You can. I saw a video of some dudes firing at each other while they were up in the air attached to Cargobobs. :rofl:

I'll see if I can find it...
Hmm... can you hook onto something while it's upside down, d'you think?

Not sure, I've wondered that myself.
Though I would think so.

Yeah, you can host a private session. When you are in singleplayer, go the menu, scroll to online and select join session, then you can join an open one, create private one with buddies or go solo.

Besides, GTA hasn't really explored anything properly Southern. It's a good opportunity.

As much as I would love to go to New Austin, I'm not sure if Red Dead Redemption and GTA are set in the same "Universe" or
"Setting". In Red Dead Redemption many characters referred to California as California instead of San Andreas.

It would be awesome to go to Carcer City or Cottonmouth, the settings of Manhunt. Heck, Bullworth would be awesome to visit in GTA.

Cottonmouth would be interesting as it's sort of a mix between Tampa and New Orleans.
it is ultimately class which divides us.

That's what's pissed me off more than anything...we don't get new content sooner because of these jackasses.
As well as other issues being ignored, like the black or white crew tees when you try to put it on in the store or your house (they're supposed to be the crew color)...this has been a problem for a while.

Just discovered an easy way to make money (no exploits, this is all legit :p ).

There a mission called Potshot where you go steal a van of weed. I did this one a while ago and the problem is that it's packed full of guards, and more show up if you get too close to the van.

Well, I did this mission with Mushet and some other dude a couple of times, and if you smoke the two guards guarding near the entrance and NOT enter the farm (or whatever it is), wait about 20 seconds, the van will leave the farm. Smoke the driver, hop in, nice easy ride to Trevor's with a payout of $7,000 and like 1,350 RP.

Where's the fun in that? Madrazo's mission, you kill one guy, ditch the cops, drive to his place, and get about the same, and they're starting to get damn boring. Some of the lower level missions for Gerald are pretty nice because you get to have an actual fight.

With another Tank or the Ocean maybe...I literally can't think of any other way to destroy the bastard.

On a separate occasion I plummeted a Jet into one and it survived. Not sure if that was lag on my side or the indestructible machine, though. Basically, Tanks are a murderers best friend.
