Friends and I have started playing recently. Is there any 5+ player co-op content? And if so what's the best way for new players to unlock it?

MC Club stuff you can have up to 8, thats all free-roam stuff
Racing
Some contact missions allow up to 6 or 8 but thats a weird number
Got some fun modes that are either 8 exactly(hunting pack), or more than 8 (funnels derby, RPG/insurgent, etc)

so i'm an absolute idiot what's the go to for just doing missions and leveling up? join on whatever job list message pops from Gerald or whatever? Should it be looking for specific quick jobs or easy missions people are running over and over?

The Martin Madrazzo Dispatch missions are easy money, specifically Dispatch III and Dispatch VI, which when you have them down can be done in under 4 minutes. The real trick is losing the cops quickly, which if you go to the train tracks on the west side of the construction tower (easy to find since you can see it from all over the city), the cops VERY rarely enter. Dispatch IV and V are also relatively easy to do when you get the rhythm, they pay better, but are not quite the speed of III and VI.

Blow up, III, I think? Would like a word with you. But it’s been a while, so I don’t know... maybe it’s not as quick as I remember

The extra 1 million from I think twitch just got into my account and I used it to finish upgraded the Chumash bunker. Switched from research to manufacturing so now I can focus on leveling up and doing other poo poo while this place (hopefully) makes me money.

Is there any way to access to the bunker from outside of it or will I need to make the truck here anytime I gotta do anything for it? Do I get notified when it runs out of supplies?

No, yes, and no.

You can get the Master Control Panel in an Arcade to buy supplies or start sourcing missions but you still need to drive up to your bunker to get into the vehicles - kinda useless.

It will make you money if you do it right.

Buy supplies for 75k. Wait 140 minutes and do other things like headhunter or sightseer or Import/export. Sell your stock for 210k.

One load of supplies is always a solo sale mission so you'll never need to ask for help. I advise against letting your stock pile up because then your momentum gets halted till you can get people to help sell.

Also never Steal Supplies, it's a huge waste of time and only fills you 20-40% of the way.

Yeah the problem is the Blow Up missions aren't in the "complete a mission, these are in your next five missions of choice" cycle, whereas the Dispatch 3, 5, and 6 missions you can play with a decent crew pretty much continuously right now (like you train a group of 3 others in the lvl 5-25 range and they will loyally follow you for hours just to get the same RP and money as you).

e: Oh, MP5, if you're the author of the good google docs guide, you might think of adding the Los-Santos-Slasher serial killer/navy-revolver 3rd RDR2 $250k quest to the easy-money section. I did it last night in about 45 min, and then took 2 others through it today in about 30 min apiece while we were waiting for Maude to drop her bounties. The only sticky spot was finding the last clue as it randomizes between 3-4 spots.

The problem with this suggestion is that the payout of the mission is directly related to how long you take doing the mission, up to something like 15 minutes. So any mission you complete quickly is going to pay less. Unless I'm wrong about this?

Kill it when the transaction thing pops up in the lower right, pretty much as soon as the cutscene starts

Yeah, I found it to be pretty forgiving. Once you've done it a couple times, invest in switching to the Paleto facility if you don't have it already. It really makes the grind so much quicker/easier

Why? After you've done doomsday once the only reason to go to the facility anymore is to run Bogdan and the paleto one slashes the runtime and is cheap

I usually play with M+KB but whenever the situation calls for flying some kind of aircraft I quickly pick up my 360 pad which is generally active during gameplay. But compared to the pad shooting with MKB is aeons easier, especially from cars.

Just ran the Fleeca job with a random dude and that was pretty fun except for the times we each hosed up. Now I have a fun armored Kuruma. I got the hang of the bunker manufacturing / selling loop so now I’m doing that while messing about in random jobs to level up.

Can’t decide if I want my next big purchase to be the Buzzard or a I/E garage to have an additional source of income.

I’m not going to even try to mess with the oppressor until I can afford everything else that needs.
