Oh come on!!!!!!!

Both of the cars at the dealerships that are on sale this week are green. The bright green Weeny Issi Sport and  Classic Green Pegassi Tezeract with Sprunk livery. I think R* expected Sprunk to win.

 

Red and Green yacht paint and lights are free? WTF. That should've been during the Sprunk vs eCola event too!

Completing a Special Cargo Sale will earn you a special GTA$250,000 bonus, while completing three will get you an additional GTA$250,000 (bonuses delivered within 72 hours of completion). Plus, get a 50% discount this week on sourced cargo from Lupe.

 

Wow... A whole $250k... Hopefully Special Item sales count. I have some in both warehouses. I guess selling them from both and doing one more sale will give me something to do this week.

 

[Spider-Vice]

$500K in theory: if you complete one sale you get $250K, if you complete three you get another $250K. Not too shabby.

The Community Series launches with 2X GTA$ and RP all week long plus a lump sum bonus of GTA$200,000 just for participating in any three Community Series Jobs.

 

And $200k to just AFK in three races.

[Exsanguination]

Blah…. I just want the kanjo SJ so I can role play the black civics from the fast and furious…. 

[The Gator]

2 weeks without a new car, what the f*ck is R* doing?

[El Diablo 702]

I’m calling bullsh*t, there’s no way the cancer cola beat out the true essence of life.  

[Max96]

Haven't received my money for bunker weapons sale, haven't received my money for nightclub cargo sale, not gonna receive my money for special cargo sale too!

[Standard Deluxe 59]

Meh, what's the hold up with the cars?

[El Cavilldo]

They trust so much on that Deathmatches stuff being good enough to think 'yeah, that alone worths a whole week of content' 

 

This DLC went so smoothly so far, why sour it with this long dripfeed hiatus? 

[Shadowfennekin]

Where's the jacket at? I don't see it...

[Valiant ENT CEO]

Rockstar: Congratulations on the past two weeks celebration! 

 

Also R*: Here's nothing!

Yeah I don't think all votes were counted right. It should've been way more than double soda consumption. 

[Pedinhuh]

That Magic Box community race needs a f*cking epilepsy trigger warning!

I think it's under the bomber jacket section... I could be mistaken only looked at it for a moment this morning.

[EkaSwede]

Come on can't we at least just buy the Sprunk stuff for a total of a million gta buckazoids or so? I mean, at least THOSE clothing items are worth a damn.

I think it was a natural effect of people still using the Interaction Menu for snacks a lot and going with eCola which is near the top unfortunately.

I'll bet that if they ever have an "all snacks" throwdown, P&Qs will win by a mile.

I still have to use the interaction menu a lot when I'm in a vehicle and snacking up.

Just noticed the BF400 is on sale for $23750 this week. One of the best bikes in the game imo.

[REVENGE777]

Rockstar where’s my 200k for doing these trash ass races? DNF in 3 is still participation!

Does anyone else feel like this competition between Sprunk and Ecola was extremely bias towards E-cola? Votes were supposed to be cast by purchasing the beverage and buying it as snacks if I understand it correctly. Well with Ecola being the snack that is listed on top of the snacks menu when you restock them that clearly gave it the advantage, as I myself and I’m sure many many others just operated on muscle memory when purchasing snacks and filled them from the top down, thus giving Ecola all these “votes” when really people were just trying to refill their inventory and weren’t thinking about it. 

[DrEeveell]

That's about as fair as Sprunk having 3 or 4 times as many vehicle liveries as eCola. And mostly better ones too.

Buying them doesn’t count as votes, consuming them does. Ecola was just drank the most.

[Spider-Vice]

eCola is at the top of the snacks menu so it wasn't that unexpected unfortunately. Sprunk had the participation numbers but people aren't used to selecting that drink in the menu.

[DrEeveell]

Geeze, I just played Terminal 66 in the new community series. Who the heck thought 57 checkpoints was a good choice for a lap race?

Also some dipstick crashed me off the track in the first turn and put me 30 seconds behind the leaders. And then managed to fall even further back into last place. More people need to update their tracks to ghost until first checkpoint.

Ah. Thank you for the clarification. Still, I feel like using the quick snacks hot key kind of took the actual choice out of this for most people. Certainly the case for myself.

Clever of rockstar to launch with 7 absolutely sh*te community creations so everyone thinks they can do better.

TBH it's the first thing that came to my mind.  I thought that if THIS was added to RS favorites, then I must publish my test tracks, which not decorated with advertising, but are really fun to ride on them.
