I was driving over a bridge in San Fiero Island and this srange light was hovering over it.



Now post wierd stuff that happened to you in any GTA game.
 
Oftentimes I find a policecar's nose half-buried in the ground. And I mean literally stuck. No amount of shooting, ramming or kicking removes it.

Yeah Its probably supposed to be an alien. You should've seen the craze sighting of Big Foot in the game had...
 
I get weird things ever now and then. This is one of them.



Usually when I get glitches like this, the game usually crashes shortly after.

I only get stuff like that when I Alt-Tab out of the game. Press Escape to go to the menu before Alt-Tabbing.
 
Not glitches, but I like it when the AI does stuff and you walk into it.

For example, I just drove around really fast on a motorbike, jumped down the hill in a street and rolled over a cop car. The cop was out shooting over his bonnet at some guy on the run. It was so unexpected, it was awesome!

And this other time I was on a push bike, I got knocked off and went to go and pick up my bike. Turned around and a truck cab was flying through the air towards me :D

probably not, it was hovering about 8 foot off the ground.

It's not so fun when you have to lead someone on foot to a location, then some NPC comes screaming around a corner and runs him over... mission failed.
 
those bright lights are nothing strange...

they are the 'special packages' of san fierro, in other words, get a camera, zoom in on the light and take a picture to collect it.
 
i read something about a bigfoot type creature in the woods outside san fierro over at gamefaqs, might have been bs though.

It is. A buncha people e-mailed R* if there was a big foot in SA and they said there wasn't. But, there's a lot of weird shit in Back O' Beyond or whatever its called. So far, I've only found the Ghost Car and the shack with a wheel chair and blood all over it.
 
It's BS, been confirmed. Sounds like a really interesting easter egg, I'm surprised they didn't actually add it.
 
what other weird things are in the game?

Is that the one where the wheelchair is at the end of a dock type thing?

There was supposed to be a triathalon mission you could access there too, but maybe it got removed.
 
Yeah thats the one.

Remember guys, all the freaky stuff happens in Back O' Beyond and Shady...whatever its called at night. And its scary as hell to...

Scary stuff o__o!

...That's really the only way I can describe it...Take a car or better yet parachute into Back O Beyond during the night (whenever you get the game) and you'll see.
 
Mines really weird.

*POSSIBLE SPOILER, NOT IN TERMS OF STORY BUT A MISSION*

I just got to Las Venturas and I'm trying to do woozies first mission there. However, when the cutscene starts with CJ about to drive the car with the italian guy strapped to the front of it out of the garage, the car sounds like its hitting something and it just stays in the cutscene as i watch cj's back tire try to go out of the garage but he never does.

Thus, im at a complete standstill in the game because I cannot do the mission lol.
 
Oh and I just did the back o beyond thing and found nothing. just a few busted up glendales thats did nothing when i got inside them. where is all this weird scary shit?

It's not a problem. It's the SF Photo Ops.
I just found that out last night :)
 
Spoiler about mission.

On the US jet mission it bugged so I couldnt turn the engine things back to forward, so I had to fly the jet like a heli while taking out the other jets and spy ships

Don't you know you can skip those cutscenes with space or enter? Happened to me too, but I just hit a button and the problem was solved after seconds.

Happens to me to. Also I have gone into a pizza place jumped on the counter, then jumped through the roof onto the top of a light, walked on nothing to the outside of a shop and fell for 40 seconds before dieing.

I swear it was suppost to happen! I have found glitches to go through the level in every GTA so far (since 3). I have fun finding glitches in GTA games as there is so many!

Theres a car (which is called 'The Ghost Car') which is all battered with its windows smashed, etc. Looks like someone took someone else into the woods and killed them or soemthing. But yeah, pretty creepy place. I was going through once to get to Angel Pine around 9/10 o' clock and all the mist and fog started rolling in on me. Couldn't see shit. I'm going to venture around tonight.

Yeah I just got one. I just (I'm playing it now) walked onto the Cranberry Trainstation and saw a bright light in the air. I thought it was a disco ball at first. :\ Then I zoomed in and snapped it and it said '1 of 50 Sanpshots' - woo, go me.

d00d, your not supposed to go in them. Next time you see the glendale, run away some yards and then look back. The car should start driving by itself with no one in it.

You can't skip that one which is annoying when doing the mission on repeat attempts.

I have a weird problem at the moment in LV where a cutscene's audio starts at the halfway through the sound clip so the audio is out of synch with the actions and subs. It's annoying. :( May work again now that I have quit though.

EDIT: To avoid double posting in the other GTA thread, how do I do the first motorcycle school mission? When I press the keys it tells me to, the bike sits still and it makes the beeping noise that the PC does when you press too many keys. But the same key co=mbination worked on the driving school. Any ideas?

I had that too, so I enabled mouse steering for that test and did it with the mouse. So I held S and W on the keyboard and then turned with the mouse. My keyboard doesn't have limits button pressing limits,I guess.
 
I don't effing believe it. Trying to get Paul and Maccer back to a casino, they won't get in the car and they have a conversation outside of it. A plane (on fire) crashes on them. :|

WAS IT WEIRD OR WHAT?!

Oh and I still have no idea how to buy Wang's Auto place. I beat the game yet I still can't buy it. wtf.
 
Bigfoot is real in the PS2 version.

I saw him ride past me on a moped!

Well...with the car you were driving, and the bridge you were driving over, that's like 2 bits away from a scene outta Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

Edit: After reading the entire thread, it seems as if the PC version of this game is riddled with bugs. Glad I got the PS2 version, huh-huh!
