narcolepsy 581 Report post Posted October 2, 2013 Confirmed not pay to win. All guns, grenades, car upgrades, even clothing and hairstyles need a minimum lv to unlock. Unlocking is only done through doing missions and doing various activites around the city. Money for the most part is easy to get, but not in large amounts. 5kish on a good Deathmatch match can get you max the ammo for any early gun. Hardly confirmation, a person who buys cash still has an advantage at every level. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DozyGamer 445 Report post Posted October 3, 2013 I've been having a real hard time trying to get to play with other players since GTA online went.. well online. I only got into 2 team death-matches and the lag from my shitty Internet connection has been unbearable. The only way I've been making money was through doing liquor store hold-ups and solo missions and it has been a very slow grind, only to get hunted down by other players to kill me and take all my cash while I'm on the phone trying to deposit my ill gains. Yesterday I gave in and decided to get the cheapest cash card so that I could buy myself a safe-house, but as fate would have it, they seem to be down for maintenance. I'm somewhat relieved I didn't take the easy way, but I wonder if Rockstar got enough negative feedback that they're considering removing that option?

Massacre 7646 Report post Posted October 3, 2013 They temporarily disabled buying cash cards. Also, play invite-only sessions, at least until you have an apartment and/or garage. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob 1390 Report post Posted October 3, 2013 Mate, Just log in alone. You don't have to be in a game with anyone else. If that is what you want. Also apparently you can get good coin for selling cars to LS customs. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DozyGamer 445 Report post Posted October 3, 2013 I figured out how to start solo sessions last night but after playing for hours I only managed to get 30k. I didn't know about the selling cars to LS customs though, could make life easier. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You have to put in the work in missions and what not if you want anything higher than a basic pistol and super light armor. Besides, there one very easy short mission that can be spammed for 3k and hundreds of RP very early in the game. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
