The car that looks like the SLS/SLR works for picking hookers up.... I erm.... know someone who tried the glitch earlier and it worked.... although 8 or so glitched cars sold later that erm.....someone I know.... has 3 SLS/SLR stuck in their garage because Los Santos now say they can't sell cars for more than £50k... Damn it!!

Really enjoyed the bus rally stage last night, have been hunting for a good PCV friendly dirt track today!

To be honest I have gone off the online element of this game now, with no millions to waste its a little lacklustre without obscene gunfights, I mostly join the contact missions in hope of some new ones I haven't really played.

Oh and sorry to the poor bds who helped my greyhound back on its wheels, only for it to topple one minute later biggrin

The Entity does not work for the glitch, nor does the Jester. The Adder, Massacro and Zentorno do, though. The former bringing me to 12 million and 18 duped Adders in my second character's garages still. hehe

I'm sure that they will remove the dosh eventually unfortunately. I've got myself an extra 3 million. Its just not a good economy system in the game. It takes too long to get anywhere near enough money to be able to do the fun stuff.

I've only got about 200k in the bank at the moment, usually its around 3million, but I've not bothered to replace all all the stuff I bought at the last update.
Its tempting to do the glitches, but I'm going to resist because they probably will do a sweep again

Like DJDest I haven't spent lots of time replacing the money I spent after the last update, but I've still got a few million in the bank (hey, I've done a lot of grinding!)

I haven't even been online while people have been doing this glitch. If there's a money sweep and I lose *anything* I shall be most annoyed because it took a lot of playing time to make my cash.

Apart from when I was given 110 million near xmas when the big money thing happened, everything I've earnt has all be worked for apart from my black Dubsta 2 which someone brought in from single player for me.

It certainly does seem harder to build up some cash these days! I've decided from now on, apart from the odd respray here or there I'm just going to save now until the PS4 version is released.
No doubt there will be plenty of new things to buy at that time, so want to get a decent balance ready!

are the psn accounts interchangeable? so the money and characters you have on the ps3 version will transfer to the PS4 version?

I got $99m around Christmas, which was then taken away in the money reset, so I have been good since.

Having said that, I did play Field of Screams v3 quite a bit.

For those of you worried about money sweeps or bad sport stuff, the truth of the matter is if you're picked up wrongly, a politely worded letter to Rockstar often produces very good results. People have claimed their support is lousy but they tend to be the ones saying 'fuk u r* u took away all my munny give it back or else'. On the reddit, there's lots of stories of people who were even put out of the bad sport lobby for a well written apology, though they're on probation. I think they will do a sweep of the money - but of course the problem is all the chrome Adders will full upgrades in their garages. It's difficult to say what they'll do, but the best advice for everyone is keep calm and be polite.

They didn't do us in for Field of Screams, so it's likely that they'll only really punish people who made x amount of money. Especially since it's very time dependent and not quite as much of a money farm.

In other news, I'm speaking to you from the middle of the Baltic Sea, but I've been contacted by a few people on the reddit GTA Online crews who want a British petrolhead to help them set up some GTA Online challenges like the old '£1000 car' ones. Here's one of mine as a google doc they're planning on doing next weekend - could I get some feedback? And any ideas for other ones?

Jim, Bert, Mcanoy, Sunray and myself had a good laugh last light initially fighting of about 6 glitchers down by the marina, but that was ruined at the end of the night by two chavs!

There's seems to be more people taking great satisfaction hiding under the roads all session killing people. It must get boring!

Daryl and Sakari Driver, I've not had the game glitch like that for ages. First failing the mission for no reason, then dropping us all out (I assume you were separated too). Most annoying.

I carried on without you too - it was Rockstar's server rather than me leaving laugh It was a little disconcerting to drive all the way to the oilfield place and park up because only then did your characters get out of my car and run off.

Fortunately my Buzzard from the previous attempt was still there and sufficiently undamaged for me to complete the mission easily. That was the reason I didn't call another buzzard; it hadn't de-spawned from the failed attempt...

God I've missed this, still another week sunning myself and eating too much in France!

Regarding the glitching, I think it's quite easy to tell who it is buy car sales vs time scale!

I was on last night but struggled to find anyone, Spent the time doing Rooftop rumble but everyone including me seemed to be a bit rubbish and we failed more times than we did it. It's a pain the way it does random start positions now. Sometimes we were across the road from the car park but on the worst we were right in the countryside at the other end of the map!
