Grand Theft Auto Series Megathread V12 - GTA Online: We Have a Hacking Problem - Games

Yeah for anyone who was thinking of getting this game and playing it legit, they're gonna be getting into some really dodgy shit online, I mean the amount of shit is one thing, the amount of money you need to get most of this shit is another, the start of GTA Online was alot more friendly for newcomers, now, it's just like, "Hey, fuck you!"

How long until they go to space?

I can't vouch for what it was like at launch, only ever played on PC, and only really started playing regularly around Cunning Stunts. But yeah, if you're starting out in this game these days, it requires a lot of patience and willingness to learn how to manipulate the system.

I'd be perfectly fine with the excessive amounts of military hardware if Rockstar gave two ounces of shit about actually balancing the game. Have late-game be a clusterfuck, fine. I'm okay with the flying shitmobiles if I can have one and a counter to it as well. The problem lies in that Newbie No. 198590128512 with a Mark One Pistol is expected at level seven to fight off XxX_PRO_KKK_MEMBER_666_XxX who just happens to have a flying saucer from Destroy All Humans along with a raygun, and if you're doing anything remotely profitable that balance of whatever equipment you have is gone, because you're forced into the slowest, weakest vehicle in the game with a giant "PLZ DEDSTROY MY 500K SHIPMENT DANK U" sign pointed at you. At what point is R* going to flat out kill the game doing this? I have a feeling it's only a matter of time before a major gaming news site just says "STOP. DO NOT PURCHASE OR YOU WILL BE ASSRAPED BY ALIEN EQUIPMENT FROM XCOM REPEATEDLY IF YOU DON'T PAY YOUR WAY UP THE LADDER" and people stop buying en-masse.

Maybe you should stop playing the game if it offends you so much, you're kind of shooting yourself in the dick here.

Will they ever make a new map?

[QUOTE=kimr120;52958763]Will they ever make a new map?[/QUOTE] As much as I'd like it to happen, I don't think it'll happen on GTA V. The updates already seem to be slowing down judging by the amount of dripfeeding they do with every update.

You can already see the hype for the update as everyone is begging modders to give them money in every single session

Is there even a rule against posting trainers here? I've never seen it be an issue. Who gives a fuck?

i'm expecting more of the same but god fucking damn, I'm getting that flying fuckin amphibian delorean

[QUOTE=Doctor Zedacon;52959828]Is there even a rule against posting trainers here? I've never seen it be an issue. Who gives a fuck?[/QUOTE] Friendly was released and basically developed here, but the rule of thumb has basically been its ok as long as its not to be used in multiplayer. No one is gonna care though.

[QUOTE=IAreLegend;52960193]i'm expecting more of the same but god fucking damn, I'm getting that flying fuckin amphibian delorean[/QUOTE] They aren't the same vehicle, the flying one is the Deluxo and the amphibious one looks as though it might be a Torero, judging from the body styling. Either way, they are going to be two separate things, that will likely both carry very heavy price tags.

I wonder if that jetpack is gonna be a buyable (and really expensive) item from warstock like the ballistic equipment

One of my mates was getting back into gta so decided to reinstall it so I could play online with him. Did a bunch of cargo collection missions, go to deliver them for the final payout and the game bugs out and refuses to let me airdrop the last two sites (games been out for how long now and thats still a thing...?). Fly around for about 10 minutes unsure what to do and then im suddenly killed by thousands of tiny explosions going off all around me mid air by a guy on the other side of the map who promptly disconnects after doing this to half the server. 10/10

If you're ever in the position that the mission can't be completed or you know you're going to fail it or get blown up, just quickly go into the pause menu and hit New Session. As long as you don't see the 'Sell Mission Failed' prompt, when you join your new session, you will only have 3 crates missing from your warehouse. You can also do this to brute force your way into an easier sell mission, but beware, every time you do this during a sell, 3 crates are discarded and need to be re-sourced. I hope it wasn't a full 111 crate warehouse you lost, that's a lotta work down the drain. Also, small tip on crate collection missions, go for 2 crates at a time. 3 crates is a waste of time and money ($6k per crate), 1 crate is the most cost effective ($2k per crate) but will take forever to build a full warehouse, and 2 crates is the happy medium ($4k per crate) especially if you are a 2 man outfit.

Wait a minute. Wait a fucking minute. [t]https://i.imgur.com/Izd9JJ6.jpg[/t] Can we two-man Pac Standard now? Keep one crazy cunt with a minigun in the lobby, one person purging the lower levels and stealing cash? Even if this is only setups, this is fucking miraculous.

Another tweet from Rockstar: [media]https://twitter.com/RockstarGames/status/939594174206304257[/media] I wonder how well this helicopter is going to do against the Hunter.

Got a new GTA account after being banned, time to do more hackerbux shenanigans. I am NOT looking forward to sitting there and waiting for research to finish at the bunker. I hope I can finish it all before the 12th in case the trainer I use gets detected.

Start some research, and then watch the security cameras right next to the bunker laptop so you don't get AFK kicked. Go watch something on youtube for 5 minutes or jack off or whatever, and hop back to the laptop terminal. You should be able to fast track whatever research it was on. Repeat the process until all projects are done. The only waiting you have to do is very minimal. You can't actually fast track the research project until at least one tiny sliver of the progress bar has gone up.

The tank is called 'Khanjali' From the Rockstar Facebook page [QUOTE]There’s a new tank in town. The Khanjali can be upgraded with a Rail Gun cannon.[/QUOTE] [t]https://i.imgur.com/oWCkoOw.png[/t]

[QUOTE=Tuskin;52962654]The tank is called 'Khanjali' From the Rockstar Facebook page [t]https://i.imgur.com/oWCkoOw.png[/t][/QUOTE] Damn, are we stealing this shit from HYDRA or something?

Someone in another thread (Or was it this one?) Said it looks like a Polish tank (obviously without the railgun)

Fuck it, anyone here have a reliably hack that gives money? I'm not missing out on this and I'm not dumping hundreds of dollars I don't have to get shitcards.

Thats reflects really poorely on rockstar given how many forum threads i found about it, none with any response from them. Good thing it was only like 6 crates, was just testing the waters after being gone so long.

So how does anyone actually play this? Every single session has at minimum 2 people running around with god mode on killing anyone they see or just remotely killing people over and over for no reason.

[QUOTE=archival;52963565]So how does anyone actually play this? Every single session has at minimum 2 people running around with god mode on killing anyone they see or just remotely killing people over and over for no reason.[/QUOTE] I tend to port block to get myself into sessions that nobody else can join if I'm looking to grind the public session only work. It's just not worth grinding in public sessions with the amount of bullshit going on. Right now, if you're looking to make legit money quickly before the update, I'd recommend MC clubhouse contracts since they're double cash and RP until the update. They can be done in friend/invite only sessions so you don't need to worry about assholes fucking it up.
