[CH328]

I love that there is christmas update, but what about the forgotten single player? Oh that's right, it's forgotten once again. Great we get the two guns. The christmas tree in legion square isn't there for SP, and nothing else is there. Could they not bother to add just that?

[PalmIsland!]

Ummm... no where does he mention anything about losing to Buzzards in a jet...

If you did read the earlier post, then you would have got that part with the Jet. I always remove old quotes from the post, to prevent quote pyramids.

Just seen a video on Facebook of a friend that used a launcher that locked on to a jet.

It will be hard to grief the lobby with the jet now then, unless it is easy to dodge the missile just like with an buzzard missile.

 

This is a wonderful equalizer to make the jet less of a lobby killer. However, as a buzzard expert, I am leery of how this will affect how I defend against groundcritters who I am trying to slaughter mercilessly.

 

And your comment that a buzzard missile is easy to dodge -- just LOL -- I win the vast majority of my buzzard v buzzard battles, and it is NOT easy to dodge my enemy's missiles, at least not while you're trying to land a hit on him at the same time and keep your altitude up.

 

Big pet peeve of mine: people who say ___________ (fill in the blank) is easy when it's not.

Not to be a dick but dodging buzzard missiles with a buzzard is SUPER easy. As long as you're more concerned with not getting hit than getting the kill, keep increasing in altitude and EVERY missile will pass under you. As soon as you stop gaining height you'll die. Stay far above you opponent and rain hell down on them.

 

The real caveat is when both buzzards hit max altitude. But I've never been forced that high. My opponent gets frustrated and flys away. I pursue and keep a higher altitude and eventually they go boom.

 

I should also note a tiny bit of forward momentum in addition to gaining altitude will help you evade them even better.

Anyone else lose their private plates? Mine reset to random letters and numbers..

 

Also, I had a 6 car apartment and can no longer but 4 cars in 'storage'...

[mrpodo100]

Which racecar is better?

Both.

 

If you can only afford one, I'd say the Massacro in a race but the Jester for looks.

The 'X person/Some players are off the radar' notification now remains on screen until the timer runs out.

I'm on 360, and I see nothing new except that I can own a third property. Any suggestions.

 

After you download the update,start a game. Press the start button to pause the game. Select Xbox Games Store. You'll see a new download pack. Download it.

what system and when did you play last? i believe that happened a few patches ago on xbox one and ps4, but it was already fixed. 360/ps3 had it until this patch i think. if you go put them back on they should stick.

Not to brag but when I use a Jet, then I'm invincible against players with Buzzard. They can't shot me down, and it is easy to dodge their missiles with the Jet. You really suck if an Buzzard can rape you if you use a Jet.

"That is a TOTAL of 60 Vehicles and 9 Bicycles"

 

What? No matter how I read that it feels wrong. 3 properties with max 10 cars would be 30 cars. If you mean both characters then it would be 60 but then 6 properties with 3 racks max would mean 18 bikes.

[Gridl0k]

I swear the chopper spawns have changed, in that today I've got a frogger, annilihilator and maverick from the helipad whereas usually it's all buzzards and the odd cargobob

@Everyone

I am currently updating the thread with all this new and great information, THANK YOU, to all of the contributors and followers.

[hercules1975]

I have no idea if anyone has mentioned this, but the Truck horn 'glitch' has been fixed (now a Baller with one installed is worth only $10k) and also the Passive mode on/of glitch no longer works if you are stood on top of a blue trash container, you no longer sink into inside of it.

[Gridl0k]

Expanded Radar is definitely busted, it's resetting to off everyday time I change session or join a job. Not impressed.

[Tha Saucier]

I just picked up a crate tonight(Thursday Dec. 18th) and got $5k, 5k RP, minigun, body armor, and a Pisswasser beer hat. I Saw another post earlier that someone got a Liberty T, maybe they are giving everyone a second chance to get the 4th of July (special crate)goodies.

[Tha Saucier]

The horn glitch has been patched. Tried it on 2 different vehicles, you just end up wasting a grand.

[KevinthePRF]

Can anyone corroborate this? I just went to my social club profile and my online character is gone. I am assuming a stats update.

Edited December 19, 2014 by KevinthePRF

[feloniousrick]

Mines showing just fine.

[Dr Murder]

 

 

What the f*ck do you need 60 vehicles for.. cant even fill one garage, lol.

I see it more as 30 because I only play as one character, i see no reason to ever play as a second character because its stupid and pointless

I agree and slightly disagree:

 

it is in the best intrest to make sure your original avatar stays high rank..but also it's fun aswell when you restart a avatar and feel like you always gotta watch your back at low levels

 

it's that feeling of the whole lobby assuming your a rook.

 

Also those moments when a high level shows up only to pay respect / maybe help out or bodyguard

 

knowbody knows you have a 2nd avatar

 

it's fun!!

 

I really don't see mean people.. couple honks and we roll

it's PS4 and only after buying my third property. My vehicle plates didn't reset.. My actual private plate in LSC reset to random number and letters.

 

As for cars disappearing.. I drove a car into my 6 car garage (4 storage spots) and instead of my extra car going into storage it deleted one from the 6 cars shown.

Second garage license plate reset again for no reason.

New Features:
►Players are now able to own a third property.

◆That is a TOTAL of 30 Vehicles and 9 Bicycles!

►"Deadzone" and "Acceleration" sliders have been added to control Settings.
►"First Person Mode Auto Level Camera" on/off setting has been added to Settings.

►Three new settings added:
◆"First Person Aim / Look Deadzone" – This reduces right stick deadzone. A lower deadzone allows for the game to register player input sooner and in turn make aiming more responsive for players that require greater precision; the higher the setting, the faster the player is able to look around.
◆"First Person Aim / Look Acceleration" – This controls how quickly speed is increased until the player reaches maximum turn speed; the lower the setting, the longer it takes for the player’s turn speed to reach maximum.
◆"First Person Auto Level Camera" on/off setting – This gives the player complete control over where they’re looking at all times. With the option on, if a player is looking down and moving forward then the camera will pan up so that the player can see in front of them. With the option off, then the player would remain looking at the ground when moving forward.

Getting constant High Priority Vehicle texts from Simeon, and Armored Trucks keep spawning.

 

Made a good chunk of money so far, sold two for Simeon, one was 15,000$ and then an armored truck, then another for simeon and then another armored truck. About to go for another High Priority Vehicle now.
