I SAID GOOD DAY SIR
I'm working late shift all this week so I won't be on at the normal goon hour™ which blows, since I want to get into these right away and establish good heist groups.

But we all know this poo poo isn't gonna work right until like, Friday anyway.

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

New updated list of leaked Heist stuff including prices on new clothing and masks. Some of the new clothing items are pretty drat expensive! $45,000 outfit that comes in 4 different varieties, multiple $25,000 masks (including Impotent Rage and Princess Bubblegum), and I assume that the ones priced $0 are unlocks for beating certain heists.

I'm not super surprised. With Heists paying out more inflation was sure to happen. Goddamn irrational exuberance.

Instead of loving people into playing poo poo game modes because they are unpopular maybe they should working on making them less poo poo.

If people don't play something there is generally a reason.

Also, the one class of cars that should have chrome rims, muscle, has the absolute most poo poo requirement.

I would love to be a fly on the wall at Rockstar and see usage numbers - I can't remember the last time I received a free roam invite to a Capture. The only time I've played a Capture in the last several months was with Goons. Same with LTS - though I see a ton of Deathmatch invites.

I think captures are good in theory. But people don't want an objective (deliver a bus :downs: ) when they can just as easily kill other players.

Haha, forgot it was you I ramped.

The audio recording thing is weird, it should record it for you, but you have to set it in like devices or some crap. Based on discussion in the PS4 thread if it's just set in the party you created then I think that just let's the party audio get captured for a stream, but not for a straight up capture. So you'd have to stream it to twitch with archive on, then export that to youtube through whatever means, and edit it there. Or we could just use the in-game chat system and then it should capture it but it'd be a lot quieter. Best option is probably to continue not caring.

I'll be on a bunch provided it's not some crazy late release. Use PSN parties if you want reliable communications.

Also I've got the PS4 hooked up to videocapture gear again so I'll be able to grab voicecomms when recording heists.

Unless it secretly records and stores video (which it might, idk) I don't have anything. If you're talking about when I suicided during that race, I don't have any idea what caused it. I wasn't more than a couple of feet off the pavement then, though.

I can't even select the option to allow mine to record. I'm using a Yeti USB mic, which the playstation sees as a headset. I have to set all audio to go through the headset and use a workaround to get it to output through the monitor. For some reason this greys out the "allow my voice to be recorded" thing.

Is that in the party chat options? Cause that's not that option....looking into it the option isn't where I thought it was: Share button > Options button > Share Settings > Video Clip Settings > Check "Include Microphone Audio in Video Clip". Some have said there's an option in Broadcast settings that'll let you be recorded for a party, but it sounds like it needs to be streamed, but it can also be captured normally while streaming, so that's sorta convoluted.

Fake edit: Apparently everyone needs to opt-in in those party settings since it's illegal in some places to record other people's voices without consent and that's why this is a mess.

Typically the patch is live Monday at like 4AM, but honestly I am wondering too since there is no update now, and it is suppose to launch tomorrow. I wonder if that means it will be 4am on a tuesday instead of monday for once?

Eithercase, knowing I need bookooo bucks, and even with some of those silly unlocks being 50+ heists, I still would like to get some bucks rolling in, so I can secure a new car, or jet and flare gun asap.

Yeah, even after checking Include Microphone under video clip settings and broadcast settings, as well as allowing party chat to be recorded under broadcast settings, I still can't opt-in under party settings. Apparently you do have to actually be streaming before that option is available, so it probably isn't actually my mic.

It might be in your best interest to do the heists on console where cheating is less likely to happen, where I am sure the PC will be a wild west. Also your money transfers from 360->pc with the character, so why not?

edit; I'll be on probably all day, doing missions. I can do races and other stuff too I guess, but I need some fat stacks. I wish I saved more dubstas with trombone and suspension than just 1 platinum and gold version.

Well with those settings your voice should still come through on anything you record, but yeah, looks like the only "fix" for this is to have the party owner streaming on low quality to alleviate any lag, and have everyone opt-in. I think that'll let the party owner save videos with everyone talking but others wouldn't be able to, so it's still sorta poo poo, but I don't think it's anything we explicitly need right now even though I'm pretty sure most of us would have it on if it was a simple option to just let anyone record your voice in any manner.

Also I'll be down for heists tomorrow assuming they're working at all. Otherwise I'll probably be playing Hotline Miami 2 or something in the likely event the servers poo poo themselves.

Look who showed up! :v:

The one review said it took them 2 or 3 hours to finish an entire heist - five missions altogether. The same group doesn't have to be together, just the one who launches it and bankrolls it. Everyone else gets paid after each mission, the mastermind only gets paid at the end.
