GTA V - General Thread

"cryptic markings indicate locations for fast cash and other points of interest for the up and coming entrepreneur"

Anyone see anything cryptic in that blueprint?
I see what loox like a submerged ship in the ocean, in between the two straits at the top right.
I'm assuming they are referring to the sunken treasure we've all heard about?
Maybe we look for some dollar signs or an 'X marx the spot' type of thing.......

Discuss.....

Never noticed that. Interesting you point it out.

It's a wait and see thing.

GTA 5 special and collectors editions announced!

I see what looks like an oval race track on the rolled up map, in the Special Edition pic.

Could be. But it looks like its a separate island. Kinda looks like Happiness Island in GTA IV.

Did Rockstar ever confirm if it was only a single landmass?

Cool stuff, I have been waiting for a special edition before preordering, looks like I will go with collectors edition probably.
I notice some extra info in this announcement, including a first peak of the actual map.

Exactly what I was waiting for before I pre-order. Going to get the Collector's Edition.

I don't know. All they have mentioned was that the square feet will be far greater than RDR, GTA: SA and GTA IV combined. That map probably isn't even fully opened.

 

[VEXD]

I always liked the idea of having to travel from one map to another to get to other locations.
You know, like you did in SA when you had to go wipe everyone out at that mafia restaurant in Liberty.

It'd be nice if you had that option.
I wonder if they stuck Liberty city in there too, and we can travel to it for kix.

A GTA V o'clock special reckons you'll be able to play as Niko Bellic in multiplayer.

This weeks episode, apparently when you lose your bullets you keep your gun so you don't lose all the customizable features of that weapon, when playing golf you can choose your clubs, if in a police chase you can lure police into certain areas and gangs such as the Ballas will naturally shoot at the police, custom vehicle license plates,you need to buy helipads for your helicopters and businesses have perks for example if you buy a taxi firm you won't need to pay for taxis. This game doesn't cease to amaze me.

No way ?! If they put in Niko, they'd better put in Luis, [the guy from TLAD] and CJ, too. Unless, they want tons of mails about it . Hope, hope and more hope.

Fixed that for you.

 

[Peasantslayer]

Fixed that for you.

He put a comma there before the square brackets, it's Johnny Dean J.

I was talking about Johnny, from TLAD, but thanks anyway .

Thanks! I've only played it briefly, many months ago, so I forgot his name .

Keep in mind that includes vertical gameplay too. Swimming under the water, entering buildings, and anything else in the sky.

The blimp reminds me of the blimp in Just Cause 2. If anyone played that game and got the "mile high club" achievement, they know what I am talking about. The blimp in JC2 was so awesome.

Would not surprise me. I mentioned something about that years ago. The ability to travel to the previous GTA locations.

What do you think? Real or fake?

I wouldn't deny it being real since Rockstar has confirmed underwater exploration. But I think we all are a little skeptical.

 

[CAMAROBOY69]

Why would you consider it being fake? That underwater machine has been shown several times.

 

[RetroJohan]

My first thoughts were it's a Gta 4 mod, but then I saw this picture I'm going more it's real.

 

[TilDawn]

Just secured the CE for myself. Will most likely not use any codes that will give an advantage from the start, at least not on my first playthrough.

 

[Dean]

Is it just me, or does that submarine look like it's in LEGO ?

I honestly think the shot's real, however about the placement, there is actually many places it could be. I'm not saying it's inaccurate or anything.

Edit: I actually think the placement is correct, after giving it a second look.

 

[VYPA-SQUAD_Ace]

To me it looks like the one from the movie, The Abyss. I think that's the name.

 

[Davidies]

I think it looks AWESOME. I hope that, one day, we will get a camera from the inside. It's already rendered (I think), so why not?

 

[CAMAROBOY69]

Its about time for some more pics hopefully soon. Been too quiet. Hopefully some co-op or multiplayer details will be revealed soon.
On a side note I am getting the regular edtion my brother is getting the collector edition.

So your going to sneakily take some of it?

I do hope R* release it as DLC because I don't want to miss out on extra multiplayer characters.
And speaking of extra multiplayer characters,I said many pages back about having old GTA characters in multiplayer and people put that down.
A completely different universe or something like that.
Looks like they were wrong eh.

 

[Peasantslayer]

Some previews and more info regarding the game, most of it we already know but there are a few interesting things.

Good stuff.
I hope heists/robberies have alot of variation to them.
For instance injuries to yourself and fellow robbers.
Like in Michael Mann's Heat,where Val Kilmer is shot in the neck and Robert De Niro has to save him and 'deal'with cops,stuff like that.
Not so linear,some variation would make gameplay very exciting.

Nope not interested in any of the collectors items. I also don't want a free house or free car. I want to start from scratch and earn everything. 👍

Can't wait to crash a fighter jet into 10 Niko Bellics online, complete with the players shouting at me with failtastic Niko Bellic impressions.
