Thanks everyone for the games.

And big thanks for hanging around Live, had fun doing those jobs. It was quite funny being run over by you in the plane as I then watched it drive off to certain doom hoping that a miracle would happen but alas not be as a nearby fireball engulfed the plane and the fiery red that resulted from multiple explosions filled that dreaded word. Failed.

I don't think anything topped me nicking that fence with the plane propeller and getting a "plane destroyed" during base invaders, I was stunned for a moment and wondering what had happened.

And happy to finally get to play Los Santos Connection to appear and also complete it, GTA Online needs more jobs that length and to include them into the vote screen to make them more accessible.

GG everyone

Good Games guys . Bottle jabbing is fun, haha. And I still come last in the races (or not far from it) .

Yep, those were fun jobs Spec . Forgot how fun GTA could be sometimes. We were both dumbfounded when that plane got scratched so we 'failed' the Base Invaders mission - we must have tried like 5-6 Times and still couldn't pass it lol. Those guards just came out from everywhere.

Then yeah, there was the huge fail on my part when I looked up at the screen and thought you might've jumped out of the plane too early so I tried to steer it to Trevor's hangar... Only to discover about 5 cars and heaps of enemies were still in my way so I crashed and burned gloriously . Glad you found it funny though, haha.

I liked the idea or your method in that mission where you called in a heli to drop us off on the roof of the construction site. Just a shame we got shot to death before we barely even landed lol. GTA definitely needs more actual jobs in the Vote Screen too.

Yeah, Base invaders was my bad, I have managed to solo (on easy) it once but after we failed twice I had no Sniper/Rifle ammo left so I was out ranged by everything plus the quick restart doesn't give you armour either which would be a big help for survivability. Plus I should've stocked up on EgoChasers.

I almost got myself blown up when I got out of the plane some guy fired an RPG at me and to honest when I saw you drive off to the hanger I kind was waiting for the mission pass screen to pop up.

That heli thing didn't work the first time I tried to Rappel down off of it, got shredded and died. I have no other way of getting a helicopter yet, since they don't spawn anywhere during a mission and Lester wouldn't answer the phone, I still need another $400,000 for the Frogger.

Thanks for the long session Live, 3am kinda sneaked up on us.

Will have to go and restock on snacks since I used the last of my stocks during the job when I was being chased by the Helicopter.
The Tennis match was funny, first set was epic.
I was also surprised by the durability of the Private Jet when I was driving down the street, I managed to bump it down one of the Palm streets to get it outside your apartment and it just drove over cars.
I need more missions that need a helicopter, I need to justify that $780,000 Maverick, since as you proved we could have landed on the opposite building and parachuted over, much cheaper than $780,000.

[I_live_4_fun]

Great sesh yesterday Spec . I think we played for about 7-8 hours straight? .

[I_live_4_fun]

Haha, I didn't think I ever could play GTA Online for that long (and enjoy it). Was heaps of fun .

The Tennis match was awesome even if it was a bit laggy. Then there was the golf revenge... I kept thinking you were a freak the whole time haha (in a good way, of course). You had at least 7 birdies I think. The arm wrestling was fun too, even though I lost 0-10... My character is so weak .

Yeah, we could do things like take out all enemies from your heli and things like that too. Would make a good change if scenery from the normal gunfights. Glad we finished up Landing Strip and Cops Capacity fairly easily too. Especially Cops Capacity since that Riot Van was pretty tricky to blow up from anywhere else.

Glad I took on your dare for the parachuting, haha.

[spectre51]

Since we haven't played any other Tennis matches online I could get the stats.
Sets // Games won // Points // Aces // You - Me
2 - 0// 13 - 9 // 75 - 66  //  12 - 11
Quite close, yeah it was a bit laggy but I only had one instance of having a yellow blur fly across the screen.

Hit 8 birdies finally after being stuck on 7 for ages, come close to an eagle as well.
The Arm wrestling was funny since I would just wait and then see "Live requests a rematch" pop up.

And that would be right when I said it wouldn't matter about having a faster helicopter I get run down in the Maverick and have to ditch it.

I loved that the Convoy song was on when we had the truck it was perfect.

It would be interesting to see how much damage that the Granger could put out with 4 inside and 4 outside with AR's.

Yeah the jobs would just open up with more people, having people providing support with snipers or from a heli but most jobs only support a couple of people. We just have to make do with the Merryweather support chopper.

[I_live_4_fun]

Yep, I had a Vaas moment with the arm wrestling . Wasn't sure if I was doing it wrong, so I kept trying again and again haha. That was really cool we both got a lot of Aces in the tennis. I hardly get any in the Story Mode.

Speaking of Convoys, I'm not sure what was the biggest fail of the night There was the special mission car that nosedived to the ground and killed us just after you were telling me about the bulletproof tyres, the lamp post that popped up in front of us out if nowhere as we were flying to the shooting range, or the Convoy truck that couldn't even climb a hill. I might go with the Convoy truck, haha. Can't believe it just slowed to a stop 3/4 of the way up.

[spectre51]

I would just cover both analogue sticks in my palm then rapidly move back an forth. It definitely tests out their durability.
Yeah out wide, max power was a good Ace getting, I showed that with 3 in a row in the second last game but to little to late.

That explosion shocked me considering what some of the other cars had gone through. Must have hit it just right.
That pole popping up happened in single-player every now and again as well, bloody pop-in ruined the landing completely.
The Barracks was bad, the Baller(Look not censored) monsters it for hill climbing.
