I want to believe we'll get pegasus land vehicle storage with this update but that just sounds too good to be true.

I was thinking about the storage for the mule and pounder and the patriot stretch since they seem to have abandoned pegasus.

99.999999999999% certain we'll be getting some kind of similar setup to hangars (personal aircraft) and facilities (large weaponised vehicles) for the Pounder/Mule Customs and Patriot Stretch - i.e., a special larger garage, most likely with the option to add an on-site mechanic (for an additional cost, of course!).

 

Reason being: we've got LSC-style customisation confirmed (decals, armour upgrades), but they're going to be too big to take into LSC. Likewise garage storage - you can't fit something about the size of the Brickade (Pounder) into a regular garage slot, so that means a new garage thing. I'm guessing it'll be part of the larger nightclub complex - although R* might handle it like vehicle warehouses/office garages or yachts/penthouses, where they've added multiple new property types in one update.

 

Another big question: will there be additional regular storage spaces, like those in facilities? Or is this going to be more like vehicle warehouses, where each vehicle gets a unique predetermined slot (i.e., you can only put the Ruiner 2000 in the space designated for the Ruiner 2000, and nothing else can go there) - ?

I need more car storage!!! I'd be cool with an additional 60 vehicle storage. I hate debating which cars to sell. 

Yes I could do with at least 20 more, but even then I'd have to choose carefully.

[Lonely-Martin]

I hope for trophies and awards myself. I know many don't like them, but so like aiming for these as they often mean to spread my wings and do things I might not try to learn as much if not.

 

If that makes sense to anyone.

A livery editor would be cool too. Doubt it'll ever happen, but one can wish

[LunaticPandora]

Man, I hope we get some information, ANY information by the end of this week. I feel like we are so starved for info at this point.

I'm really thinking tomorrow, but I'm not getting my hopes up

[Pizzahut]

hopefully one day we will be able to own every single vehicle in the game (yes, even an forklift or an lawnmower). getting the space that's nessecary, that would be my dream.

 

but yeah, im ready for some info soon, preferably tomorrow

[APB]

Hopefully tomorrow or Friday we get something. If not, we are likely doomed for 31st.

[Mr_Pool]

Well I have Tuesday off next week so if everything goes to plan, I'll have a pretty enjoyable day, really excited to see how this is going to work in depth. Wonder if we'll get a new app on our phone?

[WillProx]

I have nearly no doubts they will give us the info tomorrow or friday. Or I'll have a break from the internet. In the Funny Farm. Maybe even in the good room with the soft walls in it.

Next stop, tomorrow 11-12 am EST.

Actually, the Gunrunning trailer was released at 9:30 am EST just like the Doomsday Heist one, while the Smuggler's Run one even sooner, at around 9 am EST.

[YerDabbin]

I am too excited to see the info we're getting tommorow.

Your right it was early for those 2

[FuturePastNow]

Soooo back to the speculation front. There's something R* keeps saying in their recent blogs, starting with the Coming Soon to LS one. The three event week blogs after this ( one, two, three ) all reference it, too.

 

"Management is honest work, a tidy way to keep income from your more seedy ventures with Disruption Logistics, The Open Road, SecuroServ and Free Trade Shipping Co. looking clean as fresh laundry."

 

"Aggressive expansion is the key to any successful enterprise, and Nightclubs will soon provide you with a means to launder your criminal cash."

 

"The American Dream is alive and well in Los Santos, and soon your criminal businesses will have the opportunity to launder dirty cash through Nightclub businesses."

 

"Career criminals gearing up for Nightclubs and laundering opportunities through illegal businesses can make your moves now"

 

All the references to money laundering can't be an accident. I'm not sure what to make of it, but it's the speculation thread so I feel compelled to speculate somehow.

 

I think that owning a Nightclub may add another sale option to each of the businesses. So where, for example, a Biker business would have a "Sell to LS" and "Sell to Blaine" option, it'll then also have a "Sell to Nightclub" option. Perhaps this is lower profit, but eliminates the risk of the sale failing? Or perhaps it lets you use your Pounder Custom to just take a single vehicle from the business to the club, instead of driving three PostOp vans across the wilderness? I don't know. But the money laundering thing means something.

 

Edit: I guess what I'm getting at is, it really seems to me like "money laundering" isn't just flavor text for blogs, but is going to be an thing we actively do. Somehow.

I'm thinking it's going to be like this or like actual laundering where you can put money in a washing machine/vault and have it accumulate over time and that we can collect it like Vice City. But this is R* and we can't have a business DLC without some good old driving in a war zone.

I'm reminded of APB, they've done that well.

 

With a little polish, the crew emblem creator could be re purposed to add decals to vehicles, but that kind of freedom would give Take2's legal team a panic attack.

[Saul_Goodman123]

You guys think we will ever get a pogo stick?

[_Sprocket_]

More of a pondering than a speculation, but it is DLC related:

 

I can't remember the exact wording, but R* mentioned about another lost relic like the Golden Revolver. When the new Treasure Hunt begins, will it mean that the old one is gone completely? 

 

Totally asking for a friend, but I (I mean he) wouldn't want to start a second character just for the sake of them both owning said firearm.

 

As I say, totally asking for a friend...

I'm thinking it's about more raids if you don't have a way to launder money from other illegal business sales.

 

/edit

 

Sure got boring in here.

*gasp* they've unlocked the thread!

 

Now that we are here, any one know why it was mentioned by someone on YouTube that radio host and DJ Pete Tong will release informatiom about nightclubs on Friday?

This is the kind of thing I'd like it to be. The only problem I can see is the short delivery drives.

 

Say there is a nightclub in La Puerta, my Coke is only in Morningwood, that's less than a 2 mile drive, with full stock in one Pounder Custom, I could do that delivery before Ghost Org runs out. Same goes for all the city Biker businesses. Even the Chumash bunker would be just about doable with Ghost Org and off radar.

 

This could be applied to any LS nightclub location.

 

I'd like it to happen, but R*.

That will never happen. Look at what happened with MCLA - cocks and swastikas and that was just a racing game. It would be so much worse on GTA, all the edgy losers with their edgy organization names would be going around in cars brandishing all manner of nudity. GTA already catches enough flak as is for them to implement that.

LOL I remember see all that sh*t on MCLA. Kids will do anything to be eDgY. Anyways, I almost forgot about this thread. ITs been sh*t in the sense of what is possible. I hope its consistent on what it really means to run the club. As a warehouse or an actual representation of leading a business. Don't mind if ts a front, better if we are able to interact.

Still, give me some fully grown bad-ass beards. I'm tired of these scuffy beards. Let's hope!

Oh baby my favourite thread is back

 

OT: I’m pretty we’ll get a trailer Thursday with a release date for 24th July 

[Maeve]

I discovered something which might lead to some Nightclub DLC information. If we don't get any information tomorrow, I'll be listening to Pete Tong on BBC Radio. A production runner called Tom Riste-Smith commented on one of Black Madonna's tweets. She was talking about how she has no information to share about the upcoming DLC. Tom commented "Listen to Pete Tong on Friday.. Might be some info.. :p".  Pete Tong is one of the BBC Radio DJ's, specialising in classic house, club music, Ibiza dance tracks, and so on. I also know that Pete Tong and Rob Da Bank work on the Forza Horizon soundtracks, which feature a lot of nightclub-esque music on their tracklist. I think we'll be seeing information tomorrow in the form of a trailer, but we also might get to hear some of the music on Friday. I'll be sure to listen out for you all if I catch the stream.

yup it's too late lol. For those not in the UK I think you can stream the show off of the BBC website, once it's happening or afterwards. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0b9w40t

Very nice find. I wonder what kind of tracks we get. I'm hoping for some Deadmau5 or some great minimal house tracks.
