Grand Theft Auto Series Megathread V5 - Weekly Threads

I somehow ended up with the rest of you guys, and we had a hell of a time. Train parties are the best.
Finished the game for the first time on PC. Was lucky to only crash three times, two of them on both approaches to North Yankton. Still a pretty good experience. I like the introduction of a bunch of the DLC vehicles into the general population. First person mode was great, it only bothered me when using the Carbine Rifle or when shooting from cover. Not having to rely on autoaim is a godsend. On the topic of flying I'm gonna quote Indiana Jones : "Fly, yes. Land, no."
Now onto the Side Missions (sans Epsilon, already did that) and setting up a radio station.

North Yankton works online with a trainer.
anyone got a trainer like the lingon one that doesn't make shitty sounds and actually works properly? (pressed ctrl+k cant stop flying up now)
my oracle (II) just decided to become the oracle xs. That's annoying.

I have no idea if this was in the base game or not, but I'm so fucking glad its in this game. I love this song.

That happened to mine as well. I just replaced it with a Kuruma and all is well :v:

Judging by your avatar, I can see why.
And that song is one of the reasons buying this game seemed worth it.
I just spend the entire day reinstalling GTA V because it kept crashing only to find out the trainer messed up my game save and all I had to do with delete my old save to make it work. :suicide:
So how come most of the dlc weapons are locked for me in singleplayer but are available for purchase in online?
I'm a returning player from 360 and the .50 pistol is locked for me even though I bought and own one online.
Have you guys done any FAPS event nights yet?

Whoa, how did you manage to kick the ass of two Furore GT racers in a Futo? Did they fuck up on the first turn or something?
Met some guys a few mins (or hours) ago.
We drove around with Insurgents in a pub, and someone lost a Marshall.
I need to do this more often.

What's the best way to take shots like this?
[QUOTE=iAmaNewb;47602487]Whoa, how did you manage to kick the ass of two Furore GT racers in a Futo? Did they fuck up on the first turn or something?[/QUOTE]
The course is too brutal on cars that have too much speed and not enough control (well, more so the blame is on the drivers themselves).
There are around 6-8 corners on the track that can fuck people up if they don't approach them cautiously and high powered cars are prone to smashing into the railings/trees/cliffs when they fly off the road just before the turns.
Currently 8:1 on that track now, four of those wins are in the Futo.

You can beat anyone in any car as long as you are a good enough driver. It's why the Dilletante can win races against Rhapsodies, or the Futo can win races against Furore GT (although the Furore GT is a pretty bad car.)
So I join a heist, but its prison break which I refuse to do again, so I leave it before its started, and this ends up happening:

Also, I had two interesting jackass hosts earlier. One was for the EMP Delivery which I have basically mastered. He screws it up multiple times, including one time where he drove the insurgent in before we had even taken out the one driving around inside. But we finally get it done, the mission ends, then when we are out of the match, he immediately kills the rest of us. I respawn and he tries to run me over with his armored car, but misses. So as per my rule, I put a rocket in his windshield. A bit later I join a lobby for pacific standard. Not only does this guy screw one guy by giving him 5% less than the rest of us for no reason, but I ask for the hacker role since I like it, and he tells me to take 5% if I want it. So fuck that. Then we get in, we're doing our thing, I and one of the other guys are holding the crowd down, they go down stairs and get in to the vault. He tells the other guy to not grab the second stack of money. The other guy does though, which causes him to flip out and leave his own heist. Whatever, asshole.
So I managed to clone one of my cars, the problem is I think it removed one of my old ones.

So i've had my Carbonizzare for a very long time [first thing i bought on GTAO back on the 360] and I have to say it is my favorite car to drive. It handles so well and feels good to drive. I want to try it on the drift course.
Edit: also requested to join FAPS2
Requested to join FAP 2.
If you're a low level hosting super car races on tracks that are pretty much just the highway, remember to turn off custom vehicles.

Also learn to not just ram your opponent because you're not winning.

apparently this happens when you put a vehicle in your garage that you picked up off the street. It then also replaces the personal vehicle that you had out at the time.
Right so I did not manage to really test out GTA V and I think I have the money for it now, was wondering if :
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3570K CPU @ 3.40GHz
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 660
8.2 GB RAM
Windows 7
Was wondering 1-10, how good would it run?
Low and High setting ratings would be really good. Anyone with specs like these or a bit higher/lower could give me some information?
Thanks

Was it the same for console players before the PC release? I wonder if it's an inherent shittyness of their system or if the servers are maybe still overloaded, seeing how incredibly well it sold on PC.
