Yardbomb posted:Hopefully the 32 (Or even more) is right, with a map this big 16 just doesn't seem like it'd be enough. Plus I'm used to the loads of people you can have on a map with SAMP, so I'll take as many people as they can pack in. The way it works apparently is that outside of people you invite it uses some cross game system to dynamically add people travelling your area of the map so you're never too far from other players.

I Might Be Adam posted:This brings up a good question. Where do we go from here, environmentally speaking? People are sick of or complained about Liberty City's tight and gray urban landscape and SA and GTA5 cover the open world and city level environment. Hell, GTA5 covers everything from urban city, to mountains, to desert, and beach/ocean environments. Outside of changing the time in which the game takes place, like RDR, where does GTA go from here? Just bigger environments? Multiple cities in the same state like SA? I mean, Vice City was a nice change from GTA3 but now GTA5 covers the ocean vacation town feel to a decent degree. I'm not saying I wouldn't want a current or next-gen version of Vice City, I just have no idea how they'll keep enhancing environments. Adding interiors to more buildings? I don't know how you can top the current environment that is in GTA5 without just adding more content or tweaking it. SPACE

So the strip club is under new ownership! Since Trevor now has it, I'd just like to double-check: do you need to do anything to get the payout? This is my first property in the game and I get the emails and everything. Thanks in advance! People were talking about another grim scene a while back. I take it they were talking about the part where (I'm about 50% through) Trevor kills (maybe also rapes?) Floyd and his girlfriend? I don't want to invite the whole silly "aww did you not like something nasty in your murder simulator crybaby" brigade to take pot shots at me (I like a bit of blood and guts as much as the next film nerd), but it was still a bit . If that wasn't it, geez! I took my first hitch-hiker to the cult today (the girl whose been partying in the desert). Made me feel a bit dirty. Done all the rampages. The set-ups for them all were very funny, especially the army one and the last one, which I have dubbed SUPER HIPSTER MASSACRE. I like Franklin's car and bike. Then again I am an idiot.

Trains are an amazing location for long rampages, you can just chill in the train, shoot at cars on the highway, the police will come after you but will have a really hard time catching you because as you are on foot, the cops will leave their cars as they get close. You can just slowly escalate the situation, the only thing you really need to look out for are the helicopters which are easy to shoot down. Just stock up on ammo, hop on the train and go on a tour around the state, most of my train goofing off ends with either the train entering a tunnel for long enough that the cops lose me and I get bored or with a badly judged grenade.

Baron FU posted:Maybe GTA:O happens concurrently with the singleplayer story. Would account for the dead guys. And might be a cool way to tie it into the singleplayer story. I kinda hope it happens during the 9 year timeskip, so we can see what Lamar was up to in that interim before working for Simeon and getting into what was essentially a one-man turf war with the Ballas and needing Franklin and the other two to bail his rear end.

Any additional violence on the Ballas would be much welcome. There just wasn't enough, especially considering they are squatting on the old GSF block

I was honestly surprised how much the Ballas were not much of a factor in the story. Apart from a few missions they seemed like a non factor. Though the story was indeed less more of a gang wars this time so it was a nice change of pace.

I don't know why people think Rockstar isn't ballsy enough to add a mall, or maybe a college (no early year schools because they'll never add kids to the game). They made a game called State of Emergency, which I bought and played, that was pretty much all about murdering large groups of people in malls. Rockstar isn't shy about pushing the envelope. Fake edit: Just for clarification, I'm not arguing the ethics of it, just they're ability and willingness to be edgy as gently caress. causticBeet posted:Didn't like every previous GTA game have malls with missions that focused around killing gangs inside them?

Last mission spoilers! Don't read if you haven't finished the last heist! Who the gently caress would actually choose to kill Michael or Trevor? Seems weird to me that they even gave you that option. Of COURSE I'm gonna say gently caress you to those fucks and go out, middle fingers raised, shooting everybody who comes at me. Michael has a strong future in filmmaking, and Trevor has a long future loving Patricia and killing everyone in San Andreas.

Timeless Appeal posted:I like that the last five years has had people complaining about the dissonance between the player and the character, and how they wanted someone who was a maniac. But I think most people meant they just wanted someone like the Boss or Tommy who are objectively monstrous but live in a cartoon world where it's hard to care. Instead they presented us with a methed out, ADHD ridden, unrepentant psychopath who probably has herpes and is legitimately terrifying. I think they set the tone really well in his first mission. I really love the characters he murders, and it's upsetting to watch what he does to them. I was one of the people who defended Niko's characterisation to a degree (along with attaching generic verisimilitude allowing for "dissonance" between the storyline and random homemade rampages), so I predictably sit in a similar place to you. Trevor's an interesting character, but a bit upsetting nonetheless. I replayed Vice City over the summer (I got the lousy t-shirt) and I really don't like Tommy for that reason in hindsight. I mentioned above that I found V's rampages funny, but that's honestly a bit of a rarity when it comes to the series for me due to the deliberately absurd set-ups this time around. There's a mission in Vice City where Tommy has to fill a "chaosmeter" by committing random acts of violence, all to... impress a biker. A bit silly really and I feel like that's where - as stories - the series is a bit weak. At least Trevor goes beyond that in terms of characterisation.

Michael's special ability can do some fun things. This guy took a mini uzi mag to the chest, after two shots he dropped to his knees and the impact of the bullets kept him pinned against his car door until I ran empty and he fell over.

tooooooo bad posted:You can't just drive right in front of a cop when your arrow is grey. They don't know which car you're in but they're still looking for you, so if they're able to get a good look at your face because you're too close to them they'll come after you again. You can skirt through cones safely but don't just hang out in them. Changing cars also seems to make your wanted status go away a lot quicker so it's really worth doing. I was ridiculously close to a cop, way in the cone but in a new car (grey icon). Basically it was a 4 row parking lot like this: <----road---> | | | | | | | <---cop <entrance> | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | |x| | | | | <store wall> I was facing away from the cops, but they drove very close behind me but didn't see me. Seriously, if you can get into a parking lot and steal a new car, just loving sit there facing the walls until the wanted level disappears or the cops actually locate you

poo poo. After losing a custom car very early in the game I did some testing and thought I figured out how to ensure that I didn't lose the cars, and I haven't lost any. Until now. Both supercars thought I bought and were fully modded totally disappeared out of Michael's home garage for no reason that I can see. It really wouldn't have been so bad if it was 2 random cars from the street. Shiiiiiiiiiit.

^^^^^^ from what I understand is that safe house garages don't permanently store cars, only property garages do. I really love the new wanted system. In past games I almost always used cheats to drop wanted level because losing the cops was so boring, but in 5 it's pretty fun and satisfying every time. My go to strategy is to get as much distance as I can in a car then get out in foot. You can even sort of kite the cops if they're right on you, just climb a building and then jump off and hide.
