I won't stop playing. Like others have said, I'm also part of a friendly crew, so it won't be too much of an issue. If R* decide to do something about selling in lobbies where only one crew is present on top of patching solo lobbies I'll start duping until the day comes that I get banned.

 

It isn't about in game money or avoiding any perceived challenge. I just enjoy playing alone sometimes and having the in game cash to customize cars.

With all due respect I think you guys are over reacting. First of all, the dude R* F***** is replying to says he's a Billionaire... No way in hell that's legit, R* F might be implying that there's a new ban wave & a better detection service. Second, the dude says he is blocking ports ... That's not the same as the MTU trick as far as I know. Third, the sale system used for F&F\Bikers\IE\GR cargo should be considered "old" by now & I doubt R* will try to mess with it giving how many stuff they built on it & a single codding error could screw up everything related to that. Even if IF they patch the MTU trick, there's always another way. Ever since they patched the Playlist trick, there hasn't been a "reliable way" to get a solo session on Xbox, yet that hasn't stopped us from getting solo sessions ... I was in one earlier today & I've made 1.4M in that session & another 2M in another session the day before. I've earned a lot of money (legit) since GR came out & they patched The Playlist trick. Not only I earned back the money I spent, but I'm 44M richer than the day GR came out.

 

There's always a way .... Don't panic.

I have sent countless emails to Rockstar about how it is impossible to grind missions in free roam, R* dont seem to realise that there are bullys in the world and they get off on trolling, humilating and just plain bullying of other players that just want to enjoy the features of the game.

Not a big deal for me. I rarely do anything in public lobbies that other players can bother me with. And most of times im hanging out in friends only lobbies.

That wouldn't stop me one bit from playing the game. I play the game differently then just make money in public sessions. I play the game with my friends, crew and family that I have. If it weren't for them then I wouldn't be playing at all. Doing stuff in public sessions doesn't bother me one bit. If anything would stop me for playing online is if Rockstar decided to shut down the online servers for everyone.

I just joined a growing crew where they do Jet Lobby Takeovers....so I'm not leaving anytime soon. I also refuse to pack bags until I'm in the cockpit of an apache.....and hopefully a A-10........with aircraft customization.......

I'll carry on griefing until everybody leaves and I'm the last person left to turn the lights out.

If they find a way to circumvent the MTU 700 method on PSN it would also solve a problem that has been plaguing GTA Online since 2013. Constant session drops due to poor communication with other players.

 

However, they've had since 2013 to address this issue and failed every. Damn. Time. So I think I'll be ok for a while.

 

That being said, sure I'll still play. Why wouldn't I?

If you feel "bullied" in GTAO because other players are presumably destroying or stealing your deliveries as the game invites them to do, then you shouldn't play it. I realise that this is a widely derided type of response, but that is because it is the harsh truth.

I think R* fag is talking about R* fixing that port blocker method on PC not about fixing the MTU or solo public lobbies, if they choose to fix the MTU settings, i bet many players would left the game, but, like agent 14 said in the offshore assets mission "if it's only thing that my partner and i doesn't like it's fair games" that word seems to explain R* logic in every way, from patching of the time and date method, kuruma, helicopter and many more, but i'm sure there's still a vulnerability in their system and someone somewhere with many hours of playtime will surely find it and share it to us, trust me, that's why i will keep on playing the game...

Already stopped ages ago so I voted yes but man this is a stupid decision if they go through with it, if only for the fact that GTAO on PC is still a total cesspool of cheaters.

After four years I'm pretty much done yeah. Really the only thing I do these days is shoot footage and play around in the editor.

I'll still play the same amount, which is less than it once was but the game is getting old and stale.

 

Although, is this really an "Are you done" topic or just a complaint about what RF has posted? Slide on over to the petition if that's the case (any replies about this here will go ignored)

It is just too hard to make money without some guy coming along and destroying all your hard work in an instant.

 

Do you have some statistics to backup your statement?

Because, I feel like most of the times there is a single sale that goes wrong and people are scared to sell in public since then.

 

Well, I'm not scared.

I can successfully sell product in full sessions (even with 30 players). It goes pretty well most of the times. In the last few months I got only 2 disrupted sales. No big deal, since I never sell the full stock.

 

Few tips

- From my experience, this "some guy" is attracted to closest targets. He won't get in the jet and fly all over the map in order to grief you (even if he can). So, plan your path. It's like gravity - the more close you are to the target, the stronger the force. The more close you are to the griefer - the higher the risk.

- Use document forgery (if you made a mistake of getting one) or other unprofitable business to make bait sales first, to see if they attract any griefers.

- Park your Hydra next to your business before making a sale. Start a sale and wait until the game notifies the whole session and check the map. If something is flying to your direction, go off the radar and attack first, long before they reach the destination.

- Don't sell the full stock unless it's crates. Sell in parts. Always try to get a single vehicle.

- "destroying all your hard work in an instant". Don't do hard work! Don't grind! If you feel like you are working hard - it's a sign that you are doing it wrong. Find ways to optimize your business.

- Keep in mind that the selling vehicles are indestructible before you enter them. So... if you have anyone messing around - just dont enter the vehicle and they won't be able to destroy your product.

 

Another example of how it can be used:

Is this all vehicles? A crew mate has had his buzzards destroyed at LSIA before we even got to them once. So unless it's changed since the Biker update dropped at least the buzzards can be destroyed before you get in them.

I'll still play and I'm sure there are ways around it. That being said, if it were patched I will be sure to dupe to the max to spite them

See, what you don't know is that r* know and count on other players hindering or halting your money making.

I've actually started liking the high demand bonus you get when selling a bunker in a full session..

Nah, I will keep on playing. If they patch it, i will find a workaround, if they patch my workaround ill find anotherone. When im unable to find a workaround i simply will get a lowrider on my second character and let it have children.

The day they start patching solo public lobbys they start a war they have already lost.

That's bullsh*t. I spawned beside a coke business the other day and there were two empty, untouched delivery vehicles sitting there. They were just as easy to blow up as any other vehicle.

Is there even a way to make SP lobbies on XB1 anymore?

I know the playlist method was patched.

 

I live in a shared house so dicking with the router/ethernet is a no-go for me.

I jusy have to switch lobbies a billion times and then even that doesn't always result in a small lobby of friendlies :(

Agreed. I spawned recently at the desert airstrip in the middle of what appeared to be an NPC race around the runways, with crowds and photographers. I didn't even know what was going on until I blew them up, followed by an angry CEO chase after me. I had stumbled into a CEO car retrieval job, but they could all be destroyed before the CEO arrived.

No.

 

Minimum required of players to connect to Ad-Hawk/DisruptLogistics/SecuroServ.(saying 25 players)

 

+ spontaneous instacombustion for all supplies/deliveries items if you lag out.

Good tips, I'm not sure about the delivery vehicles being indestructible though.

 

I'm not sure pushing a Boxville with an APC is a good idea, the APC is very slow .... Why not an MOC cab or a Brickade? They are better suited for this kind of task ;)

I tryied hydra cannon on Planes, Boxville and Trashmasters.

 

Bikes are pretty vulnerable.

Also, any vehicle that flips on its side will be destroyed.

 

So, its possible to destroy the vehicle by pushing it in order to flip. However, missles alone can't usually flip the vehicle. You need to physically push it.

 

That's bullsh*t.

 

Check the video for proof.

 

Why not an MOC cab or a Brickade?

 

I tried both. Personally, I find APC easier in terms of turning. You can drive the curve without losing speed. Also, the MOC hauler is not that good in terms of reversing. APC can reverse faster. Brickade is ok, but it's not armored

In a closed society where everybody's guilty, the only crime is getting caught. In a world of thieves, the only final sin is stupidity.

H.S.T.

 

I believe R* is too incompetent to pull this kind of move, but the fact we're discussing solutions like this and not dismissing them speaks how bad R* is treating GTA players and how greedy this company is.
