Recommended Posts

So i recently got back into gtao after a couple years and have been grinding for cash for 3 or 4 weeks now and have accumulated a facility, hanger, bunker, coke, meth and an MOC

 

Do i stay the course...get cash biz then a nightclub? Or should i splurge now to buy Oppressor MK I or a Deluxo and give myself a break?

 

I still dont have anything CEO related...

Ive unlocked 6 research items ... most exciting is incindiary rounds so far

 

I still need the moc command center and a hanger workshop (for my buzzard)

Nightclub then Terrorbyte. The counterfeit money factory is third business after Cocaine and meth, and not very good in itself. 

 

Hangar worshop does nothing special for Buzzard beside custom paintjob...you cannot modify the weapons/armor level of your Buzzard for example. 

 

"Unlocked 6 research items" ah...good luck with the bunker research.

Cool...so right now i have like $1m

 

So save up rest and grab a night club...should i get warehouse floors and techs before a terrorbyte (to establish some passive income)? Or just do nightclub, terrorbyte then ultimately oppressor mk ii...

My end game was a nightclub with bunker, warehouse, coke, meth, and cash. That will make you the most money per hour. 

 

I ended up buying weed and forgery just to collect the safe awards for a full sale. 

 

With the first five and afk over night/whenever I can I’ve never been without money since.

 

Hope it helps!

I should add to my comment that sometimes you need a little patience to get the money you want. But it’ll come over time.

After doing a heist and a couple deliveries last night im up to $2.7m

 

Do i buy warehouse floors, techs or equip upgrade first? Its kinda confusing ... im thinking 4 techs to have all my biz working for the nightclub ... then equip upgrade, then warehouse floors

 

Finally ill buy the othe mc biz when i get the rest in order

 

Im waiting til tomorrow anyway...maybe mc biz or nightclubs will go on sale again

I could afford a deluxo or khanjali right now tho...its been a while since i've bought a new toy

There’s no point in buying nightclub techs if you don’t have the businesses to run from them.... 

You need to buy the ceo warehouse (or hanger), bunker, and MC coke, meth and counterfeit cash first. Then buy the nightclub. But you only need to buy storage and upgrades for the nightclub to see the benefits from it. At that point I would then upgrade the bunker as it makes good money also. Then upgrade the MC businesses. 

 

Im only running my nightclub and bunker sales and I’m never without enough money to buy what I want. 

 

Focus your money on the things that make you money first. Fully upgrade them. Even if you don’t use them all at once. That way if a double money week happens you can immediately reap the benefits of it. 

 

Then you can waste your money on the other sh*t. 

 

Ive already made a 100 mil from my nightclub alone. And I’m not even pushing that hard. 

 

Granted I only have anywhere from 2 to 10 million in my bank at a time. But that’s because I spend my money like a trust fund kid with no father figure.... ;)

Buy storage floors and enough techs to run the 4 businesses first. Then buy the upgrades on the nightclub. Then buy a cash business. Then max our all the techs and upgrades for the club. At that point you should be laughing. You could wait until they go on sale. But who knows when that’ll happen. I’d probably wait the day and see though.

Thanks man!

 

Is the 5th warehouse floor of any use if i only have 4 biz?

 

Do 4 techs have any benefit if i only have one warehouse floor?

 

If mc biz go on sale tomorrow should i buy cash instead? I can afford to buy and fully upgrade cash right now...

I should add that if you’re willing to keep grinding the delivery stuff I’d buy the cash business first. I’m sure if you have the time it’d pay off more money. 

 

Im just tired of them. I’m at the point where I want max money for little effort. Nightclub is best for that. 

The nightclub shines by making money for you whilst doing nothing. 

 

I would just keep building the nightclub with whatever money you have. Eventually it’ll pay for itself and then some.

 

Buy the techs first. They get you the product. If you don’t have enough storage you will just have to sell more often. But then you can use that money to max out you’re storage. 

 

With 5 techs and all storage. I can sell all maxed out for 1.6 mil minus the 100 grand for tony. 

 

Its best however to sell once the top five businesses are full (you can only have 5 techs working) That’s around 800000ish I believe.

Yes, it's more storage space, but you're better off investing in 5 businesses for 5 techs to fill the space you have faster before expanding storage. 

 

Yes, the products are not separately stored on different floors. More floors just means more overall storage.

 

I would. More businesses = more product to sell. 

 

I'm running Bunker, Coke, Meth and Cash, and have shut down Weed and Forgery. That plus nightclub sale once a day is enough running around, and the profit on weed and forgery is very poor for the effort involved unless it's a double money week.

 

Buy the Terrorbyte as soon as you can afford to (especially if on sale), run 5 client jobs to get the discount (alternating with VIP jobs Headhunter and Sightseer during cooldown), and buy the Oppressor II. OP II is THE best grinding tool. You can get around the map fast, run solo MC sales for almost everything if you have to (barring the dreaded PO vans which are just too slow to run 3 by yourself in 30 minutes), and do Client Jobs and VIP work quickly and efficiently. Buzzard will work, Thruster if you must, but OP II is the easiest vehicle to control and hop on and off, and it stores and is upgraded in the Terrorbyte so it's always right where you need it. It's super quick to call in as MC, and still good if you're doing CEO.

 

If you can get a couple of grinding friends to help then MC sales can go very quickly. I learned last night that if you have invited everyone to your business and they are in the building before the sale, then you're very likely to get duffel bag deliveries, which are the quickest. 3-4 players on OP IIs with duffel bags and you're done with the sale in 3-5 minutes. You each help each other, and everyone's getting around 35k just for helping. Always promote your prospects to a position (Vice President, Roadmaster etc.), as they get more money for helping. 

 

Occasionally a nightclub product may stop producing. If this happens, un-assign a couple of techs and switch them, that should kickstart production again.

 

You don't need to buy the Mule delivery van (unless you want to). If there's too much for the Speedo to carry then you can use the Pounder (as long as you have one) which is faster.

 

The Pounder with missile barrage on top will not fit under certain bridges such as the one up in the NW mountains near a tunnel. If you hit this problem, find a route to avoid the low bridge.

^^^^Good advice

 

ive only ever had the nightclub coke not produce. I usually keep the techs the same and just shutdown and restart the coke business after every nightclub sale. I’ve not had a problem since. 

I have the del perro nightclub and I moved my coke business only a few blocks away for this reason

Remember the cash business has to be upgraded(845+880+273+456...), for that price you better buy a vehicle warehouse and make money actively. 

 

In one hour of car export+VIP jobs(so 3 cars and 3 Headhunter) you can make like 360k. Just my opinion but I think its less penible than MC delivery missions. And thats 100% soloable. 

 

I would wait some discounts on MC businesses to buy the cash business, in 2018 it was discounted several times IIRC.

You don't need to upgrade Biker businesses to feed the Nightclub, stock ones will contribute just as much. I wouldn't bother running Cash actively, but it's worth having as an extra income stream for the club.

^^^Wise investment. You won’t be broke for long. Just max all the money making stuff first. Doesn’t really matter which route you go.

I’d buy the pounder and fully upgrade it. Then just sell when you have enough stock to use it instead of the Speedo van.... I don’t like the van. I feel like I’m wasting my time using it. 

Just be careful when you are driving the pounder. It gets stuck easily over little humps and such. The up and atomizer is a great tool to have with it just to get it unstuck

The Atomizer is super useful and will save many of your deliveries on sale day if the vehicle gets stuck. A worthy purchase.

 

And it's great to see a newbie who understands the importance of buying businesses first in order to make money in the long run. You're on the right track!

Thx! 😁

 

I made a million bucks last night! I almost have enough for the nightclub equip upgrade (to dble my nightclub production)

 

Then I have to decide on ceo office, terrorbyte, more warehouse floors or a cash biz and 5th tech as my next $1m purchase...

I also want to upgrade my speedo before my first club sale

I’d stay away from the crate stuff. Maybe just a couple small warehouses that way you don’t lose too much money if something goes wrong. I.e griefer or titan glitch. 

 

Your best bet would be an office with a car warehouse for import export. If you want active income. 

 

Id make sure you fully upgrade your nightclub when you can as it’s still the easiest passive money maker. 

I’d add that the terrorbyte is great for sourcing stuff.... but you need the 5th garage floor in the nightclub I believe

I got the equip upgrade in the nightclub, then I bought the terrorbyte..now I realize im still far from affording oppressor mkii and i'm thinking i maybe should've got cash biz and my 5th tech instead ...

 

I'm sitting at $700k atm

 

The hanger work is slowwwww...i have 10 narc crates...will take me a while to grind another 15

 

By the time i steal supplies for 3 biz and max my club popularity i usually dont have any time left to source Ron's crates

 

Maybe i should buy cash then start buying supplies and use the time for hanger crates instead?

Hanger is the worst money maker. It’s really only fun as something different to do every now and then. 

 

Always buy supplies. You make more money doing other things to offset that cost. 

 

Same thing goes goes for the nightclub as far as promoting. It’s a waste of time. The money is in the warehouse part of it. I don’t even waste my time on promoting. 

 

The terrorbyte will come in useful for sourcing cars. Get yourself a vehicle warehouse and a cargobob for grabbing and delivering cars. That’s the best active money maker. (You can do all the terrorbyte side jobs in between selling cars) 

 

Buy all your supplies and let them work for you while you’re doing the other stuff. Then sell them all off when you finish “working”. 

 

Nightclub is good for an extra million or so every couple nights of AFK

I bet you’d make more money grinding the double money contact missions right now than the BS hanger crates. “Rockford Roll” only takes a few mins to finish and it pays $36660

I'm off tomorrow and wednesday...hoping to grind contact missions and deliveries until i can afford the oppressor mk2...lol

 

I feel like if i buy 4th and 5th levels of storage right now that it'll be a setback in my goal to buy the oppressor

You won’t regret it. Doesn’t matter which route you go. Just spend the money you have generating income first. Then you can waste it away. 

 

The mk2 is a useful tool.... but nothing that can’t be done by other things until you can afford that luxury. 

 

Just keep pluging away. Eventually you’ll get everything you’re after. 👍🏻

Just wait. It’ll go on sale at some point. I’ve been waiting months for the vigilante to go on sale..... pretty sure it never happens at this point.
