I was wondering the same thing. I liked trying to find all the vehicles on the list. I've had a look for some sort of vehicle collection mission but can't find anything online. Anyone confirm?
So played a few hours, since the positive lists is just too much for me to mention, I will stick with the few negatives I have:
1: The plane camera SUCKS ( as in how when you rotate, the camera also rotates too) I hate that.
2: My biggest fear sadly came true, the driving physics are worse than IV ( expected, BUT not that bad thankfully).
V has a few things with vehicle controls that I hate, such as the analog sticks have a bit of deadzone ( meaning the cars are a little more twitchy, to make small adjustments you have to move the sticks more to the sides, something IV didn't suffer from and games like SR and SD do).
Car acceleration is a little harder to manage ( like the car only starts to move when you have pressed 80% down on the triggers, which makes slower movements less possible, unlike IV were you had much greater control)
Cars break too effectively,
the 0 suspension ( well, almost) makes the cars feel too light and sporty. It basically just a downgrade in my view sadly. Off roading isn't as fun as in IV ( by iv offroading, I mean driving on grass)
IV driving was based around cursing and slower speeds BUT with the ability to drive fast/ corner fast if you were good at it, V is about high speeds and quick turning mainly.
3: Desert area is too small
4: random events so far aren't as common as RDR, which was near perfect and made just going around the map more fun.
Asides from those issues, the game is pretty damn incredible
When you are
loved it.
Also, is it possible to AIM while driving like in IV? In V it seems you can only shoot when you aim your gun while driving.

When you are
following the MC van as Trevor ( even though I have only done that 1 missions, already my favourite), that whole location and road is just amazing, also RIP Jonny

You need to learn how to mark spoilers.
"Cameo character was surprising, don't highlight if you don't want to spoil it"
Would have worked so much better than just black bars

Guys a question about the aiming.
Is the game built around the auto aim shooting? Will turning off the auto aim make the game frustratingly difficult?

The websites and fake social media are gold.
Kind of, since the amount of enemies can get overwhelming and cover can be sparse. Assisted aiming is recommended.

Okay thanks. Which setting do you use? Traditional GTA or Soft lock?

Use the internet. There is a site on there under travel maybe. You can browse and buy bikes, cars, property and a few other things right from your phone. CRAZY!
You will get a text message when you buy something and it will be delivered to your garage.

It only took me until the first Michael mission to realize free aim is broken.

Started playing this last night and have a few questions...
Are the R3 missions (vigilante / ambulance / taxi / firetruck /dust van / ice cream truck) gone?
Are there any hidden packages? If there are, do you get weapons at your safehouse for getting them?
Weapon / Armour drops?
Any mini-games start for getting on a specific vehicle (like the checkpoint missions in previous games?
I'm at work so can't spend all day on here checking the whole thread :-(
Thanks.

Soft lock.
I feel like that's offset by the wanted level system lasting 17 hours in this game. I can't believe how long it takes to get rid of a single star.

I had a revelation last night
Ive put about 10 hours into the game and was scratching my head why I had yet to really grasp the city layout, recognize roads, know where I was going, etc. In real life I am the type of person who knows where Im going. If I drive somewhere once, boom, I can get there again without directions. To this day I still use printed road maps to get an overview and understanding of where Im going .
THE GPS navigation option in GTAV is the devil. For 10 hours of gameplay Ive simply been following it to the various destinations the story has taken me (instead of looking at the game map and paying attention to where I am driving). Fortunately the GPS can be turned off. Surprise, Surprise, the second I disabled it I started to look where I was going. About 30 minutes later I had a good understanding of the city layout and recognized landmarks relative to thing like my house, garages, favorite routes, etc.
If you are struggling with wrapping you head around the game world I strongly recommend turning of the GPS.

In my experience it varies, if I go undergound I can lose them much quicker.

Man. I'm not feeling his game much. It has a great skybox, weather effects, ocean, time of day but I just feel bored playing it. No way a 10. It still has good moments though.
Oh yeah and seeing the city at night from the mountains looks so good. No game has done it as well as this game.

haven't interviewed at tech startup companies and what not... that life invader mission is too real to be satire. *shrudder*
So has anyone ever got the ifruit app thing to work? I swear I saw my pimped out car at franklin's house with the custom license plate for 1 minute before i walked into the story mission by accident and it disappeared
How does car storing/retrieval work in this? There is the garage of the house, which i assume works like other gta. There are public garages? (don't know why franklin had a GTR looking car there already).
How do i get back owned cars? Is the impound lot the only way? That's like... across from town >.>"
Why can't i just call someone to bring it back like sleeping dogs

Can you restart or cancel races? I fucked up on the first one. I also can't find the dude on the map. :/ Is the race only at a specific time of dat?
Bitmap Frogs
Mr. Community
They really need to fix this shit.
You have to wait for the race to end, but then you can retry. I think the races are only at night.
He's all the way at the bottom
There are Taxi missions. Simply steal one and you can accept requests. There are also
towing missions with Franklin, Weapon smuggling via car or plane. I didn't find any other types yet
Afaik there are hidden packages.
with money - you always keep your weapons - you just lose ammunition after getting arrested

I think you have to have weapon selected and be on foot, then click both of the sticks in.

Your kidding right? You can be rid of all heat in less than 30 seconds. How the cars now handle makes dodging police a breeze.

There are definitely fewer so far from what I've seen, but I also thought that the police presence was too much in GTA IV... Maybe it was by choice, that New York has this much larger police presence, but in GTAIV nine times out of ten when you walked down the street to jack a car, you'd get police heat on you. In IV, if you accidentally discharged your gun (something I do a lot when first playing), you'd get police heat. In V that just isn't the case, and I'm thankful for it.
I just stole a car in the desert and got heat :/

Thanks. Gotta use Francklin's ability more in races.

I love the integration this game has with friends and such. "p3tran has been wasted 50 times" made me laugh.
I really like that type of connectivity. It was really well done in Forza and Shadow Complex IMO.
EDIT: Is there a way to see what TOTAL time you've spend in the game, kills, etc ... ?
EDIT2: Found it on the social site, but is there one in-game?

Hmm sounds like I'd like this, but how do you find the locations of the missions? Just look in the map on the pause screen? I hate that map, takes too long to load.
And another question, when do the special meters kick in? I had to use it in the beginning with Michael I think, but after that never...

Thanks for that.

It would be awesome if they add SF and Vegas to the game as DC. But then again its an island now... so don't know how that would work.

The plane camera is flawless man, it handles very similarly to ace combat. I get that it might not be your preference but give it some time to get used to it and you'll understand how much control you have over your plane this way.
You have to rotate and pull up to turn, gotta learn to fly like a real pilot.
