Just had a lot of fun doing The Lost Santos Connection. It was five guys including me at first, the coke was destroyed at the part where you hack a laptop at the depot. I did the hacking just fine, in hard difficulty to my surprise (bad experience in the past with this mission). When we retried the mission, it was only me and another guy, who was smart enough to get a Buzzard and blast everyone while I hacked the laptop again. Even the airport part was a breeze with the Buzzard. Sadly, when we were chasing the plane that was meant to be destroyed, either our helicopter failed or one of our own rocket's explosion hit it (I was the one shooting) and we fell right next to the military base. This dude tried to jump with a parachute from a small mountain and fell to his death. I lost the mission less than a minute afterwards, as the plane arrived its destination.

BUT IT WAS REALLY FUN.
 

Many days online - played, a lot of places - discovered, a lot of ways - passed, one behind the wheel or cruising with my crew. These roads led us all the time, so I wanted to dedicate this last (past-gen) hyperlapse video to roads.​

Before going into the final hanger take a ride to the end of the runway. You'll see the getaway plane.
Throw a sticky onto the planes nose, and detonate when it gets close to the hanger.
You might even have time to catch the explosion on Snapmatic. :D

Oooh, that truck. It's slow. But I think I could find it anyway. It usually spawns near the desert.
Not that bad when fully modified, weight helps bounce off ram attacks too.
 
No, the range is limited. The end of the runway may be too far for all I know, but when it tries to take off it flies right past the hanger you're in.

Might try it out later to see how far we can go. Personal vehicle at the airport with sticky and go from there.
 
Do sticky bombs have unlimited range? Say I put a sticky bomb on something at Los Santos International Airport, then travel to Paleto Bay, would I still be able to detonate it from miles away?

Unfortunately, no. Once you are no longer within a certain range of a sticky bomb it'll just simply despawn.

Aaaand tree'd.
 
Lets add to this.

Say you started a car chase in the airport and put a sticky on the chaser, and leave it there.

As the chasee, your mad l33t hax0r driving skills has led you to Paleto Bay with your cars still intact and both cars pretty much at furthest 3 cars away from each other. But the question is: will that sticky stay?

Now THIS is worth making an experiment.
 
Cops online are really pissing me off. No matter what you do, they ALWAYS find you. If you kill someone with a suppressed weapon FAR AWAY from ANY civilian, you can still get a wanted level. If you are flying a helicopter and have 4+ stars, police helicopters spawn directly in front of you, FACING you, so air chases last forever. Additionally, the gunners in police choppers have aim that is way too accurate (Their bullets hitting a fighter jet soaring past? Oh hell no). I've heard bullets flying past my helicopter when I'm out of the police chopper's field of view. Another major flaw with the police AI is if THEY ram YOU, you are punished. You can also just be standing around and they will attack you - just for standing too close!

Yes it will.
 
Also, never drive behind police cars. I find they glitch out and completely stop (Mostly in Online, but a bit in SP as well) and you get a star. The only time that happens to me is when they are chasing other AI, but still...

Here's an idea.



Don't break the law. :P
 
*In a heated race online"
*Leading the race on the final lap*
*Notices guy behind is catching up fast*
*Remembers catch-up is enabled*
*Takes a deep breath*
*Looks at the driver behind*

So I know many don't fancy this Dom guy. However his latest video could be of some use for some. For the record. He annoys me but he does bring decent info at times. as well some crap info.
