Closer? What happened to 'closer' when you blew us all up in the Vinewood tour bus trying to kill someone that wasn't even on it! :cheeky:

You're welcome. Seemed due.


I think heists will end up being the best thing ever or the thing that drives a lot of people away in frustration, no middle ground. I hope they are great but don't have my expectations set too high.

All this stupid license plate talk made me finally decide I should try and make mine work. It was still the same one from PS3, so I put a ticket in to reset it, went and tried it once more, and voila it works! I'm pleased.. especially since I can't change my PSN name now.. dicks.

I think I may do something similar tonight. Put myself into passive and just creep a mic breather. Follow them around in passive, never getting too close, just enough to unnerved them. When they clue in, run off, pop into invisible until they give up, then repeat the cycle.

Unless we get a geeves playlist on the go. Then that trumps.

I want to play with the physics of some vehicles we don't always have access to in multiplayer.
Last night during a quick Titan... job we dicked around with the Dock Handler, the cargo box crane. It got me to thinking what stupid stuff it could be used for, and what other vehicles are untapped potential for stupid fun...

Heists tomorrow. Book it.

That's right, I'll be that guy who claims, later on, that I had insider info thanks to my good buddies at Rockstar.

Or you know, nothing will happen like we're all really expecting and I'll just be another person who is wrong on the internet.

Besides, I would really expect some publicity push from Rockstar over social media as a buildup for the heist release date, when it's decided upon.

I think personally, the most goons I've probably seen in a single lobby is around fifteen. Which can still be a busload of fun. Even with the crew thread always adding new members, it seems we can never seem to get our poo poo together at the same time.

More people need to experience a geeves playlist and Horse Factory.

Inside the mine, when (I believe) a pubbie ordered an airstrike on us.


Later on, this idea came about again.

We decided to drop into the base. It went about as well as expected.

Glad to finally see a date confirmed, but like has been mentioned, it'll probably be a cluster gently caress the first couple of weeks. Rockstar's servers poo poo themselves on a good day, the added stress is going to be a bitch.
Plus, like geeves mentioned, the lizards will probably strike.

I'm glad I've got a decent list of goon friends to attempt heists with, seems like it could be really fun, but with a pubbie squad I would likely toss my PS4 through a window before the heist even started.

NICE


So, basically, we figured out a way to glitch the Dock Handler into free roam.
It is pretty simple. Completing "A Titan Of A Job" is the key. If someone is in the Dock Handler (that spawns in the Titan hangar), and stays in it when the Titan is delivered, they will spawn in free roam with the Dock Handler. The drat thing is so tall, though, that it needs a cargobob to airlift it outta the airport area where you spawn...
We managed to glitch it in 3 times, so it seems fairly reliable.
A few pics.





Driving it off the Maze Bank ended badly, I got the drat thing stuck.



Edit#2: Countdown til Reddit claims it's a glitch "they" found in 5...4...3...

Also, you need to attend driving school to earn a license. Without one your garage becomes inaccessible, and your vehicles will become ineligible for insurance coverage from Mors.
And after each time you call Mors to replace your vehicle , your premium goes up.
