Yesss finally we can bounce again. I know it's a side note but I hope the new clothes and haircuts are decent. The high life update had some good things but mostly trash clothing for idiots and babies.

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

Clothing-wise I think I'm most excited about the letterman jacket shown in the first picture.



Because I can only assume there'll be multiple versions of it and with that big B stitched on it I can make a Jacket costume at long last.

You tell me I didn't build that?

I'll have you know I worked my fingers to the bone to get where I am today.
The Rockstar Newswire post says is on the 20th. All the screenshots seem to show the same sort of cars you expect, so assumably you can't put hydraulics on your monster truck or supercar of choice.

But if anyone on PS4 wants to get something together, or help me run through a few heists, I've got this weekend off, which is going to have to be enough time to save up enough for a third garage and a bunch of new cars, because I don't have the time to play this game through the week anymore.

Uh, dumb question probably, but every time I see someone on this, there isn't a prompt to join game, there is instead a prompt to buy a virtual copy of GTA, is this because PSN is kind of dumb and doesn't realise my disk copy is the same game, or am I just doing something wrong?

I see it being interesting for the first 5 minutes, then we'll be bored again because there's no new missions or heists to drive them to.

Also, what if these are special vehicles, similar to Pegasus, so we can't use them in missions

When Fury Road came out, Rockstar missed the opportunity to let us buy old scrap vehicles and turn them into killing machines :(

Well, I have a reason to reinstall. Kinda weird it took them this long to include such an addition.

And of course I cleaned out my garages to make room for the lowriders and they go and give us a fourth garage. :v:

let's do it

I have a disc copy too, I haven't had that happen. There's a tab on the community page for "Now Playing" that should show available sessions, that's all I know.

Did they ever explain why they even have a garage limit? Is it the database load of everyone potentially having a bajillion vehicles saved?

That's the most logical answer but really it's because Rockstar hates fun.

I'm pretty sure it had something to do with rickety rear end 360/PS3 limitations, which no longer matter because they've halted updates for those versions

I'm almost certain it has to do with database size and load, as well as connection stuff... regardless of platform. Given how many characters there are, on all platforms, including alternate characters... that's a lot of potential data, given that you could potentially have about 33 garages and 238 vehicles per character. I'm no DBA, but I'd assume the larger the database, the longer it takes to find a specific piece of data in it, and it has to do that every single time you join a session. Having to send more data only means more network traffic, and that would also effect the server's infrastructure, which as we all know is hosted on a 486 on an AOL dialup connection.

Why did they pick 3? Who knows

Thanks to a nice pubbie taking me on the Fleeca job I have enough money for my own high-end apartment, so I finally have access to my own raids.

If people are coming back on PS4 to earn up some cash for the lowriders, feel free to add von_nass as I would love to do some heists with goons rather than random selections of pubbies who are varying degrees of terrible.

Yeah, I'll try to grab you if I see you. I tried sending you a bunch of invites yesterday when I saw how new your character was but I didn't manage to get you.


Not to jinx it or anything, but could this actually be a GOOD update?
