Yeah:tup:

Is there anymore new info regarding the story?
 
for all you pal ppl out there, according to gpstore we can get it for $99.95 NZ on the 18th! and its uncut. I know where im getting it. :D
Peace
 
I'm from Sydney too, is there anywhere around NSW to get it that early? Or do you just have to order it on the internet?

Oh well, I've already ordered mine, and I don't mind getting mine on the proper date.
 
A few more tidbits of info:

Rockstar programmers told us that maybe in the final game we can change tattoos or clotes on CJ.

All game's pedestrians have a "brain" and they react more actively respect the past GTA's, with more animations.

Dan Houser [co-founder of Rockstar Games] says that he cannot find any way to complete the game in less than 150 hours.

The dimensions are enormous. Keep in mind that just Los Santos is as big as the entire play area of Vice City and it is just ¼ of the dimension of the map of San Andreas. Between the three centers, there is also the famous ‘countryside’, which we didn’t see and weren’t told anything about except that the visual profundity, in the pastoral region, will be four times that seen before.

We haven't seen the map yet, but I just guessed then that the country will be in the middle of the map. Meaning I think that Mt. Chiliad will be the dead centre of San Andreas. The 3 cities will be place on the outside of the country...

Also, Blake made a good theory about this too...there are lots of Pine Trees in the country, and Pine generally stays in land...

Just a theory.
 
Just a few questions taht I am not sure if any of you will be able to answer: -
1)Are there any limiters at the beginning of the game. All previous games had had islands, but no such thing seems likely for SA.
2)As the map is so big, will there be an 'auto-transport' features. For example in GTA:3 there was the underground. Will there be trains/automated-buses in GTA:SA?
 
I have a feeling i'm going to hate the eating thing. Thats just neopets for me.
And for the record Tommy vercetti will go down in video game history as the biggest lunatic killing main charater. When I played missions I could imagine him in real life, 30x worse then oj.

I think an earthquake will seperate yuo from other cities at first, like that the main road is destroyed and there's no way to get to other other cities.
 
I agree with Blake, except that's NOT confirmed, so don't confuse yourselves and other people.

Also, there are Trams confirmed for SA, but I believe the Trams will be kind of like in Mafia, where you just ride on them in real time until you want to get off, then you will probably ring a bell to stop the Tram. Also, I believe there is large rumours surrounding the Underground Subway system and the Monorail in Liberty City making a return. I believe at least one of these will, most likely the Subway, as Graffiti is often found in Subways, and this game already has one mission where you have to teach some guy a lesson for removing your graffiti. Also, the Subway system is considered dangerous for muggers, and it generally should be a part of every 3D GTA.

Also, on the graffiti, maybe you can tag some walls yourself? 💡
 
I suspect Subways will be back. But there'd have to be some reason why you couldn't use the subway to get to the other places earlier. But maybe the earthquake (just my theory) make the subway collapse too.
 
Here are i think some new screeshots:

No, sorry, they're old screenies.

When they say the peds will have better AI and stuff and that people will REACT when you kill someone in the street, does that mean that cops will be alerted if anyone sees you kill someone? It would improve the realism but sometimes you're just walking along and you feel like getting out you SPAZ shotty and shootoing one person randomly. I don't want to lose that ability to vent my anger:(

Most of those screenshots are part of the first set that came out after the official ones, except for the second last one...

Btw, I don't think they will have that (Blake), but if they do, I don't mind...for some things I like Realism > Psycho...but I don't think they will do that...it's a significant part of what makes GTA = GTA!
 
Excactly, that's why I don't want it, it takes away from the games GTA-ness.

Just on the internet, and im pretty sure ours will be censored again, so if you want an uncut version get it from NZ and its $99.95NZ (works out to $89AUD at the mo) so its a lot cheaper and uncut. isnt it supposed to be 109 or 119 here?
Also knowing australia it will be delayed... im definitel gettin it from gpstore.
Peace
 
That's a REALLY good idea, can you give me a link to the site. I haven't ordered mine yet so it would be good -- as long as it's still PAL.

Blake
 
gpstore yeah its pal, uncut, cheap and they reckon they will get it a day earlier so we would get it in our hands around the same time as OZ.
Peace
 
New Info:
-There are three cities and twelve small towns, such as Angel Pine and Dillamore.

If you've seen all San Andreas screenshots like I believe I have so far (available to the common person of course), I've noticed that in the country, the only type of people I've seen(apart from Law Enforcement) are the same guy with a Cowboy Hat and checkered shirt...hopefully there is a lot of variety of people in SA. Maybe they're just not letting us see the variety of this game until we buy it, and then we will most probably be in shock, and I think this is most likely the case.

I think the key feature in SA is variety.

(Also, I love the look of the country...the Rockstar Team worked well on graphics and detail)!
 
I've always wanted someone to make a game that was like the sims but has a GTA feel to it. And I think i've gotten my wish!:)

Stop torturing us!

Here is some more:
- The twelve small towns often consist of only two junctions and a few buildings, featuring a liquor store, bakery, pottery and much more.
- When flying, the radar map changes into an attitude instrument (artificial horizon), so orientation is easier.
- Realistic truck trailer physics.
- You can swim, dive, find oxygen tanks (scuba gear maybe?), and more.
- You can start your own gang and get your own gang weapons and cars.
- You can train your muscles to become stronger.

*SPOLIERS BELOW*

Three countryside missions:

In the 1st mission CJ has to help his buddy, who is hunted by a motorbike gang and needs a diversionary maneuver. So Carl races trough the forest in a jeep, with the gang after him - since they assume the victim is in the car. CJ has to stop them from destroying the doors to keep it a secret. As soon as you pass the checkpoint race your cellphone rings - your buddy is safe, and you get the $400 reward.

The 2nd mission starts at a trailer park. CJ is blackmailed into killing an important witness, who hides in a hut on Mt. Chiliad. Carl arrives there with a Sanchez, first killing two FBI agents and then the witness. Since the blackmailer wants to see evidence, CJ takes a photo of the corpse, and drives back to the trailer park.

For the 3rd mission in the demonstration, Rockstar used a cheat to spawn a Dodo to save time (claiming that using a car would have taken them 15 minutes), and lands near a small hut in the forest. There the gas station mission starts, where CJ and the yet unknown girl try to steal the tanker.
 
Rockstar using cheats? :lol:

I like the sound of some of these missions. Much better it seems than VC or III.

I've already had most of that info here. But some of that information is new to me.👍
 
It's that time again.More info:
-- Carl can attack enemies from behind, after hiding and sneaking through the shadows.
-- Carl's ability to swim and the length of time he can stay underwater for depends on his fitness and how often he practices swimming.
-- Members of The Orange Grove Families wear green clothes.
-- The Ballas gang members wear purple clothes.
-- Models will include up to 50% more polygons than Vice City.
-- Bicycles will move forward when the X button is held down, but tapping it will make the player travel faster.
-- Carl can roll to the side during combat on the press of a button.
-- Players can now pivot the camera around the car, in order to gain a better view.
-- A choice of haircuts are available, from shaven/bald heads to 'Afro' style cuts.
-- Not only can players choose new hairstyles, but choices of beards and other facial hair will be at their disposal.

Yours Truly.
