Are you ready to take your GTA Online experience to the next level? Whether you're a seasoned player or just starting out, this massive list of tips and hints will help you navigate the sprawling world of Los Santos and Blaine County like a pro.
GTA Online is a vast and ever-evolving game, with countless opportunities for adventure, mayhem, and wealth. From mastering the art of the heist to building your criminal empire, there's always something new to discover and learn.
Whether you're looking to climb the ranks of the criminal underworld or simply explore the many possibilities of GTA Online, this guide has something for you.
$100K Per Hour On Consoles
You need to create an invite only gaming session. Head to any store and rob it. Punch the clerk in the face, they'll run off and take all the cash in the register.
Then go to the Start menu and to the Playstation Store / Xbox Live Marketplace — as if you were going to purchase in-game money for real-world cash.
As soon as the Store/Marketplace loads, exit straight away.
You will spawn back in the same store at the same spot except the world will have refreshed. You can now punch the clerk again, rob the cash register and repeat.
Use this to get loads of cash quickly! Unfortunately, it's not possible to pull this off on PC.
$18K Per Minute
At level 45 you will unlock a mission called "Mixed Up with Coke". In this mission, you need to visit 4 locations and destroy the cement trucks you find there. The rewards are $18,000 and 3,500 RP. It can take up to 15 minutes to do the first few times, but once you get it down pat with a couple of friends average run times are about 1 minute! The video below shows you exactly what to do (from each of the 4 player participant's perspectives) in order to get the mission time this low. You'll need a level 45 (to access the mission) as well as at least one level 19 and two level 9s.
Remember to combine this with the mission looping trick!
StevenWongo of Reddit also made this very useful visual guide for the mission Mixed Up with Coke. Thanks Steven
$2 Million & 400K RP Per Hour Farming
At Rank 75 you'll unlock a mission called Rooftop Rumble from a guy named Martin Madrazo (he leads a Mexican narcotic gang in the Los Santos area). What you need to do is basically kill 5 people and it's done, and the video clip below will show you how to complete it in the most efficient way possible. Using the method shown in the vid it's possible to earn up to $2 million and 400K RP per hour.
You can also do it if you are a lower level and get invited by someone of course. Just use sticky bombs instead of the grenade launcher and kill any survivors with a rifle.
Follow our $18K Per Minute hint to get up to level 75 ASAP.
$5,000 Minimum Drop
If you have more than $5,000 cash on you, you could lose everything above that amount (ie everything but the first $5K) if another player kills and robs you. Even if you don't have above $5K and you get killed you will still drop $100.
Action Command
Your GTA Online character has one "action" command available for you to assign and which can be activated by clicking both of the analog sticks in (L3 + R3/ CAPS Lock on PC). To set it, go to the interaction menu. Available actions include, eating snacks, flipping the bird and dancing. Probably most useful is the eat snack one — very handy if you've stocked up on candy bars and are in the middle of a gun fight! Keep in mind that performing the smoking action will cause minor health loss.
Activities Advice
No matter if you are winning or losing while doing an activity, you will still earn RP and some cash reward for finishing the game. This goes for shooting, playing golf or tennis, etc. Not only that though, but you'll also improve your character skills.
Aim Very Steeply
If for some reason you want/need to aim on a very steep angle then try walking backwards. When you are walking front-ways-forwards the angle is limited. Simply turn around 180 and walk backwards and you should have a much greater angle to work with.
All Helicopter and Plane Locations Part 1
If you want to get in the air in GTA Online you're going to need either a plane or a helicopter. Luckily we found the map below, courtesy of stonedpimpso, that should guide you to the spawn location of all air vehicles in GTA Online. The Frogger, Buzzard and Annihilator are all available!
All Helicopter and Plane Locations Part 2
Check out this second map created by HaIfpint that shows all the aircraft spawn locations in GTA Online. It's ultra HD too!
American Cycle Bike Race for Easy RP
Doing this race won't earn you any cash but you will get some very easy RP. Simply do the race by yourself and you can complete it in around 1 min 10 seconds and earn 2,225 RP. Too easy!
Here's the route you'll need to take in this mission:
And here's a short video courtesy of Somewhat Awesome Games to give you a better idea of what to expect:
Armor
With the 5% cash death penalty in GTA Online it is nearly always better to buy armor at the start of each session and keep it maintained. This will save you money in the long run...
A Titan of a Job
This mission requires that the host be at least level 24. You should also have at least 4 (preferably 6) people in your party. You should also select "easy" to make it the quickest run (and then just replay it).
Attack the hangar from both sides and then as soon as you can, move the truck that is in front of the aircraft (blocking it). That done, take off in the aircraft and fly back. Just make sure you've got a good pilot.
Completing A Titan of a Job will earn you GTA$ 10,000-20,0000 each time. To maximise profits, you need to stay in the mission for over 15 minutes.
Avoid Being Slipstreamed in Races
If you're being slipstreaming in GTA Online (like as the leader and someone is about to over-take you) then line up the car behind you and brake slightly, accelerating just as you hit the car behind you. This should cause you to gain momentum while at the same time the other car will slow down.
Avoid Losing Money
This might seem a little obvious, but if you get killed when carrying a load of cash and the console has not yet synced to the servers, quickly shut it down to avoid your lost funds being saved...
Bad Sport
If you want to damage/slow down another player in their vehicle then try to shoot out their tires. This will not earn you a bad sport tag. Whereas if you blow up another player's vehicle this will make you a bad sport.
Bad Sport Dunce Hat
Play nice with everyone else unless you want to be forced to wear one of these hats...
Bicycle Limit
Just a quick note — even though you might have noticed there are spaces for six bicycles in your garage in GTA Online you can only store a maximum of three, and in fact we don't recommend even trying to go above this limit given all the previous issues with players loses vehicles and mods etc... you never know what might happen.
Bigger Minimap
Here's a helpful hint — if you press down on your digital pad/Z on your keyboard twice then a large version of the minimap will be bought up. This can be useful in lots of situations, however is best used during cop chases. Check where the police are located, anticipate where they're going and then attempt to evade them accordingly.
Blind Firing Tip
While you are in cover, press the left analog stick in any direction and the target reticule will appear. Alternatively if you're at the "edge" of some cover, press left or right as appropriate.
This will let you see where your first shot lands! Beware though, it will also cause your character's head to pop out of cover a little bit, so you might get hit.
BMX Color Picker
If you want to choose the color of your new BMX then you need to purchase it during the same browser session as you purchase a car. The BMX color will be the same as the color of the car you choose.
Boneyard Survival Mission Guide
Right after you spawn you should see a building that looks like a trailer, and it's against a wall that has a telephone pole at one end and a clear view of the gate and also the bus at the other.
The only thing is that it isn't actually flush against the wall and there is a gap between it and the building!
So what you need to do is get in cover behind the building and then enemies should not even be able to hurt you.
Bounty Kills
Any player on your radar that has a red dot on them is currently wanted. And if you're able to take them out, then you'll earn a bounty reward.
You are able to select who you want killed (ie place a bounty) once you reach level 10 in GTA Online. It's done via Lester.
Bulk Transport
If for some reason you want to carry 16 people in one vehicle (like maybe everyone playing in your GTA Online instance!?) you can head to www.warstock-cache-and-carry.com using your cell phone and purchase the Airport Bus for $550,000.
Bulldozer Location
If you want a bulldozer in GTA Online then head to the location depicted below!
There's also another one that spawn in the construction area south of Blaine County.
Thanks sneakpeak1.
Bulldozer Spawn Location
If you're looking for bulldozers in the city then head to the location indicated on the map below and you should find there's usually about four bulldozers there waiting for you to take joyriding!
Car Statistics
If you press down on your digital pad/Z on the keyboard while you're inside a garage then the stats of each vehicle in the garage will be shown. You can also check if the vehicle has insurance or not.
Change Clothes On-the-fly
You can change clothes on-the-fly by simply pressing and holding Back (Xbox 360), Select (PS3), View (XBO), Touchpad (PS4) or M (PC) to open the interaction menu, then choosing inventory. There will then be an option to change your clothes there and then.
Change Spawn Point
Press Start and then go to "Online" --> "Options" to change your spawn point location in GTA Online.
Changing Accessories
Not only will putting on a mask prior to committing a crime help you to remove a Wanted Star later on when the Police come looking for you, but there are other accessories that work too. Try doing it with glasses and hats and you just might get away with the job. This includes (for example) taking off a hat and putting on a pair of glasses instead. Try mixing things up.
Cheap Sticky Bombs
You unlock sticky bombs at level 19 in GTA Online and here's quick hint and when to buy them. If you wait until the pre-mission lobby they are only $400. If you purchase them otherwise at an Ammu-nation, they can cost you upto $600 (although this cost will decrease as you continue to level up).
Clean Cars Using Fire Truck Water Cannon
This is a pretty cool feature/piece of detail included by Rockstar in GTAV. Simply grab a fire truck and then aim the water cannon at a dirty car. Next thing you know that car will be showroom clean.
Custom Crew Emblem Tutorial
Ever seen people running around in GTA Online with custom crew emblems and wondered how they got them? Well it's actually a glitch/workaround using the Social Club website.
What you need to do is follow the tutorial at this link in order to create your own custom crew emblem for GTA Online. You'll need a few different tools, but it's totally worth it!
Thanks HitlerStoleMyCats.
Death
When you die in GTA Online it will cost you 5% of your bank account funds up to a maximum of $5,000. The lesson — don't die!
Also when you die you will drop all your cash (obviously) plus another $100.
Deposit Cash via Internet
You don't even need to find an ATM to deposit money. Just go to the Maze Bank website on your cell phone (once you're in a safe spot of course!).
Deposit your Cash
Don't forget to deposit your money! This can be an easy thing to forget and is often a hard-learnt lesson.
Destroy Buzzard
The best way to completely take out a Buzzard helicopter is to shoot the missile housing with a sniper rifle. One or sometimes two shots and it will explode. You can also try shooting the tail twice while it is flying and it should go down also.
Destroy Unoccupied Cars with No Bad Sport
So if you see someone's vehicle in GTA Online and they aren't in it, here's how you can blow it up and destroy it without getting a bad sport penalty.
First shoot the car's back tires and then cover the car using the gas from a jerry can (yeah, you'll need one of those). Try to cover the rear tires the most but get the stuff everywhere.
Then just wait. When the vehicle owner returns and goes to take off, the sparks from the popped tires should light the gas and the entire car should blow up.
The funniest thing is that the driver/owner will be blamed!
Thanks rareburger.
Dropping Items
If you want to drop an item for someone (like a friend) or just get rid of it, then highlight it in your inventory or quick wheel and then press and hold Y (Xbox 360) or Triangle (PS3). On PC, you can drop weapons with the F9 key and ammo wit the F10 key.
Die Without Losing Any Money
If you know you're gonna die a few times (whether it's for mucking around, griefing someone, someone griefing you, etc) then here's a way to ensure that you lose absolutely no money when you die, including hospital fees!
First off put all your money into the bank and then change to your second GTA Online character. Withdraw all the money to them in cash and then switch back straight away to your first character.
Your first character will have absolutely no money so you can die all the times you want without losing a dime.
Dodging Air Missiles
The best way to dodge air missiles is to actually fly towards them and then fly underneath them at the last minute. Missiles can turn upwards, left and right very quickly, but are not so good changing direction downwards.
Don't Pay for Insurance with Police Vehicles
You may not know this, but if you steal a police vehicle you can actually save it into your garage in GTA Online. All you need to do is lose your Wanted Level and then save it and it can become a personal vehicle!
What's more, if you take it to a Pay and Spray then everything you can do there except chrome paint and getting bulletproof tires is free. Full insurance is also free.
Pretty nice vehicle to have around, and you get a siren.
Drink Pisswasser to Get Drunk
I wouldn't really call this a tip in that it's not going to improve your driving abilities, but if you start drinking Pisswasser before a race in GTA Online then your character will get sloshed. Just make sure you hold down the action button when drinking and your character will finish off the bottle (and in fact this works with any consumable — hold down the button until it is full consumed!).
Easy RP
A good way to earn RP (other than by completing jobs) in GTA Online is to get a high wanted level and then evade the police successfully. So to do this you can enter a convenience store and rob it (with a mask on of course), then get into a shoot out with the cops, then lose them, take off the mask (down one wanted level) and then continue to evade them until you lose your wanted level totally.
Easy Reputation Points via Racing
- Either you or your friend need to host a Criminal Records online race. You can find this under Jobs in a lobby.
- Make sure you setup the rules for the race as pictured further below. This is important.
- Then invite your friend in (or they invite you), choose any vehicle that you want and start the race.
- Note that you don't really need to beat your friend, it might get you a few extra RP but it's not really important.
- Just keep racing and you should be able to earn around 7,000 RP every 2 minutes. You are awarded the RP at the end of every lap.
- At the end of the race simply choose to replay it.
Easy Survival Mode
Follow the pictorial shown at these two links and you'll be able to complete Survial mode in GTA Online very easily. Do it right and you can earn $20K without too much effort or time.
Thanks bluejack45.
Easy Violent Duct Mission
Violent Duct is a mission that you get from Gerald once you hit level 15. It pays out $9K and is relatively easy to do. Here's some quick ideas to get it done with as little hassle as possible.
So The Lost are doing a cocaine deal behind the Vanilla Unicorn and Gerald wants you to steal it. If you have at least one person with a decent gun it's pretty easy.
Someone goes straight in while another circles around behind The Lost by jumping over the fence on the right (there's a cargo container you can use). Then you simply mow them all down.
Once you get the coke one more van will show up. The person with the good gun can handle them, while the person who picked up the coke grabs a motorcycle and drives it towards the exit with the red/white bar.
You can then finish the mission easily, restock and do it again.
Enterable Buildings / Locations
There are various places/locations/buildings in GTA Online that you can actually enter and go inside of and someone by the name of TerdSmash decided to create a handy list of them. Check out all the locations below along with hyperlinked map guide so you know exactly where to find it. Great for escaping the cops, your mates or that person trying to kill you!
Custom Crew Emblem Tutorial
Ever seen people running around in GTA Online with custom crew emblems and wondered how they got them? Well it's actually a glitch/workaround using the Social Club website.
What you need to do is follow the tutorial at this link in order to create your own custom crew emblem for GTA Online. You'll need a few different tools, but it's totally worth it!
Thanks HitlerStoleMyCats.
Death
When you die in GTA Online it will cost you 5% of your bank account funds up to a maximum of $5,000. The lesson — don't die!
Also when you die you will drop all your cash (obviously) plus another $100.
Random Garages
Escaping a Dog Fight
One way to escape a dog fight is to simply call Lester and pay the $500 to hide your radar signal for one minute. As soon as it's activated head straight up in the sky and then once you're high enough, take off from your attacker.
Fast Travel #1
A quick and sneaky way to get across the map quickly is to simply select a race that is nearby to where you wanna go. Go the the race, enter the lobby and then drop out of it. You should then spawn at the start of the race location in free roam.
Fast Travel #2
There is a way to fast travel in GTA Online and this is how you do it.
- Hover over a mission icon. It can be a race or anything.
- Press X on the Xbox 360 or Square on the PS3 to go to the mission.
- Straight after that back out. You should spawn right outside the area where the mission was.
Fast Travel #3
Another quick and easy way to travel instantly is to load up a mission which supplies you with multiple lives and has its objective near the place you want to go. Once you have started the mission, simply kill yourself with some explosives — you'll respawn at the location of the next objective.
Faster BMX
While riding your BMX tap R1 (PS3) or RB (Xbox 360) or L Shift (PC) and hold forward slightly on the left analog stick. This should keep the front wheel on thhe ground and you should go a lot faster than you would otherwise.
First Car
Just make sure that the very first car you ever steal in GTA Online is the very best you can find. This is because otherwise you'll be forced to cruise around in whatever piece of crap you managed to get until you have enough cash for something new... and this might be a while.
Find Out How Much Bounty is Worth
If you want to find out how much the bounty on a player is worth (like before you blow $3K worth of rockets on destroying him) simply call Lester and try to place a bounty yourself on the person. Lester will then tell you what the current bounty is.
Flying Hints & Tips for Pilots
- A series of minor adjustments can often be more helpful than large adjustments, particularly if you are hovering or trying to do a similarly precise task. Such minor adjustments are the only way to counteract turbulence. Holding the bumpers does not work.
- Do not worry about turbulence when you are flying quickly. Your helicopter will adjust itself as long as you continue to push the analog stick forward.
- If you are chasing a bounty then their auto aim will go directly to you (as pilot of the chopper). If you get killed then chances are the chopper will go down and everyone else will die. For this reason you should always be wearing body armor and make sure you're covered at all times.
- If you are flying at a high speed in the helicopter, you can use this trick to stop quickly. Move the analog stick to either the left or the right and hold down the bumper that corresponds to that direction. This will make the helicopter spin, dip down, and then dip up. When it points up, release the analog stick and the bumper. You will have slowed considerably.
- Protect your helicopter's tail rotor. It is one of the helicopter's biggest weak spots.
- The Buzzard or Annihilator are the best choppers to use if you are bounty hunting in GTA Online. They can carry four people each and both are pretty maneuverable.
- The most basic thing to keep in mind for helicopter combat is that you must always be in motion, so that your enemies cannot hit you as easily.
- To go into a steep nosedive, push the analog stick forward and hold down LT (Xbox 360) / L2 (PS3) / Numpad 8 (PC). Be sure to leave yourself a few hundred feet to come out of the dive.
- When you are flying at a high speed, pushing the analog stick to the left or the right/ pressing A or D will send you into a roll, which will help you maintain your speed through turns.
- You can protect yourself by pulling down on the analog stick while holding down RT (Xbox 360) / R2 (PS3). Whoever is shooting at you will only be able to hit the armored helicopter, not your character. You can perform a similar technique to protect your side gunner by pulling the analog stick to the side opposite that of the gunner.
Flying Jets
If you want more maneuvourability while flying a jet then lower the landing gear. This will slow you down and enable you to make quick, shorter turns. It also means that other players in the air trying to destroy will most likely be flying around you (make very large, high speed turns) this enables you get the jump on them.
Free-Aim the Sniper
In order to free-aim with the sniper file you need to hold either RT (Xbox 360) or R2 (PS3) half way down and move it from there. This should let you free-aim.
Free Annis Elegy RH8
When you sign up to Rockstar Social Club you're given a free shotgun to use in the game. Link your Xbox Live or Playstation Network account and you'll get a free set of wheels — the Annis Elegy RH8. The Elegy is only given to you when you purchase your first property though.
Free Car Repair
There's already lots of way to get your car repaired for free in GTA Online but here's another. Simply go to the GTA Online menu and press "Find New Session." It's that easy.
Free Cosmetic Car Upgrades
This will only work if you haven't done the first mission for Simeon yet. Basically when you do, you'll receive a whole bunch of free (cosmetic) upgrades to whatever car you've got at that time, and it's a one-time deal. So before you take the first mission from him, search for a vehicle that you'd like to upgrade and be in it when you start the mission.
The only caveat is that, just like when you try to sell vehicles to LS Customs, this won't work for premium/sports cars like the Obey 9F or for motorbikes. Something like the Karin Sultan would probably get some decent upgrades (or any other car along those lines…).
Free Garage
While this car garage is free, you'll need to be level before you can use it. To get the free garage, simply go to the website for Dynasty 8 on your cell phone and search through it. There will be garages listed there and one of them will be free — if you bought the collector's edition, that is. The free garage has 2 slots.
Free Shotgun
If you want a free shotgun head to Ammu-nation and scroll towards the right, next to the rocket launcher. You should see a sawed-off-shotgun that is free. Grab it! Note you'll need to buy ammo though...
Free Vehicle Repair
To get your car or motorbike repaired for free just go into any mission whatsoever. As long as you get into the lobby then your vehicle will be repaired for you automatically, free of charge.
Gang War Locations Map
Did you know that there's gang wars going on in GTA Online and that you can actually watch them fight and participate? You just need to be in the right spot at the right time to see everything kick off. What's more, there's actually 41 different wars going on and somebody took the time to make a nice little map so that you know exactly where to go at what time! Thanks to ttech10 for the map!
Get a Fighter Jet
Just watch the video below to see how to steal a military fighter jet in GTA Online. Basically you need a fast car and then launch yourself over the fence of the military base using a small hill.
Golf Game Guide
We would have love to have produced something like this ourselves, but to be honest the author of this guide cannot be beaten. If you want to do well at the golf game in GTA V then you need to check out this guide it's an absolute must read.
Grab Cargo Drops with Cargobob
Once you hit level 20 and speak to Ron for the first time in GTA Online then cargo drops will be unlocked for you. Usually they are guarded and you'll need to fight to get the cargo, but if you first grab a Cargobob (like from the Merryweather people at the Port) then you'll be able to simply hook the cargo and take it off somewhere else to open up.
Grass on Fire
If you throw a molotov cocktail onto a grassed area then the entire area will eventually catch fire as these pictures show (thanks Darknessfallls). If you want to see where the molotovs are located then check out these maps and guides.
Hang Off the Side of Vehicles
In order to hang off the side of vehicles you need to hold LT (Xbox 360) / L2 (PS3) and then double tap Y (Xbox 360) / Triangle (PS3) when you're next to the door of the car. In terms of positioning you should be in the middle of the front and back doors. For this to work, the car needs to be fully occupied.
If the vehicle has roof racks and side steps by the doors you should be able to do it. For example this will work on the Granger SUV.
Thanks AceAdam.
Helicopter Spawn Location
Head to the location indicated on the map below to find where a helicopter is known to spawn. If you want to get the Wanted Level, there is also one at the Airport.
Helicopter Spawning and Levels
Head to the location below and depending on what level you are, a different helicopter will spawn as follows:
- Levels 0-16: Maverick
- Levels 17-24: Frogger
- Levels 25-36: Cargobob
- Levels 37-41: Annihilator
- Level 42+: Buzzard
Hills
To get up hills more quickly just jump-spam. This is much faster than trying to run up them.
Hitching Rides on Fire Trucks
Yes, this is possible and works just like it does for any other vehicle.
Simply got up to the vehicle (a fire truck in this case) and press Y/Triangle/F and you should jump on board!
Hunger Games GTA Edition
You can stage your very own Hunger Games in Grand Theft Auto Online, all from the comfort of your own apartment!
Simply make sure you have a safe house that you can watch TV on and put a bounty on someone. The more money you are willing to put up the more entertaining this is likely to be.
Then use your TV to spectate the player that the bounty is on and enjoy!
Thanks to weirdo_wayne for the idea.
Instant Heals During Missions
Buy a load of Meteorite and/or Ego Chaser bars before every mission from a convenience store and have your action command (L3 + R3/Caps Lock) linked to eat snack. This is a great way to restore health and avoid dying while on missions.
You can also skip the lengthy snack eating animation by going into over and eating a snack from the interaction menu or your weapon wheel.
Insure Cars
The cost of insuring your first car is free (done at Los Santos Customs), but after that it will cost $1,000 per vehicle. If you have an insured car that gets destroyed, then you need to call the insurance company via your phone contacts.
You can make yourself visible again by re-entering Los Santos Customs or by dying. Also be aware that police can still find you.
Jetski Cave Location
If you haven't visited the cave at the location shown below then you really need to. It is valuable in both the story mode and GTA Online parts of the game. Note only can you hide from the cops there (and escape a 4 star wanted level for example) but there is two jetskis and a jetmax inside.

John Marston as Father
Some of you might remember John Marston from the Red Dead Redemption series. If you sign up to the Social Club then he is available to select as your father as part of the character creation process. Head to the "Dad's Mother/Dad's Father" option and then press either Y (Xbox 360) or Triangle (PS3). Marston will then be shown as your character's father.
- Be in your car with the headlights on.
- Leave the car and punch the air (seriously).
- Get back in the car, let the engine start and then get out again.
- The engine will stay running and the headlights will remain on too!
Lester
Lester can help you out with lots of problems you might encounter in GTA Online. Like if you're being chased by the cops give him a call and he might be able to facilitate a bribe — lowering your Wanted Level. Otherwise he might even be able to hide your radar blip so you can sneak around without being noticed. The "Hide My Blip" option can also be very helpful on Last Team Standing jobs...
Level Requirements
When doing a mission only the host needs to be the required level. This means that anyone can play (and reap the rewards of) the mission regardless of what level they are.
Lifestyle and Character Stats Guide
If you're wondering what choices to make in terms of lifestyle when creating your GTA Online character then have a read through this guide which explains each of the different lifestyle options and the extent to which they'll affect your character stats and attributes.
List of All Properties
If you want to know all properties that are available to purchase then simply go to the internet browser on your cell phone and head to Dynasty 8 (it's under "Money and Services"). At Dynasty 8 you'll see every single property you can purchase along with prices.
Looping Missions
In order to loop missions now, right after you hit the like button at the end of the mission, just make sure that everyone presses RT (Xbox 360) / R2 (PS3). This will instantly restart the exact same mission and drop you straight into it. Great for farming cash.
Loser Perk
If you are in a Deathmatch and die three times without getting a single kill then you will be given a Loser Perk to try and help you improve. Once it's given to you, you'll notice it in the options in the bottom right of the Wasted screen. That's where you can choose to activate it.
Lose Wanted Level Free
In order to lose your Wanted Level for free in GTA Online just follow these steps:
- Obtain Wanted Level.
- Press Pause.
- Enter Store relevant to your console.
- Exit store and go back to game.
Making Insurance Claim Tip
If you need to make an insurance claim and want the relevant vehicle delivered straight to you garage, then simply get in another personal vehicle before calling the insurance company and making the claim.
Since you can only have one personal vehicle in the open world at once they'll deliver it to your garage.
Thanks DapperChewie.
Making Money Online
Executives and Other Criminals bought with it loads of super yachts and other uber expensive vehicles. However if you become an Executive under the new VIP system then you get access to two very well paying jobs that can be completed quickly. For the full rundown check out this detailed post.
- Host a job and pick a race, Rockstar created.
- Choose Criminal Records, 50 laps, standard race.
- Pick a fast vehicle (motorcycles are good).
- Keep on racing until you hit 100/100 driving skill!
Thanks dickwad69.
Max Strength Stat
If you want to max out your strength stat in GTA Online here's a way to do it in just 10 minutes!
All you do is get a friend to jump into a car and then you start meleeing that car repeatedly.
It should take about 10 minutes for your strength stat to hit the maximum and will mean you punch and kick harder, climb ladders faster, are better at sports and take less damage in certain circumstances.
Thanks dickwad69.

Once you get your first garage (you can buy them separately or they otherwise come with all apartments) you'll also get a Mechanic who'll be able to deliver your personal vehicle to you at all times — whether you're on a mission or in free roam mode.
Mechanic Collects Impounded Vehicle
If and when your personal vehicle gets impounded then you should call you Mechanic and ask him to deliver to you any other vehicle. He'll actually go and collect your impounded personal vehicle.
Medkits
Medkits are in GTA Online in the form of snacks and drinks that you buy at convenience stores. To use one, simply press and hold Back on the Xbox 360 (Select on the PS3) and then scroll down to Action --> Select a snack or drink --> press A (Xbox 360) or X (PS3) or M (PC) to use it and get back some health.
Menus: Scroll Faster
While you're looking at any menu in-game (like the custom paint job menu in the mod shop for example) if you press and hold RT (R2 on the PS3) then you'll scroll through the items much faster.
Merryweather Mesas Location
Head to the location shown below and you should find that some Mesas have spawned. Be warned though, you'll need to be heavily armed as you'll need to fight for them!!
Merryweather Security
At level 12 you will get a phone call from Merryweather Security and they will be added to the contacts list on your cell phone. You can then call them up and ask for help on missions, they are expensive though, and not all services unlock at the same time!
- Ammo Drop: $1,000 (Rank 12)
- Backup Chopper: $5000 (Rank 20)
- Boat pick up: $250 (Rank 25)
- Chopper pick up: $1,000 (Rank 30)
- Mercenaries: $7,500 (Rank 35)
- Airstrike: $8,000 (Rank 50)
Meth'd Up Mission Faster
When doing this mission it's a good idea to just run (or better yet drive) to the RV and then drive straight (and we mean straight) to the drop off point. This means you should be driving off-road most of the way and will also mean that you avoid a lot of the bad guys you'd otherwise encounter.
Military Base Entry
You can check out one method of getting into the military base in this video, but there's another way too. Simply roll down the hill shown in the map below and it will get you over the fence! The other way is probably a lot more fun/entertaining though!
