PC version of GTA V currently rumored to be arriving early 2014 (March-May).
http://www.destructoid.com/gta-v-reportedly-coming-to-pc-in-early-2014-263361.phtml
And should that date come and go, there'll be a fresh rumour in a few weeks.

Return to single player. Stupid, we know.

Huh? Nah, it saves automatically. I just straight shut my PS3 off when I'm done and I've never had any progress loss.
Granted, I've been super careful not to sign in when I read about character issues some days. The last one 4 or 5 days ago, I made sure not to sign in that day and sure enough, my character was fine while like 3 people I know lost theirs.

I've turned it off/dash boarded and I lost my money from recent jobs or any upgrades I spent money on.
I go to single player now and haven't had that problem since.
Kane Knight

The game is supposed to autosave but doesn't always. Going to single-player prompts a save, and therefore is advised.
Kalyx triaD
10-10-2013, 09:37 PM
It does save at random times, I just see the Cloud Save icon with no rhyme or reason. I don't trust it to save after a job, which never happens. It's random.
I'll go with saving by going to Single Player. Not taking chances especially after long grind sessions.
El Fangel
10-10-2013, 10:36 PM
Ah, Ill have to restart. I couldn't find a save so I turned it off. Unless the autosave did work in which case...

Yeah, I mentioned it earlier. Eventually, they stop accepting them so often and offer you less.
I think the police are more sophisticated than we assumed. On one occasion, I was hiding in my car, under a bridge and they were swarming the bridge above and just wouldn't leave. As soon as I turned off my radio, they moved on.
Another time, I was hiding in an alleyway that had an indent in it. I was parked out of site and I assume they saw the car headlights because they passed by the alleyway, couldn't see me but must have seen the headlights because they decided to come down to investigate. I've hidden in a similar spot before on foot and they always past by, unless they clearly saw me go down a certain street or alley.

A stimulus package is coming for all of those that logged on this month because of all the issues.
http://www.rockstargames.com/newswire/article/51565/grand-theft-auto-online-half-a-million-gta-stimulus-package-this.html
Given some of the recent technical issues during these first days of GTA Online, and now that things are starting to look much smoother (touch wood!), we are planning to provide a special stimulus package for all who have played or will play Grand Theft Auto Online this month. We will be dropping a cool half a million GTA$ in the GTA Online bank accounts of all players this month, starting as early as next week.

Well that's nice enough, I wont focus on Carjacking the nice cars for the 7K.
Doesn't gifting that much money kinda take away from the point of the game? Why complete missions/heists/hold up stores/etc if you can wait to be given $500,000? Seems like a ridiculous amount.

So they're giving everybody more than enough to buy the most expensive apartment? Seems a bit daft to me.

I don't think you quite understand the backlash over the problems they were having. TPWW is fairly reasonable when it comes to this stuff, but we're a small minority. Go take a gander at the gamefaqs boards.
Also, having an expensive apartment doesn't mean the game is over. Not by a long shot.
Kalyx triaD
10-11-2013, 02:39 PM
Having an apartment isn't nearly as big a deal as leveling up to unlock some nasty shit. We can see now why R* wasn't worried about DLC money packs. A million dollars doesn't get you Lester or Merryweather's awesome services any earlier.
Yeah I just took a look at the high end car prices. I'll be quiet now.

The most money as far as I've seen is from playing Survivor games, but it still would take an hour or more to get to 20-25k with a decent team. Unless Fallen Angel has glitched somehow.

Yeah the survival events is what I was alluding to when I said he couldn't have even unlocked the events necessary to gain large sums of money. Most people I've talked to say they unlock around 18-20, but I did manage to get my first survival mission at 15. And they aren't easy or quick really.

It's not so much that, but the other costs people have mentioned. And that's assuming things stay static, which other people have said they suspect things won't.
Also, we've seen people lose a couple mil, so 500K ain't much for them.
Me, I had a 15 minute time-out while I retrieved my character (lol Savior), so it's plenty.

Yeah, survival starts up at 15. And it's not exactly hard to rank cash in it, but it ain't quick for sure.

Never thought of that, gonna have to do that. Every time I've tried to get a BMX bike and go to one of the half pipes, I always get harassed by random assholes who just want to kill you over and over. Luckily, I have better weapons than most people already so I've been able to hold people off for a while until I finally say fuck it and leave because they won't stop.

Survival takes anywhere from 25-35 minutes with at least 2 buddies we discovered. Faster with 4 of course, but it's good for 20k a person, which isn't bad IMO.
There's a mission called Criminal Records which is a race that lasts roughly 32 seconds. So 1 minute, to 1.5 minutes start to finish with loading and everything. Gives you about 1900 cash and from 350 to 500 RP.
Don't think I've done a Survival. What do they entail?
Really wanna get on for a few solid hours, preferably with some of you guys but can't get the time at the minute.

10 Waves, each wave gets harder. Helicopters come in at a few points. Depending on the map, they can be easy or fucking hard. There are places on some maps that are just designed to be held off, and there are some maps that are built so awkwardly that you're always frantically trying to stay alive.
One good thing is that any guns you pick up during the match, you get to keep. Until you die or run out of ammo, or reload the game. I'm not entirely sure. I've kept some of the guns for a while, and sometimes they've just disappeared from my inventory so I'm not sure on exactly when they go away.
Survival is pretty easy once miniguns come into play. Helicopters are a breeze at that point, and vehicles get shredded and blown up in no time. Sticky bombs also spawn in these gametypes and they can be key in holding off areas. Love waiting till a bunch of vehicles are piled in an area, tossing a single sticky bomb, and taking out a huge group of people.
I think you get more for doing missions with crew members, so maybe that's why I got 20k from mine? I don't remember exactly how that works.

You poor Aspy. You still can't recognize FA making a joke? I almost led off that comment by saying how absurd it would be to think anyone who just started the game could even grind that much money overnight in an all-night play session. No amount of grinding will do that until you are high level and have access to other missions with quick payouts. The fact that he made that comment shortly after the announcement should seem obvious... Further, the fact you thought FAngel capable of doing the same mission over and over to grind money the first night he even plays the online mode.. considering the types of things he bitches about in games. Well.. lol..
But keep going, I always find it hilarious when FAngel comments soar over your head faster than the speed of sound. You grab onto them in predictable fashion, and then refuse to ever admit that you actually don't have FAngel figured out as well as you think.

Usually I love you Req, but come on. Fangel will probably claim that what you are saying here is the truth, but I don't believe it. We all know the 500k isn't coming yet, so if that is what he was referring to, then wtf? Why claim you got something that everyone knows you didn't? No point to it in any way shape or form.
Also, if he was referring to the free 500k, then that means he is saying he pulled a nice long grind session and only made 2k, which is equally laughable.
Requiem
10-11-2013, 05:53 PM
He didn't say he pulled a grind session at all. Everyone else did. He said "I started last night and have 502k. Niiiiiiceeeee." That's literally all he said. Meaning he JUST decided to start playing and they're giving a bunch of money to everyone so he didn't have to do shit and he already essentially has half a mil. Then the lot of you hooked onto it instantly and started attaching all these scenarios to it. He doesn't have $502,000.
How much money did you all have after the first night? I had less than 10k, because it was hard as fuck to keep the money I earned. RoXer said it was almost a week and he was still hovering around 20k and couldn't seem to break the barrier at first.
The proof is in FAngel's bank account, which probably reads $2000 or thereabouts. What is so unbelievable about that? That this is even a discussion is ridiculous.. the desire to hang FAngel for no reason is pathetic.

They really should randomize the location of Simeon's garage. You get people camping over there to steal the deliveries.
Just had an incident where I was on my way there with the premium vehicle, and I noticed another player on the map just standing near the garage. He kept facing my direction even though I was still a bit of a distance from the garage, so I figured he had a sniper rifle.
Got out and ran away, and sure enough he makes a bee line for it as soon as I'm a good distance away. As soon as he gets in, I detonate the sticky bomb I threw on before ditching it.
Ooooooooooo he was so mad. Serves him right. Fucking camper.

I was just going to suggest the bomb thing.
I just thought of something that further proves the $400,000 apartment wont always be the limit and that houses and mansions will someday be buyable. R* said we will be able to buy dogs online but we can't. The only dog in the whole game is Chop, who lives in Franklins backyard.
So we'll need houses with yards before we get dogs.
Also, what happened to the whole "hire a hitman" thing? Would be cool if you could actually hire another player to do it instead of AI but either would be good.

Actually, pimping could have worked online. Befriend a hooker or stripper enough that they give you their number, call them later to arrange a hooker/pimp set up and have them walk the streets for you.
They could generate a couple hundred dollars for you a day, unless a player hires your hooker and you get a bit extra.
From time to time, they call you asking for help or, if a player attacks them, you get notified and can hunt them down. Maybe you can choose to arm your hookers with a knife and/or pistol, for a price?

BS Fangel. Absolute BS and you know it. You haven't had the time to even level up a character to get the kinds of events needed to hoard large amounts of cash if you just started last night.
I figured I would get the 500k as everyone else has.
He's talking about the free 500k you maroons.
I was.
You mean the one not supposed to be out until after an update that's expected next week? The one that's not even going to be paid out in one lump sum? The one they're going to be announcing specific dates for beforehand and haven't yet?
I think Fangerl earning it actually sounds like the less retarded option here.
You think it's less retarded? Good to know if you could find anyone here who gives a fuck what you think.

They really should randomize the location of Simeon's garage. You get people camping over there to steal the deliveries.
Nah, you should expect that sort of thing in free mode.
Fun fact: you can apparently get a wanted rating if Simeon wants your personal vehicle, even though it'll explicitly tell you he doesn't want personal vehicles.
I was just going to suggest the bomb thing.
I just thought of something that further proves the $400,000 apartment wont always be the limit and that houses and mansions will someday be buyable. R* said we will be able to buy dogs online but we can't. The only dog in the whole game is Chop, who lives in Franklins backyard.
So we'll need houses with yards before we get dogs.
This is only proof provided you believe they plan on fulfilling all promises.
And that you need a yard.

I did the Violent Duct mission solo and only got $3000. You'd think you'd get more for going solo.
Also, I parked my car behind a brick wall a while away from the enemies. Not only did they shoot straight through the brick wall and hit my car, they hit the wheel furthest away. Physically impossible shot. Guessing there's some kind of randomness to what hits and where?

Also, what happened to the whole "hire a hitman" thing? Would be cool if you could actually hire another player to do it instead of AI but either would be good.
In the main game, if you provoke a group of Vagos or Ballas gangsters too much, they will occasionally sic a dog on you. And sometimes it only takes 1 or 2 good bites for the fuckers to kill you, too. I've experienced it by doing that with Trevor.

I have no problem with people trying to steal the car from me. That's part of the fun. What's not fun is everyone just rushing to the delivery spot to take me out. It makes the event the same every time.
If the garage was randomly placed, people would have to come to you to steal the car, and it would add a lot of variety to the mission.

This Bad Sport status that R* gives people is a joke. Someone had a bounty on their head so I went after them. They wouldn't leave their car so I blew it up, not knowing it was their personalized car, and got a warning that doing that was wrong of me.
The Bad Sport status hasn't stopped hackers from moving in, already. Last night, I went to get a guy with a bounty on his head only to find he wasn't there. My blip was directly over his blip and he was nowhere to be seen. This was outside the city. He also was able to move very fast from place to place but he wasn't in an aircraft or vehicle. He was still able to kill me in one hit. My theory is he glitched through the ground, like they did in GTA IV.
Something similar happened just now with a bounty who was not visable but blew me up instantly. No rocket fire or grenade landing by me.

Everyone keeps slamming into me and killing each other. I've probably been put in with the bad players because I dared to quit one shooting range minigame days ago (I actually thought it was endless and you just left when you got bored) and blew up someones personal car because I had the gall to go after a bounty and didn't know it was theirs. Why give us explosives if blowing up NPC cars gets us police attention and blowing up players cars gets us a warning about playing nice?
Kalyx triaD
10-13-2013, 03:16 AM
Bad sport deals with bad behavior within the boundaries of official gameplay, not engine hacking shit that's a problem for R* and Microsoft to handle. These are two different things. Think of the difference between a team killer and a guy using a glitch to win. Grievers and hackers are two different animals, and a hacker should not get a Bad Sport rating because he's not playing the game he's breaking it.
Blowing up people's cars was quickly identified by R* to be a major costly bummer for people who are invested in their car, so short of banning you, you get a bad rating for doing this a lot. The owner still suffers payments. Remember there is an economy R* has to be mindful of, and a game like GTA Online could easily sway in a trouble maker's favor if not for provisions against them. I agree with getting a bad rating for trashing somebody's car.

Because NPCs are not players who purchased the game. R* are essentially policing the game. Looking at your complaints, I know for a fact you would absolutely hate the kind of free for all that would exist had R* not regulated certain activities. Careful what you wish for.

I agree with getting a bad rating for trashing somebody's car.
If people don't want their car wrecked, don't take it outside in a public game. Save it for a solo or private room. When I take my cars out, I don't get all pissy about another player wrecking it. I took it out the garage and drove it around in public. If it's destroyed it's my own fault.
The trouble should only start if someone constantly wrecks the cars of the same player over and over again in a short time peroid. Like if I blew up your personal car 4 times in an hour, then I'd say that's hassling you.
At the very least, the "don't destroy other players cars" thing should be dropped if the player in question has a bounty. Then it's justified. If he's not got a bounty on his head, fine, no destroying his personal car.
Also Lester can take you off the map for a fee.
I know but this guy was, physically, not there. I saw his blip but he was not there in the gameworld. Doesn't Lester make your blip vanish and not your character?
Because NPCs are not players who purchased the game. R* are essentially policing the game. Looking at your complaints, I know for a fact you would absolutely hate the kind of free for all that would exist had R* not regulated certain activities. Careful what you wish for.
I just don't like that I am in with the bad players or, at least, on the cusp of being put in with the bad players because I was playing the game properly. If there was a huge symbol above the players car that said "CUSTOM CAR" then I'd not have blown it up to get the bounty.
So, I didn't know it was a personal car, I didn't know there was anything wrong with blowing up a personal car and the game was telling me "Kill this guy and get money", which I did. I then get told off and potentially punished for it.

I'm with Drakul on the personal vehicle issue. If someone is trying to kill you, you should be allowed to defend yourself by any means necessary. I got a bad sport rating when I had a bounty on me, and this guy came after me. We had a war across the countryside shooting at each other in a grand chase. Are cars were ragged by the end and cops were shooting at both of us. Finally I got the last shot in that blew up his car. It was mad fun, but I got a bad sport rating. Never mind that he was shooting my car right back.
Giving a bad sport rating for blowing up personal cars isn't a bad idea, it just needs to be tweaked so that it doesn't interfere with regular gameplay.
Requiem
10-13-2013, 04:03 AM
Ugh, didn't know all that. I might have a bad sport rating now. I have been hunting bounties using sticky bombs. I think it's just a badass way of murdering someone's face. I've set up on highways and waited for the bounty to come to me and then blown the stickies. I've done drive-by stickies on them. I've dropped them on the road as I'm driving and blown people up who are chasing me.
I do this to non-bounty players too if they're after me. If I'm defending myself against some guy shooting the piss out of my car or trying to kill me, or if I'm after a bounty, I shouldn't get a bad rating IMO. :(

If they have to have the "no blowing up personal cars" thing, all they have to do to make it fair is indicate that it's a personal car. For example, if a player is driving a personal car, turn their blip from O to a square on the map/radar. If that player has a bounty on their head, their car is fair game.

Have had some awesome moments. Collecting bounties is by far my favorite thing to do in this game.
Went on a super long chase following these 2 bounties around the map. One was in a helicopter and appeared to be chasing the other. So I was on the ground in my car (which I've upgraded and is awesome.. turbos are AMAZING), chasing this guy.. ended up really trashing my vehicle going offroad and shit just trying to keep up.. so I stopped at a mod shop, repaired my car, and came out to some guy trying to kill me. Got away with a well timed sticky bomb and went after the ground guy again. Got to a corner of freeway where I could see down into the bay where the guy was. The helicopter guy had apparently picked up a friend who was now flying, with the bounty in the passenger. He arrived above the ground bounty, who I didn't have a shot on. So I scope in, shoot the pilot out of the helicopter, sending it plummeting into the bay. 1 bounty down. I take aim at the second guy, who now has another player on the ground shooting at him. BOOM, just as the other guy charges him, taking his health down. My shot is the killshot though. 2nd bounty down.
I love this game.

It makes no sense. Dying costs you something like $500 and regaining your car after it's been destroyed is $1000. It's not like it's gone forever. $1000 isn't much considering how uncommon it is for personal cars to be destroyed. Also, someone doesn't want their person car destroyed? Ramp up its armour, then.

I find Deathmatch and Last Man Standing the least interesting game modes. The shooting mechanics are too shoddy, especially online, for it to be much good.

I take it when Simeon wants a car he's not just texting you but he is texting everyone else as well? Found that out last night.

Tried passive mode once, pointless, makes you a target. People can shoot you through your windshield or run you over if you are outside of your car.
Thought you couldn't go passive if you're in a car?

Passive mode is a stupid idea anyway. It's Grand Theft Auto, the game has been about being an antisocial prick since its inception.
I got warned earlier from dropping out before completing a mission. I'd been kicked from the session by other players. Not even sure what that means.

For real, if I'm gonna be called a "Bad Sport" for dropping out of a mission with a bunch of assholes who are being dickish towards me anyways, I'm taking a few of them out before I go.
Thing is, I didn't drop out. I died. Then I sat and watched the rest of the mission play out. Then as I was going back to Free roam I got an onscreen message saying I'd be kicked. Then when I logged back in I got the "bad sport" warning. I don't even know how you "kick" someone.

Rockstar stated they will not be able to restore anything lost in GTA Online even if people kept their original character profile.
"For those asking about their lost characters or rank, those will not be able to be restored so we sincerely hope that this cash stimulus we’re giving out this month will help you get back on your feet or to make your new life in Los Santos & Blaine extra sweet," Rockstar wrote in an update.

Do the police have spike strips in the game? I was being chased with 3 stars and a police SUV was parked to one side of the road with a policeman standing infront. He yelled "Go!" or something as I drove by him and I caught a brief movement out of the corner of my eye. Instantly, both my back tyres blew at the exact same time.

Cool. Thinking back, I think they were in III, VC and/or SA. Totally forgot about them.
I'm on my final warning about blowing up other players personal cars even though the player in question is a bounty. I think people are getting wise to it to. The last guy knew I had sticky bombs and hid behind his car.
I really hope the change this stupid car rule. "The girl in the Hot Pink electric car that only kills bounties is REAL bad news!"

Sent R*s Mouthoff section an email about it that's far too long and formal.
Hi, I'm sending this email as I feel you need to reconsider something about the ingame rules of GTA Online.
I play GTA Online regularly and I never, intentionally, kill other players or destroy their personalized vehicles out of malice or spite.
I do, however, kill other players if they have a bounty on their heads.
After unlocking the "sticky bomb" weapon, I tried it out on a bounty who wouldn't leave his/her personalised car. After blowing them and their car up I was told not to destroy other players personal cars or else I'd be punished. I feel this isn't right and actually takes away from the game.
Firstly, I did not know it was a personalised car as there is no indication of this, whatsoever. Secondly, if a player takes his/her personalised car out in public, surely, it is at their own risk. Thirdly, where is the logic in the fact I can, theoretically, kill a player over and over and over again without reprecussion but detroying their car (which they can regain through ingame insurance) just once gets me a warning? Finally, if we are threatened with punishment for destroying their car why are we allowed to destroy them at all? Why not just make those specific vehicles indestructable?
I say this as I believe the punishment is to be limited to playing online with other "bad players" and I'd rather not have my playing experience ruined because I went after a player with a bounty on their head, which is within the spirit of the game.
I hope you decide to correct this and remove this limiting feature. At the very least, surely, a player with a bounty on them should be fairgame, including the destruction of their car.
Thank you for taking the time to read this very long email. I have, otherwise, enjoyed GTA V and GTA Online so far.
Yours,
Toasty McSteelbuns*

There isn't a thing such as too many safehouses.
Also Kealyx can confirm, had a race last night and I got flipped over an overpass and ended up getting last place. next race I bet 500 bucks on myself and just before the end somebody I think Kalyx friend end up clipping me and him and I get sent off into the air like crazy (full speed) thankfully I was able to flip the cup upright and land between an 18 wheeler and the median and just zip to the finish line for the win.

I can pose to be a bit of a problem if anyone takes the game seriously, I like to just shoot up everything and let the game roll.
I like to run from the cops and all that the game has to offer, sometimes if convinced I will hunker down and get serious as shit.
It's fun as hell so far. played with a lot of the TPWW crew so far, and missed a few invites at launch for missions from Miotch, but now that it is fixed I will be able to accept more missions and stuff

I'm the same way. I just kinda watch the notifications to see if people are just killing each other, and then join in the fray. Running from the cops seems to be a constant, always having to run and not always sure why.

No idea how your car getting impounded works. I was killed, in my car and spawned down the street. I was sprinting to my car and it began flashing. Just as I reach it, it vanished. "Your car has been impounded". I was right there!
Also, the police attack you if you go anywhere near the impound lot. I hadn't even gotten near the gate or fence and they already wanted to gun me down.

Your car gets impounded if you die while the police are after you.
And then gets destroyed if you don't claim it from the impound.

Were you in a vehicle? The only time the cops have tried to go after me before I jumped the fence was when I drove too close in a vehicle I jacked to get there.
Yeah, I did. I'm guessing it would have been cheaper to pay the impound fee though.
There's an impound fee? It just tells you to steal it back or it'll be destroyed. I've always just stolen it back. A bitch BTW when it's a bike with no back tire.

If you play a mission and run out of lives (I think you can die twice), I think the armor is gone unless you choose to rebuy it when you try the mission again. Other than that, I dunno.
My character has a mask on and I don't know how to unequip it unless I have an apartment to change clothes, which I don't.
