Speed Dial on Phones

[igotskiz]

Like topic and poll says, do you think there should be speed dial on phones?

 

It gets frustrating when you have to call someone ASAP and you have to scroll through countless names of people you don't talk to anymore (Simeon, Gerald, Fufu, Martin, Ron, Bull Shark Testosterone guy, extreme sports guy, 911, etc).

 

A speed dial option could be reserved for the bottom right space that is empty on your phone that could be used to call contacts such as Lester, Merryweather, Pegasus or your Mechanic in a hurry. Or make it call the last person you contacted.

 

I don't know. It'd make use of the extra space on your phone.

you're that lazy op?

 

don't you know pressing left or right in contacts scrolls faster?

 

i mean, you're nitpicking at best here.

 

and isn't the phone filled in online? the empty space you mention is on the single player phone so your idea won't work.

Perhaps, a speed-dial option can be useful. Don't just throw his idea away so soon. He brings up a good point because there needs to be more customization options for the phone.

 

But maybe perhaps there doesn't need to be a speed-dial option. Maybe some of the contacts can be less useless? And maybe there can be an option to filter friends from randoms in the phonebook. Maybe an option to keep random players out of my contacts. I don't talk to them. I might text them for some good o'l trash-talking fun but I mean, does there really need to be 15 people in the contacts list? Why can't there be an option on the phone's springboard to go straight to GTA contacts, or go straight to Player contacts?

 

And why is Dom in my phone? What purpose does he serve? Why is Brucie in my phone? Why is Gerald, Lamar, Simeon and Ron in my phone when I can just use the Joblist to select their jobs, (Not like I'm going to, they all pay jacksh*t, except Ron at times).

 

I don't ever use BST from Brucie. (Who does?)

 

I don't ever call Lamar for a mugger (He's useless!)

 

If I could delete contacts.. Boy, where would I start.

 

Mechanic, Pegasus, Merrweather, MMI, and most important and above all others, Lester - All the contacts I need, all I call.

nitpicking

 

learn to press left or right if you want to scroll through contacts faster

 

this is not a priority nor that important

 

 

obviously R* wanted the phone to be a key resource

 

the joblist wasn't always there you know...

 

admit, you're just bored sh*tless because we haven't had the latest reskin&cut content dlc to apease you that why you're entertaining silly ideas

 

are you guys so lazy you can't press a button a few times?

Alright. Alright. You win.

 

But hey, the joblist is there now. I see no reason half of these contacts should still be in my phone.

That is a great idea to have a link to a shorter people we frequently call list. Also have the option for list order so we can have the mechanic,for example,first on the list. My speed list would be mechanic,Pegasus,and Lester.

 

This game needs all the additional customizing of inventory and items lists as Rockstar can code. Stuff like hats,glasses,and weapons. Maybe add closet storage in the apartments and houses.

You know what would be an actual good idea?

 

A block button

 

STOP CALLING ME RON!!!!!!!!

I would love speed dial. I don't know how many times I've gotten killed trying to call Lester.

If reading entire posts instead of the first sentence of each one is too hard, mabye an online forum isn't the right place for you.

Then explain to me what's in the bottom-right corner of the phone. I can't see it on my television screen for some wierd reason.
