I play constantly without a mic on missions, because there's not really poo poo you ever need to communicate for. Don't suck and you can do virtually all of the missions alone. You don't need to talk to me to get the mission done, just do the mission and don't suck.

Mics are for free roam and loving around playlists.

Man, if you think not communicating with anyone in multiplayer games is fun as-is, you'll be amazed by how much more fun they are when you play them with other people and you're not anti-social.

You only need to blow up his kuruma twice, after that the mechanic will be on a cooldown for five minutes. If you cant figure out how to rustle up an easy 2k to place a couple of bounties in this game you're probably mentally subnormal.

Also stop getting mad at kuruma noobs. If they're outplaying you, you're awful.

Well, it was actually a squad of Insurgent noobs throwing explosives, with a Buzzard friend, versus me on foot with the few weapons my rank 10 rear end had unlocked, mostly out of ammo from attempting to defend myself. If that is outplaying me then :shrug: I must be awful. To be honest I should have probably gone into passive mode, but I was in the middle of trying to do something unrelated to said death squad.

Pretty sure you can, just go buy them, everything is free as far as I can see, also noticed my stilt house has a Christmas tree up. Going to check my yacht next.
EDIT: The yacht has a tree up at the top of the stairs on the second floor. Sadly they've not seen fit to give the bartender a festive makeover.

You could last year as well, but once the event was over, the clothes dissappear from your inventory. Which probably explains the price tag...

There are options for random placement or last location too. Also you can go to an owned garage if you like.

They are supposed to, but only if you haven't logged in.

I know I have gone more than a month without playing, then logged in to see that my main character had not lost anything (all stats maxed), while my level 70-something alt was almost completely wiped.

The alt had been maxed except for lung capacity, it may be that stats don't degrade once all stats are completely topped?

E: get a PS4 for christmas instead and I will help you complete the heists and look super fine while doing it

More important than stats, I think progress with strippers resets to like 10% if you take a break from wasting sharkcard money on them, unless you hit 100% with them.

Lol if you think you need shark cards for strippers it takes like 80 dollars to 120 to max one of them out. If that amount of cash is a bridge to far I have bad news.

Non-public sessions are a thing. Besides, if I ever bought a sharkcard and bought something flashy, I'd probably do it to show off to friends not that I have any rather than pubbies.

I'm fine with them taking the outfits away if it means I don't have to drop $300K on a mask and pajamas. There's something really fun about every player going Christmas insane for 2 weeks out of the year and it would lose something if it became another Shark Card grab.

That said I may be on PS4 a bit later if any goons want to let me hang out on their boats. I don't have my headset but we can communicate via points and taunts.

If you ditch a bigass plane, and it "crashes" in the distance out of your immediate render range, but it's still in your long distance render range, it apparently just bounces around the skyline
Either that, or Mike is a modder and made his plane damage-proof.
