How many mbs will Single-Player DLC be?

 

Close to 1gb? or 500mb

Edit: @Sangers

Depends on what type of player you are. If you do missions a lot, the Buzzard maybe be a better choice. Is fast and it can, well... Fly, so is a better option overall because you can get from one side of the map to the other in a relative short time.

Even you play in Free Roam a lot more and enjoy Off-Roading, you already have the Liberator in your main char so I'll go with the Buzzard.

I'm torn: for my second character, should I get a Buzzard or a Monster Truck?

 

Buzzard would help out with Missions and free roam things like assassinations and crate drop hunting.

 

Monster Truck is soon to not be available. Though if I really wanted to use it, I could just swap characters to my 1st character.

 

Thoughts?

 

Buzzard.

I doubt anyone knows. They haven't even released any information about story DLC.

Is there a way to take pictures in race by glitch or something?

What does the star rating mean on your profike? And how do you get stars?

(On forum)

Stars are users rating. 1 star is the lowest, 5 stars is the highest and the rest in between.

 

Stars are given by other users who rate you from 1 star to 5 stars.

 

Also as this is a Forum question, best to ask here next time in the off-topic section: http://gtaforums.com/topic/715591-have-a-question-v3/

I've always wondered, what happens when everyone in the lobby leaves, except me. I'm playing, not doing anything special, just driving around, when suddenly everyone leaves. What's up with that?

You lost connection with the lobby and everyone disconnected from you, but it says everyone left.

 

Essentially it's a connection drop on your internet, enough to boot you from the session but keep you online in a lobby by yourself.

[DaTwista]

I've had a brief look around and cannot see anyone else complaining about this issue.

 

I seem to be getting the saving failed error all the time when I exit a mission or DM. It will constant display until about 10 minutes later until SAVE SUCCESSFUL appears.

 

Been happening a few days now and thought it would go away but my progress isn't being saved even after the save successful error. I'm busy working on my weapon tints and busy tracking my progress and the count is reverting back to what it was even after the apparent save successful.

 

Other than that, my gameplay is normal with the odd connection error here and there.

I suspected it was my crappy connection. Thanks.

I'm creating a race right now.

Did the class Vans got removed? I'm not able to select of them

 

 

Edit: changed the grid and now they're possible

Is there a crew out there that can cater for an intelligent player, someone tactically minded, interested in finding their true self with like-minded individuals? Has a great leader with greater philosophies, and the potential to rival any one crew in the entire state? Also in the early stages of supernova so that I actually have a shot at promotion?

 

Yes, check out TORO INDUSTRIES

Get both. Buy the buzzard now, use it to do "mixed up with coke" and you have time to save for the liberator before it's gone. Using the buzzard on hard this mission takes around 3minutes for $13500 so you could grind it for a few hours and have enough for the truck. Have your cake AND eat it mate.

Why do people keep calling it a lobby? It's free roam, it's the main game. If you're not in it, you're on a mission, srurvival, deathmatch, race, etc. It's not a lobby, okay? A lobby is that thing you wait in while the host is inviting people.

[CrazyDog150]

I need help.

I have the problem,that I can't host missions on my first Character.It zooms out,then right back in and I'm stuck.

It's not a problem with my Connection, because I can host missions on my second Character.

 

What should I do?Contact the support?Wait till maybe they fix it?

 

EDIT:I can host missions but not RR.Anyone else have the same problem?

Because you press Post twice, usually. If you're not sure whether your post went live, copy the text and reload the page.

Most likely your connection, or do I dare mention FA Lobbies?

I wonder why R* Scrapped some content that was in the GTAO trailer
These t-shirts @ 1:41 didn't make it into the final game while they look decent

Seems Rockstar took out most decent stuff

has parachuting always scored you 0points for missing the landing? never noticed this BS before, have I just never missed the landing previously?

[MythicRare]

It's not a lobby, it's called free roam. The lobby is the thing you enter when the host of a deathmatch is inviting people.

[GIRR]

Yes. It tallies the points all the players collected and licks the player. If you miss the ring you're docked points, hit the outter part of the rings you get some not a lot, you get the most if you through the middle of the ring.

I've suffered with this periodically since launch although it was never so prolific before 1.15.

Probably because R* intended FR to effectively act as the lobby -- i.e. you go there to meet other players whom you will then enter events with. I'm guessing that was the motivation behind the in-game job beacons anyway... Only they became just another failed concept in GTAO as there is no way for multiple players to enter a job through one of those markers so there is no advantage to them over the jobs menu in the pause screen really.

 

For what it's worth, I would agree that a lobby is a screen where you're waiting for a session to begin.

I can understand loosing some, but all? is that really necessary?
