Alright....

I made CMPUNKED Commish. He has same admin rights I do as he can recruit, kick, promote and demote anyone except me. He is the mod here so been around for a while and he is on xbox so I guess he is king of the xbox crew.

I will keep the Lieutenant rank for high scoring players so will check the crew score after Online goes live.

Since it's just a laugh and I really have no interest in Modding an online crew (just set it up for the laugh) I will make a few people Representatives. If you want it, post it in the GTA Crews thread. Keep any Crew talk there as this thread will become mental again with a new trailer today.

It's not out until October and I don't know how many of the 123 members will be even playing online so won't action it much until then.

I was really waiting to be offered the Cheeseburgers! You're Hired!!

Now back on topic, It's a bit weird with the soundtrack leak and the official rolling stones preview on the soundtrack, there is still no mention of Kavinsky. I wonder will Nightcall be the song to accompany the trailer today (that will also be used for ad's and will be shown during Breaking Bad Sunday night). It might be to close to Drive but would still be class.

If a store has 400 pre-orders, and only 300 copies of a game, the first 300 will get them. They won't wait for the next 100 to come in before the first 300 go out.

But surely the whole point of the pre-order was to guarantee your copy? And if they have taken more pre-orders than they have copies of the game on the shelf then surely preference should be the order in which pre-orders were taken (like it is with the consoles themselves) rather than those who can get there at midnight being first choice.

It should be but i have experienced this. A few years ago I think it was with Gears of War 1 or 2 I preorded gave a tenner, the day it was released i was in the UK for work and I didnt get a chance to go to the shop until 2 days after release my copy was gone, even though I had a deposit I was livid, didnt get me anywhere and I have not Pre-ordered a game since until GTAV.

I think thats part of the reason its a preorder rather than just an order, you know if I go into a garage I order a new car, I dont preorder it, similar from when you used to order books at the bookshop, anyway I am going OT, thats a discussion for another thread.

There's your problem. Go in on the day and you'll get one no bother unless you live in the middle of nowhere.

I have a feeling it's going to be a lot more story focussed than the previous trailers.

^^^^ Agreed, we don't really have too much of a back story at all for these three characters and how they are going to link up together, I highly doubt they are old school friends for example. So does the game start with them already as an established stick up crew, or do you develop that through the early story missions? I cannot fricking wait for this game, its like Christmas.

It's definitely the TV ad alright.

In a tweet from R* last night, they said it would be online today at 4pm and debut on TV during this Sunday's new episode of Breaking Bad

American TV that is!

No news stations, just tells you more about the scale of a job it was and links a Rolling Stone article where you can get a few one minute snippets of 3 of the music radio stations with no news in them, this is a official Rockstar article so they are hardly gonna spoil anything.

It'll probably be a short trailer as it's intended for TV, not much more than a minute I'd say.

I just hope they choose good music...

They couldn't have picked a better tv show to air it either.
