[kazebyaka]

From what I was about to post in the old topic, lol.



Not really true, I've come across two different barbers, one is cheap looking and the other is more up market. They offer partly the same beards and haircuts but both have some slightly different and new ones.

Not for Trevor, he has three haircuts and a beard, that's all he can get anywhere. I didn't check every single barber, but quite a few .

"Sorry! This thread is closed"

WHAT

oh, right...

 

[RagnarokX]

LOL.

I was just doing a paparazzi mission which started with Franklin and Beverly walking down a sidewalk when a random bus decided to make a 3 point turn, crashing into oncoming traffic and the sidewalk, killing Beverly as he stood there and ending the mission

 

[CouchMaster]

Wow, at this rate we'll get LTTPs by next week.

 

[Dick Justice]

Do the various companies on the stock market actually go up or down in value, other than after Lester's assassination missions?

 

[Truant]

Anyone else have saving issues? I just lost a bunch of progress. I saved my game (quick save) after I did the first mission with the final character you unlock, and now I'm back to before the first heist.

What the fuck? Can't find my save game anywhere.

 

[Teknoman]

Where is the stamina indicator again?

 

[ThirtyPlus]

I can't remember how, but isn't there a way to suspend mission progress on your phone?

 

[789shadow]

Loving this game.

 

[RS4-]

There are a few differences in the higher end part of town barbershops vs the ones in the lower end.

Oh fuck really, lol.

Just when I was feeling miserable that there were only a few beard styles and such.

 

[AlimNassor]

I'm in fucking love. Shame RS cant fix the fucking gunplay...

 

[AlexMogil]

Every time I play as Franklin, I have a great time. His lines and delivery are hilarious and when he starts arguing with Lamar I can hardly keep up.

The game is really charming and worth the wait.

 

[The Grim Heaper]

Wait... what? The first mission where you play as

Spoiler

Trevor

,

Spoiler

Johnny shows up for some reason and is immediately killed?

 

[BloodMoney]

Install complete. I hope this game is as good as you guys are saying.

It's a really good game... but its pretty familiar in my opinion.

"Game of the Year", "Best Game Ever"... not in my opinion.
Very fun, polished, & expansive sandbox... absolutely.

*edit: will it be my most played game of the year? most likely.

 

[waypoetic]

So, about those big ass jets

Spoiler

can i fly 'em?

 

[Kuusoge]

Is there a way to take pictures without having to access the social club? I can't do these

Spoiler

Beverly celebrity

missions because the social club is always down.

 

[duckroll]

Whats with the "Rockstar game services" being unavailable so frequently? Every time I find a cool spot to snap a picture, I can never upload... Servers being hammered or something?

Yeah the game is selling so well it looks like Rockstar is effectively DDoSing themselves. This is probably the real reason why GTA Online is not available at launch. Even with a 2 week delay, I have a feeling we're going to have a tough time actually playing it when it launches. Lol.

 

[jet1911]

I'm in fucking love. Shame RS cant fix the fucking gunplay...

I dont' see what's wrong with it.

 

[BigWeather]

Dumb question likely, but... What is the little white number in a gray circle over the character portraits when you go to switch?

 

[BloodMoney]

Oh fuck really, lol.

Just when I was feeling miserable that there were only a few beard styles and such.

Yea man, last night i had one of the high end stylist give Micheal a bitching 80'esq mullet.

 

[ViewtifulJC]

You're fooling yourself if you think you'll be playing GTA Online on Oct.1st.

 

[DukeBobby]

Yeah, OT2!!

Sadly, I don't think I'll post as much as I did in the other one.

Ain't got no time for GAF!!

 

[Certinty]

Dumb question likely, but... What is the little white number in a gray circle over the character portraits when you go to switch?

How many missions are available for that character.

 

[The perfect Dark]

There are a few differences in the higher end part of town barbershops vs the ones in the lower end.

Really? I've done 34 missions so far and still only 3-4 different types of haircuts for Trevor or Michael.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Danny T is the voice. Interesting.

 

[antitrop]

Dumb question likely, but... What is the little white number in a gray circle over the character portraits when you go to switch?

The number of available missions.

 

[TheContact]

Wow even the SON looks like the voice actor. They definitely worked around them that way

 

[Dave_6]

To those asking about walking, I read that it took someone about 3+ hours to walk around the world. Not sure I saw that on GAF or GTAF

It was someone on here.

I climbed to the top of this giant crane at a construction site and it's pretty awesome how far the draw distance is on these ancient consoles. It was somewhat faint and barely there but I could see the big Ferris wheel all the way at the western-most part of the city (it's an icon on the map if you want to see for yourself. I think you can even ride it!).

Yep the ferris wheel is rideable. (rode it last night lol)

 

[Derrick01]

A bulldozer may be a poor escape vehicle after robbing a gas station but it is a hilarious one. The cops try to ram into you and block you like you're in a normal car so I kept raising the thing up and flipping them out of my way :lol

 

[Bitmap Frogs]

Ok, I have a question...

I boosted a nice car, modded it, then put it inside's franklin's garage.

Now after a mission is gone and i've got again the white starter car at the misson's end point.

What's going on? How do I "set" a car as my new default?

 

[Quick Mustard]

Non story related but still potentially spoiler to some question:

Spoiler

Can I do bike rides without needing to do a Triathalon or are they only included in that?

 

[Dennis]

We can't stop and we won't stop

 

[CorrisD]

Not for Trevor, he has three haircuts and a beard, that's all he can get anywhere. I didn't check every single barber, but quite a few .

If you go into the "bob mulet" barbers there is another hair cut and two more beard choices, Michael and Franklin too have some extra choices past the cheaper barbers.

 

[BigWeather]

How many missions are available for that character.

Oh, awesome, thanks!

 

[MCN]

You can buy one online, and go wherever you want on it.

 

[kris.]

Only 2 more hours til I can go home and play again!!

 

[DukeBobby]

I don't bother keeping cars and upgrading them.

Any random car off the street is good enough for me.

 

[Matt_]

Does anyone know if you can fix Michael's family? Like return them to some sort of normality

I keep trying to hangout with them all and kinda see some improvement but I don't know whether it will matter in the end

 

[Juicy Bob]

I am rather enjoying the experience of playing this game so far.

 

[Deleted member 1235]

Being that a new thread got triggered, I'll ask again if anyone can explain to ,e what exactly occurs to meet Michael and how far in that would be great, I think my save/sequence is bugged and can't find anything to do.

 

[Courage]

Merriweather heist was a lot

Spoiler

like Metal Gear.

 

[duckroll]

The spoilers thread that's linked is locked.

Fixed.

 

[BloodMoney]

Only 2 more hours til I can go home and play again!!

i'm feeling that east coast work day as well.

 

[Woo-Fu]

Instead of Michael I keep seeing Jack Tretton. Makes it more entertaining.

 

[sappyday]

Yea I'm very disappointed how very little haircut options Michael and Trevor have. Franklin has a lot more in comparison but most of them are terrible.

 

[Deified Data]

Quickest transition from OT to OT2 in GAF history?

 

[Mooreberg]

The first hour was kind of slow, but once the character switching kicks in, the game becomes a blast. Michael's son sounds like Jonah Hill.

 

[Tawpgun]

You're fooling yourself if you think you'll be playing GTA Online on Oct.1st.

Why you think servers will collapse?

 

[alr1ght]

Father & son!

Little Pete!
