I agree, GTAIV punished you all the time for stepping out of line. Which is understandable to some degree, but it got silly when you killed or even punched someone in some remote location and you immediately got a wanted level.

I can't understand if it's supposed to be a bridge or various cranes.

R*'s GTA V screenshots are of wildly varying quality.
It's best when they focus on the setting sun, so you can't see shit.

I thought that happens because other peds report you?
Dont peds on the street call 911 if you kill someone?
In RDR they did (well, not call 911, but run to authorities) don't know about GTAIV.
Apparently though it's possible, if you change vehicle while not seen, to hide from the police and have them drive past you even if you're in the red circle.
Never tried it myself, but read about it in of the many GTA threads.

I was trying to figure that out yesterday. It doesn't match the other screenshot.
Huh, I didn't even think of that. I remember R* mentioning that before GTA IV, pretty sure you're right.
That's actually a neat touch, but I found myself wishing that there was just a bit more leeway for me to do illegal shit in some situations :lol
Not too much leeway. Obviously GTA will always be far from reality, but I do like it feeling at least somewhat grounded.

No more, Tuna on Toast. Can't take anymore.
This is interesting but sounds more like a myth, such RE5's AI-controlled Sheva becoming a more capable partner if you indulge her requests (i.e. give her ammo every 10 seconds).

It's definitely been clone brushed in photoshop for some reason, before they rotated it. Strange.
Cool, I see that Boris is already far along with his work on GTA V.

Agreed here, or an RDR system with witnesses. In GTAIV, no matter where you were, if you shot a gun the police would appear within ~10 seconds. It was especially annoying if you were just trying to have some fun with an abandoned car or shoot pidgeons (worse collectible ever). Maybe that's "realistic" in NYC, that a gunshot never goes unanswered, but it really took away from the game IMO.
In RDR, you could act with relative impunity if the law wasn't around or any witnesses to report it. It made being in town versus being out in the wild very different... in the wild it felt like anything could happen, like it was lawless, while in town, you'd have rangers on you pretty darn quick.

pedestrians called the cops for anything in GTA 4. They made the blowing up 10 cars achievement and shooting pigeons a pain in the ass. Shooting one bird with an assault weapon in a crowded city could turn into a giant police chase.
Well...yeah. I think that would be expected

That's what I've been saying. I don't want the "hidden packages" in this game to require me firing my weapon out in the open. Unless it was like assassination missions or something.

Maybe we'll get silencers this time. I think I remember seeing one in a screenshot.

My most anticipated game for this year that big information blowout back in November blew my mind at all the additions and innovations to the series. Looks like Rockstar is making a great swansong for this gen.

I think the distance from Grapeseed to the mountains has to be at least as far as the distance from the oil well to the mountains. http://i.imgur.com/hs35U.jpg
It's hard to tell from just one picture. Grapeseed could be a little farther to the east and the desert airstrip area might be farther west. Who the hell knows.
God yes, hope they change that. I didn't even bother with the GTA IV hidden packages.
Either that or I hope we get to modify weapons, including silencers, as Dark_AnNiaLatOr mentioned.

Having belieable consequnces for your actions helps make being bad in GTA games, particularly IV, fun. When it fees like the carnage is encouraged (i.e. Saints Row) it feels less substantial and must be more bombastic to feel entertaing. If I have to race into a military base to steal a tank, it's more exciting to get it than if you just step into a carnage mission marker and get points for blowing shit up.
I welcome the further rumored tweaks to the wanted system.

Have they even hinted at the release date/window or are we just basing it on previous games.

Spring.
was this posted? probably but for those who might have missed it, rockstar uploaded all officially released screenshots in 720p
actually a few here i've never seen

DLC and game on both old and next gen.
Yeah a couple of pages back.
Despite the shitty textures and sketchy draw distance (though i don't mind the fog in the city shots, given the smog levels in LA)i like what they're doing with the colors, for the most part.
Some got too much of an instagram vibe, but some look very very natural, especially the daylight ones.
Overall i'm really digging the look of the game, especially compared to GTAIV piss fest.
Thanks for posting this- it was really nice to see them all in one place!
This game. So much anticipation!

Thanks, I haven't seen a few of them.
Lol, the name of the three protagonists and the map (with zones yet unknown) was leaked surreptitiously on gtaforums four or five weeks before the reveal on GI, and nobody realized it. Trust me on this.
When it is a GTA, you don´t want to know.

i'm gonna take a "wild guess" and say military + tanks won't be returning >_>
;_;

The texture filtering in that last shot for sure is console.
