Have you ever driven an electric car? They are so linear. That thing looks the same as every other sh*tbox hypercar.. 

you can't drive one ICE car and assume they all drive the same. same deal with electrics.

But it's not silly they reuse nightclub, garage, and penthouse interiors, etc. for missions?

A interior being reused is not a problem, provided that it's exterior is not a property that we can own and its somewhere else.

Or that the penthouse clearly takes up the whole floor of the casino...

And there are multiple floors on the casino that could accommodate multiple penthouse interiors.

Or that we Rob the casino, but also own a penthouse there and doOr work for Ms Baker?

Yeah that looks like a pretty big oversight if looked over at first without paying any kind of attention to it, but:

 

We do the Agatha Baker missions to avoid the casino property value taking a dump, but ultimately that fails and the casino is bought out by the Duggans anyway, meaning that out penthouses lost real estate value anyway so our efforts were all for nothing.

 

As a revenge, since the penthouse lost value anyway, we rob the casino that we own a penthouse into, and since the casino heist is written around the fact that we are constantly robbing it,  it means that eventually we will make back all the money that we lost on our property and some more.

Or how about where the duggans pays us to protect their vineyard and we get paid to destroy counterfeit bills the koreans are in the process of distributing the very update after we give them the plates from the military to make said counterfeit bills...

Simple: We are mercenaries and we take money from whoever wants to pay for our services, regardless of our past actions.

 

It's the main reason why we have Merryweather on our phones and can use some of their services, even though we are killing their folks and messing with their operations in almost every opportunity.

 

On the case of protecting the Duggans vineyard, we are working for the Franklin and Partner Company and those folks just happened to be our clients, it's possible that they didn't even knew it would be us doing the job for them before hiring the company.

 

In the case of the Koreans, the same principle applies, KDJ got us the job they were willing to pay, we did it and we got paid for it, then sometime later Franklin get us the job to f*ck with their operations because our company was hired to fick with them, and we just want the money.

 

Lorewise, our characters are never properly IDed by the enemies when we are doing jobs because we just kill everyone that could be a witness, so there's never any actual consequences to working for and screwing up everyone in LS.

 

It wouldn't surprise if we eventually end up doing any kind of missions for El Rubio down the line too.

It seems like Rockstar Support screwed up something. You can make an in-game missing item request and choose the I-Wagen when it's yet to be released.

 

I guess the next vehicle to be released as part of the drip-feed on Thursday will be the I-Wagen.

 

Guess what, Granger 3600LX is now listed as one of the vehicles you could make a support ticket for. It's highly likely next week vehicle.

Since the i-Wagen is a useless boring piece of sh*t that I won't be purchasing for full price(if I'm purchasing it at all), I'm tempted to push my luck and try to see if the support could gift me a Granger earlier.

 

Not sure if they wised up on this oversight yet though.

[crsN]

I don't know why Rockstar does this ... they should have put them all in the beginning, both on Rockstar Support and in GTA Online. : D

Even if you somehow succeed in convincing them to gift you a Granger early. Once you boot up the game and spawn in, the game would instantly remove it from your garage. You would have to pretty much avoid logging in at all this week and wait until the tunables is updated next Thursday.

How did you even get LS customs to open on iFruit? The app just crashes whenever I try to use it. 

[AUScowboy]

Don’t bother with the prize ride this week, the Calico has been severely ruined and is likely to never be fixed along with the rest of the tuner cars.

 

No meaty bonus this week, just Simeon contacts?

No street or track rims (or new offroad wheel, I guess) and only OG cars BESIDES the iWagen for the last 10 driven

If that fails, reinstall app and try again.

It does have a turbo option in LSC if spawned in via a trainer in SP, which OG electric cars like the surge DON'T

Not entirely sure it sticks, but it makes so little difference to top speed I don't even know if it's working right after processing it half the time

It's a very odd car, the wheel textures are loopy, trunk clips through the spoiler, and the front neon emitter is literally missing from the game files

That's straight up not true? Its lap time is only a couple tenths of a second slower than before, and it's still the 3rd best Tuner. The only areas where it is significantly worse are glitched top speed and drifting.

wouldn´t it come back once the tunables get updated though?
i remember when they by accident years ago made all the dripfeed vehicles available by accident.
i could be wrong, but i think i remember being that bought them, got them back once it officially released

[AUScowboy]

They all feel terrible. The Calico and Sultan Classic RS were great off road, now they feel like the Patriot Mil Spec in sand (60MPH feeling the engine bog and struggle) flagged vehicles sounds and feel like cars with serious engine problems lol

[MekhiSkyline]

Damn idek whats worse, the Baller ST or the I-Wagen

There is a group of people who think if Rockstar fixes something that was broken, then they are ruining the game. 
I just recently had a "discussion" with somebody who thought Rockstar ruined the RE-7B (to sell KeshKerds I might add) because they fixed the top speed glitch that it had when it first released.

They better get rid of flags by E&E.

Except the tuners with stock suspension and non-stanced without low grip tires shouldn't have been impacted at all, but the are!

They won't. The flags are a workaround for physics engine issues that affect specific vehicles. Maybe in GTA VI.  

 

Making me wonder about the next DLC too (likely only after E&E), wonder if the guy who keeps spamming us about the military will finally get his Gunrunning Part 2 or something eventually.

more like beta tests

The Tuners should be reverted, and only have the limiter imposed past a certain speed (+stanced)

Correct, when they removed them, the management circle at the garages showed something along the lines of "Downloadable Content missing"

 

I think the same happens if you got a hold of a dripfeed vehicle before it was released using other..uhm... how do I put it... not-very-legit-methods.

but tuners aren't useful outside of tuner racers

I hate lowered suspension anyway, so all my cars have stock suspension
