I can get the misogyny, but GTA as a series has been way more progressive with its choice of leads than most other games. Just remember how much poo poo they got for making you play as a :siren:BLACK MAN:siren: when SA was first getting shown off. They don't handle it with a feather soft touch, but up until this game all the main characters in the HD games had been minorities and men of color (even Johnny K was jewish, even though it didn't really come into play that much during TLAD). I think that's a way more important step forward than the weak handed 'oh you can MAKE your dude black/asian/hispanic but he'll still be written like a default white guy' that a lot of games with character creation do.

It's funny because he said a thing, but he didn't really mean the thing, and some people read the thing he wrote and thought he meant it! I read about jokes in a book once and they sound very similar to what happened here

I just got a bit of a glitch. After hanging out with Franklin as Michael at a bar, when sobering up my car locked up and stopped where it was. I couldn't get out or move the car, nor shoot from windows. I could honk the horn all I liked though. However, I somehow got a wanted level before it locked up. So, for like ten minutes I had cops approaching my locked down car, and as they get close, Franklin blasts them away with an SMG. It ended with me getting busted, but it was hilarious with all the bodies around the car.

The first one or the second one? The first one was easy, you just have to account for the inherited motion of the plane, get as low as you safely can before you drop to make it easier. The second mission was more annoying only because you have to line up in the right direction before starting your runs.

Since the only stock we have seen actually bottom out and recover is HAL and that took 4 days around 0.50-1$ I think you might make it home in time.

Clusters? It's better to drop earlier than later with those, and obviously make sure to line up correctly. They drop in a decent long line but if your angle is off you'll miss a target usually. Take the time to line up, and don't be afraid to get somewhat low even with people shooting at you. Then drop a little earlier than you think you normally would.

I imagine some people would like some surprises on their own rather than having people spoil every single surprise in the game.

I really hope there is some dlc where I get to kill Lamar. I was already sick of the "we gotta be true to the skreets dog" poo poo in San Andreas. I sure as gently caress don't want to deal with it in this game. Why is it whenever a black person becomes successful, some rear end in a top hat comes along to complain he isn't gangsta enough? At least franklin seems to see through the bullshit unlike cj.

It can't be that hard to make some sort of random assassination target generator. Target ped spawns in area, random weapon drop, flagged as a enemy/gang group, pow.

Then again this is the same developer that couldn't get garage inventory right so :v:

Lamar is actually the best character in the game and the real travesty is that there isn't more of him. :colbert:

Tap "A" to drink!!!

So at around the half point mark in the game, I believe, my characters all seem to have gravitated towards a certain gun. Did this happen for everyone else as well? Trevor has thousands of shotgun ammo, Michael has a lot of carbine ammo, and Franklin has a bunch of SMG/Pistol ammo. I never really visited Ammunation except for missions that required you to buy stuff. Do they pick up ammo on their own when you aren't controlling them? Mission rewards?
