How does it all work then?

Is it a free-roaming thing with other players? How many can be on one map?
Not sure how it actually works really. You can roam around the map and see other players, but I have no idea who you're "paired" with. The free-roaming is only a minor aspect though, and it's mainly the various activities (deathmatch, races, missions etc.) and heists that make multiplayer great. But again, I'm not really sure if you're limited by regions or whatever.

Ah, I see. Just tried the Spray shop but didn't have any option of buying insurance. I'll try putting it in this dude's garage.

Randomers on the street are telling me it's a sweet ride. First time I'm driving carefully, I even slowed down at red lights and everything ffs. :lol:

The first time I ever found an Adder I was flying through North downtown and launched off one of those abrupt hills straight into another car, promptly blowing up my new prize...

Can anyone tell me if its worth digging up the game and playing online? I have not liked it in the beginning and not sure whether it has improved. Also this caf crew I read about, what is it and what do we do there.

The crew is here:

http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/crew/redcafe

I love this game, although I barely go into random lobbies online. They are fine if all you want to do is fight against everyone in there, but that gets boring pretty quick (at least to me). Pretty much all the time I spend on GTA Online is with people from the crew in the various game modes - missions, races, survival, heists and some of the newer game modes...as well as just screwing around in free roam.

So it just gives you decent people to play the game with, rather than some of the random twats you get :) What format are you on? The majority of active players are on PS4, although people seem to be taking a break from the game at the moment, but there should be some other people on PC now.

Here's the crew thread to give you a better idea..

If you wanted to join then you can do that from the first link - let me know your username and will add you.

No problem - am not sure how many people are active in the crew on PS3 - if you head here and signup, then you can view people by platform (I think!)

http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/crew/redcafe
You can see members from each platform on http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/crew/redcafe/gtav/PS3 (replace PS3 with whatever platform you want). Only people who have actually been playing Online in will show up in the list though, I think (at least I only see myself for PC). But if you view the crew while in GTA you should see everyone on your platform who's in the crew.

Is there a minimum level you need to reach before you get the pre-order bonus for GTA Online?

Sounds like it, did you get the pre-order bonus for single player?
Yup, only on Franklin right? When activating the game it even said i was activating the game, pre order single player bonus and pre order online bonus.

Trying it now. After he went off to the left (first time he goes off the suggested route) we made it to 0.73mi from the destination before he flew off. Now he's gotten up to the path again, and fallen off it whilst trying to turn himself around...twice...

We are upside down. He's running aw...I think it's safe to say he's failed this. Not even bloody close.

I've borrowed my brother's copy of GTA so I've just gotten back into online and transferred my character over. Haven't played since the PS3. What do I need to buy in terms of vehicles and weapons? I've got a million to spend or so.

Car wise you'll want a Zentorno if you haven't, then after that an Armoured Kuruma.

Cant even complete the scope out mission for fleeca right now. Always end up falling through the map and screen going white in the end.
