I'd love to play me some GTA right now, but whatever 50Mb update is currently needed is crashing Social Club before it finishes. I've applied the last Social Club update manually but it's still doing this update, so I guess it's for the game itself, for which there is no manual update that I can find. And uninstalling Social Club entirely apparently requires me to uninstall the entire 60GB GTAV install, so I can't even do that.

loving Christ.

I had the same issue with one of the more recent updates

iirc I went through Rockstar warehouse and verified my installation files and didn't have any more issues after that

I dunno about steam if that's where you scored your copy of GTAV

Copy your gta v folder away from its current location, do the social club re-install rigamarole and proceed all the way to where it is actually downloading from rockstar servers. Close social club, copy the backed up gta v folder into this and start social club again. It will re-verify the files and avoid downloading them.

You can also just launch "gtav.exe -verify" to manually start the verification process though it doesn't sound like that may help? Worth a try before you do the above dance.

These steps will also work for a steam copy.

Always.

I did some exploring with dryer lint last night and we found an alleyway between high rises with ladders and climbable vents and rooftops and all. There are a few areas with service ladders all over buildings that feel like something was supposed to happen there but I've since learned that artists in gta get full ownership of the blocks they're tasked to create from concept to final texturing. What probably happened was a few artists liked the idea of people walking all over their creations and tried to add as many ladders as they could within reason.

There's never anything unique to find in these spots it's just cool to have more vertical options as a pedestrian. The laddered high rise downtown would be perfect for a VIP protection job.

Yeah, all the ladders and fire escapes in the game made me wish there was some kind of parkour mode. The thought of this humble gamer leaping freely, rooftop to rooftop... the pitter-patter of my little boyfeet echoing through the night... ahh... what a bliss that would be :cabot:

Or, as a compromise, just enabling the prat fall button in Online. Its absence is a crime.

At the very least, they should disable that animation of your character sliding off of ledges, because it activates really early and makes jumping off of a lot of ledges impossible.

With our special guest star, RUSH! YAYYYYYYYYY

Did they ever explain why the ragdoll button is absent from GTA Online? It's the best feature in the single player mode, and not having it in Online is some bullshit.

I'm guessing the reason is something along the lines of "our servers would break if everyone was doing Euphoria pratfalls all the time"

I think there are two main considerations Rockstar has when deciding what things to put into Online, is it "fun" and does it motivate the player to spend real money on Shark Cards?

If it's fun but doesn't motivate a player to spend on Shark Cards then they don't put it in. If it's so fun that the player isn't going out and spending money on yachts and cars and clothes then they take it out even if it was in single player.
