People say this every damn update "is this the last one?" "you do know rockstar isn't making anymore right?"

[Jimbatron]

Was timing the progress of research and it looks like it takes 4 hours if you don't fast track it. Atleast, it was half full for the Pegasus mk2 weapon livery after two hours and quarter full after 1 hour.

 

If that's correct fast tracking would appear to be economically viable given you can gross 199,500 from manufacturing in just over 2 hours. So you easily cover the cost of fast track in under 3 - saving you an hour of your staffs time.

 

It's notable fast tracking does not use up your supplies - so if you do it from the get go, you can net a 75k saving off the cost if you buy supplies.

[TeflonDon45]

Does anyone know how much you make from each sale when you've maxed out on stock?

[Schumy7]

I can't believe our bunkers don't have a garage.

No. Bit hoped on 1 spot. Right next to the entrance 'bay 1' parking spot. Its now used for temporaly veichles.

[Rafae]

With full upgrades, 700k to Blaine County, 1.05m to Los Santos

 

It should show up as 700k on the blue bar when you've maxed out stock

So, what is the $$$ amount to sell at before it starts taking more than one vehicle?

We can be outside of freeroam while our supplys fill up? Doing contact missions wont impact it?

[ChengizVlad09]

Gun range seems really challenging, maybe even too challenging, I swear my pinky finger got so numbed while trying to pass the 2nd pistol challenge I had to quit and go to sleep. Lol, and I still haven't been able to beat it. Could be because of low end laptop I'm playing it on and low res, but I couldn't pass beyond score of 795 out of 800, with 24 shots fired and 100 accuracy. Phew...

[CaliMeatWagon]

A lot has been posted since I went to bed, so let me make sure I am caught up.

 

A fully upgraded (staff/equipment) bunker sells takes 7 hours and produces ~$700K sold locally? If this is correct, I'll put it up on the first page.

 

I spent all yesterday just trying to unlock the vehicles so I didn't get a chance to actually track the supply usage.

[KyleCyrilNaylor]

How do you do the MTU settings to go solo in public lobby? I see people talking about it but don't actually know myself???

700k locally and 1.05m out of county

 

Also, it takes approximately 11hrs 40 minutes in-game to max out stock and that's if staff is allocated to manufacturing only

 

I think it would be in one's best interest to unlock all upgrades via fast tracking or manually first and then focus only on stock. Allocating staff to both clearly slows down the progress of each.

would like to know this aswell

You can switch bunkers without loosing researched upgrades, right?

 

I get that you lose upgrades to the bunker like the improved staff and equipment, and security; it's like the MC businesses in that regard. You also lose any current supplies, research, and sale stock.

 

But it doesn't like make you research weapon upgrades over again, correct?

You won't lose research upgrades you've unlocked already obviously but the progress bar of a current research project will be reset when you switch bunkers

How do you do the MTU settings to go solo in public lobby? I see people talking about it but don't actually know myself???

like this

Go to your PS4 settings and then network

 

Set up connection and select the custom option, click through everything the way it is until you get to MTU, select manual and change it to either 800 or 900 (I do 900) and then click next

 

It's advised to do this when in SP or before you start the game as it obviously resets your PSN connection. Also, you need to change the MTU back to default (1500) before joining jobs or joining friends in sessions as it won't let you do so with the same MTU needed for a solo public lobby.

Just did a delivery, Phantom Wedge hauling a trailer with police chasing me. 15 minutes to complete. Ft. Zancudo to right before the LS Port.

 

Couple of notes:

Rockstar has made it where if the trailer is flipped over for more than a couple seconds it respawns, rightside up not to far away.

 

The Phantom Wedge seems to be faster than normal, but about as strong as the owned version.

 

This sale I had ~1.5 bars of supplies or 67 units of stock (I only have staff upgrade).

[oska75]

How much did you get for 1.5 bars?

[Rodrows]

So how fast is the research bar compared to the production bar?

 

I've heard it's only twice as fast. If that is correct then it would only make sense to do product. Let me explain:

 

11h 40m of waiting to get $1050000. If you spend that fast tracking research, you can get 4 at a time.

If you research with supplies instead of money, it takes 11h and 40 minutes to get 2 research unlocks done.

 

My point is, unless the research bar is roughly 4 times faster than the production bar, it does not make sense to research anything with supplies, given these fast track prices.

[CaliMeatWagon]

How much did you get for 1.5 bars?

 

216/324K, but I only have the staff upgrade.

 

Not sure if that was exactly 1.5 bars either. It was 67 units of stock.

[BigStickMama]

All I know is upgraded the Bunker profits 909k every 12 hours (roughly), that's with upgrades and selling out of country (+50% payout), and minus the staff fees ($9400/day roughly 15 days in game = 141k loss). And considering it's passive income that you can do as either CEO or MC President. I'm ok with it's money making potential.

 

It's round-about 75k/hour while playing.

 

Sure it's not on par with grinding heists, but it is on par with some of the less optimal missions in terms of grinding. So having a bunker alone, is like constantly grinding missions. It's more time oriented, which isn't great, but there's worse things. And in it's defense, it doesn't burn thru supplies too fast, so you might have to do a couple supply runs but then you can bank a 1 mil sale at the end of it and reap 90% of it as profit.

If it really takes 4 hours, then unlocking all 45 research item would take 180 hours! If someone plays 30 hours a week, it would take 6 weeks to unlock everything. If he or she plays 20 hours a week it would take 9 weeks (63 days, about two months). Playing 15 hours a week it would take 12 weeks (84 days, almost three months, and by playing only 10 hours per week it would take 18 weeks (126 days, about four months.

 

If production earns 90.000 per hour, then over 180 hours you can profit abou 16 million.

 

But it is tough for those players who cannot afford to spend 10 million right away.

Did a sale last night worth of 567k or so, had 1 friend with me.. We got matched up with 3 Insurgents which we needed to drive from Raton Canyon (close to mt Chiliad) to El Burro Heights (east side of LS) while we had helicopters and sh*t trying to shoot us up with machine guns and missiles.. 15 minutes. I can tell you it was f*cking hard and though we didn't crash or fail or stop at any point so the drive was pretty darn close to perfect we had literally 10 seconds left on the timer when we closed the deal.

 

Judging by this... Hard.as.f*ck.

 

Needed only 1 crash or a wrong turn or a slower helicopter for the return journey to fetch the third Insurgent and the sale would have failed... Not cool.

 

PS. Judging by this, I am not sure I ever wanna wait for the stock to be 100% full and attempting a solo sale, unlike with MC business where you can sell pretty much anything solo except trash trucks and postOp

Should have Hydra'd it back to Raton for the final collect

 

Even then, 15 minutes for that long of a distance for three insurgents is insane when you have only two people. Definitely should have hired a third but it's hard to tell right now how many vehicles you'll be getting for the sale so I can understand.

True dat, besides I don't own a hydra myself and I didn't really wanna trust any random dude with so much of my money (189k) x) (Had only 1 friend playing who I can trust will do everything to make sure the sale is complete)

What's the best bunker to buy if you have limited funds? Are the higher priced bunkers worth it?

[joel15cat]

 

 

 

EDIT: I got $1,071,000, which i guess was because there was another person not in the MC in the session so i got a tiny bonus?

 

 

If there one enemy player in the lobby is 1% of bonus or 2%? Because if is the 2%, maybe there were two enemy players in the session on the end of the sale. If is like crates, for each enemy you won 1% more.

Forgive my bad english.

[Rafae]

Not much difference between any besides a preference for certain locations

[raysis]

I just sold a 224k value on computer to town delivery for around 360k with bonus. We got two monster truck with 5 cool drop point on each truck
