CVG interviewed Leslie Benzies (R* North president) about GTAO

Quote:
CVG: What scope have you got for expanding beyond the locations we're seeing already?

Leslie Benzies: Well, one thing we've toyed with - and we've talked about this before so it isn't a spoiler - is the ambition to grow the world until it's the world. We're going to just add on new things to it, new places all the time.
We've set this up so there are no limitations. The only limition is the size of the disc and how much memory we've got. We could, if we wanted, simulate the entire world, diffrent countries, whatever.
Whether we do that or not...but we've got a bunch of old stuff that we're toying with using.

The one problem I've found with PS+ is that my HDD is full.

Of course, the "problem" only exists in that I have too many games I like to/want to play for free on my HDD, so it's one I can live with. But I seriously need to upgrade my HDD.

Does Miami have anything that could make Vice City interesting? The hook for VC on the PS2 was that it was the 80's.
I remember Stephen Fry traveling through all the US states on TV and saying Miami was bland and dull. What was shown did seem to back that claim up. So, is there anything to Miami?

Being my hometown, I can't sell something I grew up in as some magical town or anything, but in the context of GTA I could propose a few things:

- Like Vice City, I imagine a GTA5-era Miami would again focus on South Beach, Little Havana, and parts of Downtown. Taking these areas into account, and with obvious expansion, I95, Downtown Miami proper, Hialeah, Miami International Airport, and Bayside (where the Heat's AAA stadium resides).

- Miami is already like LA without the hills and rich people, but modern Miami's Downtown has grown a lot since the Vice City 80s rendition. Our skyline has grown and you may remember parts of that in Driv3r's Miami stage. While not the steel and cement metropolis of Liberty City, the tropical/exotic urban mix may be cool in the new engine. This would be the most familiar of GTA-type locals.



- Just a little South of Downtown is Bayside, where the AAA stadium is. Think of Bayside as a mix of Coney Island, Cuba, and Madison Square Garden. A lot of our postcards with boats and such are of this place (the rest almost surely South Beach). Bayside offers your port-side fun with docks of boats and lots of little markets to make chaos in. If you'd be able to enter the arena, it would make for an interesting deathmatch map - or perhaps basketball minigames.



- Miami International Airport looks like every airport ever, and would be accessed via taking I95 north. So let's just take a look at I95. It was used as the main highway in Driv3r and would connect all the major areas. The big chase in Bad Boys 2 was on I95.



- Also, the first scenes on Scarface where the Cuban refugee camp was, as well as the basketball fight scene in Only The Strong, took place under the same I95 overpass downtown. This would make for cool meetings and shootouts. It's also to this day a pretty fucked up area.



- South Beach is almost exactly how it seemed in Vice City. Further expansion could add a more realistic connection to I95 (it just sort of blended into Downtown in Vice City) as well as a functional Star Island, home of Miami's super rich, ready for you to buy and live in.





- Along with MIA, Hialeah is more westward vs the all the East Coast areas I described. It also rounds things out with it being the residential 'commoner' part of the area. A key attraction is the horse race track that may be good for lulz.


Best picture I could find.

- I almost forgot, there's a monorail that cycles between Bayside and Downtown that could be functional and offer a track to run around recklessly on.



I would love to see all of this rendered in GTA5 visuals and detail. It would certainly be my main city and has more than enough diversions for possible minigames and general messing around.

No. None of my friends have a 360. Maybe 3 of them have a Wii. Not a Wii U, just a Wii. I the only one with a real interest in gaming.

Yeah, it was the only thing I could think of this side of the 80s that involved Miami. Not counting remakes.

It's also the only way I could see Miami being interesting.

Plus, BDC and I had talked at length about a GTA-style Burn Notice game in the past. I think he even posted about it.

Far as pop culture goes.

I mean, it's a big city. Most big cities have shit going for them. There's everything from sports to culture and back, but Miami lacks the rep a lot of other cities have.

Kal posted some stunning pictures and I'd defer cultural knowledge to someone who lives there over a yankee who's only been there once in their life (and over fifteen years ago, I might add), but it doesn't seem to have a national identity like New York or LA (or even Boston).

The one thing I want in as far as new areas is the one place I know wont ever be in.

A Scottish map would be great. We have mountains, forests, large cities, small towns, cliffs, caves, beaches, lochs, huge rivers etc.

It would be fun to be able to have a shoot out on top of Edinburgh castle, maybe even using the cannons.
Sniping from the Law Hill in the GTA equivilent to Dundee (Discovery City?), maybe stealing the actual Discovery ship.

Probably tons more stuff too.

If it's not American or London it has zero chance.

Every GTA has so much Scottish humour and so many references, they may as well just set one here.

Remember being surprised when I played San Andreas and saw the Forth rail and road bridges. Or seeing the "Visit Dundee" poster in GTA III (or was it Vice City)? Tons of them.

It's also fun watching videos of professional American games journalists, acting all serious, and they say "BAWSAQ" and are completely oblivious to what they just said.

I want Edinburgh so I can shoot down an enemy helicopter with a cannon. It would be really cool to have a shoot out under the city in all the old chambers and stuff. You know what I mean, right?

Other cities have other attributes towards them too. A game with Edinburgh (Castle City?) as the "main city" and Glasgow, Dundee and Aberdeen as smaller cities with countryside, mountains etc in between would be fun. Just like SA on the PS2 with LS, SF and LV but on a much much bigger scale.

Liked Project Gotham for driving around Princes street, be nice to have identifiable landmarks to kill people at. Running over students at the Fringe. etc. Pity Arthurs seat isn't bigger.

You could explore the quarries where the BBC films 99% of their shows. Recreate Doctor Who or...Those other shows on the BBC!

I really would like to see some foreign cities brought to life GTA-style. Especially with the scope they can now offer. Sleeping Dogs was nice, but it still felt small and video game-ish.

Plus, it gets a little silly gunning down millions of people outside of America's trigger-happy culture.

Even though Rockstar is treating GTA V Online as if it was a separate game, they have no plans to ever release it as a stand-alone game.

Quote:
Grand Theft Auto Online was revealed to the world yesterday, when it was confirmed that it would ship with all retail copies of Grand Theft Auto V on September 17, but would not go live until October 1.

“We don’t have any plans to sell GTA Online separately,” a Rockstar rep told Polygon. ”It will come free with every copy of GTA V and doesn’t require a code, online pass, or anything like that.”

Yeah Miami's too mixed up to stand out in any one area. We're a little bit LA, Cuba, and whatever. I mean yeah it's this vacation spot but we have nothing in terms of Lady Liberty or some fancy bridge. Just a bunch of beaches that every coastal city has and lots of palm trees. I still think it would be cool to play around in as a sandbox game.

I think that's one of the biggest hurdles for setting a GTA outside America. Very few places have the USAs love of guns.
Unless they tried to mix up the gameplay a bit and tried to have combat focus more on melee and hand to hand.

The achievement list has leaked online. I want to ask that anyone who decides to look and/or post them to keep any discussion relating to the achievements marked as spoilers.

I'd hate to read a post and see stuff like "Wow, judging by this achievement, we have to push Micheals wife into a cavern as part of the story." etc. That's just an example I made up, incase anyone thinks I'm spoiling something.

One of the more absurd things about Sleeping Dogs was that they go out of their way to tell you guns aren't common in Honk Kong, unlike America.

Five missions later you've killed more Chinese people than Cao Cao.

Watched the multiplayer video a couple days ago and I enjoy it.

Only thing I'm hoping for is that I can play it solo and nobody bothers me. Got back into Red Dead Redemption multiplayer and all I kept getting was posse requests over and over AND OVER! And there's no way to boot the player unless you get the majority votes.

Just let me do some races, or rob a couple jewlery stores, or just explore at my leisure. And I'll be happy.
