But I like Lamar's rambling.

Because a painfully long, unskippable cutscene, followed by a CONTACT ENABLED race with a bunch of idiots who will do anything to win, then a mission where you are supposed to pretend like you're best buddies and forget all of the assholery that just happened minutes ago, then you get thrust into the big, scary world. Alone. Without the help of your friends.

You're being rather overdramatic, aren't you?

Mine was just me and Lamar, same with the drug deal.

I was lucky enough for that to happen as well when I made my second character, but that was months after the game came out, so there weren't as many players starting online.

There's not that much of a problem with it, though. The design itself is fine, it's the actual players that ruin it.

That's why it's a problem. The players. You have no choice in how to play during those introduction missions.

So how is it Rockstar's fault for apparently 'making a shoddy tutorial' when it's really the 5 year olds not knowing how to play nicely?

Because Rockstar's game makes you go into a public room after I think it's the race? Or that intro mission? But yeah, it makes you go into a public room in which there's always an 8 year old squeaking at you and trying to blow you up. Which is bound to happen (logically thinking) when there's a particular spawn point/area for new players in a public room.

Yeah, but that's not really Rockstar's fault. Half the reason for the online was to meet new players remember.

If people want to meet others, give them the option. Why not just put them to a menu where they decide to go into a public room, invite room, or solo session for the next part of the tutorial?

Yeah I guess that's a good idea, but if everyone just played along nicely it wouldn't be a problem.

Yes, if everyone played nicely we could live an all wholesome life, dining on only the most pristine of wines and bathing in wealth while still holding all of our limbs. But this is the world of Grand Theft Auto, where even the civilian cars run you off the road for no reason. But that's more because they are confused by the big round thing in front of them rather than them being 8 years old and thinking it's funny. :P

Well this is my first 1080p short next-gen *PS4 video... Hope you like it!

Nice 👍

Constructive criticism:

  • Transitions: the song you chose is wonderful. Really helps set the mood. However the transitions look a bit choppy.
    • I suggest you synchronise your transitions with the beat. Whenever the song loops again, transition. Or every other loop/beat.
    • Also length of your clips before each transition. Try to make them equal.
  • Time of day: it upsets the mood when you have consistent late afternoon/evening shots and you stick a morning/noon shot in the middle.
    • It would've made your movie a bit better if you started from the morning and transitioned into the night.
Other than that, very nice!



P.S.:

Did you record using a capture card, or did you make use of the PS4's recording capabilities?

If you used a capture card may I know what hardware and software you used? I have editing software but not the hardware necessary to get me to editing :lol:

The first one I did was with three others and I won. I thought I was supposed to win, or was racing against easy AI.
 
I skipped the tutorial on next gen then was thrown out into a conflict zone.

I find games that require a learning curve at the beginning ted to weed out i desired players.
Elite dangerous is one such examples.
 
Hey guys, I played after 4 months GTA Online again and got the info we can have up to three properties right now... What's the quickiest way to get some money? I'm going after the $200k apartment (closest to my other two apartements, Richards Majestic and Weazel Plaza).

Here's what I've personally been doing:

Download any of the dozens of "Crystal Clear Out 3" Playlists.
Launch and invite everyone you know.
No one accepts? That's alright, cause you can solo this really easy.

Call Merryweather for a heli pickup. Either kill the pilot or let him fly you to fort Zancudo. Land or skydive in, steal a jet (They won't hurt you). Make bombing runs on the meth labs, easy 12-14k a run. If you finish too quick to use the Merryweather chopper again, then take your time, use your car as cover, and snipe as much as possible. The Vagos are stupid, and take cover in plain sight. Watch out for their respawns, which will spawn away from the lab.

Doing it on foot comes out closer to 18k a run, but isn't worth the extra time over the jet method. Not to mention ammo...

Of course, if you have a buzzard, just call it. 4 minutes, 7-12k, easy cash.

Hm, I see... 1,75k per minute doesn't seem bad...

Just incase somebody isn't aware, you can have 3 apartments in the same building. I have 3 at Tinsel Towers. When you pull up to the door, it ask which one you want to enter.

I always wondered that... But I actually prefer to own 3 apartments in different buildings..

Yea haha. But as of right now the most efficient way to make money would probably be to just play jobs and grind them out. Most money glitches are patched minus the ratloader one which only gives you 10,000 everytime.
