Couple of little gripes... I think the healthcare bills are a tad too high, the body armour is too pricey given the effectiveness of the police bullets now (damn they are good shots) and I have spent hours roaming to only find one baseball bat and one health pack. What happened to all of the weapons/armour and collectibles that featured around the map in previous GTA games?

I've found a few bits of armour around the place, and have a look under the pier where the amusement park rides are.
 
Looks like I'm through the story... Wow, I didn't expect that ending, so I'm very amazed. Though, I honestly find the story a bit short, as it only took me 36 hours and 10 minutes to complete it, but that's okay.

Michael: "I'm getting too old for this nonsense." ;)
 
Yep. Just finished the story as well. Good ending.

Went with option C, for the record. I did have to do some looking up though, because I wasn't sure if option C. would have Franklin killed or not.
 
I have been restoring and tuning cars after the..
Bank Robbery Heist

I enjoy tuning and restoring a lot more then actually doing the missions in the game.
 
In real life on the highway, just passed by a billboard that said "Michael's Jewelers." I chuckled a little, remembering the first heist.
 
Is anyone here good at flying the helicopter? I can't land for the life of me without hitting something or messing up the chopper, so any tips is greatly needed. Thanks.
 
The most important to land a helicopter is to be sure you are hovering above the same spot as much as possible. You can peek on the minimap to see how much movement there is. Other than that, practice, practice, practice.

I posted a Facebook status about this just this morning.

Even in all my years of playing Grand Theft Auto, and not going on a murderous rampage may I add, I still haven't learnt the art of landing a helicopter.

I suck incredibly badly at this, yet for some reason I was the pilot in the thousand odd GTA IV online missions.

One of the missions you have to fly back and land at the air base. I somehow managed to land it upside down....
 
You've got to keep the chopper leveled. Give it a bit of time to even out, so it isn't moving to any side. Use the R1/L1 buttons to keep it steady, you don't want to use the analog stick for that. Once the chopper stops swaying about, you're save to descen slowly. Just make sure to do it step by step:

1) Position yourself above the target
2) steady the helicopter
3) descent.

I just died and when I respawned I turned round and punched a guy, knocking him out cold. He fell against the bin and started glitching, looked like he was possed. Michael then said "You should get some help with that personality of yours" I'm in tears here.
 
Can't wait to get home and relieve some of the stress from todays work with a nice bit of GTA V. And, quite untypically: A cold beer. God, I need that right now.
 
Thanks guys but I still suck even at hovering. I can fly but I have terrible judgement at how far I have to slow down when landing. I slow down too late then I come flying through destroying everything and killing myself.
 
Those stupid 50 mph boosts cop cars get, finally killed me. While driving a scooter, I hit a pedestrian and I got an automatic two stars. I knew I could not outrun the cops but I tried. Cop car lines up and rams me and then another cop car comes and sandwiches me at the same time as I'm getting rammed. We exploded and all of of us died.

What do you mean?

You can always retrieve your lost car at the Vehicle Impound.

You're not the only one with this. I did my first missions with Trevor and one of these we're to hover the plane safety after some bikers. I repeated that mission several times, since I often fail to land that plane safely.

I'm pretty sure it was him.

Only read this if you're less than about 10 missions from the end:
He pops up later on too, when you meet at the Kortz Centre and end up having a shootout between Merryweather, the IAA and FIB.
 
Does anyone know where the impound lot is? Franklin lost my car.
