Liberty City is modeled after New York, which is a crime ridden city in many of its sections, Bohan as said by someone else, is a parody of The Bronx, one of the most dangerous places in the U.S. If you'd like to hear about some of the day to day policing there, visit a website or download an app for your phone that has police scanners from around the world. There are several channels for New York City. I downloaded 'Scanner Radio' a few years ago, and the first time I tuned into 'The Bronx' area command, there was a police pursuit of a stolen car going on at 8am in the morning. Some cities are worse, but not many. Miami Florida is the murder capital of the U.S., Los Angeles California is the police pursuit capital of the U.S., Washington state is the crystal methamphetamine capital of the U.S., etc. Poor folks indeed.

The pre-9/11 intelligence wasn't taken seriously enough, as far as I can tell. And the Boston Marathon bombing we had very little intelligence on, other than a report from Moscow, Russia saying that they didn't like the two kids and thought they were dangerous, but didn't have any actual evidence to help convict them of a crime. People are so busy talking about how America is becoming a police state, and also saying that our government doesn't do squat. Lemme clue some folks on this website into something: America would be a police state if we started arresting random foreigners for being suspicious and nothing more. That's what it would have taken to prevent 9/11 and the Boston Marathon bombings. We don't do that. Instead, our security agencies have to play it like the police do, and try to work within the boundaries of the law. And therefore, they can take no action unless they can convict someone of a crime. Our government is now working to re-write the laws to allow for more intrusion into things we regard as private, and I can understand that's unnerving. But I've always maintained that you can't have both absolute freedom, and absolute security. It will either be 100% of one and none of the other, or a dull mixture of the two, which is what most first world countries have now. We can either learn to deal with it, or move someplace else. That's all there is to it. And I agree with cp702 about the U.S. government's efforts. The news reports tell people about the things they failed to prevent. You never hear about what they achieved. There's a quote I'll always remember from the movie 'The Recruit', which is about the C.I.A. One of the teachers at "The Farm" where C.I.A. agents are made said: "Our failures are known, our successes are not." This is the way of life for many government agents; police, intelligence, military, or otherwise.

Has anybody seen this yet? I missed it the other night, so I'm recording it on my DVR since it's re-showing around 4am this morning, and I'll watch it tomorrow. Check out this trailer, I think it's great.

When you pull over a vehicle with a single occupant and you approach the passenger side of the vehicle, the driver switches seats.

Luis's reply to you:

Can you detain my boss? I'm pretty sure he's a terrorist, along with the entire leadership of my company. I can Photoshop C4 bricks into their hands in a company photo if you'd like some evidence.

I haven't used ImageShack for a year or two now due to their continued restrictions.

I once pulled over Luis from EFLC pretty close to where he lives during my closed beta testing, but he also had a different name. Oddly enough, he had drugs on him, and I arrested him and put him in the back of my car. Something he's probably pretty used to. lol

It's random chance. I actually feel as though I don't get enough pursuits or people who resist me in some cases. Other times I get world events rapid fire.

Speeding police like that is pretty common, actually. They'll sometimes do that to sneak up on a driver they're going to pull over, other times they do it to overtake someone. 65mph is the speed limit on a highway in most cases, but you're able to break that temporarily if you're trying to overtake someone.

I've seen slightly dirty uniforms (although not horribly messy) myself, since they commonly pass by or come into my place of business, and the winter snow cover problem is 100% true. I would have taken a picture but I don't want to do that while I'm driving. I've never had one give me an attitude since I've never been pulled over in Massachusetts before. It's not as though local cops don't screw up, though. A local female officer was on the side of the road, standing on the white paint leaning into the window of some old lady casually talking to her. Her patrol car didn't have her overheads or any hazard lights on, and she motioned to me to slow down while I was on the opposite side of the road, as if I was the one causing a safety issue instead of her.

The general population hates them based on their conduct, and other agencies in different nearby states note their dirty cruisers and unkempt uniforms. I saw a new trooper SUV the other day during a snow storm that had the entire rear of the car completely covered in snow. The back windshield, the tail lights, everything. Only the top hazards were visible, and this was on Highway 95 at the scene of an accident. The troopers write people citations for having snow on the roof or covering lights of the car, and here was a trooper in a brand new SUV apparently aching to lose his job and get his vehicle totaled at tax-payer expense.

Have you tried lowering your details to see if you actually are running out of video memory?

I live in Mass too, most people would reply that you'd be their first big fan. They have a bad reputation state wide. Anyway, good textures and models. Someone needs to get going on the Ford Interceptor Taurus though. They're quickly doing away with their crown vics around my part of the state.

I'll sum up what others are trying to say in once sentence for you: Blow two grand on your Macbook alone, plus a copy of Windows and you can probably run the game with mediocre settings. Happy hunting.

It's ugly, but I like the idea of it, since some people like the idea of self-building but don't have the technical know-how to do it. It would definitely put a dent in profits of companies that sell gaming or even standardized PCs currently.

He said 150,000 miles. With a Crown Victoria being what it is (a lumbering, 135mph limited, V8 heavyweight), I dunno how you'd get that confused with super car money, as you mentioned yourself.

Every country knows that. We're the best armed nation from a nuclear weapons standpoint and we have pretty large standing army, navy and air force.

It looks like it's built out of LEGOs. All the colors are really saturated, there is no sense of bump mapping on the textures and the draw distance is non-existent. It's unique, I'll give you that. But anyway, I'd guess it's most likely a car mod crash. That's what most of mine are.

I thought about that too, actually. And Russia still considers us their #1 military threat. Russian Navy and Army generals will tell you themselves that during drills simulating a war time scenario, the 'OpFor' is almost always us. China has an uptight government, no two ways about it.

I'm sure it has absolutely nothing to do with you being in multiplayer, with car mods, and an ENB that makes everything look like it's made out of LEGOs.

Maybe from an economic standpoint. That doesn't mean they'll have a better military or that the money the government gets will trickle down to its people. Plenty of countries have wealthy governments but impoverished citizens.

Nah it depends on standards. If you wanna blow your own mind with how amazing computer graphics can be, that's when you lay down $1500 or whatever. It's possible to have a pretty powerful PC around $800, and a mediocre one around $600-700.

That's even worse than the one he posted.
