Yea it seems ok but I have been sidetracked by GTA
To be honest I haven't really gotten into it properly, I'm outside the city, but not far. I find the woman a bit annoying

Stick with it, it only gets better. The story and gameplay are both excellent. Definitely one of my top games will replay it soon.

Think I will wait for a price drop before getting GTA 5 especially with all the issues you guys are having. Expect it will be after PS4 is released before we see a good discount.

It's a Great game but sadly not a keeper for me...

Me neither. Mine went for a song......a Swan song.

A Swanny song.

Mooooon river

Well, I've just had my first taste of GTV online and it was the stupidest, most frustrating load of nonsense I have ever experienced. I've been playing the game in single player. Why on earth would I need to carry out a series of forced tutorials before I can invite or join friends? The same sort of tutorials I did with single player. And why would you have to switch passive mode off to rob the store, then get shot outside by some muppet who knows you haven't had time to turn it back on. Surely that is the whole point of passive mode, to protect yourself from the muppets? Why would I want to have to keep disabling it to interact with the missions? Have a word with yourself Rockstar North.

Anyway. After eventually cutting through all the carp (and it really is carp) I unlocked the ability to invite a friend to my game (whichever overpaid dipstick thought that should be an unlockable achievement needs a full frontal lobotomy) and that's when it redeemed itself.

My performance in stealing then wedging some rednecks 4WD pick up into a 3 storey scaffold, made me realise exactly what I could achieve with the share button if this game were to be released on the PS4. I then shot the pilot out of the police helicopter, watched his body fall to the ground and went looking for it, whilst my partner in crime mowed down scores more officers by doughnutting a bright orange metallic range rover.

Top sport.

I don't get the passive mode, surely in a multiplayer game one of the things you expect is other people to try and kill you?

I don't get the invite friends bit......Nelster don't have any friends only us on here

And he didn't invite me as he knows i would blow his head off

I don't think the mission based co-op seperates properly from the PvP element. I think that's why they incorporated passive mode, so you can still experience the open world and see other players racing around causing carnage, but not keep getting pulverised by them when you're not up for a fight. You spend most of your time running away otherwise.

But having to turn it on again to interact with a mission is stupid. I haven't come across a mission yet that doesn't require violence or the threat of it. That's what it's all about isn't it?

Let's make a date then bro, but you'd better not expect structured gameplay. If I can't jump off it or get it stuck somewhere it shouldn't be, I ain't interested. I am Maverick.
