Seeing as it looks like it will be about the pursuit of the almighty dollar. I wonder if we'll see Mr Love back , maybe have the recession hitting him and his businesses hard. That would be fun.

Part of me wishes Rockstar would continue with the old timeline. I really want to know what happened to Donald Love.

I really think modern, and Hollywood. There's just too much smoke for there not to be a fire.


Ah fair enough.


Hollywood has been the rumor, but the V dollar sign points to Vegas. Or perhaps V for Vice City considering the posters in GTA 4 that said "next stop".

I really want the "Southwest GTA" ala Breaking Bad; Texas, New Mexico, Mexico, Arizona.

We won't get it but I really want another Countryside too.

I dunno why, I saw the font for the "Five" I assumed this was GTA in ancient Greece with the full on chariot theft and greek architecture.
 
Recently getting into GTA IV, I'm very happy about this.

I'm not a big GTA fan, so it's news to me that the old games were crazier and unrealistic. I hope R* goes that route this time.

(But my biggest hope by far is that it has a ton of different environments/areas like San Andreas.)
 
Something I've been wanting for years is real-time weather based on your location. Like, a background process that checks your local weather every five minutes or something and the game matches it. Is it raining outside? Raining in the game.

Time of day would be cool too, at least as an option.

no thanks. some ppl live in areas where there is only one weather condition--misery

Doesn't quite work though if the game is set in LA and you're playing it during the winter in Green Bay..

While I hope it's set in Vice City, I know that it probably won't happen.

What I truly hope though, is that GTAV won't feel like GTAIV and RDR. What I mean by that, is really just general character movement. I seriously won't buy the game if it requires me to tap A to sprint.

Fuck that shit.

What if ... they set it in the 70's in New York. You play as a member of an up and coming black gang. Given the social and racial climate of the time I think it'll be pure awesome.

If they are Dutch, upright and breathing they are more racist than your favorite player
Personally I would like to see something outside of the states, like, Europe wouldnt be a stretch, although Mexico City would be amazing!
 
Better have horse-riding or no sale!

Just buying this for the radio and TV-stations alone. Shit was glorious in GTA IV. Even the haters have to admit that. I can't imagine how many hours go into the fake brands, commercials and stuff like that. Those things define GTA more for me than the gameplay. I just want to be immersed in a fake world. I want to WALK around a city, absorbing all the atmosphere, and not run around in it like a steroid idiot by default. Tapping A to run was a great design decision. Fuck The Haters. R* could make an option to turn that off though to please those people.

Walking around with your phone in hand along fake Times Square...good shit.

I want a sequel to SA with CJ again.
They should do this, and have him grown up when he's become the Successful Negro meme's guy. Make him go through the same string of missions from SA again for endless hilarity.

GTA4 trailer brought us the Rick Roll. I wonder if this one will bring any new meme.

I don't want real time minute to minute weather, but I DO want real time seasons that make sense to the city. Like if it's a northeast city and you're playing during the winter, it will snow. Play during the summer, and it'll be hot, etc. etc. With holidays, decorations, and the whole nine. Just like Animal Crossing, basically. For at least a year post release you'd come back to GTA so see what it looks like every 2 months.

Not sure if that was already said, but the announcement of Grand Theft Auto 5 today is also the three year anniversary of Jack Thompson's disbarment.

Coincidence or intentional?

Even something like that would help immersion immensely, yeah.

The Rockstar site got hammered when the GTA IV trailer first came out and everyone was waiting for a [youtube] mirror. Someone on 4chan posted a youtube link saying it was the trailer, but it was just Never Gonna Give You Up and thus an internet meme was born.

Would be nice if the story was like Street Kings.Story spoilers -
Play as a good, but dirty cop, and slowly unravel the fact that your partners etc are the real bad guys.
That doesnt sound like a GTA game to me...Sounds like True Crime Streets of Garbage.

Have you you never played a GTA game before?

Just so that you know, i GTA you are a Bad guy....a really really bad guy, so anything that involves being in Law Enforcement is out, Undercover or otherwise.

I'm sure it wasn't. I would love it if you play as an ex-lawyer.

Whoa I didn't know that was the origin, of it, could've swore it happened before that.
 
Zombie James said:

I just don't think there's enough RAM (or disc space on the 360) on these consoles to deal with seasonal + holiday changes to the city, the pedestrians, the vehicles, the weather effects, etc so I'm not expecting it for GTAV. Next gen though, they'd better this system in place.

Bully had something like it, but not only was the world in the game significantly smaller, it wasn't real time, there were no Euphoria physics to deal with, that old Rockstar engine was never really a looker, etc. etc.

Totally agree. You either have to start as a straight up bad dude, or have a "good guy gone bad" story that takes place before the player even gets control. A cop, no matter how dirty, would be ridiculous with the type of stuff you can do in GTA.

Duckrolling (posting links claiming to be something other than a link to a post with the duckroll image macro) was around before rickrolling but yeah, rickrolling came from that post to /v/.

Cool, hope there's a Wii U version being made.
There's no reason for there not to be, and no one here can claim otherwise.

Unless of course its being made on the PS4, Nextbox and the specs are superior. The audience will primarily be from the PC,PS3,360 crowed anyway. There are reasons that a WiiU version would not be as viable as some might want to claim, and no one can claim otherwise.

hopefully they ditch the stupid autoaim set as default, ruined any chance of the MP ever being worthwhile
This is correct. The auto aim and blips ruined the competitive aspect of all of the modes. The right way to play is auto aim off, blips on far.

The racing and co-op modes in IV are heavily slept on though. Extremely fun.

But people wont buy it because the main character is black!!!
 
Neuromancer said:
What engine did GTA 4 use, and is it well suited to bigger, countryside style expanses? I'm guessing that may not even be possible.

GTA IV and RDR used the same engine (R.A.G.E.) so yeah, bigger countryside expanses are definitely possible.

They won't. That would set off some serious and I mean SERIOUS fireworks from alot of parties, both black and white.
