Thought it would be awesome to post this.

When I get wasted with Trevor i get clocked for $5000, where for Mike and Franklin around $800.

Hospital costs scale with how much money they have. Michael and Franklin will be paying $5000 too in no time.

Trevor probably has more cash which results in a higher hospital cost.

So how do you get the mini sub to the water? Do you have to use the cargo bob?

 

[AusRoachman]

Btw what is everyone's most random vehicle? For me so far it's been a golf car way out in the desert towns.

Also how does you get the blimp to land, I call it but I never see it show up or any icons on the map?

 

[The Illiterati]

Any idea how you are "meant" to find the targets for Trevor's Bail Bonds missions? I found the first one because the pic and description were enough but the second is pretty vague. I spent 20 min scanning my real life map for a similar shape of roads and must've missed it, and the pic seems to fuzzy to make out any distinctive landmarks. I also tried searching for the guy's name on the in game web. I don't want a spoiler as to where he is, I just wonder if there's any other methods of narrowing these things down I'm not understanding.

 

[Count of Monte Sawed-Off]

Just finished it. Great game. I had issues with a few things,like parts of the story, but still was one hell of an experience and maybe my favorite GTA.

Yeah there's a button to press just in front of where it's hanging (if you're facing the sub, it's behind you). Press it and it will fall into the water.

Spent a lot of time with a cement truck today.

but it's on land does it just automatically go into water or you have to carry it with the chopper to the water the release it, get out of the chopper and into the sub?

Hm. You lost me. Are you talking about the

heist prep mission with Trevor?

I'm thinking maybe you're not which case I have no idea, lol. If you are talking about that, you just need to

Spoiler

get on the boat, knock out or kill the one guard, and there's little green dot on the map, and that's the button to press.

Sorry if we're not talking about the same thing.

No story spoilers below but I'll put it in tags anyway.

Spoiler

The credits were almost 36 minutes long. That has to be a record lol.

 

[kittens]

I just thought of something: if this game is eventually released on PS4, we'll be able to record and share up to fifteen minutes of game footage at a time. That would be so fucking cool. Not to mention streaming.

 

[GlamFM]

Does anyone know what stuff does or doesn't count towards 100%?

In the in-game 100% tracker it doesn't seem like much is being counted towards completion but I think that might be because a LOT of stuff is lumped into hobbies? I think the tracker is left intentionally vague to not spoil what activities there are.

I've done 4 offroad races, and I'm thinking (or at least I'm hoping) that completing all of them will tick off one of the 60+ hobbies, for example.

Likewise, I think there's a lot more than ~20 Strangers and Freaks missions, but many of them are actually chains of missions, and they don't count towards completion until they're all done? I've completed 7 S&F missions but only 2 are listed in my 100% tracker, for example.

If anyone has any more details I would appreciate it

Go to the social-club site.
Everything it precisely listed there.

 

[White Man]

Does only Franklin get the racing Freaks sidequests? I'd like to avoid those.

Similarly, is there a way to quit missions without dying and quitting or failing and quitting? I hate getting stuck in something I'm not interested in at the moment.

I wonder if anybody out there has been able to sit through it all, I made it about 10 minutes.

 

[Flek]

uh shooting while driving is strange why cant i aim before he starts shooting?

Spoiler

I have a capture card so I just had it in a window using the capture software while I browsed the internet. You didn't miss anything I don't think. It was just credits & various scenic shots for ~36 minutes.

 

[Rizsparky]

uh shooting while driving is strange why cant i aim before he starts shooting?

Same as GTA IV, one of my major gripes with the game..

 

[Vitor711]

uh shooting while driving is strange why cant i aim before he starts shooting?

Yeah, even when I took control of a second character in the same vehicle, it started shooting as soon as I aimed, despite the tutorial telling me to use 2 different buttons for aiming and shooting. What's up with that?

 

[terrible]

Yeah I can't really figure out why they don't just let us free aim with the right stick at the press of a button or something.

 

[Ferrio]

I thought parking a car in a garage saves it? Or do you lose it if you leave it somewhere after that?

 

[Double D]

Are we sure bawsaq is online? Because there are stocks only on bawsaq that are tied to

Spoiler

the assassination missions

given by L

ester

. I just played through several of them. And because you can't switch characters mid mission, I totally cheated and looked at what's effected before I started and bought stock with all three characters.


Edit - it's also 4 am and have to wake up in 3 hours. What am I even doing.

I've had cars disappear from my garage so I don't even know how to save cars at all at this point lol. If you leave a car somewhere outside of a garage or whatever it's supposed to show up at the impound lot but good luck getting that to work. I've had ATVs and random stuff appear there instead of an Adder. Sucks.

I did that with something too and

made a solid ~30% profit. That was before I heard that it's affected by online stuff rather than in-game stuff. Maybe I just got lucky?

 

[LabouredSubterfuge]

I wish there was something that explained the garage situation properly. I don't want to put money into cars if they're going to disappear.

 

[woodsey1982]

If this game had a replay feature it would be amazing.

Only just unlocked the third character, don't want to do the missions - too much fun just driving round and exploring!!

 

[Double D]

I'd like to think the explanation is that it's totally fucked right now and will be patched.

If I ever met the Trevor VA in real life I would probably be legitimately scared.

 

[VE3TRO]

Anyone tell me where I can get the Green Bandanna for Franklin? I've checked all the shops and can't see it anywhere.

 

[NullPointer]

I'd like to know this too.

Got an invite to another game just as I started a mission and couldn't find a way to exit out and keep my progress. You can't quick-save during a mission and I couldn't find any other options to abort or quit.

I see.

Do we still have vigilante/ambulance missions too? Cop cars doesn't activate.

The mission with Trevor in which you need to burn down the Meth Lab of the O'Neills, it was very hard to kill all those dudes for me, but when I finally did nothing happened. The annoying mission theme played on and I could not see what I needed to do still. The green dot on the map brings you to the living room of the house but nothing is there. It took me 30 minutes to finally find goddamn stairs to the basement in which a jerrycan is placed which you need to use.... Couldn't R* make it a bit clearer on what to do here?

 

[brokenbeans]

Heard that Logger beer got bought out for a heck of a lot money, so I purchased 50k worth of stock and it's rising nicely.

You don't even have to step onto the boat.

I shot the cables with a sniper rifle and the sub fell into the water.

Trever had me laughing again this morning.

Spoiler

He was taking a dump behind the dumpster, to the disgust of Mike, at the intro of the torture mission.

They do. There is always an arrow on the dot indicating if you have to go up or down.
Pay attention - don´t blame R*.

 

[Krappadizzle]

Yup.




I didn't have any issues. I don't explicitly remember the exact details, but doesn't it tell you exactly what to do? Or maybe Trevor says it to himself.

146% profit on some stocks I bought. Woo. Now have lots of money.

Man, I'm a bit disappointed by Trevor. Everybody hyped him up and all... He's fun but that's it.
I prefer Micheal.

 

[wizzbang]

I think I "broke" a Barry mission (Sit in at the City Hall to get high?)
Franklin turns up, calls Barry, says oh shit I'll be there soon - that's hte last I've heard of him?

 

[Robot Pants]

So a few things need to be tweaked with this game

• 
  Helicopter controls - I've gotten more used to them but man they are way too sensitive. Gta4 had it right.

• Gotta lower the time it takes to lose stars. - DEAR GOD. At 1 and 2 stars lower it majorly. Keep it for 3 and above.

• Saving your custom cars bug - fix plz

Same thing happened to me. The Social Club indicates that I have completed the mission.
I guess that really was all there was to it.
