The game told me last night that other players had reported me and I was in danger of being booted off the session for bad behaviour
Seem to be more with the missions if you grief in them or leave before it's finished, freeplay you can do what you want.

No, in this case it was definitely someone reacting to me killing them in free play. It was a guy you were trying to run over I think Drac. I got out my car and shot him. The message was that others had reported me. I haven't bailed any missions.

Think there is a facility to report people for being abusive on the headsets - and they misused that cos I shot him!

Completed single player a while back, found it very entertaining but ultimately a bit too easy.
Online is just as entertaining but for different reasons.

Ha ha.. Gotta laugh at folk using a report button on an 18 rated game..

On that theme, is there a quick way to mute inane thick people or ****s who play their own shit music while online like there is on games like Cod etc?

Drac - that was me today.

Brilliant fun but your dress sense was slightly off putting. That dress is a bit short !!

I think that is one of my fave missions as you do make a lot of progress as you said.

I thought you were rather good - better than I was although it got more even as we played more.

I tended to take Lifers strategy of waiting for them to come at you. With 2 or 3 people covering each other there is more chance of progress. I've managed to cover 9 waves with others doing this strategy ang got nearly $15k

Playing with Crew members is the best. A few nights ago I had fun with someone (forget who now) in a heliopter - one of us flew and the other picked off people until we flew into the military base and got 4 stars.

Hold select and scroll down to chat options then select 'crew and friends' that way you only hear them.

Or start then players and mute the muppets.

Ah Ok. Couldn't remember who to match the PSN names with.

Hahaha yeah she's dressed up like a tart it gets a few comments. For some reason she's had lost her hair before joining you and it's still gone so off to the barbers when I go online later.

Playing in a group is definitely better just not easy to see who's online for invites.

Yeah, that was me, in the helicopter, think I heard you say you had no ammo/weapons so tried to help out. Without a headset myself I'm not sure I cottoned on to your objective though, we're you trying to steal a fighter jet?

Anyone give any recommendations for a decent cheap(ish) PS3 headset?

Pretty sure you can't change PSN name unless you open a new account

That's what I use but don't think paid that much, the sound quality is very good though as is the mic.

I may change my character to a woman, the choice of trashy clothes is so much better.

Yeah they're not cheap anymore I'm sure I got them for £25.

Part of the reason Molgrips was that my first character was female but she vanished during the intial bugs so created a male but couldn't seem to get the trashy look. So went for a female and dressed her errrmmmm well provocatively but also tried to make her look ugly.

Has anyone got the deluxe version where if you shine a uv light on the back of the map it gives you clues to new missions...or are we allnot that geeky?

My character is male but looks like shit. I originally had one that looked like Pete Doherty on a bad morning but now I just look like a scumbag in Pete Doherty's clothes.

Drac, I'm assuming it's you playing as Dracy on survival. I'm not sure how I'm managing to play given I'm only on level 7, but I am having great fun; thanks for hosting. Apologies for the lack of tactics, but I have no mic.

It was me you got on through an invite. Tactics seemed to work and I wouldn't have heard anyway as didn't realise I had the chat volume turned off on the headphones until I played another round later on with Marko.

A good laugh cheers catch you on again soon.

It was interesting to see that the survivor crew last night were all playing as ladies.

Why do you need to bank your money when playing online? The game alerts me that I'm carrying more than 5k and that I should bank it before I get robbed, but when you kill someone they only drop $100. Am I missing something? Is there a way to rob someone?

Also if anyone wants to play some survival mode on XBOX, add me (gamertag: Chuck Morr1s)

Drac and I are the Drama Queens of GTA survivor. Anyone messes with our makeup or forces us to duck our heads out of trouble (and messing our hair) is definitely going to get into trouble!

Good to see that we completed the railway survivor though!

Last night was my first experience of survivor, and I'm curious as to how you complete it. Do the waves not just get bigger and bigger until you can take no more?

I've only done the Sandy Shores one so if you see me lurking please send me an invite to the railway one too.

First for me too managed to finish one last night, the waves get bigger and tougher. Seems to be the secret to get good cover and to make sure between all that are on you cover are able to cover each other. I'll be on tonight as the wife is going out.

I think survivor is great fun - lots of points and a good way to collect guns.

Sandy shores is a blast, as Drac found out yesterday if you make a stand within the square, one person on the dumpster and the others providing flanking support its quite an effective strategy.

If there is a group of you and the final 'victim' is left - gather up all the weapons and ammo. Once the last guy dies more weapons and new health/vest/weapons are available.

Good tips Marko.

Just been on quickly to get my personal plate sorted for my car and to pimp her out in some new clothes.

What level do I need to be to unlock survivor then?

Think I'm a 10 or 11 right now.

Keen to have a go at this

Online mode is cool. Leveling up atm, i have a set of [url= http://http://www.amazon.com/Sennheiser-PC-151-Noise-Canceling-Microphone/dp/B000NOR89Y/ref=pd_sim_sbs_e_1 ]sennheiser p151[/url] and don't know how to connect them to PS3. Is there any adapters of some sort to enable microphone? I can plug them into TV to get sound, but no idea how to work out microphone function.

Friend of mine teamed up with yankee, bonded well ... grinded over 4 hours together playing missions. At the end he was run over by said friend and robbed off with all monies earned. GTA style!

Had a good couple of rounds with Drac. Even of my driving was a little special.

Must dig out the headset for next time.

So is anyone else's single-player game completely shafted? After the last update I lost the ability to change characters, finally got the message about getting exiled, so got left with Franklin and no missions to do - awesumz 🙁

So, tonight I made it several times through a survival mission - survive wave 10 and get 3400xp and $20000.

You also get to keep the weapons and ammo you finished with - I'd managed to collect and not use a mini gun! Chopper downtown and land on the roof overlooking Simeone's and the ammunation.

I'm a bad man - sat up there picking off mission finishing unsuspecting players with 2second bursts from the minigun! Happy days.

Servers are playing up tonight so hard to get on missions, managed one with some randoms to steal a plane. Nice cash reward and points for that one. Meant I unlocked stick bombs. So had fun driving in freemode sticking them players cars as I drove past then blowing them up.
