Things you didn't know about GTAO until now

[Sagrawa]

Hadn't realized yet how much xp you actually get from the CEO proximity bonus.

I made a new char yesterday and sat her next to the CEO, watching tv, before I went to bed. In eight hours time she went from lvl 4 to lvl 22.

^ I was delivering a stolen car to a police station just as a biker gang started some work there, it was.. chaotic. No f*cking clue what was going on, people walking into locked doors, same deal.

[AUScowboy]

Exactly how hilarious the document forgery business is. Gonna be making bank now that Trump is Pres..

That the contact mission Teaser Trailer may have been a reference to the Railgun on LG. The trailer contained an electromagnetic weapon (possibly the Railgun) and the mission being a "Teaser" for it for when it would eventually come along with CG. Well that's what I think anyway

[KreatiivFox]

There's a Deadline adversary mode soundtrack called "Gaylord", lmao.

[wizooord]

All the red boats at the boat dealership near simeon are called Rufus ._.

you can get top-range more often if you stocked all standard and medium ranges

though there is a time i got 2 different cheetahs ( both were medium range ) by resourcing

 

you can equip necklaces and earring at same time , but only with new DLC earrings ( tested on valentine bustier and biker jacket )

The badge on the front of the Cheetah lights up (had one for 3 years, noticed this yesterday for the first time)

I always wonder where this rumor started, I've had a full warehouse with mostly (as in 4-5 top range at most) standard and medium range cars and it made no difference on what range I got when sourcing.

I run solo so maybe that makes a difference?

But every time I sell a high end then do a collection it's another high end.

So I sell a high end - collect a high end - sell a high end etc

 

Haven't got a full warehouse either.

Probably you had a duplicate there, thus ruining the tip to get always top cars to source.

 

The key is to have 10 different standard and 10 different mid cars. You can have some top too, as long as they are less than 12 in your warehouse.

 

I have only the 10-10 stored and it works fine.

[Gridl0k]

Duplicate = same car, different plate btw

[Sky_Light12]

Duplicate = same car, different plate btw

paintjob too , my first cheetah is yellow and other one is blue

[Gridl0k]

Yeah different versions, just said plate because that shows in the computer and some of the colours are similar.

[Foxwolfe]

Naw I've read it all and it definitely hasn't worked like that for me so far. Wasn't trying to say there wasn't any truth in it, just that it wasn't what I had seen. Always have a full warehouse too (usually doesn't dip below 95%).

 

I'll keep an eye on it to see if there's something I missed.

 

Edit: thing I didn't know till today; can't throw explosive out of the police van. I mean it makes sense cause it has the armored/barred windows, but still I don't drive the thing enough to have noticed it before now

Method works perfectly and im collecting only roosvelt & z type collection all the time. It wont work if you have full garage. Just collect 32 cars and sell one. then when you source you will get same car(just plates are random). If you dont like plates because its not from collection just switch session

[EVOLUT7ON]

I didn't know that the barrel will cause a gas station explosion O_o
Moment at 0:28 and 0:55

Looks like it might be a combination of this and the duplicate car thing, I'll concede to being wrong on this one. Appreciate the help guys.

[OCDee]

You can rappel down from the merryweather helicopter.

 

 

Probably mentioned before.

 

[idonknowhow]

I didn't know leave a race in invite only session without other player can give you bad sport. Is it also true in solo session?

The Comet Retro has a dashboard similar to the modern Comet, but with different gauges, instead of having RPM, Speedometer, fuel and coolant temperature, the Comet Retro features RPM, Speedometer, fuel, oil pressure and oil temperature gauges.

 

Nice attention to detail right there, since the car is aircooled.

 

...Real shame the goddamn steering wheel is blocking the gauges, though...

Only just found out this week that you can collect and sell cars as a collection during import/export.

 

It's at the top right of the screen when using the export laptop.

Jet engine turbines are functional like in Storymode during air races unlike in freemode where they are static.

After parachuting to a random hillside near the Humane Labs coastline, I spotted something yellow in the water in the distance.

Low and behold, it was a Kraken submarine! I had no idea they spawned online.

I traveled down, but it's such a remote place that it was too far to dive to anywhere interesting and there wasn't much to see underwater.
Still, a wonderful discovery. Must check again to see if it repeats. Cheers!

That's not the Kraken, that's just the sub from last gen. Here's a side by side of the Kraken and the sub you found.

nice find! Had no dea one was way out there.

 

Also, If you go to the Merryweather docks and get in a Cargobob another Kraken spawns in the water inside the pier (in right side if hovering over the ocean, good piloting skills required ). My son likes to drive it so I hook the spawned one there to a Cargobob and fly it to his chosen destination, IMO it's easier than calling Pegasus and making him drive from wherever the Pegasus ones spawn.

Great catch on that, @Actlikeyouknow! Funny, but that makes it an even more surprising find, for me, as I didn't know there were two different subs!

 

It does beg the question, though, of why there's a last gen sub spawning on a next gen platform?? woah!

 

Holy mindblown! lol! Cheers!

But if an associate leaves the org then kills the CEO then it wont end. Which is really nice, I've seen way too many idiots trying to pull that sh*t.
