Question about Halloween surprise


Gothamite
 Share

Recommended Posts

Hi,

 

Since I won't be able to play much today I was wondering if there's anything about this 'surprise' that's limited?

Like certain facepaint for example? Will they be available after Halloween or they won't be available tomorrow?

 

If they are limited however, can I unlock them for good if I just buy certain facepaint for example? Will those that weren't there before, always be there if I buy them today?

Also If I buy it on 1st char, do I need to buy it for 2nd char too, or it will automatically unlock for 2nd char as well?

 

Thx

Last year the masks and the face paints were available until November 15th, so i think your good to go.

 

 

If you buy something that is limited and you remove it, it will still be there. It wont disappear from your inventory.

If you purchase the Halloween dashboard bobbleheads they should be permanently available to any vehicles that can be customized with them (though only for the character that bought them).

The horns have a history of being troublesome. If they are replaced with another horn they may not be available again, or are only available for the specific vehicle(s) it was applied to. Rockstar may have fixed this issue... or typical.

I went cheap last year and bought the cars, the facepaints, the flashlight, (all to both characters) but didn't buy all the bobbleheads.

Bought the rest of them this morning before I forgot again.

It would have been cool if they had something solely exclusive to today, heck even the Manhunt mask... eh, well :/

I'd rather throw candy at the neighbors' kids tonight. Bad enough they've done Christmas Day-exclusives (semi-exclusive in 2014).

Just think about the Drag Tornado that's allegedly arriving tomorrow.

I haven't heard the price of it yet, but I'll bet it's leaked out there already.

 

If I was Rockstar and setting the stats for it: I'd give it the best acceleration of any 4-wheeled vehicle, the highest top speed of any land vehicle, but give it the turning radius of the Tug and the turning stability of the Hotknife, keep it permanently rusty with no secondary color and no livery options, and make it $999,999; then, make it prone to rolling over if it hits a bump.

You have until the 15th to collect everything you want.

 

Facepaints only need to be bought once and it they will remain permanently available in the barbers even after Halloween is over, but you will still need to pay for them each time you want to put it on again. The same goes for vehicles, bobbleheads and car horns. Masks and the flashlight will remain in your inventory and don't need to be bought again (unless you drop the flashlight).

 

You will need to purchase everything a second time for your other character. Anything you don't buy, you'll have to wait until next year.

Good to know that facepaint will still be there once we bought it,kinda worried it will be gone once this update is over. My firstever halloween update btw.

It's not a dumb idea to record a video showing you cycling through all your purchased facepaints.

In case they disappear, that's all the proof you'll need to get Support to restore it.

Better to do that after buying them, that way all the prices are replaced with checkmarks.

You have at least a week.

Hey man i really appreciate your reply but what i noticed when i bought the facepaint is they are not replaced with checkmark but the price came back instead. But i still hope thats enough to keep them in my account,just like hairstyle or vehicles on independence day special update.

Awww. that's right. You do have to re-purchase those (unlike bobbleheads or tattoos)

You do have to record the act of purchasing those.

Seconded. Haven't had stuff disappear on me like that, but from previous experience with R* support they are very quick to resolve things when given proof. Screenshotting the transaction log from the bank might help too.

 

By contrast, R* support tend to put you at the back of the line if you don't have anything conclusive to give them up front because of the people trying to BS their way to free stuff.

I sent R* a ticket to asked them about facepaints and this is their reply :

 

Brady_B_1426, Oct 31, 20:41 EDT:

Hello DontGetClose90,

Thank you for contacting Rockstar Support.

Facepaints can be considered ‘consumable’ i.e. if you change your facepaint, then you have completely lost the original facepaint. So you DO have to pay to re-apply any purchased facepaint – but in the case of Halloween facepaints, you will retain re-purchasing access, but you will have to pay full price if reapplying.

If you have anymore questions, concerns, or technical issues please contact us again and we would be more than happy to assist.

Please enjoy your Holiday!

Best regards,

Brady B.

This is confirmed for bobbleheads too? If I buy all the bobbleheads on the Franken Stange, after Halloween, can I buy them on every vehicle that has the ornament option? I thought I need to go to each vehicle that can have ornaments and rebuy the bobbleheads again for that specific vehicle. The horns I know are tied to specific vehicles, but I am looking for confirmation on the bobbleheads. It would be asinine to have to buy bobbleheads for each car I want them for just to have them unlocked after Halloween for that specific car.

 

I've read all of the posts here, but I am still confused. Probably, because I am really tired.

Yeah the bobbleheads will remain in your account once you bought it. I dont think it will tied to specefic vehicles.

I bought one of each bobblehead last year, as I was not interested in them, but was still curious as to what would happen when the tunables changed over.

 

They stick per character, meaning they are not locked to the specific car you buy them for and can be applied to any vehicle with the option for it, but only for the character you bought them with. I lost the horns I paid for, however, so I have no idea on that front.
