Just started playing this with a friend. I'm noticing something weird though, I'm consistently getting less RP than he is. We're friends, we're in the same crew, and getting the same cash. Even in the missions where I'm doing the heavy lifting and have better more kills as well as hauling the mcguffin around I still get less. Hell, when I do missions with randoms I'm getting less RP than the crewless afks that pop up. Did I mess something up somewhere?

Cojawfee posted:Have you already done these missions? You get less RP when you redo them. But sometimes this bugs out and you don't get the bonus RP for doing it the first time. They're on missions we've both done before. It's like a consistent 300-400 lower.

I'd love to roll around in an armor plated muscle car on offroad tires Hell, add the ability to pimp out big rigs.

I got all the stripper's numbers assuming there would be an award for it (there isn't) and now my phone is packed with useless contacts.

Harmburger posted:There's actually a pretty reliable way of taking out an Insurgent in one go. Being that it takes about 5 stickies, and you can have five active stickies, just take some inspiration from terrorists: Suicide bomb. Take any car, though preferably fast, throw five stickies on the front. Drive into the insurgent and detonate. It's probably pubbies missing/shooting for my face and not the car, but I've never been blown up on the way in. They're always super pissed on how I did it so quickly. My favorite way is to drag them into the water with a cargobob. It's too heavy to gain altitude, but it can drag it well.

I borderline despise hackers that are just 'huehue I troll u", doing poo poo like deleting weapons and freezing. I already run into a hacker almost every time I boot the game up and they're annoying as hell. Giving one a pass because he's a goon and only does it to goons "on accident" and relentlessly to others does not sound like a fun person to play with. Rockstar doesn't seem to give a poo poo about banning hackers anyway, so whatever, I guess.

A hacker dumped 14 mil on me the other night. Scrounging for money was getting annoying, being that I couldn't find a half-competent heist crew. So I'm happy as hell.

TheDarkFlame posted:People love to gently caress with high priority vehicles. Camping the vehicle, loading it with stickies or mines, stealing it just to joyride it down a mountain and into the ocean, chase it down in a jet, whatever. The best one I had was when I had almost got it to storage and then someone crashed a loving plane into me. I inadvertently gently caress with it. Whenever I free roam I put out proximity mines: -Simeon's garage -airport ramp -downtown mod shop -Eclipse towers -La Puerta helipad Then I just go wherever, seeing people rage at me and trying to hunt me down after dying at the airport when I'm in Paleto Bay is hilarious.

Nintendo Kid posted:It's not because it's too overpowered, it's because it's only obtainable in Online through glitches and hacking. I think he meant in terms of "why would they allow the Kuruma and Insurgent, but not have the DoD" Which, makes sense to me. I mean, they had everything done for the DoD, as it was in the base game. Why spend time and resources making the armored Kuruma when they could simply "unlock" the DoD in online. I know it has more mass or something, as it can plow away buses without much issues, but tweaking a few values would have to be easier then designing a new car.

Nintendo Kid posted:Because they were expressly created as parts and rewards for heists, and slapped with hefty price tags. Also doesn't the Duke o Death only seat 2? The Duke o Death does only seat 2. And the heist that the kuruma was used in was only for 2 people. Hefty price tag means nothing, they could have slapped the DoD with the same price tag.

Nintendo Kid posted:I like 3 Alta Street, Apartment. 10 and 3 Alta Street, Apartment. 57. Almost the cheapest apartments that can still be used for heists, and they're right smack dab in the center of LS by the unfinished skyscraper and light rail stop, which means easy escapes from the cops. That and it's close to the La Puerta helipad, not too far from an Ammunation, and the Eastern Mod Shop is easy to get to.

Main thing I like about either Alta apartment is that you can see the garage entrance from your window so you know if someone's camping it.

I'm in the same boat. I like messing around in free roam more than playing the same cookie-cutter missions over and over again. I've never liked grinding, it's why I don't really get into MMO's

theguybro posted:See? And R* charges crazy amounts for the fun stuff. Like the new "golden painted jet" will run you $100bux + some more, if you bought it with real money, or a year to grind out heists. What are you playing on anyways? Console or PC? I'm on PC, I've yet to play with goons. I just play with my roommate most of the time. A hacker dropped like 12 mil on me and I've been coasting on that and got some fun stuff. I'm starting to run low on funds. Blowing up Kurumas adds up after a while.

When I log in, it shows the popup that says it's unlocked, but when I try and purchase it, it says it's locked at Rank 1. I am Rank 45. I've tried restarting the game, but nothing changed. I submitted a ticket with R*, I guess I'll just have to wait and see what they say. There are a couple posts on their forums where others are having the same issue. Same is happening to me. I'm also getting constant popups about the Los Santos Belle shirt getting unlocked, as well as "4 new clothing items"

The Innovation isn't terrible. But then again, you have to actually buy one and devote the garage space to something that is strictly worse than something like an Akuma.

Anime_Otaku posted:If you want a military aircraft, unless you're at the point Annihilators start spawning at helipads then you really need to have the "cops turns blind eye" ability from Lester to get out of the base safely, actually getting to the runway is pretty hard too but you pretty much will get shot down if you make it. -ramp in via the gravel road + hill from the north with most cars (kuruma works best for obvious reasons) -go straight to the first enclosed hangar -get in jet -full power, take off quickly It's never failed me. I find staying low and maintaining speed instead of climbing helps to prevent locks from NPC jets.

I'm a rock fan (mostly classic and stuff like White Stripes, Queens of the Stone age, etc...) and I find the radio stations lacking. The classic station is good but the DJ is annoying as hell. VBR is fantastic though. To me it feels like most of the stations are either rap, hip hop, or in spanish.

Must be a confirmation bias why it feels like a lot of rap to me. It seems like whenever I get in a vehicle it's on rap.

I recently did a reinstall due to a hardware upgrade. I lost my single-player save so that is in no way an option. I'm sure there are others in the same boat.
