/gtag/ - Grand Theft Auto General

More like unarmored vehicles obsolete

>Being a poorfag and getting spammed by Agent 14 asking why I haven't gotten a bunker
I just want to save up to get the maze bank tower office but fuck me I'm tired of hearing from this motherfucker

why would you ever want the maze bank tower, especially if you're a poorfag?

>maze bank tower
>Not Lombank
>specially going for the most expensive when the interior is always the same.
And no, the view from Lombank is better.

lombank is a stupid low-res building.

for me the helmet usually stays but the mask disappears every time
what the fuck R*

if its anything like the biker business the equipment and staff upgrades both offer the same speed increase

>Not Arcadia business center master race
>best view
>best entrances
>prettiest building

speaking of view i wish i could buy powerbroker theme but for gods sake i hate those window shutters that ruin the view

I can't say for certain but the staff and equipment upgrades it does fill like its a good 40% to 60% faster than before I bought em.

Still ain't sure about the security guards yet but I bought them fuckers anyways

>he wants to climb 10,000 feet every time he's going to land a chopper on his office

>downtown

>he doesn't fly at high altitudes at all times to avoid rockets
say hello to my flying bike, buckp

Same

...

>he wastes 15 minutes gaining altitude every time instead of just zipping by everything
>he can't dodge homo-missiles

>he cant watch shitters kill each other from the comfort of his office
As i said best view

>chasing people mc/ceo/gunrunning work in public servers with oppressor
>car drives in front of me as i spam missile blowing me up and killing me
>one guy turns a tight corner into an alleyway
>lag spike as i fire and i fire into wal killing myself

the 20k insurance on the bike is a pain in the ass but muh hackerbux got that covered

also with the mc option you can abuse the shit out of it to send back and recall to restock missiles or to recall it from mors

Yo shitters

If you get the Tampa don't equip the mortar launcher, it fucks up the weight distribution and makes you fishtail constantly. Also the Tampa in the GR mission doesn't have the same acceleration as a fully modded personal weaponized tampa.

It's not even the shitters I'm worried about.
The NPC's and grid roads are what kills it for me.

Also, Lombank has comfy beach view.

>he can dodge explosive meme rifles
r u a ninja?

Tampa is already pretty ass-heavy, you say Mortar even makes things worse? Damn

its a muscle car so of course its gonna perform like shit and not like an x80, might as well juice it up for what its good for - blowing shit up

You don't have to dodge meme rifles when you stay on the outer edge of the city at Lombank.

Yeah lombank is nice because you have that extra roof space for parking your heli i guess.
Also you can probably land your meme bike there easy now.

To the user who thought you couldn't shoot as driver in the Insurgent/Technical Custom, it's most likely because of the added window plates on it; the Nightshark has a customization option that works the same way. Plus, I remember being able to shoot with one variant of the Insurgent you get in a sale.

New to the game and just reach level 11 and 80k $. What do?

Do you guys know of any good ways of getting passive income while you are NOT playing the game?

I have a couple methods I use if you are interested.

>rocket poking out of the grill
CUTE!!

Yes.

save up for an office

I am.

Poor bitch has all kinds of weight problems

>Mortar makes it ass heavy
>Dual gatling guns raise the center of gravity to about the driver's head ensuring constant rollover in uneven terrain or freefall
>Slogs through corners like it weighs as much as a dwarf star but can be bullied by civilian cars

If it didn't have such raw firepower I honestly might have passed on it.

>Unlimited bullets
>twenty dumbfire missiles
>twenty grenades for the mortar
>I don't even know how many proximity mines since I keep forgetting to check it out

Yeah, I got used to its badonkadonk and use it regularly, but tossing on the mortar wound up with any acceleration that wasn't in a straight line turning me backwards. You can't really tell until you use it on your own though since the mission one doesn't seem to have any engine mods or turbo.

one thing i would recommend being new is to be very very careful about what you spend your money on. There is pros and cons to everything and if I could go back in time I would have done things much differently.

Buy order
>cheap high-end apartment for heist grinding
>office as a prerequisite for I/E missions
>vehicle warehouse for grinding I/E
>bunker for gunrunning missions

its kind of annoying because when you set firing to dual minigun it messes with the camera angle

also make sure you buy a buzzard, since you can get a free spawn as ceo and it makes getting around very easy and fast

don''t bother with cheap houses or garages, save up untill you can have the cheapest high end one
(apartment with 10car garage that is) so you can do heists. Then save up for the cheapest office I guess

...

...

I'm thinking about getting a tampa but I want to know how easy it is to take out the driver. When I did the Tampa mission I felt like it was pretty easy to spot the driver of the yellow tampa.

always baffles me how you can sit on the back of a truck like that irl or hell even hang outside a car while its going at high speed

the tampa is simply a replacement for the kuruma in missions

if youre going to be shitting in freeroam the oppressor is all you need

this, but you could honestly skip the apartment if you dont plan on doing heists, they can be very tedious if you dont have friends to play with.

the front back and the drivers side are pretty well covered, but the passenger window is completely unprotected, so keep that in mind

and by
>pretty well covered
I mean when used against NPCs. Not sure how it'll fare against some somewhat competent player.

its shit, with all the armour upgrades its worse than a kuruma

>people suggesting Lombank when Maze Bank West objectively superior
>cheap
>close to highway
>easy to land buzzard on without flying up real high

It has ordinary windows but the plating on them are physical objects so enemies will have to aim between the slats in order to hit you. The major downside is the fact the Tampa is all offense, a single explosive will take it out like any unarmored vehicle so don't expect to overwhelm a player unless you manage to ambush them; Even then it's still a risk because of the wind up on gatling gun and the potential to blow yourself up with the missiles.

Good for dealing with NPC threats but I wouldn't recommend it for PvP

remember that doing heist for the first time gives extra 100k each, so even doing the really easy Flecca Job once will almost pay back for the apartment. And there's the +1mil bonus for doing all five of them.

Yeah its almost like physics in our plane of reality has rules to it or something

you guys talked me out of it. So what vehicle besides the oppressor is actually worth it?

Tampa is nonstop fun and can be used during heists

APC definitely
a garageable pocket tank that can fucking swim

if yer standards are that strict then nothing, I guess.

I have been thinking about the apc or the half-track. I rode around with some dude in the half track for like 20 min and nothing could stop us until he flipped it and I flew out. The apc is pretty dope too but those two back seats are like useless

in APC when driving solo you can switch from driver to cannon in like 2 seconds and stay pretty well covered. Half-track may have stronger weapon but the gunner is out in the open

For some reason the Oppressor isn't showing up in my garages and I can't call Mors Mutual to get it back

i heard someone had a problem with the new cars disappearing in the last thread, try restarting and check your garages

if it still doesnt appear then rip

>but the gunner is out in the open
he is when shot from behind, the front of the gun is totally covered.
>in APC when driving solo you can switch from driver to cannon in like 2 seconds
I was trying this but it seems like you have to completely stop the vehicle to switch and that is pretty lame.

Check all your garages and your MOC

I have a large warehouse, is it worth filling up? It seems like the return isn't very good versus just doing VIP missions.

Phew
I requested my personal vehicle from my MOC in the interaction menu and got it back

Man, npcs burn reaaaaly good in this game

Yes they do

that's the shit
*sniffles* :')

I should really make a Nam' outfit

one of my favorite red dead redemption cheat codes is not in gta v online :D
still dont get animals tho :(

yeah, you need to stop. Still to man the gun on the half-track you need to exit vehicle altogether. So whatever floats your boat I guess, I prefer the one that's conveniently usable solo.

hey I'm in this one!

...

does the thermal scope pick up on toasty enemies?

are CEO supply runs worth it for the CEO? They seem like a bad return for time spent.

Does vehicle grinding require large warehouse or just the cheapest?

Get the Mesa warehouse, it is cheap and has access to the largest highways.

STAY #WOKE

I think it's more efficient in the long run yeah. You'll want to hold on to a lot of lower end vehicles so they don't show up in the rotation that much.

All vehicle warehouses are the same, just don't buy the cheapest one cause it's a gang location and firing a single shot means all the Vagos in the area attack you. Buy the one right next to Grove Street.

>setting up your business in a fidget spinner

Or you could just not shoot and have a comfier drop off?

>pump shotgun mk II

>comfier
The location is super inconvenient, it's pretty much isolated from the rest of LS, I regret buying it but right now I'm saving up so I can't buy a new one

>tfw DLC first started coming out
>tfw praying for a cops update
>tfw I will never get a Doa-12 with beanbag rounds that deal 2 damage and stagger people
I mean its obviously a shitter idea on par with stunguns in MP, but damn it all I want to pummel shitters with beanbags while my friends run up and beat them with nightsticks

>tfw can afford swap warehouses and shit but have to sell all the 32 cars I have set up for steal high range ones
I aint moving nowhere.

...

No it isn't. Just take the highway and follow it to the warehouse. It's honestly one of the best ones

What determines if you get chased by NPC buttbuddies on export jobs?
Sometimes I get bombarded by gang vehicles, some other times it's pretty much an easy A to B drive with no opposition in between.
Of course I always choose specialist dealer for max profit, if that matters.

You get the chased if you're alone in a session.
