge can get that done. I'm willing to sit down and play through all the heists in one sitting depending on how many times we fail.

How does 7pm GMT/Midday PST/3pm EST sound?

drat, I need to get the loyalty challenge too, but I'll be out most of the day.

Not to my knowledge. Most pubbies suck at air races and most will quit the sea race shortly after starting.

Planes are okay, choppers are super janky, it's impossible to maintain fast, level flight in them.

Edit: I might be a little late getting on for the heist group due to getting my dinner, no more than about 20 minutes I reckon though.

Flying and driving are like the only things i'm good at. It's why I happily volunteer to pilot on heists and missions, but keep me away from the shooting bits. I'll gladly fly a 'Bob or Mammatus through tight spaces over trying to do close quarters gunfights against the laser AI.

Seriously, even low-level shithead gangbangers are like balls-out Tier 1 Operators in heists and missions. It's loving insane.

The NPCs have quick reaction time, insane accuracy, and do a ton of damage. If at least one of those things were reduced a little bit it would really help combat. I think the combat was designed with aim assist in mind and the extra time it takes to aim and shoot with free aim adds a little bit of difficulty on top of that.

Hexenritter
May 20, 2001


That's my line of thinking too. Aim-assisted with the controller, snapfired headshots on almost completely obscured targets mean you can drop three or four guys in about a second.

edit: Also, PC Gamer's review in last month's issue mentioned that in Online, you can actually watch police chases on the TV that aren't pre-recorded segments, but actual as-it-happens footage of another player. If that's the case, that's pretty awesome.

The trick is to use cover, blindfire to put guys into a painstate then pop out and burst heads. Also always be throwing grenades. Rooftop rumble is a good mission to practice solo npc slaying because those guys are insanely accurate and high damage.

Some q&a with regards to receiving modded money, banking it, etc.. In short you shouldn't have to worry about being sent to the cheaters pool if you receive it. Spend away! everything bought will remain bought. Tho adjusted balance may be less when it does get around to being fixed.

After trying out the Virgo in races, I have decided that it sounds great, but has no other redeeming qualities.

Now I'm upset that I sold my Phoenix because apparently you can't buy those, and I am bad at car hunting.
