Vehicles have less polygons if you've not entered it yet. I noticed this when requesting a vehicle a while back. Just look at the wheel and wheel arches before first getting in a vehicle. Straight lines are obvious. The vehicle smooths out when you get in it.

This game is so jammed into the last-gen consoles' specs (IE: RAM) that anyone saying it's not worth buying it again is going to have their minds blown Nov 19th, I reckon. There'll be an Adder in every traffic jam.

that the marksman riffle is a sh*t sniper riffle, i noticed that when chasing a shark (SRIV Term) with the RH8 and then tried sniping the driver to get trevors meth and gave up and gone to look for a boat to have a better chance of killing em

You just suck at using it. I killed three NPC's in a Gang Attack in a row with it.

I love the new DMR. Sure, it isn't the most powerful but what it lacks in power, it more than makes up for in versatility. I find myself using it more than I should.. And have to remind myself to whip out the old heavy sniper for the extra long range stuff. In fact, I use the DMR when I should be using an assault rifle.

 

Soo... I noticed that the marksman rifle the best dlc weapon we've had so far (excluding the firework launcher)

Yep.

Also its great when you test a new paintjob in SP and want to "look closer" without sacrfising the ability to walk around. IMO all the snipers are great, they just need to be used right.

 

Normal Sniper: Silent killer.

Heavy Sniper: Loud destroyer.

Marksman Rifle: In-between, better range than assault rifles and the only sniper that can rapid fire.

I've also noticed that GTAF seems to crash more than GTAO..

(don't hurt me mods)

Its under maintenance methinks.

I just realized that the insurance lady FLO is the same voice on the phone for Mors Mutual, and also the voice on that Flo commercial on the gta v radio. (I forgot which station it is.)

 

Snip:

 

I found out after the last patch that if you drive Anna to Martin's in Cleaning The Cathouse, if you hit another car or a wall/etc. she speaks in Lester's voice!

 

It is only when you deliver her to the house that the voice is actually of 'Anna' (or rather the actor who plays her anyway) :santa:

 

It is pretty funny, check it out yourselves or I could post a link to a YouTube video if requested.

Did you know you can dupe tanks? Get a cargobob, ask for your tank to your favorite Pegasus spot, then just drop it to someone in the lobby, and in just minutes get the message from Pegasus saying they have moved your vehicle back to storage (but they havent), so call a tank again and do all the steps again. Idk if it was already known but found it really fun yesterday

It isn't. It's an FPS game that is mentioned and shown in the game - that's all.

 

Next you'll be saying that there are hints we're going to be playing 16-bit arcade games soon.

The Liberator can drive in some shallow rivers and ponds, a lot higher than most cars..

Vehicles with snorkels (MW Mesa, Dubsta, etc.) can be nearly completely submerged and still continue driving.

One of the last things I've noticed is that the cops sometimes react according to the weapon you pull out: "Is that a rocket launcher?", "ROCKET LAUNCHER!!!", "he has a minigun!"

 

Also, at higher wanted levels, they stop talking and use hand gestures to communicate with eachother. I noticed this when I got five stars and was hiding in the construction site at Alta. After I killed those noisy cops (Don't ask me how they got there.) then the SWAT came and they did gestures at eachother.

And after that the pursuing chopper flew at different altitudes to search every floor. It felt very realistic, very weird ...

Acceleration bro. Every other super car, minus the Vacca, has superior acceleration to the Adder.

I've only just noticed that you can rotate armour whilst buying it in Ammunation. As soon as I did it I looked at the bottom of the screen and it says it, right there. I guess I'm normally in a hurry in that place, as I know from experience that sometimes people kill you whilst you're shopping.

You can't open up the Quick Menu whilst in a helicopter.

it means that's the price to pay to compensate adder's top speed ( thus , meaning weakness of vehicle as well )

i wouln't prefer adder as it's diffcult to control handling than entity XF ( but adder is durable than entity XF , being able take more sawn-off shotgun than entity XF )

Noob that I am, I just enjoyed watching a car catch fire and blow up after parking it on top of one of the night-time bonfires on Vespucci beach. lol

 

I also don't remember seeing any GTA Mythbusters talking about how tires "pop" or explode a while after a car catches fire. Always fun.

You can stand on the side of the cargo Bob and not fall off

I've just discovered this morning that you can buy shoes at Ammunation...most of you probably know this and even more probably don't care...I don't even care apart from the fact that I never knew this until just now.

 

I've also recently discovered that you can view the whole map when inside your apartment rather than just seeing that useless interior map.

 

Also a couple of weeks back someone mentioned in a thread that they hate having to go into the pause menu to take off a gps that they were not using...until I told them that you can select "none" in the quick menu.

 

Has anyone else recently discovered something that may be of some use to me or anyone else that doesn't know about?

umm... haha omg wow that was probably the first thing that i knew about gtaV

ong i didnt know you can do that.. i just tried it out it works :) Jkay :p

speaking about cops and the whole gtaV thing, imagine a prison system and being able to rescue your fellow prisoners? awesome huh?

did u have friends over and roast mashmallows on the burning rubber and steel? perfect romantic bonfire :p

I've seen this in SP, never in online. It's rare to see even 2 in a car online.

why does that look so smexy?!

Has anyone seen this before? A guy spawned in the back seats on a 2 door. He was stuck in their so I decided to drive him around

in Single Player or Online?

practice makes perfect

apparently you can gas yourself out with engine fumes if you idle in a garage with car running!, heres link to that and a few others http://www.gta5cheats.com/easter-eggs/#exhaustfumes

Wow thats pretty stupid but very hilarious at the same time.

I rode out into the sea in a submarine to survive a 9k bounty. Normally I wouldn't wait out a bounty but I was working on my laptop so I figured i'd just dive down and sit it out in the background on my tv.

 

Anyways I survived it and then called the Merryweather boat to pick me up. I'd always just shot the guy and stole the boat so I decided to set a way point and let him drive me there instead.

 

Turns out he won't take you to the way point like the helicopter pilot will. He just takes you to the nearest shore.

 

Not groundbreaking but something I learned today.

wow sound like a ripoff

 

so i was doin trash talk online with my friend and we see a random npc drive into a tree and then blow up, bruh, is that normal?

The thing about duping tanks also seems to work with the Buzzard.

 

I left my Buzzard while hiding out. I got the message it had been returned to storage. Then the guy who'd pursuing me in an unarmed helicopter landed on the rooftop where I'd left it and was suddenly in a Buzzard. No warning it had been stolen; to the game, that Buzzard didn't exist. To me, it did, especially when I started getting rockets fired up my arse.
