Gamer Night

Gamer Night
GTA IV Experimenting


TONIGHT: Friday night (31st of July) at 7pm-10pm EST (your time here) time we will be screwing around in Liberty City (PC version, sorry PS3/360 owners). The goal is to see if 32 people fit inside one of the buses. My guess is that it will only hold around 25.

Get on for glory, justice, science, and random fun that comes from screwing around. To join the game just simply add the gamer-tag AirDoubloon and join the GTA IV game at the appointed time. For help or if you just want to chat about it, go to the chatroom and type /join #gbatemp-wifi

Hmm, this idea interests me. I'll look into it.

 

[lincruste]

This is a great, I mean GREAT idea! Too bad I won't be home tonite.

GTA IV's my favorite game!...on the 360.

Spoiler

BTW I don't want to spoil any fun but the 360 bus didn't hold very many people.

Maybe they changed that for the pc version though.
I told my parents a while back that I should get a new graphics card to play this but they thought it would be a stupid idea considering I already had the 360 version. So I was like "I should get the pc version because it's got a better resolution and a greater draw distance" but they were just like "wtf?" so I never got one. Probably wouldn't have mattered anyway since it won't run on my Intel Celeron D single core piece of shi-.

 

[Sinkhead]

I'd join you but it's too late (I'm up at 6 AM the next morning...)

 

[mkoo]

I've never tried multiplayer (I despise Gfw Live) Do pirated copies work?

 

[SilentSinr]

i bought this on steam awhile back, i have only played single player so far though
to my knowledge i do not have anything planned for tonight so i will try and make it,
it sounds like it will be a blast

 

[teonintyfive]

That would be awesome IF THE GODDAMN MULTIPLAYER WORKED FOR ME.

You inspired me to play singleplayer, though

 

[Joe88]

the pc port is horrible though...

 

[Sinkhead]

the pc port is horrible though...

Tell me about it... The email banter between Rockstar and I has been going on for several months. I actually bought the game, my PC is above the recommended specs and certainly above the minimum, and it's simply unplayable due to the crashes and loading issues. I do everything they tell me on the ticket, and I even tried it on a fresh Windows installation to no avail...

WTF? I pirated the game, and it's working wonderfully! I never had any crashing problems....
I just downloaded the latest patches, and don't enable that replay or so.
Then it worked.
Hope it works out for you Sinkhead!

It's my graphics card. GTA IV hates ATi 4870s. Lots of people have the problem and Rockstar doesn't seem to be able to fix the problem. Sucks, especially when I bought it and it doesn't work, and then I hear of people pirating it and having it work perfectly

Ah man, I feel your pain man. I was so hyped for Fallout 3, and I too bought it (first game I bought in 6 years !)
Then it turned out the 8800GTS with Vista 64bit was just a no-go with the game. It always crashes when I click New Game.....
That sucks soo hard man, unbelievable! And they can't fix it, I've asked it a dozen times on the forums, but they can't fix it.....

 

[Nathan-NL]

Why are we never having a game night for the x360?

That's strange. Up until recently I had an 8800GTS and Vista x64. Played Fallout 3 just fine.


Anyway... back to on topic. Would love to join in, but my copy of GTA 4 is of questionable origins.

If there's a way to join in, I'm all game.

 

[raulpica]

My PC would run GTA4 without problems... If I only had it

I was playing it on my 360, and I guess it's a bit too late to try to get ahold of it now.

Oh well, I guess it goes for the next time... which I hope will be soon
