We got a rat. The GTAV spoiler and story thread. - The Bear and Badger

Rev

Feel free to chirp, sing and generally chit chat about anything to do with the story, missions, cheats, characters without fear of spoiler reprisal.

Heavy Voodoo

everyone dies at the end

Heavy Voodoo

I made that up.

[Deleted User]

Yeah but they do.

[Deleted User]

I made that up also.

I'm not going to play the story mode so I'll read this thread instead. Don't fail me.

Spoiler:

It might have just been me struggling on the missions where you have to nick something big (such as a garbage truck or a big rig) but I have found the best thing to do is nick it, move it out of the area and then get out. You can easily lose your wanted stars and the vehicle is then free to collect safely.

I must have lost around $75,000 stealing the fucking bore machine...

ShabbyMcCrabby

Ah, I chose the other option for that heist. When you replay heist missions from the menu can you choose the approach again?

So, uh, actual spoilers ahead.

I'm also wondering what happens when you choose the kill Michael or kill Trevor options instead of the third choice. I was hoping if one had to die it be Franklin. I got sick of all the dawgs and niggas.

Rev

I dunno. I'm not playing the game.

Heavy Voodoo

Look out for the random event on Little Bighorn Avenue, up in Franklin's original starting area. Help the boy get his bike back for an unexpected reward. Worth it!

Moto70

I loved the last part when Franklin, Trevor and Michael each go after a target. Also I am showing 68/69 missions completed, what have I missed?

Tempy

Anyone found any UFO parts or any scraps of the letter other than the one at the Cable car station?

beano

Yep.

There's a spaceship part by the bopters on top on Central Hospital. There's another by the alien welcome site.

There's a scrap in dignity camp, a lighthouse and who knows where else?

@moto70 I'm also rocking the 68/69. Speaking to Enigma, he took option A on the Big Score and I did B. Reckoning it's because ~~of A~~ I chose B on the big score as he too chose C for the deathwish as me. Generally *shrug*

@tempy, you could check here (scroll down for the map) http://socialclub.rockstargames.com/games/gtav/career/checklist

beano

@moto, the 69th mission is a lester one yo.

Moto70

I chose C (Deathwish) as well.

So to get the 69/69 I have to replay that mission and choose A? I am confused?

g.man

Don't think so mate. I chose C and have 69/69 missions completed.

There is a UFO part near the lake in the mountain to the East of the map (the high up lake).
There are a series of parrallel drainage pipes (3 or 4) that run up one side of the mountain side and down the other near the lake. The part is at the end of the pipe like it has been flushed through.

It's an assassination mission to be clear.

Clean up yo.

Ahh, cheers.

I'll not get on it until Thursday night now though.

beano

Yeah my time is limited with this now. Work, eh.

[Deleted User]

theres still a story type mission after the story......return to your trailer as trevor for a surprise.

also i saw a ghost and it disappeared leaving a blood stain!

ShabbyMcCrabby

I haven't spent much time with this since I finished it so I want to get back to it and find the secret stuff. I'll try and activate the No Country For Old Men random encounter so I can get the case. I'm guessing you will get chased by bounty hunters afterwards.

I love these mythbuster things too:

Matt_82

So what happens if you choose A or B?

That was ace

So cutscenes, were there any cutscenes in which you went 'erk' or felt what had gone on was a bit uncomfortable? I say this cause I was fine with all of them including the semi interactive torture scene except the one where when Trevor goes to his 'cousins' house and ends up in a standoff with the chick holdng a gun and the guy a knife. You dont know what happens but Trevor comes out covered in blood and i though 'fucking hell Trevor what did you dooooo'. Trevor's the boss man in this game though. I found it funny how women repeatedly fell for his 'interesting charm' is seemed.

And like others, i roleplayed, Trevor was the most amusing char to roleplay though, getting revenge on people who fucked him over (Hit him with their car etc) could get pretty creative, and i can say, worryingly, that i felt like i got a bit of Trevor style satisfaction from it

ShabbyMcCrabby

People die and you can't select them afterwards apparently. Interesting choice. Apparently you can choice those options without repercussions if you choose it from the in-game replay menu

ShabbyMcCrabby

I didn't think any of the cutscenes went too far or anything I just thought some of them were a bit bland. I think it was the direction of them. They were all quite plainly shot which is a shame considering how much the GTA games are in love with movies.
Being able to have proper depth of field would help though as it will make it look proper so maybe that will be fixed in the next-gen versions.

Also the animation was brilliant. Largely by hand too I think I read.

Could you find a source for this? I'll be very surprised if the animation wasnt touched up mocap, in the end though the animation was several different systems in tandem, im supposing some state machine blending many many animations together mixed with procedural mixing between that and possibly area specific ragdolling and IK for foot and hand placement. I'm assuming they're still using euphoria? That thing is the bees knees. Animations a pretty complex thing these days i guess, i don't think you'd see a pure 'cooked' animation outside of a cutscene

regmcfly

I'm assuming we all picked the third way right?

I meant in the cutscenes, source? Dunno, it was a month ago, I just read that a lot of it was hand-keyed as opposed to mo-capped, I could be wrong, but it sticks out as something I read.

Howdy, Stranger!
