  1. The X-Men and the FF were not a "major part" of Civil War.

    I don't think it's completely out of the question that Marvel could work something out with Sony. They seem to have a friendly relationship.

    Fox, on the other hand...I think they fucking hate those guys. Part of the reason they're killing Wolverine is probably out of spite.

  2. I hope you're not beating yourself up too bad over this. Thank you for all the time, money and effort you put into this place. A full time job and a compulsive video game addiction and you still manage to devote a hefty percentage of your free time to keeping this place afloat.

     

    And future me may or may not have sabotaged the backups to erase potentially embarrassing details about my personal life.

  3. Things that should have been in single player:

     

    Car tracker (puts a blip on the map when you leave your car)

    Insurance (replaces your car if it you lose it)

    Quick GPS shortcuts

    Functioning real estate website

  4. It works fine on the proper console.

     

    Nah, I've frozen up like 3 or 4 times. I blame the launch day blues.

     

    'Baytor, get in on this shit. It's basically another campaign + 4th character. There's fully fleshed out missions and heists, it's just that your character is basically like Claude. A mute who speaks in pantomime.

     

    The people I've run into have been harmless, and have only added to the atmosphere. It's amazing, but I haven't been griefed at all. I just now figured out how to turn passive mode on, too. One random stranger even gave me a ride in his nice car while we hit a few convenience stores.

     

    SO MUCH MORE CLOTHES! Maybe it's because I made a chick. Fucking clothing options coming out my ears.

  5. The Character Creation System

    The hereditary-based character creation system of Grand Theft Auto Online allows for a multitude of options to create your avatar that will then inhabit the online world of Los Santos & Blaine County. Choose your gender then decide on your mother and father. From there, you can choose to give one parent genetic dominance or leave them more evenly matched. The choice is yours. Next, you adjust a set of lifestyle variables which help determine your character’s appearance and starting stats. Decide how much sleep he/she gets, how much partying they indulge in, how much honest work versus illegal activity, and more. Essentially, you can adjust the genetics to wind up with a fresh faced lad or lass or a grizzled, haggard degenerate or anywhere in between! You’ll also be able to preview your end result in real time all throughout to ensure you’re satisfied before putting your character on a direct flight to LS. Of course, once you’re out and about in the open world, you can further customize your character with haircuts, clothing and accessories to suit your tastes.

     

     

    If you're a Social Club member, you can be a descendant of John Marston.

  6. Yeah, they call it "passive". It looks like it's basically like unflagging for PvP in WoW.

     

    I was reading a Q & A thing, and someone asked "So if another person kills me, does it cost like $5,000 like it does in single player?" (it actually takes a percentage and someone clearly doesn't dump their cash in the market to prevent this from happening, but that's neither here nor there)

    And, no. No it doesn't.

     

    When someone kills you in GTA:O, you drop all of the cash you have on you. But not what you have in the bank.

    You can then put a bounty on their head, if it pleases you to do so.

  7. When you boil it down, I think Michael is the most evil character in the game by far. I think when he met Franklin, he saw something he could use. Frank had already shown that he was naive ("repo" man), money hungry and driven. I think Michael has a history of finding guys like that, getting them to respect and trust him, and then using them to commit incredibly dangerous crimes.

     

    I think Trevor may have been a Franklin.

    So this took me a couple of tries to perfect, but it is WELL worth it.

  8. If 'baytor is talking about the page I posted where he's snorting lines, that's Ultraman.

    Whoops, wrong thread. I meant that NZA reposted. That's what I meant.

     

    The heat vision thing is Superman, but he was sabatoged. He had something in his eye.

    Yeah. Seriously.

  9. Yeah, it kind of ends in a different place than it starts, like an episode of The Simpsons.

     

     

    If you remember, you spend several minutes doing yoga, Michael gets in a fight with the frenchie and then makes Jimmy go driving with him.

     

  10. He can, and he does it in a calm manner, which I respect. I get irritated when people try to make it look hard and intense. It makes them look like douches.

    He just very casually and efficiently plucks away. Someday people will realize that making something look easy makes them look a lot more skilled.

  11. The mission "Did somebody say Yoga?" has one of my favorite moments. They're flirting with Saints Row here.

     

     

    So I switched to Trevor earlier and he was riding a Faggio scooter next to some random civilian and screaming "SCOOOOOOTER BUDDIES". I lost my shit. I kept following him around on it and he just kept on and on. "Hey scooter buddy, where ya goin' scooter buddy? Nice scooter, scooter buddy. You're my best scooter buddy, scooter buddy. SCOOOOOTER BUDDIIIIIIIEEEEES"

  12. It seems about right to me and, more importantly, it's full of stuff. Just Cause 2 had a bigger map, but it was mostly uninteresting randomly generated jungle with tiny pockets of bland civilization sprinkled in. It's amazing how big and how far you can see when you're up high, and somehow without loading. This is one of those late gen console games that's reeeally pushing what these old machines can do.

     

    I think the improved GPS and the fact that you can move really fast at times makes the map seem smaller than it is.

     

    here's GTA IV overlayed.
