Since having 4 people on at once is fairly regular, I think I will add 2 more planes into the ramp level - maybe take out a couple of the more pointless cars (limo etc).
 
Will def be online this eve - crazy busy week at work, so mindless violence is looking good right now!
 
Sorry that this request is so late in the game but, I've requested a membership into the PS3 side. PSN is Terrible-Party. Thanks!

Cool - just added you.

I haven't been online at all the past week due to work, but would be good to get a few online together soon.
 
This has been terribly glitchy lately, so many freezes. @KanieKaned that DM I invited you too is an extremely amazing map to play with a full lobby, but my game froze upon loading :(
 
I've lost a Phoenix that was insured and got automatically uninsured without me noticing it, but I think it was because it was stolen from a mission and they later disallowed that. Apart from that never lost an insured vehicle in this game, and had more than two dozens.
 
Do people still go on Xbox....? :nervous:

Apparently i still have Live so i'd be up for heading on to play sometime if there were a few on.

Yeah she froze up good and proper. After that I was out. Might be on at some point over the weekend. I've got Tuesday and Wednesday off so myself and Maka are gone out in some serious hours.

Anyone heard anything on a release date for 1.12 ???
 
@KanieKaned

:lol: the race where you tried to take me out three times and failed, then I took you out and won was amazing.

Will you be on again later after the game?
 
Anyone discovered the gate glitch? Need at least two people.

Someone stands behind a moveable gate (one that opens in and out, not a roller gate) and the other person walks/drives into it and flies into the sky. I got as far as the army base from the house near the expensive apartment with some randoms yesterday.

Not heard of that one - will try it later!
 
Heists are coming soon....

Xbox people should start going back on for this...please? :(
 
Here's the info on the Spring Updates:

Get ready for lots of exciting Grand Theft Auto Online updates to be added throughout the spring and beyond. Here's a brief rundown of some of the new content, features, and enhancements that you can expect to see barreling down the La Puerta Freeway in the months to come.

SPRING GAME UPDATES

Capture Creator: Coming next week, the Creator community will be able to make their own original customized Capture Jobs and add to the over 3.5 million (and counting) player-created Deathmatches and Races currently available on Social Club. Strategically place pick-ups, define weaponry, set location, and tweak tons of other variables to make your own unique Capture Job for others to take on. We will also be reviewing your homemade Capture creations to stamp standout experiences as Rockstar Verified.

The High Life Update: The High Life Update will allow you to expand your foothold in Los Santos with new high-end apartment options, the powerful Bullpup Rifle, new wardrobe items, the Dinka Thrust motorcycle and three new lavish cars to choose from, including the Super class Pegassi Zentorno. The High Life Update will also feature the debut of multi-property ownership in GTA Online, which means you'll be able to own two distinct properties (with garages) simultaneously. All this plus the new Mental State player statistic, which is designed to let you see just how passive or psychotically unhinged fellow players in your session really are, and a slew of new Jobs.

Heists: Coming this spring to Grand Theft Auto Online, team up with your most trusted Crew members or with random other mercenaries in Grand Theft Auto Online to pull off cooperative Heist Missions for glory and profit. We know many in the GTA Online community have been looking forward to this update — stay tuned for much more information to come.

And later this year, look for even more additions to both Grand Theft Auto Online and Grand Theft Auto V, including more holiday-themed updates, some very exciting Story Mode DLC and much more.

ANd some upcoming updates they are making:

  • The addition of a 'Non-Contact' option for Races. This will allow you to play standard Races with collisions disabled between player vehicles. Other players will appear as semi-transparent and you'll still be able to collide with non-player traffic, structures and other scenery, but this mode - for those who want to play it - will eliminate the "rubbing is racing" mentality that some wish to avoid.
  • Players will be able to call Lester and have him tell his cop buddies to turn a blind eye to any crime you may or may not be committing for a short period of time.
  • As a reward for players who leave feedback on Jobs, there will be some bonus RP granted every time a player likes or dislikes content after playing it.
  • GTA$ payouts will be increased when completing Parachute, Races, Deathmatches and LTS Jobs with less than 4 players.
  • As part of our ongoing commitment to target cheaters and keep the game as fair as possible, we are closing RP exploits and will be adjusting the RP totals of players who we know for certain to have gained illegitimate RP by cheating. Your RP will only be adjusted if you participated in mods, hacks, DNS redirects, manipulation of cloud files, or other similarly nefarious behavior. If you grinded short legitimate missions or otherwise gained a small amount of RP without modding, your RP should not be affected by this correction.
  • Well be fixing the issue where players who had upgraded personal vehicles prior to Title Update 1.10 were only able to sell them for $10,000.
 
So given there is more content on the horizon...how much cash does everyone have in the bank right now?

I've got $1,868,518.00
 
I've got around 500k I think, liking the look of the Zentorno.

The idea of non-contact racing is good as well, stop you cnuts wiping me out.

Me too - but have only just bought the Turismo, so unless it is vastly better performance-wise, then think I'll keep my money for a second property (although don't exactly need a second place).

They also mention "new high-end apartment options", so am curious to see what they are. I really hope there will be an option for a helipad. That would be a definite purchase (or if it involved moving to a new apartment, would also do that).

As for the races - I consider myself a relatively clean driver, and as frustrating as it is to be spun out close to the finish, I think I would still prefer races with contact. Trying to avoid other cars is part of racing - otherwise you may as well just do the race on your own.
 
It states that non-racing traffic is still hittable so it's not just ghosting through.

Yeah I'll wait until further information gets released on the update to see what I'll buy etc. Thinned my garage down to about 5 cars so no need for a 2nd house.
 
No contact racing sounds shit.
 
Anybody up for some possible grinding before this update shows up? Would like to get closer to the mill mark so I can buy more then 1 thing from the update.
