All I heard was stuff about boats and not liking Sandy Shores at night.

:lol: We were just doing a few missions wondering if Levo was going to get back online.

You know next time you could always shoot us a message saying you were online and in the game :)

I ended up bonding with HB over a few Lamar missions. One of them was a two-man sniper/shooter dealio (a bit like that heist setup where you infiltrate the bikers, take out their guards and steal a couple of vans). Managed to do it fairly easily despite lack of any communication.

Some right tossers in the game refusing to go in a moonbeam for the 3-4min timer then leaving. Some just stayed there at the side, others just shot random cars while one went in a car and drove around in circles

It annoys me that you can't simply select the new missions and host them - you have to keep trying until you are randomly put into an empty lobby as host, then you can invite people. Seems a very strange decision to go with this process - particularly as it is so different to every other hosting method.

Genuine question - do you think you will ever get a mic?

Ahhhhh was wondering what that message was last night. What pricks.
 
I think if I tried to play with randoms on this, I would have been done with online a long time ago.
 
Aye, I couldn't be dealing with randoms, always play invite only when I'm on my own, or waiting to see if there are any mates or anything that want to play.

I did play that one mission "Pacific Standard - Hack", with randoms when the invite popped up, that was just because I was desperate to unlock the Gang Burrito. Annoyed the crap out of me, the four attempts that it took. How about not running straight into the gunfight dumbasses? That and the back guys constantly opening the doors of the van every other second.
 
The prices for the new Halloween vehicles will apparently be
Lurcher : $666 666
Btype2 : $540 000

Also:
A city blackout and a timecycle modifier called "NoPedLight" will be enabled when you play featured Halloween Jobs.
I think it's only the Slasher adversary mode but I'm not sure if there's more.
They're going to use "_SET_BLACKOUT" native.
This native disables all emissive textures and lights like city lights, car lights, cop car lights according to AlexanderB NativeDB.
What's funny is that meanwhile you're playing some of the Halloween Jobs or Slasher adversary mode, if there's a player nearby then you will hear him breathing !

So if there are game modes specific to Halloween, then it appears as though they will take place in the dark - hence the flashlights.

I really hope these are not just for Halloween - would be great to have something like this always available.
 
Damn, that's pretty salty for the new cars, was hoping for 2-300k a pop, unrealistically, I know.

Kind of want a Super Diamond too, glad I held off on it now, though I haven't the practically necessary gold paint unlocked anyway.

I was a bit confused at first what to do. That's why I fecked up first time.
 
Might be on after the Pats game for a bit.

Was doing heists with randoms last night, was a disaster. I know I wasn't perfect, but at least I wasn't firing a rocket launcher at the convoy we need to hijack, ffs...

"Why is this truck smoking already, we'll never make it..."

Why the feck do you think?

Best you don't play with @Damien then...
 
I played a half an hour of last gen GTA on a borrowed disc so I could clock as a "returning player" for the bonuses.

It was legitimately shit by comparison. I didn't expect that level of difference, in graphics, pop up, feel, everything.
 
There is - the graphical bump really does make a difference. The world that they created feels much more alive. I personally don't use the first person view that much, but it is extremely well implemented - all the textures have had their resolution bumped and it does engage you much more.

The gameplay itself feels much more robust too - you don't feel as though the console is struggling to keep up with what you want to do. Things like flying, or even just driving look and feel much better - you don't have half the objects popping in right in front of your nose!

The other thing to consider is that R* have now dropped support for last gen, so there won't be any more content being released on those platforms. Heists obviously made it onto last gen and current gen, but the new freemode activities, plus the recent lowriders update are current gen only. I get the feeling that whereas in the past most DLC was simple new vehicles and clothes, the new updates will be deeper and more involved - such as with the lowriders and potentially the Halloween update which should be out v soon.

I would definitely get it.
