How long does that last since I assume it's not considered a Personal Vehicle due to it's size?

Also if I can get online I might try to continue the Humane Labs setup from the other night if any goons are online. I'm also considering making a motor cross type racetrack on the horse racing track. I wish there was a proper racing circuit somewhere.

People are people so why should it be, that you and I should get along so awfully blink blink recall STOP IT YOU POSH LITTLE SHIT
Sultan of GTA sport rallies everywhere: The Sultan

Manufacturer: Karin (Toyota/Subaru/Lexus)
Model: Sultan (Lexus IS with Honda Civic and Surbaru WRX styling)
Drivetrain: AWD
Engine: Twin Turbo V-6

Mountain Climbing: A-



Solid piece of work this machine here is. The incredible grip and rally like suspension allows you to climb hills with absolute ease and to have no fear when the road looks bouncy. The AWD transmission feels absolutely beautiful here and will save your butt if you begin to slide down the mountain. All you need to do is hold brake/handbrake, slowly spin the car, release, then tap the handbrake, and the Sultan should get enough torque to pull you up the mountain at a near steep angle. Larger rocks might be a problem due to how low this thing is. Don't hit them with too much speed or your might bust your hood.

Rock Climbing: D



Rough. This is all that can really be said. Make sure to try and hit rocks at the smallest slope you can or the Sultan will take a pretty big mashing on the front end and get stuck. This is understandable however! Remember I'm rating these like offroaders. Although the Sultan is one of the best vehicles, it's rock skills are very poor. Low speed and slight slopes are the best way to tackle rocks in this thing, or expect a buddy to come along and give you a love tap to get you out of a rough spot and dislodge you.

River Crossing: B



Great drivetrain for offroading, poor ride height. These tend to offset. Make sure you're driving fast and have all wheels hooked to the ground and you will most likely be fine crossing rivers in this. Have a little bit of fear and a possible recovery vehicle if you plan to cross a huge river. The river will not be forgiving to you and if the water goes over the hood your vehicle will have certain bogdown. Bogdown with this low of ride height will spell doom for your beautiful car. Not to say it's bad, because with speed this vehicle can hydroplane across rivers. Just be careful, alright?

Onroad Performance: A+



This cannot be stated enough. This car is excellent for your daily driving needs and is a fixture in any serious GTA player's garage. The tires have so much grip that it takes effort to spin this thing out, especially being all wheel drive. Your only risks on the road in this beautiful car are other drivers. One slightly weird thing is that the engine on dirt roads seems to have a minor issue, hanging at about 8,000 RPM and 75 MPH, driving straight for a while or taking a slight turn makes the RPM jump down, then the car switches gears. Not enough to change the grade though, as that seems like just a minor quirk. Besides, going 75+ on a dirt road will often spell disaster. Sultan means authority or king in Arabic, and that's for sure. This car is king of the road.

I decided I'd polish it up a little bit and publish it. If anyone gives it a go, feedback would be great. Unfortunately it's a bit out of the way and there's an awkward tight spot towards the end I may need to re-route, tiding it up with props only helped so much.

Rough Roads - it probably needs a better name too heh.

edit: my best time so far was about 5:45 in an unmodified carbonizzare during testing.

If I remember correctly, vehicles delivered by Pegasus will remain in-world for 10 minutes if you are not using them or until they get destroyed. Whichever comes first, really.


So long as someone doesn't RPG your dump truck or steals it for a while you will be able to keep it indefinitely.

I'm not sure about that, I've had Pegasus reclaim my Hydra as I was flying it (only for a couple minutes to boot)

I lost all control of the Hydra and got pancaked on the side of a building.

I meant how long until it gets blown up. I'd imagine it might depend to some extent on if there's any players that upgraded and have the Homing Launcher or someone that has either mines or grenades.

Yeah, that's just your character's name. Like the name no one else will ever see and the only time you'll see it is when you go to the character select screen. As far as everyone else goes they will only see your PSN name. At least now I know which game you ended up on my friends list for.

So you know the whole "Everyone has left the server" thing?

Figured out what causes that. It's when a host uses some noob poo poo like Endeavour because Endeavour still has a whole bunch of their console source in it with some server request bullshit.
Keep in mind that the reason for this is cause consoles are so broken that a lot of poo poo that doesn't work on PC still works on console.

Now you know.

I mean congrats and all on having some menu that was around on consoles and all, but holy poo poo they use so many "requests" for things that you don't even need requests for. What in the gently caress, this is Alexander Blade level of stupidity.


In other news: Idle timer is linked to car sale timer and money timer. Dunno how anybody will find this useful for their poo poo, but changing the values for those might get you bad sported or cheater pooled.

Oh also, free roam is actually regarded as a mission by R* , everytime you load in they start a new script called "freemode"

The unarmored Kuruma is really good. It comes just like the armored one does, except it doesn't have the armor. Also you can actually shoot guns out of the windows and drive in first person normally.

Oh, and you won't be a target for griefers because you won't be one of those "im a badass driving in my armored kuruma killing the whole server" type people. I guess that's another downside of not owning an armored kuruma.
