I'm getting really ****ed. I can't move my character at all online. I have I quit and replay to move him. Complete a mission and again can't move. Getting irritated fast.

check rockstars support page and sub for updates. taken from their R* twitter

I can't even update to the latest patch to try playing online. Just get a black screen.

If you're on Xbox, clear the system cache. This will allow the patch to install correctly

Anyone had their chars deleted? my brother in law had his deleted today, he put a ticket in and they told him how he must log out to make sure it saves...

 

It's not like he levelled it all in one session, this is over a week or so

 

Edit: Wait, i logged off to help someone cap arena's in wow and come back and mine is gone too! - not happy

I lost mine yesterday, had it level 14.  Lost the character, but not the cash luckily.

 

Edit:  But hey, now my single-player characters are invisible.  Awesome.

After doing a mission with friends today we all went back to free roam and for some reason I was about 10 times bigger than I should of been like a giant, but the game wouldn't let me walk around, just stood there on the spot.

 

LOL, maybe next time you can move around and pretend you're Godzilla and destroy LS?

It's weird that they are having so many problems getting this right considering that while being on a bigger map and having a few more features, GTA V Online is basically the same kind of online experience as Red Dead Redeption.

 

I mean, it's not as if this was the first time they released something similar.

 

 

PS: also some of the crew stuff on the Rockstar Games Social Club isn't working either, and I don't see how that'd be so hard to get right.

We made a crew emblem with the designer and published it yet it shows as a broken image everywhere but on the editor itself.

I bought it for ps3, played half an hour, and didn't really like it. Am I the weird one here? I'm not even sure what part I didn't really like. Last similar open world game that I played was the sleeping dogs, and I had loved that one.

 

GTA V doesn't have a great beginning, IMO. The robbery scene is OK but not all that exciting and after that it has a somewhat slow and directionless pace until the plot builds up.

In comparison Sleeping Dogs is more simple as a whole but the pace is a lot more constant.

 

So no, it's not weird that you didn't like the first half an hour, but that doesn't mean you won't be enjoying the game a lot better later on.

You didn't like the game period, or just MP? If the former, who knows. Maybe just state of mind. I think this is worlds better than Sleeping Dogs, tho not as good as GTA IV. Everyone's different.

 

I didn't even try MP yet. I had loved GTA 3, never played 4 properly though.

I bought the game digital anyway, so it's not like I can return it. I will give it some more time this weekend and hopefully the story will pick up.

It's a good thing I do not have that much interest in the MP portion I suppose. Still absolutely loving the SP, think I am at 35% or something along those lines.

Just a quick question about the SP

Are the movie studio  missions, car repo missions (the 5 cars for that one rich idiot) part of the main storyline, or just alternate side missions?

I prefer to progress the main storyline along, and believe those missions above are part of it, but I am not 100% sure they are.

 

This will be the game I just keep visiting over the next 6 months it looks like, and one of the main reasons I will keep my PS3 hooked up once the new consoles hit, until I finally beat it one magical day.

RDR was very much the same.

I might be wrong but I think every mission that doesn't have a ? in the map (either a big one or a small one next to a capital letter) is a main storyline mission, even though some of them might seem only tangential to the actual main story.

      Get $50 of aloSIM Mobile Data Traveler eSim credit for just $24.97 by Steven Parker Today's highlighted deal comes via our Apps + Software section of the Neowin Deals store, where you can save 50% off aloSIM Mobile Data Traveler Lifetime eSim Credit: Pay $24.97 for $50. Stay connected affordably in 120+ countries/regions with your own lifetime eSIM! An eSIM is a digital SIM card. It's basically just mobile data. Once it's activated on your device, it can connect you to data networks in other countries – giving you an internet connection with NO roaming charges. With aloSIM, you can load prepaid eSIM data packages onto your phone, tablet, or computer. Your lifetime eSIM never expires, so it's yours forever and there are never any monthly charges. You'll get $50 in eSIM data credit, which is almost always enough to cover all your data roaming needs for a full year. But if you run out of data, you can always top up your lifetime eSIM and stay connected internationally. Pay $24.97 for a lifetime eSIM with $50 in travel data credit Use your eSIM to join data networks in 120+ countries Install your lifetime eSIM on a compatible device to roam on local data networks Your lifetime eSIM never expires, and can be topped up with more data anytime Many data packages cost as little as $4.50 and last 7 days. Depending on the package you choose, the length of time varies. Good to know Length of access: lifetime For NEW customers only Instant digital redemption Once you add your $50 credit to your aloSim account you have up to 12-months to use it — after that your credit will expire When you pay for a data plan you also get a free phone number (via Hushed) for the same duration of your plan that was purchased - IE 7 day eSim plan gives you a free 7-day phone number Purchased coupon must be redeemed and used within 12 months This deal is not stackable (one offer per aloSIM account) A $4.50 data package will last 7 days The data DOES expire, and you WILL NOT have any leftover data for your next trip unless it takes place within the validity period. While the eSIM never expires, the actual data package is only valid for the length of time stated at purchase (i.e. seven days after activation, 30 days after activation, etc.) So if you buy a seven-day package and only use a tiny bit, that package is still going to expire after seven days. Access options: mobile (check compatibility) Max number of device(s): 1 Updates included Here's the deal: This aloSIM Mobile Data Traveler eSim $50 Credit normally costs ... $50, but it can be yours for just $24.97 for a limited time, a saving of $25 (50% off).
