Didnt got those 250k and i logged in this afternoon

[its no tv sketch]

 

$250k's quite nice I guess, though I have a feeling they're just trying to lure people into getting their money wiped (there's a purge going on).

I actually laughed out loud when I got the "thanks for playing, here's 250k" screen after thhat "hello cheater, we've adjusted your $" screen

My reaction when the Shotaro and Deadline is released:

what about the Super Yacht , the Aquarius ? I mean at 5,something milli it s now even cheaper than the cheapest one . the Bukingham heli+lampadati boat cost more than $5M both , and they come with the Yacht . are there other advantages having a Yacht ? apart from those VIP works ?

I have 40 milli so I might pull the trigger on this one , but I always thought that yachts are useless ....

EDIT: I just read that you can t have acess to the vehicles that come with the Aquarius via Pegasus,they just spawn around the yacht and you can´t spawn them using your phone. so now I m not buying the yacht

 

Also, say you fly from your yacht with the yacht helicopter. Land in street in front of LSC. Steal passing Baller, go in LSC, sell Baller.

 

When you leave LSC your helicopter is despawned back to the yacht. The yacht heli is essentially useless except for sightseeing and getting flying practice. Random helicopters that spawn at helipads for free are more useful for actually doing stuff.

 

A CEO office + Buzzard is WAY more useful than any yacht.

We're supposed to get it by the 4th from logging in.

I didn't get my money yet either.

Hoping for a few days of double rp and/or double cash for something useful, aka via work, missions etc. That'd be a nice Halloween surprise.

I expect double money for Lost V Damn and Slasher as they're Halloween stuff.

But hopefully when the Halloween event is over, we can get double something that isn't an Adversary mode.

The free money should be enough to help me get a new Turismo R. I've setting eyes on the car since the Business Update.

One more day bro's and sister's here. One more day til we get back the Halloween Stuff from last year. I can't wait. I am so stoked about the bikes too.

THE SANCTUS COMETHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

 

I'm going to buy a few masks I missed and i also missed ONE GOD DAMN FACEPAINT! ONE!!

A funky bike gets the name of a legendary amphibious vehicle, without even having any amphibious abilities.

 

What the sh*t is this.

Can't wait for them to release a car called the Hunter!

 

...

Would be funny if they wrote an article saying the Hunter is coming without giving out too much details and when it finally gets released it's just a sh*tty sedan or SUV

I bought the Hakauchau mc for $638 k (on sale). For my mc races.

I laughed out loud when I saw on social media everybody throwing Rockstar under the bus because they got their modded accounts with modded money, no recoil on weapons and modded rolls banned.

That last part is the best news of all. Modding money is stupid sure, and defeats the point of playing IMO, but the modded recoil and rolls is a hands down advantage over other players...

 

Good to see the karma scale being purposely balanced by R*

[jdv95]

i agree with the above 2 posts!

 

people need to learn the difference between modding a SP and modding a online game.

 

if you don't know the difference or simply won't follow the basic rules of online gaming then you don't deserve to own a gaming platform (be it pc,ps3 or 360.)

 

and most of all they should scrap their name from the gaming community.

 

go ahead scream at rockstar that you will take them to court and what not,just know that you already lost the case by signing the TOS and the moment you broke them.

SO. Any PC guys wanna tell me if the Sanctus is worth it's nearly two million dollar price tag??

You can call for a boat at the shore or for the helicopter to either pick you up or near so you can access it though by calling the captain of the boat if I remember correctly.

A CEO office + Buzzard is WAY more useful than any yacht.

 

 

Better check that again. Seems like R* changed something recently. I just flew to the CEO office in my yacht heli, landed on the roof, exited to the street, called a Buzzard, flew all over the map doing Headhunter, returned to my office and the Super Volito was still on the helipad.

 

Agreed that CEO office (and accompanying functions) is a much better ROI than the yacht. Best thing they've ever added to the game IMHO.

Can hideout on yacht if you have an bounty. Once you're on yacht go into inventory menu > "Yacht settings?" > put the defense system up accordingly > now watch the players all try snipe you, swim and enter your yacht but do nothing as weapons disabled from yacht defenses being up and enjoy a seat in the jacuzzi waiting for the notification you survived bounty. The jacuzzi also regenerates your health bar. Edited October 27, 2016 by 5.7

I have a serious need for both the Sanctus /and/ the Shotaro. Mostly the shotaro but still. I've been hoarding money waiting for this update. This is taking too long to come out! Also i didn't even know there was halloween themed bobbleheads that came out last year until today. Go figure.

Seeing the lack of bitching and plenty of people saying they still have their billions, millions and what not...meh...

Besides, the game is currently getting milked so, i kinda could understand cheaters.

This is coming from someone who was really on rockstars side before 2016, but yea, the past year they did not put much effort on balancing, match making fixes and overall just fixing the game, instead they are just giving updates, the one more broken then the other, all the big ones since ill gotten gains pretty much containing a vehicle that completely destroyed a class.

 

I take it back if they show they got the balls to nerf the OP sh*t i am talking about and balance the whole f*cked up deal between regular players, jet pilots and the homing launcher and do not care about any butthurt that will give, but yea, their incompetence has been off the charts lately

 

Sure it is somewhat redeeming that they did fix the garage glitch and balanced the super car class again, and well...the banhammer coming down stronger then it has been in years but so far i feel it i am not even close at being truly able to appreciate them again.

Probably gonna dress up like Ghost Rider for the week

Nice costume bro. I'm gonna have my Halloween on GTA on Sunday probably. I'm busy on Halloween night in my costume cuz I got a life

NOT TRYING TO TALK ABOUT OTHERS BTW. Just saying I know friends my age who'd rather spend the night on a virtual mmo like WOW fake trick-or-treating then going out irl SMFH.

Gonna have a halloween party at probably my yacht with costumes and then we'll go trick-or-treating in Rockford Hills or do any of u ppl here know good places with family sized Meteorite bars and big boxes of P's and Q's???

 

Prob end the night with a costume contest at my yacht and then yacht sleepover. Then IRL I'll be out the night after that
