Re: Grand Theft Auto V
I just got home, will be watching the Pens game tonight but I will snap the friends list around 9 to see when everyone is there and then I can just snap the hockey game when we are playing, love that feature.

Re: Grand Theft Auto V
After the connection snafus to start every evening, this continues to be the most entertaining thing I do online each week.
Swan dive 35 feet into a concrete platform? Check.
Accidentally using a non-silenced weapon in a stealth mission? Check.
Attempting to keep the helicopter semi-level for the gunners to shoot down pursuing choppers? Failing, but Check.
Pulling off a SEAL team-style raid with synchronized trigger pulls to stealthily wipe out a whole base---only to fail because one of us couldn't climb a mountain in the right direction? Check.
I still think the best part of it is that all four of us find ways to screw up a mission, and we keep learning and getting better with each failure. It's almost like Dark Souls with guns, and partners.

Re: Grand Theft Auto V
That was a blast.
If we can get the crew together again tonight , Im willing to miss some playoffs to finish that heist off.

I don't know how that happened, we were all going in the same direction and the next thing I know I'm all alone and didn't have time to backtrack to the other direction.

Re: Grand Theft Auto V
We all had enough screw ups to not point fingers. I just found it a funny moment, especially since we were all celebrating and digitally chest-bumping each other...only to get a failed message.vader29 wrote:TCrouch wrote: Pulling off a SEAL team-style raid with synchronized trigger pulls to stealthily wipe out a whole base---only to fail because one of us couldn't climb a mountain in the right direction?

I think my dancing-around-on-a-rooftop-and-alerting-the-last-living-guard moment was the snafu of the night. We should have had that thing beat ten times over.
However, I vote that next time we just run up the f'n street. I bet it's fast, and when I heard "a squad is incoming", my instinct was to get off the road. I never saw a squad, though.
Re: Grand Theft Auto V
I thought maybe we could take out that patrol car and use that to escape. May be difficult or impossible to do that and not raise an alarm though. I should be on later.

Whatever they did to Live for the One, reverse it. Fail.
Re: Grand Theft Auto V
I've had no issues...I've been online all evening, and I'm in GTAO now.

Re: Grand Theft Auto V

Re: Grand Theft Auto V
If I'm home in the evening, for sure. I'll hop onto the XB1 when I'm at home, so if you see me online, I am good to go.
Re: Grand Theft Auto V
Tonight is the night.

Re: Grand Theft Auto V
The game that just keeps on giving. Seriously GTA or Red Dead games will always be a day one purchase for me because of Rockstars continued support long after the games release.

Re: Grand Theft Auto V
I started playing through GTA V again on the PS4 after finishing MGS V. Just forgot what an incredible game world this is.
I was driving in the countryside and a guy on a motorbike was coming towards me, I accidentally flipped on my high beams and the blinding light made him swerve.
Shooting/combat could be way better and the story has the typical Rockstar issue of being several hours too long, but still a great game.

Re: Grand Theft Auto V
Such a great game. I think it would've been lauded much more if so many people didn't already have their minds made up about the series.Macca00 wrote:I started playing through GTA V again on the PS4 after finishing MGS V. Just forgot what an incredible game world this is.
