The Headquarters

[MusicMan05]

 

But how many places are suitable for HQs? Most likely, it has to be in LS, unless they add a new exterior, like they did with Benny's. The one from the picture is either Lombank or Bluff Tower, both have an entrance lobby & garage doors. What is left? Arcadius? Haven't checked for doors yet. But unless Eclipse Towers, Richard Majestics & so on aren't HQs, this would become a mess with multiple VIPs. Sharing the same place...

I think any of the office buildings, with a garage door, are potential locations for HQs. For example, they could use on of the office buildings by LSIA.

My guess is Los Santos

I would see it as a place when Pegasus vehicle spawn without heading outside.The big cheese warlord gangster would have inhouse garage. He might store any number of saleable illgotten gains. Remember the Scarface villa that was in Vice City. It could be a place that can be entered and attacked, but against the loss of a safespace, the HQ generates some money (a bit like the Vice City villa). An attacker who goes in big with his friends could end up with money that makes a heist look like chump change. Who knows though?

Perhaps the most suitable HQ would be an old style hotel, to be like Nucky Thompson in Boardwalk Empire. A fairly tall but spacious building like that would be suitable. The tall office block interior shown earlier is likeliest, but hopefully there's all grades of HQ available from some rundown garage with attached offices to one of the many office blocks. I've found that one of the stilt houses I own can be the home of others in the same lobby. Now a HQ might make it annoying, but sharing premises (in a way) wouldn't ruin things.

(Despite we had Humane Labs in Story and Online which to me was a reach because Humane should have had the ultimate security& Lock Down after what happened in Online but thats another long story).

 

 

Hey, they put those bars in the water tunnel after our heist in Online. Job done.

 

lol true but i think Humane Labs have done more such as halting from having important toxins or other equipment within the facility and all chemical equipment that could be weaponized would have been transported away from that area like the nerve gas that we had to steal as michael. so that mission was kinda inconsistent in the story due to the prequel Online humane heist.

 

It's a Government run facility. Do you really think they could implement enough changes in 6 months? Hell, the environmental impact study for transporting the paperwork to authorize the movement of a bottle of aspirin would take at least a year!

It seems that the location of the headquarters in that picture is on the top floor of a very high building.

[Robaldinio]

Surely it will just be in your apartment, like the heist planning room?

 

Has anybody noticed how Organisations are rather similar to Posses in RDR (which is what I always said Crews should have been like in the first place)? If Crews weren't already obsolete, this update will surely be the nail in the coffin.

Could one of y'all that can do such things go inside the Maze Bank just east of DPH apartments / lombank and see if the shot lines up better? I too thought it was lombank but ZANTHERA pointed out Maze and I was able to get a pretty good replication of that angle by skydiving and using editor but an inside shot would be better.

I hope you can put your tank in the carport of your HQ, awesome.

The first thing I tried to do when I bought my yacht was to try and create a battleship by cargo bobbing my tank on to it.

I think this building is a potential HQ its got interior,warehouse and access points all round

 

[Dragon_Of_Tragedy]

I can't wait for these to open.I have a surplus supply of proximity mines I need to use up before they expire.

The random items scattered around the second HQ (which appears to be a different interior than the first) got me thinking. Will there be unlockable decorations in the HQ?

 

 

Besides the obvious money on the desk, there's a few other merchandise related items scattered about. If you play a little game of I Spy, you can find the following:

 

-Artwork

-Flat screen TV boxes

-iFruit laptop and iFruit phone boxes

-NOGO Vodka box

-Silver boxes

 

This has got ne thinking. GTA:Chinatown Wars had unlockable decorations tied to milestones in the drug dealing. Could the items in the second HQ picture be milestone items for the various merchandise/overall business? For example the Artwork, TV boxes, NOGO box could unlock after selling a certain number of each merchandise type. Meanwhile the more money your business makes, the more cash you have lying around.

 

If not, we at least know more about the various merchandise will be dealing with.

I doubt it

it'll just be like the coffee cup in the monroe, clutter for the sake of detail, except it will likely be the same clutter in every location.

Except the first HQ picture has non of the clutter. Unless the clutter is because the second HQ picture is of a low/mid-end office, and the first is for a high-end office.

^ Presumably (hopefully) the CEO thing has a progression, wouldn't surprise me if you have to start in dingy HQs doing low level scores to finally end up at the top.
