another fun thing to do in SA MP was drive-bys. if you shot out of the driver seat of a car, the game gave you a shitload of bonus damage and auto-aim (to make drive-by shooting cars and stuff easier for certain missions), obv something that wasn't balanced with other players in mind.

so if you drove around completely shredding people apart and blowing up cars with that they would get SUPER pissed and call you a cheater etc. good times

Dumb glitch I noticed: they haven't removed Patriot smoke from the iFruit app so you can use it to add multicolored tire smoke even if you missed out on the independence day update. For people who care about that sort of thing. Apparently by hacking the iFruit app itself you can actually make any color smoke you want by altering the hex values for each part if you have a jailbroken/rooted phone.

Also played a bit on a friend's PS4 with the enhanced version and it's way better framerate wise.

I'm okay with this and look forward to Corn Gangg shenanigans. I've already changed my license plates to read "IMP ZONE" using the little app thing.

Rockstar has released more information on heists online; we'll need a planner whose apartment or whatever we'll end up using for whatever heist. I'm loving stoked and can't wait for the unintentional hilarity as we inevitably blow a heist like we have done in Payday 2 so many times.

We've also had some really good Payday 2 runs with Imps and while they're different games I feel like a lot of the same stuff might apply just without Bain being a retard.

Yeah it does. There are also several other undocumented changes mostly dealing with a much more complex world geometry and fixing several glitches. I tried getting into Blue Hell using a few tried and true places and could not in the PS4 version, for example. And there are in my limited experience more explorable areas and stuff that spawns around each area.

Do apartments transfer over? If so one of my chars is loaded. otherwise someone else can do it.

Characters do transfer over. In fact they recently made it so that if someone transferred a character to ps4/Xbox One and really wants to transfer again to PC they can do that too. You also get your pre-order bonuses or Atomic Blimp transferred over for single player if you have those.

They've significantly increased the amount of money you get from all the base online missions too; back when I played online with friends it was that one tunnel mission or the jet hijacking over and over again and it looks like they've fixed that.

There will also be roles for getaway, hacking and other stuff. One of the things Rockstar mentioned a couple of days ago was that supposedly they've figured out a way to make it so that the getaway driver isn't just sitting there doing nothing while the rest of the crew robs things. Maybe they do hacking or hold people off or something?

On a side note remember when Watch Dogs billed itself as what everyone would be playing once it came out since GTAV was "just something to do until Watch Dogs came out"?

You also get bonuses for transferring an existing character; the only one I've seen personally was a Sprunk branded Buffalo that my buddy was driving around in his game but I'm sure there are others. I can't be bothered to check the wiki or whatever since I don't want to spoil the magic of finding Bigfoot in this game or whatever.

If you picked your character "action" as the jacking off motion you could just hold down the button and your character would just keep jacking off and never stop so if you got invited into someone's house you could just airjack all day in between using their shower and a mic to stream "Danger Zone".

this sounds insanely and brutally wacky, as well as being quite random.

awesome, i saw some videos of that and thought it looked extremely cool. i never played gta IV pc really because the driving more or less required a controller, i wonder if it'll be the same thing with 5? I should probably just invest in a gamepad eventually

have they said anything about the system requirements for this poo poo yet? i just ordered a new computer and i'm rly hoping i'll be able to run GTA V on hella high setting

Not by default but you can set it that way if you'd like.

It's pretty hilarious to do a dirt bike race on a scraggly mountainside locked to first person.

P.sure you can swap all willy nilly in singleplayer, and it even has Jedi Knight-like options for auto switching based on context. Segregating in online makes sense, they did so for the different types of aiming on last gen

Again: by default you can switch between third and first person as much as you want in GTA Online, but when you create a mission, you can enforce a certain camera perspective on players.
