Have you tried advancing the in-game clock a LONG time? Just enter/exit the save menu at your safehouse for ~ a week of in-game time(28 times). Might work
Will give it a try now but it's not looking good. Can't believe the game glitched in such a way, it obviously autosaved as the cars don't say to take them to the Epsilon garage but the last email I have is said request and I never got the follow up. To state again for anyone who might be able to help my power went off in the Epsilon mission following the car collection here you use the
alien tracker
One minor thing that's unfortunate, ambulances no longer put people into body bags. They get out, say something like "Yep, might as well get the body bag" and then get back into the ambulance and leave.

Pause menu, stats, Vehicles, scroll down and you can see your fastest vehicle and at what speed you achieved.
Yeah, this is rather silly. But I suppose it isn't a bigger issue because, as you mentioned, finding a quick way to kill your character to force the option to appear tends to be pretty easy.

he probably would've survived after a visit to the hospital, lol. i was fucking around in the game and killed Jimmy, Michael's son. i didn't get a game over screen or anything, just his body laying on the sidewalk while i continued the game.
later on, Jimmy texted me saying i would need to pay his hospital bills because he doesn't have any money.

i let him go. the therapist was right, Michael needed to start controlling himself and stop killing people left and right. all he did was take some of my money, at least he gave Michael some decent advice.
I'll be dammed if I didn't think for a solid 30 seconds that you were talking about peeing.
Is this a story spoiler?

When I was deep diving way offshore to see how far I could go I was thinking about this. As the light from the surface dimmed and I was faced with the dark and empty of deep water, I realized I would probably piss myself if some tentacled horror of an easter egg suddenly reached out of the black to snatch me down.
I think my dignity is glad nothing happened as I swam back up. Such great atmosphere underwater.
Anyone else think we need a dedicated thread for GTA V Stock Market and Trading?
Thanks for the spoiler, bye bye.

Though I would definitely consider it a spoiler, let it be known that it's really nothing major, nor is it a main story mission.

Damn, that would have been boss!
Claude would fill Trevor's role because fuck words, his ammo does the talkin'!
On another note, I played through the torture scenario and found myself become apathetic toward the character and just did the job, and enjoyed taking him to the airport afterward.
It was a very weird scene to play through. Very weird. Huh.

I'm a big fan of Vinewood Boulevard Radio, Radio Mirror Park and LSRR.
Johnny was a shadow of his former badass self, unfortunately. Trevor just put him out of his methhead misery. :/
Yep, so much fun. If you do it to someone sitting down, it will usually kill them.
It's also a great way to get over certain walls or fences that you can't climb up.
Ok thanks. Any idea if I can do some other side missions in the meantime or do I pretty much have to stay out of missions in general?

Not sure, I just slept a couple days after to see where it would stabilize. I ended up not doing any missions, but I don't know if that's a requirement.
That is one fine boost.
My game apparently does NOT want to spawn those cars..need it for the
epsilon mission

That's good info that helps me to better understand the nature of pop-in.
Yeah, I get sign posts and other small objects like that (bushes, etc.) popping in when driving really fast or just driving around constantly/steadily.
I also notice some of the windows/textures (complete with the proper light hitting them depending on the time of day) on the very large skyscrapers and other buildings kind of correcting themselves as I get closer. It's not glaring in the slightest, but the details on the large buildings don't really "fade into view" so much as they tend to pop into view sometimes. Again, this is when driving really fast at the cluster of larger buildings in the business district.
Oh, and there's also the Seahawk starting line in the canal (made available after
Franklin and Lamar's jet-ski chase with the cops
I just wish this was something the next generation of hardware could improve upon. That's the most jarring thing for me, and sort of breaks immersion a bit.
forreal... lmao right now

riding a bicycle around town reminds me of Bully as well lol.
The bass lines during Repossession and Complications are total Shawn Lee-esque.
I'm guessing it's Woody Jackson. He did Redemption's soundtrack and that game had a few tracks with Shawn Lee-like Bully bass riffs in it as well.

Oh yeah, forgot to ask: If I buy the weed shop, will I then have the ability to purchase some product from there?

Man. They have to add some durability to cars next patch. The smallest bump makes it where they won't turn. Its not fun to have to switch out cars every 30 seconds

Can somebody fill me in on something story-wise that I missed?
I just completed the
I just completed the
Blitz mission and delivered some package to a guy named Devin. Apparently he's a friend of that d-bag Steve from the FIB but I don't remember Steve ever mentioning the guy and honestly I don't even remember why I was doing the mission. I haven't played in a couple days and the last thing I did was grab all of the stuff like masks, getaway car, garbage truck, etc. but I don't remember how the mission originated or who is behind it. And why am I delivering an evelope to this Devin guy when all we stole was cash? Did Steve and Dave send me on this mission to rob an IAA truck or something?
It almost feels like I skipped part of the story or something because I don't remember anything. I played the Merryweather Heist between the time I started this Devin mission collecting all of the stuff I needed and then actually completing it so I'm lost on the story now.

This just happened: I was driving my Coquette around south Los Santos, when I saw a blue blip on the map representing a random event, in an alley.
I quickly shot both of them in the head and left the scene.
I parked the car as a lady shouted at me to help her. I got out of the car, and she told me that 'his face is all red and he's dripping blood' (something like that), and that she wanted me to follow her. Knowing that it could be a setup, I pulled my supressed pump-shotgun and followed her. As she was climbing the stairs into a building, she shouted 'he has a gun, it's a bust!', and at the same time, a guy appeared from the corner ahead and started running.
You really dont need spoiler tags for that and I was really anxiously awaiting a good ending to it. The whole tone of what you wrote seemed as if something major was gonna happen.
=(
It's probably been brought up but I found the Love Fist shirt that was shown in one of the screenshots before the game came out. There's two other neat shirts there too.
It's on Vespucci Beach at the
Store (unlocked after
). I think only Trevor can buy shirts from there as I didn't get any options as Franklin. Didn't try Michael yet.

Going by youtube others are having the issue I described above so hopefully it's resolved quickly.
Does Suburban have more undershirts for Franklin(ie to wear with the jackets)? The only one I have is white.
Edit: I find it odd that they allow you to hide the menu like in Max Payne 3 to get a better view of what's happening......or not because they cover everything in vaseline and filters and don't let you look around while doing so.
