The Official Off Topic GTA Thread

Backroad wander is just Bl3h!

Is it possible to make the "step up". At that jump in the early stages, is it possible to jump up to the flat, ive nearly made it but there are cars always at the bottom and i cant get the angle and speed . T. Vercetti's run is pretty much flawless for that race

Im so pi**ed off today.
I was at the paramedic mission in SA for AGES and i got to level 10 and when i had to pick up a girl, i was doing well and had lots of time. The girl was in an alleyway and i reversed and i accidently ran her over!
I cant belive it, i was only 2 missions away from completing the damn thing and i ruined it by running the stupid bit** over. I wasted an hour when i could of been doing something else more productive.
I wont be doing any paramedic missions anytime soon.

Sex appeal.

[Slick Rick]

You can increase sex appeal by wearing expensive clothes, collecting oysters and having an undamaged nice car like a sports car, luxury car or a lowrider.
To increase your sex appeal i recommend using a sentinel when dating a girl.

Do it in angel pine-- small town-- takes all of 15 minutes to get to level 12.

I would like to remind everyone this is the "off topic" thread-- if you can't keep this off topic I'm going to get Jimmy to lock this---

 

[Slick Rick]

You have been on www.gta-sanandreas.com/.

yea, i would of taken the advice but i hadnt unlocked SF at the time.
Thanks anyway.

That site is really good. I recommend all SA fans to at least have a look.

Wait. I thought this was a thread to ask questions and talk about GTA. If im mistaken, is there a place where we should be discussing things like this like the GT4 general discussion thread?

EDIT: I assumed it was because there have been so many posts here.

 

[Small_Fryz]

His only mucking with ya

Your pretty much free to post here if you dont think its worth a new thread 👍, Not many posts lately but we all check in every now and again so it wont take long to get a question answered.

Thats nice Deil over 400 👍 i think i have 3xx i have the exact number in the record book thread.

 

[Slick Rick]

Ooops!

Yea There havent been many posts here lately but ive been REALLY getting bored of GT4 lately so i started an new game in SA to try and get 100% and the games amazing!! i cant belive how much fun it can be even though i have already completed it!

Hopefully we can bring the GTA forum back to life the more we post here. 👍

 

[Small_Fryz]

Yeah, feel free to tackle some records from the record book, thats kept me busy since 100%, way back at 70hours gameplay. Now im at about 230 hours . 160hours of just mucking around and chasing records (mostly races). I dont want to do the story line again, never really liked any missions.

 

[Slick Rick]

Something REALLY weird just happened to me in SA.
I was just doing the trucker missions and it was the one where i had to transport illegal goods to wheatstone?? anyway i was on the motorway when an annoing Rancher kept ramming me from the side making my truck hard to control so i thoughed id just ram him off the road. I changed the veiw twice to get a better look and the third time i changed the veiw ( and you'll never belive this!) the veiw went onto the Rancher!!!. I could still control my truck but from the veiw of the Rancher!
It felt soooo weird!

Has anyone had a glitch like this?

See. GT4 has loads of glitches and everyone hates them and complains about them but when theres a glitch in GTA SA its most of the time REALLY cool and fun! 👍

 

[Blake]

That's weird...

So the other day I was having sex with this prostitute and the back of the car jumped about 7 ft into the air, and on the next 'bounce' it flipped the car over ... CJ needs to settle down ... lmao.

If there's one thing I don't care about doing in San Andreas - it's the bloody stupid girlfriend thing. As soon as I started dating the nurse and the cop after getting 100%, I've just quit going near them. I don't care about getting any of the cars or anything - I'm just happy to be able to keep my weapons and stuff after getting busted or wasted - so I don't get pissed off after losing my weapons after getting killed during a lengthy SA playing session.

I also haven't even completed the unique jumps. I've found 48 without the help of guides and I haven't been looking for any more. I probably haven't found one in the last 50 hours of gameplay.

All I do these days is mostly get into a fast car or motorbike and just explore. San Andreas is so freaking huge that I still find things I'd never noticed before. In 180 hours of gameplay, I'd never been into Ryder's back garden - I didn't know that those holes and dirtmounds were all over his garden from that mission (I can't remember the mission name - where Ryder's stoned and can't remember where he buried something). There's also a hidden tunnel with a police bribe by the beach near the savepoint in Fort Carson that comes out at the beach by the hill up to the Big Ear - I'd never seen it before.

If you collect all 50 oysters, it won`t matter how ya look, as Michelle, Katie, Barbara, & Helena will invite you for "coffee",even on the very first date. So feel free to wear that pink mohawk-eyepatch-underwear-snakeskin boots outfit proudly.

I think your CJ's been in jail too many times!

 

[Deli Dingo]

Thanks! I've actually been working on some records lately, so I'll probably have a big update on the recordbook in the next couple of days when I have a little free time.

Sad thing is I've never been busted on San Andreas....

[Small_Fryz]

where art thou fellow GTA players?

This is a ghost town!

Ive played GTA SA more than VC and 3 put together now, maybe nearly twice as much.

Whats all my fellow comrades up to?

whos still here after the GTA SA craze has left?

 

[KieranMurphy]

I'm still here! I stopped playing San Andreas for a while but I'm back playing it now.

This place has become very deserted. About this long after Vice City was released, it was very busy here.

I like arsing around - exploring, getting into cop chases, zooming around in a Bullet or Infernus, doing stunts, etc.

I've lost interest in the record book. I think after Vice City, I was just all record booked out. But I have some stuff I should post that I've just built up over time - distances travelled etc.

I raced the street races and chopper checkpoints in Vice City to death, but I can't be bothered any more - too much effort and too frustrating.

[Emohawk]

I'm still playing it. I've got to the point in GT4 where most of the races I have left are major time commitments that I can't be bothered with. SA is nice to just screw around in.

I've got a few random stats that are record bookable, but nothing significant. (well, one of them is. Triple the current 1st place )

 

[Blake]

I'm still here, playing SA a fair bit ... just driving around and doing random stuff....

Blake

 

[RancidMilk]

Well I havn't been here in ages. Havn't played SA in ages either. For some reason I'm not really intersted in it that much.

 

[Slick Rick]

Hey guys, i was just doing some missions in San fierro yesterday and one of the missions were that i had to kill Jizzy for his phone. I dont understand why.... could someone explain the storyline behind all that? like why woozies men and CJ wanted to kill T-bone, tureno(spelled right??) and Jizzy.

 

[Spuds725]

Sorry, I forget all the reasons for the story missions...

Spuds checking in.....

I'm still alive-- just had the work week from hell though-- hours worked the last week

Fri-- 12.5 hours
Sat 12.5 hours
Sun 12 hours
Mon 13 hours
Tue 14 hours
Wed 14.5 hours
Thu 16 hours

Weekly total for the 7 days 94.5 hours

I finally had yesterday off but my wife worked so I gotta play dad for 11 hours-- potty training the 2 year old -- the 3 month old is still pretty easy.

Sorry I couldn't update the rankings Deli I should be able to do it on Monday.

I haven't turned on my PS2 in over 3 months now---

The three of them are running a drug ring shipping product to Big Smoke in LS, which is why CJ wants to bring them down. I don't remember why Woozie is supposed to care.
The specific reason for stealing the phone is twofold. One, somebody is supposed to call the phone to give some information about a specific location for some kind of deal to take place (IIRC), and two; CJ is an idiot and can't think of a better plan.

 

[Deli Dingo]

I was playing SA pretty strong the last few weeks. I could use some competition from KM on my latest Chopper Checkpoint time ! There are good memories from Vice City Chopper Checkpoints. I don't think I'd ever get tired of them. Anyways, I have quit San Andreas for a very long time, because of West Point. I think this is my very last post for about 7 weeks. I'll be able to get on the forum after that, but I won't be able to play SA until Christmas break!! Sorry guys . Actually, I think I'm going to make this a formal goodby to all of my great buddies here at GTPlanet. Keep playing GTA, and I'll miss all of you.

See ya.

Cya Deli, hope you have a good time. Keep us posted 👍
