It appears the game will stay in the US setting with any rumors of a return to London or a new non-US place was squashed.

Also teased was the producer from GTA III and Red Dead Redemption, Dan Houser, is in charge of the project and GTA V could have a more "Hollywood"-like style cinema feel as a result. http://www.igta5.com/playstation-off...rking-on-gta-v |
Vice City was the place to be. Loved it. Such an effect a game can have was beyond me till I played that. More please.
|
Vice City had the most awesome feel to it, I agree.

I didn't care for VC much. Map was too small, didn't really care about the story and I quickly got sick of playing a "tough guy" like Tommy. Same goes for CJ. The whole cartoony "I'm a tough street/mafia thug" thing was a big turn off in terms of liking the characters.
That's why I liked Niko so much. He was human and I hope the next guy is closer to Niko than CJ or Tommy. I'm also hoping the story isn't an "everything worked out for your character and now he's rich, famous and in charge" story. |

if you type in gta 5 on google it brings up rockstars san andreas page, make of that what you will :'(

HEY GUYS, ROCKSTAR IS MAKING GRAND THEFT AUTO V
http://bulk2.destructoid.com/images/ui/authorpoint.gif42 minutes ago - 6:45 AM on 10.25.2011 | Conrad Zimmerman http://bulk2.destructoid.com/images/ui/smcomment.gif28 comments http://bulk.destructoid.com/ul/214496-hd.jpg Take a deep breath everyone. Rockstar Games has updated their website with a splash screen showing the logo of a Grand Theft Auto V. No word on release of the actual game, but they did have a street date of November 2nd for the first trailer which is almost as good as having actual news about a game. Helpful of them to clarify that Roman numeral in the logo. Wouldn't want confusion. Lead them to thinking that since dinosaurs are the new zombies, maybe it's Grand Theft Auto Velociraptor. Or perhaps folks might suspect it's centered around the adventures of a crotchety old police detective in Greenwich village, because I would totally play Grand Theft Auto Vigoda. Thank God Rockstar is aware of the intellectual capacity of the audience that it sells complex, adult-oriented entertainment to. |
Now I just want Grand Theft Auto Velociraptor :'(
|
|
Those 3 at least better be real. Rich Roberts needs to be an ex football player too. |
It's got me thinking.
Maybe in GTA V you play as a cop or an FBI agent, but you do crimes for money or something along those lines, as the V in the GTA V logo looks like it's supposed to represent money. (The Dollar) |
Maybe you play as a counterfeiter.

Finally, I can shoot those anonymous twats. |
It'll be San Andreas. The artwork of that V and the stuff around it is like the art used for SA.
On top of that, the cast of characters includes actors, cult leaders, yoga teachers, Agents, wacked out mothers. All very California. |
Can we get anonymous in there somehow? I'd still like to hunt them for sport, and the real world has laws treating them as human. :'(
|
They could dump a group of hackers called "Faceless" or something in the game and have a mission where they bring down a network or system of someone they believe is "corrupt". Maybe a Ruport Murdoch like figure.
It turns out they are right, he is corrupt. Corrupt enough to hire you to go to each of their houses around SA and kill them. That could work as either one mission where you go from point A to B to C to D and kill them one at a time or it could be spread out into multiple missions, taking them down one at a time. One could be a stealth mission, another could be a car chase etc. |
They could tie it in with GTA IV and have the guy being hacked the head of Weazle.

-There is a blog from a guy who *claims* he knows people who work for Rockstar.
-He says it will take place in Chicago, Miami, or LA again -Officer's Tenpenny and partner will be back (one was played by the late Chris Penn) -You will have to types of 'karma' points, because you will start out as a COP. You can choose to do good for the law, or bad for the criminals. |

Why, he probably even said it could happen in Tokyo. |
And Tenpenny wont be back for two reasons.
1) He's from the GTA III era. R* have said multiple times that the GTA III era is dead. You'll never see CJ, Tenpenny, Claude, Tommy, Rosenburg, El Buro, 8-Ball etc again. 2) San Andreas Spoiler?: SPOILER: show |

Yeah, for such a new gen game it has a 2nd gen look. Ugh, probably won't buy it now.
|
And that bike did NOT handle realistically. What kind of physics engine are they using?
Do they even have one? |
The soundtrack is terrible, they should have some Justin Bieber playing, it would fit the 80's theme so well.

:lol: the date on the trailer was specifically chosen because it is the 3 year anniversary of when Jack Thompson got disbarred as a lawyer for life in the state of Florida after years of trying to sue video games and almost everything Rockstar made.
Thompson hates the GTA series the most and since this is the first console game in the series to arrive post-disbarment, Rockstar wants to celebrate the occasion. http://kotaku.com/5853157/gta-v-trai...ay-for-gta-foe |

Dunno why, but GTA: Earth made me think of a mechanic where it has real time flight times from one place to the next.
No plane would take off, everyone would be killed before it left the tarmac. |

The "V Five" has been compared to the "V Five" on Native American five dollar bills and they seem very similar.
The $5 bills in question were in print from 1878 to 1964. More accurately, 1899 for that specific $5 bill. This has people thinking 2 things. 1) the game will be set 1899 and/or 2) We'll have a native american main character. I can't see it being set in 1899, that's what RDR is for. |
Quote:
This is the sort of shit you see on rap albums, which have nothing to do with the 19th century or indians. The "V" probably was chosen because it looks cooler than a "5" |
|
Its going to be difficult to make a new game setting without it being compared to another game I think. With Vice City, you had the 80's, with San Andreas, you had the early 90's and with GTA4, you had the late 90's or early 2000's.
What I honestly see, if them using a current modern day setting or late 60's/early 70's. There was alot of good music there for the soundtrack and the cars they can use will be amazing, you have the 67 Mustang, 71 Olds 442, drool: |
What? Unless you meant GTAIII, I think it's incredibly obvious GTAIV was modern day.
|
The music and feel had me guessing late 90's/early 2000's.
Not sure if they mentioned it anywheres in the game. |
lol

Quote:
Vice City was mid '80s, San Andreas was early '90s, GTA III was late '90s/early 2000s, and GTA IV was current time. |
California to Mexico would be sick, and I hope they bring back stuff like haircuts and tattoos, minus the gym.

I would like another RDR down the line, and the prospect of using WORKYADAMNAG Marston will piss off many, so a prequel would be cool. But it would be Red Read Resomething, not Grand Theft Auto. It'd actually be funny to see a GTA game before the Automobile even existed, but.... It'd be cool to see a 60s/70s game. Actually, it'd be awesome if we had expansions in different time periods or something. Same city, different times. It would probably be immense, though. |
Yeah I think 60s/70s is due up. Rockstar has covered pretty much ever era but that one, I believe
|
Prohibition era GTA.
|
I was about to mention that the 30's and 40's would be kinda cool with the Al Capone gangster style.
|
Capone was biggest in the 20s, and Prohibition ended in 33. While the 40s had their own colour, The Roaring Twenties is where it's at.
|
I shouldn't even say "biggest." Al Capone went down in '31. I mean, there were other gangsters, but the era's still best handled in the 20s.

I need to brush up on my American history.
*Turns on History Channel* What the fuck, Storage Wars? |
The History Channel is to history as MTV is to Music.

It was pretty shit years ago, too.
80% of the shows were about Hitler (getting the details wrong) or Nostradamus (getting the details wrong). Actually, they probably could have just called it the Hitler channel. |

Honestly, I like the idea of having the story arc over years. You release GTA:5 and have it be a complete and epic game. Let's say it's set in the 60s. It ends with somewhat of a cliffhanger, but not a huge one as to make the game be able to stand on its own. Say someone is sent to prison (as previously mentioned). A year or two later, you release the first DLC set in the 80s and so on. It would be the same city but with different textures and a few differences in general (more highways, etc). |
Quote:

A variety of clothing, haircuts, and tattoos (much like San Andreas). I have no idea why this was taken out. GTA shouldn’t be as silly as Saints Row, but they shouldn’t take themselves seriously.
|
I agree, they need a middle ground between San Andreas and GTA4
|
Although I love the feel and realism of GTA IV, the enormity of possibilities in San Andreas wasn't surpassed.
|
I think I've got it figured out. If you look at the logo and remember what we supposedly know about the game...

Or perhaps, have the main character go to jail for four years on some charge. Then 4 years later he gets out (they do the release date for the game EXACTLY four years from the prior game)
That could be an interesting idea. |
Quote:
...what, you've heard that before? |
Quote:

Yeah, that's pretty much what I figure. Though I am starting to think that it might be a little too much for DLC content, considering you'd probably new an entirely new map, whereas in GTA 4 and the DLC it was the exact same city/map.
I'm not adverse to paying full price for the DLC, honestly. If it really is LA, maybe the expansions/DLC/sequels will be the other two SA cities. And if you own GTA 5 (or if it's DLC) then there's the option of flying to the other cities to mess around and do certain missions. |
The potentially extra cities would have to be way smaller than the one in GTA V especially if the price on a DLC would be near the main game's price and the time needed to develop them.
The Episodes from GTA IV took well over a year to make and going back to the Vice City and SA games, those took about 6-9 months to make each out of the GTA III engine. Only reasons the Episodes was even created was due Rockstar asking Microsoft for money to finish GTA IV and in return made the Episodes as payback. |

I could live without more clothes. The clothes provided for Nikko were all suiting of him. Like, he looked like he'd naturally wear them. Made it more realistic, so I hope the next GTA pulls it off with the same dignity as IV did. Maybe they could include haircuts and tattoos as DLC for V. |
What if as DLC, they give you an entirely new city.
Think about it for a second. Say for example you play through the regular game and then the DLC is you having to go to another city to help out family or whatever reason they make up for you having to go there. Basically, it would be like San Andreas in that you go to a whole new city every so often. I never felt that with GTA4, mostly because its all the same city. |

With the russian fur hat :D |
Quote:
Meatball is right that it might not be feasible as DLC. Personally, as I said, I wouldn't mind paying for a whole new game, especially if it's the scale of the original in terms of both map and story. Maybe for that game include a code where if you own GTA 5 you can fly to it with free DLC (or $10 for a used copy, keeping the current trends in mind) where it basically downloads the entire map from GTA 5 but with the cars, pedestrians etc of the later game. |

Aeris was a pretty shitty character anyway. I don't get why it had the resounding impact it did.
|
I guess it was just because the game was iconic, so the death became iconic too. First Final Fantasy on the PSX.
They were out of the sandbox and play time was over. |
Also, most people picked Aeris in all the love triangle mini games.

Let us have more customization and outfits, but not too much. Not sure how possible it is, but periodically create and release new clothes, haircuts, and tattoos after its release through DLC.
|
So basically turn GTA into The Sims.
|
How's that turning GTA into The Sims? The dating/going out with friends is like a Sims game, but wanting a character customized doesn't really seem Sims.
|
LOL. Yeah, customisation options are sims-like. And Xero loves Simdown vs Raw.
