What hints would you give yourself in 2013?

[G U M M I]

Heh. Well, number 1 would be never buy an apartment at that sh*tty ass crack house Del Perro heights, because that's where everyone lives, not fitting of someone who wants seclusion.

 

2. Buy yourself a trusty super car, in my case, the Osiris. It's sexy, and it'll dust motherf*ckers with sheer agility and finesse.

 

3. Max all skills as soon as possible. Being limited to under 1000 rounds with a low shooting level sucks balls. So used to having 9000.

 

4. Make as much money as you can and retire early, because there's nothing but shark card content, and public session bullsh*t in the future.

[UKPortista]

Savour every thrilling moment of every Special Crate Drop (which, to be fair, I did) because at some point in 2015 R* will pull them and won't replace them with anything remotely exciting. So be prepared for a huge void in your GTAO life.

[AredTarg]

Good Hints lol

[hugh750]

i would also likely tell my 2013 self for when heists does drop be prepared for long waits for anyone to join.

and also to dread the 2017 drop of the oppressor (to me it's become the new griefer vehicle of choice).

[Tails Prower]

If I were to go back to 2013 I'd probably have this as my outcome.

 

1. Never register for GTA Online, I had no idea I'd still be playing this all these years later.

 

2. Be a ruthless dictator, I am way too nice to people in this game and should have been prepared better for the PVP aspects of this game.

 

3. That i'd find myself doing stupid adversary modes that takes ages to play through some times.

 

4. Never spend more than 20 bucks on a video game...I'll let you all figure out which game that line is from because it's still one of the best I played on PC.

[HonorableMan]

Chill out. Fighting other players doesn't make you any money.

Get a Buzzard.

[Yellow Dog with Cone]

1. Don't.

 

2. Bother.

 

3. Seriously.

 

4. Don't.

[WannaDJ]

1. Do not waste your money in dumb shiz!
2. Do not trust anyone, kill or be killed!
3. NEVER buy a sharkcard!
4. Don't sell your cars you worked your butt to get just to buy a new one, instead grind a bit!

Honestly the list could go on, haha!

[The Ost]

1. Save your money, the Adder can wait

 

2. Just buy the Buzzard and nothing else

 

3. When the game gets glitched and we get lots of money, buy every single thing.

[Watain]

Don't burn yourself out on this game. Play and enjoy the game as much as you like throughout 2013-'14. Take a break during 2015-'16. Pick up the game once more in October 2016 when the Bikers DLC is finally released. Enjoy the now war-zoned, roudy and cringey 12-year-old's game for as long as you can. Retire the game during the summer of 2017. Nothing but rehased sh*t coming your way anyway.

[Zarpy]

1) Dont buy sh*tty pegasus vehicles

 

2) Glitch money like f*ck, because even if you think 100m is a lot, ITS REALLY NOT.

 

3) Think carefully about garage space, more will come in due time

100M is really not a lot these days, GTAO economy has definitely changed over the years

[Ker Juice]

Create a Youtube channel solely dedicated to Grand Theft Auto Online making vids purely on speculation of rumors & upcoming DLC, i.e the MrBossFTW formula. I would be making over 300k a year now. That lucky bastard

 

Learn how to pilot a Lazer ASAP lol

 

Practice RnG tactics and live in deathmatches

Exactly, 100m won't get you everything you want. I think 500m is a good amount to get spend freely and get what you want

[Verstappen]

Dont put that new car in your full garage there! It'll overwrite your Monroe you have there instead of moving it to your other garage!

 

This was when the Monroe was one of the better Sport Classics to choose for a race.

Yup. Now he is a wannabe DJAkademiks.

[secrecy274]

Save yourself the headaches and don't play any of the heists with randoms.

 

Granted, I probably didn't own the game in 2013...

And 4 years later, still the sexiest.

[The Wandering Hunter]

don't grind anything. glitch instead.

 

i did rr for like a day back then

[Geisterfaust]

Don't play it after 2015. Watch even more foreign art-house movies, start learning the third language earlier and practise more, listen to more music and visit more live performances, start learning the mechanical skills you always thought about. Don't waste your time on this game.

Choose life.
Choose a job.
Choose a career.
Choose a family,
Choose a f*cking big television
Choose washing machines, cars,
Compact disc players, and electrical tin openers.
Choose good health, low cholesterol
And dental insurance.
Choose fixed-interest mortgage repayments.
Choose a starter home.
Choose your friends.
Choose leisure wear and matching luggage.
Choose a three piece suite on hire purchase
In a range of f*cking fabrics.
Choose DIY and wondering who you
Are on a Sunday morning.
Choose sitting on that couch watching mind-numbing
Sprit-crushing ga me shows
Stuffing f*cking junk food into your mouth.
Choose rotting away at the end of it all,
Pishing you last in a miserable home
Nothing more than an embarrassment to the selfish,
f*cked-up brats
You have spawned to replace yourself.
Choose your future. Choose life.

[Spectre "2K"]

don't blow 400K on that eclipse towers apartment

[Lamborghini1335]

Pay someone to give me billions of dollars. Now that that's over with, now I can enjoy the game a hell of a lot better than 4 years ago when money meant spending time doing missions.... Now it's spent helping friend get stuff done.

[junkpile]

1. Wait for the next gen version

2. Wait for the next gen version

3. Wait for the next grn version

4. Wait for the next gen version

[The Jungz]

Don't buy this game.

[idonknowhow]

I started playing this game since 2015 spring on ps4. My advice to myself is don't buy ps4, buy second hand ps3 second hand disc, learn to mod and mod the hell of it then buy ps4 pro and transfer.

"Dude, GTAO is actually pretty decent, try it out"

Bought GTAV on release, never bothered with online until 2016.

[mrfonzius]

1.) Get this game asap.

 

2.) Try to go for crate drops and armored trucks as often as you can, they will be gone sooner or later.

 

3.) NEVER buy a sharkcard!

Same here though slughtly earlier. I only really started to play it online because V came with my PS4 in one package, which I bought for the F1 game in advance. So I had a PS4 doing nothing so put the disk in, replayed storymode casually and found out about heists coming soon. Transferred lvl 3 character and started few days before heists.
