I suck at shooting from my car (mainly if the person is behind me, which is the vast majority of the time), so it's easier and life-saving for me to just hop out. I can get out my RPG or other heavy powered machinery that way too. :p

Unless I'm the passenger, then I just lock-on to shoot them.

Nice. :clap:

It's his fault he died. Who the hell just lets somebody follow them for 15 minutes? If I even have somebody turn the same corner as me from blocks away, I pull over and stand behind my car until they either go away or pull up and stop or start shooting. I would have RPG'd you if that were me. :p

I keep driving, but I keep a close eye on the dot, ready my AP pistol, and start looking for a good defensive spot.

Going on in a little bit. Anyone wanna join me?

I've been surprised with my shooting while driving, but not all the time. And especially when I'm SHOOTING BEHIND ME and trying to drive at the same time...And dodge traffic...But there was one day where I got like 2 or 3 headshots in a row on drivers in moving cars while driving myself

And my dad just took the keyboard, my best form of communication, to test a computer, or I might pop on.

I recently joined the official GTA forum. Jesus, it's like game scripting and game development is like some sort of dark art there that shouldn't be spoken about.

Some people there actually believe that the reason Rockstar scripted less vehicle damage into the game was "to accommodate noobs".

Today was fun.

Did some DMs with Mushet. One of them was a R* verified one set in the grassy, wet area outside of the military base. It was called "Battlefield GTA" or something; probably the funnest DM I've ever played. It helped that there were six of us on each team. Then at some point we did another one with another player who joined; it was me and them vs. Mushet, and we won. Then we completed a survival. After that we (me and the other player) BARELY lost another DM where a 4th player joined with Mushet.

Then before all of this, I helped W9 get a Manana*, and then we drove down to Grove Street, shot the Barneys, and fought off the police for about...15-20 minutes maybe. It ended with me accidentally killing W9 (trying to shoot a cop) and then getting shot by a cop 5 seconds later.
So yeah, fun day and I made some money from Jobs and selling my Bobcat (which, actually, turns out NOT to be a Bobcat...)

Man, I was playing as my alternate and I decided to have this one be on the starts shit, and he's only a level 20 something, so whatever. Anyway I was going after this red dot level 30 (red dot = probably had it coming to him) dude and killing him, he went into passive mode and I had the sniper rifle trained right on him and his obnoxious ass does that finger fucking thing to mock me, still kept it on him, his dumb ass called a chopper and right after he got in I sniped him out, he promptly left the session :lol:

I just found the most awesome random event on this game ever. I found a tapdancing hillbilly in the middle of nowhere, singing along to a song as well. To make it even more perfect, a pig keeps walking back and forth in front of the picture....It's just so awesome.

My friend was like "I want a merryweather Mesa" and I'm like "you can get those???"

So I called mercs on him, he shot the dudes, then I ran up and got in one of the cars and sat near the other so it wouldn't despawn.

Since he managed to kill himself by accident, I also got a refund for the mercs.

Oh, I forgot to say that day got even weirder. I got chased down by a bunch of hillbillies on dirt bikes, and they told me to pull over and shot me to pieces as soon as I slowed down (I expected it to happen, but slowed down anyway)

Did anyone else actually watch Michael's movie that he was the producer of in the movie theaters? It's hilarious and makes so many jabs at Hollywood movie stereotypes.

Yeah i saw it once, it was pretty funny, but all of the movies in that game are random as hell, there was this Spanish one i remember watching in it once, it was black and white and involved this guy climbing a ladder and a bunch of other random stuff... it was one of the strangest things i have ever seen.
