Found a great new sport to do.......R* haters baiting.

Just go onto R* support forum and post a positive comment and question and watch the haters go mental at you, these people really need to grasp the concept it's a game, not the end of the world, you know most are yanks as they keep going on about taking R* to the federal courts.

It's been pretty funny reading those support pages and the GTA forum today, some of them are apoplectic! This will all be forgotten when the heists are launched.

Just play the game how it was intended, it's been out 3 weeks and everyone expects to be able to afford the best cars, fully modded, the best houses and tanks.

Whats the point? The idea of any game is to build up and gain by experience.

It took me a year + in Forza to attain 150,000,000 cr, it took me nearly a year to get highest prestige in BoPs 2, its all about enjoying the game.

I don't play it long enough to spunk $2mil on a plane
I do play it normally anyway its just taking the piss - they've also reduced payouts by 50% on the higher paying missions

The first time you play a mission it'll be the normal 100% payout and 50% each time you replay the mission after that. According to R* it's been done in preparation for the coming DLC which I'm presuming will launch soon.

Hmm, the game's frozen three times on me this morning.

You can oipen the back of the Titan? can you get a car or bike in there?

I've seen one in multiplayer with the back ramp lowered but haven't worked it out myself so far.

I don't think there's a button to press that opens it, from what I've seen you have to punch the ramp in a certain place and drive the Titan forward for it to open.

Had a good few games with some
Phers in the fighter jet vs motorbike online mission, couldn't fly the plane well at all!

Did that a few times with PHers a few nights back, I failed to achieve anything in the jet.

Would that be the evening where two crashed on the runway before taking off and me and the other remaining jet had a mid air collision?

I'm so fed up with the randoms online. I was just trying to increase my driving stats by driving the wrong way up the motorway, stopped at a LSC to get the car fixed and someone kicked me. Because I was in LSC the game thought I'd left a mission so warned me about being a bad sport.

I went back in to get the car and the culprit killed me leaving LSC and trashed my car without actually destroying it so I couldn't claim for it.

Doing things like that, it's best to just enter an invite only session and have the map to yourself, no dramas!

Sorry for the noob question

But how do I go about creating that?

When you fire up GTA, rather than pressing A to launch Online at the loading screen wait until the story mode loads then go; pause, Online tab, Play GTA online, then Invite only session.

This might not work but could you fill all 10 spaces then drive the unwanted Elegy out and drive another random car in to take it's place?

Yeah nice idea, but this doesn't work as the car always takes up a slot in your garage no matter where it is, impounded, destroyed or just laying around somewhere.

Ah bugger, this is why I'm hoping they allow us to have more garage space in a future update, 10 cars isn't enough for a hoarder like me!

Has anyone else not received their $500k yet?

Don't think anyone has yet, the first installment of $250k was going to arrive last week, now it might turn up this week but who knows!

Man there are some proper wkers around. Just plowing people over and banking themselves infront of Los santos customs and gunning down people who come near. This is why I detest online play sometimes.

Yeah, public free roam just isn't worth bothering with if you want to go to LSC, once I've got my sniper rifle I might have to start camping to take out the campers...

sparks_E39 said:

When are we getting our $500k then? Meant to be last week!

The latest is this week at some point, there will also be an update to the game at the same time so when that's released we should get the cash!

[Gun]

Or we could just drop it, reading this nonsense is getting tedious.

Martin_Hx said:

Anyway....


When do we get this bloody DLC and Money, they said this week... this week is almost over, bloody nuggets !!

And i want more garage space to help with my shiny magpie needs

Yes to all of that, especially the garage space. I really hope they let us own an apartment and a garage in a future update, surely it wouldn't be that hard to implement?

[Gun]

Good news, best get saving for one of those houses!

EvoDelta said:

No fear for me getting a 4 million house... I still only have around 40k. Making progress is proving very difficult.

Easiest way to make cash is to do races, you earn a lot of RP and money either on a PH race night or just in random lobbies.

I'll try and get on one evening.

Most the time I just find myself messing around, and trying to do stupid things. Some direction will be useful.

Another good way of earning is; once you've earnt some cash buy a garage and buy one of the quick motorbikes then race and upgrade it. Once you've got a few mods on it you should be able to win a fair few bike races with it, I won loads of races in my Akuma today and you get $10-13k per win on Downtown Underground.

20 space garages sound good, i thought 10 would be plenty but already running out of space and can't decide what to get rid of. Also pretty annoying you're stuck with the Elegy as well if you choose to get it for free, so basically only 9 spaces available.

Wouldn't mind some customization for garage and house too, maybe in a later update/DLC.

You can get rid of the Elegy, just fill your garage and drive up with an 11th, then choose to remove the Elegy.

[Gun]

This might be bullst but some on the GTA forums are saying they've been given the stimulus cash and in one $500k lump too!
