Now that we have all names for GTAV natives, I came across a native exclusive to Cayo Perico Heist, NETWORK_PATCH_POST_CUTSCENE_HS4F_TUN_ENT, for the Tunnel Entrance cutscene. Which goes on to show how hardcoded Cayo Perico was.

 

Taking the hardcoded approach is easier for the developers, but it gives off the suggestion that the developers weren't considering future expansions. So, perhaps Cayo Perico island was a one-time thing.

But isnt that exclusive to the heist itself?

As in, if they want to expand on cayo perico couldnt they just make new entrances/entrance cutscenes?

Not to mention if we get to own the island one day, do those hard coded things even matter?

All colors that are not blacklisted are saved

I don't think there's a blacklist for wheel colors, more that only official wheel colours get saved, but prime + secondary are different

those can have crew colors

LS Car Meet Races  (only on the underground test track) - 3xREP. 

 

 

11 hours ago, ACR said:

So pretty much useless as those things inside car meet can be mostly done only one time per day.

Wait, no 3x reputation on auto shop contracts? Does this mean the 3x is only for the Test Track thing?

 

 

It's 3x REP for ALL Tuners races. This means the two tuner racing series.

 

And if you play on PC, you can even go and look for player made tuner races on Social Club. Those are soloable, count towards prize rides, and also reward you with triple REP.

[DODI3OG]

So, they finally released the Service Carbine to Ammu-nation and a lot of us had to do it the hard way.

 

Glad I can finally buy the Phoenix, though. I've been looking for it for years now.

Doesn't race rep have a cooldown?

 

The wiki also says that there's a bonus for going there every day for 7/14/21 days. I wish I'd know about that; I'd not have given up going otherwise.

It exists. I asked the support why my pure white rims (on the car I won in the casino) turned into gray ones. And they told me that the pure white rims is blacklisted on the PC. When asked "why are they blacklisted?" they answered "because they're blacklisted".

Why do you think so? I only see this: ...and cutting your teeth in LS Car Meet Races to earn triple the usual Rep points.

LS Car Meet Races include only Time Trial (solo, one time per day), Head-to-Head and Scramble.

No mention about Sprints, Pursuits and Street Races i dont see. I participated yesterday and today in 5 chases and don’t see any serious increase in reputation.

I definitely think the Doomsday arc isn't over and it could very well be the "closure" for GTA Online's story.

I just tested again with my secondary character, and there is 100% a bonus on the Pursuits and Street races. If you read this older newswire, you can see that Sprints, Pursuit, and Street Races fall under the LS Car Meet Races. Same terminology is also used when you read the conditions for winning the Prize Ride.

I agree, it's very confusing. I read the description here:

https://gta.fandom.com/wiki/LS_Car_Meet#Races

and other Tuners races are not mentioned there.

[Mexicola9302]

There is nothing confusing about it, everything that gives the player REP is 3x REP now, simple as that.

Nope, autoshop contracts don't give 3x rep, same as going to ls car meet with personal car. Usual tuner races are giving 3x this week as well as time trial inside car meet, scramble, etc but that's about it. Best way to gain rep points, that being autoshop contaracts don't have bonus. I've noticed bigger influx of players doing tuner races last night but certainly a lot less compared to last year when tuner update was "fresh". You can often wait more than 5 minutes to enter pursuit with 4 minimum pkayers, it's just top much of a time waste.

Im pretty sure i got 3x REP yesterday, for going to LSCM with PV, doing a testlap with PV, doing a testlap with one of the 3 cars there, and modifying my vehicle there.

 

I also delivered 2 exotic cars, and i think i got 3x REP for that.

[krotex]

Sooo...  it's time to wake up Cthulhu?

TEZ!!! HELP!!! 

[Plocospermataceae]

Speaking of the sprint races, they should really have a global invite. Nobody's evet at the car meet so you're not really going to find anyone to do a sprint race with. It should just invite everyone in the lobby,

[Vallence]

No?

The wiki says it does, but if that's wrong then races become a pretty decent way to grind rep

edit: I shoulda tested it, wow there actually isn't a cooldown (I might have misread the page). Time to play the hell out of this ten second pursuit race I found.

Tbh and not disregarding your opinion, i would say that if people think that we will own cayo island one day, it's in the level of unrealiatic expectations as when not long ago before we got confirmation of vice city as the city for VI, people were saying that "maybe we will get vice city as a map expansion for gta online".

I have several vehicles with pure white rims (im on PC too) that retain their pure white color. Take that for what you will.

 

I know the Rat Loader loses it's pure white rims if you store that. It didn't used to, but some patch definitely changed them to force reset back to alloy... for whatever reason!

Well I doubt people expected we will own yachts or a driveable submarine one day in gta online. And if someone did it was also considered unrealistic.

 

And Vice City as a map expansion is still entirely possible considering we all have no idea what they plan to do with gta online when the next GTA releases.

If we should have learned something over the year its that nothing is impossible.

I don't believe you. I've tried every way possible to get pure white or pure black rims to save on PC and they do not. I'm guessing you have frost white and don't realize. I don't know of anyone that has been able to save them, and it's known that all paints not in the wheel color category are blacklisted. Why would your game be any different?

[Taterman]

Do you get 3x rep fro buying clothes at the car meet?

But the thing is if most certainly R* will not allow us to port everything we owned in GTA Online towards a "GTA Online 2.0" what would be the point of give to this GTA Onlinhe 1.0 the locations of GTA VI? Not to mention that they would need to polish Los Santos and Liberty City to meet the graphical standards of the future GTA VI's Vice City.

I dont want to take this thread off topic but that's a big deal for PC players. If true PC online is free real-estate for malicious actors.

There are cars in which the stock rims are painted in body color - they retain "realy Ice White" color. Also some "Street" and "Track" rims painted in "Frost White" look lighter, "almost like Ice White". But "Pure White", like on the Rat-Truck - yes, totally blacklisted.

It is still called GTA Americas... which is an old Leslie Benzies name idea if I'm not mistaken. They could very well combine the 3 HD maps if VI has a decade long lifespan like V has had.

I hope they noticed that having the same map for 10 years is way too boring. Let's hope for map expansions that aren't just for missions.

[VitoCorleone1992]

Anyone with the same problem? It's the 1st time i was going to the game today but this problem is taking like 1 hour and half. It says that "your saved data couldn't be loaded from Rockstar Cloud servers at this moment. Returning to GTA V". My cousin is in Online but says he can't join public lobbies. -_-' But the server status says that everything is with green light.

i had to look into this for uhhh... security purposes, yes, gotta make sure those job hackers are not up to anything bad! right.

 

aaanyway, i found this cayo perico tuner street race, it's actually cool as f*ck

Spoiler

the person that made this job really went through all the effort to make it look like a job r* would do

 

dave and el rubio in the background lmao

 

winner screen from cayo perico races

 

it's such a surreal mix of many race types. it's a tuner street race, open to every vehicle class, with open wheel and arena war props, on cayo perico, that was not made by r*

 

honestly imagine all the cool sh*t people could come up with if r* just opened up the dev creator to everyone. no reason not to, just strip it of any potential ways to mess with payouts/rewards and you have an insanely powerful tool that many creative minds could make even better use of compared to what we currently have.

 

it'd especially be nice for tuner street races so you can at least grind for rep without having to replay the same 8 or so r* races all day. some variety would be great.

meanwhile in a pursuit race, also on cayo perico...
