If there's anything more important than my ego around, I want it caught and shot now.
They're def gonna do some kind of DLC / expansion packs, GTA games cost too much to make not to kick out a few quick side games with the engine before making another main series game.

I really really really want a Las Vegas expansion. Do the other parts of San Andreas that GTAV doesn't cover.

Trevor is insane and amazing.

Playing as Lamar in Director Mode = win.
I was flabbergasted by how that biker ganger just let Trevor walk all over him. Maybe they understood that Trevor is a Player Character and thus way tougher than them.

Please give me an option to ban clothing. My Trevor is in a nice set of a charcoal sweater and suit pants, and his insanity is better with the contrast to his sleek clothing. But often he likes to switch into his trailer trash clothing.
Same with Franklin, dude comes out of the mansion into his nice luxury car...

...with a goddamn under armor poo poo and baggy pants.

I realize that they are their own characters with their own styles, but I want to be able to control their story a bit, too.

Ugh, that is the worst possible choice. The Lost and the Damned were the shittyest gang and even garbage Sons of Anarchy had more sound gang-logic, like not having the chapter president ride on the back of someone's bike on his way home from prison. I don't need more mopey protagonists that wants to cling to The Way Things Were.

I'd prefer literally anything else than them. Why not play as Chris Formage or a low level Epsilon Program member? Or Lazlow? Or Cletus. Or that vaguely Asian guy who introduces you to street racing.

Literally anyone other than John Boy and his ineffective gang that is careful to never actually do anything offensive or outlaw-bikerish.

Yeah honestly I figured the whole reason for investing in multiple protagonists would be so that they could have a female PC and not ONLY have a female PC so they don't piss off all the misogynistic gamers.

But nope, they just had 3 dudes. :downs:

At least you can play a woman in GTA Online.

I don't know, I think having a female protagonist would send all sorts of women's rights groups into a tizzy. If her stats were lower than any male character, they'd be all up in arms about how the female character isn't as good as the male character, or if her driving skill was lower they'd be perpetuating stereotypes about female drivers.

But it could possibly put an end to catcalling, agressive pickup artistry and clogging dating site inboxes with dick picks for an entire generation of young men.

I have faith that Rockstar could do their deft-clumy thing with characterization and maybe move the state of gaming a step past 'soaked in outrage culture'.

Rockstar has to worry because a sole main female protag that sends teenaged boys and manchildren into a frothing GamerGate-ish rage will hurt the company's profit margins.

Next GTA game might stick with the switchable 3 protags routine, except there's a female protag included among them.

It actually kinda bugs me how absent women are from the game, besides being crazy bitch characters.

There are no cops, firemen, paramedics, soldiers, FIB agents, or really anyone.
There is a model and sound file for a female deputy, and you can see her stand in front of the Sandy Shore Sheriff's Station, and she can do all the cop things, so she even is in the game already! She just doesn't spawn on patrol or anywhere else.

It'd be really hard to walk or drive in Los Angeles and NOT see a ladycop or a firewoman.

I really wish there were less steps involved in getting into some action on GTA Online. RDR's "pick a mode => run around and punch your opponents in the auto-matched lobby => start game" was quick and easy and I have no idea why they decided to put so many drat menus and load times between me and shooting a man in the face.

Set it in Vice City and have the woman be like Griselda Blanco, a retired drug kingpin who'd essentially be a cross between Tommy Vercetti and Michael Townley.

If nothing else then yeah, I'd love RDR's loading/lobby system where they give you poo poo to do while you wait for people to join. As long as it involves punching people.

Am I crazy, or was there a way to ride around the golf course on golf carts during a golf game? I could've sworn it was possible back on 360 but I played a round of golf last night and I didn't see the option to do that anywhere. :confused:

Edit: I should specify this is on Online.

You can, I did it when I golfed. But I'm pretty sure you have to manually drive the cart to the next hole and if you skip a hole it'll probably be back wherever you left it.

edit: Also yeah you probably should've specified that since I haven't played it online...

I actually just moved it over to a new windows install 2 days ago simply by backing up/copying over the C:\Users\YourName\Documents\Rockstar Games folder. All the saved games are there as far as I can tell, specifically in the "Profiles" folder. I'm not sure why the cloud wouldn't work though.
