GTA V

[Azazel]

Yes, online.

I'm enjoying it somewhat, especially since my wife's copy arrived so we can play it co-op MMO style (race against one another, duo missions, grief the griefers, etc). One thing that's starting to shit me though is fucking telephone calls. I got one from that basically wiped the car delivery open world-mission I was on with instructions for me to drive the fuck up to the arse end of the desert with no way to quit out of it. No. Fuck off. I'm playing the open-world sandbox version because I want to do what I want to fucking do, not get tied to the pain in the arse telephone for shitty ghetto story mode and this game's version of beeg american teetees or whatever the fuck that fuckwit wants me to do.

Anyone figured out how to mute the other player's mikes in Online? So far the only solution I found when a couple dudes start a "conversation" (once it was just a guy belching in to his mike over and over) - is to change sessions. This game won't survive if its going to force all its players in to random sessions of chat roulette while playing.

Finally bought a tablet, this was based purely on my OCD need to complete all the stunt jumps and not wanting to walk between my console and my computer to look them up.  I am now 49/50, which means I missed one God damn jump for which I have no idea about.  I probably messed up a quicksave/load so I'll have to start at the beginning again.  Screw that noise, I'll just wait until it is a game of the year edition on the PS4 and replay the whole thing.  This time I'll know to save the Lester missions for the end, unless the pricks nerf that in patches.

If you are a member of the rockstar social club then you get a detailed 100% completion checklist with all the things you already did checked off. I don't know if it includes monster jumps (haven't looked at it yet) but it might be a help.

[Miasma]

Hmm that has some good info but unfortunately not the one jump I'm missing.  It looks like I only needed to do 25 if I was only interested in 100% completion but I don't think I want to bother with that.  I'm surprised at how many random events I'm missing, I just assumed the security vans respawned but it looks like they are ten seperate incidents.

[Morfiend]

Pardon my not reading the whole thread, but has any one created a f13 crew for everyone?

[Surlyboi]

On xbox, look for Bat Country F13

Anyone on PS3?

Either start or select or whatever. Go to your online session > players > mute.

Yeah. it's a little more onerous than it needs to be, like most of the options screens in this game.

[Bunk]

Just requested an invite for the F13 crew. I guess I should actually dig my XBox headset out of storage.

[MisterNoisy]

I have new favorite cars in this game:



They drive like shit, but who cares?

[Hawkbit]

What version is that image from?  My PS3 version looks terrible compared to that image.

[Surlyboi]

I added you guys to the f13 crew. Not sure if you accepted yet

I was just in here looking for that.  I'll accept as soon as is feasible.

[Miasma]

I have decided that if it weren't for the unskippable torture mini game this would edge out the original Deus Ex as my lifetime favourite game.  As soon as they patch out that shit this will be my number one.  I'm at 100% and can't wait for some DLC, I have never cared about DLC before in my life.  It's a terrible metric for the most part but I see the game is on top of everything else at metacritic so I guess I'm not alone.

[MisterNoisy]

Still playing this a fair bit.  My brother and I have been basically using the game as Skype with guns and stupidity.

[MisterNoisy]

Wise fwom your gwave!

New update dropped today.  New cars, new apartments and the ability to own more than one apartment.  They also nerfed the everloving shit out of the community's favorite money/RP grinding mission, Rooftop Rumble.  Eventually, they'll stop trying to push people to buy their in-game currency with real money, but you have to give them credit for holding fast this long, right?  :P

[Rendakor]

Still no word on a PC port?

Still no word on a PC port?

Coming this fall, along with current-gen versions and the ability to transfer your current GTAO save/character to the new platforms.

[Miasma]

Not going to lie, I liked this game enough to play it all over again and will pay for a PS4 copy if the graphics do seem this improved.  Will need to find out what PS4 versus PC looks like, video says this is PS4 at the end.

[Hawkbit]

I'm still only 25% into the story.  My biggest gripe is the piss-poor framerate on my PS3 version.  I'll definitely buy the game again if the PC or PS4 versions have improved performance.

[Sky]

Yaaay! I'm finally looking forward to a new(ish) game!

[Yegolev]

Not really interested in buying this game again.

[Surlyboi]

I'd be tempted to port my GTAO characters to a new system, but just barely.

[Sky]

Maybe next they can port RDR.

All cars now have halogen bulbs woah!!!!!

[MisterNoisy]

New update went live today.  More cars, clothes, missions, etc.  They also rearranged the mission 'Coveted' to deter people from grinding it for easy $$.

Pretty nice if they release with that quality and acceptable framerates. I might even need a PS4 to run it, hah.

[Yegolev]

Fuckin' cougars.

[MisterNoisy]

They posted up release dates for current gen (11/18) and PC (1/27).

[Cyrrex]

I never did get very far into this game (the very first heist and the immediate aftermath) due to some typical gamer ADD, but have itching to get back at it recently.  Now I can't decide if I should just wait for the PS4 version and buy that.  Or wait even longer for the PC version and buy THAT. 

[Falconeer]

PC Version? Colour me interested.

[Cyrrex]

Yeah, but it just got delayed until the end of January or something.  PS4 versions drops in November-ish.

[Surlyboi]

I never got any farther than completing the tutorial in the single player.
