What is the best way to level up/get money in this game? I've been doing crappy drug missions that get you $1000 confused

Phone Gerald for missions. Some pay quite well. Steal that Range Rover, keep it tip top' or repair it and you get $9K a pop.

Carry on with the missions/leveling up, better missions come up as you level up ( I just reached 10 last night and got a call from Lester saying he had work for me)

For money you can trade in the range rover or jaguar looking cars for $9000 every in game 24 hours (48 mins).

Quickest way to level up is to do 1 lap races on criminal records in sports cars. if you do it by yourself you get RP but no money if you do 1v1 you will get $2000 for winning and $1000 for losing. The race takes 30 seconds and you can just keep replaying it. Its boring though. Also quickest way to get the unlocks for the car mods.

I still want to be able to create a play list of coop missions where we can all work together to make money instead of pratting about losing money.

I hate getting a group together to do a job and then having to disband it because we dont want to do pvp next

First few days of online I had no problems except losing money to glitches.

Now I can the timed out message when ever I try do a race, free mode works fine unless I try join a clan lobby.

yes but $9k is the most you will get others will get you $2k and you can only do one car every 48 mins, so you want to maximize the money per car

Sorry not all cars... some are 'too hot' to sell so no banshees or the like, the highest is the range rover and jaguar type(Felon GT)

To Scarble and Slow etc, last nights free roaming was excellent fun. Wing walking on the cargo bob was a bit of a highlight. I had ground my ways up to $60k that afternoon and left last night with $13k but really don't care. Helicopter jousting is just worth it. Popping on now to see if anyone is about. I need to make back some cash!

Trying to save up to buy a feltzer now (got 40k) since i bought the apartment(the one with skate park in the description) and have room to store more motors. 1 thing i found though is that it will only let me put 4 cars in and not 6??

If i get on later then i will be up for some races/ coop missions etc.



Also, bank heists are not an online feature at all/ever? Was hoping it would be (i.e 2 teams pitting it out)

rofl PS3 lot couldn't organise a piss-up in a brewery beer
oh do f**k off, who had the good sense to split the groups and remove all the randomers?
it was a ps3er who started the crew in the first place, only for you boxers to start about 5.
if it were up to you lot we'd have about 30 crews all a mix of box and station and full of 12 year old Americans and angry German kids.

No, but the convoy looks quite impressive.... im sure we can do better!
Scarble, how many were in your convoy?
I think there was only 8 or 9 of us, would have had 1 more but slow_x was in a car (and kept getting in the way, until he blew us all up).
Also rather than an actual convoy we were pretty much flat out right from Sandy Shores to the beach in LS (where Slow_x did his thing rolleyes).

I can't even load my game now. Neither story mode or on line works. I'm just stuck on the opening pictures and music.
