I don't have a problem with having the camera coming up. I intentionally double-pressed up and the phone came up. Three presses and the camera would come up. One press and the phone would come up.

The phone comes up pretty quickly so I don't know why you guys have to spam the D-Pad.
 
Climbing the crane.... you make that sound fun. It takes 10 minutes to get up that damn thing and then, when you're only 3/4 of the way up, you get shot in the face....

Want a helicopter? If you haven't ranked up enough, you can't call Lester.

Go to Vespucci Heliport you might add. However it's always empty when you actually need a damn helicopter.

Furthermore, if you didn't buy a helicopter during the hacker rush, you're pretty much screwed.

Making this mission the stupidest mission R* has put up.
 
Lester specifically said to bring a helicopter on the briefing for that mission.

To me, that's a call for a Buzzard. And to pass the boredom I get, the 4 times I do this mission, I sing this song.

FLASH! HA AAH! KING OF THE IMPOSSIBLE.

SPD: HE'LL SAVE EVERY ONE OF US. :)
 
It's easier to just do other missions as most of them pay as good, or better and don't come with the frustration.

Calling in a helicopter costs money, and that's not the best way to make the most profits in the game.

I tend to believe it is... It costs $200 ..that's less than ammo in general. And since you don't use ammo while firing the weapons on the Buzzard the initial $200 is the only expenditure

That's why I choose Mixed Up With Coke for grinding. Easy to play, low chance of dying (If you aren't being a complete idiot), and alright payout. You only need to call for the Buzzard and possibly pay for body armor (Alternatively, you could do a quick, one-lap race and keep the body armor) should you need it.
 
I wonder how everyone's just getting your phone number to give you all these jobs. I understand Lester, but.. can I really trust Lamar now? That guy just makes LifeInvader look like.. a life invader!

SCRU U FAESBUK.
 
I don't use much ammo. One time max ammo purchase... don't have to buy again until it's necessary.

Also... when you're a random player trying to mess with a guy who's currently driving a Sandking.. make sure you aren't currently using a motorcycle. I will absolutely park my truck on your bike and drive away in something else. Also, when you think you're in a spot I cannot get to... I will find a way since I'm in a Sandking. :sly:
 
I witnessed a guy ragequit Docks to Stock II because another player took his buzzard which was "required for the mission". :rolleyes:

The other two guys in the mission followed suit and left me on my own. I completed the mission without any issues.
 
Editor and thief is my go to... block NPC car.. pull him out and beat him. No bullets used... steal photos and lose cops.. wait out timer next to Martin ' ... profit
 
You stare at Martin's girlfriend's home as you peek at your stopwatch, counting the seconds as the boss piles up the cash. Forgetting the amount was one thing for Madrazo, but seeing the eyes of his minion wanting that sweet sweet payday. You check that you still have thousands of bullets stowed wherever in your person, and the foldable stacks of super heavy armor in that same hole.

And all it takes is for you to just reach the damn corona.

You'll make money quicker by doing the mission as quickly as possible instead of waiting around for however long to hit 20 minutes.

True.. but my method allows time to tend to household tasks in the meantime.
Start mission... tend to kid 1
Grab a beer and complete objectives.. tend to kid 2
Drive to corona and park.. help wife
Finish and profit.. ADD multitasking at its finest.

Holed up is pretty easy.

Kill all the Ballas, and the dude will drive himself to Martin's with no problem.

Holed up can be a bit of a bitch sometimes....

Go to the drug deal.

Goes to the parking garage turns in, Juan has died.

Wut? Who's Juan?

The trouble is, you don't get any sort of discount for holding off ammo purchases, so when the mission requires you to blow something up, a buzzard is generally the cheapest option (and the safest). If you can complete the mission with one grenade or 3 RPG rockets then that'll be cheaper, but your other expenditures will push you over $200 since you'll be on foot and generally require body armor and a gun for taking out mooks.
 
My second character doesn't have a buzzard, so it's either hope that it's a mission that has one in it, or hope that someone else in the mission has one. I've never used body armor purchases either. I deal without it since it's gone in 2-3 shots anyway.
 
Earlier today when I was customizing my Zentorno (I finally found a color combo I like on the car!!!), I met up with @Speedy6543. He showed up outside LSC and got in my car. He told me to show him just how fast my car is. How could I possibly refuse? ;)

We drove to Paleto Bay (At top speed, weaving through traffic) and stopped at a 24/7 store so I could restock my P's & Q's. Then, we climbed up Mt. Chilliad and almost flew off the side in a really tight section! A bit hair-raising, but we made it to the top and admired the view. A couple minutes later, I decided we should jump off the mountain in my car. I *almost* got stuck trying to get through a narrow gap in between two boulders. Then, we drove into the cable car station and onto the metal structure. I held the e-brake and floored the gas. *Honk!* *Honk!* *Hoooonk!* Then we flew off and bounced down the mountain. :D

We hooned around on the beach and grabbed a Maverick from the Paleto Bay police department. I did some stunts with it like flying through the tunnel under Fort Zancudo (Without touching the ground), then under some overhead walkways and highway signs. We finished by grabbing Buzzards and causing havoc at Los Santos International. I hadn't planned to really play with anyone, despite hosting a crew session. I was originally just going to take some photos of my car and then leave, but I'm glad I stayed. :)
