How some LSPD Officers announce themselves as the SAHP, and vice versa.

Maybe they are state troopers *shrugs

I just remembered one of the biggest "doesn`t make any sense" things.

Wade found Michael in a phonebook directory?! A goddamn phonebook directory??!! How can some mentally challenged guy like Wade finds a guy who`s suppose to be under the federal protection in a goddamn phonebook?

Or better yet how did he know that Michael is married and has 2 kids? Does the phonebook also says if the person is married or how many kids they have?

"His name is Michael DeSanta, about the right age, married, two kids"

LOL

 

-Wade is seen to be stucked in the strip club after the mission Hang Ten like forewer. And the two sexy strippers are always touching him. How does that make sense? Why would 2 beautifull, sexy strippers who can get any man, touch some mentally challenged methead like Wade? And they even seem to be impressed by him. lol

-During the exile from LS, Trevor gets the msg from Frank about the O`Neills.

1. how did Frank even know the O`Neills came to Vespucci condo?

2. how did he know they were about to sens an RPG into the door?

 

-why is Frank giving a hard time to Michael in the FIB heist- roof approach? He seems pretty disgusted by Michael`s betrayal in NY. Which has some plot holes. Why would Franklin suddenly side with Trevor and feel so sorry for him when he knew Michael before Trevor and Michael was the one who introduced him to the bussines where he got more money in 1 heist than he ever did hustling?

Obviously since trevor owns the strip club he told the girls to keep wade distracted and cozy up to him uh-duhh.

I will spew off some off the top of my head.

 

 

When you start out all 3 are clean shaven. You can take one of them to get a hair cut. The barber will "cut" you hair, and you will grow a beard. By cutting it. Wha?

 

Or when in a cop chase they will be on the "we dont know where you are but we are looking" phase, with the cone of looking in front. And come right to where you are hiding. This happens in about half the chases.

 

How if you are being chased by the cops all you have to do is go home and take a nap and all if forgiven. What? So, because you were all tuckered out the cops forgive you because you were just cranky?

 

How about the army base? If you fly over it they "warn" you to turn around. But its not a warning. A warning is, turn around OR be shot down. A warning isint, turn around now AND STILL be shot down.

 

How the auto custom shop can do weeks worth of work as fast as you can click a mouse. I know it would take away from the game, but a paint job alone would take days if not weeks.

 

How NPC drivers ignore you for the most part. Ever been driving fast down a street and one of them pulls out in front of you? Did you really not see more, or are you not scripted to care? Or, when your on a bike and you hit them. Fly off the bike. And instead of caring, they run over your bike, possibly you again, and just drive off.

 

Ever try running, on foot, into a cop. Try it. Apparently thats attack of a police officer and you get 2 stars. You can easily get up to 6 cops shooting you. For running into 1 of them. On foot. Then you die.

 

The armor you use for the bank job in the sticks? Ya, woudent stop the bullets. Not all of them. Those suits are for BOMB disposal. Bombs are not the same as bullets. Even if they could, the army was there. They would have 50 cals. With armor piercing rounds.

 

I can go on and on and on.

 

Edit: heres a few more.

 

Franklings garage. Why is it so near baller territory? I feel like im gonna get jumped every time im going to get a car.

 

Luxury jets. Someone else mentioned theres no real place to fly to, and thats true. But isint the point of those jets is to be flown around by someone else? Wheres my personal pilot? And flight attendants?

 

What the heck happened to michaels boat? That never came back around. In the end i ended up buying him the best boat i could, that sail boat, because i could not help him get his boat back. I think he enjoyed it.

 

Whats up with the beards anyways? Ether your clean shaven, have some stubble, or your freaking ZZ top.

 

Buying cloths seems useless. Unless you want to spend time dressing them, they will never wear what you buy them. I can buy franklin all the suits in the world, but he seems happier in sweats and a tank top. So i would have to drive him back him and force him to wear what i buy him. More of a hassle. Why is buying cloths in the game if they wont wear what i buy them?

 

The radio. The freaking radio. WHy can i not turn off the radio while talking on my phone? Is that to complicated or something?

@Progeekzy tru lol I always thought we would get revenge for michaels yacht and it shouldnt have even been that hard to find. And I always wondered why their was so little facial hairs, especially for frank. His beards make him look wayyyyyy older than what he is. His face looks as smooth as a babys butt , I wish their was a chin fuzz option or even a mustache

Why cars are capped at 120mph. Not only does this piss me off in terms of how it degrades the realism, how it is another utterly confusing decision, and how it takes away the thrill of going - well - faster...

 

... but I also have a huge problem with their in-game website saying that the cars can go up to 240mph or whatever speeds they are. It is a blatant lie - and when these vehicles are so ridiculously expensive at times, and you have people buying shark cards with REAL money just so that they can afford these 'faster' cars... it's it just totally cheating the consumer?

How do the Lost recognise Trevor even if he's in a different car or wearing a mask. I know they're scripted to turn hostile if Trevor come's near them, but they wouldn't be able to recognise Trevor if he's in a disguise or driving anything but his Bodhi.

You know, the things that bug you, that you don`t understand or see any point in them. Whether be about the story, gameplay, characters or the music.

 

Mine are:

-why have random events scripted locations instead of random like in RDR? I know they still have to be scripted but at least their locations could really be random

-how the hell did Michael manage to get into the LS sewer in his truck quicker than Franklin and the crew on their bikes in the jewel heist?

-why do the characters or other NPC`s (cops) keep yelling when they`re out of ammo? "i need to reload!"

-why it is impossible to turn on Trevor`s special ability after cougar or dog jumps at you?

-why can`t Michael wear hats?

-why can`t Trevor buy normal looking shoes or snickers?

-how the hell none of the 4 tanks shooting at you in paleto heist can`t hit you when you follow the scripted route but they hit you instantly when going 100 yards out of the route?

-how on earth can you hear a car`s engine half of mile away when you zoom on it with your sniper rifle?

-why there`s no option to anchor your boat even tho the NPC`s siting in their boats along the coast seems like they anchored it somehow

-why the parachute always fails to open when jumping out of a plane in the ocean?

 

 

Name your things that bug you in V.

two things in gta 5 annoy me is the npc drivers that always cut me off in traffic, and cops that always seem to know where i'm hiding.

I guess it's like the Ballas in San Andreas being able to spot CJ from a mile away wearing a mask.

heres a copy/paste from a IGN page about leveling stats.

 

 

Shooting Improves accuracy, magazine capacity and improves reload time.

I can understand accuracy and reload time. But mag capacity? What the eff?

That`s about the same bullsh*t as with the heists crew. Cheap vs expensive.

 

Like when i hire a cheap guy for paleto score he will always be hit by a cop car but chef or packie never.

 

It really doesn`t make any common sense.

On PS3 Version 1.00, perhaps other Versions, too, you have to BUY the sh*tty Version of the Rhino Tank and have it in your D-Pad List of Items inside the Hanger. Yet, when I steal one from FZ like I did 3 times as Franklin and 1 time as Michael, it disappears.

 

So in other words, you can store one by buying it, or you can't store one at all.

 

Yeah, Rockstar Logic...One of the thousands of mystery's as to what they were thinking when they made this Game. Pathetic.

Maybe if you didn't play on version 1.00 that wouldn't be a problem.

What gives? Rhino Tank is even weaker on Patched Games. At least it stands half a chance on 1.00. So what? I gotta go steal one every time I want to use one. Sure why not. Piece of cake anyways, just annoying having to do it every time cuz of a flawed system. That's what Rockstar does best these days, just break the game with every Patch. It takes no rocket scientist to understand the reasoning behind staying on 1.00. I don't expect you to understand, though, and there is no use explaining anything to people with thick heads, either.

 

And as I mentioned, it might not even be a 1.00 problem. Just a GTA V problem. Cuz someone in the Special Vehicle Guide for V says you can't store it in the Hanger and best to use the Vanilla Unicorn parking spaces to do so. But I already have the Unique Snow Asea and Unique Space Docker stored back there so all 3 characters can use it, since T's Parking Spaces are available to M and F, as well.

 

Anyways, it's not my fault V is a flop and a broken mess.

It improves how much ammo you can carry, not the mag capacity. That's IGN's fault for hiring a bunch of morons that can't write.

Speeds are capped at the speed the game world can stream smoothly, and also for the fact that even though it's a large game map it's still a miniaturized world vs. reality. Roads and runways built for higher speeds would take too much area, and planes that flew too fast would be off the map in seconds.

 

When it comes to speeds, distances, and times, there are two scales: in-universe and real-world. In-universe is the imaginary world the story characters believe they live in — the world where Sandy Shores is hours, not minutes from Los Santos, the world where a day is 24 hours, not 48 minutes. Real-world are the actual measurements in scale with what is built in the game, the simulation the player objectively experiences. The real-world Los Santos and Blaine County is a little over 20 square miles landmass. In-universe it's as big as southern California. The in-game websites are in-universe and the information on them is fictional.

That is no excuse. The fastest car in San Andreas was the Infernus at 200 KM/H (or Hotring Racer at 210, not sure). In IV the fastest car was the Comet with it's maximum reachable speed of 190 KM/H. Now we have a super huge map that is larger than both of those combined, and what's the top speed? 200 KM/H. Maybe if the top speed was at least 280 KM/H it would have been fine, but no, R* decided to keep the ridiculously small top speeds on a huge map (far larger than those of NFS U2, MW, Carbon) and also dumb down the driving mechanics. So yeah, compared to previous GTAs and other open world racing games, it sucks. So much for being the most ambitious game, when it fails miserably in every gameplay department.

I really don't buy the 'world stream smoothly' argument. If you activate the slidey cars cheat, you can bypass that speed and the world is fine. This is also the case right after coming off of Franklin's special ability. The game can handle it - hell it handled in last gen. If they wanted the world to feel larger, they should have used a better map design - a better use of mountains - don't use a straight highway. Capping the speed of the supposed fastest cars in the game so that they're no faster than your ordinary car is not the way to do it.

In the mission Hood Safari, when you escape using the jet skis, keep following Trevor or Franklin (depends upon whether you are Franklin or Trevor, just chase the other one, whoever you are). Then he will go and bump into a cargo ship and he'll keep driving forward. If you switch now, bang, Trevor/Franklin is somewhere else!!! Then who was that whom we played with???? Found it today and looked really hilarious as after switching Trevor said, "The life of a gangbanger."

How the hell did Michael know what Norton had ordered him to do after knocking him out with the baton?

 

The deaths of Johnny and Trevor.

 

How does Michael gets along with Franklin so quickly while stealing his yellow jeep at the same time?

 

Who's the idiot that wrote the relationship between Franklin and his aunt?

 

Why is Karen still working with the IAA even after retrieving her life back in IV?

 

Why won't the chinese gang come after Trevor in ending B?

Peds and traffic that seem unable to see you in any way shape or form. Even if you are driving at speed down a green light you will have every bit of traffic possible pull in front of you, swerve into you and even ram you head on.

 

Peds seem to be totally f*cking blind and unable to move, even when you are hammering the horn and trying to get them to move so you DON'T have to run them down and get stars.

Name your things that bug you in V.

Kinda centering on some of your issues.

 

2. He was already heading that way before Franklin even got into the sewer.

3. So that his fellow mates know to cover him.

4. I don't really see that being an issue.

5. Michael has a different taste of clothing than the other 3 characters.

6. Hipster.

7. Tank's cannons are supposed to be slow and sluggish.

9. They haven't anchored it, they just stopped dead.

10. Limits.
