So as someone who is interested in the PC version, is there a goon PC community or would it be a waste to buy now? Also how is online anyway? I haven't played since, like, the game first released on PS3.

So glad to see 0 has changed in like a month or 2 with hackers vaporizing the entire server.

How common is this? :v:

I bought the game for me and a friend on pc and we had an absolute laugh riot last night trying and failing missions. Ran into a few hackers but whatever, just mostly stayed in private sessions and it was fine.

I'm still repping 1009 though. I should probably join LLJK instead by this point.

So I just replayed through the story mode and now I've got the online bug again. What are people doing for fun in online nowadays? I got randomly invited into LLJK, so I'm all set there, I think. I've done the heists and such.

We ended up doing a bunch of Bike FUNnel and RPGs versus Insurgents. Unsurprisingly, with 20 or so people, things got a little nuts.

Afterwards, we had a car show, with the basic theme of bring your favorite car.






Like all good things, it ended poorly.



We then detoured to the airport and stole a Luxor.





The flight promptly ended when the pilot tried to knife flight through buildings.

Was a complete blast, hope we get that many people in again soon.

Excuuuuuuse me, that was my own personal Luxor we were flying. And it, uh, totally wasn't me who crashed it.

If it's not mine I just assume we stole it. :colbert:

Do you think they're going to support GTA5 until GTA6 comes out?

Absolutely. GTA Online has become Rockstar's biggest money maker thanks to the microtransactions. They're going to probably provide free DLC until GTA6.

I made a race, it's probably bad, but I'm getting a handle on the race creator. Definitely will mess around with this more.

Also the loving filter for descriptions sucks rear end. Anything more than I put into the description was "forbidden" and I have no idea why.

So do you need an office and a warehouse? I've got just over 3 mill banked. I wonder if that's enough.

More than enough to get started. Admittedly I don't know if there's any gameplay difference between offices but you can get the cheapest office for 1 million without upgrades and then the small warehouse for about 250 - 500k. Which is enough to get started. I moved 2 crates and got about the same as a sightseer mission for slightly more time, but more enjoyable too.

Cool. I'll mess around with it when I get home from work then.

Honestly completing a pick up or sale should immediately trigger an associate paycheck. I think it does so currently for the sale but not pickups. That would make it way better to remain a loyal associate over the long term and see a job to the end.

I think when I get home today I'm going to venture into the public wilds to see if I can hire some pubs to get my warehouse filled and sold so I can upgrade to a medium warehouse.

I also need to think of a new Corp name that isn't just a reference. 'Gangland Waste' is my current top candidate.

I think the trick is to just slowly fill your WH when you are loving around in open, then when it's time to empty it get on Mumble and line up enough goons to cover your sale safely. Once you've sold yours, you help anyone else that needs to sell theirs, and so on...

Thats exactly what I was thinking.

Has anyone had a warehouse attack happen? I heard people saying it could happen last night.

Aside from looking cooler, there's no reason to add the amenities and interior decorations to an office, right? No bonus to missions and such

The only thing that has a benefit is the gun safe. Otherwise, the 4 million+ office works the same as the bare minimum.

Put in a ticket to Rockstar and bug them on Twitter. That sounds like the best way to ensure your ticket gets answered.

I would love to do criminal mastermind, but I don't trust myself 100% not to die at the bank heist on-foot getaway. I've done it dozens of times but I would be embarrassed as hell if I ruined things for 3 other people because putting on armor is so cumbersome.

I wish the first person heist bonus wasn't so piddly, 100k is nothing. It sounds really fun to do though so thats why its not worth anything.

I fully expect to die in really dumb ways along the way so don't let that stop you.
