How the hell do people find this stuff out so quickly?

 

[Caayn]

So we can expect aliens in a DLC package?

 

[Septimius]

How the hell do people find this stuff out so quickly?

Quantity. Millions of people are looking.

 

[Salvor.Hardin]

Quantity. Millions of people are looking.

Or more likely: Developer/Marketing team anonymously leak it on reddit.

 

[joffocakes]

How the hell do people find this stuff out so quickly?

I can't think of a single reason why someone fond of the Grand Theft Auto series would own a blacklight. Hmmmmmm.

 

[Ushae]

I don't even.. Rockstar are simply the best.

 

[Rawket Lawnchair]

Rockstar doing something (hiding stuff like messages or coordinates or whatever, in the game's paraphernalia) that was done back in the 90s = mindblowing.

Cool of them, but let's not forget it's a practice companies forgot during the 00s, and with the rise of DD.

 

[John Caboose]

Well I got there, I think... not sure really what I'm looking for.. but here is what I've found:

Spoiler

There was a $250,000 property to buy which gives you a sub at the end of the dock, looks like some missions as well, having a go at that now.

This sounds great.

 

[Tricky I Shadow]

I can’t for the life of me find it, but someone in the spoiler thread posted an in-game screenshot of ‘clues’ to some easter eggs on a wall. It looked like a picture of an

Spoiler

alien and a dinosaur egg

from what I can remember.

 

[Hedge]

What.. the eff. Seriously. What the eff. Who gets the idea of overlooking a new map from a game with UV light?

 

[CharmingCharlie]

I can't think of a single reason why someone fond of the Grand Theft Auto series would own a blacklight. Hmmmmmm.

As far as I can make out the guy that posted this on Reddit went to a midnight launch of the game. When you go to these midnight launches some places offer "freebies". In this case one of the freebies was an Ultraviolet Pen light.

Now I don't know about anyone else but I would be pointing the UV pen at everything just for shits and giggles and would've probably pointed it at the map myself.

 

[Fusebox]

Seriously. On par with the secret ending in RDR.

Oh my god, Rockstar.

What secret ending??

 

[Kenshin001]

Was reading the spoiler thread and there is a user made map showing a ton of really cool weird stuff to find.

 

[Lemonte]

It would have been awesome if no one had not found this and years later rockstar hints that there is hidden message in the map. Minds would have been blown.

 

[ViciousDS]

I wonder if the strategy shows it..... without the black light of course

 

[runningjoke]

What.. the eff. Seriously. What the eff. Who gets the idea of overlooking a new map from a game with UV light?

Is casemodding still a thing? Some people may have UV lights in their PC on their desk.

 

[Dennis]

So is this real or did EatChildren make it up?

 

[doemaaan]

Was anything else discovered?

 

[Omni]

Where the hell is it? I really can't find it. It's near the Army base, right?

 

[jaaz]

So... fricken... cool...

 

[TheContact]

That's awesome! Mine is hanging on my wall though

 

[Blue Ninja]

I'm at the spot of the map that says "They're here", but not seeing anything. It's up on a mountain.

Maybe I should wait until it's dark.

 

[USC-fan]

That is awesome.

 

[double jump]

well

Spoiler

there are aliens

in that side mission. Scared the phuk out of me not gonna lie.

 

[halfbeast]

I can't think of a single reason why someone fond of the Grand Theft Auto series would own a blacklight. Hmmmmmm.

interesting theory! I'm not fond of GTA and I own a blacklight!

 

[jacksepticeye]

I love shit like this haha

 

[Mr Touchdown]

Spoiler

I'm reading that off the docks, there is an alien spaceship underwater, found with sub. Anyone wanna look and see if it can be hauled up with the sub?

Makes me wish I'd bought the special edition

I was there at night time... Nothing.

 

[Mr Touchdown]

The "They're here" thing is a location of a spaceship part.

 

[Eleuin]

Seriously. On par with the secret ending in RDR.

Oh my god, Rockstar.

Wasn't much of a secret ending when its the proper ending...

Can open pic now, damn pc! Hmm wonder what it could mean!

 

[DualX]

No new updates/pictures?

 

[Krakatoa]

Wow I love these kind of Easter eggs.

Rockstar you just sold another copy!!

 

[Ithil]

 

[Raptor]

If it's an Alien Civilization Underground Base fully explorable I will buy it immediatly.

 

[Ahasverus]

This need to be cracked like yesterday. the same as the mount chilliad cryptic message.

 

[lilbaby Jesus]

This need to be cracked like yesterday. the same as the mount chilliad cryptic message.

Somebody please tell someone about this who's finished the game. I needs answers

 

[ExigentContact]

Didn't the Collector's Edition of Halo Reach have a hidden message of some kind taht was revealed with a UV light as well? Maybe people have just started doing the UV light thing because other games have done it in the past. Just a thought.

Yes, and so did BioShock 2.

 

[Poimandres]

If it's an Alien Civilization Underground Base fully explorable I will buy it immediatly.

Yeah, me too basically! I'm a sucker for aliens.

 

[Recall]

What secret ending??

Huge RDR spoiler.

Spoiler

you play as the son Jack Marston to finish the game. The game carries on past the "end"

 

[inky]

SO. MUCH. STUFF.

I'm still going through the story atm tho, about halfway through. Will leave the secrets and thorough exploration till after I'm done.

<3 this game.

Have you seen the pic on the wall inside the cable car station?

This has been cracked.

HUGE SPOILER

Spoiler

You have to get 100% completion, then use the buggy you get for collecting all the spaceship parts to go to the top of the mountain at night and honk 3 times or something like that. Click here if you want to see what happens.

For anyone holding out on spoilers.
It's not worth all the work is what I can say about that.

 

[Alcoholica]

Not really seeing anything exceptional there. Unless he cut the video off early?

Well, there might be more to it. It doesn't solve the 'riddle' at the top of the cable cart.

 

[Trogdor1123]

Ok guys, ive never played a GTA before. Is it really good enough to get into for a noob like me? Is it totally playable? Im a bit of a graphics person and the frame rate in GTA4 bothered me on PS3.

Hell yes. Frame rate is 30, sometimes lower though. On ps3 disc version I haven't seen it go below 28 yet

 

[Teknoman]

This game just keeps giving.
