MC Questions

[salvore]

Greetings! I'm a new player to GTA online, though I have played the GTA series on/off for many years. Recently my wife and I decided to take the plunge and begin playing online. (It was learning we could start our own MC that sold us.) We started a crew, saved the cash and got a clubhouse for the MC, and was ready to dig into the meat of this thing, but sadly we have run into a few questions that are giving us brain cramps, and hope the community here can help us out (we are loving gta online and are ready for years of enjoyment with it).

 

1- Why does the game remove me as MC President each time I log out? ( Each time I log into the game and go to the contracts board it makes me declare myself as the president all over again).

 

2- Why do MC members have to be re-invited to the MC each time they log in? ( My wife is my VP and each time she logs out it removes her from the MC and I must re-invite her when she logs back into the game).

 

3- Can MC members come and go from the clubhouse without me inviting them in to the clubhouse? (Both on foot and with their bike)

 

4- We have not used the open road network to begin any illegal businesses yet. Could this be causing some of the problems I have mentioned above?

 

I'm going to throw in basic info about our characters just in case this is causing some of the problems I have mentioned.

 

-We have a crew, but it is brand new, and my wife and I are the only two members in it.

 

-We have not begun any businesses yet (legal or illegal).

 

-We are both under level 10 at the moment.

 

Thank you for your time and help. My wife and I are having a blast with gtao and are looking forward to good relations and years of gaming with you and the rest of the community.

 

Thanks again,

Sal

1. I think it's just the way it is, when you start the game, you're automatically in "normal" mode, not CEO, not MC President and not in passive mode.

 

2. MC are just not permanent. You will always have to invite members. I also wish there was a permanent option for people playing only with friends or family!

 

3. Yes they can, both on foot and with their bike!

 

4. Everything you mentionned is normal so, it doesn't matter no! Quick tip about businesses; go with a Cocaine Lockup first, by far the best one! With all upgrades too, time to save some GTA$ lol, have fun!

Go with the Coke lockup get all the upgrades. It has worked better for me than the crate biz and what little I have done w the car import.

 

I find $75k supplies yields $112k product near $168 k far. All my sales far, stealing supplies reduced cost of sales. I do other income activities in between sales too like sightseer, jobs, and sale of stolen cars off street (not import biz) every game day. It all adds up.

 

I am able do all Coke jobs w 100 pct execution success unless some screwup. The hydra, buzzard, Karuna, and experience (reps) have been key to this.

 

Research tips other posters have put out too / these a great help in issues not explored here.

 

A strategic base of operations helps - mine is PB w yacht offshore, coke lockup, 2 houses w 6 car garages, biker clubhouse. LSC so close to Coke biz and one of the houses can quickly jog in between. Helipad and hydra pickup also available in PB.

 

When npc plane shot down delivery aircraft on last part of delivery run on crate biz and got zero that's when I decided done w crate biz.

uhm... seems they just started in LS... i don't ask how they bought a clubhouse with two rank 10 chars in a brand new crew - never the less Hydra & Buzzard are really expensive for let's say "Novices" and the Karuna has to be unlocked through Heists... something Novices can't provide at all in the beginning. They have to start somewhere... but im with derek here save money for the coke lab don't waste it on any other business cause in the long term u won't touch them anymore. try to get the upgrades for your business as soon as possible as well to make your life way easier.

 

Good luck and hakuna matata - you will love & hate LS at the same time ; )

Like eLessard_ mentioned, you have to see the MC as 'one of the game modes' you can choose.

A lot of people switch constantly between f.i. MC and CEO. For instance, I can call in a buzzard as CEO, so I tend to fly to my coke business as CEO and then switch to MC president ;-)

 

I think it's a good thing to start with only the MC club though. As a business I would recommend buying only one business and fully upgrade it. Coke is most profitable.

 

If you have other members in your MC, like your wife, you could also consider making them road captain: road captain can call an (unarmed) buzzard => fast transportation.
