[QUOTE="unr3stricted, post: 0]Why the hell can I not see the multiplayer portion of GTA IV? I have no idea how to get into it... Any help?[/quote]

Go into your cell phone, and it's called Multiplayer. It's one of your phone options.

[QUOTE="unr3stricted, post: 0]Thank you! I have no idea why they didn't just create a start of game menu for this thing... so stupid.[/quote]

I think their intent was that you were "calling others" to play the game with you. I didn't figure it out right away either.

You are welcome!

i actually how how seamlessly integrated it is... no break between the action, and you go to a game real quick.. it basically loads for like 10 seconds.

[QUOTE="A7MAD, post: 0]I like that R* did it that way, I guess it's different strokes for different folks.[/quote]

Now that I found it, I too like it that way. It's subtle, and keeps the HUD in the game more fluid and movie like.

To be honest i dont understand the big deal about the MP in GTA4,i find it quite boring,most servers has auto aim on aswell,so it feels just like playing single player (without needing any aim skills at all).

The only part of the multiplayer I have enjoyed thus far is the online free roam. Endless carnage and fun with friends! I as well like the idea of having it accessed through your character's cellphone. It makes more a more organized interface, and game experience.

Thats how all GTA has been no main menu screen, since the game is a big open world i guess they need to suffer some things.

i found that unless you have a bunch of player with you that their is accually to much room for say two or three people but i like tha they accually put it in this one unlike SA which had some mp stuff but you had to share a screen and a vehicle which was horrible

Yeah San Andreas was the stepping stone for a "true" multiplayer experience. Even though it was horrible I still had some fun with it though.

well yeah im not gonna lie and say it wasnt **** at first but then you would just get kinda sick of the person being in your car and on your screen but you cant do any thing about it and if you got to close to them and hit L1 then you would lean over and kiss them with was soo dumb

I never did understand why R* added that to the game. I don't know how many times I accidentally hit that button and kissed the other character. :lol: Perhaps funny the first time then downright annoying after that!

i have no idea but yeah it got annoying fast and the fact that if one of you died then you would have to start back at the mp thing then go thru the vid again that was anyoing but now its nice cuz you can just respawn

I dig hangman's noose when there's something like 4 people. It's challenging. Also, I had a wicked fun time on the Team Mafya with a 50,000$ limit. That was long, challenging and crazy fun!

Team deathmatches are also quite alluring...
