There's always been a camera select has there not?

Mc Love · 17-09-2013 3:32am

I feel so overwhelmed playing this! for the last three hours have been just wandering around - went back to one of the strippers places for some hows your uncle

KwackerJack · 17-09-2013 3:44am

Flying is feckin hard :P

Graphics are superb....gonna take a long time to learn this map

mutley18 · 17-09-2013 3:47am

Anyone mess about with the gasoline cannisters yet? Great craic! I set a long line of fuel leading all the way to a petrol pump and lit it and walked off like a boss, should have took a selfie just as the whole thing went kaboom behind me! Robbed a couple of stores aswell, easy money.

I love how real the people act, I bumped into some fat chick and she fell over, she then gets up and whips out her phone and calls the police on me! So I bitch slap her to the ground and get the hell out of there before they show up!

Favourite vehicle so far is the dune buggy, police have no chance once you go off road with it!

Iceboy · 17-09-2013 7:23am

Amazing.

Celly Smunt · 17-09-2013 8:35am

Why do people keeping calling the police when I try to look through the binoculars on mount chilliad?

I have the first slim, not crashing for me at all, not yet anyway.

I really don't know what the big deal is about the car handling, nothing wrong with it at all.

I love not having a clue wher anything is on the map yet, where do I get the blimp?

edit: never mind, you have to order it on your phone, the draw distance in the air is amazing

The blimp company sets it down at the closest available place, which for me when I called them, was at the airport.

nkay1985 · 17-09-2013 10:59am

How many 24/7 or liquor stores that you can rob have people found? I've only managed one so far and I stumbled across it and can't remember exactly where it was now!

Drove around for a good while last night looking for them and couldn't find any.

Peanut Butter Jelly · 17-09-2013 11:09am

"When at home, you can relax like a real American by smoking, drinking, or watching mindless TV"

It's the little things that count.

I think I seen Walter White

:D

krudler · 17-09-2013 11:14am

Jumped out of the blimp

bluestripe93 · 17-09-2013 11:30am

I got it yesterday and played it for a couple of hours and I really like it so far, I like the driving
The new version of the BF injection is great fun to drive in the desert

How do I get a plane or helicopter? I went to the airport at the bottom of the map and couldn't find any, then to the airstrip in the desert,

Anyone else go into the military base? I drove through the gate and stole one of the big army trucks and went driving around the base with them chasing me, I saw some fighter jets and a helicopter but I got blown up by a tank before I could get into one, is that the only way to get one or are they somewhere else?

Grayditch · 17-09-2013 11:55am

It really looks and feels so much like Los Angeles.

glenjamin · 17-09-2013 11:56am

You can get a plane at the airport that's flyable. It's one of those private jets that's painted in Ryanair colours. No parachute on board.

Anyone gone hunting yet? I shot a deer then when I got back in my car I saw and heard a mountain lion or something roar at me.

I also notice they didnt do anything about the camera angle being far too low when driving. Right thumb on the thumbstick permanently again... sigh...

All in all a good effort though.. enjoying it so far.

Should be a contact as soon as you install the DLC.

Peanut Butter Jelly · 17-09-2013 1:52pm

I went home, and found out it wasn't home anymore

falan · 17-09-2013 1:53pm

Jesus this game is epic, did a story mission, went fro a short walk down the street killed my first pedestrian with my fists, picked up a hooker, did the works and got my 80 dollars back, realised i was smack bang outside a strip club and blew the lot (epic for me)...Think i had about 300 dollars...Did another mission, drove around for a bit, found grove street and now ive taken a ride into the country...Those boys are tough!!!

All this and 4 hours is gone already haha

krudler · 17-09-2013 1:53pm

Anyone ride the rollercoaster at the beach yet

Glico Man · 17-09-2013 1:53pm

Flying might take me a while to get used to. Got to know a few bridges too well if you know what I mean

SantryRed · 17-09-2013 1:58pm

I've been playing 2 hours and have already died 8 times.

First four were random countryside explosions involving me going downhill WAYYYY too fast. The other 4 whilst trying to rob a plane.

So on the 4th time lucky, I got the plane

Flew up north, entered some kind of restricted airspace, rocketlauncher, bang, dead again

falan · 17-09-2013 2:01pm

Right ive just pulled up to admire the sunset in the great outdoors in my off road pick up, this game is beautiful...My cameras coming out...

Mike Litoris · 17-09-2013 2:19pm

Only got to play for 2 hours but, man, the map feels fcuking huge!! Some of the dialogue is hilarious and already the few of missions I did are already more varied than GTA4.

At the moment the only let down for me is the dumbing down of the driving physics.

Pudsy33 · 17-09-2013 2:33pm

Is there clothes shops?

Dumbing down is an understatement...

5 hours in and it's an absolute joke. Hold accelerate + occasionally turn = reach destination. They took the learing curve away completely.

Gonna hop on it for an epic session today, but it's a disappointment to the degree I'm thinking about offloading the game at the weekend (doesn't help that it has the weakest soundtrack of the series so far to boot... ).

krudler · 17-09-2013 2:35pm

I went to the pier and just stood there watching the sun go down, its amazing looking. The missions are great so far, loved the Michael one with the Lethal Weapon 2 reference

titan18 · 17-09-2013 2:36pm

Is there any way of making the text bigger. Can barely read the stuff

Exactly how it should be tbh, I actually want to drive instead of just getting cabs everywhere like in IV, it's not a driving simulator

The text is tiny alright, I'm playing it on a big tv but if I was playing this in my room on my 21" tv I'd barely be able to read it, and the aiming reticule is tiny. I get that Rockstar wanted to keep the UI as uncluttered as possible but there's uncluttered and almost non existent. One of the only complaints I have so far tbh.

Did a google search other people are having the same issue

That renders the game barely interactive! For a game where you spend the majority of your time driving, there needs to be more depth to the controls than that.

Agree about the text and UI... it was the same for RDR and Max Payne. R* must test this stuff on 55" inch TVs that they're sat 3 feet away from.

EdenHazard · 17-09-2013 3:41pm

Eh they lied to us about 'interiors' so many things are not accessible, but I'm feeling it, normally I get a bit of a low at the start as they fail to live up the the hopes but this is good. Seems very big I can't seem to get out of the local area.

Got it today from GamesNash (Cheers Pat!)

Driving is a bit mehh, I prefered IV.

One thing I'm kinda disapoonted with is we can't hook trailers up to the tractors?

ypu can with trucks alright, havent tried it with a tractor yet

got my first 4 star wanted level there, I really recommend it, if you hold down circle on ps3 and there's a chopper chasing you then you get a really cool cinematic angle. I like that they've included music aside from the radio in the chase scenes and missions now as well, I prefer that stuff tbh I usually have the radio off.

How are people finding the multiple character thing? I quite like it, I tend to do one mission each then dick around a bit

Pudsy33 · 17-09-2013 4:32pm

The police are tough bastards! Haven't managed to escape anything above 2 stars. They are really clever in the car chases, trying to box you in.

youreadthat · 17-09-2013 4:33pm

Oh man this game is amazing.

Random security van robbery with cross country police chase (3 star) ftw. :eek::D

You need to hide or change cars. Or both. I just lost 3 stars but it involved hiding behind a warehouse. A couple of times I thought I'd lost them only for the swines to find me.

On the driving issue I've my opinion on it but the fact is that the vast majority of people seemed to want a very easy driving game with none of the weight or learning curve of IV and that is what Rockstar have delivered. I think it's shame but there's more than enough other things to take joy in that I'm not going to let that put me off.

I like that, it isn't just a case of find an open bit of road and floor it, you need to hide, change vehicles etc, it's way more challenging.

KwackerJack · 17-09-2013 4:42pm

Cops are great craic....jet ski's are pretty cool to

Driving takes a bit to get use to but is good after that. Shooting is better than GTA 4.

Oh a comet isn't the best vehicle to drop off a mountain :P

shamelessidiot · 17-09-2013 4:45pm

Just robbed some poor dudes bike on the middle of a mountain when he stopped to take a break, cycled along until I spotted some sort of rabid animal, gave it a boot up the arse and then ended up on hospital. Haven't even started the first mission yet with Simeone.

krudler · 17-09-2013 4:48pm

Didnt getting in a plane used to give you a parchute automatically? doesn't now, hilarity to be had from diving out though you fall realistically and scream the whole way down :pac:

Glico Man · 17-09-2013 4:53pm

This game is crazy, batshít crazy... I love it
