Grand Thumb Auto XV: Significant Digits

[miffy495]

Holy crap, we've been doing this for 15 weeks.

Anyway, I'm working on the assumption that the game will be running at the usual time this week (4pm EST/1pm PST/2100GMT) and Lost And Damned is a good thing to have in your possession. I myself will need to duck out after the first hour, as I'm giving an hour long presentation to my class on Wednesday morning and need to prepare for it, but hopefully with ysbreker back online there will at least be more people than has become the norm for a while.

Standard invitation applies. If you're a thumb, online at that time, have one of us on your friends list (I can confirm that I'll accept invites from anyone I recognize from the XBL Gamertag exchange thread, if you don't yet meet that requirement) and want to play some GTAIV, sign the hell on and join up. It's all relaxed, actual competition is one of the last things on our minds, and it's just a fun way to kill an afternoon/evening. Hope to see some of you folks tomorrow!

To everyone playing tonight,

FUCK YOU

I think I might be able to make this evening... Woohoo!

I bought it this lunchtime, started it downloading, and intend to get back home before 21:00

Very true. It looks like attendance may be up this week too! Pity I have to run away so early, but at least I'll get to see some of it.

This is a complete fucking pile of shit. I've been trying to connect to multiplayer for an hour now, and it seems TLAD is going to make me play through all the preamble missions before I can.

[Nachimir]

The most impressive thing about TLAD is that you need a save game before you can join multiplayer, and it doesn't tell you that, just a cryptic "Failed to connect", and playing through dull tutorial missions while your friends are elswhere blowing the shit out of each other is amazing fun.

It only took 80 minutes to find out what was going wrong and finally join a game tonight :tup::tup:

Ok, but club business is pretty good. Like the good bits of GTA single player missions, but coop, and without the tedious driving between locations to pick up missions.

Glad you had fun when you finally got online. Sorry I'd had to leave before that point. Next week, you'll be able to connect, and I won't have to leave after an hour. Better times ahead? Looks like it.

Hopefully I'll also have my Xbox up and running too, as well, which I know is what you've really been waiting for.
