GTA V - Arrrgghh's!!

antodeco

So, what annoys you about GTA V? Overall the game is great (as said by nearly everyone), but as with all games, there are a few things that just annoy me, and nearly have me turning off the console! (I said nearly!).

Climbing walls - No, i dont want to just head first into it and lad on my arse. I wanted to climb it!

Inconsistency with structures - Driving at slow speed and hit a pole. Over it falls, and off I drive. Driving at full speed and hit another pole, doesnt move and my car bounces around the place.

Randomly getting stuck against things - Similar to above, I find myself getting wedges against small things, that any vehcile could easily push away/driver over. (This happened last night on a set of steps. Car refused to drive over them as the police were chasing me).

Camera angle getting stuck - Hiding in a corner/driving beside a wall, I sometimes cant move because I cant see where I am. The camera gets stuck due to the structure Im against, and the camera just twirls about over head.

Not that gun THAT gun - Big gunfight against the police. Running low on amma, and decide to change weapon. Jumps off the chosen one at the last minute and end up bringing a knife to a gun fight (literally)

Psychotic drivers - I know this is part of the fun, but the amount of times Ive been stopped and end up getting hit by a car and then being run over. Its not a case of me jay walking, its just more so a lack of physics and common on the roads.

Immune to bullets, no so much hills - I get shot a few times, health is low but I survive. Later on, I run up a hill, somehow fall, and become a horizontal gymnast, rolling down and getting badly injured (to the point of dying).

I think Ill have a lie down - Similar to above, you fall down and decide to have a little nap whilst police are shooting at you. It takes way to long to stand back up sometimes!

As I play more, small (and I do stress small) things are bugging me.

So what are the things that annoy you in the game?

I find the choppers fine, very easy to control except for the excessive wobble, the planes have the same problem at times. Just left stick full forward at all times and hold right trigger all the way down, then vary pressure as needed on the left stick to vary speed or altitude.

Oh I know, I'm able to fly them but they're no fun. There is an excessive levelling of the helicopter that you always have to fight against, you can barely roll them. If this was done to make them easy to fly, it hasn't, and they should add a toggle to allow a more realistic flight model. Older GTA games let you switch to proper pitch, roll and yaw controls from the basic set for example.

Check the police impound. If you've not done it already, purchase the garages for all characters. Cars stored there don't disappear.

Yep I've now maxed out a Adder 3 times (bought once) and I cant find a single one now

I think it occurs towards the end of the story if not after, but when you zoom in on Michael, one of the cutscenes is him dropping his wife off to do some shopping near the Ponsobys nearest the golf club. In the cutscene he opens her door to let her out before proceeding to walk around to get back into the car. Across the road there'll be a free Adder 100%.

I bought one and I think all my characters now have one.

I know there's one for Trevor near the Ammunation in Pillbox.

Are fewer. And it doesn't make sense that every single car in the city is the exact same type.

That's due to the RAM limitations I'd imagine, I'm sure the first GTA on next gen will be amazing.

Also, what's with the condescending grammar nazi'ism?

Where is the impound? I didn't even see a police station yet, other than the same one from being arrested.. mostly killed though!

I don't think I bought any garages, yet I have the three?

It appears as a white car on your map. If it's not there, they don't have a car for that character.

Every safe house had a garage for saving cars but they were going missing before the patch haven't tried them since, my Bugatti wasn't in the car impound oh well off to the spawn for another

Pillbox garage works every time no missing cars

I like stalking randomers in GTA games, in 4 they always had a job a place to eat and then home(some even cheated on their OHs). I would watch them carefully for days then murder them and follow their replacement and also murder them. All the AI had a purpose a place to go or something to do, even the gang bangers.

5 doesnt have that, the AI go in circles I have yet to find one with a purpose, even scooter buddy goes in a circle.

I dont like that

They had to sacrifice some in order to have such a large map etc. I doubt many even noticed a change, that's how minor it was.

Did they? Seemed like everyone just walked or drove around.

That's what they do in GTAV too but at least you can interact with them by holding the right button.

Perhaps they lost their jobs, their homes were repossessed and they have no money for eating out. They are doomed to wander about aimlessly....sounds familiar, maybe the recession has hit Los
Santos...

It's only a small(ish) gripe but the GPS system in the cars has prevented me from suspending my disbelief in relation to the supposedly huge, sprawling Los Santos. A lot was, and is, made about how big the city is but if you travel to the edge of LS and place a waypoint at the direct opposite edge and drive to it, you'll see that the points are roughly only three miles apart. In my estimation, in terms of area, that ranks it somewhere between Mullingar and Dundalk in a list of the world's largest cities (or towns). There's no reason to believe that LS is larger than any other GTA city but not knowing the actual size of the city might have helped to create the opposite impression, hence ditch the distance metres next time.

On a related note, what's the story with every major American city being an island so far? Aren't there ways to finally get a GTA city on the mainland?

The city/airport/docks is pretty much the same size and GTAIV Liberty City. And that's only about a third of the whole game map.

As for GTA being on the mainland, unless they revert to GTA1's idea of having a huge wall along the edge of the map (which would be negated anyway with all the planes and helicopters), I can't see it happening. It'd be far too hard to explain in any way that wouldn't be more ridiculous than the cities just being islands.

Unless the next game is "GTAVI: Under The Dome"

Yeah but all the Elder Scrolls games are pretty much mainland settings. Anyway, they still must have to do something similar in the current GTA re flying off the map. What's stopping me flying or boating to Liberty City? Island or no island, it's all the one.

Why can i only put one fighter jet in the big hanger i have at the airport? i put 2 in there, came back and i only had one

You can only fly one at a time :pac:. Besides which, if a plane/jet is stored in your hangar it's always there even if you crash one. Just go back to the hangar and you'll still have one. I've destroyed dozens of fighter jets as Trevor but there's always one in my hangar.

krudler

Finally stole the fighter jet, wheeee! I fired a load of rockets at some stuff and then got away from the police choppers, lost my wanted level, dove out and chuted into the playboy mansion.

Like.

Shoreside Vale in GTA III was mainland. You just couldnt get past the wall without the almost impossible to fly dodo, or using cheats. Even then, you couldnt land anywhere as it wasnt solid. Personally, I'm happy enough with islands as it means more detail. Infinite land would lead to cuts elsewhere.

They may be able to do it on Next Gen consoles, but I doubt they will waste the resources.
