yep one thing I miss about about UK, fast Internet along with walking the dog through the woods. But lifestyle here makes up for it :) Will go to bed and configure it in the morning. Want to see if I can run it at 6k x 1080 in surround.

Oh piss off :)

Im happy with 1080p. Dont have the room for three monitors.

Me too. I'm just pissing about :). I don't really get excited about the uber graphics; just glad I'm playing PC games again after many years of being apart.

I usually start up in story mode, then create a friend only game.

Make load times much shorter, and as i have everyone in both my crews on friends everyone can join :D

You can join other peoples heists from lvl1.

Just need to either respond to a open invite or a friends invite to a heist. They are by far the quickest way to level.

I'm not even looking at multiplayer yet. I don't think I will be able to either, with my shitty connection. What's an acceptable connection for online mp nowadays anyway?

stable mostly, speed isnt that big an issue in-game especially if you play a private handful of people

First installed it on the regular disk, works good but someone mentioned it benefits from being installed on an SSD, which is the system disk, so instead of downloading and installing it again, i moved the entire folder, created a 'junction' using /mklink via command prompt, fingers crossed this works out.

Shit didn't work. Couldn't just copy the whole installation and run the installer since there 'wasn't enough space'. And if the download speed off of rockstars servers could be a bit more stable instead of either 200 kb/s or 12 mb/s. Fuckers

Is real mod support coming or do we just have to wait until they stop updating it?

Finished the main missions and did all the side quests (bar those in spoiler)

Outstanding game, really enjoyed every moment of it. Still plenty of things to do, jumps, collectables and getting a few golds in mission replays etc and generally just pissing about.

Got around 20 mill per character now so going to invest in companies and do the financial market manipulation missions.

I did those spoilered things during the game and I have to say I'm a bit disappointed with how much stuff there is to do after you finish the story. Even little things like taxi driving or those great truck driving (or ambulance/fire/etc) missions from San Andreas seem to be absent. I find myself just driving around, helping out occasional blue spots when they pop up on the map. I'm at ~80% completion and I really don't know what else there is to do (apart from fly under bridges and jump stuff). I bought that 6 wheel Dubsta and drove up the mountain, I bought the Buzzard helicopter and failed miserably at aiming at anything. It's not got nearly as much "come back and just fuck about a bit" appeal as I hoped it would have.

The story was fantastic though, I have been through and done quite a few of the missions again (a feature that I definitely approve of).

5 Total.

Fleeca, Prison, Labs, Series A and Pacific Standard


Finished them all on hard, sadly the host made a mistake and fucked up the ordering for the last mission so we didn't get our bonus :( Oh well of we go again....

Purchased a Buzzard littlebird with the final mission payoff, everything is alot easier now :p

im on my 2nd playthrough and already found some stuff i missed the first time round also making the most of the stock exchange this time as i definately didnt invest properly (you really can make some insane money if you invest correctly) first time and i know i could have made alot more cash to play around with once ive done main story. im actually really looking forward to getting the main story out of hte way so i can concentrate on getting the collectibles and other things :)
