The good thing about video game mods is that you don't have to use them if you don't want to, and you can use them if you do want to. Truly a difficult moral choice in the grand scheme of things.

one of his recent facebook posts was him saying he's not going to do any work on watch dogs because it's going to prevent him from working on gta5. he's also outlined exactly why the installer is taking so long. (it's not just enb, it's full of other mods with countless options)

Ah I thought there was some action you could take within the story to get them killed.

I don't know which was more satisfying, killing Haines or Devon. I kept trying to snipe Haines but always missed, then I just used the rocket launcher and blew his cargo pants wearing rear end off the Farris wheel.

I can't wait for Jimmy to show back up in the story so I can go Medieval on him with firearms/explosives/vehicles.

Also, how about some spoiler tags?

This game would own so much for 3D sightseeing.

There was an Oculus Rift mod for IV, there will probably be one for V.

I'm working on a project that will bring together an Oculus Rift, stationary bicycle, and wiimote for some serious VR drive-by biking.

Also I was loving about with cheats earlier and thought it'd be fun to combine moon gravity with car bombs, only to discover you can't loving mount a vehicle bomb in single player.

The Dubsta 6x6 is neat. Slow and completely impractical in world full of d-bags that will gun you down the nanosecond they see you for absolutely no reason other than they assume you'll try to shoot them first.

Whoever is working on those must have a pretty stressful work environment, and not that anyone cares anymore but a hearty :laffo: to the idea that they delayed GTAO and all these various features to let people "ease into" the game.

Heists will be modded into the PC version of the game before Rockstar releases whatever it is they're doing.

If they don't have heists ready for the PC/PS4/Bone release, is anybody even going to care anymore? I mean I've already accepted that they're never coming out. How big is the playerbase for GTA:O on 360/PS3 at this point?

Is it possible to just sell a property in GTAO? I forgot I had some PS store bucks and got $200,000 to buy a bitchin' apartment downtown. I still have a two-car garage near that restaurant where the Lost always hang out, and now that I have a 10-car garage, I don't think I'm really gonna need it.

Also is there any other way to make money besides repeatedly joining "Rooftop Rumble" when it pops up

It's there, just waiting for something interesting to happen. If you check out the online thread, every time there's a content update there's a bunch of posters who wake up, try the new stuff, conclude we're not making enough rp or cash out of it unless it's a special weekend, and go back to whatever they were playing before.

I think most of them would stick around if heists were anything decent, but everyone is a little jaded from the show so far.

I am sure a hacker knows all about rewarding and accomplished behavior. I mean, raping a chick with some mickeys is the same is getting laid right? Same result amirite guys? Nothing like work and not having to do it and get that sweet sweet payoff. :smug:
When you try to purchase a property already owning one it will ask to replace what one, you will then get some money back for it.

Also this still applies after the recent second apartment update.




I think the GTAO is fun even without heists. I understand high payouts but I wouldn't expect anything north of 25k for taking upwards of 30 minutes, which really isn't good money when it comes down to money/time invested. I'm fine with them not including until the ps4, however, I would like to try them before that, since I am still pretty on the fence with double dipping.


I think it would be real cool for R* to do one of the digital ps3->ps4 upgrades, as long as you keep your disc. I don't want to rebuy a CE to get the goodies, if those aren't crossbuy or something for previous CE owners. I'm not exactly comfortable rebuying at full price, even if I enjoy the game as much as I do. I would trade my ps3 copy in towards the ps4, but I got a sweet sweet metalbook case. I am just going to have to wait it out for how R* plans to handle it all.


edit ^^ thanks for bringing up the special event. There was an update and this weekend they are doing a bunch of silly things that will net extra RP/GTA$ and 3 special clothes on one day only for fri/sat/sun.

I notice Rockstar's announcement about the hipster DLC doesn't mention if the cars and so on would be available in story mode too, like they have done for all the previous ones. Are they? I know they tend to only add the cars/weapons anyway and not the cool new clothes, masks, etc. but still, as long as they're free then I've felt like adding something to the game in an effort to spice things up. I don't play online so that's all that would interest me.

Yeah it's a given at this point that any cars released in multiplayer will also be available in singleplayer too.

The Panto is my fav because it can drive up and down the sides of the LS river like a freaking half pipe. I'm not sure why people are so obsessed with multiplayer when all they do is grind and talk about how miserable grinding makes them.

Honestly what else is there to do that wouldn't be the exact same in SP? It is just MP guys like doing it together rather than being an anti-social sociopath in singleplayer.

Robbing liquor stores is pretty fun with a buddy. Why even bother in sp, when money is pointless and trivial due to the stock market. Online makes getting cash fun and worthwhile, even if the economy is pretty poo poo with all the glitches and cheaters.

Single player is pretty poo poo given how static the overworld is, when will Michael/Trevor/Franklin ever have to deal with some psycho tearing up DT Los Santos in a tank? The only person that is going to stop the player in sp from a rampage is boredom of not having a more challenging opponent. Going against lovely AI cops that never change their behavior making rampaging pretty static and lovely. Not having to deal with a merryweather airstrike or buzzard attack from another player just sounds boring.

Are you on ps3 or 360? Is it the initial loading screen? When patching, are you allowing the sirens and 5 stars to fully load up before hitting "continue" or "accept" for the update?
