Didn’t realise you were on Xbox one...I may take you up on that 

I rarely bump into anyone else from here even though I tend to use the "join other crew members" quite a lot. We've been in the same session a few times and I see Mattygansta AFKing a lot & Big Molio every now and again but never come across anyone else that I have seen regularly posting here.

Been trying to join 3 separate casino heists, where each host would leave at the planning board. This seems too good to be true, so I blame Rockstar's sh*t servers for timing me out. Left me hanging in the sh*t clouds for about 20 minutes total before rebooting the game twice.

 

I have no problem in freemode and DM sessions, so why must this, the recent holy grail of GTAO be so f*cked?

Yea. It does not help either when the npcs aimbot is hysterically accurate. It's incredibly hard enough.

 

It's easy. Go in a Buzzard wearing your own scuba gear, Ignore the enemies on land, just take out the enemy Buzzard and the boats, then land the Buzzard on a rocky outcrop, dive to get the first crate. Swim back to the rocky outcrop, equip an assult rifle, take out the single aimbot in each enemy Buzzard, then get in your Buzzard and fly back to the arcade. The enemy Buzzards just fly around impotent and swear at you. The pilot has no weapons, only the guy in the back you already disposed of.

 

On the second run, usually you will get left alone to dive and start flying back, then just outrun the bad guys in your Buzzard.

 

This really is not a difficult mission at all. Shooting the aimbots in the Buzzards is no harder than shooting the guy in the back of the cop copters.

Thanks for the info.

F not being able to tell how much money is currently in your arcade safe. Also F R* for locking manufacturer shirts behind business battles that only spawn every half hour. They should be giving that stuff out for free right now, not making us toil and grind for them.

[Sentinel Driver]

What does C* do?

 

There's a glitch in the casino heist where you can not grab gold from one trolly, you lose like 300k in profit if this glitch happens

C*: let's NOT patch it

 

There's a shortcut in the casino heist which allows you to save a couple of seconds using gruppe sechs

C*: ADD SOME ROCKS TO BLOCK IT!!!!!!!!!! NO SHORTCUTS ALLOWED REEEEEEEEEE

 

I'd rather grind bogdan for money than do casino heist now. Get your f*cking priorities straight you greedy c* f*cks instead of pissing on players who are trying to make honest money in the game

This is the deadest game of 2020. And these half-assed event weeks aren't doing it any justice, either. Good thing is, better games are coming out this year.

[J-Scott-D]

I lost my rest mode snow from April Fool's Day this evening. Boooo! lol.

 

Not the game's fault. The PS4 had one of it's usual errors.

Not a GTA gripe, but it's too small of a thing to be posting on the RDO subreddit. Last night there was a daily challenge to kill 10 flying birds in RDO, I was at 7/10 or so when a flock of ducks appeared. The daily challenges reset a second before I killed the last one needed to complete the challenge. What are the f*cking odds?

These event weeks really are cutting my playtime drastically. A good event makes all the difference and they know that.. They either don’t want people grinding lucrative stuff with double cash like bunkers or I/E, or they aren’t able to easily run things working from home maybe? Either way, they need to get the sh*t together and improve the events, add more OW races and add the creator tools for them and a couple new vehicles into a small, non themed update. Wouldn’t hurt them to add an actual good motorcycle for once, or another jet like an F-14 or more faithful F-35. I would be trying to rush an update out if I were them, they’re missing out on increased MTX sales for sure.

Seriously, how hard is it for R* to add a simple timer as to when the next business battle will start. They've done it before with the old crate drops (15 min, 10 min, 3 min, etc.). They really love making online as inconvenient as possible.

[slowburn29]

Log in, play some repos

 

Spend that money replacing sniper ammo lost to that one where your special ammo capacity deletes your non special ammo

 

Already had to get rid of my hollow point ammo, now the explosive sniper? Boooo rockstar you suck

 

And then I think of all this nights I left my poor Xbox running research for that sh*t

 

Log out. I've never wanted to like a game so bad but couldn't. The love is gone

And for events and challenges too.

I swear, 90% of the time I spawn in a lobby I end up waiting almost 30 minutes for something sh*tty as Headshot Kills Challenge or Hot Property.

[HamwithCheese]

Oh good alien survivals wow nice literally everyone hates them and you bring them back. Are they even boosted this week? I didn't see them mention that 

 

Edit: In other news saints row 3 is getting a total remaster. Now that's sh*t I like hearing.

Obviously you aren't paying Red Dead online. Oh that's right, a game has to actually work for people to play it.

They haven't even upped the frequency of the events like they used to.

This is what people were talking about in the other thread,  either no bb’s were happening or they were bb cargo or bb other than “event”.  Back on 360/ps3 during event weekends only the special crates dropped, so it was something like random-random-special crate inbound rinse n repeat.  The event timers also went from 12min to 5min, so if nothing happened in 5 - 10 min you knew the lobby was bugged.  Now I don’t know if event frequency is tied to players doing ceo/vip/MC stuff but I’ve had lobbies where no event happened and I couldn’t start anything ceo/vip.

I miss the old, legit deathmatches.  So tired of seeing the 10,000 RP/cash ones.

"Alien Survivals" sounds like something out of the Saints Row series, yet it's just a sh*tty GTA Online mode.

 

 

It's not even the right kind of alien survival either, we want to fight aliens, not fight as aliens, that's what the Destroy All Humans! series is for.

What's worse is that you can't even select the aliens in the Creator. You could make an awesome science fiction themed Survival with the Neon block props and the laser weapons otherwise.

You can barely pick any different type of enemies in the survival creator. The capture creator has a much wider variety of possible enemies, and that game mode doesn't even need NPC enemies.

 

-edit- misread it, and that's not what you meant at all, but my point still stands. The survival creator is too limited.

Shame they wont ever give us the contact mission creator. We would be able to make custom jobs and would never have to go in public lobbies again.

The first thing that always comes to mind with Contact Mission Creator is that I'd totally make a mission feautinrg a lot of those money crates from Los Santos Connection.

Which is probably exactly why we haven't got it.

I'm playing through GTA V again and boy is it fun, much more than GTA Online currently is.

And it's a shame, because it's not sh*t like some people say. Some personal highlights for me would be Heists, The Doomsday Heist, After Hours, The Diamond Casino & Resort, that was high quality DLC for the game; with those it felt like they were actually trying, and it felt much more like Story Mode. It's so sad because the game has so much underutilized or badly utilized potential, it could do the things it does 10 times better if Rockstar put more resources into it, and Story Mode and the DLC I mentioned are the proof of that.

But I'm glad Rockstar is going into that direction with Red Dead Online, and I sure hope they'll take it even further with the next installation in the series.

For the vehicle import mission, I thought you had to have a certain lobby player count to not get enemies come after you... What the hell. Had to drive all the way up to Paleto just to get a Mamba, and it got to $4k damages already so I just decided to blow it up, and thought that it would of been destroyed eventually by another player anyways.

When selling, yes. In that case, just one other player outside of your organization is needed to not get enemies to come after you.

With the exception of completing the Forza event, I spent all my free time in GTA trying to get the damn shirts and I yet to encounter a single Business Battle. FME after FME ...
