Lord Ephraim posted:Any tips on stealing a fighter jet out of the military base? I tried parachuting in but I get gunned down when I try entering the plane. If I take any longer shooting down guys around the plane, tanks appear and blow me up. The one instance I did manage to get one off the ground, I was instantly hit by a missile. I had success on my first try with some advice someone here had: Take a plane waaaaay high up, skydive and do your best to land directly inside that open hangar, don't do anything except run to the plane jack it and burst outta there. Fly over the ocean until they lose you but don't go too far out. Intel&Sebastian fucked around with this message at 16:58 on Sep 24, 2013 |

I dunno if this has been mentioned before in the old thread, but on the physical map that comes with every version there's a little purple dinosaur icon on the border between Los Santos and Blaine County just by the quarry. I went over there, but I didn't find anything and it's not mentioned on the map's key either. What's that even there for, if anything?

So if BAWSAQ responds to the communitys actions, could we theoretically band together and manipulate the market for our profit?

Hey guys, been playing this for a while and I'm loving it, but I'm wondering if there's anyway to get rid of weapons once you have them. Curiously enough I'm having the opposite problem that I had in GTA IV! Rather I want to get rid of that lovely MG and simply keep the superior Combat MG. Or I don't really need three different pistols and keep switching between them when they all share the same ammo pool.

I don't see a downside to having multiple pistols/submachine guns when you can choose which one comes up in the weapons wheel by default using the D-Pad edit: super unhelpful answer, I know stuart scott fucked around with this message at 17:16 on Sep 24, 2013 |

One thing I really loved finding out, was that you could use the sawed off shotgun for drive-by's (at least on motorcycles). EDIT: Just realized this was something introduced in TLAD, still an awesome mechanic though. Handsome Ralph fucked around with this message at 17:20 on Sep 24, 2013 |

Crappy Jack posted:Some are cool, but mostly just the ones that are like docks and hangars and stuff. The dock in the NW opens up a couple of sidequests, Trevor's airfield gives you some missions, stuff like that. The bars and whatnot generally just give you a payout and the occasional missions. When I bought that Sonar place with the sub outside a strangers and freaks mission opened up for Michael. Spoilers for what it entails. Some lady has a famous husband who used to tool around in a sub and he died out in the ocean and she wants you to look for 30 some sub parts and she'll "Make it worth your while" I spent what felt like an hour or so diving for these parts thinking "bet this rich bitch gives me lots of cheddar!" What she actually gave me was  and a signed autograph of her husband. Michael wasn't liking that and neither was I. So I chased her down and jump tackled that bitch on the stairs. Before she could get up I emptied an entire AP pistol clip into her smug face. I then proceeded to dump gasoline all over her and watched her burn. It was a bittersweet victory. ALL THAT WORK FOR !?!?!?!

Those criticisms of the hunting side missions are spot on. Wow. If each one played out like the introduction but with a different animal and maybe a tricky area to stealth through that would be fine. The constantly shifting winds, goofy score thresholds, time limit, and instadeath cougar attacks would each make it bad and they are all prominent. It doesn't ruin the game and I plan on skipping it from here on out, but I'm surprised hunting was included in its current state.

At least the Rockstar that made RDR was really open to releasing updates that tweaked features. I hope the GTAV is open to that same idea.

Satorr posted:Jesus Christ. Is it worth it to buy properties or are they all as awful as The Hen House? I've owned them for quite a long while as Trevor and I've gotten three calls. One was to deliver booze in a unwieldy vehicle by way of dangerously tiny curved roads in a short amount of time and the other two were to stop a thief. Of course the thief is a goddamn getaway artist who's nearly impossible to keep up with unless you have a sports car. I just bought the sonar place last night, which seems like a good deal. It costs $250k and you get $23k for each nuclear waste you find in the ocean (there's a sonar tracking app on the phone which helps you find them). There are 30 of these wastes which makes it worth it plus whatever else kind of treasure is in the ocean. Raimondi posted:I just checked my stocks this morning on the Social Club website, and it says Hawk And Little is at $1.20? Can anyone confirm it in-game that its finally on the rise? Yeah it finally started moving late last night when I had checked, was 85 cents I think around midnight. Must be a slow mover.

Are some properties designed to only be feasible to purchase post-main story? There's one that is $15,000,000 and that seems like an unattainable amount of money where I'm at right now.

I suppose there are worse problems to have. At least you're not driving around the map looking for weapon pickups, eh lads?

There are 30 of these wastes which makes it worth it plus whatever else kind of treasure is in the ocean. The genius of that stock is that's it's almost a 1:1 ratio. So if it goes up at all you'll still be making a tidy sum. That being said, I'm still not convinced that it's not some social experiment or something.

The golf club isn't feasible to purchase ever. It has the worst ROI in the entire game and takes a hilarious five in game years to pay itself off.

I think you missed a zero in there, but basically yes, I think the absolute best-case scenario pre-finishing the game if you do everything "right" is for a single character to have about 30-40 million total, which isn't enough.

If you commit a crime out of a vehicle, and then get inside one, when the minimap flashes blue and red drive away from the cars and you should become stealthed and you'll escape much faster too. The only thing I can't escape by switching cars is a 5 star wanted level, which to even get to that requires me to basically put myself in a situation where there's no way out but death anyway.

At least that's how I justify it in-game. They are a lot less psychic in 5, that's for sure. I don't recall the cops in 5 ever exhibiting anything that I thought was unbelievable behavior. I had some cops chasing me, so I cut across the road and drove down an alley. I jumped out of my car and ran and hid behind a dumpster. They got out of their car and ran around for a bit looking for me. They didn't find me and just got back in the car and left. Pretty cool.

Finished this poo poo last night. gently caress. Main story was pretty good, I thought the ending heist was a little underwhelming but the mission where you take care of the loose ends was a great way to finish the game. What happens if you try to kill Michael or Trevor? I just hit the deathwish button immediately and figured it would work out. Those are my friends, dude. What a great loving game.

I think that's actually 150 million and it was far beyond my total at the end game. I didn't gently caress around with the stock market and I also constantly hired good people for my heists (dumb idea) so your mileage may vary. Edit: It's also scary as gently caress without a guide because I've bought another theater and all they did was get robbed and get me killed in pursuit of the guy. At least I got his rear end too.

Well finally finished all the story missions and what a ride. Now to go back and complete it 100 percent. At least it's not pigeons this time. God that sucked. Also looked up my stats. Michael (35%): 335 kills, 2 Deaths Franklin (33%) 178 kills, 4 Deaths Trevor (32%) 632 Kills, 17 Deaths. Solution? Use Trevor more  As for the endings: I obviously picked C. I roll with my homies, and I'm not letting some loving FIB tell me what to do. The other options are as what they are. You Kill Trevor, or you kill Michael. It felt weird seeing those endings because it felt like something that Franklin wouldn't do. Michael's ending look like hits Franklin more hard. I enjoyed C more because of how much poo poo they throw at you and Lamar rolls with you. It felt more appropriate because Franklin is the middle man who keeps the team together because Michael/Trevor are at each others throats every time. I grinned when Trevor just said gently caress it when deciding whether to help or not. Also please I know I"m not the only one who enjoyed popping Steven Haines annoying smug rear end with a sniper. I couldn't think of a better ending with all three pushing that car off the cliff and going their own ways. While yeah the conflict between Michael and Trevor don't get resolved it felt more of a truce at that point both accepting that they will never see eye to eye.

Yeah, I don't have issues with the cops in this one. I like that I can extend a cop chase as long as I see fit (cause they're fun), and end it buy driving off a highway overpass into some slummy area, get out on foot and hide. Or drive into the those concrete drainage things and hide under a bridge.
