Thanks for your hard work, excited for the changes.

will this patch also fix the vehicle storage glitch, where when you store you vehicle and try to pull it out it becomes impounded?

I'm honestly diggin' all of this, but I think roommates/couple housing should be a thing too

This is the one part of the entire update I’m not looking forward to. An hour alone scuba diving is torture enough for 100k.... Otherwise great update.

I didnt do a lot of scuba, but i think the payout of the loot should stay the same.. because it is torture, but now you will see an increase of drug related crimes because of it...

Not added:

Chrome wheels. @Muroko

How about vehicle storage or the fact you can’t customize boats?

Nothing is stopping you. From a technical standpoint, there needed to be some kind of "union" to allow for two or more people to share a house (this code will be reused for businesses). "Marriage" is just the process that made the most sense for shared housing, especially considering the cost.

I barely trust my roommates with my microwave, let alone a million dollar ring.

Tattoo preview is appreciated 110% thanks for That one, I literally have a note pad of tattoo combinations lol

Awesome, just awesome guys.

Always my favourite part

Hotfix

- Police cars can only be driven by police
- Supercar garage fees increased to a max of $10000
- Minimum garage fee of $200 for every vehicle
- Supercar fuel consumption increased to match motorcycles

I like all of those things except the police car one, I’ve always wanted to steal one ?

 

edit: does that min fee apply to emergency vehicles aswell?

Yes, both factions were using the storing/pull for cheap/quick repairs

Really... $200 to pull a bicycle out... Screw your heads on.

I hear the frustration in voice  but please do not pretend to think that this does not happen without a lot of though and consideration (oh and sometimes a mistake or two).  We work pretty hard to provide a place where all people can have fun.  Sadly a lot of people find loop holes and abuse things and that is really the root cause here.  If the actions of a few are chasing many away then it needs to be addressed.  The Devs are always trying to find a balance but sometimes we need to put a stop gap in to stop bad behavior while they can work on a longer term - more balanced - solution.  I get you are frustrated but please don't go down the road of insults.  

we get $200 every five minutes or so. for doing nothing.

It's silly though. Shouldn't be a thing. Free bike, $200, $20 bike, $200. It is something that needs fixing, maybe I used too stronger way of relaying it, eitherway.

I can't even say if it was intended but ffs it's $200... you make that in 5 minutes just for being connect to the server.  Relax - there are bigger fish to fry.

Meh. Eitherway, I hope it gets reversed.

I am trying to understand what is the problem of adding singleplayer mods into the server? I feel That the AI needs to be more envolved in the gameplay, allow AI police stop players and police players stop AI drivers. I am in a big city but I feel like I'm being watched and monitored 24/7, because there is no interaction with the AI, ems can't heal them, police can stop and arrest them, It is not realistic that all the focus in a big city of the size of Los Angeles has focus over 30 people.
