imports/exports? more like sharkcard/timewaster update.

are you joking? This update provided a set of vehicles that imo made this game worth playing

That rocket voltic is my stuff

[Rally]

the new Elegy upgrade was worth the update

imports/exports? more like sharkcard/timewaster update.

the ruiner 2000 (the most expensive car in the game) is only worth 25-30 hours of your time. less if you use drugs

[The Subject]

I love the new ruiner. It does what a car doesn't.

If you run outta traction power going uphill, the parachute always makes you go forwards. You can climb the chili mountain like this.

Basically this. Thank forget I'm getting my next payday this week, because I seriously don't understand how anybody has fun grinding missions for 30 hours or whatever it takes.

I don't understand how you could have fun buying something with real life money for a toy in a game (seriously, you have to get the $70 one to afford that car rally was talking about)
I also agree with you though, "only 25-30 hours" of grinding is far too much time for me to justify spending to buy a car in a video game

I think, in the end, I'd just choose to play a game that isn't literally making fun of its players

[Rally]

"only 25-30 hours" of grinding is far too much time

I have 800 hours on the game. My friend has 700. Most people I know who play the game have somewhere in the 200-300 range. GTAV is the 3rd most played game in the world so far this month. There are currently 90,000 players online. So far today, over two million hours have been clocked in by online players.

For the most expensive car in the game, a car that can jump in the air and shoot missiles and a bunch of other stuff, 30 hours is nothing. I don't just sit down and grind for 30 hours at a time, nobody does, I'm playing online with my friends, having a good time, and I dedicate a small portion of that to grinding money. We put our back into it before the biker update and averaged $1.5m a day. If you put in 1 hour solo a day, you'd have it in less than a month. That's for the most expensive thing in the game except for some of the super yachts (which go on sale). Most goals are much more attainable in comparison, most of the new milspec stuff is under $2m and the elegy upgrade is less than $1m.

If you don't have time to play videos games, that's your problem. It's not Rockstar's fault lol, the system is fine. And it supports the game too which keeps it alive.

There are currently 90,000 players online. So far today, over two million hours have been clocked in by online players.

if 90,000 people put in 2,000,000 hours, then each of them has played an average of 22 hours that day

[Rally]

if 90,000 people put in 2,000,000 hours, then each of them has played an average of 22 hours that day

And if they spent half of that time grinding they could've realistically earned $2,640,000 in that time, which is enough to buy a vehicle warehouse or almost any of the new cars

[McJob]

All I'm saying is that in most games, you can unlock the entire story's worth of content in under 20 hours, wit no grinding/repeating the same content over and over again.

[Doughboy]

ive played dark souls 2 for 32 hours
would i rather play dark souls 2 again or grind for a single car in gta v
what a hard choice.

[Rally]

I mean you don't have to grind... there's tons of ways to earn cash in the game if you can't stand the thought of doing the same mission more than once a day, just some ways are more efficient than others lol

I said 25-30 or less for the most expensive land vehicle in the entire game. It rocket jumps and shoots missiles. For the actual high end vehicles like the new Skyline, you're looking at 3-4 hours

hurrr i have 3-4 hours in hospital tycoon

Could you consider all the auxillary items/vehicles in Online as story content, though?

[JumboMuffin]

damn they weren't joking when they said there are a lot of modders on this game :o
some guy dropped only 250k on me on my first multiplayer lobby :I

[TheBaconator]

There is nothing wrong with how much things cost in GTAV.  It's free DLC.  Every single item is 100% obtainable with in game cash.  If you don't like the game or how things are priced because you're too loving stupid to figure out how to make money after GTA Online has been a thing for over 3 years now, don't play it.  That's your own problem.

Also Dark Souls 2 is objectively the worst game of the series.  Thanks for further asserting your stuff taste.
