Really? I'd just assumed we needed to buy an apartment to access those (since those apparently come with the planning board included). I had no idea they were rolling out later. Ah well, something to look forward to :)

Xbox. It sometimes does. There were three of us playing deathmatches together at one point and when we went back to free roam two of us were in one server and the other one was on their own. We've also had occasions where someone has been in a half empty server, but if people try to join it keeps saying it's full.

I've been having a great time too, both with crew members and randoms. Me and a friend had a memorable moment where I had to get out and kick the car off an obstruction during a particularly madcap car chase, which was pretty fucking hilarious. I also had two guys stalking me around the docks in free roam, which was a…

South Park, Simpsons, Family Guy, in that order. I could name half a dozen animated shows I'd watch ahead of Family Guy, though. Archer, Venture Bros, and Futurama, particularly. But yeah, South Park has been probably the most consistently great of all the long running US adult oriented animations. I appreciate a show…

Not too bad now. Matchmaking is still iffy but mostly it's working fine. And a lot of fun it is.

Hope it helps! It's great fun, once you're finally in :)

They don't do very well off road, either. If there's no chopper on you it's pretty easy to just scoot up a mountain and sit there 'til they get bored.

I think the picture up there is Perry White from Superman, not JJ Jameson...

Yeah the cops are vicious in online. I've had helis after me on a 2-star wanted level.

Wait it out. I spent 12 hours restarting, but I only got in when I just sat and left it for a good half hour or so. It seems that if worst comes to worst, it just gives up and lets you do the first race against Lamar with no other human players. Once you're past that, you should be good.

Wait it out. It's frustrating as hell, but I had that problem for 12 hours, and I kept quitting and restarting, but when I finally just left it until it connected, it was fine, and it's been fine since. Took about half an hour in the end, I think. Unless your system is actually freezing (if you're on 360, hit the home…

Yup. Took me 12 hours to get past that first race, but since I did it's been working pretty damn well. Matchmaking for missions is a bit slow, but it's at least functional. My mates and me have been having an amazing time with it, now we're finally on.

There are solo and invite only options in the menu, I believe. There's also a passive mode if you just wanna play golf or something without getting griefed.

Very worrying if losing your character ends up being an ongoing issue. Really don't want everything to start working and then lose weeks of progress somewhere down the line. Why the hell can't there be backup info saved locally?

They did indeed answer it, but thanks for the info anyway :)

Only if we can have Captain N too

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't the original NES Zelda non-linear? Here's a video about it.

Yeah, someone else just mentioned MW3 on PS3 was a shitshow for the first few days too. Like I say, I had no idea, but now I do :)
