Has no one realized that he pretty much confirmed an instgram app in game.

This is the GTA V section, your resonable assumption based on facts have no place here. biggrin.gif

 

Congrats on your psychic ablilities and/or good guess on what R* would take from real life and use in game. I just wonder if social media will play a big part in-game considering that our [real life] world is over saturated with it.

I think its funny how much sh*t I got for that thread and how it was a dumb idea.

I'm expecting the reply you get from [email protected] to change on Monday.

I find it very curious that you pop in from time to time only when there's been a new tweet activity.... ph34r.gif

 

Are you a troll hired by R*? yawn.gif

 

Not only are you the topic starter but what are the odds? If it wasn't for you, we would have waited a long time before we found out about the twitter feed.....you just seem suspicious, nothing personal.

I might snap a picture on my iFruit phone to aid you in your quest. I just installed the Instamatic app that allows me to add filters and share it with my friends.

Adding filters to screenshots confirmed!

can you spot the map outline? biggrin.gif

Catalina Island confirmed biggrin.gif

You guys should know that this was already in 2004 on the website. I highly doubt that they already knew the outline for the map of V, 10 years later.

 

Unless they just "copied" it from this picture.

Well sh*t. It's early in the morning.. okay, not that early. Also apparently I didn't notice the smileys there.

 

 

Yeah, that's a lame excuse confused.gif

So was there anything noteworthy to come out of that screen saver aside from pretty concrete feelings that the scenes are in game locations and the possibility of EpsilonInsider being another ARG/Find The Blue/deepthroat type situation?

We got a kick ass preview of the updated lighting and reflection system and cloud cycles that are gorgeous...

What are we all complaining about!!!

I've not followed any news for 6 months for this exact reason!

Anyway, the game releases any moment now, I'm guessing next month the 14th or so

Are you joking? You haven't been following any news?

 

Not sure if you are joking but the game isn't out until 17th September.

Imagine waking up out of a coma after San Andreas came out, and then seeing GTA V.

 

It would blow your mind suicidal.gif

As a test, I set my date forward by a month on my Windows PC and the Windows version played just fine.

Well somebody tried that a few pages back, on Mac, and it gives the message that it has expired anddoes not launch.

 

Also, I think Rockstar know what they are doing. They didn't spend 5 months making a screensaver that accidently expires next week - after promising new updates next week also. It's common sense I think...

It gives a message and doesn't launch because the screensaver was compiled with the software in trial mode. It's a protection so some company doesn't just use the trial version to create a screensaver to mass distribute. Since the software they used for Windows is free and doesn't have any sort of trials, the screensaver continues to work. Like I said, if Rockstar was going to make the screensaver expire, they would have done that in Flash. Looking around the Flash code, there's no "expire code" in it.

 

Further more, Rockstar took steps to ensure they could update the content in the screensaver remotely. They wouldn't have bothered with this if they had planned to make the screensaver expire.

 

They didn't spend 5 months creating it. After they knew internally they were going to face a delay, the screensaver was put on the back burner until marketing vamped up again. Kinda like the box art. They had it back in January but when they knew they were going to face a delay, they held off releasing it. That doesn't mean during the months between January and April they were working on it the entire time.

 

tl;dr: Some Flash designer forgot to check if the software was in trial mode and everyone is reading into it too much.

 

EDIT: Oh and this same exact thing happened to the band Muse a while back. They released a screensaver using the same exact software Rockstar is using and somehow trial mode got activated and made the screensavers expire. They had to release a new version to correct the issue.

This definitely makes more sense, thanks for the insight smile.gif

I have climbed the Solitary Tree and I assure you that it is indeed a screen saver that is hitting the Internet soon. Stick to the twitter for the truth. There is no hidden message.

 

Our leader does not lie. Believers should know he can be trusted, as he was in the past.

 

 

The blue filter makes me think of "Find the Blue"

Maybe to find the blue, we have to find that lone tree on the rock. Or the lighthouse. Or scuba dive for something special in the area.

Find the first post.

 

if anyone hasnt figured it out, EpsilonInsider meant you have to find the Solitary Tree in response to LotusRIP.

I'd LEAN on the side of that tree, or SIT under it, EATING MY REALISTIC STEAK while I'm on a job as a BUS DRIVER, driving buses for $15/day.

I noticed how Take Two is back in the news bigtime...not only GTA V this week and probably next week as well, but also 2K with the re-reveal of the XCOM shooter this friday and it's said to be a squad-based tactical shooter, awesome stuff.

Hahah, you know man..i've been much more absent from the forum compared to early this year and last year. Last year i pretty much had somewhat of an addiction to this forum, but i think a lot of people did wink.gif. But after the news of the delay this year, i decided it was time to spend my time on other things. Among them...playing a lot of awesome new and old games. But you know how it is..one can only stay away from GTA related stuff for so long. Soon i started playing GTA IV again and then you start to look forward to GTA V news again. And luckily, updates seem to be happening again. The wait for the game itself though isn't hard at all anymore, which is good.

Other than that weird expiration date on the screensaver is there any other reason to expect something next week??

Not really, except for that 29th is of course GTA IV's release date smile.gif If i were ya'll i'd just take it easy and with a grain of salt and not expect anything big next week. We all know about disappointments...let's chill biggrin.gif
