With Steven Ogg seemingly being away from all things GTA/gaming related, doesn't even interact or care about it anymore, I doubt we'll ever see Trevor again.

 

Trevor had his part in GTAO anyways. Would a "prequel DLC" featuring Jonny be a reasonable idea?

I don't think Payday really shares the same universe as those movies you mentioned. More like references and feature DLCs.

 

No. These are fully licensed characters with full shared campaigns.

Ahh. Sorry. I thought you meant the movies.

 

I haven't played those games, though.

Looks like there's gonna be a new event where Sprunk could come out on top  I'm going to assume it's the Junk Energy stuff.

 

 

 

There is so competition based around the Junk Energy rewards. this means they will either have to scrap the Junk Skydiving rewards for the competition and add more Junk related stuff in a later update or use a different brand. 

or they just give it out for no reason.

The time window for that was before the Gunrunning DLC, now that timeline has moved forwards so much and is now in line with present day shenanigans, this wouldn't work.

 

Unless they would make this as a singleplayer DLC....But that's a dead horse that is not even worth beating up anymore.

I mean too be fair, unless you are still playing the game or taking active part in its development/maintenance, the game's 10 years old there would be next to no reason for someone to still care about it.

There's also the fact that the fans/community of said game or whatever tv show, movie, etc., need that the actors or voice actors behind the protagonist have to be the same level of love for said product as the rest of the community. Tbh, Steven Ogg was the most popular of the 3 protagonists, he probably was called to go here and there at con's or do cameos, or just get connected with the game that at a certain point it was enough for him, not to mention that this it's more consuming for those who aren't that much of gamers, idk if it's the case of steven ogg, but seems like so.

 

P.S.: Who would have thought? Another week without a new car!

You will have more time to earn money, and you will not need to spend your money unnecessarily. It might cost a lot so that we have time to stock up by then, obviously he won't be the only one in the update, there are so many things coming that we won't be able to decide what should be the most important..

Also, the current problem with bonusing any Special Cargo stuff is the stealth raids that happen without you being an Motorcycle Club President or CEO, etc. No notification when that happens and if you're not quick about things, you could lose some, a lot, or all of your stock.

The only counter to that is to be cautious and leave CEO immediately when you finish activity (sell, heist prep, etc) which requires players to be the CEO. In free roam if you notice you can't enter interiors, leave session, but even that might not be enough, if someone was messing around driving some vehicle or anything else while raid was happening in the background without them knowing so raid could be over and they can loose everything from the warehouse. This needs to be fixed unless it's intended ''feature'' of summer update.

You can be raided when joining a session after just completing a job and again that can happen without being in CEO / MC. I just go to the Jobs section of the pause menu and if I see it greyed out with the "can't do this whilst in a gang activity" or whatever it's called I just find a new session.

Yea, those silent raids happened to me more often if i was leaving some race or other activity going back to new session even if i was not CEO, but when i join new session after activity i just drive/fly past some interior like casino/nc/lc car meet and if there is no corona i switch session, after doing so i've never noticed loosing any crate.

Well after 1 weeky I'm back from my little Star Citizen Freefly Vaccation.

What did I miss?

Besides my fellow Sprunk folks getting f*cked by R*. You can bet your arse those Sprunk clothes will be GTA+ exclusive.

The Junk Rewards themselves are tied to getting 1 and all 25 Gold Medals on the skydives. The Sprunk stuff will likely be tied to competing X, Y & Z amount of dives during the week they release - kinda like this week and a few previous we've been tasked with; "Complete this once for $X, complete it three times for another $X".

 

The loser of the Sprunk vs eCola event was no doubt always planned as the runner up prize players will have a little challenge to unlock, rather than unlocking all 3 immediately for winning a direct competition.

 

Also: The gtaonline subreddit are properly f*cking furious over eCola winning - and it's hilarious.

Rockstar seems to be adapting the whole "Complete an X mission to earn X money within 72 hours days" bonuses.

 

Because I have nothing to do while still waiting for my bunker sales bonuses from two weeks ago, I spend a little faction of my free time to correct your post.

Here's the thing tho, I went back to check the scripts of previous DLCs as far as many as I can and I didn't find anything suggesting that "Being a CEO" disables the Special Cargo raid.

 

What I did find out is that there's an indirect repercussion to Rockstar allowing us to sell our cargo within invite-only lobbies.

 

In order for the Special Cargo Raid to trigger, it must check the "GB_IS_BOSS_MISSION_AVAILABLE" function first. That function checks whether the mission is considered a "Contraband" mission. All Special Cargo missions are considered as "Contraband" including the raid as well. Prior to the new update, the "Contraband" missions cannot be launched within a private lobby, but Rockstar has since allowed that with the release of the latest update.

 

So now the Special Cargo raid can occur within private lobbies. The perfect environment for a stealth raid to occur since there's no sort of lag involved as you're the host and lots of players spend a lot of time being idle within these lobbies.

This is exactly the reason why I prefer to sell warehouse stock at 77 crates rather than wait til 111 to sell. It's a little less money per crate that way, but it's worth it to me to not have to stress over getting raided while I AFk to build up car meet rep level.

Right, but being raided without any notification or phone call whatsoever is surely a bug... 
If it's intentional, well that in itself speaks volumes.

One think i have to complain are the haircuts, for example why do female characters get a afro haircut and male characters a cut afro or why can't we have the haircuts from the artworks like this one

I would say that it's a bit of a pain in the ass to them making haircuts, i would like to have one in particular that already in the game that looks like that one from the Nightclub guy, but thing is, due to how's the face of my character, the hairline gets a bit buggy/glitched/clipped, idk how to say but you must know wha't i'm talking about.

its 1 gold for the bag unlock and 10 gold (the amount that spawn daily) for the chute unlock. it would make no sense for them to release it like that as there's no competition involved and both of the jackets have a "1" on them indicating the winner of the competition.

 

They could just make them available next update with a "2" on the jacket instead.

Hmm, I got my money for the bunker sales the week it was announced after a few days. I guess this is yet another of those random issues. Haven't really had issues with bonuses recently.

[Gaffa]

Aye so far I'm down $850,000 from the bonuses... 
$100,000 for the "Just For You" complete Dr Dre's Contract. 
$500,000 for completing three Bunker sales. 
$250,000 for completing one Nightclub sale. 
Don't know if I've missed off any.
