I was there also great fun been doing a few races with ph's some nice close races.

We had some good races earlier (especially the first few super car races, very close!). Didn't mean to pick that boat race at the end, did it by accident

Have the XBOX servers gone down or is it just me?

Edit, reset and we're good to go

to save money from death can you not chuck money into a safe stock during match to save loosing when dead?

Nap, says Bawsaq is unavailable online, only in single player. Don't know if that will change at any point though.

they're just super rare now
they appear occasionally. Was a few days into SP before I saw one, grab the first I saw and took it straight to my lock up.
beast of a car!

Is it just me or is it fking pointless even trying tonight? Getting kicked from every free session I join...

[Dift]

Just be glad you can get on. My game freezes if I try and play online.

[Johna]

A few good races earlier until the PH crew turned on one another and everyone was getting gunned/ran down every few minutes.

I think it's more of a bug than really being kicked...

From the day when I could go in free roam, I've a least been 'kicked' in free roam for once every hour.

I can get kicked from coming back on a mission, staying in my apartment, driving along with other PHers...anything really, I can be doing anything and I'll get kicked.

I searched for answers, but never got any, so I just put it down to cr@p connections on my end.

Sometimes, I can tell if my game is about to crash too, every hour or so being online, if loading a mission it'll crash around the hour mark...I really really want to know why...because it's doing my head in!

Few things found out earlier:

Repeating the same short race with a full session over and over earns you a fair bit of money and RP.

Medical bills drain the fun out of the game.

The cargobob is an endless source of fun. (Cars become wrecking balls and picking other players up makes me giggle)

Freeroam is pointless for anything other than messing about and usually loses you far more money than anything.

[SaipH2]

is anyone grinding solo races? I'm doing them to get RP but could do with alternating wins with someone

psn is SaipH-

[scarble]

I just got net-split on survival wave 5. Just me on my own, surrounded by hillbillies with AKs.

Once you have a flat what do you need money for except ammo? Not that expensive.

I've had lag and kicked from lobby problems all night, which is new for me.

I'll give it a break for a while.

[Dift]

Is that on the ps3?

I've not been able to get online for 3 days, I always get a timed out locating session error.

I'm on XBOX.

With apologies to Pickup King, I still can't buy armor, and rushing at the reds, was probably a bad tactic in hindsight...

[Jimmy No Hands]

WHY does it boot me to a seperate free roam when me and a mate leave a mission? So annoying.

Vote to return to freeroam appears, at least so far to return those voting back to the same session if possible.

Even if we all vote it, it sends me to a different free roam altogether.

just rage quit a deathmatch, most enfuriating thing ever.

its called something rooftop, if you ever come across it dont play it. it spawns 1 team at the top of the roof and the other team at the bottom, so you constantly get spawn killed and cant get near the enemy, dont know who designed that match but it is the worse ive ever came across
