I'm not sure if I want to go from asian business lady, to strong black female who don't need no man, or not.

Perhaps you can be bold and mix your stereotypes up; a black business lady who is in desperate need of a man. or something.

I wasn't even going for a stereotype, classy lady is just a default for me.

here's a thought from the console.

Try and use in game voip- the reason? Your chars lips move when you talk!

And you will see it often as the lobbys all start with good looks at them.

The static from peoples mics and the lips moving from it used to freak me out on PS3.

The characters in GTA:O were very good at making the mouth noises of eating too. Finding and killing the eaters was an odd compulsion.

And I was just busting your chops, Dianno. :P

After playing a ton of Minecraft, I'd likely freak out and shoot the person uncontrollably, thinking that he/she is Creeper and is about to explode next to me.

It's a super awesome feature.

But to be fair, in game chat is always the worst. Every talk to random people? uhg. Gang + friend voice chat only. Then you talk to someone and can't tell if they are on system level chat and can't even hear you if they wanted to.

Quality never stands up even on consoles to the system level chats it seems(at least on PSN).

Just because 90% of the time its crap doesn't mean we should rob ourselves of a company trying to do something cool.

Im cristmass eve levels of hype.

If the server hamsters start dying en mass, I will take the opportunity to install my shiny new OS SSD and reinstall GTA5 on that glorious drive.

Big Classy

Probably should get the new thread going before it so explodes.

masterthehero

Just remember these guys are in Scotland. So if y'all break the servers, it ain't gonna get fixed till tomorrow!

Sir Carcass

Got my 360 controller. Got my gaming headphones. Got my pants not on. This shit has been too long.

Got my radio station. Ain't need no Playstation. Done with the preload. Ain't no more download!

Steam killer. Better you than me.
Steam killer. Your server's going to it's knees!
Steam killer. My family bout to be grieving (fuck em).
Steam killer, cause tonight I get even.

I was just typing out what I had ready to go then I realized it sounded like alt lyrics to Cop Killer.

mojojoeo

send me friend invites

We re private lobbying pretty fast!

Mojojoeo is the name on RSC

Campy

Invite sent mojo, pablocampy on rockstar and everywhere for anyone else!

Suriko

Decrypting!

Shimshai

Damn you all and your supercomputers!

Zetx

Aw nuts, mine downloaded something and is now crashing.

Sir Carcass

I had 70GB free after preload. It's just started decrypting and I currently have 40GB free.

Edit: 36GB now. So much for only needing 65GB. Good thing I played it safe.

Suriko

Wait wait what

It downloaded something and now it's still saying encrypted.

Edit: Restarting Steam fixed it.

Edit 2: It ate 40GB. Time to move some files around.

Edit 3: And another download. My poor SSD.

Sir Carcass

Restart Steam

Campy

So possibly foolishly I went immediately for GTA Online. Steam is now doing... something.

Edit: Yeah, there's some big ol' files sloshing around on my SSD. I only have GTA on that drive and it's taking up 110GB at the moment...

Sir Carcass

Probably decrypting. 12 minutes in and down to 22GB. I guess that's my timer. When I hit 5GB free, done!

Campy

Well whatever it's doing it's smashing my processor at 100% and it's half way done. Ca'meeeeeeen!

Sir Carcass

I thiiiiink I'm at about 95%. Getting hype.

Edit: Decrypting done, I think. Downloading something now.

Edit 2: Steam's servers are taking a beating.

Slayer of Dreams

Steam is having a fit, apparently. Steam update, decrypting, another steam update, rebooting again. Good lord.

Hamurabi

It looks like their DRM strategy was to encrypt, like, every single file of the 64GB preload install.

Sir Carcass

Oh hey, AMD has a GTA V optimized driver out. Guess I'll install that while I wait.

Hamurabi

Nice.

Just had the decryption process fill up my SSD. Guess now I'm expected to uninstall any other game on my 250GB SSD just so I can gain access to my $59.99 purchase.

Suriko

In!

Axen

Dammit Rockstar, you were specifically asked about Steam unpacking and you told us, "nah dog it's cool."

Well it ain't.

Dixon

ughhhh....My SSD just freaking failed and now I am redownloading on another one. That was a bit of a buzz kill

Regret Edit: Also I shouldn't have waited until game day to link my xbox account

Sir Carcass

Haven't you learned by now to not believe Rockstar? :P

Campy

Ugh. I'm in the same shitty no room on my SSD boat.

Suriko

Here lies Cities Skylines and Dead or Alive 5, sacrificed in service to GTA V.

Campy

So I think I've managed to massage it into working. I deleted (actually moved to another HDD, but same thing) two 271593_depotcache_1 files, one of which was about 16GB large. They were in the folder G:\Games\Steam\steamapps\depotcache.

Hopefully helps someone else out!
