So waht's with this target information nonsense?

[Zoots Remuvah]

So half awake this morning, I get a loading screen after coming out of a mission - mentioning something about holding down select/back when the crosshair was on a player and being able to find out information on them/place bounties etc?

 

Anyone seen this feature? is it new? Have I missed this before?

 

and what's the fecking point given that most of the time when you've got someone in your crosshairs you're going to kill them and if you don't you're going to get merked yourself?!? Crazy system I say!

[Malibu454]

Must be a new feature but I think they mean the blip on the map.

Nah it specifically said crosshairs!

 

srsly, it was a loading screen I've never seen before n'all and it suggested holding down select/back would bring up a menu in game..

 

but like I say - in a firefight that's gonna be lam3z0rs..

Arg I always forget to try that one... because as you said when someone is on my crosshair... it's for a reason.

Maybe it works in passive mode I don't know.

[Zoots Remuvah]

yeah but you can't target in passive alas..

 

figure I'll try it tonight I'm a private session with someone that's not going to kill me...

[Zondar]

There's a crosshair in the map though is it definitely not that? Otherwise this is one of the most useless features ever.

I'm fireman but when I'm off duty I'm an arsonist.

 

 

I've actually heard of this in real life... fireman was a pyronmaniac though and got his rocks off from hearing the fire engine's bell ringing.. ergo, he'd set fires off-duty so he could get called up for an emergency and ride the fire engine to the fire he set.. o.0

well unless you use complex aiming reddicals which most do not,, meanin in a general sense of using the cross hairs on your map seeing as those are the only cross hairs most players will see in gta considering their aim reddicals are fking dots...

if he set the fires there would be no way for him to be at the fire station to recieve the call to go and fight the fire he just set... unless he's the fking flash dude.. I think moms been reading to many fairy tails to you. Before you say sht about ohhh he could've been down the street,, bs Edited March 21, 2014 by Sushi__Wolf

[mo-seph]

it was added in patch 1.11 i think in the belief that it would make it easier to do all the things it mentions... but probably mainly for Kick/reporting.

Ever the cynic eh?

 

a) It was in the middle of the countryside

 

and b) the fire station was essentially unmanned given that it was voluntary-

 

and c) It did actually come to court and make the papers..

 

furthermore d) This happened in the 50s so it wasn't quite the rapid response service we have these days

 

plus e) It's probably not that unfeasible to set a fire to start burning slowly. It will take some time for it to be discovered.

 

 

So, please, disprove away..

voluntary firemen, ever heard of them?

it happens more than you think

 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Leonard_Orr

just one of many

just google and you'll find dozens of articles about firemen arsonists, I found a couple of articles saying there's over a 100 arson related arrests in the fire department each year

[EW200]

To answer the question I am pretty sure they mean to put the cross hairs on the start menu map over the player's blip.

 

There have been a bunch of new information screens during loading since 1.11, but I haven't seen this one.
