25 Things Only Old Players Know About GTA 5 Online…

[@Milty2001]

Early 2014 gta online was nostalgic, it was a time when a million dollars was alot, the zentorno with sticky bombs was dangerous, the adder and the maze bank apartment made you feel like a rich baller, rooftop rumble was a great way of making money and the lazer can only be stolen from fort zancudo

[@holyhecka7476]

Entity xf was the 1st car you could do this with

Rooftop rumble and titan of the job was the best mission back to back. I never liked the adder. I alway had the entity xf and Z type. And first car in GTA was a Felon

I think the gates at Fort Zancudo also weren't how they are know. If i remember they had this big gate that you also see at the airport so your only means of getting into Fort Zancudo was with the hill next to the highway. If you wanted to obtain a Rhino for free you needed to get a wanted level while being on the mountain next to the military base. Depending on how lucky you are the army will spawn outside the base with a Rhino and once you lost your wanted level you'd go and hijack the tank.

[@jakeb7525]

Sooooo One- The thing about the Zentorno is roughly correct, but details are wrong. Yes, people used to back up and kill you that way, but it was NOT by using stickies, it was usually the AP pistol or UZI. And it wasn't because people didn't have rpgs, they did, many of us did. Rather, it was because back then, there was no buying ammo through the interaction menu. You physically had to go to the gun stores and buy your ammo. But also, it wasn't just the Zentorno, it was that at first, until people started realizing and catching on that the Jester (the original) could also do it, all you had to do was equip the cover on the back of the car. Not only was the Zentorno $750k, but the Jester was only $250k, so cheaper, just as effective and efficient, and was still more than fast enough. Its also worth noting that cars didn't max out at $20k for insurance back then. If i recall correctly, it was up to $30k for some. So considering that the Zentorno was more expensive to buy and more expensive insurance, that's part of why the Jester was also widely used as an alternative. Two- Phone calls DO still work, you just have to be in gamechat. So for example, on xbox (what I'm on) if I'm in a party, it won't show up. If I go to gamechat, it will. I believe it also requires a Mic to be plugged in while in gamechat, but i could be wrong since I'm usually in a party. Three- The outfit thing is correct, however something to note is, there also used to only be 10 outfit slots, not 20. A welcomed change indeed. Four- You CAN hook a Khanjali, its just finnicky as hell to actually get hooked, and it doesn't lift well at all. Also, the rhino has been hookable forever, but has been changed a few fines. Like being able to be lifted fine, then being like the khanjali and insurgent where it just won't lift above 3 feet really, and then now again where it can. The not being able to was short lived, but it did exist. Five- you've always been able to dive underwater. Not sure where the idea that you couldn't, came from, but that's entirely false. Six- You wouldn't just warp back then, but you've always been able to jump off the mountain via the cable car area. Least for as long as I can remember, that's been a thing. Seven- A note about the C4 on the back of a player. Yes, you can still do it, however it used to be very powerful and nutty. Because back then, not only could you put in on a person's back, but you could actually have them go into someone's apartment, and it would still be attached. Meaning if someone wanted to kill someone who was inside, they could kill them anyways. You also used to be able to mess with it even more by using passive. The player being stuck to, could go passive and live through it. Had a lot of fun with that. Eight Yes, you had to deal with your car annoyingly, however back to my earlier part, the insurance wasn't just capped at $10k or $20k, it was capped at $30k on some cars.

[@br0dimi]

Remember the grind for rank 100 to get the rpg. The day after (thursday) they released the free homing launcher omg i was pissed off. 3 weeks of grinding rooftop and titan jobs. Or the time u could fly through your front window

[@taurielv]

We had fun stealing rhinos with bob and then release them. They always try find shortest path to get back into base. Also the prehistoric mk2 was the combo when one flied the bob and the other shot in air from the towed rhino cannons 😊 The Pier pressure mission was best way for starter players to get their staminas fulled up, by smacking all dudes on the beach without getting cops. Also, looting those npcs made an extra cash in end of mission.

[@508Cole508]

Oh I remember, back in 2013 we only had a max of 10 slots for cars, storing cop cars (or Pegasus vehicles), the mechanic actually driving your car to you instead of just appearing, the constant war outside of the Eclipse Towers apartment, spoilers on cars being purely cosmetic and not actually beneficial for racing, looking for the sultan (now you can pay 12k for one), actually going to gun store for ammo, doing boneyard survivals to level up shooting and get miniguns or other high level weapons, I can on but I'll stop here. Eventually we got 30 vehicle slots through the original heist update. And to expand on the heli blimps, since everything was just a blimp you'd never if someone was in a Rhino.

Great video! Tons os nostalgia and memories. But I'd like to leave you some notes as a friendly subscriber.

Players in their own will show a spinning helicopter blade Contact missions used to pay the same no matter how long you took. R* changed it to pay more the longer you waited in order to nerf it. PS3 and 360 lobbies capped at 16 players You could always dive underwater. The ability to do so is even featured in the story mission "Daddy's Little Girl" when diving off the pier to swim to the yacht A parachute spawns at the top of Mt. Chilliad in the lift station and respawns every few minutes to help avoid getting stuck up there (this has always been the case). Dirt bikes and quads spawn by the lookout. Not sure if they still do 2013-2015 were tough times. Rhino was scary. It could take 8 rockets which most people didn't have and didn't have a custom icon. You just have a dot roll around the corner and you are toast. Lazers were god tier but rare. Rhino and buzzard were seen how the Opp. MK II and similar vehicles are seen today

You’d sometimes get blown up in the elevator back in the 360 days. Also you forgot to mention ammo was supper expensive back then so you’d only buy ammo for certain guns you actually needed and ignore other weapons having rpg ammo was a luxury.

[@LesterCrest1]

Before the flight school update every mission gave fixed ammount of money. No matter how fast or slow you completed the mission it always gave you the same ammount of money. Coveted was the best mission to play over and over for money (the old version was way faster because you had to deliver the container to Madrazo's garage that was located behind the windmil area while the current version requires you to deliver the container in Cypress Flats) Here's a list of all the removed freemode events from old gen: Lester asking you to kill a random NPC with a bounty (he'll send you a notification through the job list on your phone and if you accept it there will be a red empty circle on the radar that even other players can see) Destroy smuggler planes and helicopters. Distract cops Grouppe sechs van Supply Crate drop. Strange light on Fort Zancudo's bunker. The mechanic delivered your cars in person. Car damage was way better and more visible (on current gen they removed the cabine damage due to the first person view that was absent on old gen). Dynasty 8 boards had a serious bug that resulted in them spawning infinitelly when more than 2 players were nearby (you could notice that something wrong was happening because frames dropped around 5 due to the insane ammount of boards spawning on the ground. Sometimes they were so much that the map couldn't load anymore and you could fall under the map). Dynasty 8 boards used to spawn in storymode too but only during few early missions then they disappear (before the release on old gen Rockstar promised that we would've been able to buy houses and properties in Singleplayer so that's probably a leftover of which properties we would've been able to buy if they released the storymode DLC). FIB Buffalo and FIB Granger spawning in the desert next to the "big ears". If you approached the FIB agents they'll tell you to leave and eventually start shooting at you. (On current gen they are replaced with a white Washington and a white van and FIB agents are gone). The Vespucci Beach sculpture used to look different. Before December 2013 there was a sculpture similiar to the real life one but the artist didn't want his sculpture featured in game so they changed it into that brown monsttosity that we have now). Before the heist update back on 2015 the luxury appartment's planning room was just a simple relax room with a computer, a n empty white wall with just an LS map and shelves with books, skateboards and guitars. After the release of "i'm not an hipster" update we had the "pure black" window tint that is completelly gone on current gen. American Export was a Lester mission that has been removed from current gen for unknown reasons (similiar to an already existing mission that requires to steal a cargobob from Fort Zancudo and hook a container at the docks). The Khamelion, Hot Knife, Carbon RS, cal.50 pistol, bulpup shotgun and hammer were a "collector's edition" exclusive. There is a song that used to be different on Radio mirror park ("A little white lie"). The old gen version was low pitched and slower than the current one. Planes also used to take off from the airport (on current gen you'll see them landing but not taking off anymore). There was a glitch that allowed you to get locked vehicles (like collector's edition vehicles) by glitching the search bar on internet. (If you tried to park a collector's edition vehicle in your garage without downloading the special DLC risulted in the game refusing to let you get in your garage or show those vehicles in your garage. The only way to get them was calling the mechanic). Completing a mission used to give players very rare vehicles like the Stinger GT, Cheetah or any other supercar instead of the classic civilian cars like the Asterope or Granger that we get nowadays. You were able to customize the Sheriff SUV in any LSC (the function was clearly unfinished since color names were displayed as "paintjob 1, paintjob 2, paintjob 3 etc...)

One thing you forgot to mention was the gate glitch at the cul-de-sac above the lake in vinewood hills. You could launch cars halfway across the map if done correctly. Rockstar patched it sometime in 2014 i believe, maybe even quicker. Look up video if youve never seen it, pretty nuts.

Yo I remember just grinding Rooftop Rumble and the Fleeca heist so many damn times. Such good memories 3:04

[@AlexBigShid]

4:32 Wasn't the only one, the jester was bullet proof too

[@michaelgebhard9869]

I used to pick up newer players in my car and drive to an isolated area like the east ocean coast and change my vehicle preferences to ‘no passengers’ so it would force them out- similar to getting stuck on mt Chilead. It was a good initiation game to play on unsuspecting newbies. Haha

[@michaelgebhard9869]

Used to be able to call for a taxi, as well, to come pick you up and fast track you to destinations if you were willing to pay the extra. Otherwise you just rode in the taxi in real time.

Windmills and weird stuff on the garages were due to modders. But i think they were placed for fun, not to annoy really. You cluld run towards the stacked windmills and they would launch you high in the air.

[@mazdaroadster-mx5]

I remember drifting around the old casino. Good fun

[@bravocharliedelta4]

Free roam lobbies used to be less toxic, but there was also a lot less to do. Helicopter and jet griefers had to have more skill as missiles didn't lock onto ground vehicles and you actually had to be good with vehicle machine guns. The tank was absolutely unkillable unless you had a high level player that unlocked the RPG already. Nowadays you can't drive a city block without a beta-male trying to kill you in an oppressor or deluxo.

[@RleeMcRobie-ck5sn]

I always stole a cab, picked up a fare and drove into the back side of the fort. When you finally got out near a jet the wanted level would engage. Easiest way to steal a jet.

I remember having to get the lazar because i didnt have the hydra unlocked 😂 non of this trade price nonsense, it was " you haven't complete this misssion, you can have this thing yet" but now its " you havent complete this mission, youll have to pay more for this item "😂

[@Alexander-dn4rw]

Back in 2016 i used to do the armored karuma and pacific standard with some Canadian friends on ps4, basically where you oarl the bikes in the setup is near a personal garage. Fun times it was, i think it was patched within that year i think too

[@erickrodriguez3954]

We were always able to dive underwater

[@Exoterrestrial]

Veteran online fans remember the out of bounds area in the side of Bob Mulét near Portola Drive (near the Jewelery store)

[@Correct_Hamster]

i LOVED the zentorno back then! Fastest land vehicle back then its weird because in the shoe store in story they were topless on x360 and ps3 but not in online

[@xandercogan5521]

I swear to god this guy doesn't know anything on PS3 the employees at the strip club at work topless and also in the ocean you could dive on PS3

[@PrestonBourgeois]

I came here to say the same thing

[@xandercogan5521]

​@@PrestonBourgeoisI find it funny he says only old players know but he's wrong

[@v_Falls_v]

Mb must’ve mis remembered, but I wasn’t supposed to be in there at my age anyways 😅

[@xandercogan5521]

​@@v_Falls_vneither was I but we've all been in there I made a excuse for my self need all the numbers in my phone and missions

[@habkeinename3229]

ah yes, the good ol days, when every lobby was filled with new friends and fun, not griefers and saboteurs, blowing up 2 mil of your hard earned cash for a 2000$ reward ..... also miss the old titan and cargobob. ya know, the ones where u could actually open the ramp on the back

[@IIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllllI]

I remember when I played in 2020, 2021 when the Cayo Perico came out, I bought the Kostake but never knew that Cayo Perico the heist existed. Once I spent 100k on the Cayo Perico heist but never completed it, all I did was do the scope out, but I was like this is way too hard I was really nooby back then and I just quit and never did Cayo Perico until I started playing on a different account and started grinding, I just bought shark cards back then.

[@kylianbhoyrub93]

I remember rooftop rumble was paying 12750€ before they patch it. I had grind this mission for an entire week to buy a coquette back in 2014

[@Exoterrestrial]

Also Im not sure how true that diving underwater statement is because I vividly remember the submarine spawning on the eastern side of the map and me and my friends attempting to steal it from one another on ps3

[@hurryingglint23]

God I remember doing the longer time missions back in the day… I would start a playlist and have a timer on my phone.. I would do 12 minutes because I could do more missions and in return get more money.. damn it was simpler times back then

[@ChaoticKittenSlayer]

I remember when they added the homing launcher; man i was so mad at that lol. Ruined it for me doing sell mission in public lobbies. Now there is flying cars and opressors camping every location.

[@HarryB4497]

You still need to play a contact mission for over 15 minutes to get the max payout and you could dive under water back on 360 and PS3.

[@NoirChat138]

16:20 no my dude 😂 these were the last days of 360 when modders got rampant like on the pc version

[@abbthemad]

Wow so many memories, who remembers when we used to bring the duke 0 death over from single player, then rockstar got so fed up with people doing it that every time you got into the car and tried driving it , it would blow up in the end it was a cool clever thing they did , staying in races for over 4 minutes would give you 4,000 + rp and 10,000 in cast we used to race around the prison or make races around the horse track by the casino, I remember the first ever car dupe where you drove your car out the garage an upgraded elegy drive well away from your garage blow it up call Jonny to get it but also mors mutual so you had one delivery to yourself and one to your garage , all the stuff we could do back then was awesome so many little things were so much fun, Ive played from day one , well they released the game but you couldn’t play online for 2 weeks lol over 10 years , I was 47 when I started playing and I’ve made 19 different accounts which I still have , and I still play to this day , wicked game

[@kelvinanjos]

only og´s will remember that your mechanic npc used to bring your car when you called it
