Actually, grinding ain't that bad. 30 minutes of the new rooftop rumble method gets you a hundred grand which can last a month for me in ammo.

30 minutes of grinding a day is hardly taxing at all. You can then spend the rest of it doing f*ck all.

Only when necessary, like when I wanted a tank I grinded to 75 then stopped and just have fun. And like when I wanted a Dubsta I grinded to 100 and now I've stopped. I don't see me grinding again unless there's a new reward at 120.

I do RR 5 times in a row when I need money

this DLC might get my balance below 1M, so I think I have to do this a little bit before having those funny car

I'm on my second character. At level 58 now. I can't currently start RR on my own. I run around in free mode until I get invited to RR and I'll join it and play it until the host stops replaying. So yeah, I'm a grinder, nobody will ever convince me to buy a cash card. I may get one some day. When I'm high enough level to buy a tank or something.

Nope. I go on player killing rampages 90% of the time and do missions or race for fun.

Blow everything up from the alley and wait until the documents spawn

It is completely legit and yes, I do not grind. I bide my time and save up for what I want, don't waste too much in free-roam and use a tank or a Buzzard where I can in missions. I just join random missions and survivals and it soon mounts up.

 

Didn't you say you were bored of this game because you repeated all the missions too much, like a month ago?

Yes. I grind defender, chopper trail, and on manuevers. You guys will always find something to complain about. First it was glitching and now it's grinding. If you consider yourself "legit" then cool beans for you, it's not like it really matters anyway.

I found it randomly so I don't have a link. They hotfixed it yesterday so that sucks. Doesn't matter though. RR spawns you near the place now but without a PV.

I will grind, especially if I'm close to a "landmark". Like if I'm near another level or like last night I was close to $16 million (like a hundred grand away) so I'll play one mission over to reach the goal, then go back to doing whatever.

Yes, at least lately. When you only have maybe an hour a day, if you're lucky, and want to hit rank 120 sometime this year...

I did. I'm always joining jobs, but it's usually RR or the extremely boring Coveted. It's a nice break when you get Titan of a Job, LS Connection, Chemical Extraction, or any of the low level jobs really.

Yes.

 

Although now that they've Buffed coveted and RR. I don't know what I'm going to do now

I dont understand why everyone is so upset about Coveted and RR. Im still doing them solo no problem so if you could have just one other person with you or more it should be a piece of cake.

In my experience, Coveted works best with 4 people. RR works best with 2.

 

When I play RR with 3 other crewmates, I like to challenge 2 of em to an impromptu "foot race" while the 4th guy delivers.

It's pretty fun :D so give it a try. Keeps the grind from being too boring.

My grinding days ended the day rooftop rumble was changed :p

 

I have watched my bro play it many times (it's basically his 2nd job lol), understand how it works, but I just cannot bring myself to do it. the double rp double cash weekend killed it for me, i made like 1.7m during those 2(?) days and probably 1.5 was from RR. almost made me physically ill lol.

 

as for coveted, i never played it before it was changed (!), but again saw my brother do it frequently. right after it was changed, i tried it once, the randoms i was playing with got the cargobob destroyed (i got left behind @ the cove) and i never bothered with it again.

 

my main source of income is deathmatches. i feel i have enough 'cushion' money from those dark days so now i just do what i enjoy :). sell a car as soon as i get online, 3-4 deathmatches, and repeat.

I was bored of the game in general because I was rolling solo and had completed/unlocked everything I was interested in. Playing with crew or friends makes it a lot better, even the boring sh*t.

Sometimes I grind, but really it depends on my mood, how well I know the person, and also how drunk I am.
