Things you didn't know about GTAO until now

[Gridl0k]

Literally the only difference between "Standard" and "Standard FPS" control schemes is that you hold L3 to sprint with the latter, instead of spamming A. I should have changed years ago.

They only act this way if you lower them too much. Everyone needs to get over their precious "stance" and raise the cars to a suitable height. They may screw you randomly still, but it's nowhere near as bad as everyone makes it out to be.

 

While I agree with your point, I should add that your car in this gif isn't going fast enough for bumps to be a problem yet.

I never knew that about GTAO either!

GTAO is the only game I play that I feel the need to use the mic sometimes, and the mic works flawlessly in this game, so there you go.

I’ve discovered the Maze Bank Arena has Arena War signage all over the building along side the Fame Or Shame signage. It’s right in plain sight but it’s the first time I’ve noticed it.

It was pretty much top speed for the car until you see the brake lights come on. So at what speed does it become an issue?

3) My Samsung On7 earphones can also work as microphones, in other words this means that I now have a earphone that works much better than Sony's basic PS4 mic because this earphone is for both ears instead of only one and delivers audio much, much better...It's also way cheaper.

Just FYI as well, all speakers can be used as a microphone if wired correctly

Didn't know that office junk is tagged as "swag" in files.

Is this just some buggery with unicode on the SC website, or is this genuine? Never notice someone with a R* crew tag before, but it didn't show up in the player list or pause menu. 

 

 

Anyway, I shot him in the head, just to be sure.

I just realized I should have bought the Hotring Sabre a long time ago. Thing is a blast. Or maybe I just like not minding scratching the thing up cus it looks great all beat up lol. A tulip for instance does not.

^It's a NASCAR. A 90's racecar. They don't need headlights and probably don't have them to save weight.

 

In I/E you sometimes get a source car which is driving like normal traffic. If you stop your car in front of them, they will drive around it unlike regular NPCs. You can just park an empty vehicle in its path and it'll stop behind that.

I used to stop my car in front of the traffic before the source car... I'd have saved so much time if I knew this before!

So it has to be a car off the street, not a personal car?

[Verstappen]

I use my PV to block the road. As long as you are not in the vehicle, the NPC in the source car should stop.

How fun the Import/Export is. I know it's just stealing and delivering cars, but I'm honestly having a blast.

Oh, it's a hell of a lot of fun. Much better than the grind with Crates, Bunker and MC businesses. It gives you the experience to test drive expensive vehicles you might not have yet.

It also gives you some time to experiment with color combinations, pearls, wheels, body mods, etc.

A greater variety of cars and mods would make it feel like a whole new game!

(and I daresay a lot more players would be doing I/E, for a while anyway)

I even shut down my Bunker and Counterfeit Cash business to focus on sourcing top-range I/E vehicles. Since passive income just doesn't work for me, I couldn't be happier with my decision.

That's the key to enjoying the game: find what you like best and do that, throw some decent missions and personal quests in between to keep it from getting stale, the game's hard to beat that way.

Isn't that that really weird looking box without any headlights? Why would you make a car with no headlights?

 

[Gridl0k]

I always like it when people love I/E because it's literally Grand Theft Auto, yet it had to be added and hasn't been revisited (didn't get a spot in the nightclub, frinstance).

Mirrors are a required part of every FIA racecar I've ever seen...

Today i found out that there are ca. 4 different positions for a clothing category the character can stand at.

For example the jackets stand in the suburban does have 4 different positions.

Me too, I'm hoping R* expand on the street cars we're allowed to sell. I've recently taken up rare spawn spotting and collecting  thx to the new Dubsta (I know, I'm late to the game). Would be nice if we were allowed to sell those "too-hot" cars every now and then.

[Endjinn]

OT(sorry forgot)

 

Didn't know that Chrome/Gold Dubsta's could spawn so many different rare cars.

[kcole4001]

Not sure how many folks realize this, but when doing crate runs if you only source 1 or 2 crates,you only get that many wanted stars due to mission parameters.

For example: if it's the police ambush, police impound, or plane crash missions you get automatic wanted level, but the level matches the number of crates.

 

This also applies for I/E cars: sourcing a low range car results in 1 star, a mid range car nets you 2 stars, top range = 3.

I keep forgetting that in any OPMKII/air vehicle heavy lobby, I can have a sh*tload of fun playing shoot'n'scoot in my Chernobog.

Thank you @alkaline_ for showing me you're able to invite people to an MC/CEO whilst participating in business battles!

For the first time, I saw the running track with the shotput cage and yard markers. It was at night and there were working sprinklers on the field. Pretty cool.

I must have flown right over it a thousand times.
