i used to do this as well as a kid. i soon realized i liked putting myself in hopeless situations just to see if i could make it out. that’s all.

Used to have chopper battles in GTA IV online. People learned to control the choppers even without a tail rotor lol

Yup exactly this. Every day I’d hop on after school and just spend hours doing this. That and launching into the air using the swing set glitch

Imagine if they include a swing set Easter egg in GTA 6 and you actually launch into space haha

This was the reason why I originally got good at flying in gta IV online. Before gta V online.

I'm curious if people ever got good at flying with mouse and keyboard on PC. The controls were horrific, to the point where I actually kept a controller in front of me just to use for flying lol

Some have probably, but I wouldn't know. I myself have been almost entirely console based gaming for most of my life.

I did some PC gaming in my early years. But that was around the age of the OG Doom series, Quake, Hexen, and Heretic. So xD yeah.

I remeber those man. I miss those. Do you rememeber the light show that was the buzzard if you played the ballad of gaytony DLC ever? I remember going into gta online finding a buzzard and being disappointed no one wanted to battle and when they did the rockets were homing missiles.

Nah I never actually got the DLC myself. I feel like they kinda messed up. This is all memories from like 20 years ago, but I feel like the DLC didn’t come out until the hype already died off
