Things you didn't know about GTAO until now

[Verstappen]

Sitting in some place in the Auto Shop does not allow you to acces Jobs , playlists & 'Criminal Enterprise starter Pack' while other places do. It'll tell you they're unavailable while in THE office chair.

I didn't know we could get electrocuted by touching exposed wires on abandoned buildings...

 

I was randomly wandering around on the countryside circling an old house.. Then I suddenly dropped, electrocuted. I panicked at first thinking it was some player with a Drone or the RC car, but then I noticed the exposed wires on the house wall... I got near it again and got electrocuted again, this time bringing a smile into my face, only now realizing this kind of environmental hazard existed in the game after 3K hours played.

 

Tell us the truth. You went a touched it a third time didn't you?

It's not easy but you can trick NPCs into running into them.

I've literally waited 8 years for this, behold, the perfectly flat train.

 

 

Just one of those little things, if I see a train I see if it's flat. First one. I can retire now.

 

Also you can overfill your nightclub

About trains, I have had one spawn right in front of my eyes a few years back, killing a friend of mine who has just spawned on the track lol

I had one spawn inside the other in the same session. 

The only thing special was that I had some really trash internets while playing that day

Somehow, I'm not sure how, you can sometimes deliver a customer car from the Autoshop without getting the cutscene. It went to a black screen and immediately got the money and 'receipt' overlay. Perhaps a hotfix for cars on the daily export list? I haven't checked if the Comet is on there.

Yeah it's a hotfix for the daily export list. Comet is on there today.

It's my main car cause I was helping somebody with a Heist setup earlier, booted up the game and to my surprise it's in here with me lol

For a big period of time you could basically visit any interior under the map by going into an wallbreach and parachuting there in the void, or using a wallbreach in the Life Invader building that was big enough for the Hydra go in and eject in the desired location, all of this is not possible anymore by legit means since Rockstar put a deathzone under the map because people where using this with bad intentions, the existance of the Deluxo and Oppressor MK II made it also ridiculously easy to navigate under the map.

This was always so much fun. Got inside so many hidden interiors, locked car parks, and stuck in shop windows etc. using the Deluxo. My favourite random parachute discovery was Jack Howitzer's motel room, complete with two random NPCs sat at the table miles under the map and disconnected from everything.

Yeah, I loved exploring and looking how some of this interiors are detailed, for example, the action figures in Lester's home where recycled in the Arcade, so much detail for a place that you go once or twice in the single player.

If a place change occurs at the VERY last second of a Freemode Event, it may not register properly, notice me getting third place despite my higher score

 

 

Pegasus vehicles spawn in the Davis impound lot. No, the gates don't open for ya, and yes, you do get a wanted level for gettin in

 

 

In the Tuner Contracts, you can ride along with the called in NPCs. They're not the best drivers tho

 

 

I know it's been posted, but I still can't get over...

In the MC, there is a picture of your character on the wall. As you look at it, if you change glasses, hat... the picture changes instantly.

those require you to ragdoll to be able to fully render it.
if you would have used the up´n atomizer to ragdoll yourself, they would also render in thirdperson

Thanks for the information, but unfortunately my pictures are from February 2016 when the up'n Atomizer was not available.

I've never noticed the 4 copper coloured metal plates on the northbound lane road surface opposite the Alta garages, which I have pretty much always owned.

 

I've certainly never spun out one of my DR1s because the nose dug in when I hit them, which is how I just noticed them.

 

I must have travelled that road a million times and never paid them any regard, or crashed.

 

Nurse!

Apparently taking a picture counts as being in first person mode. I learned this while taking pictures during the Cayo setup and received the achievement of being in first person for 15 hours.

This barricade/wall can be physically damaged.

I used to do this a lot, was fun to explore a bit and flex your know-how of the game on other players, there's still a way to enter a lot of these btw, because R* mostly just added the 'deathzones' to the wall breach entry points, not to the actual locations people try to enter. There is a trick with the insurgent (non pickup version) where you remove the back door then climb inside the insurgent, then you can glitch trough a lot of garage doors, walls, etc, first time i've seen this was in the below video, wich is also a good guide on how to do it.

 

 

(same guy has a bunch of video's on where you can use this to enter places like humane labs, the start of player garages, trevors torture chamber & more)

Also you can still get into the FIB building trough the roof (park a cargobob at an angle onto the glass so you can combat roll under it, then combat roll up towards the nose of cargobob, after a few tries your ragdoll should glitch trough the glass and bring you inside, it contains all of the destroyed SP interior but also the diamond casino prep interior) Its kind of odd that of all the wall breaches there are this one still works, because if you do this you have an amazingly OP sniper spot where you can shoot bscly anyone outside but people cant shoot into the building, so you're essentially godmode sniper.

Also for some strange reason they never added this 'deathzone' to the IAA building, any guide you can find on entering that trough the roof using a motorcycle (opp mk1 or airlift a motorcycle there with a cargobob) still works.

When you do Gruppe6 Casino heist, there is a guard to open the vault for you.

Except if the alarm has been set off before you reach the vault, then he suddenly isn't there and you have to drill it open. Plus you have less time inside, of course.

I recently started doing the Agatha Baker missions again when I recently remembered they existed and that I wasn't that far away from getting the platinum award for doing them. Anyway... I was doing the one where you drop off the car somewhere while evading the cops and she tells you there isn't a dead body in the trunk. I always wondered if the devs actually put anything in the trunk. After a series of incidents, I accidently got the car stuck in one of the train cars. In the process of trying to flip it off the train with the up-n-atomizer, I blew off the trunk lid. I was actually surprised that there was a bloody body in the trunk.

Woah!

 

When you snag the Thelma and Louise car, you can't store it in a garage if there is still one of the corpses in it. You have to remove the carcass.

Did they nerfed the Up and Atomizer? It doesn't ragdoll me anymore

[Gridl0k]

If you call a cop car via 911 at night the passenger cop will look around with a torch.

 

Also I'm watching a youtube video and the host keeps saying "cove-ted" so now I have to change what I call that mission.

Oh...This might be it.

 

My PS4 has been on for a few days, gotta take advantage of that 2x on REP and Nightclub production.

 

Now I wonder if that was intentional on R* part so they could get more players online, so the overlords would be happy and forget about the whole E&E sh*tshow.
