GTA V Metaphors, Philosophy and Hidden Meanings.

[Scoobysrt]

Happy hunting to you all.

It's been a pleasure helping some of you and a chore reading some of the rest.

My story is complete, I've got all the rewards I want and think there is from the game so it's time for me to move on.

At my age I don't know if I'll even buy a gta6 but if I do I'll likely drop by then with the hope of seeing some of you again.

 

Have fun everyone, I'm out.

On a completely side note, i had a dream last night that DeadMan solved the mystery, told us all via PM how to get our JP's, and then we all went online and rampaged on the Reddit forum members who were all like "WTF?!"

 

The best part of the dream wasn't that we solved it or we had JP's either, it was that we were all just happy and getting along while simultaneously enjoying and communicating our joy through the vanquishing of the Reddit clan.

 

 

DeadMan, i'm switching my horse to you, i got faith in ya.

This is for shoky, cheers bud.

Sad that people are running out of ideas. I've no new leads myself, just still attempting to effect the alien abduction. However, I've just discovered that you can enter the Los Santos Customs that you can buy in single player. The office is pretty detailed but could find nothing of real interest. Just another pointless addition from rockstar it seems! The clock works in the office btw!

I think the Mural Links just to the north where the sunken UFO is and you need to power it or go there during a storm ...

[socrates75]

Deadman is a good horse to back IMHO.

 

 

I started looking at the clocks, I considered that somthing happens there at that time but couldn't decide with what conditions. I need to go back to that at some point.

Speaking of clocks, is it just me or is there a distinctive clicking sound like a second hand from a clock coming from the shed where the bikes are behind the ski gundala at the base of the mountain....i can hear it but because of the traffic going by i cant locate exactly where its coming from?

[JAPZYKAPITANZROYALZ]

anybody notice 1 sunny day mural painting and 1 sunset painting yellow-orange???

can one of these show up a ufo????

any old news about this one???

 

i sold my ps3 to tony, gonna get pc version.

[size_m]

idk if mentioned before, as i didn't read all pages of this thread...

 

just an idea, has anybody already tried to bring all 3 achieveable vehicles to a certain point of interest?

 

the achieveable vehicle for michael would be the old rusty tractor (from epsilon mission), for franklin the space docker (from the space part search). for trevor (maybe) the super quad (from some mission).

maybe they all have to be brought (by their owner) either to the top of mount chiliad or to the altruist camp or to the hippie camp?

or maybe one to each of these places?

[TrevorsStinkyFingers]

Hey all. Sorry for my absence of late. I am onto something new with regards to the hippy camp(map) and where it relates to in game.

 

Very short on data so no pics sorry

 

Make it easy go in game and get in a heli. Fly to just south of the Casino and turn so you can see the vinewood sign straight ahead. On the right you will see the dam and the hill/mountain that surrounds it(the mound with red button?). The yellow paths are the main roads infront of and around the sign. One path on the hippy camp leads around the left side of the vinewood hill, through a valley to the left with a big white banner saying beam me up(Fort Zancudo).

 

You have to look from the location/perspective i mention above to see it fit almost perfectly. You must fly up a little too in order to see it all appear as you will even see the radar dishes/6equj5 right there in the distance between the vinewood hill and the dam/mountain just as it is in the hippy camp model. Remember i said before that the blue stripes(with wow signal) are designed to signify something in the distance/background.

[TrevorsStinkyFingers]

Sorry to double post.

 

So with what i am seeing now and now i know i was looking from the wrong location/perspective does this mean we can move forward? I mean i am fairly confident i now know where the hippy camp is showing us to go/look in game. This means it should be easier to place/figure out things like the stars and the world map, the ring, the love hearts and the alien faces etc. Is the world map the observatory? Love hearts banging hookers? And then on to Fort Zancudo and how we get beamed up?

 

Feel free to help me out if anyone can please. Thanks.

 

@xmarqs. Your post above suggests a change? Are you back with us and no more derailing etc? I guess time will tell. If this is the case then good on you.

[MrEZmoneymaker]

Hey guys its been awhile since ive been part of the search or even played gta. Life things have side tracked me for a few months.

Was hoping id login & see "we found the jetpack!!" so was a little disappointed this wasnt the case, but also rapt the thread didnt die & many of the same hunters are still working on it *thumbs up*

Im going to spend a few days reading over the previous posts & checking things ingame since i was last on, their ideas & observations & also the file thread & see if i can find a something to maybe look at? Im grasping at straws most likely, as many of the long time hunters are very skilled & have alot of experience in the search, but maybe a fresh set of eyes & a different train of thought may give things a different perspective?

Keep up the great work guys! im impressed with all your determination & perseverance on the jp hunt. *bows*

 

I will only post if i believe i have found a possible line or theory to follow.

I was never gone to begin with. Never derailed the thread either.

 

I simply won't accept coloring within the lines when the lines are not defined by the art. More so in fact when the art is guiding you to color outside of it's lines.

 

Censorship and Oppression run wild in this topic and the Mystery will never be solved in these ways.

 

But, this post will be flagged as off topic for speaking truth. NOBODY here, including myself, has any idea how to solve it and yet certain people feel they can tell others how to think, in which ways are correct, which ways are wrong, etc etc.

 

There is no freedom of speech in this topic if you have a genuinely unique thought. you must only think of things that the controllers have thought of themselves so they can immediately debunk it, which makes them feel special, OR if you do have a unique idea it is immediatly burned down because certain people don't want to feel like they have noth thought of everything themselves already, hurting their ego's.

 

GTAV and the going's on in this topic are a micro-simulation of the real world, and you have to decide what "Role" you are going ton play, Oppressor or Free Thinker. You can't be both at your convenience, unfortunately.

 

EDIT: See. Censorship to the extreme. Moved my post to this topic because i speak too much truth. Nobody is allowed to think for themselves or else SuperMod Raavi get's all butthurt. Dude is a control freak.

a few weeks ago i started the altruist shootout but left before killing them all to see if i could bring more hitch hikers to them. i couldn't even get random events to spawn after this so deemed it a fail but i was playing as trevor a few days ago and driving on the dirt roads near the altruist camp when out of the blue it started the shootout again. i killed a few and left again hoping i could redo at will but i have been passing by there every game day for about 2 game weeks and it hasn't started again. i was hoping to use it to induce storms but can't seem to get it going again so it might need a specific day or time. the last time it restarted was a sunday afternoon.

@sharkem. If you don't clear the camp then they will still attack the same way they do had you never delivered the victims.

This was talked about a couple weeks ago. I had an idea just like this one that it may be possible to bring more than 4 victims but Deadman tested it for me and he got the same results you have. His random events stopped showing up alltogether.

 

Rafman400 has edited his post over at reddit and has done further testing on multiple days and has been able to trigger thunderstorms by using the psychic site. So far the storms only occur at either 930 am or pm and will last only 4 hours..

 

Has anyone here tested this themselves?

 

Anyone elses game been freezing up since the latest patch? I thought the freezing only affected online but its been happening to me in SP also.

 

@optic .. I think we have all been there.. The other day though along that road I found a small area blocked off by a fence which can be blown up and inside the area is a roll down gate. Just seemed fishy to me. Why have a kind of hidden door behind a fence which has to be blown up for no reason. Ill try to post a pic and location later.

Edit.. was bored last night , started typing to myself and im just gonna paste it here lol Just some random thoughts nothing new...

 

Im always trying to come up with a time line of how the story should unfold and trying to figure out what steps are missing. The new update info states SP dlc coming later this year which tells me we are months away from getting any help from R* or whatever dlc they present to us.

-So we start with the frozen alien and the underwater UFO (both can be found before 100%)

-We play the game, and find a bunch of clues(mostly pointing towards Chiliad) Riding the cable car is a requirement for 100% so your bound to find the Mural.

-The Mural shows an eye/ufo above the mountain so we investigate and find the platform which has the same looking symbol as the Mural under it and the "come back when your story is complete"

-Upon further investigation we locate the 5 glyphs on the mountain which line up very closely with the 5 Xs on the Mural.

-We put the clues together and find ourselves the MC UFO which leads us to believe we have just cracked the egg and also gives us 2 additional clues

1-FIB

2-Noise between 3-4AM

-Next we remember the little UFO we saw on top of the station waggon that looks almost just like the one on the Mural. Upon further investigation of the site we find more clues and are led to the UFO which has but one clue for us-FIB

-Lastly either by sheer luck while playing the game we happened to notice the green lights above the FZ bunker OR the jetpack figure led us to search FZ, locate the lights, Investigate above and find another UFO which gives us 2 clues

1-segregrate and rearrange

2-green lights between1-4AM (pretty sure of these times,correct me if I am wrong)

-I am not 100% on the last part about the jetpack figure. I know we all want a jetpack. But this is what we have right now. This and the sticker in Lesters house are the only 2 referances we have.

-So our story suddenly ends and we are left with only these clues

1-FIB

2-Segregrate and rearrange

3-A time frame between 1-4AM

 

I dont believe the FIB could have built these because the only known real UFO is the one underwater and its still there.

-this is far as I got lol

 

Was just looking at my pics .. came across this one that I dont even remember taking. any info on this ??? looks very interesting.

http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/games/gtav/snapmatic/myphotos/photo/5zpvQ10hckKJuy8VGYajmQ

edit..well the location is some rehab center. The photo is on the outside of the building west side. there is also 5 people doin yoga behind the building.

I still think we were given specific pointers to the FZ ufo. The alien welcome house and its viewing direction, but also the fact that the bunker sits at an exact 90 degree angle from the peak of chiliad when you run a line from the salvation mountain mural site through chiliad that lines up with the cluck n bell factory. Why make this exact line when none of the previous lines ive ever plotted have perfectly straight lines off them? i know it could be pure coincidence but to be that exact? thats a pretty big coincidence to me. Ive plotted lines from all the major finds in the game on a sat map & not 1 has ever been at a perfect right angle except that 1?

Im with you regarding the FIB & ufo theory. I still dont believe the ufo salvation mountain mural site is a fake. I still feel its been used as a decoy or a pointer towards the fib to help unravel the mystery, but as many others i still havent found or seen anything concrete enough to make it a positive claim.

That pic is interesting. Havent seen it myself, but the only pic in all the box images not repeated is the union jack. Could this simply be a reference to R* & it being associated to the UK?

Im still working through all the previous thread posts, & hope this lightning trigger find helps me debunk a few old theories ive had.

@stangone50: That pic you took is at the Rehab Center in Richmond. I took a pic of it too the other day. I have that marked as a point of interest since the people there were doing yoga. I still haven't ruled out yoga as something tied to this mystery.

Edit: I also took this pic of a boulder in the front yard that looks kind of like a cracked egg. http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/games/gtav/snapmatic/myphotos/photo/54Gp6fi-P0ytN0VknWZrmQ

@sharkem. If you don't clear the camp then they will still attack the same way they do had you never delivered the victims.

 

@xmarqs. As i thought, still bonkers.

i know that but they still only attack trevor if he prompts them. what i'm saying here is that i had somehow triggered the shootout mission that usually only triggers when you bring the 4th victim. as i said i triggered it the normal way before this but left the camp before killing them and getting the altruists cleared message.

also my random events had come back because i did the bachelor party running man event and noticed that the tied up guy had 2 x's drawn on his thigh with lipstick.

 

@stangone i tried the psychic thing but got no rain or storms.

[socrates75]

Nothing amazing but i figured i should post it, i found another area you can fall through the map, just walk up to this door in the tunnel and the floor in front of it lets you fall through.

 

http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/games/gtav/snapmatic/myphotos/photo/lLBUMrsfDUqkzr0tPp6u_g

 

Also this is the entrance to the dead end tunnel on the edge of the land on the east side of the map, is it me or does it have the same shape as the cove by the humane labs which looks like the cave at the altruist camp?

OK so I'm still playing my 'eye spy' game on GTA and my last few days have been quite interesting.

First, if you go to the top of the hill behind the tower at the altruist camp and then look over to Mt Josiah at the lightest hours of the day you will see this

http://imgur.com/a6TOpzT

http://imgur.com/2nHKkFi <----highlighted

Note that this will not be able to be seen at sunrise or sunset. There is a specific window (approx. 10am to 3pm) where you can see this. Which fits into the whole embrace the light crap.

 

Second, if you go out to sea where the sacrifice stone is facing you will come across these islands

http://imgur.com/c6dajg7

If you stand on the end of the island with 3 people round a campfire and a little hut with a mattress in it you see this

http://imgur.com/7KAxrU6

This is a more complicated version of the eye on the mural and glyphs on Mt Chiliad. The smaller rock in front of the larger rock forms the inner circle and the larger rock is the outer cirlcle. Completed with a line through it as seen here

http://imgur.com/imk7Rt0

As you can see its not perfect but you get the idea.

 

To be clear it seems like the first one I posted is what the altruists graffiti speak of and is probably the best of all the eyes I've seen when comparing them as its almost perfect. The image can only be seen from far away (different texture) as when you zoom in it simply vanishes due to the minute detail being exposed. The same as the bird that can be seen on the side of Mt Gordo.

 

Also, the second one seems too much like Jesus toast. But if you go in-game and view it you will realise that the island to be stood on is pretty much a platform to see what I've posted. The island (you are standing on to view this) has a long thin bit almost like a pathway. At the end of this you can see what I see.

 

 

So guys, what do you think of the 'eye' at the top of Mt. Josiah? Pretty good fit?

@Tirk - red herring "is used to refer to something that misleads or distracts from the relevant or important issue", so is often used on gaming

 

Came across with this yesterday on other thread (can't remember where, but on gtaf):

http://grandtheftdata.com/landmarks/

 

Although some of real life ones are debatable (lighthouse, MC, etc.) and Humane Labs still have no fit in real world, it's pretty cool, at least for those (like me) that have never been in LA area.
