    instead of turning your xbox off and on (which doesn't work if you have quick startup enable because hitting the power button doesn't turn off the console, but puts it into a sleep/hibernate state), try unplugging the power cable OR quitting out of the game by hitting the home button and then hitting the start button while gta5 his highlighted on the dashboard.  This kills the game and forces it to restart when you click on it again.

     

    I probably have the shittiest connection out of anyone on the board @ <10mb download and 0.5ish mb upload on a dsl connection but speed isnt everything if your connection shits the bed constantly

    I'm enjoying these MC missions for the time being, but for fucks sake, I'm getting my ass beat in that damn fist fight at Tequila. So, I'm on the cusp of filling up my four ops. Coke, counterfeit money, fake ID's and weed. Needed three "steal supply" missions to cap off my weed stash. Holy hell, two were the goddamn Tequila mission. I've gotta stop solo'ing these things. 

    Getting into a fight as Lady Petrol against a bunch of angry bikers armed with pool cues and knives is not a fun task. At least one of the times I did it, I managed to KO the first guy I saw, who happened to be the one carrying. Other times, it was like being Daniel Puder and stuck fighting Benoit, Holly and Guerrero at the Rumble. 

    I got that one last night...I thought going into it that it would just be a fist fight...

     

    I was very wrong.  I know one kept ganking me with a broken bottle, I couldn't dodge or anything.  I could dodge the dickhead with the brass knuckles, and the asshole with the broken pool cue...but that cocksucker with the broken beer bottle just had my number.  I finally got through it by busting through the door with a haymaker and luckily hitting the bottle guy and dropping him then curb stomped him twice while he was down before knux and cue could get to me.

    384 light on my hunter, IB rank 3...I beat Aksis the day after the raid dropped.   

    I played heroic strikes until I hit 365, then spent strange coins on heavy ammo synth (1200+ sc's to Xur).  spent heavy synth on faction rep got me to 372 on raid Friday. 

    Raid got me from 372 to 381.  IB got me from 381 to 384.

    Raid scout rifle is a lot of DPS on pve bosses.

    raid auto rifle is good at pvp and pve it seems.

     

    I have the outbreak prime exotic quest on my Titan, all three characters are north of 380 now.  

     

    my ghorn is 386

     

    kinda bored, hard raid soon yay

    im STILL a dumbass

    I saw Melraz was on playing GTA by himself this morning.  While I was waiting for my coffee to brew, I invited him to a party and shot the shit with him until I took a sip...A SIP of coffee...then I had to go shoot the shit with the toilet (poop joke #1, don't worry, there will be a dick joke somewhere in this mess). 

     

    Nate being the good guy that he is, tells me about all the stuff that just dropped for GTA 5 the other day.  I had no idea.  This is the second time I've been to the board since my third heart attack at the beginning of September.  I've been trying to lay off the video games so much, but I've played a bit of Destiny since the new expansion came out (the new raid is super easy, Iron Banner is happening this week too, spoiler alert, Efrideet is running all things IB now).  I've been exercising (went for a hike today, it's southern WV during autumn...absolutely beautiful outside), trying to eat healthier (for instance banana for breakfast, tuna (in water) for lunch, organic pasta sauce over vegetables for dinner), and I quit smoking cigarettes 5 weeks ago today (which was the day I had the heart attack). Pud tugging is over (told you there'd be a dick joke), I can get on with the GTA story.

     

    So Nate is tellling me about this update, and I find my disc.  I'm helping him get supplies for his counterfeit operation and he lets me know you can have a weed business.

     

    I still have over $12 million in the bank after buying the yacht, not to mention all the Adders on my 2nd character on here so I say fuckit, whynot right? 

     

    I go balls deep & buy a clubhouse with upgrades about two blocks down from Trevor.  I only had 5 bikes for my clubhouse, and that simply wouldn't do.  I had to buy 5 more bikes, and upgrade those sumbitches...go big or go home right?  Around this time I notice for some reason there is a large geriatric group congregating outside my clubhouse...I don't know why.  I've blown them up multiple times, Damien has killed them all with a hatchet, fuckers keep coming back.

    I buy into the weed business, upgrade that, then I'm off to get supplies.

     

    Just like that I'm sucked back in.

     

    Talked to Robert for a bit.

     

    I probably should have listened to Nate and sold my product a little early while he was still on.  We kept getting shit canned lobbies where it would wipe everbody out so you could get some work done (the MC missions pay decent, but theres a lot of "drive here, do X, drive way the fuck off" involved with them and the supply runs).  I wanted to see how much I COULD earn if I waited until my stock was full before I tried to sell.   It should have been over $250k, but...it spawned three choppers for Damien and me to make deliveries.  When I started the "sell" portion, there were only 3 people in the lobby counting Damien and myself,  that changed VERY quickly.   By the time I got to the choppers Damien had already gotten killed once by another player, and the lobby was about half full.  

     

    I hadn't really fucked with anyone besides NPC's all day.  I gave everyone a wide birth to do their thing while I ran supplies, did club missions and fucked off on motor cycles. I deliver 1/3 of the product, coming back around to pick up chopper #3 (damien was finally working on #2 at this point), and this happens:

     

     

     

    for perspective on the 2nd rpg kill, since it's from Damien's activity feed and this is my first attempt at this sort of thing with youtube I couldn't splice this video into the longer video above....plus it's 5am and I've been up for 22.5 hours at this point.

     

     

    I still made right at $200k on that, and the plants still grow even while I'm not there, or logged into the game.  I just need to keep supplies up.

     

    Ended the night in a lobby with a mic-less RUkered, he was able to see the grow operation.

     

    I clipped a bunch of stuff today, I could have probably made a longer video, and may still.  

     

    TL;DR I sent $4.5 mil in game today, made $300k back...and just beat the breaks off BlitheredCow or whatever his name was.

    Because I fucked up

    They fixed infusions so they now give 100%.  The april update made it a lot easier to reach max light quickly with more avenues to attain said light.  Its not nearly as grindy as it used to be.  They fucked up subclasses though, specifically arc and solar hunters imo.
