    I don't think you can. You detach a trailer from a truck alright.


    Not being able to drive the trains is a bit of a disappointment for me.

    You can hook up some of them,. Look at the front as some have a red bar with a lock.

    I actually found a tractor with a small plow attached on the beach, It was possible to unhitch it and then hitch it again.

    Haven't really interacted with trains much yet, but that breaks my heart!

    Derailing them was a joy in SA :pac:

    Might sound like a silly gripe. But it annoys me that if you kick and stamp someone to death, they don't bleed.
    In fact, even if you stab someone, they don't bleed on the ground either.

    Was under the impression you could do heists outside of the story , hard to find stores to rob/ transit vans , no banks to walk in a rob or anything

    Thats my only gripe, finished the story and wish there was more I could rob/heist


    Loved the stealth at the start but it kinda disappeared in my opinion, wish there was more challenging stealth in it, however the story is fantastic and the gameplay is great so absolutely no problems with it it.

    You can actually rob stores like barbers and ammunations. When your walking out the door about halfway out it open your weapon wheel and then aim at the shop assistant. Kill them then go into the shop and shoot the cash register. It's a bit awkward alright do.

    You can rob liquor stores and 24/7s far easier and by design... I agree however that nothing compares to a proper heist, great missions to do.

    As far as I can see (so far, anyway), you can put a trailer on anything with a tow bar.

    I came across a jeep towing a trailer with a boat on it last night. Stole the jeep and detached the trailer, and then re-attached it again (just to see if I could).

    Then I went to a lake, and reversed the trailer into the water, and the boat floated up off it. Then I went for a little spin around in my boat.

    I was actually surprised that the boat was a vehicle. I was expecting the trailer and boat to be all one solid piece (ie; that you can't interact with or such). I was surprised when the boat came off the back of the trailer in the water and began floating away. A very nice touch.


    Will have to see if I can do anything of worth or fun with a car transporter truck now. Would be great if you could raise/lower the ramp on the back of it (to store cars or just use as a DIY ramp whenever you want).

    When you get out of that vehicle you'd searched for hours to find in order to pick up some unwanted dollars beside a napping pedestrian.
    Turn your back for 5 seconds. *POOF!* vehicle vanished into thin air.
    I found this happens all too often.
    Despawning like nobody's bidness.

    The police never bust. I was at the walking along and a car bumped into an officer and he blew the motorist brains out as she ran away.

    You cant pull a gun out in a store easily. You can however pull it when leaving. The funniest Ive found is in ammunation is to drive a motorcycle in then out.
    The cashier pulls the gun and if you call the cops they actually have a mini shoot out

    If the police are chasing you and if you drive like a madman you cant get away. I've literally weaved in and out against highway traffic, going through small gaps and they'll still nudge you unless you constantly do rear view then they crash further back, they are unstoppable unless you are in a sports car on the highway.

    Hijacking a car is stupid. If you stand in front of it and aim they'll run you over but if the are travelling 30mph and you press Y as they pass they will stop and let you hijack them.

    Asl when you are on the run the women on the cop radio will announce your car. Even if you drive for for a few minutes with no cops into the desert, hijack another car, kill the occupants and head back to the city they will still recognise you.

    Shooting dot is tiny and unpredictable at best :mad:

    If you park it legitimately they don't despawn!

    Edit - if you "own" the car it should go back to the impound.

    The majority of the stuff mentioned I don't have an issue with.

    I love the weapon the wheel, it was one of the things I really wanted.

    Haven't found the aiming too bad either. A little tricky, but nothing major.

    I haven't been busted in a GTA game in years. Always go out in a blaze of gunfire :pac:

    I was near the end of a mission earlier [you have to land a plane at the end, using Trevor] - And something came up, i had to pause the game for a while - I had failed the landing a couple of times, so had it paused just as you come towards the land strip. When I came back to the game and un-paused it, a message came up, not thinking I hit A to carry on, and the mission had vanished! It must have asked did I want to end the mission or something?

    That is a major gripe for me, the messages that pop-up [like when you're hammering along in a fast car] are hard to read, so you end up crashing while trying to half the time! And they go away too quick. You should be able to pause, read the pop up, then carry on.

    And I'm playing on a 40" - with no eyesight issues ...

    I think if you fail a specific portion of a mission three times it'll give you the option to skip it; I have a feeling that this is what happened here, although I don't know why pausing it would've failed you.

    You can read all the messages and dialogue from the Brief section in the pause menu. Usually once you fail a mission a few times you're given the option to skip with X, not A. You can simply replay the mission from the pause menu if you want.

    Game needs more heists, they're the only "fun" way to make real money.

    The stock market is a brilliant touch but I'd rather hold up banks/jewellery stores then betting on the stock market.

    It maybe something that comes down the line as DLC but at that stage I'd say people will have made enough money not to worry about money itself.

    That papparrazzi car chase mission aggggghhhhhhhh, why cant I just drive!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,042 ✭✭✭zl1whqvjs75cdy


    You can't go into a lot of the shops. I realise this is probably a limitation of the current gen hardware, there's no way we could go into every second shop with the level of realism in the outside world.

    Made a lovely custom car pumped over $100,000 into it, loaded up the game the next time car was gone and so was the money!!!!!! Would not mind if the car was gone and the money was back ****in raging I am. Was with Franklin, so my advice dont pimp the cars in case its a glitch you will just lose money.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,382 ✭✭✭firestarter51


    I did the same put a load of money into a stolen car, parked it in Trevor's parking space it was there the next time I played and then gone the next, only had his pick up truck


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,478 ✭✭✭✭gnfnrhead


    It's a known glitch with the garages. Think it's okay if you use the proper garage rather than the safehouse garage.

    Read a theory online that if you invest in the taco company shares and sabotage the chicken company lorries your share will rise as the other company will be going broke, I spent three hours blowing up the lorries with sticky bombs and RPGs, avoiding cops and my shares went up 4 % and then came down so I only broke even, after putting in half a million
    Lots of people are saying how they made money in this
