Loving this Trevor get-up.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Thank god I full screen the streams and throw them to one of my other monitors.

Yup, fuck the chat. Never ever will i ever look at a stream chat for a game i can't wait to play and don't wanna know the story.

 

[seat]

Of course as soon as I tune into a stream the player is trying in-game websites. Sigh. I am amused by the middle-finger cursor hand, though.

 

[Arun1910]

Careful in the streams guys, some people are trying to spoil the story ending.

Thanks for the warning!

 

[BuggyDClown]

Wheres the current story stream? I want in. Never cared about spoilers in GTA, hell I've never even gotten halfway through a campaign.

 

[JokerAceX]

someone link the current streams please

 

[Sn4ke_911]

ok streamer just started a mission but he didn't want to do that ...will go free roam soon i guess.

 

[Quidam]

Loving this Trevor get-up.

Yeah, I'm thinking I'm gonna make Trevor look like a crazy hillbilly who wears equally crazy clothes, Michael is gonna be more low-key and smart looking, and I have no idea what to do with Franklin yet.

 

[Angelus Errare]

Does this have regenerative health? Just saw Trevor get shot by police, managed to drive away then his health was green again.

It's Trevor's special skill, he takes half damage when he's in rage mode and life regenerates while at the same time he does double damage.

 

[VelociMaster]

mission guy is changing channels can someone pm me new link

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Ok he failed the mission and will free roam now.

 

[BFIB]

OK. Happy with what I saw today. I'm done until Tuesday. Need to pick up a new dual shock though. Old one is worn out.

Regenerates to 50%, the rest is filled by drinking a Sprunk, grabbing a health pack etc

 

[SJRB]

Wait, did he just greet an NPC?

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Quote me to reveal good PS3 free roam stream.

 

[VelociMaster]

the guy that changed channels can i have the link...

he was doing story missions

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Cops are such buzzkills

 

[-Deimos]

Wait, did he just greet an NPC?

You can interact with NPCs by pressing right on the D-Pad. Nothing really happens though.

 

[Stuggernaut]

If this guy can get away from the police chopper he will be fine ;P

That thing is on him like glue!

 

[Sn4ke_911]

You can slide over objects!

 

[woen]

Both versions look very good. Everyone is going to enjoy the same experience.

 

[Big_Al]

You can slide over objects!

Yeah I had read that before but was so cool to see it in action

PS3 version is looking very nice indeed. I honestly don't think PS3 or 360 owners have much to worry about it.

 

[VelociMaster]

quote for a stream that's doing story missions.

story missions stream link?

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

Michael's voice actor sounds cool.

 

[matthieuC]

Michael's voice actor sounds cool.

He reminds me of ray liotta

 

[FreddieQuell]

story missions stream link?

it's offline now.

 

[SPACECADET]

Loving this Trevor get-up.

James Seth Lynch, is that you?

 

[Dodecagon]

Wrong thread lol

 

[VelociMaster]

it's offline now.

he said he was switching channels though

 

[Unspeakable Evil]

That was was a random event right? That was neat

 

[M.W.]

Don't these free roamers know there's multiple activities they could be doing? Not just shooting people and running from the cops?

 

[Big_Al]

Don't these free roamers know there's multiple activities they could be doing? Not just shooting people and running from the cops?

I think some of it might be hidden away under story progress as well.

 

[M.W.]

I think some of it might be hidden away under story progress as well.

Ahh, makes sense. I haven't seen one free roam stream do any of the activities in the game.

Well, I did see one guy playing the stock market. Bawsaq, lol

 

[SexyFish]

Does this have regenerative health? Just saw Trevor get shot by police, managed to drive away then his health was green again.

You will regen health up to 50%, after that you have to eat to bring it back to 100%

 

[kutthoat5150]

That was was a random event right? That was neat

Spoiler

the kidnapping?

yea that was awesome to bad he failed as a hero lol

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Is it just me or is the character switch faster on PS3?

 

[rallaren]

Quote me to reveal good PS3 free roam stream.

What the hell is going on with all the "f*ck me" and "f*ck me in the a*s"'s from NPCs? Just a bit off, lol

Is "Drinking In LA" by Bran Van 3000 in this game? (google did not say)

 

[M.W.]

Is it just me or is the character switch faster on PS3?

I think you're right.

 

[DukeBobby]

Is it just me or is the character switch faster on PS3?

I'm watching the stream, but I missed the switch.

Were Michael and Franklin quite close together?

 

[The Dear Leader]

Is it just me or is the character switch faster on PS3?

A little, but it's a lot slower than Rockstar lead on.

 

[Loudninja]

Is it just me or is the character switch faster on PS3?

Could be the distance?

 

[maneil99]

Is it just me or was the view distance fog really bad?

 

[petethepanda]

PS3 L1/R1 control mode confirmed, most excellent

 

[rocK`]

PS3 L1/R1 control mode confirmed, most excellent

Huh?

 

[BobTheFork]

You can map aim and fire onto L1 and R1! That alone makes this the greatest game of the generation. It is funny that it's called 'alternate controls'

 

[Krappadizzle]

Is it just me or was the view distance fog really bad?

It actually fits with the environment believe it or not. It's not always completely smoggy either, depends on time of day.

 

[ambar_hitman]

Any major performance issues with PS3 so far? I have mostly seen 360 version gameplay and it seems fine. I have ordered PS3 version so I hope it is not gimped in some way.

And the quick save actually works like a quick save, great job by Rockstar. Only Skyrim and Rage are the two open world games I played this gen on consoles which pulled off a proper quick save feature.

 

[Krappadizzle]

I went to bed about 3 hours into Setho's stream last night. It was the most entertaining one I'd seen yet. Does anyone have a link to an archive?

 

[Big_Al]

Huh?

The standard controls have fire weapon on PS3 on R2 which a lot of people hate (including myself). The alternate control scheme switches this to R1.

 

[Loudninja]

Man I love how alive this place is.
