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?

When you upgrade your bunker with Living Quarters you are able to set your Bunker as a spawn location when you join a new lobby, so you can session hop and warp to it that way.

Do people on PC generally play with mouse + keyboard? I feel like i spend 90% of this game driving so i've just plugged in a gamepad.

I play with a controller 90% of the time and move a hand to the mouse for guns. It's not GREAT for playing on Free Aim but I prefer not being instantly popped by other players on an assisted aim mode.

For this game anyway. RDO has different values when it comes to aiming.

my friends and I have been having fun screwing around in chill lobbies. I tried recording it, the quality isn't great, but I like using it as proof that cool lobbies exist on PC.

I scrounged up enough to buy the cheapest car warehouse and I'm not building up my stock of standard/mid vehicles so I can make the move to top end I/E for money while my bunker does its thing. I am INCREDIBLY loving bad at latching anything to the cargobob. Just horrendous poo poo.

I also did a bunch of hunter remix today and it's fun as hell for the money and RP you're getting but some matches can drag for a bit too long.

Cargobob just takes a little practice. Unless you're trying to keyboard it in which case it takes a controller and a little practice.

Friday and Saturday shenanigans? Understandable. People willing to play on Sunday night because the next day is a holiday? Makes sense. People playing on a Monday night? Well, we are in a pandemic.

I had a hunch that I could earn $2M by doing the 10 objective challenge with each of my characters. Turns out my hunch was correct!

It took a good few days for mine to show up.

Do today’s objectives count for the 1M? I didn’t get to 15 until 4 days ago so today was the 10th objective I could complete and I did not immediately get the $1M.

It comes immediately when the 10th one is registered as complete. Any number of R* reasons that the "official" count is not what you expect. best is to keep doing them until you get confirmation if possible

Same happened to me. I tripped the million (and received it instantly) on the first objective on my 5th day of doing all objectives (almost like 1 day just did not count.)

You SHOULD be able to get 3 objectives "today" and then another set of 3 after 2amEST tonight. So that's 6 remaining. And then a couple hours after that, around 4am EST is when the changeover happens and that again should be the end of the objectives challenge

After some planning I'm thinking about taking the lazy crimelord route - namely, buying the clubhouse at Vespucci beach and then the counterfeit cash factory at Vespucci canal, which are both near my Maze bank office and apartment across the street. Then maybe the arcade right nearby and I'll rule that part of town.

Dog ended waking me up around 4 just now so I said gently caress it and got in game to try this. Did a single objective just now and it triggered the reward. Got my million bucks so thanks for the tip!

Is there anything more rewarding than taunting a hacker to leave via text chat and occasionally sniping them? If not I think I may have reached nirvana twice tonight and will never feel anything greater.

On the plus side you don't have to regret that Nightclub purchase. :)

The last couple of months have had a lot of good weeks for making cash and last weeks was clearly there to leech a lot of the cash back off by offering a lot of discounts on some of the more unique vehicles. I'd expect in a week or two something good for money making will come on.

Anyway, you should buy an issi classic and put a surfboard on it's roof.

I’ll try those out. I used this morning’s objective million + some quick I/E to buy the terrorbyte and I just wrapped out the 5 client missions so I am set for saving and buying the Oppressor. Just need the 3 or so million + the half a mill for the workstation then however loving much I need to actually upgrade the thing.

Well today was productive as hell. I got the terrorbyte AND the oppressor. I can’t afford the work station (or any upgrades for it) yet but I can now zoom around like an idiot. Going to stick with the Kuruma + Buzzard combo for my day to day mission running. I like being able to have both out when doing certain missions and a unupgraded oppressor is kinda lame.

I’m one mid car away from having the 20 needed for the only source top end cars but I’m pretty much only getting top end cars already. My current loops is do a bank robber from the terrorbyte, follow it up with a headhunter, then export a top end car before going back in the loop.

I had a good run of all 6 dispatch missions with some pubbies but I didn’t really get to do anything. One dude with a kitted out oppressor would basically clear poo poo by the time the rest of us drove there. My favorite run was doing Dispatch 1 when oppressor dude switched it to the armored SUV thing with a mini gun on the back (insurgent, I think?) I got on the gun and he drove it right to the door of the police station. I stayed on the gun and spent 2 minutes just shooting the absolute hell out of SWAT and Police while they cleared poo poo inside. It was loving awesome and that or the night shark are going to be my next goal once I finish setting up the oppressor.

A lot of people grab flares for it. I highly recommend chaff. Chaff and map awareness will serve you way better against other oppressors who can rapid fire enough missiles that the flares ultimately can't stop.

For these dispatch mission, is it more efficient to rush them (I can do 3 and 6 in like 3-4 minutes) or do I stall / wait it out for 10-15 minutes for more money per run?

4-6 minutes is the optimal time for missions, here is a chart explaining mission payouts
