Things you didn't know about GTAO until now

[matajuegos01]

I only just realised a few days ago that you can stock up on up to 6 armors in your inventory and use them throughout missions

you can stock up 10 if you're level 130 or something like dat

targetting switching in Buzzards/jets - I must have missed that post, can someone please enlighten me?

 

I didnt know you could dodge punches by pressing square on PS3...thanks for for little gem!

 

RT/LT (R1/L1) flick between targets, letting you choose 2 targets per volley.

 

Hold Square/X to auto-dodge, you don't need to time it right, just hold and wait.

Did you not play SP? It tells you how to dodge in fights.

 

As for Buzzard targeting (can't speak for the Lazer as I don't often use it), R1 & L1 switches available targets, just like a gun when on foot.

I did yes, I completed the game before venturing onto online, but missed that instruction (and probably others)...but I am one of those who just works it out myself!

 

Cheers, honestly didn't know that either!

I can't remember for sure, but I think there's a bit where you have to fight someone and it teaches you how to do it, like CJ at the basketball court (happy days). But yeah, there's a lot of that in SP so I'm not surprised you'd forget. I'm sure there's stuff I don't remember, and probably thought at the time that it was obvious and only a small child or the elderly would forget it.

[Synophrys]

I noticed the Combat MG works wonders against (low-skill) Lazer pilots;

 

 

And how is you using auto aim any more skill? lmao. at least he has to try and line up a shot, as you can just snap at him. (granted his flying sucked, but, just saying.)

I get your point, but in fairness the guy flying the Lazer really was poor. I think he was saying that a half-decent pilot would never have given him that chance as they'd either be smart enough to not get that close, or he'd be dead before he got chance to shoot.

Wasn't it the fight between Michael and Simeon that taught you that?

In his support, Gridlok is one of the best pilots I know online

I stole one years ago. Never cared for a cabrio version of it for online. Too girly, mid life crisis esque.

The woman who talks in the GTA O trailer is the exact same woman who talked in the intro of GTA 3.

The news reporter, right? That's dope.

 

I know I was playing GTA 3 the other day and started a new game, checked my YT notifications on my PC, and saw I had a comment reply. Decided to go the video to watch it again for old time's sake, heard both voices, and sh*t brix.

I can't see the Blade. The lines of the car body are so jagged it hurts to look at it. I love this damn car, but I think I have to sell it. I came here to see if anyone else has noticed this.

The chrome center cap on the High end; Hyper wheels actually reflects images like the chrome paint job does.

I just realized today that there is wind in GTA. Whether it is an active variable used for in game dynamics (like car speeds, etc) I don't know, but I confirmed there is changing wind.

 

I discovered by hearing the game with surround sound. I've got my xbox hooked to a 5.1 receiver. And just today I realized that if you fire a gun in gta there will be 2 sounds: The main sound and the echo it makes (like when you hear distant gunshots).

 

I hear the main blast in both my left and right front speakers. What changes is where I hear the echo. In my case if I fired to the west I was able to hear the echo in my front speakers. Firing facing east produced the echo on my surround speakers. If I fired north the echo came from my right (front and surround speakers) !

 

And it changes with time. I was killed on action and respawned outside the hospital. I fired a couple more shots only to find out the directions have changed.

 

It was a nice detail =)

[Kohr-Ah]

Fog. So much fog. More than usual. It makes the city seem more alive, methinks.

I noticed a lot of wind in my lobby last night, was just the sound though no other effects like objects moving in the wind.

Surely the echo would be affected by the surroundings, and not the wind? After all, an echo is the sound bouncing off solid objects.

I've just noticed that if you take the Albany, Buccanner to Los Santos Customs and change the roof to a hardtop, it looks exactly like the Dukes from GTA IV. Pretty neat, huh?

 

I just customised a matte orange Buccanner for Trevor.

Same happened to me a week ago, i thought "what does the 0/9 armor means?".

Can see it now. Here is your Hardtop Albany Buccaneer Dukes for returning on PS4 or Xbone.

today while i was causing trouble with my female secondary character, i found this liberty city refereance at kortz center.

how many here have seen it or seen some lesser known references??

 

[livejoker]

I did. If I remember correctly there's also colored signs around the place, right?

[E•MO•TION]

Tuesday guys.

[-Jacking-]

Yup, but very few players take the time to visit San Andreas properly to notice details or other references! They prefer to stay in Los Santos to make war.

I'm pretty sure San Andreas is the sate... So being in Los Santos means you're in San Andreas.

Stanley`s the worst back-up in the history of GTA. f*cker stands there with his pistol, while i try to do everything possible to keep him alive.

I've saved him countless times. But I NEVER take him with me after getting the package...I grab the armor and run fast as f*ck to the car get in and drive off...

 

Also, I noticed the other day NPC's using turn signals on the rear only though.

At the Lost trailer park you can get into two of the trailers through their doors.

 

Which ones they are I'll leave for you to discover

[Soran Is On]

When you throw yourself out of a moving vehicle your character will brush themselves off after getting up.

 

Laughed my ass off when my guy cartwheeled into a trailer at 100mph, barely survived and just brushes his shoulder off like whatev's
