I'm already lvl 230. I stopped caring about RP when I ranked up to 120 in December.

As if double RP is really gonna help players afford the overpriced content from the Independence day DLC. Besides, most of us probably already have characters past rank 120 anyway. Both of them to be exact.

Maybe a double RP/Cash weekend was originally planned but was changed based on the amount of people that took part in the hooker glitch.. Idk. Can't really think of another reason for why they would only have double RP; this serves no benefit at all to a rather large portion of the community. Unless there's an upcoming update with things that are available based on RP. Mansions only available to 150+... one can hope!

It's great for me, I'm trying to rank up my second character. I'm trying to make enough money to buy 30 more vehicles in the process though so double cash would have been even better.

Rank higher! Unlock more! Buy cash cards!

 

It's becoming fairly insulting at this point.

I'm rank 231 so obviously RP in irrelevant to me. Yet again R* is screwing us out of money.

Screwing you out of money? That's some interesting logic right there. I suppose when you get a free steak at a restaurant, they're screwing you out of a salad.

For those joining after 23 pages, I take it this event is supposed to start midnight tonight Eastern, ie 5am UK time?

Last night I played with a level 29 (now 30). He'd had the game since launch but didn't crack it open until now. So, double RP will benefit some folks who have just gotten the game or just gotten into the game.

 

As for your theory...so Rockstar's brillant brillant brillant plan is to punish those that didn't glitch, since they aren't removing the ill gotten money from those that did?

 

I really don't think so.

 

I really do think as someone else said in the thread it will be double RP on arm wrestling or some such nonsense.

Doesn't it indicate the double rp is for everything?

All Jobs and other RP-gaining activities like Gang Attacks, Hold Ups, and Import/Export to name a few, will earn you double RP

Yes, I absolutely agree that it will benefit many people. I will be helping out one of my low level friends this weekend with good missions so he can finally rank up quicker. But the whole thing is that much of the community is being ignored with this event. I'm by no means complaining about just being RP - I'm just trying to understand the logic. You don't say farewell to a special update and remind people that this is their last chance to obtain these high priced items with an event that doesn't help you at all in obtaining these limited items.

 

I didn't buy the monster truck because I can't see myself spending 700k on that. Now if it were a double $$$ weekend also, I'd be buying all of the limited time items - no question.

 

Also, I believe double RP is for everything.

You missed my point entirely I just like to wrastle..

Unfortunately, no.

 

For (idk what levels+) with FA and playing with crew you get almost or around 6k rep.

 

AA with crew gets about 5.4/5.5.

 

Still not bad, but it's not "double RP"

It'll be interesting to see whether R* has any other level restricted content to release in the future. It's a possibility for why they are hosting a double RP weekend event, but who knows exactly, anyone's guess is as good as everyone else's. At least those who are still below rank 100 and need a few more levels to unlock the Dubsta 6x6 have the opportunity to do so, good news for them and a nice chance.

Dam... :( , i was hoping to net 10,000 rp for doing that race (if i could come in 1st, 7000 for 2nd, lol) and short of 7000 rp for RR. But still im looking forward to any "double" rp i can get a hold of, to get my other character to rank 120...

I'm not necessarily expecting them soon or anything, and sorry for bringing up the 'H' word, but I wouldn't be surprised if heists are rank restricted. Like bigger heists require higher ranks. Just like the way new jobs and missions become available as you level up when you're starting out.

 

Might work in a similar way as jobs do now too, as in - you can 'host' your high level heist, but can still hire (invite) lower level minions :)

  • Ron is a prick and won't let my #2 character get crate drops so no crate glitching for me.

 

I'm away this weekend anyway.

 

I guess I'm grateful for my triple Patriot hat mega combo.

 

Is it mid July yet?

I wouldn't be surprised If this was the case. It's the same concept right now but with missions, as you said. A higher level player can host for other low level players and give them a chance to do the missions that pay well, as well as, give a nice amount of RP. :)

Meh. RP is useless once you get past Rank 120. I'm holding out hope that maybe the next Update will have some nice high ranking perks such as missions, cars, or even an extra garage for any in the the ranks of 200 or above? Prolly not though..
