So no returning characters?
Im all for new ideas, but you just can't create memorial characters like Tommy, CJ?, No talking guy from 3 and ton of other side characters from the series and not use them in some way ever again. I liked the connected universe of GTA. Not really feeling this whole new game thing.
This makes sense to me. There is no way they would have you play as a return character (for one whoever the voice actor is would probably want tons of money), but they like doing new things. I think at most there will be a couple of references to old gangs or characters, and maybe you will see one. Im hoping to see the pot dude from San Andreas who was really into conspiracy theories.
Is anyone sick of hearing this? Seriously this and " living, breathing world" need to die already.

Ugh if he really had seen that and wanted to leak it, why in the world would he go and tell them where he works? Sure he didn't say the exact name but he narrowed it down pretty damn well.

Absolutely. IV simply had no economy in any meaningful sense, and no consequences for earning/losing money. This of course just decimated one of the central points of narrative - how many times did Roman and Niko fight about the former gambling away all their money?
As for multiple characters, I wouldn't be surprised if we see a character feature like the one used in Scarface. For certain kinds of missions, you could change from Tony into one of his henchmen. It helped in that by the time Tony was a millionaire, it didn't make any sense to have the player use him to defend turf, takeover new ground and so forth. Since you'd only be playing as this different character for a brief amount of time, the story-line was never interrupted.

I really want that stuff to be true. It's a step in a stuff to do direction. Was on the edge of my seat when I started reading about the realistic cops. If this is real, good thing the cops are less strict on keeping me in line.
Rockstar, go back to the 3 full pages of codes please.

i love the idea of different melee weapons -- the "swords" comment sounds like Dead Rising, which would be great.
This could very well be true, after all its not something out of this world, just well thought additions to gameplay. Exactly what needed. I want to spend money on something meaningful, I want bigger map, better missions and no more bowling bullshit.
Oh and that cop/dog thing would be fucking brilliant.

This was like the god list. This almost runs as a wishlist for me. The activities themselves just blow me away.
I really hope that this is real. I don't care about harming the animals, glad it's out, but I sort of wonder how they'd work that with police dogs if you can't harm animals?
Upgradeable stats based on how you interact.. jesus. I'd die if that's back. We'll see though if this is real, I just hope that it is.
Part of me doubts this, or thinks that it's just for staged/scripted parts of certain missions. It'd be a major diversion from the RAGE and Havok engine that we know.

He talks about things that aren't in the trailer.
I think it sounds legit.

R* might not be bowing to Peta, but yknow, maybe they are animal lovers too? I have no problem if you can't kill the neighborhood dog, that shit makes me sad, and I am desensitized to human violence.

That list sounds too good to be true.

That doesn't sound very fun, I hope that doesn't make it in.

I'm an animal lover and would love to have them in the game. I wouldn't kill them but they would make the world more realistic and interesting. The reason I'm okay with killing people in-game is just desensitization. I won't break down and cry if I kill an animal in the game though I just avoid it.
Peta just says/does stupid shit sometimes. It's a shame the fanaticals in the organization have made the name so disdained. Extreme people from peta keep bitching about the president swatting a fly instead of real issues.
I like this a lot, it would be cool if you could fill your car up yourself as well.MrTroubleMaker said:
Or if you're on a mission escaping from police and you're almost out of fuel, it makes things way more tense.

Contradicts himself in this post. if you cant kill animals then I guess the police dogs are indestructible. And like Ploid said, they just happened to pass the same 3 landmarks from the trailer? This reads more like a wishlist than real info.
No game brings out the "My uncle works for [insert game company here]" like a GTA game.
MrTroubleMaker said:
I was actually trying to come up with things why i disagree, as it sounded cool to me at first. But if the game is really this huge, i really want to roam the world without worrying that i'll run out of gas, especially when you're in the forest or a desert or whatever.
Edit: Also i love it! San Andreas is my absolute favorite GTA, GTA 4 was nicely done but felt like a downgrade in freedom, no airplanes, not much change in scenerey just a big city.

I've wanted actual fuel consumption as a feature for a long time. But it has to be balanced right. Every car you jack should have at least 1/4 tank and a full tank should have to last a full day minimum.
I would also be in favor of having stolen cars have their plates run by police cars if they get behind you. Changing plates buys you an in game week of police not being able to run your plates. However, every model of car in the game should be able to be bought, and once bought it is yours permanently. Make money useful in the game.

You'd lose a lot of cars though. Doing crazy stuff around the countryside having to detour to fill up the tank would be filler in the game (add hours) and slow down your fun.
*DP crap, I keep expecting new posts to have happened after my last.
Zwei said:
Someone should make a mod where you have to fill up your car in GTA4. Then GTA5, problem solved.
I H8 Memes said:
The gas thing could be like Mafia 2, where it lasted a very long time. But having it in there could be cool as long as you dont run out alot and a full tank lasts a long time.
Also, to the car stealing thing, I would love something like that. Where if you steal a car, you have 24 in game hours to drive it freely before it becoming wanted and every cop looking for it. So you couldnt just take a Lambo off the streets and own it. But have there be car dealerships where you can buy cars that you own. And no matter where you leave them or if they explode, like in saints row, they will always be waiting at your garage.
I had a ton of cool upgraded cars in San Andreas. But I never wanted to drive them on missions because I was afraid I would lose them or they would blow up.
Also, like GTA 3, bring back bulletproof cars please.

The only problem I have with that 'reveal' is the amount of content. The poster says he was given 30 minutes to see everything, yet what he posts could take up a couple hours to see at least. It smells overdone.
