As its going to be hard enough doing deliveries while avoiding random tts, it would be nice if it ends up being a rarity of only crew in a public lobby that people would be left to do their deliveries. I'd be really fked off if someone from the crew destroyed it!
Yeah, imagine... Bob, Cheshire - you're on the list smash
You worry far to much DJ!
Challenger (might not have been him but we'll blame him anyway) suggested the disruption and Crafty/Jobbo were only after the red create things (I think...) that are scattered around the map.

I manage this by having a nearly teenage daughter with a mobile phone and tablet connected to the wifi and a wife downloading the latest American trash tv on Sky.
I quite often end up in a lobby on my own!

I've heard about the strict nat thing before as well. I know it can affect a lot of online games, I could never connect to a game in Mario Kart on DS with strict nat settings.

I often end up in a solo public session too, but i wanted to control it, or at least find the quickest way of achieving it intentionally.

Ive done a little research online regarding the public sessions.

Ideally what i want to achieve is what we had last night: a 'Public' session filled with (mostly) friendly crew members, this gives us a good opportunity to team up and run the CEO cargo missions/VIP missions.

To get into a public session by your self you need to throttle your internet connection. Public lobbies that are heavily populated require a larger exchange of data, there is all the voice chat, character movements, AI in relation to the characters (police etc) and people leaving and joining.

If your connection is throttled then you will be put onto a 'quieter' server i.e. a public lobby by yourself. switching your router off wont work, this disconnects you completely. what you want to do is limit your connection enough so that you are still connected but the connection speed is low.

When GTA first came out there were connection issues related to NAT type and everyone went about setting this to open. Apparently setting this to 'strict' will throttle the connection and give you the result of a solo public lobby. - This info has come from 'Masterage' on Reddit and I don't know how reliable this info is.

I wont get a chance to test this until the weekend, but I'll spend some time seeing what i can do to achieve getting into a public lobby on my own.

I welcome peoples thoughts on this.
In which case i think i could always get a solo lobby as my internet is so st.

The red crate things scattered around the map cost me money!

I've been buying as many crates as I can while WFHing today. Apparently when you get to 10 successful collections then you get a high value one. Do the organisation members get a cut when delivering? I'll need some help to deliver them later.

Hope there's a new hyper car class for the Prototipo!

Do they?!
Sorry, I thought they were a generic lobby thing from the new update paperbag

I'd be up for helping deliver/testing if organisation members get a cut (I don't think so, they might get a bonus payment though...)

I've now almost filled my warehouse - it demands that I have at least two other people to do the most lucrative sale mission. Hmmm, better take care with it I guess!

Some things I like:
- being able to get into your office by flying over it and pressing right on the D-pad
- being able to call your assistant to get a car out of the impound for $1000 (about time!)

I got into a small public session with a guy I know from heisting last night and sold my first full warehouse which made $240k. It's a decent amount of money to make, maybe not as much as I'd make heisting for that amount of time but I can do this alone.

I'm going to try and just fill a warehouse with one thing to see how much of a difference there is.

Stupid question, but are you able to choose what you fill your warehouses with? And how? I bought my first warehouse yesterday and spent last night filling it with whatever they gave me to fill it with...

What I'm going to do is buy another small warehouse and choose something specific to put in it i.e. only put in guns or something. I'll keep filling the other warehouse with whatever to keep the money coming in but whenever I get offered the specific thing I'll stick it in the other one and see how much of a difference there is when it comes time to sell.

I think my next arbitrary game goal will be to have a full set of large warehouses all filled with a single item, then sell the lot smile.

I'll give you a hand if you still need one later on but I sold my warehouse on my own last night and it was no hassle. Took about fifteen minutes as I had to fly back to the airport to change planes but otherwise plane sailing.

Still need to sort out more cash for warehouses etc.

Once you have an office you can run VIP missions without an end to being a VIP. I ran a couple just to get me over the price of the cheapest warehouse then sold a car so I could start filling it. You can always add to your office later when you have money to burn
