Thursday ain't over until the Newswire is posted, and I've got the theory that given how big the news of a free to purchase announcement is, I'd personally also start to hint at a major update coming in a few weeks to keep the new guys hooked.

 

The; "Come out swinging" approach.

That sounds pretty smart, hopefully we get something today.

It would be nice to get some new Aston Martins/Dewbauchee cars in the next DLC.

Hey, um, I don't know if I've fallen foul of a glitch or if Rockstar are up to something, but the game has flawlessly kicked me from Online and has put my Online character and his gear in single player, no load screens or anything, just boop, now have single player levels of NPC's and ped vehicles spawning in. The map is still the Online version of the map, but I can access Michaels house and such, I'll explore a little more til something major happens.

Now this is happening to you. Same here  this happened to me  before multiple times

At least, we now know why we can't have triple money on bunker business because of technical issues.

It's a weird one though, given how crates at 2x can give more than $4.4m. 

 

Don't get me wrong, 2x bunkers is always tasty, just weird if the game had a moment because of the bunker, lol.

Still no newswire yet at 11:46am.

It must be some kind of relation to "Time" and "Investment Cost".

 

Bunker; $375,000 gets you a full Bunker in around just under 12 hours and you can make money on the side from other businesses, jobs and heists.

 

Special Cargo: A large warehouse costs anywhere from $222k - $666k AND requires dedicated gameplay across about the same amount of time depending on how many players you have helping, meaning the only way you can make money while doing those is from letting passive businesses cook.

They'll be trying to co-ordinate with Epic Games, it's expected to be little later or even much later today... @VitoCorleone1992 You wouldn't know if Epic always release their free game at a certain hour on Thursday would you?

I figured the x3 could be temporary and I had like 75% stock in my bunker, so I should have sold it, but on the other hand I don't really need the money so... *shrug*

So even at 2x is the bunker worth it for a solo player? Its the one business I've hardly played, and I go for solo public sessions. Any advice? I'm guessing buy supplies instead of steal?

Absolutely. You can even sell the bunker full stock solo from the locations closer to the city (Farmhouse, Chumash, etc.); you just need a quick transport, so either a Mk II or CEO helicopter. You'll get 1 of 5 missions: 2 trucks (easy), 3 black Insurgents (easy), 3 monster trucks (can be done solo with the right set of drops and experience), 4 Dune FAVs (have to restart that one), 3 camo Insurgents (can be done solo but would take you 30 minutes so -> restart). Restarting by switching sessions will cost you $31,500 in product or you can wait until the bunker it is full again.

You would've lost your product over 2.1m cause of technical limitations. Caused by Rs mechanics...

Yeah Rockstar is figuring out if they are man enough to say something about it or if they ‘just’ ignore it like many times before.

I've heard that they are hosting gta v for free on epic games or something and that the service on that website is offline because of the traffic on it, so they're waiting on that.

If the 3x was initially planned, they might be scraping together a new one, lol.

Hehe yeah, in that case they have to rewrite the newswire and potentially scrape together old artwork if they intended some new fancy artwork with 3x GTA$ and RP on it.

Thinking about it...  they might as well put together a big fat bonus for all players while they are at it. I mean we all had to change our profit forecast today....

How does things work in epic games store, can we just get the game for free and have it there to whenever we want to download it or do we have to download it right away?

Just a reminder that Epic games is owned partially(40%) by Tencent Holdings Ltd, which follows directions from the Communist Party of China.

I wonder if they really wanted to give us 3x$, I highly doubt it cuz that’s a lot of money quickly.  Also do you really think the news wire is taking so long because of the epic games store thing? I feel like that’s unlikely.

Bummer. I like how Epic fall from the sky when they put GTA V for free on their stores and the servers take a hit. It's almost as if it's one of the most hyped and well-known games of this generation

They have waited hours before changing the tunables again. If it was a mistake you would think they would have corrected it much much sooner. Instead they probably saw all the problems that it was causing and decided to turn it off.

Log in, redeem the game and that's it. You don't have to download it, yours to keep forever.

I have to say Epic must have paid a lot of money to secure this deal.

It's a video game browser, no one cares.

Another event and a another week of people naively hoping for a DLC announcement inside the newswire for an event week... we won't hear anything about the next DLC until early July, I'd bet on it.

 

Also, I wouldn't download the Epic game store because regardless of who owns it, it's going to be full of trackers and will probably be using your computer to mine crypto, free stuff is never actually free..

We’re desperate man, it’s been almost 6 months now.  The next DLC is needed very badly, yes the reality of it, is that it’s coming late July.  But damn is this game dry right now.  The next DLC better knock the socks off everyone.  I’m more excited just to find out what the topic of it is.

What time does the newswire come out at

Same thing happened last year too, cause imagine going from arena wars to waiting for 6 months just for a teaser
