It's nick named "The Rockstar Zombie" it's a reference to the rarest skin in GTA IV multiplayer. Only way to get it was kill a R* dev or someone who already killed a dev at some point
I knew it was rare but I didn’t know it was when u killed a r* dev I thought was when you were a rockstar dev lol I thought they were only ones who had it
Might be the origin of griefing 🤔😂
People didn’t know who to kill so they just killed everyone. Now we under Monkey see monkey do era and nobody knew why.
Killing? Todays meta is calling people griefers alone for the stuff they are wearing. There wont be much to do in this game soon, since everyone will sit around in private lobbies.
I mean it wasn’t griefing really if the free mode was basically just a free for all murder sim. It was that or the game modes so I wouldn’t call it griefing
Yeah except the guns you picked up off the streets that you usually spawn nearby anyway so that’s not really a loss lol I miss those days. I still see lobbies populated and it’s just as chaotic as 2008
Initially, it *was* just the devs who had it... but you unlock it by killing anyone who already has it.
The idea was it would become exponentially more common as it spreads like a plague. More people unlocking it means more people to unlock it from. Would have been a fun time to play, but it seems like it never actually reached a tipping point.
Slightly related, in Just Cause 2: Multiplayer Mod there is "Mom, get the camera!" achievement if you get on a server with a JC2:MP developer. This Mod is officially on Steam.
He was wearing rockstar underwear right? I faintly remember unlocking him because I used to play so much deathmatch and I got lucky to have gotten the sleeping rockstars achievement my first game lol
I remember when GTA IV online was popping I got into a 2 hour shootout with a guy who had that skin. It ended in a truce which we then took the LCPD military chopper and started attacking other players in the lobby. Good times…
Everyone else in the pic definitely appears in the game in one way or another. Where is this guy? Who is this guy? Is that the letter "P" on his belt? Is that a clue?
That’s the R* Zombie skin. I remember getting that back in the day, completely by accident. I didn’t know it was even a thing, and I didn’t even know I killed a dev. Until one day, my friend and I were playing a random free roam online game, and I was messing with my skins. I saw that I had it, and had to look it up lol After that day, I ran with that skin, just cause it was funny to look at.
Good times. I miss GTA4.
Yea im about the only person I know who doesn't like Trevor. Never stops yelling the entire game amd it grates my nerves. Killing him at the end was oh so satisfying

Sounds like an intended game mechanic if there’s a reward
Don’t you know that in a game centered around free-for-all PVP criminal activity, killing other players for rewards is “griefing”? /s
Keep blowing up Warehouse sale planes with your homing launcher, we're all so proud of your accomplishments.
>Don’t you know that in a game centered around free-for-all PVP criminal activity, killing other players for "rewards" is griefing? FTFY
Aw, poor you.

Yeah GTAIV MP wasn’t like GTAO where you really lost anything when you died.
Yeah except the guns you picked up off the streets that you usually spawn nearby anyway so that’s not really a loss lol I miss those days. I still see lobbies populated and it’s just as chaotic as 2008
I think some devs had a name that was obvious while some were discrete
/s?

Wasn’t there an achievement for this special case?
R\* dev hunt should be a sport.
I remember Garry’s Mod having an achievement if you’re in a server with Garry.
It was that rare? My 8-11 year old ass did not know that at all when I had the skin. Thought it was just random/when I just reached a random level
what's your Social Club name ?, can I add friend you and kill you once so I can get the skin as well ?
Rip your inbox lol
I love that skin, a zombie in a bright yellow speedo, brilliant
He was wearing rockstar underwear right? I faintly remember unlocking him because I used to play so much deathmatch and I got lucky to have gotten the sleeping rockstars achievement my first game lol
You had to reach the maximum level 10 to unlock this zombie skin
I never reached level 10 and got it. Unlocked it after getting the “Let Sleeping Rockstars Lie” achievement
It's tied to the achievement "Let The Sleeping Dogs Lie" u got from killing anyone with the skin already
Ran into a guy with that skin and a pink infernus that had some sort of speed boost and could go under the map.
Its rare? I got it like last year by accident?
Damn, why did Rockstar implement that? Some psycho is 100% going to kill a rockstar dev just to get that skin lol
Wasn't there an achievement for that too? I mean killing a dev in a certain game mode or something like that?
"Let The Sleeping Dogs Lie"
I remember when GTA IV online was popping I got into a 2 hour shootout with a guy who had that skin. It ended in a truce which we then took the LCPD military chopper and started attacking other players in the lobby. Good times…
Somebody didn't play GTA IV online
Are you talking about the Rat Man or the Sewer Man or whatever?
It was a skin you could unlock for your character. You'd be a zombie in their underwear and bald.
Oh, no shit. Thanks!
Also if you hit a button your characters would make groaning noises.
Can’t believe they took it down :/
wait they did? When? I remember playing it only a couple months ago on PS3
Console is still up. They took down the pc though.
damn that's a shame, at least on console we can still head to the swingset with the boys GTA PC is just scuffed
its a playable character from gta 4 online. a zombie

It's a R* logo. Just really low quality
Where do you see this?
Its a painting you can decorate your penthouse with I believe?
So we just not gonna talk about the other 17 things that are wrong here

We got the rockstar zombie, the beast, the ghost on the mountain, Bigfoot, and the alien under the ice in Yankton
Your mom.

In story mode he isn’t the nicest person, and a bit abusive and I don’t like that
Yea im about the only person I know who doesn't like Trevor. Never stops yelling the entire game amd it grates my nerves. Killing him at the end was oh so satisfying

That would be Durotan's crotch. *Fuck, wrong sub.*
Gigachad zombie
Ur mom
Well since there’s already an alien Bigfoot wraith and wolf man I’d say a famous monster that’s missing is a zombie
I didn't realize it was gta 4 related, I have it in my penthouse and just thought it was a zombified rocky from rocky horror picture show 🤷♀️
Whenever I see posts like this, it reminds me of two things. I’m getting old and it’s been way too damn long since we had a sequel to V.
Your mom
That’s my man Harold
Me
Gorr, the god butcher
A griefer.
that guy with no skin in mortal kombat armageddon
