The Vapid Speedo has an engine that produces very low RPM's, yet Turbo makes the car go faster, but no Turbo noise is present.

 

(Turbo only gives the engine power once the engine hits a certain RPM, but since the Vapid Speedo's engine has such low RPM's, the Turbo shouldn't do anything.)

 

Are you basing that on anything you've seen in the game? As far as I knew, turbo simply increased the rate of acceleration.

Probably already said but, That hookers run when you pull up in a cop car with the sirens on.

Turbo does increase acceleration rate, but upon further inspection, turbo should not affect the Speedo.

But thankfully it does :) even though it can't be heard (talking from experience as I own a FM one)

I have one as well. It's strange to think that Turbo Tuning improves the acceleration of the Speedo, whereas in reality, it wouldn't work.

That's the thing though - this is not reality. I've seen people arguing before now over whether or not turbo should work on the Voltic. Of course it should. It simply means acceleration += an arbitrary figure. It's not an electric engine. It's a computer model that is based on a bunch on numbers.

 

That's why I asked if you based your comment on anything you've experienced, for as far as I can see it shouldn't matter what vehicle it is. Turbo works.

Why wouldnt a turbo work on a low RPM engine? It all depends on the turbo. Some spool up with low RPM no problems. Diesels anyone?

 

Plus Furry_Monkey is right. Its all a bunch of 1's and 0's. Instead try to realise the truth. There is no Van.

That doing 5 Gang Attacks from the same gang in the same session gets you a bounty on your head and a message from the boss of that gang.

Had thing happen to me, got the text from the boss for the first time, spooked me inna goodings way.

 

Kept looking round corners for the first five minutes, thinking a car of hitmen were coming like when you owed money to the Casino back in San Andreas...that was fun.

i only just noticed that when your racing (after over 1500 races this is) and you push down the d-pad you get a list of the current racing time difference between who your racing on the top left side of the screen... (A bit like when you push down on the d-pad in freeroam)...

 

Dead handy for seeing how far in front of everyone i am :)

When you turn on the sirens in police/emergency vehicles you can turn off the siren but keep the lights on. You have to double tap the horn button really fast.

Idk how many other people have noticed or not, but there's a homeless camp up in Paleto Bay. It's right off the highway from the direction where you go to Sandy Shores. It's easy to miss assuming you're speeding, but if you drive average you'll see the turn off, and right after you drive under the bridge it's right there.

The deathmatch 'commune' is there. Nice place, it's also where the tow truck used to spawn in story mode. There's also a soccer ball in the drainage system nearby.

When in a lobby for a mission, deathmatch, or whatever if you change the radio it works only for you and not for everybody else in the same lobby, a guy had a mic and I was able to listen NonStop pop in his mic buy I was listening to worldwide FM.I am not sure if this was posted before.

An NPC just hit me and knocked my hat and glasses off!

 

Never seen that happen before!

 

 

They're not permanently gone though, I just went into the interactive-accessories menu and selected them again.

Why would the radio in his car/apartment be linked to the radio in your car/apartment? I'm not sure whu uou would jave assumed that in the first place.

 

 

Keep in mind, if you're both in the same car, you hear the same radio station.

When you have your cellphone open, the area around the screen reflects the sun as you move. I noticed this while hopping on my BMX; not sure if it does this while walking or driving.

Just tested it and yeah they patched this. :(

 

Rockstar are f*cking arseholes for patching all the little things like this that have NO NEGATIVE bearing on the interaction between players in freeroam, but they leave things like the numerous wall glitches alone for players to grief others with.
