GTA V - General Thread

[The Bman]

You take those videos with a grain of salt. We get it.

The deleted post by Rockstar was a great find. 👍

I assume that GTA Online will be split between old-gen and new-gen consoles?

 

[Sage Ages]

For my next trick, I'm going to try and fly the stunt plane through the Zancudo tunnel, into the LSIA underground and through one of the half-built skyscrapers.

Have you tried to TV shaped billboard in north-east LS?

Pluto Nash 2?

Pluto Nash 2?

What?

 

[Ken]

What?

When Vanoss and Co. were flying through the TV, they kept metioning Pluto Nash 2. Obscure joke. Sorry.

To me the Youtube 'Please Like and subscribe' just translates as 'I wanna be popular, be my friend?'

At this moment, I feel like Cartman. I want to be frozen and someone better unfreeze me November 17th 11:59 PM

Is it true that what you have bought on the X360/PS3, you keep it on the PS4/X1?

According to the in game message by Rockstar, yes.

I've run out of ideas for things to do, after spending a good twenty minutes shooting cars with the tank without the police noticing and then transporting the biggest boat I could find to the lake in Mirror Park and "sailing" it.

But I have found the stables, the piggery, the barbecue with the people welcoming aliens, a Pharte Gas truck, the weed farm, the Altruist cave, the phone number that gives you hold music, and the "Thelma & Louise" easter egg.

 

[McLaren]

Interesting, but I suggest you don't watch any GTAtuber that posts "LEAKED DLC" videos. They're usually wrong and just do it for money/subscribers.

Ugh, esp. not from DomIsLive who has a terrible reputation in the GTA Community for stealing info & acting as if he is in the insider.

I think I spotted a bunch of plane spotters at the end of the airport runway by the LSC and the first triathlon event. I think it was around 07:00 - 12:00. Something for you to confirm if you've nothing else to do. Have you checked out the FIB and men in white coats at the satellite dishes at around 11am? All very suspicious behaviour IMO.

Yeah, I found them ages ago. One of the UFOs has FIB markings, and one of the satellite dishes is aimed at Fort Zancudo. It's believed that they're tied into the Mount Chiliad mystery, and possibly the Infinity Killer, though exactly how it all ties together - if it does at all; it's believed that the Infinity Killer is separate to the Chiliad mystery.

Started cracking down on getting the 70 gold medals for missions. Went from 20ish up to 51 in about 4 hours. Some trial and error, some frustration and a bit of looking up how to get them done properly. Some of them were just a matter of not taking my time on simple missions. Also realized that you don't have to get everything done at once for gold completion as one mission I missed a vehicle speed percentage objective but since I previously got it, I had the gold medal for that mission after getting it done within the time constraint.

Also realized that picking anything but "Option C" for the ending is a terrible choice. Once I get those gold medals done, I'll only need the 250 million spent... will have to play through a new save to do it since I didn't know about the stock market at the time, win all game modes online which I think the only one I haven't is LTS since I have yet to play any of those, and the one for killing the mugger who mugs you which I'll have a friend help me with.

 

[prisonermonkeys]

Yeah, I found that out, too. I was quite disappointed by it, really. It took a lot of the challenge out of the game.

 

[prisonermonkeys]

I found the bright green toxic waste pool at the Humane Labs and jumped in ... nothing happened.

 

[GTPorsche]

70 gold medals accomplished. Now I can get to work on the rest of the trophies I need for the platinum.

I'm doing this too, it's the final trophy for me. Taking some time to do it though, killing randoms is more fun so it's slowly slowly for me. All in good time.

Ruined my no deaths stat re-playing missions whilst being half asleep . Forgot to reload and saved over my save file .

 

[prisonermonkeys]

Just found something super-creepy. I was exploring Mount Josiah at night, and came down off the mountain near Stab City at around 1:30am. Halfway between the biker hangout and the turn-off into Raton Canyon was a Sheriff's Department cruiser in the middle of the road with its doors open, headlights on high-beam and coloured lights flashing ... and not a soul around. I stayed there, watching until sunrise, but no-one ever approached the car.

Probably a glitch.

 

[GTPorsche]

Could have been a chase that ended in the cops walking off. I've seen it happen a few times where the cops will kill the guys they were chasing and then walk away from the area.

 

[Jay.]

Has anyone here been kicked from a lobby/session? If so, are you told you are being or have been kicked?

Reason for asking is a few days ago three guys started chasing me. All between lvl120 & 180. They killed me once. I returned fire and ended up killing each of them 6 or 7 times, and they kept asking for more. Boy were they pissed.
Next thing I see is...
***** left
******** left
****** left
The WHOLE lobby left (about 10-12 people) and I was then running solo.
Is this what happens when you're kicked? Or just some freak coincidence/server thing?

Mass disconnect. It's happened to me a bunch of times. When you've been kicked, you will receive a message against a black background, similar to when you disconnect your controller.

 

[Davidies]

Happens to me at least once every time I play.

 

[Jay.]

That's what I thought, though I wasn't completely disconnected. I was left alone in an open lobby.

 

[Davidies]

Yea, that's usually what happens.

 

[driftinziggy]

I have had it happen and even though I was alone on my map and no other players listed as in the room .. i still heard people chatting... I drove around the city looking for action but no one was around

I've been in contact with friends in rooms when this happens, they all say they are alone too. So to everyone else it's the same as it is for you.

Did the first assassination mission after investing all the money from each character into the stock the guide said to. Kept an eye on it after the mission and noticed it got to 50%, but the guide said 80% so I kept going but noticed it started to drop so I sold what I had. At this point of the game, it's such little money that it hopefully shouldn't be an issue in the grand scheme of earning as much money as I can at end-game time.
