Things you didn't know about GTAO until now

[No Use For A Name]

I didn't know we can use the water hose on the fire truck. I've seen NPC's use it many a time but had no idea players could fire it the same way we do a weapon.

 

OMG THIS IS THE MOST FUN I'VE HAD IN YEARS!

[Arrows to Athens]

The mystery of the floating bush.

 

 

 

Oh, Rockstar devs.

[Kushology]

Didn't know NPC's raced Online like they do in SP.

 

I was doing a resupply and came across a random group of NPC's. I went further down the road and there was another group, two in vehicles and they eventually took off, side-by-side.

On Last Gen, we were able to drown players with the fire truck that were in Passive Mode...good times.

When two players r riding in a four door car, and one enters the back passenger seat, he scoots over and sits behind the driver. Not exactly life changing, but I'd never seent it.

[Verstappen]

Is that always the case? I sometimes see a player character make room for another by moving to the other side of the bench. But I dont think I've seen a character move to the other side in the back when someone else is not trying to go in as well.

It happened to me. I was on the phone and just hopped in the backseat on the passenger side, only a driver in the front. I was like that's weird, why would you move over there with less leg room?

Best way to dispatch passive mode trolls in Last Gen Edited September 29, 2017 by Pedinhuh

[Anasterian]

I only recently found out that the Kuruma Tail mission in Import/Export makes the Kuruma respawn on a nearby road if it gets into a situation where it's completely stuck.

 

Just another way in which the AI cheats, because if I get my PV stuck like that, I have to abandon it.

That's been a thing since the older GTAs lol

[Madhorse]

Had a weird incident today. I was heading to the downtown medical center to get my fresh spawned cargobob. When I got up the ladder I saw a buzzard hovering over the landing pad, kinda trying to land many times but then always aborting and gaining altitude again. Once I got close they started firing the miniguns. I took cover and aimed to see there were two guys in the chopper. I shot it down and went to examine the bodies. Both merryweather I guess, since they had military outfits.

 

Never had that happen before. No one had put merryweather after me, and it wasn't a back up chopper for any of the players since all few players in the session were miles away.

[III-Ari-III]

Flight formation is similar to riding formation for MCs.

 

AFIK it only heels the player not the vehicle.

 

It does heal the vehicle, i saw several youtube videos about it.

My guess would be someone was off the radar near you with a Merryweather Buzzard Escort. You used to be able to call for those, at least on old gen. Or it is possible someone doing a supply run went near you, I have had npcs from other's missions start static with me.

The Backup Helicopter provided by Merry Weather is different since it does not have any armaments besides two security guards armed with Assault Rifles. If Madhorse was truly under fire against miniguns, then it's definitely not the Backup Chopper.

 

Plus the occupants of the Backup Heli do not use standard Merry Weather uniforms. They have the same models as the Gruppe Sech Security workers.

 

Your latter reason seems the most plausible. Had that happen to me several times.

^ Yeah unexplained choppers = someone's Supply or Sell run, generally. They're very trigger-happy.

Another thing with that mission, you can't get too far ahead or behind the Kuruma, even if you know where the destination is. The source mission just fails.

IDK about you , but I don t remember myself having such a nice , amplified "fog-Effect" in GTA Online , Images aren´t modified or something (maybe some Graphic Settings in my graphic card were modified ? ) :

This is the second time that this happened to me. I think that works at this way: After leave CEO, quickly active Passive mode and you can survive a jet crash:

I used to get that in late 2016 when I made the move to PS4, every time I messed with the depth of field options on PS4...sh*t is downright annoying, it's like I have to use glasses.

 

Eventually it would correct itself.

yeah that´s what I´ve been thinking , It should be the Graphic Settings ....

It´s weird driving a fast car like the Vagner in those pics, you can´t see much actually .... but I like it somehow, it´s more realistic this way ( but plz , not in races )

Hasn't that got something to do with the smuggler's run update? I've noticed i survive all crashes since the update as long as they aren't full head on collisions. I guess all flying vehicles have gotten a buff. Most of the planes seem to be able to take a HL without the occupants dying too. Edited October 1, 2017 by KingpinRCR

There seems to be a sign saying: "Speedlimit enforced by Aircraft" at the eastern highway entrance of Los Santos.

I have got to find that and pose nearby with the Hunter now.

 

Oh, and I didn't know this Simian billboard was here. Not saying it wasn't before (I'm sure it was), just that I didn't know about it.

 

[Pedinhuh]

The layout of the construction of Pillbox North train station makes no goddamn sense.

 

Which makes me believe that if this game ever get a SP DLC that jumps the timeline to the current year, they probably won't finish it.

[Professional Amateur]

If you own a hangar in Fort Zancudo, you still have low-clearance access to it in contact missions. Makes missions like Docks to Stock a complete cakewalk.

Lol. Is GTA V your first GTA game?

 

 

Come on Mach, comments like this (even in jest) will only discourage people from posting here. I would not return if I posted a 'discovery' only for someone to reply with a 'lol. Is this your first GTA game?', especially from a member with STAFF written below their avatar.

[SHADOW OPS]

In fairness to Mach his response was pretty tame. I am surprised no one told this person to end their lives considering they didn't know this.

It's still on this page so there is still time for death threats to come

 

Forget that the page has passed, he/she is safe for now...
