So.... Logged on and got the $50 grand and shirt for participating in the Free Mode Event weekend.

Enjoy your "Fake" Vapid T-Shirt from Rockstar.

Also I like how it says 420 on the T-Shirt. lol

Went on a small spending spree and got myself a new apartment with 6 garage slots in a more beautiful part of LS, West LS and traded in my 2 car garage and I also wanted a car, and got myself a Dubsta, which I found near the LS Customs at the airport.

Now I'm just a little bit poor.

I'm curious. Can you make any changes to your character in the next-gen character selector? I haven't even looked at it since I started playing on the PS4.

Yes you can.

 

[Sage Ages]

Yes you can.

After the first time you start up the game on PS4, correct?

The game will prompt you two times to do it, the second time at a later time. It's optional so yes.

If last gen won't be updated, does that mean money glitches won't be patched?

Not a chance. Glitch billions of dollars and then transfer character? How would R* make $ off their precious shark cards then.

But... more people are moving to next gen and PC. Having people pay twice for the same game is profitable.

Oh yeah, that too...

But apparently many people still buy the shark cards and maybe even the megalodon card
I don't know why someone would actually spend $100 for virtual money, but hey it's their money (or their parents' )

I bought the GTA V/TLoU PS4 bundle, yay for free games!

 

[TexRex]

Yes. They just have to stand near the side doors.

I figured as much--in fact, I seem to recall getting into Dan's Savage that way (after finally realizing he was firing his cannons as if to say "Get in!"

The guy in question was merely jumping next to the danged thing.

I'll stick to the Buzzard if I'm expecting passengers.

Is it just me or is the regular MG more accurate than the Combat MG?

 

[TexRex]

I've yet to get a headshot (gang attacks) with the Combat MG but have gotten plenty with the MG. I thought it was just a fluke, but you might be onto something.

Now my reason for dropping by again: If I buy a Merryweather-type Canis Mesa from Warstock Cache & Carry, is it mine to store/modify or is it a Pegasus call-up-and-borrow situation? If it's the latter I just assume hold onto my 80+ grand.

 

[SomePlayaDude]

Not a Pegasus call up. It's gonna be part of your garage.

[m8h3r]

Yoi can steal a merryweather jeep and store it that's how I got mine.

No need to buy one really. I got mine from Merryweather. I just got someone to call the mercenaries on me, killed them all then i had a couple to choose from.

I insured it and keep it in my garage.

 

[driftinziggy]

^same here.. although it isn't sellable if you obtain it this way if that.

 

[Snorevette]

Not a huge issue, to be honest - you're not gonna make up much of the cost of buying the car and upgrades if you sell it. In fact, I'm pretty sure that unless you're buying gold paint and (non-free) chrome rims, you'd still lose less money overall if you trashed a fully-modified stolen Mesa than if you sold a fully-modified purchased Mesa.

 

[TexRex]

I bought it [probably] seconds after @SomePlayaDude answered my question.

No biggie--I wanted it so I bought it. Calling up mercenaries would've required being in a lobby with others anyway, and I generally try to avoid that.

 

[Sage Ages]

I've heard the Merryweather Mesa can spawn in traffic now.

 

[Katiegan]

I've heard the Merryweather Mesa can spawn in traffic now.

Where did you hear that? Can't say I've noticed any. Unless it's a PC thing.

 

[SomePlayaDude]

The traffic on the PC version isn't outstanding aside from the occasional pre-modded cars.

And no Merryweather Mesas on the traffic roads unless I've been slagging or something..

 

[Sage Ages]

Where did you hear that? Can't say I've noticed any. Unless it's a PC thing.

Supposedly, it spawns similarly to how the NPC modified cars spawn and it'll be driven by a regular civilian.

Never saw one unless it's driven by Merryweather. (PS4)

 

[Sage Ages]

I haven't heard to much on it, so I'll assume it's not supposed to happen.
