Alright, since you struggle with more then a few words:
- You read what you want it to say, not what his tweet actually says

- I dont see how somebody agreeing that it should be patched translates too "this proves my point that its not intended", as much as i respect Tez2 hes not a R* developer/manager/person/anything, his opinion isnt somehow automatically 'gta law', if i dislike chocolate and so does my neighbor, does that suddenly make it a fact that chocolate is terrible? i beg to differ.
- If you'd bother to read the 'cringe essay' i actually have a pretty good explanation for that patch, based on what i see ingame, but i guess you simply dont care.

Anyway it was absolutely great having this conversation with you, i always love having some high level back & forth with an educated mind, that said i didnt mean to diminish your b*tching or anything like that, im just legit surprised somebody calls people who invest time into optimizing the jobs they play 'garbage' & 'noob', but i guess thats just because (by your logic) im garbage too. Heading off to steal a heli now, hugs and kisses.

quit sticking with that damn chopper, make a change for once.

 

I actually really hope they patch this tbh. For regular players, it's pretty easy to take a car and go via the sewers should they want a safe and easy method of doing the heist. If they're willing to risk getting shot to go for the elite challenge, they should possess the skills to drive like they're elite players. Helicopter as a easy cop out to both be a somewhat "safe" route whilst also giving a huge boost towards the elite challenge really cheapens the elite challenge and feels like giving the finger to the guys who can actually make the drive for elite..

Thanks for understanding and making a good point. What you said in your post is exactly the type of vibe I meant to give to others who read my post, but clearly they were the ones that got offended for some reason.

Don't bother. It's just another new account who probably made it to flex or something like that. Side effect of Epic, I guess.

This doesn't apply to people who saw a heli video on youtube, though. I have respect for people who use the fastest routes and strats to achieve the best possible time or to make the most amount of money. However i don't have any respect for the other 99.914% who just take the easy way out of trouble by going to the sewers where they truly belong or by using a helicopter because DatMrRoss.4doe said that it's the only way to get the job done.

This is a 100x more fair and logical then what the other dude is saying. I can respect this view (some people really do overdo the tricks) the other guys view not so much.
(id just give more people the benefit of the doubt, but thats semantics)

Just for the record (considering my earlier post says i got heli tricks for bscly everything but i also agree with you to a certain extend) i always ask host if they are okay with me getting non-standard vehicles or whatever, if not thats totally cool and i certainly wont try force those tactics onto people, im more than happy to help them do it normally or trough some other method. The thing that ticked me off is that i wont give people sh*t for whatever tactic they want to use, everything is open for debate, the guy i just had a back and forth with seems to work differently, his way or you are garbage noob, lol.

I had VIP SUV wheels on my regular Infernus for a while. Not perfect, but they looked the part. Not sure they'd work here though...

[Standard Deluxe 59]

Y'all would hate heisting with me. I don't even know where the helicopter pops up, I'll sit in the sewers or railroad tunnel while the wanted level goes away while I go and grab a drink and drive leisurely up to Paleto.

With the nightclub income being double this week, I started thinking about how much of a flop that update was and what could've made it better. Ignoring the Dipsh*t MKII, one of the things that could've made it better would be more variety in the type of club we could own. We could have gotten the generic dance club that we did, a rock and roll club or a Studio 54 style club as options or tied to the club's location so that there was a purpose to visiting other clubs. As it stands right now, everyone's club is exactly the same save for decor variations. 

Why wasn't the Bahama Mama's interior used? They had that place all built up and ready, but did NOTHING with it at the perfect opportunity. Rockstar's priorities are screwed up, massively.

The worst thing was that there was no meaningful gameplay connected to the club itself, just a few pointless new actions, and awards for dancing on the spot for 10 hours etc.. No DJing or creating your own sets to increase popularity, no competitive dance-offs, or even button mashing for "combos" to hit targets like actual dance games, and the ticket price at the door isn't even connected to your income. The storage areas have nothing to do with dancing, and the popularity missions are yet more tedious fetch quests that pay nothing. Even collecting a celebrity just put another NPC model in your bar until you change sessions. You could have had missions inside the club to protect them from crazy fans, other players, police raids, drug deals, fights, you name it, but no, you just driven them there and that's it. Or how about cocktails? You can go behind the bar and serve one drink, imagine if you could try all kinds of different ingredients, with successes boosting the popularity of the club and raising the money taken. So much they could have done.

If on the next gen they allow me to create a set and upload myself I’m all over that

I don't know why they didn't open it and Tequila-la as the public clubs since both of them already have interiors. I know there were a few furnishings in Bahama Mamas that lacked collisions, but I'm sure that's a minor thing that could be easily fixed.

Yeah, lots of unfulfilled potential that could've come from After Hours. As hyped up as it was, the content it had was lacking severely in the dynamics and replayability departments.

That would be nice, then I could open up my rock and roll club. Even if the decor won't match the music lol.

If you can't follow simple onscreen instructions you suck at the game. Period. Git f*cking gud and grow some eyes.

The people who can't follow the simplest instructions and fail the easiest Contact Missions and Heists because of it are the same kind of people who destroy cargo because "tHe gAmE ToLd tHeM tO".

 

It's true, somehow.

I get stuck in the clouds so many times lately, this is getting really annoying.

[SummerFreeze]

I f*cking hate people who AFK in the weekly x2/x3 adversary mode.

 

In my opinion Hunting Pack (Remix)  is the best adversary mode in the game, but it's an absolute waste of time when half the opposing team is AFK.

It's even worse when something like Sumo or Over time Rumble/Shootout goes on promotion. It seems like two thirds of the players are afk.

Same people that download a mod menu because they have 0 skill at the game and have to resort to cheating.

 

Like I was doing Server Farm and this dude (obviously cheating, super jump, god mode, etc) failed landing the Akula 5 times and had the audacity to ask me to fly LOL

Your sad menu doesn't grant you any skills I'm afraid.

Can anyone explain how some players have 4 digit levels? I saw a player with level 104x ( 7 or 8 i don't remember exactly ). How is this possible? I don't believe even if the player is on the game from ps3/x360 days, such progress would be possible.

Also, from youtube videos, I see that stuff like teleport, money drops and vehicle spawn are possible, but i don't see an option for anything like this.

 

I AM GRINDING MY ASS OFF AND I HAVE NOT EVEN REACHED LEVEL 100 WHAT THE ACTUAL FUKK!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHY AM I HERE, JUST TO SUFFER (;_;)

 

edit : i'm just posting this because i'm butthurt about a level 1k muppet destroying my crates yesterday. i hope he gets banned

7 years old soon, that's how, lol.

 

If you can't reach level 100 while 'grinding your arse off' you're very much doing it wrong. (Not that I grind mind you, that's just not for me personally).

 

And of course you won't see teleporting, money drops and such options legitimately. That's just PC players with mod menu's cheating.

Fair play. I do agree it's a messed up way that R* created out there. It's made to cripple the newer player to promote their card sales, but alas, there are solo public methods out there so may be worth a Google for your platform and see if that proves helpful.

 

Once you find your comfort zone though, you'll soon see RP grow quicker too. And be sure to try any bonus weekly modes, this week it's Hunting Pack on 3x RP and it's basically just bumper cars, lol. I quite like that where I can smash into others and not actually ruin good races or such.

You may be surprised, but there are legit 2k rank players over there. 2x/3x RP from racing, only playing GTA for years every day for 5+ hours does that. Stay away from that mentality and you will be good, after rank 135 there is absolutely nothing. Well, the globe will change its color, that's something.

[Big Molio]

My rank (1171) is mostly from racing I would say.
