[Megathread] Grand Theft Auto V

[Orange Joe]

Apparently not LOL. However, that was in 99' when I was a senior in highschool. All the same, the game is still mostly about stealing cars.

No... There has been plenty of kill mission in each game. Really the missions themselves haven't changed all that much. GTA3 is where it went more to kill/escort missions than stealing cars.

You will be stealing cars during all of those missions and driving them as though you did in fact steal it. lol.

Mario is about jumping. There are activities and enemies which need to be killed and levels which need to be completed. But the entire time you are doing anything at all, you will be jumping.

Which is the same as GTAV. So I guess I don't understand what you were trying to say.

I don't see what everyone is complaining about. I was able to get online just fine yesterday, though it wasn't really fun when everyone is griefing each other.

Bam.

Bam.

Is that online or Single Player?

If single player, which character.

So far I have one for Trev and Michael. Need to get Franklin one.

This is pretty much sums up my GTA Online play so far.

I got into it around 13-14:00 (its 22:20 now so do the math compairing it to where ur from).
I like the way its set up, you have an instance world, and you enter another instance when you do a mission.

HOWEVER

Jesus christ what a community. Half the people just run around killing everything in sight, preferrably players. And not once, twice, nop. Ive seen people die 30 times in 5 mins due to griefers. Instead of actually teaming up and taking down armored vehicles, sad as hell. Gonna be a loooooong road to get a condo.

You know, while I liked the game myself. I found myself agreeing with his points.

For the exact same reason I couldn't stand Red Dead Redemption "online", it's why i've stayed clear of the multiplayer lobies so far. I've hit about rank 7 or 8 just playing solo and already got the "Hold up all 20 stores Trophy". You can run quite a few missions (least all the ones from Simeon and Lamar's drug dealer were fine), as well as play most races solo too.

I've got about 30k in the bank which isn't much, since the cheapest apartment costs about 90k. Strangely, if you run races solo and set them to "GTA mode", the ammo that you pickup actually transfers out of the map. There's one race that goes around the airport that you can set to 1 lap, no cops, no traffic and can be finished in about a minute flat, so you could "grind" out ammo there and never be shot at.

I think if you're playing the game with friends on your own little island it'll be fun. Trying to get 15 other people to co-operate when everyones available to be killed just isn't worth the hassle

Has anyone else had this gamebreaking bug???????

To start off I am annoyed about the online but I can wait for it and I figured there would be problems like this anyway. My problem is this gamebreaking bug for me where I can not progress in the SP story. I have done all side missions and main missions that it let me do.

For about 3 hours I had to sleep and relaunch the game to just to be able to call toyna and do the Tow missions with franklin. It also seems for some the game has been skipping missions since the new patch.

I got no problem with the online being messed up and I get why it is but when updating it breaks SP it piss's me off. I am now stuck and I dropped a lot of hours into GTA today just to do at most 9 missions....

Has anyone else had this problem?

Seems there is a few threads on http://www.ps3trophies.org/ talking about bugs like it.

Also to let people know I am playing a hardcopy on the ps3 and did not deal with any bugs until this. Also the only thing online I been able to do was the starting race that it did not save so now each time I try to go online it try's to repeat it and locks up.

Got online a few hours ago, it's pretty good. Fairly standard mix of co-op missions, races and deathmatches, I did find myself wondering what to do at times, but you get a steady flow of mission alerts through the phone. Making money doesn't seem as easy as they claimed, and you do get prompted to buy from the store. I also haven't really noticed much interaction in the game world. Most of my time was spent in instanced missions.

Weird. Can get onto the server now, but my rank 8 character is nolonger there. I saw it save, so it should be in the cloud somewhere..

That is a pretty well known bug. There is also a chance that your single player char will disappear completely.
