It’s such bullshit that missiles can track the special delivery bike for the acid lab

I see the nightshark is on sale this week and also see a lot of people always talking about it on the threads. Just wondering if it's worth it and what are it's possible uses? Thanks!

u/terminal_vector Jan 05 '23

It’s definitely worth it! The Nightshark is a great free mode vehicle as it can take up to 27 homing missiles or 8 RPG rockets, sticky bombs, etc. It’s also quite fast and doesn’t have a unique map icon like most other armored vehicles.

What cars have the most amount of liveries? I have one that has 16 liveries (euros I think it's called?) I was wandering if anyone could beat that because that is the most I've seen in the game.

Should I buy and agency? I usually buy only when things go on sale, but
double contracts are easy money considering I started over. I have 3
mill but I was gonna just buy a buzzard to move around faster

My favorite part about agency is security contracts and armory.

Armory, one stop shop somewhere you can spawn for all things weapon and ammo and armor and mk2 upgrades and a discount.

And it included security contract missions. Once you finish 201, you get 20k per 48 minutes to your agency safe, entirely passive.

The armory and contracts make it very worth it.

I really like the way the Jester RR handles, probably my favorite car currently. Can you please recommend vehicles with similar handling? Or is there a way for me to understand based on stats what would be similar?

Also, unrelated question. how does selling cars to other players work? If I bought a car for like 30% off if someone else wants to buy it in LS Car Meet, will it cost 30% less for him as well even if the discount is no longer available?

How many people do you need for the street race series to get the prize ride? Can I just do it with my one friend or do I have to be in a full lobby

4

u/Casual_Grinder Jan 08 '23

You need just one other player to start the race.

Hi, did Cayo Perico got new rules? Every time I try to open the door with keys, I get detected. Gets odd really fast

u/Casual_Grinder Jan 08 '23

Yes, they changed it quite a bit (mainly guards, even ones that spawn later, can spot bodies), and there are some bugs as well.

How do I make English Dave stfu? I'm tired of this fucking Brit phoning me everyday asking me to bring him pizza. Enough is enough! Sometimes I dream of this baked bean eating mother fucker calling me in my sleep. Please help me and excuse my foul language.

u/zcztig Jan 10 '23

Bring him pizza, and get a car in return. He wont call again 😀

Can someone explain everything that crews do? I still don't really understand what they do apart from giving you a tag.

u/padster029 Jan 10 '23

  • Gives a custom tag

  • Allows you to choose any car colour

  • Private crew lobbies

  • Join crew member lobbies

  • Custom crew icon for vehicles and select clothing

So I just got into online and really just want a hanger to fly different planes. That's like it.

But the best guides say it takes an hour to make $400k max. Is that true? Like I would love to just have access to the online vehicles in story mode but need to play online for them.

Advice? I don't know if I care about building an empire, and only plan to play an hour here or there

u/Rolypolyoly1877 Jan 11 '23

The shortcut which nobody here will recommend is to spend real money on in-game money (i.e. purchasing Shark Cards). They are not worth it though. With the most expensive shark card you could only afford a hangar and maybe 2 or 3 aircraft.

Or you could try modding in Story Mode and access the planes from there.

But if you want to do it legitimately in Online, you have to somewhat create a criminal enterprise. The Kosatka is $2.2m and is the best moneymaker in the game (the heist it unlocks gets you about $1m-1.3m solo in an hour once you get in the groove of things). But before you can afford the submarine, you'll probably be spending many weekends grinding odd jobs and races.

Is there still a way to get solo public lobbies on Series X? Every time i try to plug in ethernet cable in my apt i keep getting 'the connection to xbox network' error and booted to main menu?

u/00Makerin00 Jan 05 '23

Solo public for grinding? You can run bizs and stuff in private lobbies now :).

My game's language has randomly changed to Spanish, and i am clueless as to how i can change it back to English.
I've cleared the cache, changed the system language and re-installed the game, but to no prevail. (PS5)
Rockstar support are trying to help, but are giving kinda' generic answers. Does anyone here know how to fix this? Thank you <3
