Hey did anyone see the GTAV advert last night?
I saw it at about 12:30am while watching the US open final.

I saw it around 10pm watching Blackout:tup:

 

[VEXD]

Anyone notice the "Vinewood Racetrack" oval on that map?

There's another track called "Redwood....." something, that I can't make out.
Loox like an off road course.....

👍

 

[CodeRedR51]

I think the first one is a horse racing track.

 

[BlazeTheCat05]

I smell street racing Highway Battles in the supercars when GTA Online is unlocked

Haha you'll find me in a highly modified Premier.
I can sense that there will be a LOT of Fast & Furious-style videos and such. Can't wait.

My brother said he saw it last night on Channel 4, I can watch it whenever I want on youtube but for some reason it's more exciting on T.V.

Wonder if gambling will be back...

 

[Valkyrie427]

Any word yet on whether or not the new Hydra will be a VTOL?

I just want to be able to go to a casino and gamble my heist rewards away.

I know what you mean,I got a little giddy when I saw it.

Less then 7 days to gooo!

Wuhooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!

I think it's most likely going to be an F22. No Harrier jump jets this time I'm afraid.

Nooooo!!!!

Well, atleast the rest of the game will make up for one plane not having vertical take off capabilities.

I remember in SA you could sort of cheat for money and go over the maximum number of monetary characters allowed. You could wager $99999999 and bet on the same horse every time, because eventually you'd win. If you lost, reload your previous save and do it again until you win

It does look alot like a harrier/hydra though.

I'm actually thankful that the Hydra might not be a VTOL. You wouldn't want a jet-fighter/helicopter hybrid getting in the wrong hands would you? That thing can absolutely break gameplay, and we've all experienced how annoying the Buzzard was in TBoGT when trigger-happy pilots got behind the controls.
Also, I'm quite shocked that there hasn't been a mention of the Vortex returning (the hovercraft from GTA SA).

Could be a surprise.

Were there horses to bet at? Man I missed that back in the day

And you'll find ME in a black Voodoo with hydraulics. (Is hydraulics returning?)

 

[Ridox2JZGTE]

I'll be in a rancher with army camo paint and open top if that's possible

 

[Slash]

Yup. Good fun.

Rancher with the roll bars in it, and the black mud flares with big tires and a lift

 

[BlazeTheCat05]

I'll usually be spending time taking slow and crap cars such as the Dilettante and the Lokus and turning them into full-on street racers that can also hold their own on the track.
I'll be building quite a lot of realistic tracks and such for us to race on. Might try and make a GTA-style Nurburgring.

You have a point there.

Will the Karussel be Grove Street?

There is a Harrier Jump Jet. That was confirmed months ago.

 

[MatskiMonk]

Not sure if its mentioned yet, but GTAGaming report a quote that the map is 49 square miles...

Any idea what IV was... to see if that map comparo is realistic?

It was.

Wasn't it 7 sq. miles?

Edit:
[QUOTE="Ayman1337", GTAForums.com]GTA III (and LCS) - 3 sq. miles
GTA Vice City (and VCS) - 3.5 sq. miles
GTA San Andreas - 13.6 sq. miles
GTA IV - 6.8 sq. miles[/QUOTE]

49 sq. miles is ~1.9 times more than all previous games' maps together, if the above list is correct 👍.
