Sai Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 another glitch i just encountered... in the mission i think its called Cradle Robbing from Louise where u gotta scare the welfare worker. first off the cutscene didn't have Vic of Louise in it, just the scene of the living room, then when I went to the welfare worker and the thugs they were sitting in invisible cars that didn't move. then i played the mission again (cop killed me) and this time the cut scene was fine but the 2 cars were stuck in the ground diagonally in the air and on top of eachother, again not moving Yeah, except that's not just that mission, it can be any one of them supposedly, as I got it with the mission where you go into the Stallionz bar and get attacked by the bikers. I did, however, see Vic during the opening scene, just no Forbes or Lance. Not only were the bikers and Lance invisible, they weren't actually "there", as you saw arrows but they never moved. Tried hitting a few and just hit air. I noticed the Taxi rear door open thing too, but that could just be because of a passenger. And yeah, the street deserted thing is often but pedestrians and cars eventually spawn. Last thing I noticed that I never experienced in my PSP version but knew was around was the upside down world glitch. Got that the other day when I was swimming around Leaf Links. Weird, as the ocean reversed and there was this black pit in front of me. Being the curious fellow I am, I swam in and fell into blue hell (whatever it is) for like 15 seconds and came out on land at the golf course. Actually handy, considering I was looking to get on shore. XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gman8 Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Something that I was wondering I am doing the Empire building missions on protection. I get instructions to go protect a store. Then I get instructions to go and destroy a store owned by the Cholos. I do it, but as the screen loads back up, all of a sudden, I am in the sea, far away from the coastline on the west coast. I get instructions that one of my stores was being attacked and I was to go and save it. Impossible as I can't swim fast enough (too far away) and just die. Is this a glitch or part of the mission? Now that's a glitch worth complaining about. That is a significant glitch. Something that I was wondering I am doing the Empire building missions on protection. I get instructions to go protect a store. Then I get instructions to go and destroy a store owned by the Cholos. I do it, but as the screen loads back up, all of a sudden, I am in the sea, far away from the coastline on the west coast. I get instructions that one of my stores was being attacked and I was to go and save it. Impossible as I can't swim fast enough (too far away) and just die. Is this a glitch or part of the mission? Does this always happen, or did it only occur like once? That's a really weird glitch... Hope it goes away, heh. I just tried it again today and didn't see the glitch again (thankfully). I have done the pimping and extortion missions already, but I don't want to jinx anything in the future. Yep it was weird. If this was CJ in GTASA, you would have been able to swim to shore and continue, but since you can only swim so long in this game, the mission would have been impossible to pass.

GTA_Loco Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 That's why it pays also doing the side missions that upgrade your health, armor, sprinting and swimming abilities, so glitch or no glitch you have extra protection or abilities to cope up with the situation.

Toni Antonio Cipriani Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 Wonder if these glitches have something to do with the Take-2 being Hijacked thingy? I don't have the PS2 version though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

williamcampbell Posted March 13, 2007 Share Posted March 13, 2007 That glitch with the invisible Lance and Forbes and if they were not there...I had a similar one. During "Light my pire", in that cutscene where You and Lance will get the Infernus and the men destroy it, Vic, Lance, the gangsters and the vehicles weren't there. They were talking and the camera changed like if they were there, but nothing appeared. After that, Lance was floating in an invisible bike in front of a tree, but wasn't moving. So I've killed him and started again and then it was fixed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This topics is called "VCS PS2 Bugs & Glitches" I'm saying it's not a bug because it doesn't really affect the performance of the Quadbike or anything else but it's a glitch to me since the jump on feature was left out of the Quadbike but not the other motorbikes.

Natedogg. Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 Well one complaint or bug I find very annoying is random drastic framerate drops in the most comprehensible spots, (ahem....North Point Mall) and just randomly around the city when I'm cruising.

I get instructions that one of my stores was being attacked and I was to go and save it. Impossible as I can't swim fast enough (too far away) and just die. Is this a glitch or part of the mission? That is absolutely a glitch. It happened to me as well, and I opened this thread to see if anyone else had reported it. I was also going the Protection Racket missions (I was somewhere around job 9 or 10 I think), and when I exited a store (like, smack dab in the middle of town), when the game finished loading I was out all the way to the boundary of the sea. And, of course, because of those goddamn swimming limitations, I died well before I could get shore. (And yes, the game text was telling me to hurry up and get to the next store. As if.) Nothing like this has ever happened to me in a GTA game, if memory serves. However, the "empty streets" glitch someone else noted happened to me in one game (and it's not VCS). It was the first Grand Theft Auto. All cars disappeared except ambulances. No idea why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Win98crash Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 I've got both islands open and was going around taking over businesses and repairing mine. After a while, the L3 button wouldn't let me go into manual aim mode. Had to destroy some assets inside a business with a grenade. I saved after that and even switched controllers but L3 still had no effect. Had to reset and reload to get it back to normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natedogg. Posted March 17, 2007 Share Posted March 17, 2007 I forgot to mention when I first started playing the game every 5 minutes it would say my controller was unplugged and it would bring the message up and I had to keep hitting triangle to exit out of it. It sounds a bit odd but my controller was functioning normally, I even unplugged it multiple times but it didn't fix it. Finally after resetting the game it hadn't happened again, I thought it was caused by my controller but I now know it was the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After that, Lance was floating in an invisible bike in front of a tree, but wasn't moving.So I've killed him and started again and then it was fixed... I had the dissappearing characters in cutscenes in previous GTAs, but not in this one, so far after 15 hours in. I did experience many other glitches though, such as my crew and enemy gangs standing in place doing nothing after i roll up to my business being attacked. They just stand there looking at each other. I also had terrible lag during a few missions....cars dissappearing after i exit them and walk only 20 ft...strangely horrible A.I where my crew will not retaliate after getting shot by other gangs. I also had a random crash or two. The most annoying thing however, is the camera mode zooming out on vic or my vehicle without me pressing anything. Instead of the 'medium' range of the camera behind my back, it always winds up switching to the furthest away --- strange. And please, the morons who constantly cry: " ALL GAMES HAVE BUGS...THEY'RE NOT THAT BAD!!!! YOU STILL CAN COMPLETE THE STORY... STOP COMPLAINING!!!" --- stop. Tolerating low standards will lead to designers turning out buggier and crappier titles. Its important to make notice of even the smallest of glitches, so maybe things can be tested bettter in the future. There is no excuse for the shoddy port that is VCS. I had less problems with LCS...no lag, no crashes, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no problem with people reporting glitches they've found in the game, but when you say VCS sucks because of it, that's just stupid. We aren't Rockstar, we can't fix the glitches. Rockstar knows what glitches they put in the game and they should improve on them. Tolerating the glitches won't cause the future GTA titles to get infested with glitches. Rockstar learns from it and moves on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mister Zero Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 When I'm playing, gangs just won't stop attacking my empires. I do each one successfully, and everytime it tells me another is under attack, sometimes on the the other islands. I did 7 in a row before I gave up and turned it off.

That's not a glitch but you'll have to take over every Empire of that gang type or every Empire and reset your PS2 for the attacks to stop for good.

Executive Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 I also had terrible lag during a few missions.... I experienced this as well, and haven't in any other game. Specifically, it seems like the game plots out how events are supposed to take place, and if you decide to do things another way it confuses the system and your frame rate drops into the single digits or some sh*t. SPOILERS-ish: This happened to me on more than one occasion, but I can only remember what happened in one specific instance. It was the mission where you had to go meet Louise when she was hiding behind the restaurant. You get there and she gets kidnapped - then you have to figure out which car she is in Downtown before time runs out. Anyway - after the quick cutscene when she gets kidnapped some dudes come after you and I guess you're supposed to kill them. I didn't really see the point in wasting my time on them, so I just jumped in a car and decided to head Downtown. After I left the vicinity of the restaurant, the frame rate dropped like a ROCK. There seemed to be more pop-in than usual as well, as if to imply that the game can load all that sh*t, but wasn't expecting to. Everything was back to normal after a minute or two, but it was chug-chug-chug for a bit. That gets pretty irritating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goimez Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 funniest bug I've seen in vcs is what I call 'dragged out of car by a bullet' How I done this: I walked in front of a car to make it stop, got the mini-gun out, entered free-aim mode and fired one bullet into the shoulder of the driver. When I did that, something dragged the driver out of the car by his feet. <--The look on my face when this happened dunno if this works with any other guns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
