Couldnt they just be saying last day to gear up before import/export because the sale ends?

You took the words out of my mouth. But I hope that's not the case and the dlc will drop tomorrow :D

 

R* say certain things for a reason, if that was the case they would have never mentioned export/import.

So does that tweet block out the possibility of an actual announcement specifically for the update later on in the day?

They still can make some info in 3hours from now but I guess they will drop tomorrow all info and a trailer with the release

Say we were not getting a trailer for today (does not matter much seeing as the DLC comes out tomorrow), but can someone point out to me the positives from bringing out a trailer the day of release, from a business/PR point of view...

Day of release means it is already available. Not every GTA player watches Reddit/GTA Forums/etc. People will start to see or hear about it through Youtube or the xbox/ps4 dashboards.

The consensus is that rockstar thinks it will sell more shark cards because not announcing a date will keep casual players from grinding and saving...or something like that. Feel free to correct me if im off, but that's what I've seen suggested.

Someone said this in previous pages

lot of players are playing other games right now, it's better for them to put a trailer that says "Play Now" than a trailer that says "Comeback next week or in the next few days" as it might be forgotten about.

No offense, but that makes zero sense.

People who don't follow this topic or the game that often will suddenly find out they have no money for new stuff that came out of seemingly nowhere and buy shark cards.

Another hour went by, and yet no word from R*...

You spoke way too soon lol.

 

Yep...

I don't think they would word it like that if it was the case.

If today is the last day to gear up for import/export, then it only means that import/export is coming tomorrow.

 

But of course we're talking about R*, it could mean anything at this point.

Saying last day to gear up for Import/export means the dlc will be there tomorrow.

Well, it would be odd for them to say that without putting an announcement up in 30 minutes. I want more screens!

At least, R* updated the Twitter with something about the coming DLC.

What do you guys recommend to make money fast? Is there a glitch I haven't heard of? Right now I've just been grinding CEO crates and selling money glitched cars for $150k each every 48 minutes between crates. Anything more efficient?

Pacific Heist glitch. I learned about it the day after Christmas last year. Best GTA Christmas present ever. Made over $200M not including the clubhouse glitch money from this last October when Bikers was introduced which was another $150M until GTA crashed my PS4 and forced me to restart. You need two people who can host the Pacific Bank Heist back and forth so that two people get paid 50/50 at a time while the other two get nothing then the next round the pair of players that got nothing get 50/50 and the other two who got paid first get nothing. $625K per hour for everyone straight to the heist every time without setups.

Yeah I kinda tried to do that couple pages ago:

 

 

 

 

So , i guess more information is the thing that going to be on the 13th , not the update itself , and the update going to be on the 15th , that the only thing that does make sense in this moment , because they can't take back what they said about the details coming soon.

Info on the 12th, update on the 13th.

I can see that happen. I think R* still tries to figure out the best way to deliver updates (aka best way to sell sharcards).

 

 

R*F when asked about new ban policy said:

Management changes and opinion shifts. Some people prefer chaos and others prefer order.

So lets say new management shows up and says "lets try something new here"

 

So we had a change with bikers - they never delivered a trailer so late before right? Clearly they wanted to try something new. Its safe to assume they will try other approach next time.

 

What if this time management says "hey let's see what reaction will we get after giving them info, trailer, pics, everything at the same time just day before DLC drops?"

 

simple "oh and btw you can have ALL of this TOMORROW" *drop mic* moment for them

 

Regular GTA player will be AMAZED with special vehicles, big garage, all of it. No time for him to grind. He will have to buy some shark cards.

 

I can see there reasons. Most players don't know about leaks you know

 

 

 

edit:

 

Is SocialClub down now?

For me too, dodgy...

 

R* just posted on twitter/FB "LAST DAY to gear up for Import/Export." I bet everyone is refreshing newswire page, waiting for more news/pics/trailer

 

edit2: its back on.

Here i come with the obligatory "gonna laugh if it's just the last day of sales and the update is announced for 12/20"

 

Naw, it really does seem to be tomorrow. That tweet, combined with how sure Mach seems seal it for me. I know he'll say he doesn't kniw anything we don't, but we know you do tho Mach ;)

Accurate. Maybe they saw a larger amount of players log in the day that Bikers dropped since they released the trailer the same day as the DLC. Fresh on the minds. Instant hype. Instant access.

If you have 3 buds, pac stan. I've been grinding with my friends the past week, i'm now on 16mill.

Hmm, nobody on my friends list really cares about GTA enough to grind it that are always on and the people that'll play are almost never on so it's kinda rip for multiple person methods.

 

Got an Office/ $1m? Be a CEO/VIP and just do CEO work.

That's what I have been doing + selling a $150k car every once in a while, just wondering if there's anything more efficient solo.
