    I'm a level 16 PS3 online player. Im in the ACAS crew but it doesnt seem to be of benefit to me as other ACAS when online usually reject invites and dont seem to send invites to other crew. (Not knocking ACAS at all, I dont know anyone in it offline anyway)

    So this is a cry for help. Im level 16. Ive 1 car and no gaff in the game. I have about 4 weapons. I have about $40k cash. I cant win races.

    Are there any players that are up for forming a crew, or inviting me to their crew. I play regularly (although I will be offline next week)

    If someone was willing to do a bit of "handholding" with me to help me get cash and RP/JP i am willing to help out in return.

    My PSN name is: TheFaceman101. (I've about 5 online friends so feel free to add me!)

    I'll add you later on PSN is sparkysrovers. I'm only lvl 33 or so but I add friends before crew even though i am part of the BRDS & ACAS crew but i hardly ever get crew members on missions etc

    BRDS is my active crew though


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 115 ✭✭Arturo Bandini


    I'm also on the look out for a new crew. I'm in a crew with over 150 people at the minute, and a good lot of the players in the crew are not loyal. I've been at war with a few crew members over the last few days, which I hate. Don't understand why people join crews if they're going to kill crew members.

    Would definitely be up for joining a crew with more reliable players.

    I'm a rank 51 player who plays most nights.

    Here's some racing tips - http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2057114080

    I'd love to help you level up but I'm on Xbox only.

    IMO the best way to get quick RP and money legitimately is through the survival missions. Play Boneyard and Processed, learn where the bots spawn and where the good players kill them from. I'm sure you'll realize it soon enough but just in case - the only way to win is to pick a good spot and stay there. You might survive one round of running around, but otherwise you're dead meat, especially with the low ranked guns.

    In boneyard, from where you spawn go behind the grey pre-fab or the wooden pallet to it's right. Stay in cover and pop out when your shot is on.

    In processed, go into the shed slightly ahead of you and to your right, and go inside the big skip at the end. It's hard to explain, but try to stand at about half way along inside the skip, so you have a view of what's going on out there while your player stays in cover. Ignore the helicopters.

    From one of those you should easily be able to make it up to the eighth wave at least, even if there's no other good player in it. If there's 2 good players, you'll make it to 10th wave every time. Keep playing survivals until you get a good feel for how to win them, it should only take maybe 3/4 tries before you get the knack. After that it's money in the bank!

    I can gift you a few mill if you want but don't know to transfer money to you


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,181 ✭✭✭bennyx_o


    Added you a while ago. Try to get on most nights

    Thanks for all the replies (and support!). I'll be online tomorrow so if anyone is up for a game... :)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 698 ✭✭✭sin0city


    Hi lads. Only started online a few nights ago.

    Would ye be interested if I started a crew for this thread?
    Share money equally, don't kill each other and do a bit of everything.
    I'm on after nine most evenings.

    Anyone interested post or send me your PSN usernames and I'll set it up and post when / if it's done.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6 john.mac


    added a few of you in this thread. usually on most evenings until i go back to college


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,813 ✭✭✭Randomfriend


    Sup lads, I've had gta since it came out but barely ever played online, gave it a lash the last 2 days and a bit lost on the point of it all, on level 8 after repoing a lot of cars and stealing some drugs.. Have a garage and about 2 guns..

    I'm assuming all the fun happens in crews then, add me anyone if you like! EtcherSketcher is my PSN,

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2057044413

    I'm in Boards Crew 2, 1 is full, so apply to 2. I've no idea how active either are thou, but I'm alive at least! Just send a request n stuff via the social club.

    What's your ID i'll add you later if you want to wreak some havoc and whatnot tonight :P

    I'm up to level 53 now, a pro noob :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,497 ✭✭✭Nick_oliveri


    Applied to 2. Username is malongorph.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,015 ✭✭✭✭Mc Love


    I always find adding players on here is more useful than the crew, is there a crew we can set up for the more active members online from here? So that we can get the extra rp

    I second this. I'm already in boards crew but when I send out in game invites they usually get declined and there is very little in terms of collaboration.

    So we should make it happen ourselves!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,813 ✭✭✭Randomfriend


    I'd be up for making a new crew too, and all the people still alive from between the 2 boards crews and beyond could come together then. I'm finding 2 pretty useless atm.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,497 ✭✭✭Nick_oliveri


    if there's a way to see which players in the crew are actually active after a few weeks the crew leader could clean it up every now and then so you don't have any inactive players.

    anyone gonna set this up? I'm like level 11 so I'm noob with no street cred.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,813 ✭✭✭Randomfriend


    But a fine noob you are!

    Gna go on and wreak some havoc now for a while. Hope to god I'll unlock a few new missions soon or something thou, anything interesting happen beyond lv 60 odd lads?

    Gna start saving up to buy a super car too, have a fully modded off roader, muscle car, motorbike and a sports car, so super is the way to go next methinks :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,015 ✭✭✭✭Mc Love


    I'm currently making money with this bringing cars from sp to online glitch. Have two characters doing it so raking in the cash


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,015 ✭✭✭✭Mc Love


    Made a crew called "Ireland Impossible" - you wouldnt believe the amount of name's that have been taken!

    Will I create a separate thread for it?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,813 ✭✭✭Randomfriend


    If a few more lads join it then why not, giz a link to it on the social club and I'll join it :P

    Working the nightshift tonight so no access to photoshop here so I'll have a play with the social club **** and see where we go. Here, make me a commissioner in the deelie btw :P

    I really need to buy a mic, would make doing random crap a bit easier and more fun methinks if I could do more than just text..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,813 ✭✭✭Randomfriend


    Just threw together quite a simple design but I sort of like it, what do people think? :P
    Not sure I like that editor at all but there's definitely enough tools there to make decent stuff if you have any patience..

    Ideas are welcome anyhow fellas.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,015 ✭✭✭✭Mc Love


    yeah I have changed that to the one you made, tbf its a lot better than mine!

    Agree on the headset - I need one of those bluetooth ones! Any recommendations?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,813 ✭✭✭Randomfriend


    I know nothing about ps3 headsets to be honest, I've mostly dealt with pc games, I'll have an auld google tonight and maybe pick up something tomorrow.

    I sent Nick_oliveri/malongorph an invite to the IRLI crew there.

    If anyone else is interested in playing a bit here's the crew link http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/crew/ireland_impossible
    My PSN is EtcherSketcher if you need a new friend, I'll be on most nights.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 115 ✭✭Arturo Bandini


    Just sent a request.

    Anyone on tonight or tomorrow that could help me win a few races on my Akuma? Would obviously be willing to repay the favour.

    Welcome - why the Akuma? I think if you win races in the super cars it unlocks mods for any vehicles below it.

    From the odd race I had with you you're more than good enough to win races yourself Ted, just have a bit of patience! It only took me a few days to unlock everything on every type of vehicle, most people on gta are shocking racers!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,015 ✭✭✭✭Mc Love


    The trouble sometimes is getting people to join the races/missions


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,813 ✭✭✭Randomfriend


    Yeah, I usually just join randomly to be honest and take on all comers. I love that Drift King track but find it hard to get others to play it.

    I'll be on a bit today anyway lads, nothing else to do but watch rugby so I'll multitask :D

    Could do with ploughing through some missions to get more money and unlock the last few weapons!

    Do I have permissions to accept invites on this crew or what's the craic, I can't see any new requests even thou Arturo said he's made a request, maybe only the crew leader can then.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,015 ✭✭✭✭Mc Love


    Yep you do Commish! It looks like I wont get near it at all today - flat out with work!

    Done - thanks Commish!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,015 ✭✭✭✭Mc Love


    Looks like the crew membership has been moved up to 1000 - should be enough now for everyone to join the boards one!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,813 ✭✭✭Randomfriend


    grand, i'll give that crew a go for a while so.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,813 ✭✭✭Randomfriend


    Not sure how, but my 80% odd gta save is gone missing, so no importing for me.. I've managed to save up about 550k odd. what super car would people reccomend? I've muscle, off road, motorbikes and sport sorted..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,015 ✭✭✭✭Mc Love


    The entity is by far the best Super car
