jstout Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 I think we will have to have a wellness check for stout when everyone in this thread who has a Xbone starts playing there instead of the 360 Bah. I'll just run around trying to kill the other six people still playing the 360 game. From my playing recently, it's apparent Santa brought the 360 game to a new group of 9-year-olds this Christmas, so hey. Actually, I'm looking forward to all of y'all's temporary returns when heists come out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert C Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 The little dude still hasn't decided to show his face. He's decided it's cold out there and he's just gonna hang out where he is where he is. Water broke a few hours ago, but nothing else is really happening. I would've brought my 360 and tried to connect to the hospital wireless, but I figure the nurses would've probably helped my wife murder me if I did that.

RUkered Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 New favorite thing: tossing a proximity outside of someone's garage when they're in their apartment and driving away. You bastard. Hahaha, hey man - you toss one and ten minutes later you've forgotten. Then, out of nowhere you see RUkered has killed / Bad Sport / You blew up a personal vehicle - and you just laugh and laugh. I think half the fun of this game is just imagining the other people's reactions. Give it a shot - come to the dark side... And you're safe from our little group of sociopathic assholes. We're on the 360. You might want to watch your ass around AxB though... I think the saddest statement about me is that I hadn't been feuding with the guy, hadn't saw him bullying anyone, didn't check his level, nothing. He could have been level 430 or 4 and it didn't matter. I just saw a dot in a house and went for it. I feel like right now would be an appropriate time to quote some old 80's villain - "he was just in the wrong place at the wrong time" or something similar, but my memory is failing. I bet there's bound to be a Jack Palance speech that would do the trick. I played a bunch of random stuff yesterday just trying to get the girl character to 90. Nothing too interesting to report - just your standard situation of one group being pretty fun to play with, and the next like trying to herd cats. I did get with a group of two that were just driving their custom Gauntlets around. I was half distracted checking game scores and BA-DINGING, so I figured I'd just ride with one of them for a while. I probably rode with the guy, helping him shoot people for at least 20 minutes. All of a sudden we get near that fancy apartment up north in the city and he boots me out of the car and then shoots me. I double-check to make sure I saw it right, and yes, he's a level 5. The amount of joy I felt is hard to describe. "Duuuuuuuude you shouldn't have done that." I proceeded to do kick his ass up one street and down the other. Gave him the standard DVDR cocktail of kill him, sticky his car, spawn kill, let him explode, rinse, and repeat. In line with what Stout said earlier, I agree that it seems many of the higher levels have moved to the One. I haven't had too much trouble by myself in freemode recently, and that's not usually the case at all. Almost forgot - next time you're on Stout, we have to do some Top Fun missions since I know you love them. I don't know if I just had a random streak of luck, or if I've actually improved as a jet pilot but I was leading the team to victory just about every match. Having said that, I did clip a wing on a building once, tried to parachute out upside down, and splattered the sidewalk. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstout Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 I'm getting a little better at flying fighter jets, but not enough to ever WANT to play Top Fun. I'd still rather play it than those got-dang missions where you have to steal a Cargobob from Fort Zancudo. Life's too short for those. The rule still seems to oddly stand - the later it gets, the better the players are. At 7 or 8, the room is full of idjits. By 2-3 a.m., there's some very good players in there. This is more often true than not. There's no better feeling than being the BMOC in a room, when everyone who gets near you gets killed. I really should check levels before messing with people - too low or too high is a problem - but I generally just try to kill the dot closest to me. Saves all that driving around. I only target specific people if they've pissed me off on the game chat or messed with me first. I'm even too easily distracted by a shiny to stay on someone who's messed with me first. I figure "I'll get back to them," and then they leave before I do. You will never catch me diving into a scrum when playing solo. I hate those damn things. I've had them develop around me, and if they're big enough and bothersome enough, I tend to find something else to do. It isn't cowardice to run away from a situation that has the odds stacked against you - it's stupidity for staying. It blows my mind when the same dipshits hang around for days while four of us snipe him on the spawn for 20 minutes straight. But they keep coming. We've been "dude, leave. No one would blame you. We want you to leave" on so many occasions, but NOOOO, they stay and get killed 80 times combined by us. We could leave them alone, but what's the fun in that? It's Loser Leave Town, and that dude's the loser. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUkered Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 There's no better feeling than being the BMOC in a room, when everyone who gets near you gets killed. I just finished up a session with the mayor doing just that. Well, I was basically a BMOC only because I was standing right beside the mayor and he'd kill someone before they could get to me. What I said earlier about being around a bunch of low levels? Forget it - that room was packed with high levels, and our main nemesis was a level 423. The dude wasn't necessarily bad I don't think - we just had his number. It all started when we teamed up to go get a special crate at those docks to the left of Simeon's (if you're looking at the map). We were already in a chopper, but there was a damn gold rush worth of people headed for it. We got there first. I blew up a car with the homing missile while Mel got the crate. Then he wore out the rest of the incoming cars with various bombs and rockets. We ended up in a scrum down there that lasted probably close to an hour. I think I only got killed by another player once, and Mel never got killed. The level 423 was hilarious. When Mel and I were floating around waiting to see where the crate would spawn, he starts heading toward us in a plane. I flew in circles while Mel shot the shit out of his plane, but I couldn't keep evading him. He is finally headed straight for us, and I do the only thing I can think of - tilt the chopper so he flies into the rotors. He exploded and we somehow survived. I'm still laughing about it. Then, during the scrum down at the docks, we'd see his dumbass go off the radar, but he'd do something stupid like come hauling ass up to us in a loud sports car. Mel fed him his fair share of rockets. I was in passive on a roof while I went to kitchen, and the guy came back (off the radar again of course) in a Buzzard, which Mel blew up with a homing rocket. When everybody finally took off, we just stayed on the roof calling muggers and mercenaries. At one point, Mel's mugger got the poor dude 10k - and the mugger got away. Never saw that much mugging cash before. I'm sure Mel remembers more that I do, because he was doing most of the ass whipping. Unfortunately, he got the Xbox live boot and had to go. Oh yeah - almost forgot. Before we started our fight with the level 423, he sent us both a message that says "You better not touch my Simeon car," like we're dumb enough to walk into that ignition bomb trap. The souls of too many J.T. Simeon bombs cried out in warning. Oh yeah - one last thing before I run the risk of talking myself up too big. When I first got in the room, Mel was in a 3 on 1 scrum and I drove up to help. I run up to one of the guys who is in cover behind a wall. I take cover on the other side and start trying to aim sticky bombs on top of the wall. While I'm focused on that, the sumbitch jumped the wall behind me and beat my ass down with a baseball bat. He was level 24. Any time I start thinking I'm getting my shit together in this game, someone has to remind me that I die in the dumbest ways sometimes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question constantly asked by crew members to themselves in Freemode is "how can I be the biggest prick possible here?" Pretty much, yep.

melraz09 Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 It didnt take long to get back into the swing of things. I had 3 on 1 when burke got in the session and turned into 4 on one briefly while burke was on his way. Then it was 3 on 2 and we kicked the shit outta them boys then the whole map. I got completely red and was gettin "players are voting to kick you" messages within 15 minutes of playin. The dickhead in the plane that tried to blow us up and ended up eatin burkes blades from our news channel 5 chopper was the best. Then off rader he went to eat a rocket and a second attempt to just get his buzzard blown up and a mugger That robbed him of 10 grand. He sent a message that said it must be tough for you low levels. I love people who like to talk smack out their mouth as they are receivin a good kick in their ass. k/d went up quite a bit hopefully I'll be able to get back on and let the good times keep a rollin. Robert hope all is goin good brother mane. Thoughts and prayers buddy. Cant wait to get the new lil recruit ridin shotgun and bustin heads. Wait maybe he can drive me...yeah that'll probably work better 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert C Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 It's all looking good so far, but going really slow. I'm just sitting here scratching my ass waiting on something to happen. We're gonna have to get him trained up so he can take over dot killing duties, so his old man can sit back, watch and drink beer. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AxB Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Everyone knows I'm the nice one. I'm the one person on this crew who will actually save the low level person who's got the Simeon car, give him an armed escort to the docks and so forth. Once a little kid came over the headset saying "Can someone stop this guy from killing me?" and I actually went over there and did save him (although saving a nine year old from a 13 year old isn't really much of an achievement). Anyone else on the board would have killed the kid themselves instead. Everyone on Cristobal's friend list is either someone he met through me, or someone who he met through Havoc. He met Havoc through me. Sample conversation from any time me and Cris are working with a random: Random: Where are you guys from? Me: England Cris: California Havoc: Jamaica* Random: That is soooooooo cool. How do you know each other, then? Me: We're part of a conspiracy to take over the world. * nb: He's actually from Philadelphia. His parents are from Jamaica. @Paperback Ryback: What's your PSN name?

Neil Koch Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 Man I am fucking rusty at this game. I think I died about 10 times doing the gang attack at the construction site. What's the mission du jour to grind for cash? I noticed they took Crystal Clear Out 3 off of the quick start menu, which kind of pisses me off since that was my go to mission to earn quick money. BTW the next gen version does feature new weapons (only got a hatchet so far, supposedly there's a rail gun) and vehicles, including a Mad Max style armored muscle car. There is also some new single player stuff like a mystery and wildlife photo hunting. You also get the content from the special and collectors editions. Not a huge amount of new content overall but I'll probably still get my $60 worth out if it, especially since with the amount of hours I am working it'll take about a year to go through single player again.

This is an example of the love the Los Santos people shower onto our fair mayor. (NSFW language) https://soundcloud.com/rukered/mayor-praise Hell yeah, that's what I like to hear. Noted wildlife experts like to call it "the native call of the Butthurt." That's a good night in Freemode right there. If you can have them cursing you or sending "why?" messages, you have succeeded. And usually the ones talking the most shit are the ones who can't back it up. I try not to actually talk when I'm killing someone who's on the mic unless the situation screams for it. AxB, I've came the aid of many a player in Freemode. If I'm by myself and someone comes up to me honking, I'll generally get in the car. Most of the time those guys want backup for fighting someone. I've came down to help someone who sent me a text message saying "would you help me?" Hey, why not, waypoint set. As long as they don't expect me to join their damn Party, I'm good. Herby~! was a random who came up to me honking his horn, and I actually chatted with him and he's been a great guy to have on the crew, everyone enjoys being in a session with him. I just gave up on a lot of "bonding" in Freemode because I can't take the damn kids. After we got Wolfbeast's help, Mel's all like "let's invite him to the party to say thanks" Me: "you're gonna regret that" (kid joins) Mel: "dalmit!" Me: "told you so, man." I play fairly differently when I'm by myself, more likely to do random shit or change circumstances or accept user-created race invites on a whim, but when it's me and anyone else from the crew, it's kill the guy with the ball. Loser Leave Town. Neil: A big go-to for everyone these days seems to be Titan of a Job - takes a bit to fly the Titan over to Trevor's, but it's easy to take out the guys guarding it. It isn't quick, but it's easy. Every mission pays pretty OK. Even the Gerald missions pay OK and some of them are very easy. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
