Things you didn't know about GTAO until now

[RaceKingX]

I didn't find out until recently that double tapping the sticks gives you a whole second animation for each emote. And I've been playing since launch. I felt so dumb by how amazed I was when I found out.

[Hylskriksen]

I've just noticed that I have one toe bigger than another. Is this normal?

Yes. If all your toes were the same size, then you would have 8 serious problems.

Don't feel bad. That's why they call it Schpoople. That's only been in there since 1.13

Holding the handbrake after jumping allows you to control the yaw while in the air rather than rolling.

Yeah, this is excellent info...I've been using it all the time now...so handy to know.

Found out today that you can knock over the flat cone things in the middle of the road and watch them flip back up. Spent ten minutes kicking and punching them

I don't know if anyone has mentioned this before, but you can find out your actual overall income by going to the stats on your console. It seems to be untouched by the Great Windfall of 2013. I've also noticed that the console stats are different in another key area: Combat stats. The kills are off on mine by a few thousand. If anyone has any concrete info on why this is so, I would genuine appreciate the enlightenment.

There are no children in Los Santos.

 

 

But 100,000 12 year olds play everyday.

Make sure you're viewing player-kill stats as opposed to NPC-kill stats.

Just to clarify to the people that don't know what their on about. The helmet equipped form the inventory DOES give you extra protection from head-shots. I play DMs all day long and it takes two or three to the dome(close range) rather than just one to kill them, I know this is actual FACT cause it is a major hassle for me when the basturts have got them on. To the people saying this is false info I say to you - stop aiming at the chest and go for the head!!!

 

But then again I've only been in deathmatches for nearly 4 days so what would I know??

I discovered today that there is a place where there is a UFO on a car and signs on the mountain for aliens and for some weird reason, people doing yoga there.

Back to wearing helmets it is so.

Same here! lol

 

The secondary "Air Thrusting" is quite hilarious.

 

Well, that was enjoyable for about 5 minutes...

@malcom function hes talking about hippy camp where you see the ufo in SP

It's actually become very annoying, watching pre-pubescent twats in their youtube videos, thrusting every time they do something they believe to be cool.

Ah yeah, I'm fully aware of what/where he is talking about...I was just thinking its possible that he was trying to be "funny". Like a bad troll. But it he did sound genuine.

 

For example - I dare you to put that comment on the chiliad mystery reddit page haha...youd be eating alive lol

[baby_blue_6_4]

I just noticed when using the weapon wheel you can change weapons with the trigger buttons instead of the d-pad, useful as you don't have to take a hand off the stick to change quickly. Wish you could still run while changing weapons though,

Because I'm sure it could...I'd say trying to kill someone with a headshot who's wearing a helmet would be a lot less guaranteed than if they weren't wearing a helmet. The bullet could be redirected if at a certain angle...it could also absorb a lot of the force etc

Can't believe I only just discovered this a few minutes ago; in the airport hangar next to the 'jump' entrance where the Luxor plane spawns, there's another way in, just next to the fuel tanker, which has a couple of double-doors leading to 2 rooms you walk through.

 

I wish there were a lot more extra little entrances & hidden places like this.

Instead of taking the jump into the airport, go to the other gate on the opposite side of the building. On the right side are some cement barriers, stay right of them, that will lead to a fence that breaks away as you drive through it, unlike every other piece of fence at the airport.

Good advice, but you can get into the airport even quicker by hanging a right at the nearby LSC and going along the fence for a while. Some of it is unbreakable, but most of it will break as you drive into it.

Might as well mention here in case some are not aware but you can break those fences (ones that can be broken with a car) with sticky bombs if you're on foot.

[MadDasher]

Holding RB on one of the race bikes puts you in a race stance which means you don't sit down on the saddle when not going full speed.

As soon as the fence stops being perfectly level, two or three links down the little hill, thats when it becomes breakable.

Agreed.

Didn't know that either, but I can't imagine how anything could be quicker than using the analog stick to go from one weapon to another.

I was being serious and yea, I think it was the hippy camp.
