GTA 5 Goofs

[universetwisters]

- The Ballas are "built" up as one of the State's strongest gangs, in-spite of regularly losing a lot of members thanks to the Online Protags, and the SP crew. Also, how the flying f*ck do the government find Merryweather to be good homeguards when they are constantly f*cked over by the same people who call for pick ups just to kill the pilot?

 

I never considered GTA Online to be cannon with the events of V and stuff.

Why though?

[Maibatsu545]

The entire game is a "goof". The story is complete rushed garbage, the worst in GTA history. It's full of plot holes and nonsensical contradictions from gta4.

But they are.

Lester mentions the online player in the Vangelico heist but says the character is too unpredicable to work for them

Franklin mentions that the witness from Madrazo's case from the mission "judging the jury" disappeared, obviously because the online character killed everyone.

There's always that one douche that runs in to turn a thread into one of those threads. Don't be that guy.

There's always that me douche that wants to backseat mod and stifle other people's valid opinions and pick a fight when there is no fight to be picked. I'd ask you politely not to be that douche but you've already proven that you are, so you can take your triangles and stick em where the sun don't shine, and I'll continue saying whatever the hell I want.

First off, you should learn what a backseat is before you try and use it as an insult because it seems like your definition of it is someone's who's not simpleminded enough to call you out on your bullsh*t in attempts to start yet another war of which game was better and why V sucked on any topic dealing with V. Oh, and I'm stifling people's opinion's? Do you even take a look at your own comments before you hit "post", or do you just pop in what ever comes to mind? But since you've already confirmed that you say "whatever the hell you want", there's no point in you answering that.

 

If there was any thread praising V, there'd be someone coming in pants held high just to f*ck sh*t up. Don't see how this accounts for backseating, or how someone who doesn't like seeing threads f*ck up is labeled as a backseat. But you're probably just using that word because everyone else is, and it's "cool". Seeing as how anyone who says they like something is bound to get some backlash from people who already ruin this side of the forum, and vice versa.

 

Trust me, dude. You don't wanna go there. I can spend hours re-quoting all your pasts posts just to have myself a laugh at your bigotry and your notion that I'm "stifling" people's opinions. (I know you're biased because you refer to your opinions as valid, and you wonder why I called you a douche). Seriously, there was not one post that was made to start an argument here before you peaked your little nose in just to do the favors.

Go ahead. Spend hours digging through my posts. I'll be over here laughing at you for wasting your time.

I was off. Just checked your profile and your comments are so similarly packed together with the same rehashed material, that it'd only take me a few minutes to scavenge.

Please re-read the OP:

I was thinking about most of the inaccurate/inconsistent stuff in GTA 5, and I was wondering if anybody else caught them yet. Because of this, I was wondering if there should be a thread to document this kind of stuff.

 

This thread is for documenting examples of inaccuracies and goofs in GTA 5, not for making all encompassing criticisms.

 

Please stick to the brief.

 

Thanks.

Then I guess I'll just look at the events rather broadly then. It's just hard to take something like Online seriously, like how you've got all this crazy running around with tanks and jets, while in single player, it's as tame as any other GTA city.

 

At least in IV, the multiplayer was kept largely separate from single player, plot/canonwise, but that's a discussion for another thread.

[PhillBellic]

Do the Police Vehicle Liveries count? I find them to be very Inconsistent. Look at the LSSD, and LSPD Vehicles for starters.

My dad is 59, owns a modern day cell phone and surfs the Web frequently. He has no idea what an Internet troll is or what a hipster is. Do you know why? Because he doesn't visit stupid websites where people do that stuff. He goes to nice clean places and talks with other similar minded car enthusiasts who don't treat each other poorly. So, as the dad character he is written to be, Michael was pretty spot on.

There's some things in GTAO that are canon and are not canon.

 

Stuff like the Heists in Online are canon, for example Trevor kickstarts T.P.I with the help 4 Online protagonists in the Series A Funding Heist.

 

Probably about 97% of gameplay in GTAO, like grinding RR 50 times, that isn't canon at all, neither is running around with tanks.

 

Basically GTAO is canon but storywise, not gameplay, in Story Mode the online protagonist is just a regular criminal, however when you play as the Online character you get to make up your own story which isn't canon but you pretend it is

[donnits]

Gameplay/story segregation, basically

[~Tiger~]

When the Grapeseed Hill Billy is tap dancing, he is in a dirt yard, yet his feet are making tappity-tappity noises as if he were on boards.

[svanderman]

In his first single player mission, Trevor has to follow Terry, Clay and some other bikers to find out the location of the Lost MC trailer park. But in the GTA Online Series A - Bikers heist setup, Trevor knows exactly where the bikers live.

The same also applies for his missions like Romance Isn't Dead, Daemon Run...

That's one of the reasons why the fans hated V storyline, it's chokefull of inconsistencies to the point that we can notice them in our first gameplay, and that's seriously a bad thing.

Speaking of kick starting TPI, he goes to the protagonist's apartment in Los Santos, while during that friends reunited mission, he says he's never been to Los Santos.

Something I find goofy is the crop duster just dropping out of the sky and exploding.

 

(Yeah I know planes drop around the map like around M's house but the Cropduster is the most reliable for plane crash failure)

 

Speaking of planes, another "goof" is GTA Online when doing the Prison Break, and the jets not only slow and easy to evade, but they just fall out of the sky (go offline) I don't know if this is possible to shut off a jet in flight like that but even if it is true to life I'm sure the pilots would try ejecting...I'm sure they've built a system to eject from the jet even if the electronics are "offline" if that's what the mention of going offline means in the mission. If not sucks to be a pilot. I may have missed a key part of that Heists story, do they EMP blast the jets? why do the jets just fall?

What gets me is

 

How can any of the protags have their heads blown off but be brought back to life ?

 

How can they go on a murder spree but hide from the cops in a tunnel for a couple of minutes and its like it never happened ?

 

In what alternate reality does a T-Shirt cost 1200 bucks?

 

How come I can beat one person to death but two is too much ?

 

Because its a video game hahaha, as realistic as you want it be its still just a game and some things are better left to the imagination ! How boring would it be if they stopped to explain everything. In the end this was one of the best video games EVER made I mean after 3 years I still enjoy popping it in the old PS4 and playing it and I still find new sh!t all the time. The best 65 bucks I ever spent

I don't think there was a part of the game where he said he hasn't been to Los santos, Or I don't remember anyway, I remember Wade said that but Trevor didn't, you can make Trevor visit LS in the game so I doubt this dialouge is present.

I just said, he told wade it was his first time going to Los Santos in Friends Reunited, and then I think In Packman or whatever it was called, he told the same thing to Lamar.
