[Official] Grand Theft Auto IV


Recommended Posts

I suggest after you complete "That Special Someone" mission, saving your file twice. As the next missions vear in two different ways (the last 3), so you can play both missions on each side.

As for me, time to knock these last three out.

@echo:

Did you kill Drako? I did, badass execution.

The one thing I hate about GTA 4:

Those damn chase down and kill missions when people are on motor bikes and you can't outrun them in any car until you get their path known and cut them off early. Those are such a *****!, I hope they don't bring those back for GTA 5.

So if you beat the game read the spoiler below.

Okay, I have two problems. I'm doing the 'Deal' part where you end up chasing Dimitri via boat. I fall off the helicopter get in the boat and make it go as fast as I can. The problem is I can never catch Little Jacob's helicopter. I get like 5 feet away from marker, then he pulls up, ending the mission for me. Now it's starting to get damn annoying, as this keeps happening. I can catch up to Dimitri's heli, but once Jacob's shows up I can't get close to it at all. Is it just pure luck or is there some secert way to give the boat a boost I don't know about?

Saving your file twice? How do you do that?

Might want to highlight my post :D

lol Dirty real dirty.

You can scratch my above post, final was able to do it and finished the game. Did the helitour achievement and working on my friends, getting there like up to 90% for that achievement. Only guy is sitting at 42% so I got a way to go with him, and he's annoying. :(

Done already!?!? I got the game like 3 days early and I'm still only about 50%. What, were you playing it 24/7?

^ No.

The clear downfall of this game is the online capability, or lack of. If you manage to connect to the server you join with about 3 others. No fun at all.

8 / 10 imho

Really? playing the X360 version here and I find a game instantly with plenty of players..

Some things I thought, while playing, should be included in GTA 5.

Graphics - Alot of the time, the graphics are either too bright, or too dark. Adjusting the settings on display do seem to help, but I find im spending more time on that screen then playing the game for what it is. Rockstar need to just tone down those reflective surfaces during the day and lighten up the dark areas just a tad.

Audio - This part of the game is perfect, just continue what is allready there in this department.

True HD - This game looks great. Theres no denying that. But for us PS3 owners, and im sure some Xbox users too, we want BETTER. Next generation gaming needs next generation graphics to compliment it. For GTA 5, I hope 1080p or at least, true 720p support is available.

The shop names - Why arn't they using amusing names anymore? I remember spending hours my first time playing GTA 3 walking the streets and just reading the ingame adverts and hilarious shop names.

Multiplayer - Only way Rockstar can improve is to bring this game into the MMO world. My thoughts for this would be have two or more rival families, or ethnic groups battle it out large scale in a city as big as LC.

A really cool feature would be to have your eyetoy take a series of facial photos of you, and create a character based on you and have it part of the game. This would be mainly for the MMO version, but damn that would be uber cool.

Feel free to add to this GTA 5 wishlist or create a new thread for it.

Got a question here.

I'm currently at 43% Through the game and 18 Hours played - I unlocked the third island a few missions ago and got Packie's brothers as missions right now.

How far am i from the end? Will i also be able to do the 30 Hour Completion like this, i am also focusing on keeping relationships above 90% ( All of them are at 100% right now ).

Also, when does the real missions start? The game is so damn easy, It's getting on my nerves.

    • Nvidia is your issue more so than linux itself. I did used it for a while with an old 1060 3gb, but using propietary drivers was kind of messy.

    • BATorrent 3.0.3 is out.
    • The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
