  1. I'm really annoyed that you can't quicksave after a mission starts. Sometimes real life says, "put your toys away, now" and you're hooped. I had a good amount of game going on and I fell into a mission without warning. I bailed out because I didn't have time for the mission. Next time I started the game, I was back to the last save, with a bunch of money and weapons vaporized. Not good. :(


  2. As a retired truck driver, 18 wheelers, I've been just about everywhere in Canada and the USA. Los Santos looks exactly like SoCal (LA area) so I thought It would be fun to try out a big rig. I knew that you could drive around in the truck tractor, but in GTA 4 I tried hooking to a trailer an it wouldn't hook. In GTA 5 I tried it again... hooking up to a trailer is no problem. Somewhere on the north eastern coast of Los Santos I grabbed a rig and headed south on the freeway, a little twitchy in the steering department, but otherwise an interesting and slightly realistic experience :)

  3. what's also completely against any logical thinking is the different intel you get.

    on the one hand, the "tooltip" introducing a new safehouse explicitely says that you can safe vehicles in the garage while the manual says any garage works EXCEPT the safehouse garages... thanks R* for this hickup...

    I put a car in Franklin's safehouse garage and his game assigned car outside next to the house and it stayed there. I think the first time I lost the saved car was because I left Franklins personal car somehere else and on the next game re-start, it returned it to the garage which means the one I saved went poof. Just my theory :)


  4. i know a place where there is a suitcase with 12k in it but first you have to get lung compasitey up to at least 80/100 before you get it

    I saw that on the IGN Wiki, it seems you can change charecters and do it again... and again.

    second the option to buy ammo for a gun avalibel at the gun store........ ill detail tell you first you have a gun

    Thanx, the part I didn't realise was that there was a secondary menu besides buying the gun. I thought you had to buy a gun to get ammo which didn't make sense since I already had one. :)

  5. I don't know why R* did that =\ they should know by now that if you find a rare car, or spend over a million dollars on one, then modding it costing thousands and thousands, that you're going to want to keep it, not just "Oh lol there goes my multi-million pound extremely rare custom car, oh well, I'll just steal this Ragina instead"

    If you join Rockstar Social Club, you get a garage that holds about 4 cars, they don't dissapear from there.


  6. So, I can't seem to find a guns & ammo store that sells ammo. So far my only source has been dead bad guys. (?)

    Even if I could find somewhere to buy ammo, I can't get any money together. I have Rockstar Social Club so that gives me the Grove garage for storing any cars I like, that's cool. But I robbed the convenience store across the street... once, and got just over $700, but the second time the guy screams and runs out of the store. I've tried to get into other stores but none of them are open. How do you find them?

    The tow truck gig hasn't paid me a dime yet, don't know when I'm supposed to get any cash from that :(

    Bottom line.. ammo & cash, where do I get it??

    Thanx! :)
