Today's Special Crate shirt is a Vivisection shirt from Liberty City Stories.

Also, I highly recommend switching to an off-road vehicle for the snow

Couple questions:

• Is it possible to turn off friendly lock on? Getting tired of accidentally shooting/punching my friend.
• Can you sell an apartment?

Yes and Yes.

In the Interaction menu scroll down to "Targeting Priority" and switch it to Strangers.

Also when you buy a new house it will ask you if you want to sell your old one. You will then recoup a % of the cost.

OMG OMG OMG

Racing home for the snow!

The snow is awesome! Grab a 4x4 though, it's slippery out there.

It's hilarious to see everyone in shorts and flip flops still running around in the snow.

 

[brokenbeans]

Do I get out of bed early to play in the snow?

It's like being 7 again.

 

[Shining Sunshine]

Looked up how to get these crates. Looks impossible to get.

 

[BigDug13]

Snows cool and all, but damn if it doesn't make some of the repo missions ridiculous, especially rear wheel drive cars.

 

[MrTroubleMaker]

It looks like the tree no movement bug is back with the snow.

The snow may have included some of the old unfixed core. It'll probably fix it self after LS returns to normal.

Quick! Someone check Criminal Recoreds WR exploit!

 

[terrible]

It's pretty easy to get a drift going in the snow. I love it.

 

[Omni]

SNOW <3

They need more variety like this in the next game, I thinks. It's awesome

 

[CacaCabeza]

I'm sorry, the crew isn't playing at the moment You must of played with some other guys. We usually use our mics.

I was in there, but I was in a party with someone else. iamrobk and caca cabeza were others playing. Then a random non-GAFfer who died two times.

Yea it's great playing with gaffers but would be much better if everyone used a Mic.

 

[CacaCabeza]

On a side note would it be considered bad edicate to claim a bounty on another gaffers head? Also the snow is awesome.

 

[brokenbeans]

Wow never been kicked from an invite only session, strange.

 

[bananafactory]

Snow is awesome and love the holiday clothing.

Gettin in the spirit with my friends!

 

[Mastah]

I guess while it's snowing I should put my superior driving skills into use and win shitload of races. I absolutely love reduced grip and sliding. Damn, I miss GTA IV handling big time

My first opportunity to get a crate today and instant success. I wasn't even prepared for it. Late for the chopper, only Maverick, I got passenger with me and other players in choppers going for it. When I got there I tried to crash land it, killed a guy who just got out of his heli and picked up a crate which just spawned few seconds later. Quickly got inside my chopper and flew away, while down there was hell on earth. Felt really good

 

[Marvel]

There's snow? holy shit. Gonna boot this up later.

 

[J4g3r]

The snowballs are pretty epic, especially when the person you headshot with one is standing on the edge of a cliff.

[Always-honest]

Dammit.. No gaming for me today. But tomorrow i will try this.

Don't know. If it is me feel free cause my feelings are if I've got a bounty on my head it's fair game cause that's supposed to be part of the game. Plus I hate being a big target so I usually hope some one gets me quickly and get it over with (doesn't mean I wont fight back depending on my mood. Sometimes I'm in the mood to see how long I'll last).

Also, on a related note, I think I've noticed something. You won't get a bounty from an npc for stealing a car if you are in passive mode.

 

[whiteape]

What's the secret surprise we get when we log in on Dec 24 that Rockstar teased?

Probably just some clothes

Someone told me earlier in this thread that you won't get a bounty on your head if you steal a car that's parked.

Myth... BUSTED.

You do get one.

You've always been able to get one right from the start never not been like that.

I don't really think so, but as a rule if I am in a Crew session and someone has a bounty, I'll just let them go so they eventually get the dough. OR, I'll kill them, and then give them the money for it.

Congrats! I remember getting my first legit Special Crate Drop on PS3 in a completely full lobby. I had a Buzzard, raining missiles down on the landing area, parachuted in, and right when I landed the package dropped, directly where I was. Didn't even hit the ground, which was great, because I had 3 other dots zooming in to my location....so I heli'd out of there in a hurry! Got a t shirt I rarely wear and some gear lol...I should sport that shirt some more. But it was *so* exciting and awesome, beating everyone else to the crate. had my mic on public and I heard several different swears start to layer over each other lol.

The snow is awesome I love it.

It's amazing, I can't get enough of it.

Yea, it's similar to how you can't go into passive mode once you have a bounty on ya :\

Yea ya do! Rule of thumb if you are trying to avoid a bounty, carjack someone, but kill them. They can't place a bounty if they are dead I don't know if this is 100% fool proof, but I always let the drivers run off so they can put a bounty on me. Every time I've seen them die it hasn't happened. That car either wasn't a bounty car, or since the driver was dead they couldn't call. Who knows, but it's worked fairly solid for me so far.

 

[The Elite]

How long is the snow sticking around?

I know of hope that it lasts until at least New Year's Day.

 

[waypoetic]

You can get a bounty from a dead man as well. I used to toss the dude (or dudette) out of the car and then put a hole in 'em - until the day that i got a text from a dead man telling me that I was a dead man; and that i was gonna get wacked and then a bounty was placed on my noggin.

 

[King Cobra]

I can't wait to get home, It's going to be some serious frolicing going on.

That's buh-nanas. ZOMBIE DLC CONFIRMED?!?!?!?! xD

I guess the sure fire way to avoid them...drive your own car :\ On the plus side, I've noticed using the quick interaction menu for requesting your personal vehicle has a drastically reduced cooldown time. I think it worked two times within a couple minutes of each other last week or so. Like, not even a minute apart.

 

[komorebi]

This snow is so awesome, pretty much nothing else to say. Taking a fast bike up to the hills = loads of fun.

yep, though I don't think it happens as much. But maybe that's cause I don't steal parked cars as much .

Yep, I tried that a long time ago when people at reddit were passing that around. it's a myth, killing people doesn't stop bounties :/

hey now, you even acknowledged my tip works. Go into passive mode when you steal a car. That's a surefire way as well. I've been playing mostly passive and for a while was wondering why I wasn't getting any bounties (I'm constantly stealing Ballers. I steal enough cars that I know that I was stealing way more than it should allow me before some NPC gave me a bounty. I went unpassive for whatever reason and stole a few cars and quickly got a bounty... that cinched it for me that it was passive mode that was staving them away.

 

[SpookyFries]

Finally got to level 50 last night. Spent a good chunk of time sending muggers to people and watching them on my TV

 

[DireStr8s]

I dusted off thee ole Liberator for some snow follies. Its all fun and games till someone detonates your monster truck

 

[bengraven]

I'm actually playing on last-gen and I'm shocked at the amount of work they put into it and how good it fucking LOOKS. As someone who lived in some of the heaviest snow in the world for 27 years, loading up the game and seeing that bluish tint to the sky as snow was falling at midnight brought back a ton of memories.

My favorite part of GTAV was the Yankton parts, so I'm hoping this stays around in some form. Maybe the mountainous areas or the parts near the mountains (central map or northwest) can get snow randomly?

and I had just stolen and upgraded a massive truck with lifts.

 

[Smiles and Cries]

went to the flight school just to see if they are doing the lesson during snow yep and can't see shit lol

I would pay some good money for some open world zombie action in GTA O.

Yea that's right, passive *before* you steal is a car is surefire safety. Passive mode is almost perfect now...my main beef is being in a vehicle being driven by someone in passive, the semi transparent thing is weiiird....though it's been a week since I last rode in a passive vehicle....does that still happen?

Oh hell yea, it's ripe for it. One day....maybe....

No, it still happens. My one beef with it is I don't undersatnd why I can't shoot NPCs while in it. They can shoot me. Just cause I don't want to get into it with other players doesn't mean I don't want to rampage against NPCs (or help other players against NPCs without worrying that they will just find it more fun to kill me instaed).

I'd say at the very least make it so NPCs also can't get you back except that would be really ripe for abusing so I think it's better to just let me shoot NPCs. They have some coding already that differentiates cause I can hit NPCs with my car and they can hit me with their cars but I can't hit PCs with my car. So they know how to make the game know the difference.

Excuse me, how do I play GTA Online with gaffers? When I select crew session, I see no one but me in the lobby

 

[MrTroubleMaker]

Anyone want to trade wins with me (land race)? I need 50 each for ps4, and 360. I'm high level and never really gotten around to racing. I kinda want to now, but every time I join a race I get kicked. So I'm given up on "legit" getting them and would rather grind them out.

Wow never been kicked from an invite only session, strange.

I know how you feel.

I suggest you add us as friends instead When a job notification pops up it never says if that person is in the same crew as you so i always ignore those. I only join GAFers and usually play with a steady few (ted, direstr8s, brothershanko etc).
