RIPPA Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 So we all have one year now until we all leave and Stout is wondering where all the white dots have gone 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 We go back about 200 pages, we can see posts about going up 10-0 on some poor schlub we decided as a unit to take out. Last night.... Last night was not one of those nights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstout Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 It got much better later. We did a mission or two to cleanse the palate and got back into another much friendlier room where the talent level was more than a touch lower. Two of the guys were just taking a deluxe asskicking and kept coming right at us. I was weeping tears of manly joy at the sight of it - they figured if they had two hands, they had a fighting chance. They didn't, but it was still entertaining to watch them try. It was everything I love about this game - one guy getting shot in two different directions while someone's flying at him in a sticky-bombed car. And Rippa, I'll be right in line for RDR2 when it comes out. I'm also gonna take you guys' word for it and buy the next Mass Effect game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSC Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Been having such a shit time trying to get online that I've actually started going back and playing the main game again (since none of that carried over and at least this way I don't have to see that stupid Michael therapy cut scene every time I have to restart the game). I realize that I remember almost nothing about the main story, and pretty much just rushed through it to build up my character online to catch up with everyone.

RIPPA Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Yeah - part of the whole point of me rebuying the game was to do the single player. Problem I didn't forsee was my wife being bitter anytime I play the single player because she is not thrilled with... oh pretty much everything. So when I do play either she needs to not be around or I need to play online. I am really tired of seeing Michael yell at his wife to not spend so much money.

jstout Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Regular readers of this thread will be shocked to hear the news that the Mayor of Los Santos was more than a little inebriated Tuesday night. This would've been a good one to have been broadcasting on Twitch. Fun night. Wasn't a lot of resistance to be had. The game and XBox Live put up more resistance than the dots. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The single player has nothing to do with online. One of the big disappointments with the game for me. You should be able to use your online character as one of the "help" for the heists and then get the earnings back into online, or if you go further in the game, it unlocks more stuff for online, etc. 20 hours ago, RIPPA said: Yeah - part of the whole point of me rebuying the game was to do the single player.

Thankfully the little intro scenes change up during the game. Or else you can save with Trevor and then have fun watching his escapades. Though half the time he is either drunk so hard to control and/or way up north in the sticks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 Oh I know - as I had played it some on the 360 too. The ones with Trevor where you need to not die while on the train tracks or flying where a change of pace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melraz09 Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 All I know is as bad off as I was I still had to drive both cars in that Lamar mission. Poor ol' Robert just couldn't get it done. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert C Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I started my first beer when we started that mission. I was through number 3 before we got it done. Was still about 47 behind melraz, though. We failed it so many times that we actually made more money from the failures than we did when we finally passed it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melraz09 Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Yeah and truth be told Robert had to drive both. I couldn't see good enough to walk. Evade 150 cops was a big negative. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jstout Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 "I'M TOO DRUNK TO DRIVE THIS CAR! WHERE'S ROAST?" We were about another whiskey away from John Prine live in concert on XBox Live. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Few things are worse than hearing Rippa hum over XBox Live when Scandalous is on the Pop station. At least he knows that he can't carry a tune in a bucket and doesn't drink so he's never liquored up to the point where he actually believes he has a melodious voice and can sing. Melraz, Burke, and I were tore up enough once to break out in a chorus of Beer Drinkers & Hell Raisers over XBox Live during a shoot-out with some white dot scrubs at the pier. It was terrible and magnificent at the same time. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.T. Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 My GTA5 race winning songs are Encoded Flow (Darbye), This Mystic Decade (The Hot Snakes), Feel the Same (Battle Tapes), and Appetite 4 Destruction (NWA). They didn't put the full nine minute edit of Catapult Man on FlyLo FM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dolfan in NYC Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 "Who is blasting Hall and Oates?" - Phil in a race lobby. Me. It was always me. --- When I signed in and joined the party on Tuesday, young Melraz was knee deep in a whisky bender and started singing "Just some good ol' boys, never meanin' no harm..." Me: "So, is Dukes of Hazzard, like a documentary to y'all?" 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstout Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 "We're from Tennessee, so yes, it is." EDIT: I realize this ship has long since sailed, but I've been saying for years a GTA-styled Dukes of Hazzard game would be a hoot. The player could run around in the General Lee running from Roscoe, and then there could be Daisy missions and Cooter missions and missions where you're Boss and Roscoe trying to catch Willie Nelson in a speed trap to make him play at the Boar's Nest. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melraz09 Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Dude you never played the dukes game. PEDAL TO THE MEDAL BOYS! Lord that phrase is forever etched in my, and certain burkes brains forever. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstout Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I remember there being one, but I never played it. I just wanna see a Dukes of Hazzard game on the XBox One. There'd be five guys our age in line at Walmart the day it came out and the rest of the nation would shrug their shoulders and get back to Call of Duty. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Daisy Duke could never be in a video game on my console.. All I would do is order chicken wings and beer and listen to the jukebox at the Boar's Nest while she was on shift. It would be the Vanilla Unicorn all over again but with slightly more clothing. And to clarify, I'm talking 'bout old school television show Catherine Bach / Daisy Duke not the pale Jessica Simpson knock-off. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstout Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 BTW, lots of reports on GTA Forums that the new update screwed up the heavy sniper - at a certain long range, you hit your target, but don't cause any damage. Lots of complaints that the marksman's simply more powerful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetrolCB Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Yeah, this stinks. Not sure if it's an intended nerf, or (not surprisingly) another coding fuck up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
