[QUOTE=Exploders;50907715]Jfc, I just reached the buzzard part in Ballad of Gay Tony and I can't imagine how I piloted the helicopters before GTA 5 game out. I crashed it several times.[/QUOTE]I was a fantastic pilot in GTA 4. So when it came time for GTA 5 I was unstoppable in the sky. That transferred to cars as well in the air, and even on keyboard when it hit PC.
I played a ton of Battlefield Vietnam back in the day and the chopper controls were basically the same as GTA5 so I wreck shit. Barnstorming 24/7. But I live in rural Iowa so to my crew mates it's a terrifying hell-ride crashing into everything and anything as I lag my way through the skies. The one benefit of being a living avatar of lag is that sometimes when you crash a car you send it flying as if it's been hit by a bullet train.
i like to fly the buzzard under all the tiny little overpasses on the highways.
I was doing Series A - Coke with some randoms, and some asshole kicked me out of the helicopter and flew off without me. I dumped gasoline all over his car, and lit it with my exhaust pipe so I wouldn't get charged for the insurance. They ended up dying anyway, and I left. That was both satisfying and infuriating at the same time.
I pull crazy stunts with helicopters and planes using keyboard controls all the time. One of my friends put it very nicely before: "If it has wings, Robin has landed it on the maze bank building before."

[QUOTE=Exploders;50908963]What about the massive Cargoplane.[/QUOTE]The Titan is the easiest one to land on top of the Maze bank, mostly because it's slow as dicks so no worries about accidentally flying off from the other side as with other planes. [editline]18th August 2016[/editline] source: basically landed every plane on the dumb building as a challenge a few times even the Lazer.

The problem with the Titan is that it slows down really slowly, so you have to commit early. I find the besra is the easiest to land on there. It's super easy to slow it down and if you fuck it up, the thing will just accelerate out of there like nobodies buisness. I haven't landed the cargo plane yet because I don't really play singleplayer much anymore. My normal deceleration strategy wouldn't work with it anyway, as there isn't enough space for it.
[QUOTE=Exploders;50909002]Not the Titan, the plane you crash into as Trevor during one of his missions.[/QUOTE]o right, I never actually tried it since I do stuff in multiplayer mostly and I'm on Xbone, so I can really only fly the commercial airliners.
So I was on top of a crane and just looking around for stuff to snipe, then I see the guys car and shot at it. [t]http://i.imgur.com/gMATzZx.jpg[/t] Turns out I killed him. I didn't think the game would let me do that. [t]http://i.imgur.com/UuHvsW7.jpg[/t] It was kinda far away but close enough for stuff to still render in my view.

[QUOTE=nomad1;50909816]Do you want some help? Maybe organize something on the weekend?[/QUOTE] Oh, I got it done eventually. Plus, I'm on PS4, so there's that.

Ugh, stunt races have gone to shit. They used to be fun, but now people are just parking their cars in the middle of the track trying to troll. No non-contact option was such a great idea :goodjob:

No non-contact option was such a great idea :goodjob:[/QUOTE] TBH stunt races were always kinda shit, GTA5 has terrible netcode ill-suited for racing. The physics sometimes will wonk out or you'll hit a piece of invisible geometry and go out of control. Not to mention the camera is just plane awful. That's not to say they can't be fun, because they certainly can, but every time I played a stunt race it just reminded me of trackmania, and how much better trackmania is.
Anyone have any ideas what might be causing this? At first I figured it was GPU related but it's also casting shadows. [t]http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/263845380497435350/751E8D04EA81CB4686A3029167263358DE5CA8E5/[/t]

If so, this can sometimes happen with bad car models and I'd assume any kind of models. It used to happen to me a lot in IV and would also ruin the framerate. If your game is modded like I suspected, try disabling recent ones.
Validate and repair game cache as well, if you're running the Steam version. If not, temporarily rename a key game file to force the game to update, which will detect and fix any corrupted files.

I tried replicating the issue after a game restart but have yet to experience it again.
So on a whim I acquired a Gauntlet. Not the racecar, just the regular one. [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/XAhFzM7.jpg[/IMG] Actually not a bad car at all, for just freemode anyway. Handles exactly like you'd think classic muscle would but with more power, yet not so much that it can't control itself like the Dominator. Would be nice if you could customize it more, a spoiler in particular would help a lot. Surprisingly the fog lights work too, which is more than I can say about most cars in the game that annoyingly have fake fogs.
I was doing some deliveries and after I completed a sale this one level 30 guy sent the mercs after me. The mercs didn't kill me but I felt so mad, I got into my hydra and destroyed that guy. I killed him like 10 times and then destroyed his cargo. I hate when people think I'm an asshole just because I'm rich. Almost everyone who plays with me knows that I never attack anyone unless they try to hurt me or attack me first.
