  1. Remember that the Helicopter Spawn on top of the Hospital is still there for Online. Here's a vid showing the location ~ You can use it to quickly rob two stores then exit and return to the game next to the hospital ( to make getting the helicopter again quicker ). You will end up making between 2-4 grand every 5 minutes. I recommend only doing 2 stores, because you only receive 2 stars each time you rob them. And even though you can outrun the Police Helicopter with your own on three stars for the third and fourth stores, it takes longer than it's worth.
  2. So because I hit the retry button my level 17 character with a 400K property and a 100K cash is gone...
  3. After grinding liquor stores and selling a ton of $9,000 cars ( 1 every 48 mins ) for a couple of days, I eventually saved up and bought the 400K apartment yesterday. And today I went Online to find that my character was deleted... And ALL my money GONE... All my RP GONE... All my cars GONE... All my weapons GONE... What a waste of time... ...I'm getting very sick of GTA Online's glitchy bullshit.
  4. Can anyone confirm what features are in the Safehouses. For instance are there any Health Packs in there, or a Safe to store money. I'm saving up for the $400,000 Apartment near Michael's House.
  5. This article might point towards the setting of the next GTA. - http://www.ign.com/a...-worth-of-ideas Extract ~ "It comes from the idea first. Where is it going to be set is the first question. Then that defines the missions; you’re doing different things in LA than in New York or Miami". They mentioned New York ( GTA lV ), and L.A. ( GTA V ), and Miami. Could this mean that GTA 6 will be set in Vice City?
  6. Method for making money online without actually playing the game ~ 1) If you're playing GTA V's Story Mode, it's a good idea to go into GTA Online every once in a while in order to steal a car and sell it to LS Customs. a good Medium-Range car can go for $9,000-$10,000. Once you've done this just go back into GTA V ( this will save your GTA Online progress/ including money earned ) . Do this before someone tries to kill you ( potentially costing you up to $5,000 each time you're killed ). 2) Cars can only be sold to Los Santos Customs once every in-game day (48 minutes real-time). So while playing GTA V's Story Mode, every 50 minutes or so check you Phone/ Watch to see how much time has elapsed. Then go back into GTA Online to make another 9-10 Grand. You're always returned back to where you originally left GTA Online. So this will speed up the process when spawning back into the game. 3) To see how much cars will sell for, browse the car website: southernsanandreassuperautos.com 4) Selling to Los Santos Customs will earn you 10% of the market price of each listed car, if returned undamaged. 5) Enter "Passive Mode" while in GTA Online by pressing Select ( on PS3 ), it will be an option listed there ( and will cost you $100 to activate it ). This will make getting vehicles much easier ( even though you are still vulnerable while in a vehicle ). While in "Passive Mode" you are invulnerable to enemy fire while on foot ( but players can still run you over ), so get into a place where you can't be hit by a car if someone is trying to kill you. This is especially useful at the Los Santos Customs in Vinewood, just jump onto the elevated platform after you have sold a car, then deposit the money into you Bank Account using your phone. Then exit the game ( or do some robberies first/ if no one is trying to kill you ). @zephyr1991 pointed out a great car for selling to LS Customs on the last page. The "Gallivanter Baller" ( SUV ) sells for over $9,000 ( while some other cars only go for under $1,000 ) ~ *PS - Make sure to Withdraw $100 from your bank before you exit GTA Online. So you can reactivate Passive Mode as soon as you come back. ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ Another tip ~ Replaying high yield missions can get you cash very quickly. Specifically missions you get from Gerard ( he's in your contacts list on your phone/ you have to unlock him ) have relatively high payouts ($5,000-$9,000) and they can be replayed directly from the post-mission voting block with no decrease in payout. Some of these missions, including one getting money from Bikers near the Strip Club only takes like 5 minutes to complete and have a $9,000 pay out. It may be tedious but you can redo the mission as many times as desired ( until you have enough money for an Apartment or Garage ).
  7. God, that is awful. I got my first taste of it a few days ago. I was enjoying a good lead in a motorbike race when I hear "FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAACK CHOO!" Before I could distinguish what the hell this pugilistic cholo was talking about, I saw his bike fly into mine from the side, knocking me directly into a tanker, where I promptly exploded. How he got away unscathed, I'll never know. You got your first taste of Pricks?...
  8. 1) Losing $5,000 every time I die. It's like 2 steps forward 1 step back half the time. 2) Going around looking for a car to sell, and then only 2 car types spawning for hours ( both under $3,000 value ). 3) I tried to go to the Firing Range and it froze. I then reloaded the game to find I couldn't get back into GTA Online ( for over 7 hours ). They probably kept trying to spawn me back into the frozen state in Ammunation. Overall GTA Online has been more aggravating than fun, so here's hoping it eventually gets better...
  9. I wonder if this Buzzard spawns Online ~ I'll check it out, and report back... *PS - hopefully the missiles can lock onto other Players.
  10. You can park vehicles to the right of the mound of Garbage under the Beach Apartment. I put a Comet and a Hexer in there, and they haven't disappeared ( probably because they don't get in the way of mission markers ).
  11. You get $150,000 for collecting all 12 hidden packages ( Suitcases of Money ranging anywhere from $8,000 to $25,000 ). Most of these ( excluding one ) are underwater. Here's a map showing you the locations ~ The $25,000 one is in the South-West corner of the map.
  12. Maybe he shot you, then enabled passive mode. And you then tried to shoot him ( having no luck and stopping ), after which he began attacking you again ( deactivating passive mode ).
  13. @Mercy - He probably shot you, and then activated passive mode ( which makes you invulnerable to other players for $100 ).
  14. 1) To more quickly deposit any money you have made ( instead of going to an ATM ). Use the "Internet" on your Cell/ Mobile Phone and click on the "Money & Services" link at the top of the page. Then click on "Maze Bank" ( your Bank in GTAO ) to deposit money remotely into your Bank Account. This will avoid any other players camping out near an ATM waiting to kill you and take your money. Here's a quick video guide ~ 2) Make sure that the first vehicle you steal is a good one. Because you only get 1 Free Car at the beginning of GTA Online ( with all the customizations free for it ). 3) Easy Early-Game Money - To earn money easily at the beginning of the game without alerting the police, steal a good common car in Vinewood. Then, go to Los Santos Customs and sell it to them ( you can sell stolen cars to LS Customs in GTAO ), although this will not work for Luxury Sports/ Super Cars. If you try to sell one of these to LS Customs, a text pop-up will appear saying that the car is too hot for them. You will get around $9,000-$10,000 for a good common car ( which doesn't have too much damage ). Once they have paid you the money, I would advise going to an ATM or using "Maze Bank" on your phone to deposit the money into your Bank Account ( before another player tries to kill you ). You can repeat this as many times as desired.
  15. Make sure that you're outside when you enter the "Skyfall" cheat. And if that doesn't work then you're probably entering it incorrectly, because it works perfectly for me.
  16. Someone else might have already mentioned this, but ~ Make sure that the first car you steal is a good one. Because you only get one free car at the beginning of the game.
  17. I feel like San Andreas is still the best GTA ( especially for it's time/ back in 2004 ), just because of it's feel and atmosphere. GTA V didn't resonate with me as much ( plus three quarters of the music is shit ). But that's not to say that it is a bad game, I just thought it had more potential. So my ranking would be ( based purely on the Single Player component ) ~ 1) GTA San Andreas 2) GTA V 3) GTA lV 4) GTA Vice City 5) GTA lll 6) GTA Liberty City Stories 7) GTA Vice City Stories 8) All the rest
  18. What are some of the things you've found while underwater? Any Easter Eggs? Also has anyone noticed that you can only go so deep with Scuba Gear or in a Submarine before you start losing health or the Submarine implodes. It would of been interesting if we could of gone all the way down to the Ocean Floor further out to Sea. I even tried using the Invincibility Cheat to see if I could make it all the way down to the bottom, but it was automatically disabled at a certain depth ( would of been cool if there was some type of monster down there in the Darkness ).
  19. Anyone interested in finding a Sabre Turbo ~ One will always spawn in one of Trevor's "Civilian Border Patrol" Missions ( in the Strangers and Freaks category of Missions ). The Mission itself is called "Minuteman Blues". O.K a Black Sabre Turbo will always spawn right at the beginning of this mission, right behind the Pickup Truck. Just complete the mission ( or fail it ) and take it back to your garage. *PS: In fact you might not even need to start the mission to get it. -------------------------------------------- Western Daemon Location ~ You can buy the Paggasi Vacca Online for $240,000. OR If you want it for free, you can get it playing as Michael after you've started the Epsilon Missions ( Warning Minor Mission Spoilers in the Vid ) ~
  20. The opposite happens with me. Whenever I go to Downtown LS Police Station to get the Armour there, I always grab a Soda/ Soft Drink to refill my Health as well. But sometimes because NPC's are sitting too close to it the option to buy doesn't trigger. So if I'm playing as Michael or Franklin I usually press right on the D-Pad twice, the first time to greet the nearest NPC, the second to insult them ( with Trevor he insults them the first time ). The NPC's usually just walk away, giving me access to the Drinks Machine. But sometimes they decide that they want to fight me, and after their first punch ( which I provide no resistance to whatsoever ), every cop in the police station turns around to shoot them down in a hail of bullets. After which all Civilian NPC's run screaming out of the building, the cops go back about their business as if nothing happened, and I calmly go about buying and downing my cheap $1 Drink.

  22. If anyone is interested in finding a Sultan ( It's a cross between a Lexus IS and a Mitsubishi Lancer Evo ) ~ If you own the Tequila-la-la Club, you can get a phone call from them ( about a thief stealing from them or something ) triggering a Property Mission. The thief in this mission will usually be driving either a Phoenix, Sultan or a Futo. I suggest Quick-Saving before the mission so you can reload if you don't get the right car. So just kill the thief and take his car. It's a nice little Getaway Car when upgraded.
  23. One thing I dislike is that the Machine Guns and Spike Dropper are not in the Free-Roam version of the Deubauchee JB 700 ( the DB-5 like James Bond car ). Also you can't find or purchase the Juggernaut Armour ( from the Heist Mission in Paleto Bay ) while in Free-Roam either. Imagine going on a rampage against the cops in the Juggernaut Suit, or using the Deubauchee JB 700 during a Street Race and deploying the Spikes to puncture the tyres of the Drivers behind you. Why does Rockstar keep leaving out cool stuff like this? When they could easily have Free-Roam versions of them as well. Once used in the mission they should of been unlocked for use in Free-Roam. It's like going and doing the Area 69 mission in GTA San Andreas and not receiving the Jet-Pack as a reward afterwards. It's just plain stupid. ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ ^^^ Also another minor annoyance is the lack of gloves. I thought that there would be fingerless gloves in the game, seeing as they were seen in one of the pre-release screenshots. They could of made Michael and Franklin look more like Assassins/ Hitmen ( especially when wearing a suit ).
  24. It was one of the weapons from the Special Edition version of the game ( it's right under the Bullpup Shotgun at Ammunation ).
  25. Why would you run? The last time I went to Muscle Beach as Trevor I was running after them with a hammer, while they where running everywhere screaming like little girls. The last time I switched to Trevor he was chasing some guy on a golf course, saying something like; "All I want is for someone to hold me, that's all". After which I chased the guy down and bashed his head in with a hammer..................... because that's what Trevor would of done, isn't it?
