I was thinking about the trucking missions from SA too. I miss doing that :/

 I for one didn't try it on cinematic view, but I will try it on my second run of the game soon. Just only thing is the ending kinda sucked. Has anyone found the club where the lost hang out at? I found it once with Franklin but, don't remember where it exactly is.

 

Their base, or the Bar on the highway?

I found the one near the taxi company, and the airfield (from earlier missions) are there anymore then just the ones i found? I like Johnny he was fun to use in TLAD...until T had to make a country hot dog with Ashley and killed him....now the lost get on my nerves. I just wanna hunt them down and kill them! ALL of em'

I just hit the 74% completion mark, and I am having a blast with this game so far. Looking forward to the online coming on tonight at 9PM AEST.

 

Just a quick tip to anyone on the last mission and I won't spoil what happens but 

when asked to choose an option on your phone, please in the name of all that is holy choose Option C

Those were the only one's I've found also, apart from the random spawns on the highways, sorry

oh okay I was just wondering if there was, respawns are okay with me haha

i'm at the 80.2% mark still tying up loose ends and doing replays since i had to get used to the controls.

Im loving it and at like 16%, taking my time don't want the story to end.  Do a bit of story, off to do random stuff, bit of story.

Yeah same here really. I like to polish things off as i go along so it'll be a long time before i get to 100%. Currently sitting at the 42% mark.

One thing I was wondering with the Online launch already under way - If I kill or am killed by another player, what happens with my money? Do they get it all, a percentage or nothing?

 

Apparently if you're killed and you haven't deposited what you're carrying, then it will remain in your wallet that falls out on the street and others can steal it.

It's happened to me and I just got an impound notification when it did, now one vehicle I had for Michael was in his garage, I had made completely chrome just recently disappeared. Same went for Poppy's car I jacked after she crashed, in Franklin's garage and it turned into the same one but just a normal version not hers(this was before I read about the garage glitch).

Since that happened to me I haven't had any issues with them disappearing in that short of time either. Didn't know yours was being eaten within 5 seconds, so yeah that is a bug.

 

You try to steal as much as possible in a target area and aggregate all the car together to blow them up. That's my purpose but when you try to find more car by walking further and come back to add more car to the road some car will disappear roughly 2-3. Because i count it and it's freaking me out because i want to use RPG to shoot and continuously cause explosion together with approximately 10-12 cars. However, you can't do it...maybe there is a limit. So i still pondering what's the reason...it might not related impound at all. 

Finished main Storyline with 1.7 billion in every character's bank.

Still at 60%.

 

Forgive me for asking... legitimate funds? Or cliched funds? (well as legitimate as robbing banks can be, you know what i mean :p )

 

I'm finding most of my earnings come from massive investments in rival companies before i do a mission that would greatly affect a business. You can make mega bucks like that!

Since GTA:Online is still have issues (I had to make a new character, initial race marker was starting the race when driven over etc) I hopped back onto solo play. I haven't messed with this much, but I am curious. If I have purchased a car via a website, if I take it out for a spin, leave it or it explodes, will be in my garage or at my house next time I choose the character or will I be out $650,000?

 

Also, do water vehichles at the dock act like a garage? Multiple boats can be docked and chosen from, and returned on their own if left behind?

 

Lastly (sorry guys/gals), tanks & helicopters? Same deal? (and where are these parked?)

Legitimate funds. Not used a single cheat so far and plan not to use it ever. 

 

Anyway, this is only possible if you complete Lester's 4 assassination missions after main story line. But you have to complete the first Hotel Assassination mission from Lester for the story line to progress. Then follow the guide posted on gtaforums and it's pretty easy to dump all money in stocks and watch them double or triple. It's a domino effect. The more you have to invest, the more money you make. It is possible to max out at 2.1 billion dollars per each character depending on how much you make in final heist.

Helicopters purchased by Michael or Franklin are stationed at the Helipad near the docks in the south part of the city map -- Trevor's are kept at the airfield in Sandy Shores.  Water vehicles are kept all at the same dock, you can choose which one you want when you get there.

 

If your car explodes, it'll come back to your garage -- where people have issues is taking the car on a mission and it gets lost or loses mods.

Thank you for the response.

 

How is everyone finding it so far? Stable?

It is incredibly unstable as far as my experience goes. Jobs crash, if you time out sometime you have the exit the game completely, and timing out is 50/50 at this point, so it is incredibly frustrating. Really rather annoyed, barely making it to lvl 5 with a few things done but overall, due to the amount of people on (I assume) it is a really ridiculously inconsistent experience. This is what it'll likely be like as a PS4 user with games like Destiny/The Division for a while unless their online infrastructure plans ramp up. Not trolling but this does make me (anticipatory) excited for Xbox One's 300,000 servers compared to its current... 10k or 30k servers..

    • First time clicking on a Sayan Sen article after he started making clickbait, vague headlines recently. Didn't read, just came here to say the headline doesn't look like very cheap, vague clickbait this time. Are you okay?
    • Good review, and yeah the benchmark breakdown is pretty clear but also a little messy in a good way. It’s kinda interesting to see where the RX 9070 GRE slides in between the 7800 XT and the 9070 XT , especially when it comes to AI tasks and Blender style workloads. The side by side with Nvidia’s RTX 5070 and 4070 makes it feel obvious just how competitive the mid range GPU scene has gotten lately, and that’s great for creators and gamers too since you can pick based on your priorities rather than only chasing one single thing.
    • That's it. I finally uninstalled Firefox because they often keep pushing buggy updates, only to test them later and make users suffer. No longer is it my alternative browser to Edge. What a waste of energy. Firefox is bad for the environment, just like Chrome (wasting RAM/energy).
    • Microsoft Weekly: new Surface, Windows 11 26H2, and more by Taras Buria This week's news recap is here, with Microsoft announcing Windows 11 version 26H2, launching new Surface devices powered by Snapdragon X2 processors, GTA VI preorder date and cover art, fresh Windows 11 preview builds, a quirky phone-sized e-reader with a physical dial, and more. Quick links: Windows 10 and 11 Windows Insider Program Updates are available Reviews are in Gaming news Great deals to check Windows 11 and Windows 10 Here, we talk about everything happening around Microsoft's latest operating system in the Stable channel and preview builds: new features, removed features, controversies, bugs, interesting findings, and more. And, of course, you may find a word or two about older versions. Windows 11 version 26H2 is now official. Alongside Windows 11's new preview builds released this week, Microsoft confirmed version 26H2, which is coming later this year as an enablement package based on the same platform as versions 24H2 and 25H2. A newly published blog post details what IT admins should do to prepare for the upcoming launch. Next, we have new Windows 11 bugs. Users report that this month's security updates for Windows 11 cause all sorts of issues, including BitLocker bugs, OneDrive issues, black screens of death, and third-party integration in Office apps. Microsoft has not confirmed those yet, but it acknowledged other issues with its operating system. What Microsoft has confirmed is a bug where Recycle Bin delete prompts display internal file names instead of actual ones, and a year-old Windows JScript compatibility bug caused by security-focused engine changes. Moving to more positive news, Microsoft and Adobe are working on improving Windows performance in popular creative apps like Photoshop. Thanks to SPGO optimizations, users can expect up to 20% better performance. Finally, we have a few useful articles that can help you recover your PC or make it perform better. For one, we published a guide detailing what to do if your computer cannot boot after a clean Windows 11 install. There are two important steps you can try to get your system back to working in no time. Additionally, there is a more detailed guide on various CPU performance modes that could notably improve performance. Windows Insider Program Here is what Microsoft released for Windows Insiders this week: Builds Canary Channel Builds 28120.2315 and 29613.1000 These two builds include a new built-in audio driver, improvements to audio Settings, and more. Dev Channel Builds 26300.8697 and 26220.8690 Not much is available here. Some File Explorer improvements, Start menu enhancements, bug fixes, and more. However, build 26300.8697 is now officially marked as version 26H2. Updates are available This section covers software, firmware, and other notable updates (released and coming soon) delivering new features, security fixes, improvements, patches, and more from Microsoft and third parties. This week, Microsoft announced its newest Surface devices powered by Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon X2 processors. There is the 12th-gen Surface Pro and the 8th-gen Surface Laptop. Both devices feature little to no visual differences compared to their predecessors from 2024, and most changes hide inside, including a better processor, faster graphics, enhanced NPUs, and more. The Surface Laptop also received a new haptic trackpad. Mozilla is currently working on a major Firefox redesign, and earlier this week, it published a roadmap of upcoming features and highlights of the upcoming "Project Nova" rework. Files, one of the best file managers for Windows 10 and 11, has been updated in the Preview channel with a long-requested feature. Tree View is finally available in version 4.1.4, allowing you to quickly browse deeply nested folders without leaving the main view. In addition, the update improved the Windows Fonts folder, allowing you to preview each font without opening the default viewer. Rufus, another useful Windows 11 utility, also received a notable update. Version 4.15 arrived as beta with important fixes for silent Windows 11 installation. It also includes patches for ARM-based Windows PCs, OneDrive removal improvements, and more. Here are other updates and releases you may find interesting: Microsoft faces shareholder lawsuit over masking AI costs and slowing Azure growth Microsoft now allows you to tweak Visual Studio to new extremes Microsoft brings Planner Agent to all Microsoft 365 Copilot users Microsoft fixes one of Excel Copilot's most frustrating limitations Microsoft will finally let you sign in to Edge with a Google account Here are the latest drivers and firmware updates released this week: NVIDIA 610.62 with support for Empulse and various fixes. Reviews are in Here is the hardware and software we reviewed this week Earlier this week, we reviewed the DuRoBo Krono, a portable, phone-sized e-reader with some interesting physical controls. This device has an Apple Watch-like dial for page turning, frontlight adjustment, and more. Software is simple and no-nonsense, but it also lacks some useful features and customization. Overall, the device proved interesting, but not flawless. On the gaming side Learn about upcoming game releases, Xbox rumors, new hardware, software updates, freebies, deals, discounts, and more. Forza Horizon 6 received two big updates this week. Alongside the Series 2 content update, developers pushed plenty of bug fixes and balancing tweaks. However, they also had to acknowledge the Eliminator CR-farming exploit and shut down the online mode temporarily. Luckily, only a few days later, another fix arrived, which re-enabled Eliminator and patched the exploit. Microsoft announced new games for Game Pass subscribers. Those include EA Sports FC 26, Junkster, Call of Duty: Vanguard, Abyssus, RV There Yet?, and more. Some existing games are leaving the catalog, so be sure to check out the full list here. New games are also available for GeForce NOW subscribers, and they include Embers of the Uncrowned Demo, Aphelion, Megastore Simulator, OPERATOR, Citizen Sleeper, and more. Rockstart Games had plenty of GTA-related news this week. For one, the company gave GTA V players another free update. Those still playing the game on Xbox One and PlayStation 4 are no longer required to pay $40 to upgrade to the latest-gen version. More importantly, Rockstar Games revealed the GTA VI cover art and announced the preorder date. The Epic Games Store is giving away two games: Citizen Sleeper and Roboeat.
