So it's kind of lame that you can't steal personal vehicles. I mean, we have that insurance thing. If I'm going around murdering people like a jackass, I should be able to take their cars too. Instead all I can do is blow them up. Then the game tells me I'm being a meanie and fines me for it. Yet there's no real punishment for murdering a guy over and over, literally taking all of his money.

You're not really taking much of anything. You drop like $500 when you die, assuming you are carrying a bunch of cash. If you don't have any cash on hand you don't lose anything (and you also don't pay insurance premiums)

That's odd. Because the other day every time I died I'd lose 1k from my bank account.

Holy Christ I've been killed by 4/5 goons I've come across today. Does no one know what a crew member looks like on the map of is it just pure bloodlust.

Some people in the goon crew are great, a few are pretty bad about this. I generally don't kill others in the crew, but every so often there's someone who's just a jackass I guess who teamkills constantly.

EDIT:

Obviously, I have no idea if this is true or not, but doing this in a solo session may not get you added to the cheater pool since solo sessions might be considered single player.
It'd be hard to test then since apparently solo race wins don't count.

I've been trying to get LLJK members invited to heists but it looks like the game isn't even trying, the "your crew" option where you can invite specific members lists maybe 5-10 people at any time, and the only way to get anyone at all to join is by doing auto-invite with open matchmaking which usually gets me a lot of level <12 people who are not only unfamiliar with the heists and the game in general, they lack everything that helps you survive GTA aimbot NPCs better (ie. reserve body armor, snacks, skills to actually hit things you're shooting and sprint longer than five seconds), so they're the first to die. Forget hard mode, these guys usually die a 2nd time before you're halfway through a heist or setup. That's on top of hilarious failures like people committing suicide by parachute, suicide by jumping off buildings or suicide by crashing aircraft.

I managed to beat the prison break heist once and I wasn't even hosting so I'm still stuck there, which is getting really annoying. On the other hand I'm pretty good at flying that damned plane now...

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.

They should make a new addon that includes at least like one "Big Garage" or something that lets you store a small number of big vehicles. Like trucks or busses. Also an armored death bus would be the best thing ever.

Single Player lets you use hangars for this, so I presume if they ever add it to GTA Online it'll use those.

Oh okay I never really played single player much. Why can't we have hangars in online? It can't be a balance issue because anyone with millions can just rent a ton of planes and helicopters and tanks anyway. Letting us own one and paint it pink won't destroy the game.

At least they weren't just doing it to be spiteful I guess. I think I'm done trying to help someone complete all the stages though, it's like pulling teeth. I'll just wait until I get lucky and grab the finale.

EDIT: It just seemed unexpected because it had been the same four people for every part of the set up and we did it all pretty easily. I'm guessing they had friends they wanted to get through it or crew.

The thing we found (through many trials of this) is that you have to take your bikes out of the city before the guy in the garage leaves with the Karuma. Otherwise it won't let you. Just go up near that farm on the highway and you'll be fine.


You don't want to try to explode an Insurgent, since the insurance cost is ~17 grand and any explosives to the car are unlikely to kill the driver before you explode the thing. SMGs to the face are your best bet barring a sniper shot.

Honestly, I don't really understand why they put the insurgent in the free roam at all. It's cool for missions and all. But then you get dicks in borderline indestructable cars just being assholes non-stop. Not even funny assholes, just jerks. If you do blow up the car rockstar tells you that you're playing mean and fines you for trying to avoid being run down for the nth time. Just the other day we had someone doing just that, and when we finally popped their insurgent they went passive and just ran away to hide so no one could kill them.

Contact missions are great cash. Easy, short ones are worth like 5k on average while longer or slightly more difficult ones are at least 10k and don't take all that much longer. If you, or at least one other person in the misison, has a kuruma its easy going. I earned like 200k in an hour last night just farming contact missions.

I know, right? If I'm just murdering dudes in the city or something every few minutes I get a call from an NPC that basically amounts to "Hey! I still exist!" I mean I get it for the story mode.
