Â <-- click on 'spoiler' to show/hide the spoiler Has anyone gone about salvaging the wreckage of the Merryweather plane you crash into the Alamo Sea during that brilliant crop duster mission? If so, how did you go about it? Â [close spoiler] ");document.close(); Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members JNLister Posted October 1, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted October 1, 2013 Is there anywhere in the game (rather than just looking online) that tells you which characters can buy which business, other than actually visiting them?

windoesnot Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 As expected, the online mode isn't working. Can't join any sessions and if I make a solo online game it fails as soon as the first automatic mission is started. Patience will be needed for this before it works well.

Loki Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 I feel fucking sick. I spent about 100k pimping out the most gorgeous Ferrari, drove it back to Michael's house, and just before I got to the garage it cut to a cutscene and I lost the car, and all the money I'd spent on it. Â They HAVE to sort that shit out, that sucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members FLips Posted October 1, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted October 1, 2013 The online is abysmal. Totally understand that servers will be overloaded and there'll be some issues to iron out, but nothing works. It's fucking shocking.

Moderators Astro Hollywood Posted October 1, 2013 Author Moderators Share Posted October 1, 2013 (edited) C'mon, everyone knew it would be down for the first few days what with a couple of million people DDoSiNg it and all. This is a thing Rockstar plan to keep people playing forever, so a shonky first few days, when they even said as much on their own site, are no cause for internet rage.

CAREBEAR LUVVA Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 No online joy here either - it either freezes on the character creation screen, or if I manage to get past that it freezes up when the cars are driving down the road a few seconds into the intro. Ah well. Today might be more productive than I thought it was going to be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Bus Surfer Posted October 1, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted October 1, 2013 I seem to be stuck in a glitch when trying to find the 'Race Trigger' marker which doesn't seem to exist.. I can walk around and shoot up some shit, but not much else. Seems a few people have encountered this too. Â Just checking out other forums and laughing my tits off at some peoples reactions. Lots threatening to trade the game in already! Berks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members FLips Posted October 1, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted October 1, 2013 Yeah the Race Trigger thing was what finally made me turn it off. I just wanted to free roam, not be forced to do some shit tutorial mission. Then it never worked anyway, and you can't press start to try and replay it or anything.

Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted October 1, 2013 Moderators Share Posted October 1, 2013 (edited) Anyone who doesn't keep a few save files and constantly rotate on them is a mug.  Should you have to in an ideal world? No. But anyone who has played a GTA, or indeed any other openworld, game before should know that glitches and breaks are bound to happen.  I had to do a re-do when the first mission with Trevor bugged out on me so I had to load up on the save and SPOILER - Highlight the black box to read take those Lost bitches out again .  In other news, I fucking adore the grenade launcher. So much fun. I used it for that first assassination, too, where you SPOILER - Highlight the black box to read execute pharamceutical CEO as he comes out of his hotel. I failed to get gold because I didn't get "sniper" bonus which is fucking lame, because my method of using the launcher to completely take out both cars was way cooler    Edit: Oh, my bad. I didn't realise it was an online mission you were talking about. Edited October 1, 2013 by Chest Rockwell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelEdge Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Just joined up to the Cuckolders. I'm not too experienced with online gaming but thought I'd give it a go with GTA5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slapnut Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Social Club doesn't like me at all. First of all, I haven't been able to save photos since I got the game, just keeps giving me and error message, and now it won't let me join the Cuckolders even though I thought I'd already joined. It keeps telling me the group can't be found . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members JNLister Posted October 1, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted October 1, 2013 Guardian has a techy piece on why online game launches are so hard to operate. http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2013...s-server-issues Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAREBEAR LUVVA Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 A slightly questionable issue seems to have come up regarding people quitting games early. Leaving jobs early gives you a bad reputation, to the point where eventually the game will only match you with other "bad" players. Which is fair enough, but every time I've started a job (four or five times now) the server has either timed out or just disconnected halfway through and I've ended up back on regular GTA 5. Then a box pops up with a warning about the bad reputation thing. But it's not my fault! I don't want a bad reputation for getting kicked out of the game! I know they'll be working to fix a lot of things at the moment, but I really hope this is on the list somewhere because it definitely needs some attention.
