Why would they limit the number of times you can transfer? You're still paying $60 each time, unless you purchased it while it's on sale.

Another question about character transfer, will my character's appearance remain the exact same even if I haven't changed any options on them? When the heists DLC came out, my character suddenly changed appearance and looked like he was about 40 years old. Now, he's back to his early twenties, which I specified originally. While watching an IGN video about character creation on PS4, they said that their character changed and looked older before they began messing around with the options. I really don't want my main character to change because I'm finally happy with how they look. I just want to edit my other character.

Your transferred character should look identical to how they look when you transfer them.

My guy on PS3 had that GTA, inbred look to him. He kinda looked like every other character. Thankfully when I went over to the PS4 he looked like a normal person and with a few tweaks he looks great.

I think most of the female characters still suffer from the transvestite look. They're all a bit too butch but a huge improvement on the PS3 females.

Broughy's updated the speed tests with cutie compacts that need a bit of general community racing love.

And the fastest compact is...

Spoiler

THE DILETTAN-

No, who am I kidding. The regular compacts that use petrol are faster in a straight line than the I'm Not A Hipster duo that dominates the tracks.

Blista and Issi 104.5
Prairie 103.5
Rhapsody 102.5
Panto 100.5


Pathetic prius expy I mean Dilettante 88.5

The Prairie got 3rd, while the Issi and the Blista share the top spot. Not a large margin this time around, so no fuss on getting a Blista over a Rhapsody now I hope.

You able to transfer from PC or Xbox to PS4 as long as you use the same SC account I have friends that have came from Xbox and PC and transfered there character from those to PS4.

So, I went reading the initial announcement of the Executives Update, and it had me nearly miss this gem:

Organizations can go head to head in Freemode, with new missions that make full use of the latest executive defense options including new armored vehicle variants

So, the Scrubmobile options expand. I am displeased to blow up cars that might cost more than the Armored Kuruma.. and even be unlocked straight up.

You know, I guess I should stop berating the scrubmobile, and for starters: Armored Kuruma has the scrubmobile name dropped, and SPD will be calling it the Armored Kuruma. But you're not in the clear yet, darling.

I'm loving the GTA Online experience on the PS4 so far.

Everyone looks older when you see them in better detail.

I was just worried that it would be like a 20-year difference.

is that gta time or real time :?

It shouldn't be too bad.

 

[xXKingJoshXx]

Any word on when the snow is going to start?

 

[Jahgee]

Any word on when the snow is going to start?

It was real late last year, so probably that late again. My guess is Christmas Eve

 

[Sage Ages]

The snow lasted like a week last year, right?

 

[xXKingJoshXx]

I wish it was longer than that. It's really fun.

 

[SomePlayaDude]

I have to remember not to accidentally kill anyone with the snowballs this year.

 

[JR98]

You could actually kill people with them!?

Edit: Also, it would be cool to have a snowball machine gun thinking about it

 

[SomePlayaDude]

I've done it randoms, but also a fellow GTPlanet member got it. I don't remember who it was, though. But yeah: I did.

A snowball machine gun sounds nice, but.. the only game I know with one is Terraria.

 

[Patrick]

Does anyone thing the Yacht will be pilot able? Seems like something that you'd just fly out to.

i just wonder if you can pick it up with the cargobob

 

[STI9]

Im pretty sure the yacht will be static. Couldn't have people crashing it onto the beach or capsizing it.
Queue 'failboat' jokes.

How about a potato cannon, or a pumpkin cannon available for purchase on halloween?

 

[m8h3r]

I'm just hoping the snow will come to ps3 again. Missed it last year's because I moved out and had a baby, this year om not upgrading till April time so I don't want to wait till 2016/17 for the snow!

 

[SVX]

I'm just wondering, am I able to do the PS3 to PS4 character transfer when I've already done it for PC.

IIRC with the announcement of the PC version they also disclosed that you'll be able to transfer a third time to PC, and I imagine it'd be the same case for transferring a third time to PS4.

Nah, sadly not.

Transferring to PlayStation®4

What you need:

1. A copy of Grand Theft Auto V on PlayStation®4.
2. Previous Grand Theft Auto Online character and progression data on either PlayStation®3 or Xbox 360.

As well as this to confirm that it is indeed impossible.

It seems that they are treating the PC version as the best version of the game, so their logic is that you wouldn't want to switch to a worse version of the game...

Similar to how you wouldn't logically switch from PS4 to PS3..
