I'm not really following what's going on in V and sorry if it's going to sound like a stupid question but the pc version is bringing something new to the table or there's is no huge changes in the stunting scene right now? I'm really curious to hear you guys opinion because you already set the bar so high with the console version, i wonder if the PC version will have a considerable influence on the level of the stunts.

Thanks.

well, there's the editor. So videos from now on will have custom cameras and be in 60fps. but stunting itself, not that I can think of.

To be honest, only my motivation and dedication changed. It's more accessible, better to use with mouse-keyboard etc etc.

The editor is a huge thing, the replays are aswell, and to be honest, I've never been able to do something with a bmx. I realised that it was so much better and easier to understand with the keyboard (due to having the handle of it after SA) bike is still better with a gamepad at some point, like having a perfect glide, but with some training, I can "almost" reach my gamepad's glide.

But to answer a little more, not much has changed for the level of the stunts, but V is a lot more accessible to old GTAS stunters. That's why it's sick!

Agree about the motivation/dedication thing as well  :jajaja: I've probably already played V more on PC than I did in the two first years of V. (probably not, but give it another two weeks)  :cc_detective:

Hey guys! I'm curious about the PC version. Does it have the same replay system as the previous games?

It's not exactly the same, but pretty much yes. However you have to turn on action replay now, which is what we know from VC/SA. It's off by default and you have to turn it on everytime you start the game. Which I think is going to lead to a few landed stunts will get lost because people forgot to turn it on or whatever  :lol: You turn it on with f2, and you turn it off with f3. And to save an action replay you press f1. If action replay is not on, you can press  f1 to record live for as long as you want, but it'll save in 30 second increments. I haven't tried that method as much, but I'd say it's better to stick with the action replay one. That way you won't have to record every attempt. The length of the action replay depends on how complex the scene is, so when you're stunting in a city with no traffic and no other players it can go for a while. One of my longest ones so far is over a minute, so I think we're safe unless someone does like a 8 minute grind  :euro: Also they get saved in the same format as IV reps, which is a .clip file, which can be a few mb large. My one minute rep is about 44mb. The .clip file is also accompanied by a small jpeg. If you want to get really tidy with the organisation of replays you could probably make custom jpegs and everything. The image serves as a little thumbnail for the replay when you use it in the in-game editor, so it's probably really handy for editors if people do it like that.  :jajaja:

You've also got to be wary of the conditions that reset replay data. Loading a checkpoint in a race, bailing in a standard race (not a GTA race - you can leave your vehicle), dying, and so on. There's a laundry list of problems you need to be aware of with replays in this game, which is a shame, but they work just fine when you know the limits.

No idea tbh, there's so much stupid shit you can do in this game. Been toying around with different things, but not favorite thus far. Although getting launched by those wind turbines never gets old  :lol:

Any new incoming members?
Not that I am aware of, noh.

New vid coming soon?
Being worked on, but not going as fast as we want it to  :P Tons and tons of spots, they just need to be landed  :lol:

How did you end up in Nomad Union?
Daffy invited me before V was out. He sent me a pm which went something like "Thinking about getting a crew together for V when its released. Are you getting it, and if yes, you in?" and I was like "Fosho"

Can you guess? wallrides :D, but tbh gliding is just really fun to do so don't knock it till you try it. I'm also quite proud of finding sliding, has more uses than I initially imagined.

Any new incoming members?
Nope

New vid coming soon?
Soon :euro:, as :simon: said we have the ideas, just need the time :P

How did you end up in Nomad Union?
Daffy is the mastermind, he literally invited everyone.
