Cool Things You Didn't Know About: V Edition

[Testarossa]

Wood can't float on water.

[Sussus Amongus]

If you watch the newest trailer you can see a nice not at all hidden message when Dr. Freidlander says: "Think about the person you wan't to be and reeaally obsess about it." I thought this was a pretty cool message from R* for the players.

It's like a message to the roleplayers or people that know everything, have beaten that "everything" and are runhing out of stuff to do. Or, or, or! It can also be a message about all the opportunities and extra things they have added, so you can be ANYONE you want. (sorry for caps a lot of people misread the point in posts) understand?

To break into any vechicle faster just tap L2 and R2 really fast.

Shoot the vehicle's window is way faster.

A car alarm doesn't appear to affect stealth or the police searching in any way. Seems to be nothing more than an audio effect.

[Officer Ronson]

Well depends on the alarm to be honest, there are car alarms and then there are car alarm horns which actually alert everyone in your vecinity, the former being only a sound effect.

[Cutter De Blanc]

Makes sense, I know I've tear-assed away in front of a cop before with the alarm blaring, but he just kept texting.

 

Los Santos' finest, right there.

If you play "Pack Man" and stop before the Fort Zancudo so the cops don't get triggered Lamar and Trevor will have a long chat about Michael and Trevor in North Yankton and about how he owned a Beagle (the plane from San Andreas)

I thought this was a pretty cool detail.

Wood can't float on water.

Neither do the row boats you can find on the ground, if you push them into the water(using a vehicle, you can't move them on foot) they just sink.

I noticed him say that too, also thought it was cool. Too bad there's no Beagle in V, maybe in next gen. Maybe.

If u use the east side of map to do the mission you can hear the dialogue too, just go slowly or stop before reach the LS/Blaine limit. The Police will be waiting for you after the bridges that that joint and become the big freeway. I actually listened that dialogue. I don't care about the time in missions =]

 

Btw, the east side is more short, but don't have turns and the road is more wide, easily to drive with cinematic cam when F is out the truck.

[LightningLord]

In GTA IV/EFLC, if you rapidly tap L2/LT and R2/RT, you can hot-wire a car much faster. (Without: regular hot wiring. With: it's like turning a car on.) it's much faster. But in GTA V, it has no effect. All cars have the same hot wiring speed. But SUVs/trucks take longer to hot-wire.

When you fire a locked on rocket from the Lazer, press or hold B (square for PS3?) and the camera will focus on the rocket until it hits. I just discovered this today

Interestingly i just discovered this a month ago

I noticed that when flying a helicopter and if having a lot of turbulence, just pause and unpause the game (start button) the heli will become stable. this is very helpful if you're at flight school and still have low flying skill. sorry for my bad english XD

Are you high? I want to be on whatever made you think that when you saw that

[ten-a-penny]

I want this plane back.

Yeah easy to miss. There's a few missions in particular where it's easy to end the discussion far too soon. It's pretty common to miss just a few sentences in many missions, but maybe 2-3 where you can miss a ton. Marriage Counseling is probably the biggest...if you drive directly along the waypoint, you probably miss 50-75% of a huge conversation between Michael and Franklin about life lessons and stuff.

I was on my normal way of thinking pal.

i don't get it then

 

it was just a philosophical scene from the story... Rockstar chose a few of them because they fit well with the Strangers & Freaks theme... both the Dr. Friendlander and Soloman Richards were just supposed to be sort of... 'out there'... because they fit well and set the mood of the 'out there' sci-fi Strangers and Freaks scene

 

no?

 

i didn't get any hidden message hehehe

That specific qoute being in a trailer about a game or a new version of it is usually considered a hidden message. How do you not see that? It's pretty obvious.

Edit: Also, you can't be launched away through a car's windshield (when crashing at high speeds, like in GTA IV) on GTA Online.

You also couldn't do this in IV Multiplayer.

 

Anyway, in some buildings that you can't enter around LS you can actually see elevators moving up and down inside them. It seems like its just an animated texture, but still cool either way.

 

you can.. it happened to me

[Snake Plissken]

Everyone probably knows about this but I discovered it today.

 

I shot a vehicle up with two NPCs inside. Killed the driver and passenger and jacked the vehicle by taking the driver out but my character I was playing with (Michael) didn't throw out the passenger yet until I drove for like 10 seconds. During this point (since the passenger was on the right side) I made a sharp right turn and the body literally flew out of the WINDOW without touching the car as he flew out. They normally get thrown out when the door opens and just drop but I never knew they could fly out the window. I almost died laughing when I noticed this.

In GTA Online you can climb on the back of certain trucks (like the bodhi), just press triangle/y near or above the seat and the character will sit down

You dont have to climb on the back.

I find it annoying how they do that. If there's gonna be all that dialogue they should give you a longer route to the destination that lets you hear it all. In every GTA game i've ever played it's been like this and i always just end up either stopping just before the destination to hear all the dialogue or following traffic laws and driving like normal people to get there slower and hear it all.

[ontdekker_11]

Everyone is called ted after dying.
The last line read's that he "was ted".

A prostitute can sometimes make a flintstone out of you.

 

Anyone in for a towing job? no tanks.

But the tank can tow the towingtruck.

 

Doorlights of useless drowned car's still work.

Car's under a floating cargobob don't pull it downunder.

(I lifted a driving car and wanted to know if the car would pull cargobob downunder, it did't.
Just before the car became close to the water the ped jumped out.
The carlights went out and i Couldn't get in the car.
The doorlight still worked, it went out when i closed the door.)

 

When the flag direction change, so does the smoke of the engine.

 

Flag's are blown to the other side by a copter.

 

A bus can make a burnout when placed right.

 

Lifeguard arrived at 7:30 got out of the car and walk to the tower to make a stand.
A second car just behind it got to the next tower.

 

You can shoot multiple car side-window's with one bullet.

 

Shooting though a frontwindow to an other frontwindow is magic.
The second car window indeed get's a star in the frontwindow.
But the bullet didn't break the backwindow of the first car.

 

Anyone an idea what the f*ck they do at wenger institute?
lokated at customs <3/4>

The red zoom-marker on the right sniper-scope-scale realy works.

 

Trever can jump of a speedophile, make a salto and land on a bridge.
Done in the pool of "pacific bluffs country club" lokated at tennis#<8/8>.
Also done at "the Jetti" (hotel?) lokated at pacific bluffs next to the xero gasoline station.
(So yes, the jetti is in this game)

You can climb over the barrel of the tank, but also stand on it.

 

Not al the roadlid's make a rumble when you drive over them.
The park just north of Micheal's home has some that don't.

At the end of runway 21 at the airport there are 3 fences that can be run over.
lokated at triatlon <1/3>

The building next to Micheals hangar has a inside, just follow the stairs on the back.

there's a rare Vapid Saddler with a tonneau cover...

 

rare for me at least... last night was honestly like the 3rd time i think i've seen one and the first time I was sure that I saw one and actually could catch it to be certain (and steal it) in like probably over 1000 hours of playing gta5 either rare or i'm just unlucky... and i drive a Saddler a lot!

I've seen it occasionally, though i don't really remember how often since i didn't pay much attention to it. All i know is i've seen it at least a few times.
