![]() Again, it didn’t end well.įranklin didn’t fare any better and while I figured Trevor would be too angry to drown, a screen-filling WASTED proved me wrong. Maybe I wasn’t swimming fast enough, I reasoned, so I took to hammering the sprint button. So, instead of breaking the surface, surrounded by the peaks of Lost Santos’s skyscrapers, Michael expired before he so much as saw sunlight. It probably wouldn’t have been as much fun, though. In fact, if I’d thought for even a minute, this whole mess could have been averted. If I’d done the remotest amount of research I’d have learnt that’s a good third as much again as the Eiffel Tower. ![]() The truth is, I thought 500m sounded like a cool, round number and away I went. I’d like to blame Subnautica for my folly, for making me think that there’d be oxygen plants I could refill Michael and co’s lungs with, but that’s a pretty threadbare excuse. The bad news is, as I merrily installed “500m Flood, Calm”, I hadn’t really thought about just how deep the water would be. ![]() The good news is that the latest version of GTA 5 prevents you from going online with mods installed, so I was in no danger of getting banned. There were a few exceptions but I’ll get to those later. I’d already disabled pedestrians and traffic, so it was just Trevor, Franklin and Michael that ended up suffering. Here's Franklin, floating with some crisps.Īdmittedly, a significant portion of the chaos was down to my own blatant stupidity, though I should add that it wasn’t the general populace that got turned into fish-food. This long-forgotten idea resurfaced and, after finding a mod that worked (I drew a blank with the first one), Grand Theft Auto 5: The Drownening began. That was, until, the other week, when YouTube’s algorithm threw up another underwater GTA 5 video, this time from the PC version of the game. But, since I didn’t want to risk being banned from PlayStation Network, I never got around to experiencing the joys of soggy Los Santos. ![]() It was an impressive and unsettling sight, reminiscent of some big-budget disaster movie. I watched a YouTube video of just such a mod in action, with the sea level raised so high that only the tops of buildings were visible. It's amazing a game this old can look this good.> ![]()
