Midnight Club LA

[Paulie]

Is there any way we can see the trophies we've already acquired and what they were for? I have a feeling I've already got the longest jump trophy but want to know for sure. I said it to Turbo Lag earlier today and I'll say it here now again as well. It's damn annoying that when doing a jump you can hit invisible walls if there is a wall down below where you're jumping. It cost me a race once. And today while cruising we were jumping the biggest jump in the game, on numerous occasions I could have jumped the sky scraper that gets in the way but the game wouldn't allow it.

Yeah I know, it's a real pain in the ass. I really do hope they also fix the stores. I looked inside a sporting goods store and there were only office desks, same goes for some other places too.

Yes, of course you do. You can press the PS button and roll to "Trophies" in the "Game" column and check what trophies you've earned in each game.

The super jump in the Downtown side is great, but not so great as the others, as our car will smash into invisible walls in the air and end up ruining the nice jump.

I think the game does similar thing as GTA IV does - to have less things to render in real time when playing. So sometimes there will be shops having plain 2D image pasted onto its surface (facing to the streets) to pretend having a 3D interior.

I don't mind the 2D interiors, although I wish the images were actually suiting to the shop. It's not a major thing but I happen to notice that the Fast Food Drive through's shop was filled with photos of buildings.

BAH, I'm sick of my PS3 freezing while playing this game.

Same. But it seems to happen more often to you than others.

 

[TsukubaTrueno]

I have a problem...
My PSN ID has been linked since forever to the Social Club and when I try to look at my stats and stuff it says I need to link it. This is driving me insane.

Only frozen once on me.

How long is forever? I think before mine updated for the first time it said that. Did you activate your account from the e-mail?

 

[Turbo Lag]

I think the Social Club is dead and I kind of hope it is. Only feature I've found useful is the Photos.

Same here mate. TOUCH WOOD...
Last time (the only time) my game froze when I'm changing vehicle while cruising online with Leon and Paulie.

Frankly, the most important feature of the social club to me is only the Photo Album.

I don't understand why the game needs to link to the driving test in social club to unlock the R8 instead of unlocking it within the game.

 

[andrewyhy]

Sorry for double posting again.

I linked my account and activated it even before I got GTA IV, and I've had GTA IV since release date.

Mine has frozen a couple of times, usually after a race, when loading and when switching from sky map to ground view. It also looses the engine noises once in a while. Im sure Rockstar could sort these in a patch, maybe something will be included in the south central upgrade.

Whats more worrying for me is the way this game strains the Blu Ray drive.

When loading it does this "judder judder judder" sound as if its loading different things from different parts of the disk. Like the games disk wasnt written in any logical order.

Now this could be understandable as its an open world game and doesnt have linear missions but no other game I own makes this much noise from the drive nor gives it so much 'grief', certianly no other game loads like that! Does anyone else have noises like that from MCLA?

I get the same noise when loading a picture CD with hundreds of images on it in the XMB just so you know what im talking about.

I don't understand why the game needs to link to the driving test in social club to unlock the R8 instead of unlocking it within the game.

That would be the easy way wouldnt it! Its not even like the car is super special of anything (every other game has it). Now if it were a Bugatti Veyron then I could understand! Basically they just wanted people to join the club, if it wasnt needed to unlock stuff and upload photos from the game I don't see how much use the service would get.

I've got the same loading sound here. But it loads that loud on occasions (for example when starting the game for the 1st time). In fact, it loads quietly for most of the time. I hope it won't get the Blu-Ray drive reader ageing so quickly.

That's really true mate! If the screenshots, the R8 and other stuff can be done/unlocked within the game, I think there'll be much less people registering the bloody social club!

I think the Challenger DUB is the only good looking DUB car if any, the rest look like a toddler was given a crayon set to draw the bodykits on with.

Welcome Sunny. You'll like it here, everyone does.

Nice one, shame it's pretty hideious imo.

As a Camaro fan, it is my opinion that nearly all body kits make the Camaro uglier. In fact, this is true for essentially every car in the game. Most of my cars have stock front bumpers etc because the stock versions look better.

I would have said the Merc was the best Dub.

I lold at turbos comment too to be honest.

This is gonna be the only car with DUB edition that I'll kept in my garage. 👍
