Did some resupply for my counterfeit (it does not give that much money and buying supplies decreases the profit even more, plus i did not resupply missions for a while).

So 3 missions gave me 1 bar supply each and i got one truck which filled up 2 bars. Somehow i still ended up with 3 garbage trucks. Before that, i bought supplies for it and got only 2 vehicles.

 

I managed to solo all 15 deliveries with 5 seconds left on the clock. Jeez, that was close. Never thought that was possible and i was expecting to get 12 or 13 deliveries at max.

Holy crap I just stole Vehicle Cargo by blocking the warehouse with my MOC, jacking the guy out of his car, and killing him with the Stone Hatchet and delivering the car!

I can't believe I pulled it off.

The game tells you you can jack the driver out of the vehicle cargo but I never thought it would be doable.

Cry.

I'm pretty sure I can decide for myself if I want to do something or not. I don't need you to tell me what I can't do. But, thank you, I appreciate the salty tears.

I guess the loss is acceptable, i would shrug this off, just a few minutes lost. I'd go on full panic mode and drive away if i see a MOC blocking the way.

 

Was that guy able to see you on the radar? Would be even more stupid then.

Haha I was ghosted ofc but I was running after him back and forth it was funny. I got in the passenger seat once but my guy decided not to kick him out. I got ran over once but eventually he decided to stop driving around and shoot me, that's when I dragged him out and killed him with the Stone Hatchet. After my guy ofcourse stabbed the air so he was able to get up. Luckily he didn't aim for the head and I had BST.

 

Yeah, you have to be pretty dumb to fall for that, lol.

Purchased an Akula last week as it was on sale and thought it would help me with crates, business battles etc. I was wrong. All I have been able to do since I got it is  hunt bounties, broomsticks and deluxos. I am now broke from insurance payouts and not doing anything for income. Sh*t it's fun though, especially hitting the low level players who spend the next few minutes turning in circles trying to figure out what the hell just happened 

 

On a side note: I find it hilariously cruel that the low levels always end up with the most bounties due to stealing npc cars all the time. I almost feel bad for killing them. Almost

Thanks, I appreciate that, but I didn't think it was that impressive, just had to rely on the stupidness of my target.

I had a better attempt earlier this week, where I didn't had to ran after him like crazy, but I accidently got in the car after dragging him out so when I got back out to kill him I got slapped in the face lol.

Yeah, I got 1-0'd pretty hard there.

Saw a guy in the race lobby the other day whose character was the absolute double of Jesse Plemons. It really was a great likeness.

[egomaniac247]

Unbelievable......

 

 

I'm in a lobby and I hear two guys talking.  One sounds like he's in his late teens, another maybe 30's.  The teen is level 63, the older guy level 29.  They say they are gonna do Landing Strip.  I'm thinking I haven't done that in a long time I'll join them.  So I joined them, caught a ride with them up to Paleto Bay and jumped out of their Nightshade when they got there....got on my MK2 Oppressor.   They marvel at how cool it is and how they're gonna get one, blah blah......I jumped on it to let them get the plane so I could clear the landing strip on the way back.

 

At this point I realize that the Luxor they're in is so much faster than than Oppressor bike.......and they're gonna get there too soon.  I didn't even get to lake shore before I heard the guy say "I suck at landing but I can do this".

 

I started to stop my bike and text them and say "WAIT DON"T LAND THE PLANE LET ME CLEAR THE RUNWAY" but nope, you know what happened next...

GUY 1:  "Yeah smooth landing.....oh my god look at all those guys at the end of the runwa.....BOOOM  "OH MY GOD!"

GUY 2:  RPG!?  They had a RPG?!?

GUY 1:  NO IT WAS THE GUY ON THE BIKE (me), HE'S A f*ckING ASSHOLE

 

So not only were they too stupid to read the WARNING TEXT that the game sends about the runway being "hot" , then they blamed me for blowing up our own plane b/c they were oblivious that they landed right into an "ambush" which they were warned about.

 

FFS.  I backed out and quit.  I'm sure to this hour they still think I did it.  My only hope is that they hit restart and it happened again to them.

That isn’t griefing what he described, that is pretty legit (and funny) gameplay. I’ve done that a few times, block the garage with a vehicle, then hide round the corner off radar. When they get out to move the offending vehicle, jump in their car and drive off. It’s hilarious.

I do that to my friends all the time. Or I'll park a car right in front of the door of a building so they can't get out, then run away in their car. Fun times.

 

Tonight was mildly nerve-wracking.  Trying to source cars to refill my warehouse. End up with the photoshoot mission all the way out in the damned desert. Great. Haul ass out there, shoot bad guys, pick up car and head back. Of course you know they come after you, and as I'm hitting the paved road I see a jet fly overhead. "Oh crap." Then I hear explosions behind me. "OH CRAP!" Dropped the f*cking hammer and drove like a man possessed, convinced that some jackass was coming after me (and was just a really poor shot) It wasn't until I was nearly to my warehouse that I realized that jet icon had a blue circle around it--it was someone on my friend list. Don't know who, unfortunately.

 

So if that was you in the jet blowing up enemy choppers so I could get back safely, thank you for that.

 

Also some dude blew up my Speedo Custom. No biggie though. (It was an ally crewmember. He apologized. We're cool.) I was just using it to get back to my nightclub. There wasn't anything in it. I guess if you make something that ugly, people are just going to blow it up on principle.

Well, today I tried out the Lampadati Pigalle. That's a 400k tryout, btw. I thought it would be like the silver car that Tony drives to escape the Malibu Club in Scarface, as I found some similarities to that Maserati Merak, choosing the Pigalle over the Lampadati Visersis. Well, after dying it at Los Santos Customs, it was not fun to drive around which was a bummer.

 

So, I sold it for almost 300k (gave it some upgrades), so not too bad of a money loss. I'm going to try out the Viseris next, but it's 850k I think. At the time, I was left with 200k after missing my chance to buy the double cash 1.25m shark card special. Oh, well. So, I got an invite to do the Prison Break heist with three randoms. First, the pilot died, then someone died while trying to board the getaway plane, then we go all the way to the end, before the chopper pilot decided to veer onto my screen and slice me into a hundred pieces with his blades.

 

I thought people would bail at that point, as this mission takes a while, but they all rejoined and we finally did it. The pilot scared me with some dodgy flying close to the hills and power line towers, but we made it!

 

A trophy for me, a nice cherry-popping heist completion bonus, and $125k more. So now I have 500k. Other than a random griefer blowing up my car, it was a good playing time.

 

Side note, is the cheetah classic like the one in GTA III? Is it worth buying the Comet SR or whatever instead of the base Comet? The Comet was my first car on GTA Online, eventually sold it much later on, but was thinking about buying it again. And who else hates the "one death only" heist setting? What was R* thinking? I heard that other heists have checkpoints except for Prison Break.

The Cheetah Classic is very much like the one in Vice City, and it's a peach to drive. Fast, handles well, looks good. I own one and strongly recommend it.

And if you want to try a car before you buy it, go into the Creator and set up a custom race. For the "Available Vehicles" select all, and make the car you want to drive the default vehicle. Then test your track. Doing this, you can test out almost any car in the game you want (except for weaponized vehicles like the Weaponized Tampa, APC, etc, anything that comes standard with weaponry)

[hugh750]

this is a very short story, the other night i was doing night club work and i needed to do publicity work for my night club.

i drive my revolter to lsia to use the blimp.

i flew the blimp to the first spot to advertise my club (it went without incident), then i flew to the 2nd spot but a flellow player in my lobby landed his helicopter on the blimp while i was advertising my club and when i finished i caused his helicopter hit and kill him.

Whoops!

They didn't get out though, I dragged them out

Got killed repeatedly, duh.

I found a new way to use passive mode to amuse myself in public free roam... apparently, if you can land before the air defenses on a yacht are turned on by the owner, even a giant plane like the Bombushka can safely stay perched on the yacht in question:

I have got so exasperated and fed up with the dirty racers in this game who shunt, ram, block and every other trolling trick, that I decided to have a kind of dirty protest yesterday. That doesn't mean I dropped my keks and sh*t all over my own room, but I just took the heavy Nero Custom into every race and proceeded to ram Vagners, X-80s and everything else at every opportunity, win or lose.

 

I didn't win any, but it was cathartic for a while. 

[PetrolCB]

I had somebody parachute into my VIP Room tonight. I had just entered the lobby and noticed a whimpering Lazlow laying on the couch. As I ran over to him, out of the corner of my eye, I see somebody landing next to me. 

 

I pointed at them and they did in return. So they possibly could’ve done something attack-wise. Maybe, maybe not. By the time I went to take a screenshot, they disappeared. However, their parachute bag remained. It was a bit odd for sure.

This is why you launch Headhunter or Fully Loaded when it's time to go hunting.     on HH you can even do three of the four in a couple minutes, spend 10 minutes murdering, and still get the 20k.

 

 

[KazzMajol]

this one should perhaps be in the 'are you a boy or a girl?' thread because the payout probably wouldn't have come if i wasn't playing the hot blue-eyed blonde, but whatever.

 

a couple nights ago i was in freeroam for a bit, checking the techs at the NC, stocking up on supplies in the bunker in prep for another overnight afk, and as i was about to head for Tinsel Towers and the TV set i got an invite from somebody for Armwrestling, which i haven't done in quite a long time, but i did find a pretty good technique for winning at, and i was bored, so i tried to join.    the other player quit by the time i got in the lobby, but i was somehow fired up to do it and sent out my own invite.   

 

i was quickly joined by a level 300-something, and although i won the match 5 to 1, the last three were pretty heavy-duty back and forth contests where one of us would be about to lose and then it would go the other way and back...   my damn hand was pretty tired by the end, for real.    anyway, after we both hit continue we spawned into a lobby together, and he didn't decide to blast me. 

 

again, is it the hot blonde?   you decide.   

 

anyway, he summoned a super car and i got in the passenger seat.    he started an MC and i joined.    he teleported away, and i drove the Reaper around until i got an invite for the Bogdan Problem finale with the Avenger and the submarine, and with just the two of us, i drew the pilot gig.      BIG THANKS to this player, because he gave me 85% of the cut, which was a solid GTA$1million, for flyswatting some buzzards and successfully making a landing at LSIA.     pretty sweet.   we got separated on the respawn but i sent a friend request and an IM saying thanks.

If there's one thing I've learned in nearly 20 years of online gaming, it's that anyone with unnecessary underscores or Xs in their handle is probably going to be trouble. That bore out once again the other night, as an individual who fit the description was in the same server as me.  I was trying out my new Terrorbyte to run cars. I managed to get one successful source and sell, and just after I sold the car, I'm accosted by a guy with a bunch of extra Xs in his name (I still refuse to name and shame, but this time it's because I don't remember his full handle and I'm not going to guess for fear of misidentification). Anyway, Mr. Twitwagon rolls up on a MkII Oppressor (another sure sign of D-baggery) and starts taking shots at me. So I shot back and plugged him right off his literal high horse. You know if he'd have just left me alone I wouldn't have bothered him. As I've said many times before, I'm a generally peaceful player. I leave people alone unless they engage me first. Which he did. So I shot him.

I'm pretty sure I've also mentioned my inability to finish a fight once I've started it. I SUCK at PvP combat, So the predictable thing happened. I got my ass kicked, in a fight I didn't even want to have in the first place. I was eventually able to get somewhere safe, and after a couple minutes of hiding like the god damn coward that I am he went off to bother someone else.  This was a bad decision on his part. Several fellow members of my crew were in-session at the time.  He started going after THEM next. Now most people wouldn't be dumb enough to antagonize several people in the same crew at the same time, especially when you're alone.  Not this guy. He started going after the rest of my crew, including a good personal friend of mine. You're gonna go after me? Fine. Whatever.  You're gonna go after my friends? I don't freaking think so. So I jumped into my Faction (it was handy) and headed to my nightclub to pick up some heavier artillery (and to grab the cash out of the safe. Might as well kill two birds with one stone, yeah?). Got blown up AGAIN on my way to the club by some other twit with an Oppressor, picked up my Nightshark and, now suitably armored, headed back towards Mr. XXXXXXXXXXXXwhatever his name was. Meanwhile the kill feed is just his name over and over again, interspersed with my crewmembers. This has gone from a skirmish to an all-out war, and I'm starting to feel a tad underdressed. I headed up there anyway to back up my friends (or at least give them some protection) and then he and a bunch of others went off-radar..and I lost them. And then my connection dropped.

 

So basically this is a story of failure on multiple levels. I swear if it wasn't for bad luck I wouldn't have no luck at all.

I literally just delivered a Business battle bag at the VERY last second 

I thought I wasn't gonna make it but I was able to ditch the Buzzard and parachute right into the goal right as it was ticking down. Thank god it didn't do that "I'm not gonna let you enter" sh*t it sometimes pulls for a few seconds
