Some kind of...

So did they ever fix the garage bugs? I see the patch notes say they did, but I am also reading reports that cars are still disappearing and losing upgrades.

I've seen fun you people wouldn't believe.
Tiki torches on fire off the summit of Kilauea.
I watched disco balls glitter in the dark near the Brandenburg Gate.
All those moments will be lost in time, like crowds in rain.

Time to sleep.

Land shark ahoy!

Okay, at some point someone needs to try to get a shark, or many sharks, into the back of say a dump truck, then hook that with the cargobob (can the cargobob lift a dump truck?), and then drop it on people. Even better if this could all be accomplished in GTA:O.

I haven’t lost a car since the patch. Then again, only the safehouse‐attached garages ate my cars before. The standalone ones were always good to me.

Marnie keeps texting me even after all the Epsilon missions are over and I hosed them over. She sends the same message every time I turn on my game- is this a bug or a hint to there being more?

It's a hint. There are ten epsilon tracts to find scattered around, the texts are giving you a hint as to the location of one

For a developer with so much money and experience they make the most baffling design decisions. Have to land stunt jumps on four/two wheels but due to the cinematic camera half the time you can't even see where you're going to land or whether you're aligned properly. I've been trying a jump across the water in Banning countless times now and I have no loving idea what I'm doing wrong compared to videos and guides online.

Man, I felt horrible *Random Encounter spoilers* Handing that runaway bride over to the Altruists. I know you're playing as the bad guys in this series but I dunno if I can keep doing that.

Also, I know this was intentional, but the Epsilon Program missions after you get the robes are so horrendously tedious.

That's true, but I'm probably not gonna 100% it this go round. Just doing the side story stuff and whatever random encounters I happen upon. And the desert thing is the most tedious part and you can't really search for collectibles then.

Final mission spoilers
I chose the discreet option and stole the police truck but I'm stuck at modding the 3 gauntlet cars, Los Santos Customs will not open so I can't mod the cars. I've tried multiple characters, different cars, using Franklin to buy the one near Sandy Shores and going there instead of the one near the airport, none of this works. In fact the one near Sandy Shores, the garage wouldn't open, but I could walk in through the front door and get the garage doors to open while I'm inside, but driving the car in won't trigger anything. Am I screwed since I don't have a save before choosing the heist path?

You can't use the one that Franklin can buy to mod the cars. Are you sure you're getting the cars from the locations in the email?

Yeah, I tried both the gauntlet car on top of the Pillbox Hills parking garage and the one near CeCe behind the jewelry store. I get the yellow goal indicator to go to the Los Santos Customs near the airport and I go to that one. I tried using all 3 characters and even dying/not dying and I know the correct door because I've looked at youtube videos of people doing it. I've also tried putting sticky bombs on it and it fails me when I get to the door and says the car can't be modded. This really sucks because I am stuck 30+ hours in.

I think the patch was meant for safe house garages eating cars, which still happens.

I was able to consistently get around the garage eating cars by parking cars outside of the safehouse instead of in the garage. I never lost a single car that was parked outside the house. Franklin's house comfortably fits two cars and a motorcycle outside (possibly three cars), Michael's house seems to only keep two sitting around. I never find myself using Trevor so I'm not sure what his situation is like.

If you park more cars than the house can handle outside it seems to lose one or more of them, though.

I wouldn't recommend doing those quests on this run then. The desert thing isn't so bad if you run from one end to the other, using sticky bombs on trucks and trailers along the way and murdering wildlife.

When my therapist was going to gently caress me over and use me to make a TV show his unfortunate rear end just got a taste of the minigun I just brought. I poured it in till he exploded and took out like 6 cars with him 5 FEET out of the driveway. I then went over in soaked up the view of his corpse. Best therapy session I ever had.

Done with all the under-the-bridge flights, knife flights and stunt jumps. :cripes:

Not sure why they didn't use the same pass/fail message for flights, like jumps. That and random weather turbulence made bridge flights easily the worst "fly under stuff" experience in recent sandbox games. Jumps aren't really bad, if you bring a bike that is. I honestly don't know how you'd do a lot of them in a car, that must be a nightmare.

The one I kept failing was due to being too fast, I realized eventually. Quicksaving really helps for all of these "collectibles". Even then, the game "lost" my bike several times when I loaded a quicksave I saved while sitting on it, once it was nowhere to be found and I had to order a new one, and the other times it was in the impound lot for some reason.

There is a very upscale barbershop called Bob Molé on the Vinewood Hills strip near Michael's house (right next to the Ponsonby's). IIRC you get it there; all other barbershops are identical, and he has unique styles for all three characters.
