Mokinokaro posted:I believe that if you punch him, he gives up. I tried this and it ended up being a one hitter quitter which, while hilarious, considered him to be dead which I didn't want. I retried and just chased after him for a while until Michael stopped yelling and then let him go which seemed to work.

Holy balls, I want this game so bad it's physically painful.  If there's no PC announcement soon I might just cave and get it on the Xbox. Come on Rockstar, get with the times! Release your poo poo on Steam, everyone is doing it. It's so cool. Like, soooooo cool.

Leveling up lovely heist crew members is still useful because their cut never changes.

Then just shoot the registers until they spit out money. Huh wow. That will help with my constant aimless wandering looking for fast money.

Shooting from the car is so terrible that I wouldn't mind if it was like the old GTA's where you could only shoot left or right. Mouse and Keyboard aiming =  I really miss having a trainer to spawn poo poo and gently caress around. I need the health+armor cheat so I can go on a Terminator spree.

Serious advice and spoilers concerning gunman in every single heist: It is important to note that there is never any reason to take a cheap gunman. In all but one mission (data heist) the cheap gunmen will die or otherwise gently caress up, leaving your take about the same as it would be with a good gunman, but with extra annoyance/difficulty In short, there's not much of a reason to use cheap gunman at all.

Yeah, but there's literally only one heist aside from the first one that even pays you in the first place, and even with using the most expensive guys you're still making like $20 million per character.

One thing that annoys me a bit postgame Michael can hang out with Jimmy and Amanda, but not Tracey? She kind of just vanishes except for the odd time you see her at the house. Also (second heist spoiler) I know if you pick the offshore option the minisub spawns next to Trevor's hangar. Does it spawn somewhere else if you picked the freighter or do you just lose out on that somewhat handy option?

Does anyone else feel like the wanted level at like 1-star lasts about twice as long as it should? If I can get two miles away without seeing a single cop, I'd expect to be in the clear. I also don't like the way they're psychic when you're hiding somewhere or how they spawn at the top of Mt. Chiliad, after shooting a solitary hiker with a silenced gun. They really should ease up further on the 1-star thing, given how you get a wanted level for firing off a single shot, stealing a car, running into a car, standing near someone, looking at a cop, getting punched, getting into a car you own, sometimes doing nothing whatsoever... it's just tiresome, even when it's easy to evade. That's why I've always cheated in GTA, it just isn't fun to run from the cops every five minutes. Also random question, can you pick stuff up with the cargobob that you buy from the website, or are people referring to the sky crane when they talk about picking up vehicles? I have a cargobob and there doesn't seem to be any way to pick stuff up with it.

I just spent 9.95!! posted:you get a wanted level for firing off a single shot, stealing a car, running into a car, You can do all of those things without getting a wanted level at all, just don't do it directly in front of a cop. The thread already discussed the "search time" and I think the consensus was that shortening it would basically eliminate any chance of getting caught. Also if you think cops are psychic you need to watch that video of a guy hiding in a bush in plain sight. Hiding works well.

Pickled Kittens posted:Serious advice and spoilers concerning gunman in every single heist: This is not entirely true, cheap gunmen will make it through the final two heists as long as you don't let them sit there and get shot a bunch. They're not scripted to die there like they are in the jewelry store or Paleto Bay. You should definitely make some savings on gunman #1 if you take approach B on the final heist, he barely sees any action and escapes on his own. No point paying Gustavo Mota 14% for that level of work when the lovely 7% guys get it done too.

Trevor and Franklin mission in on Grove Street. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the house they are trying to buy drugs from is CJ's old place right? I only saw a little inside but it looked awful. Are we supposed to take away from this that either CJ left and doesn't care anymore and his brother is probably dead?

Seems pointless and actually more trouble than its worth considering you would most likely have to steal their body back from the cops or some crazy poo poo. Maybe the cops can talk to dead people, but only for 5 hours, like in Fringe...

CJ's place was torn down and a single story crack den took its place. His brother's house is still there but it's boarded up.

Are there any other references to San Andreas outside of Grove Street and that one gold-medal train-jumping "Better than CJ" objective? I really liked that game, and I was kind of disappointed when Leonora Johnson had nothing to do with Carl and Sweet.

L_Harrison posted:Welp, I guess after the (random event) No Country For Old Men, you cannot escape these guys? I guess the developers didn't expect me to find a place to fortify, and just wanted me to die. Instead, I took shelter in a parking garage until the entire roadway leading up to the entrance was blocked. They just kept spawning off on the edge of the minimap and crashing into the growing junk pile, and calling the cops to my position only added to the chaos. I was going to try and raise my wanted level to see the poo poo that was going to happen, but then the game froze after I shot someone. Are you really not supposed to be able to escape? I shot one guy in a truck following me and outran another and got away.

In my file, after I picked up the case and got on the freeway, 3 SUVS spawned behind me chasing. I just stopped my car killed them all, and drove off no problem.
