I SAID GOOD DAY SIR
I started up a mission with a few pubbies yesterday and when everyone got into their cars to drive to the mission, they started smashing into each other like you'd expect pubbies to do in a race. I just immediately left the session. Playing with pubbies is a bad idea.

Green Man Gaming has the PC pre-order for 23% off right now, but you don't get a Steam key.

Any reason to pay extra for a Steam key? I'd rather have it through Steam, but I assume Steam just launches Rockstar's stupid Social Club thing anyway.

Rockstar.. uhm... I don't think tennis works that way.
And on that note I know RPG's aren't all that accurate but 130 degree angle misfires are a bit excessive.

I am sure a hacker knows all about rewarding and accomplished behavior. I mean, raping a chick with some mickeys is the same is getting laid right? Same result amirite guys? Nothing like work and not having to do it and get that sweet sweet payoff. :smug:
just had an odd occurance, mic chat up the wazoo for a 10 person lobby, and no one wanted the special crate, with it being a topic of discussion and how rare they are.

pubbies are magical.

edit, also nabbed a chrome dubsta, and a second to sell. Couldn't manage a third for when my 45-48th minute was up. I saved one so, I can obviously seed more, but now I want one of the sangkings or grangers(?)

You barely ever see people with custom plates on their vehicles and I wonder if it's because R* pretty much forgot about the ifruit app right after launch.

I think they only bothered with it again when you could push through mods vehicles weren't meant to have.
I have a lime green Weazel News van from that and I think my insured BMX has bulletproof tires.

You've got to know the rules before you can break 'em. Otherwise, it's no fun.

I had custom plates but at some point just before the current gen versions launched my custom plate became a random collection of letters and numbers. I can still assign it, and it always assigns the same random set, but it's not the plate shown in iFruit. So, pretty much useless for me.

Yeah, Cute As Heck wins the best custom plate in my mind.

My plate before it hosed up was 88MAGNUM.

Back when that still worked you could use the iFruit app injection methods to change your plate to almost anything and it stuck until you'd push another order through with the app (why would anyone do this though, the app sucks really bad).

You can have different plates on different cars? After I made a custom one in the app it wouldn't let me type in the license plate ever again.

On the moon... they don't make Neo Kobe Pizza.

I'm an unoriginal clod and made mine my character's name, before realizing that it's virtually impossible to see another character's name in the game.

Seriously why do we even name these idiots if no one can see it.

Mines just my PSN name since its 8 characters long.

I did somehow manage to get separate private plates for singleplayer though, so Michael Franklin and Trevor all have my wife's name as their numberplate because I was dicking around with the app and cant figure out how to do it again.

So my game's been having issues putting me into a session, and when it finally works...





Clearly someone and I are doing some space-saving together. I can get into all of them too, and a lot of them are moving around on their own. The Sandking in that last picture is like, riding the Vacca through the garage.

edit: oh poo poo no it isn't, the other player is in here and I just can't see him. The car doors are opening and closing and the cars are driving around empty.

I'm not sure, really. If you have your car/bike in free roam it will usually spawn at the mission start with you. Are you sure its not impounded or destroyed?

All this stupid license plate talk made me finally decide I should try and make mine work. It was still the same one from PS3, so I put a ticket in to reset it, went and tried it once more, and voila it works! I'm pleased.. especially since I can't change my PSN name now.. dicks.
