It's too bad the times of excessive glitching are over. Making bajillions by driving dead people into your garage was so much fun.

I'm sure the PC version will revive this.

A real pro glitched the money to own all of the super cars, because he was upset at the freemium economy and felt entitled to the money, as well as justified since no other cheaters got punished.

Does anyone remember how to do the helmet+mask glitch? I was rocking a white helmet with pig mask on the PS3 but I don't remember how to do it.

Also did the transfer reset character appeareance? I kind of clicked through it and my character looks nothing like I remember. Can I change the appearance or am I poo poo out of luck?

drat, should have made it a feature instead.

At first it should give a close approximation of what your character looked like. And you definitely can change it when you import your character and your ALT. I don't know about changing it after that, however. After I switched from 360-> PS4 I only had the one opportunity at import to change appearance.

It gave me a second chance the second time I went into Online, so thankfully I got my pretty boy back.

So my vehicles got deleted in the transfer even though I made sure to login to GTAO on my PS3 first.

I thought, no biggy I'll just get screenshots of them on my PS3 and they'll be restored. Nope, gone there too.

At least my helmet combo didn't get reset (old snap).




e: vvv Did it just now, I was trying to get the screenshots for the ticket.

So there's a loving bug that if you put on body armour, it gives you a pony tail.

But you can't go to the barber to change it back because the game thinks you still have the original haircut!

That said, if anyone is doing Blow Up 2 for RP in a tank, I'd love to tag along! I want to get to the fun stuff but I'm still only level 36. I managed to miss all the fun money/RP glitches in 2013 despite playing at the time.

Nuebot posted:

Yeah, it's so weird like that. The game frowns on random chaos, it'll shove you in open worlds with crew and friends when possible. But actually doing any kind of mission or job with friends and crews? A nightmare. Even when you finish something, half the time you wind up getting split up and tossed god knows where. The fact that you can't really control Job Invites doesn't help either. You think they'd have let you limit it to like, friends only or crew only so you don't have to deal with the constant beeping job spam.

The weirdest thing is when we're doing a private mission without a full team and once the mission is over, a random pubbie is the host.

I was watching from the map as I was trying to remember the way to suicide. Once you left most of the map was after them.

:siren::siren:Important Crew Information!!!

Due to the number of people wanting to be in LLJK I'm afraid that a rule is going to have to be set that you're required to set LLJK as your active crew to show that you want to have fun, otherwise you will be removed to make way for people who want to be doing fun things with lots of goons. The only exception to this rule is being in WEZL for its gimmick.

I'm sure this won't be the case for much longer as given a month or so the number of requests per day will drop, but for now this is something that needs to happen.

I'm not going to start kicking people immediately that are in different crews as I'm going to give everybody a bit of time to read this thread and catch up.


The time of judgement will come tomorrow at 12pm GMT

Make a holding crew so that people waiting for the main crew can at least crew up together, maybe?

Also what about people (like me) that switch between friend crews, other forum crews and LLJK?

I've not been playing nearly as much as I did, so, if you need to make room, feel free to remove me. FlamingDarkness. I mean, I'd love to join in with whatever events and craziness PS3 players might get up to, but between my recently aquired full-time job (no more cross-Atlantic all nighters), my PS3 starting to die of old age and abuse, and the sheer lack of PS3 players, I don't see that happening much.

My PS3 stopped wanting to read disks, and I can't afford to get it fixed right now, so it's an arduous pain in the balls just trying to get going in any game. It takes a few dozen attempts before it'll actually attempt to load the game, and if the console locks or restarts or some other dumb thing happens (GTA does dumb things with some regularity) then I'm back to playing disc tray roulette for another twenty minutes or more. I'm sure once I save up enough to get this thing fixed, or move onto proper gaming PC stuff, I'll be back with it. And even then, whenever I play again, I'll be happy to roll under Mountain Crew, represent WEZL News, or go back to my old PUGZ tag.

Yeah, there's not been any kicks from MTNC or WEZL so there might still be people hanging around on the old consoles.

Chalk it up to Rockstar not knowing how to program the game to keep track of who the aggressor is. (Or being bad at design choices? Who knows, they are the same people who decided that cash in hand was an important thing to put in the game.)

Mostly the second thing but really both. Also I think I just fixed the problem.

  • Player A kills Player B.
  • Once respawned, a ~5 minute grace period starts.
  • During the 5 minutes, Player B can retaliate against Player A with no bad sport/insurance fee.
  • If Player B kills player A in the 5 minute period, the grace period ends.
  • Player A cannot retaliate Player B's retaliation, and does not get a grace period.

Also, do custom races count towards the boost start colour unlocks?

Aurain posted:

Once you have a Buzzard and know the mission flow, farming Martin's "Extradition" mission is a pretty decent way to get some chunks of cash.

Going out of your way to destroy the fighter jets gives you something to do and adds a minute or two onto your mission timer, so you'll be getting around $16,000 per clear and you're pretty much always doing something instead of waiting around for time to pass to push your cash up.

I think doing Blow Up II with a tank nets you 19k after about 8-9 minutes/160 kills.

That's also a pretty sweet return too. I mean, of course, you can just afk and get good money on anything, but I think the bigger point is to have a good time while doing it.

Downside is you need a tank and be rank 70 I guess, though if there's any wallbreaches that's an option.
