[QUOTE=Mr. Someguy;49081031]How could I forget about the Tug Boat? That thing was awesome, shame they removed it from V. I could see why though, the Tug Boat lagged the game so fucking much if you rammed it into the shore. My frames would go from 50 to 5-10 and not recover until the Tug was out of sight. There are sunken Tug Boats though, which is like I said how Rockstar sometimes references previous vehicles by including them as wrecks in the new games. I think there's one at a dock in a hanger but you can't drive it.[/QUOTE] Speaking of wrecks, when are we going to be able to drive the T-34?
Saying that I do miss the tug boat as well. Nothing's more fun then smashing the AI to bits in the water with your massive boat. Downside being given the amount of current assholes using the mod for dickish purposes I would imagine it would be like GTA 4 all over again with people spawning tug boats in all over the place just like they do with that UFO already. THIS IS WHY WE CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS. Also makes me sad that we don't get to use the andromeda either, the amount of drama in the sky would be hilarious
So I've been playing vanilla-style modded San Andreas lately, and I've been having a blast. I have a widescreen mod, remastered HUD (just higher res assets), GInput for native-like XInput functionality, various bugfixes from SilentPatch, SkyGFX for the PS2 color correction and vehicle reflections, a frame limit adjuster for steady 60 fps. Everything adds to that "san andreas that I never knew" feel. SA didn't really stick with me back in the day: I severly disliked the RPG elements and all the weird side-activities like girlfriends; and with all the technical problems it added up to a love-hate relationship with the game. Now everything is a lot more enjoyable. I really recommend people that feel burned out from GTA5 to have another look at SA
I know people hate on douchebag trucks, but I think I good a good job nailing the "Overfunded Security Contractor" look :v: [t]http://puu.sh/leGxi.jpg[/t]
I wish there was more outfit slots, I have to keep deleting the least used ones which I still use a lot on regular basis.
I wish there was more customization period. So many shirts you should be able to wear with jackets, pants with shoes, etc.
[QUOTE=SonicHitman;49082186]I wish there was more customization period. So many shirts you should be able to wear with jackets, pants with shoes, etc.[/QUOTE] APB did this the best. Half the reason people played that game was to customize a character and play them with other customized characters.
Unfortunately most of the time it fell into the saints row "lol look at me im so random" trap and that's most of what you'd see. People in neon green and pink, people in their underwear, people who don't know how to express themselves other than being eyesores, or they're so desperate for attention they reach for outright absurdism to stand out as much as they can. I'm not saying creativity or the ability to express oneself is bad, it's just... People with no creativity (and no sense of humor) sour it heavily for everyone else whenever that much flexibility is on offer.

People with no creativity (and no sense of humor) sour it heavily for everyone else whenever that much flexibility is on offer.[/QUOTE] My relation to this is unreal, GTA gave out a lot of options for customisation anyway and I agree with the fact that 80% of players don't even bother to put in an effort is quite sad to say seein as the guys at rockstar put a lot of thought into pretty much every single style and dress sense to suit mostly everyone. APB was an amazing game for customisation and I couldn't put that game down for like the first two years haha.
It would be great if GTA had a system like Saint's Row 2 where you just pick based on Undershirts, Overshirts, Coats and so on The way it works right now is just too weird
The only thing I'd want from SR is the ability to choose a voice for your character, which they use to interact with other characters in cutscenes. Like, six presets per gender with twelve pitch settings. That would be fine.

Just rumors really.
Do people still do hacked money? For first time I'm actually wanting some

The reason for the website being down, NTA got annoyed at everyone repeating the same issues the whole time, and /u/qaisjp's false statements in regard to the project. The project is still being worked on, yes. We've actually fixed all DRM crashes fairly recently, and now all that's left is scripting. You can always hang around with us on IRC and you'll see preview pics and know what's going on.[/QUOTE] [URL="https://www.reddit.com/r/GrandTheftAutoV_PC/comments/3opr23/im_an_occasional_fivem_developer_and_an_inside/cvzc13n"]FiveM forum admin and contributing dev, on Reddit[/URL] Stop repeating rumours that have already been debunked more than a week ago ffs.

[QUOTE=mark6789;49086132]Do people still do hacked money? For first time I'm actually wanting some[/QUOTE] I've gotten loads of money from random hackers just dropping them. I'm kinda reliant on them now cause I know at some point another hacker will come in and just start dropping money everywhere.
FYI, all legal action is now being done by Take-Two (Rockstar's parent company), not Rockstar itself. Some of it is even being done without Rockstar's knowledge or input.

Anyone here do it?
[QUOTE=mark6789;49086609]Yeah today a hacker gave everyone free weapons then left. Anyone here do it?[/QUOTE] That sounds absolutely horrible, I have too many weapons as it is.
Do you reckon there will ever be a reliable purchase point for molotovs? They're the funniest throwable to use It's dead you have to call merryweather for them and kinda funny that you have to call a private security firm to deliver possibly the most primitive improvised explosive going when you can buy hand grenades, remote and proximity explosives from a gun shop. It'd be interesting if you could make them from bottles of beer and petrol in your inventory. Crafting lol
[QUOTE=Mr. Someguy;49086708]That sounds absolutely horrible, I have too many weapons as it is.[/QUOTE] Meh minigun and rockets is fun lol.
IMO the jerry can is still the funniest weapon in the game. Slather the back of someone's car while they're afk, and the moment they start accelerating, their exhaust flare will ignite it and engulf their car in flames. In my experience, you only get blamed for this if you're within draw distance of them when it ruins their car, and even that's only sometimes. Sometimes it blames THEM.
[QUOTE=mark6789;49087111]Meh minigun and rockets is fun lol.[/QUOTE] Yeah but cycling through 6 pistols and 3 grenades to reach the one you want, isn't fun.
[QUOTE=Mr. Someguy;49086708]That sounds absolutely horrible, I have too many weapons as it is.[/QUOTE] they go away once you reconnect anyway

Never can be sure if it's the same guy or a lot of people really really like him. Shame there isn't some sort of batman DLC so you can go around fighting each other, that would be funny to watch
