if you are having trouble driving, set the default driving view to be a further/wider camera. that helped me a lot, i was terrible at first.

It pissed me off how in the tutorial it tried to tell you how things worked while you were trying to drive down the road or weave through traffic. I mean I know the basics but not the little new things like special powers or how the health gauge works and crap like that. I felt like I needed to pause the game to read them but if you paused they went away. 9/18/2013 11:53:16 AM |

you can pull them back up in the pause menu, but with the pause menu lag delay its frustrating
i wish they were more visible and stayed up a little longer. or maybe if they had a quick button to cycle through the last messages. 9/18/2013 11:58:55 AM |

I am annoyed by that as well. It proved that texting and driving result in mission failure by plowing through and road block instead of turning in front of it 9/18/2013 12:27:38 PM |

Quote : | "Three bozo gamers pretending to be cops cut the line to buy the new Grand Theft Auto V video game – only to have their virtual reality shattered by real police officers who busted them, authorities said. Kirolos Abdel Sayed, 19, Matthew Kirshen, 20, and Frank Santanastoso, 19, all cruised to the Staten Island Mall in what looked like an unmarked police car — complete with lights and sirens — just after midnight early Tuesday morning, cops said. Once there, Abdel Sayed — an auxiliary volunteer with the 122nd precinct — and Kirshen both flashed phony badges while Santanastoso showed off a tattoo of a police shield to convince mall security they were on patrol, sources said.
The three line-cutters made a beeline for the gaming store after they were let in by security and bought themselves a copy of the game — skipping about 500 people who had been waiting patiently outside for hours, sources said. Inspired by their new purchase, the bootleg cops hopped back in their phony police car, made an illegal U-turn and blew several stop signs before being pulled over by a real cop in an unmarked car, authorities said. “I’m with NYPD,” said Abdel Sayed who was not working as an auxiliary officer at the time, sources said. Kirshen told cops he borrowed a friend’s badge, sources said. All three were arrested and charged with impersonating a police officer." |

What a fucking bitch, and yeah he's annoying too. I've definitely had my fair share of customers like him, but I also hate glorified customer service people like her also. Ugh! Both of them SUCK.
"Fantastic." "That's fantastic." "How's he doing....he's winning, right.....he's winning?" She should have kept her mouth shut after he started walking away. What a dumb ass slut. She was being sarcastic from the beginning! Hate bitches like that. And who says "Fantastic!" after a customer says, "You won't getting my business again."!?!?

Just found out the hard way the game doesn't remember the location of blimps when you save your game.
Which doesn't really matter, unless you save your game while you're standing on top of a blimp.
Also, I found out what I read somewhere (and posted on this thread yesterday) was incorrect. The code in the first run copies of the game isn't to get the blimp skin, it's to be able to fly the blimp. I swear I read somewhere that you wouldn't be required to use the code to fly the blimps, but I hadn't put mine in yet, and I couldn't figure out why I couldn't fly one even after I landed on top of one several times. But I put in the code and it works as advertised. So I guess the pre-order bonus isn't as useless as I originally thought. 9/18/2013 5:52:04 PM |

So by some miraculous turn of good fortune I have the money to pick up the game today. I've got about 3 hours of homework I have to do before I can play. No big deal, I am disciplined enough to do it.
Then I try to open the word document I was working on and must turn in by 12. And its FUCKING CORRUPTED. I haven't had a corrupted document file in god knows how long.

I can verify
even if you cheat code yourself a parachute beforehand
I didnt try to do the parachute while freefalling though, that might work

Not that yall care, but I pre-ordered via Amazon and it was on my doorstep at 1230pm yesterday.
Also, I killed myself by flying the blimp into another blimp. I find it way more difficult to get away from the cops, though. You even so much as nick a pedestrian and you might as well kill yourself, because it's just that hard to get away, unless I'm missing something. I did have the po-po ram me from behind while I was on a motorcycle and kill me. That was lol-worthy 9/18/2013 10:49:30 PM |

After stressing about who was voicing Michael's son (since it sounded familiar) I realized that it was Badger from Breaking Bad.
Then I googled it, and realized that was wrong. It's even more awesome. It's Little Pete from Pete and Pete.

I haven't noticed that. Just drive for a while and you'll shake em. I'd guess I get killed less than 10% after they start chasing me.9/18/2013 11:08:09 PM |

The cop cars definitely have more power in this version. No matter what I am driving, they catch up with me very quickly, as opposed to previous games where you could just floor it in most anything and get away 9/18/2013 11:12:00 PM |

I think when you buy it, it's one of those cars that permanently sticks with your character. Just one you can select or the game cycles through in placements. 9/18/2013 11:58:11 PM |
