That's a damn shame. Sorry to hear that!

 

Not to waste your time, but it may be that it bugged and after that first race, maybe joining another from the job selection may get it to register. 

 

But that's just a guess as sometimes when the 'lose 3 star wanted level' was a daily often the first time didn't count.

 

But it's a dumb system and I'll put in a ticket too, just to help highlight an obvious oversight. 

Nope. It doesn't work because the Series has been deleted. Also, the job selection screen is broken. After you've done one of the Deluxo races, the job selection screen shows you a whole bunch of jobs, but no other Deluxo races.

 

The reason why 'lose 3 star wanted level' sometimes doesn't count is because you have to draw blood for it to properly register. Take out a cop or a police helicopter and it always works.

What a mess, I hadn't realised the job screen was like that with these. Daft of them with this stuff indeed!

To be fair, I always did. I'd get a small wanted level and shoot the cops that spawned, but this game is so inconsistent with these little things. But fortunately it was far less a problem than this missing series issues. I didn't mind shooting a few more cops.

Started from the loading screen, after that voted replay because of course none of the other races were special vehicle races, did the second race, voted free mode, still nothing.

[Tez2]

It's a mess up from Rockstar. Contact Support to compensate in case you lose daily streak.

 

I looked it up and it doesn't matter if you load up any sort of jobs. Because of the whole "cycling jobs in & out", the variables for Special Race Series were emptied out. In other words, there's currently no job classified as part of the "Special Race Series".

How hard is it to remove that objective if that mode isn’t in the game?  Or better yet just don’t remove things from the game.

Yet the loading screen says participate in special race series!  What a mess.

The $500k we were offered for completing all 5 Heists last week? You'll get it even if you only helped out in the 5 finales as a random.

Having now hosted Act 1 and assisted in an Act 2 & 3 finale, here's hoping it's the same story next week.

 

Already got Casino & Cayo ready, Casino just needs to be paid the setup and it'll be Aggressive Hard & Cayo is ready to play so I can just nab the 10 minute wait to play whatever we get on Hard.

What's the big deal? Daily objectives stopped being worth it ages ago, if you're so desperate for money just buy the vehicle warehouse then switch to Cayo Perico once you get the sub

Nobody does daily objectives for money silly.

Should PC players dress like clowns on GTA online? To protest for the trilogy disaster?

Groove Street Games has orbitaled cannoed this Games, this is getting worst by the hour, what a Shame 

 

[arisfelbonilla]

Well since gta trilogy failed (not so much because for me the cause is mismanagement and more than playstation ruined the XD launch)

And surely R will do it and not the same grove street xD

Fixed that for you. At least Arena War brought some interesting cars while After Hours' only saving grace was the 30 garage spaces it brought. I'd wager were it not for the AP points aspect, Arena War would've been much better received though.

Wasn't just the points, it was hiding long requested vehicles like the Space Docker and Monkey Blista behind that sh*tty PvP mode WITHOUT the ability to purchase it.

 

After Hours gave us another easy business like the Bunker, Business Battles, AND the Terrorbyte and those fun missions. The only bad thing it brought are all the crybabies that act like MK II's are in every lobby

I guess you're right because whenever I play in a solo lobby, there are no Mk IIs.

AMONG US DLC CONFIRMED

The timing for it was also very wrong. The concept of an Arena Bloodring, while something that'd been in the GTA 3D games since Vice City, is more akin to a DLC that should have released as part of a Story Mode + Online expansion... but that's under the assumption that Heists actually released 2 weeks after launch as intended, back in the 5 character slots days.

With this being Heist Month, I'm going to put a guess the update next month will be another new heist.  My thoughts North Yankton where Michael comes back and requests us to help steal something from his past that he can't do on his own.

At this point I'm starting to wonder whenever they accidentally did some really big mistake, like completely wiping the tables from their database, and they can't find backups.
Imagine if you start up GTA Online and you are greeted with the character creation screen because they accidentally wiped all your progress?
What do you do, reply with reaction:
- sure, lets start over
- play but only if there is a huge $GTA dollar compensation.
- close the game

 

[Edit, forgot to add my choice:]
 

  Hide contents

I would close it. I got a 200 car collection including rare cars like the Lost Slamvan I got from the Lucky Wheel. Thanks, but if that's taken from me, I'm out.

 

Honestly, while i would be mighty f*cking pissed, I wouldn't mind starting over that much. Probably will do so either way on my secondary character once E&E drops.

I like your idea, i wouldn't mind going back there either. 

 

 

I pitched an idea on my Twitter along the lines of "The Richman Mansion Heist". Honestly i'd kill for that, to be able to just put on a fancy suit, attend a fancy party at a fancy mansion and then come back later alone (or with 3 buds ) and raid the entire f*cking place of its' riches. Or whatever valuable can be hiding in there.

 

Added bonus is that purchasable Mansions can be introduced in the same update.

Best thing of arena war: the outfits. (altought they went a bit lazy in the alien ones (not saying the green and purple, the others) bcz only the heads have variations, the bodies are the same one, just in different skins).

I dunno. With the introduction of Contracts, R* are walking this weird line now between what's a Heist & what's not. Anyone whose played the Contracts will tell you they're a re-worked soloable take on the exact same mission structure of the Fleeca Heist. The big questions are one; why did R* not call them Heists at anypoint in the marketing for Tuners, or after? and two; why did R* playing their cards close to their chest about what these multi-part robberies actually were?

 

The 3 named Heist updates, (Doomsday, Casino & Cayo Perico) have all been singular. They've been on a singular location that can be taken in multiple ways (although Doomsday is a massive linear Storyline using the original Heists update first-time playthrough mission structure). Did they think the "Los Santos Tuners" update had better pull than calling it the "LS Car Meet & Tuner Heists" update? If anything that would've likely had more of a draw by being overt about what else the update had to offer, beyond just the Car Meet location itself prior to the Out Now trailer. Not to mention that while it would be a longer title for an update, it's a no-nonsense title, unlike; the "Further Adventures in Finance & Felony" update or the "Southern San Andreas Super Sport Series" update.

 

The entire LSCM side of Tuners is like a car version of After Hours, a single, show-off location with a few new races, whereas the Auto-Shop half of the update is like a car version of Heists & a little extra with the customer cars & daily Hot List. If the Lowriders update was held off as a Spring 2016 update and instead just the Auto-Shop half of Tuners as we know it alone was released in December 2015 under the name "Heists 2" rather than Executive & Other Criminals, who the hell knows what Heist & Car-ccentric timeline GTA Online would've gone in for 2016-18 rather than that disgraceful mobile game design sh*tfest?

 

So when it comes to December? They've called it a "new adventure" with "well-known contacts and familiar friends"... given the coding relating to the Nightclubs that was found in the Tuners update and the new music licensing suggests the After Hours crew of Tony & English Dave, the only other hint is their usage of the words "expanding their "legit business"", which given the GTA franchise could hint at any f*cking character. If it is a full-blown Heist & the Auto-Shop was a test run for some kind of new mission structure formula, bring that f*cking on. If it's just one or two Auto-Shop scale Contracts, maybe perhaps activated via a different property, eh... hopefully they give us news as to why we should invest in a next-gen console for Expanded & Enhanced at the same time.

I think would be a too much complex name "LS Car Meet AAAAAAAAAAAAND Tuners Heist", it would like they were pulling two strings and didn't had a clear direction. And if you see clearly, the Tuners update was kinda that tbh. You have the LSCM and the Auto-Shop for "mini-heists", split those two factors and bring just one to the DLC and that it's. What would you had? A half-assed DLC...that could be two spring fillers dlc's (the LSCM one, and the Horny Duo Heist, another).

But i feel that they lost themselves a bit in both departments...the LSCM felt like it wasn't the focus of the dlc, but the heists, and the heists, well, they could be more driven to "heists with tuning robberies components", like, instead of stealing random sh*t from the Horny Duo, we could do heists more towards the Auto-Shop interests like car bodyparts, some valuable cars, etc., and making a big use of cars during that heist. And not forgetting the race series that well...as anything else one day it would become depopulated, but it last for a while longer bcz the damn Reputation Ranks unlockables, and R* make players to grind the sh*t out of something grudgingly in a OCD way, bcz there's only 7 races for two types of races, doing that over and over. And then they pull this unrealistic ranks until rank 1000, lmao...like, yeah sure, cya. Even a damn jacket at rank 600...are u freaking kidding with me? o_O'

And what we know about the next dlc is that will be some sort of "Nightclubs" part 2, or "Festival bussiness" (if they open that theater for Dr. Dre concerts or something like that. But if they are going to give us more techno/trance music, it would be cool if they hired this guy, he looks dope. Maybe it will be a biased opinion but why not the portuguese DJ Magazino? (He's currently fighting for his life due to a severe cancer, so prayers for him. ). Take a look:

EDIT: We are kinda stuck, aren't we? God, let's hope for some props on Thursday... This is where we're at, we know the formula so well we're hoping for props to be added to the game so we can work out where will get some focus in the update, before we're hoping to get actual marketing of said update.

[Spectre "2K"]

I honestly kinda thought CPH was our after hours part 2, what with the nightclub, cayo perico beach and handful of new DJs with their own menial missions. Even got a new meme vehicle that had nothing to do with the theme of either part of the update (though i guess the aquatic part, still, a bit strange)

[fryday]

They have to rework cayo perico and bring it into free roam. cant believe they wasted so much effort just for one mission....
