Everyone thinks that because heists came out and they didn't want to run another even or whatever. But then they ran the independence day event and three days later did the ill gotten gains update.

If it was because of heists that's a really stupid reason considering it was a month+ before and nearly all of the stuff being available and what not is / was in their tunables - or whatever they are using now to turn on time-related content (see christmas snow).

I'm just pointing out that R* set the precedent that these are not guaranteed yearly events. So saying with any degree of certainty what will or won't be in the game 7 months into the future is a bad expectation.

The 4th of July before last, when Hugh Malone was still around, we spent hours setting up 30+ customs at the parking lot golf course. This involved using 4 people as watchstanders to keep all the cars in someone's frame to keep them from despawning. We laid out intricate patterns of fireworks and had people standing by with fireworks launchers. We waited until sunset in-game, with the idea being that a couple of cameramen would have only a few moments to snap pictures of hundreds of fireworks going off around a parking lot packed full of rare, lesser-used, or otherwise interesting customs.

Due to miscommunications and (my) user error none of the fireworks went off at the same time and nobody took any pictures.

E: I kept hitting the wrong button while trying to place the ground fireworks, which was setting off the ones I'd already placed.

I'm trying to set "poorboy" on my Rhapsody, but the GTAO section of my garage only lists 9 cars (out of 30), which excludes the Rhapsody.

The GTAO section shows approximately the last 10 cars you have driven. To get the rhapsody to show up, pull it out of the garage and drive it for a few seconds then let the app refresh and it'll be in the list somewhere.

I figured that's how it works after it eventually showed up on my list trying to get another car's license plate to be processed.

In other news, how long does it take for a license plate order to go through? I submitted it at like 10am and it still hadn't activated by 5pm. I even tried exiting and relaunching. Took the car to the mod shop every now and then and the option to finish the order never popped up.

Awesome, glad someone recorded our free ride car show! For a spur of the moment thing, it went surprisingly well.

it's not even my favourite moment from that session as well; it's going to take a lot to top the terror that strafing parachutists in a Hydra caused. Sociopathic good times :v:

:lol: that was a lot of fun. I love just driving around with you trying dumb stuff and getting proxy kills all the while.
Not sure why I didn't get dinged for his vehicle that time, but I'm not complaining. Pretty sure I spent well over $80, 000 on insurance bills for all the vehicles we were blowing up.
Also, some of the locations we are setting these proxy mines are so devious . It's great.

I bought an Asus Strix 970. It runs really cool and gta is ultra smooth and I think I even saw the fans stop spinning a couple of times when I wasn't looking out a window, in my apartment.

It's a bit on the pricey side (425CAD) but my 560ti lasted 5(?) years. If this does the same it's well worth the cost.

I used to hate the lab setup where you must sneak the Insurgent into the lab.

I joined a pubbie attempt on that setup so my expectations were low. Then I heard all 3 speaking Korean on voice chat briefly. Then one of the Koreans ran forward with his rifle and solo'd the entire loving setup flawlessly in like 35 seconds.

What game are we playing?

I feel like we called in the airstrike too early. There was still quite a bit of drama with TopHat's being hunted relentlessly by mercenaries and knife wielding hobos; all under the supervision of the LSPD.

I would recommend you also take a look at the mumble thread posted in the OP; mumble is a great way to find GTA pc goons to play with and makes things like finding uncommon vehicle spawns and completing daily objectives much easier
