AxB Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 I hate the fact that, in GTA Races if someone stickybombs your car and you ram them (to make sure they're inside the blast radius) they don't take damage from the explosion. That makes no sense at all, and it's only in GTA races. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RUkered Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Hey Mel, Just wanted you to know that with all this talk of Sandking off-road races, I decided I wanted one. Hopped on a few minutes to look. Choppered up to Sandy Shores, parachuted out, turned the corner, and there sat one in someone's driveway. Drove it to my garage to mod later. Total Sandking shopping time: 10 minutes 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstout Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Hey Mel, Just wanted you to know that with all this talk of Sandking off-road races, I decided I wanted one. Hopped on a few minutes to look. Choppered up to Sandy Shores, parachuted out, turned the corner, and there sat one in someone's driveway. Drove it to my garage to mod later. Total Sandking shopping time: 10 minutes Was it a four-door? Two-doors were all over the place every time we were looking for a four-door. I bought that damn 6x6 back, but I still like the Sandking better. If you're gonna go tumblin' down a mountain, go big, baby. I also love electric cars, and wanted to see if a fully modded Voltic would be worth having. Bought one, it was the wrong one (the one with the top instead of the topless), sold it at a loss, bought the topless one, fully modded it, drove it around for a day and sold it. Fully modded, it's not as fast as a fully modded Coupe like an Exemplar or Felon, and it handles roughly 100 times worse. Oh well. I'd like to fully mod a Panto just for shits and giggles, just to pinball it around the map in psychotic fashion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxB Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 When I was looking for a Sandking, I didn't even make it to Sandy Shores. I was just a tiny bit north of the Vinewood sign when a 4 Door stopped at a junction to let me past. It took all of 2 minutes. Had to buy my Sanchez though. Well, gave up looking and bought it insead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUkered Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 It was a 2 door. That's what I wanted, so it worked out, but I wasn't about to mention it wasn't a 4 door in my post. When I put it in my garage, I had to laugh. Stout's posts about not having 2 of the same type of class were running through my head. I didn't realize how ridiculous my garages are. Here's garage one: (apologies - I don't remember all the actual car names) -Entity -Coquette -Lost bike -Akuma -Jeep -6x6 -beach buggy -Dune buggy -Sandking -Sanchez That's right, get to twitchin' Stout. SIX offroad vehicles, and I haven't run an offroad race in months. I'm ridiculous. To make it worse, I decided to put a Sabre in what I thought was my empty second garage, only to find that, at some point I don't remember, I stuffed a 4-wheeler in it. So make that 7 offroad vehicles. I'm worse than Mel and motorcycles. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstout Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 I bought that new Nagasaki Hot Rod Blazer (the four-wheeler), and it's awesome. It's fast, climbs like a freakin' billy goat, and is about 200 percent more steerable and driveable than the other four-wheelers. It's expensive, but if you like four wheelers, it's a blast. So now I have four off-road vehicles, so I'm not one to talk. I also bought a Panto after test-driving Austrian Sensation Herby's~! model and loving it. Problem is, he never put turbo in his, and I fully souped up mine, and it does a 180 when you sneeze. I took it on one of those missions where you have to lose the cops and I nearly got out of the car and gave up - never did lose the damn cops. Herby's really gripped the road well, so next time I'm on, I'm gonna try taking the turbo out and see how it drives. If things don't get better, it's gone. You can usually find the Sanchez everywhere, except when you're looking for it. Mis was looking for one once and neither one of us could hunt one down. Robert came into the game, and I think he spawned riding one or something. "Hey guys." "We're looking for a Sanchez." "Found one." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 I still haven't filled up one garage yet, let alone two. Last car i got was a Blade and I will probably get a Huntley S once I pad my bank account a bit. Deciding on whether or not to get the Dubsta 6x6, a four door Sandking, or just wait until the next DLC offered in apology for Heists not being here yet comes out.

jstout Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 My main character's two garages are full. If I want something else, something's gotta go. You can (in theory, right, Melraz?) steal the four-door Sandking. Between all of us, we probably have just about every stupid car, fully modded, if you ever care for a test drive. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUkered Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 I definitely would like to test drive that Panto before you get rid of it, Stout. I promise to keep it off the mountains so I don't swan dive into a river in 5 minutes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstout Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 I think it costs virtually nothing to replace. $600, maybe? I've blown one up before, but I forgot how much I had to pay. Herby's Panto drives like a champ. Mine doesn't. Must fix. I spent a STUPID amount of money putting stickers on it, then deciding I didn't like the sticker look and ditching the stickers. I never put the luggage on the top, though, thought it looked stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CSC Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 So I was on, no one else was & I was bored so I just taught myself how to Mary Lou.

J.T. Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Well, looks like there is a new patch this morning and if the news leak is to be believed, we've got another military based DLC aka the Independence Day Pack for our amusement that is supposed to make us forget that Heists are not out yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxB Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 In the Update, we've got a Musket and a Firework Launcher*, a proper Monster Truck on Warstock and a Harley-looking Motorbike on SSASuperAutos, and some Stars n Stripes clothes. So far. * It actually launches fireworks. No idea if they do damage or not though. I'm waiting for it to go dark to see how they look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

odessasteps Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 After the ammonia leak a couple weeks ago, mild panic or at least mild paranoia here is healthy. I did a couple of the new verified races over the weekend and most were not bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
