zmurko 7,622 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 HI, my name is zmurko/zmurko76. I haven't really played and video games since my high school/college days, apart from occasional Civilization session or every few years when new Need for speed game came out, all on PC. At the beginning of this year, for reasons I can't really remember, I decided to try out GTA IV and immediately fell in love and got addicted (going to bed at 4am after saving the game at midnight kind of addicted). Soon after finishing it I started watching GTA 5 youtube videos and with the PC release date unknown, I couldnt resist myself and actually bought myself my first gaming console (PS3). Now, I'm not sure if its the biggest mistake I've made or the best thing thats happened to me as I find myself playing GTA 5 more than a 38 year old probably should. Hardest thing to do was train my useless left arm to use the bloody stick and to conquer all the buttons. Think I somehow got the hang of it now, still can't drive and shoot though, I usually kill 1/2 of Los Santos before I can hit the driver with my machine gun. Anyway, after completing the storyline and playing online solo for a while I'd like to explore all the wonderful features game has to offer and so after a bit of browsing, I came to this place and hopefully I wont have to do it with 13 year olds. Who knows, perhaps I'll even find my new favourite thing to do in GTA. For now, I mostly enjoy missions, especially those where I can use my sniper rifle and would also love to play missions designed for more than 1 player. Don't expect me to storm in, kill them all and drive off, as I prefer a slow and causcious approach, scout the place, snipe as many of the enemies as possible from as far as possible and then take whatever is necessary. Apart from playing GTA 5 more than I should, I enjoy a good brew (discovered smoked stouts and dark german wheat beers recently and can't get enough of them), good food (I even consider myself a good cook), TV shows and sports (mostly watching it, though I used to do them myself in the past much more often, not sure what happened lol). Enough rambling (who's gonna read all that anyway), hopefully I can get an invite into your group and start meeting you all doing fun things around San Andreas soon. Any more questions, I'll try my best. 2 Quote S U N D A Y R A C I N G L E A G U E Link to comment

JustHatched 12,103 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Welcome, I sent you a crew invite. No worries, I play more than a 38 (soon 39) year old should, but that can be said for most of the crew.

Matusware 608 Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 Hello My Name Is Matusware and im a GTA Addict *looks around and looks at the topic* Ok..it seems that im at the wrong topic again *cough* Welcome zmurko To The Domestic Battery Crew ^^ "Anyway, after completing the storyline and playing online solo for a while I'd like to explore all the wonderful features game has to offer and so after a bit of browsing, I came to this place and hopefully I wont have to do it with 13 year olds. Who knows, perhaps I'll even find my new favourite thing to do in GTA." oh dontcha worry mate you dont have to play any 13 year olds with here, we are all...seasoned..gamers here and bit insane..well i am.. so i think you will not find any problems to fit right in, GTA is filled of things to do and cause its sandbox game you can always make your own things "For now, I mostly enjoy missions, especially those where I can use my sniper rifle and would also love to play missions designed for more than 1 player. Don't expect me to storm in, kill them all and drive off, as I prefer a slow and causcious approach, scout the place, snipe as many of the enemies as possible from as far as possible and then take whatever is necessary." that sounds like "ghost recon" style to my ear, and its good, causcious approach have saved my arse more than once "Apart from playing GTA 5 more than I should, I enjoy a good brew (discovered smoked stouts and dark german wheat beers recently and can't get enough of them), good food (I even consider myself a good cook), TV shows and sports (mostly watching it, though I used to do them myself in the past much more often, not sure what happened lol)."

Even took someone (desuno?) for the ride on top of Maze building. Btw, is there a way to communicate/chat inside the game without a microphone?

zmurko 7,622 Posted April 28, 2014 Author Share Posted April 28, 2014 Thanks. Also, my sincere apologies to those on my team during my first capture and deathmatch events. I had no idea what I was doing 95% of the time. Not my cup of tea, at least not for now. Quote S U N D A Y R A C I N G L E A G U E Link to comment

LN-MLB 2,583 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Welcome to the crew! Much like you, I'm also in my 30s and probably play more than I should; it's addictive though and the crew is what makes it such a great experience. Also glad to see that you appreciate quality beer. I am also quite the fan of dark beer, and find myself reaching mostly for porters and stouts. Quote Link to comment
