RP and Money Not Saving - Take Advantage!

[mschmidt9026]

I don't know if anyone else has realized that the online servers are not saving progress at this point. When you log out into single player and then reload online, all changes in RP and money are lost. For most people this would be bad, however there is always good to come from something that sucks. I used this opportunity to buy every single airplane, boat, and military vehicle. Even though the servers are messed up and don't save money and RP, any vehicle you buy will be available after reloading. R* has some bullsh*t post saying it is only a delay, I'm not buying that. Also, know that cars and anything put on them are saved. Whenever you are low on your cash, simply reload single player and come back to find the amount you started with. Enjoy! And to any loser who wants to cry about glitchers: go take your tears elsewhere.

All the planes and choppers spawn for you so what's the point in buying?

Only advantage is really for the military vehicles. Who would ever want to buy a jeep for 250K? Another advantage is you can get them whenever you want instead of searching the map for them. Idk, really it is nothing more than a convenience.

yeah man that is bad advice and if you buy it or not that's just bad assumption because the progress will catch up eventually, anyone I know was affected that I know got their progress within a few hours back. So if you spend money it is gone. period

Yes but what if you spend money you don't have, this is what we will find out soon enough Servers haven't caught up in the last 24 hours so lets hope for better tomorrow

[Ethereal_NYC]

i have no idea what you guys are talkin about.

 

i played earlier today twice at two different times and everything saved

 

i made about 10Gs each play and leveled up once each as well from 32-34

 

everything saved.

 

when i get the message the cloud is not saving i just continued playing until it said save was available

 

the gap was usually five minutes

That may be true, but I just got $14 mil worth of vehicles and upgrades using only $3 mil. Not to mention my initial money used was obtained in various frowned upon methods. If it does catch up, I would be in the hole $10 mil. My guess is that the coding in the game will not allow for negative values. I will update tomorrow when these servers "catch up".

Buying planes and choppers are useful for missions. Because in missions aircrafts don't spawn

I just played for 3 hours and went from 34 to level 37. I bought an annihilator and then exited out to single player. When I reloaded, I was level 34, yet still could access the chopper from my phone. You are supposed to be level 37 to have it. This may be a case to case thing and at no point did I ever get a cloud unavailable message. Everything loads normal, it just won't save changes in my bank or RP.

It does seem delayed. It took about 24 hours for my socialclub to catch up to what happened in my last play session. Idk what this means for everything you bought but I doubt you will lose it. You will probably lose the money however. But yeah you got some real bang for your buck probably lol.

[Skatecboy45]

Do you quit through the playstation home button, or like quit through the game to single player and go back?

[the_D4u?]

I was doing this for a while, until it caught up just enough. Now im stuck with 2k and can't do anything. Be careful.

When it updates your cash is gonna be gone most probably

[novesori]

Yesterday I was playing normally an bought a MP and a Rifle. After reloading it was gone, idk about the money. So will Aircrafts and Cars surely be saved? Because Weapons should be save too, but they were gone...

[janimal]

My social club stats...

 

Total Earned $465,404

Total Spent $517,551

 

 

Saving is completely borked at the moment.

 

Yesterday I went from level 19 back to 17 & my money was all over the place.

 

This morning log in & my level is back to 19 but my cash has gone from 180k to 203k

 

Logged off earlier - at level 19 with 160k

 

and now I am level 17 with 128k

Erm... ejecting someone from your plane mid flight, thats why.

[janimal]

Also if I buy clothes they don't save, the money still seems to disappear, although it is hard to tell with my balance yo-yoing all over the place.

 

It's nice to hear the xbone is going to be fully integrated with the cloud allowing all developers to utilise the awesomeness of the cloud save.

Just to update the situation. I have logged in today to find that my RP has caught up to level 37 as it should have been. Even though I spent around $14 million on cars and upgrades using only $4 mil, I still have $2 mil in my bank. So it seems as if my rapid purchases and logging in and out caused the cloud to lose track of some transactions in the process.

 

****Note: Cloud servers seem to be running smooth. Do not attempt to buy things now. You will actually be charged.
