    There's less than a week left to buy some of the Independence Day content (Liberator monster truck, Sovereign bike, Rifle, Firework Launcher, T-Shirts and masks). Also, the Rocket Launcher and ammo will be available again during some other holidays.

    Just get one of the lads to lift your car in a cargobob and drop you from the top of the sky. You'll spin all over the shop and get both awards easily.

    Anyone know how to get rid of the armour that seems to be stuck to one of my online characters? I checked the Auto Show Armour setting in the Select menu and it's set to off, but alas, the armour won't remove from the character. I don't mind the way my characters randomly go bald after some races as the hair usually appears back in Free Roam, but this armour just won't go away.

    I had this about 2 months ago, press Select, go to Inventory then Body Armour. Then press the square button. Voila, body armour removed!

    Just reading on Reddit that info on an upcoming DLC has been leaked. The update will include the opening of the casino featuring poker, blackjack and roulette. Also interesting are the additions of missions by someone called Norman. These will apparently be CIA missions.

    Can't post a link cos I'm still a noob :( but the thread on reddit is titled "
    More info about SP DLC "

    Is tgere special crates this weekend? Need a beer hat

    Fingers crossed. After all those race DNF's, Taco Woman needs something to hide her blushes, and cover her bald head :)

    Weirdly enough, I switched to my male character around 2 weeks ago (been using my female character ever since my male character got to level 120) and for no reason he had unlocked a beer hat.

    Never got a "Special Crate" for either character, just switched over to the male char. one day and got a notification that "special items" have been unlocked. Went to a clothes store/the wardrobe in my apartment (can't remember which exactly) and the beer hat was in the menu.

    I got the "Pi$$wa$$er" beer hat. AFAIK there's 4/5 different hats to collect.

    Got kicked today from a full free roam session for the first time ever..This was after I spent over an hour tormenting poor lads in a jet - Actually no, the majority of their blips were bright red and they used a lot of offensive language so they deserved it! :P

    There comes a point in your jet flying career where you just stop dying, become hyperaware of your surroundings, and just become an invincible killing machine. There's nothing more rewarding in the game than to be able to pinpoint anyone on the map and obliterate them with one clean sweep, even when up against buzzards/snipers/other jets. I've clocked in nearly 30 hours flight time - which I'm not sure whether or not to be proud of, but it's essentially what I spend the majority of my time doing when I'm playing gta.

    ..Yeah, I'm a right d*ck online.

    We should get a few boardsies together and take every jet there is outta Zancudo, imagine the damage we could do!

  • Registered Users Posts: 652 ✭✭✭KeshFM93


    Hope there's a a couple of "best car" in whatever class in the update. Otherwise new cars are pointless IMO.

    My worst purchase to date was "The Liberator" spawns halfway up the map most times. R* knew what they were at making it a pegasus vehicle so you can't sell it :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,710 ✭✭✭Joeseph Balls


    Thank god i didnt buy the Liberator. I just thought it was pointless paying 1 mill for a pegasus vehicle that dose nothing.

    I made the same mistake of purchasing the Liberator too. So damn expensive. The limited time availability is a major factor in making me buy stuff like that.

    My best purchase was the Buzzard Attack Helicopter. Even more expensive than the Liberator but worth every penny.

    The rhino was a pointless buy for me. The buzzard was great though.
    I got lucky, one of those billion dollar glitches dumped 2 billion on me in January. I bought everything I could from pegasus. Rockstar took away the money but I kept the unlocks. I was only level 30, but it means I have all the normal planes and vehicles unlocked. Stuff I'd never spend money on otherwise.

    please do not invite me to races where catch up is left on . And do not invite me to races and turn off custom vehicles. Its not like the game is only out a week. if you haven't got your sh1t together by now , tough. I didn't spend ages doing missions etc (no seriously I didn't) to get cars how I like them just for custom cars to be turned off .

    Rant over. I love you all x

    Rumours abound on Reddit that glitched money is beginning to reappear. There's a thread called "There is 900,000 in my bank and I have no idea how it got there." in the GTA V Reddit section.

    I've saved up around 500-600k in preparation for the next update, but I wonder if a glitcher drops a billion in my account, will R* discover this and zap my account back to 150k regardless of what was earned legally? It would be good to get a load of money and buy everything possible for both characters, but it would suck bad if R* zap everyones account back to 150k again just as they release a new update with some $1m "must-have" vehicle.

    It's all speculation at this stage, and I'll wait until more reports start appearing, but if the money glitchers are back, what do you do? Report them and hope R* don't zap your account, or accept the glitched money and spend like a lunatic until R* come along and spoil the party?

    I'd say spend away. it's not your fault you got random money.

    if you were worried because you got a load of free money and thought that R* were gonna take everything the first thing I would do is empty one of your 10 car garages. And load it with as many customed adders as you could afford. They sell about 800k a go . and as far as I know R* have only ever taken glitched money after a patch and not the vehicles bought with the dodge money.

    so I'd say you'd be grand.

    I'm getting impatient now waiting for 1. 16 . C'mom R* , just a taste. I need it :p

    Good point Kesh, I was concerned my legal 600k would get zapped, but a 10 car garage full of modded Adders would be worth a lot more than 600k :)

    A couple of the lads were saying there's an update coming today but I've heard nothing yet. Also rumours of "Pilot School" DLC, not too fussed about that - probably a few new air races, parachute jumps and some new plane that'll probably cost around $1m. Just open the goddamn casino already! I'm convinced they're holding off on the heists until the next gen version is released at the end of October.

    At this stage I don't care about heists , I'll settle for new cars and casino. They can stick heists up there hole for all I care.

    I've been checking over and over "GTA 5 1.16" on Google and all I'm getting are people guessing. Even an educated guess is still a guess. I won't hold my breath.

    More reports of the money glitchers' return, seems to be all PS3 so far:

    A modder literally spawned near me and started dropping loads of 2k cash piles.. ended up getting around 300k, thought all the cash mods were sorted

    ECB2's mod menu was also patched out awhile back, but from what i'm hearing, somebody's "fixed" it and brought it back into the game which is why you started getting money and others are finding U.F.Os again.

    All these money and alien glitches are really bad news. Means devs have to work on fixes instead of casinos/heists etc. I think we would have getting heists much sooner if there weren't all the money glitches since launch.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,301 ✭✭✭The One Who Knocks


    I think I have about 10k left altogether, glitched cash would really come in handy right about now,.. I'd actually be tempted to purchase money otherwise, grindings just not my thing.


  • Registered Users Posts: 455 ✭✭Skullface McGubbin


    Let's hope the long awaited heists will have large enough payouts and provide a legit alternative to money glitches. Well, it actually still wouldn't stop people from money glitching but hey, at least it will be another way to make money legitimately.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 954 ✭✭✭TacoMan


    I don't think the money glitchers are all bad. I like the fact that the modded cash gives the two fingers to R* and their mentally overpriced "Shark Cards".

    On the other hand we have the destructive troll hackers. The clowns who spawn in god mode, neutralise your weapons and kill you over and over. The clowns who spot you in a jet and make it just explode in the sky for no reason. The clowns who spawn giant rocks and flying saucers in your path during a race. These fools are ruining the game worse than the money glitchers imo.

    (donning a tinfoil hat for a moment) I think R* only ever intended to release heists on next gen (to be one of the main selling points) and the cash modders are giving them a perfect excuse to stick to their plan. Once next gen GTA comes out all modded cash gets zapped, everyone left with $150k. Casino / heists open along with some new vehicles/property and hey presto, Shark Cards are once again the only way to afford these items.

    There's a possibility that heists could be dubious money-wise also. They will (hopefully) be a lot of fun to play, but I have a sneaking suspicion the take home pay will not be all its cracked up to be. You may have to pay for the services of various NPC interactions (hackers or various experts that Lester drafts in), there may even be an entry fee to launch the heist. Perhaps a heist will only launch if 6 players join and overall profit divided up by 6, rather than let's say 3 players attempting it for a better payout.

    I don't think R* will shoot themselves in the foot by making the payouts for heists so high that they neutralise the shark cards.

    When I was "gifted" billions before I had about 50k in my bank. When rock star took it away I was left with 600k. Plus I kept everything I bought. this included a 10 car garage at weasel plaza and two super cars. It was actually fun. it set me up with a nice sum to build on and made the game more enjoyable. i didn't have a crappy car, i didn't have a crappy paint-job. I wasn't automatically last in races because i was using cars with no upgrades.

    Plus I wasn't too rich that i had nothing to work for.
