You have no idea how GTAForums explodes for even a single hint, let alone two official pictures. They start opening pictures with notepad, searching for dates and starting brand new theories. They are lunatics there, but okay lunatics.

[–]SmoothWD40 495 points496 points ago

That helicopter says POLICE in the back. Spell that backwards and it says. ECILOP if you take away the first and last letters you have CILO which sounds like CEE LO - Ceelo green is 200 pounds. If you convert that to dollars at the current rate you have 308.0800. Now remove all the 0s and you get 38.8, so on August 19 they will release the new trailer for the game at 8am!

Saved for when they actually release the new trailer at 8AM on August 19

This is a near perfect example of GTA Forums. And pretty much any conspiracy theorist.

When you crash your car, have to play without cheats to get 100% and there isn't a fucking car for miles around and you have to walk this giant city at a goddamn crawl and GODDAMMIT WHY DOES IT KEEP SPAWNING DUMP TRUCKS I NEED TO FINISH THIS MISSION

[–]Ryusko 57 points58 points ago

So to sum up this thread....

Those look great! I hate GTA IV.

[–]LiveByTheGuN 183 points184 points ago

That water looks good for drowning hookers in.

[–]traumalt 26 points27 points ago

Just hope that it gives you full refund, unlike previous GTA games.

[–]illogicalexplanation 22 points23 points ago

When you beat the pimping missions in SA the whores pay you!

[–]strikervulsine 11 points12 points ago

I really hope they put more of the "crazy" stuff from San Andreas back in. That is still the best GTA in my mind.

Don't get me wrong, I loved the mechanics of 4, but missed the depth and breadth of SA.

[–]I_MAKE_USERNAMES 5 points6 points ago

If anything they're gonna go more real, since Saints Row pretty much nailed and cornered the goofy sandbox.

[–]illogicalexplanation 1 point2 points ago

Right there with you. Just replayed SA over the past three months and it far outplays 4 in terms of "fun".

If San Andreas was the "fun" version of the Vice City Engine, then it makes perfect sense that Five will be the "fun" version of the Engine from GTA IV, so we should be rewarded.

[–]GrandmasterSexay 15 points16 points ago

In Vice City there are several fat guys drowned in cement shoes in the water. They better look super HD in this game.

[–]illogicalexplanation 3 points4 points ago

Holy shit, you weren't kidding.

I also like shapes.

[–]spacebrony 1 point2 points ago

Seeing as to how GTA IV couldn't run on my 6850, I might have to disable color in this one just to get 3 fps.

[–]Fishfisherton 32 points33 points ago

I hope we can actually buy property in this one.

[–]I_Am_Crake 6 points7 points ago

I hope Rockstar came to their senses and realized every GTA game from now on should be an optimized remake of Vice City until the end of time. In fact, I'd happily pay for a Vice City 2 game that was an exact copy of the first except with updated graphics.

[–]phongbong 21 points22 points ago

The problem is, San Andreas was the better then Vice City.

[–]Manwelle 47 points48 points ago

I just hope it's a better port to pc than IV was, several years on and IV is still a glitchy mess that requires NSA super computers to run without graphical glitches.

[–]neo7 13 points14 points ago

It will be.. I mean look at Max Payne 3. One of the finest optimizations for the PC. That means, if they follow the same pattern, GTA V won't be a port and (therefore) developed in parallel for the PC. Hopefully.

[–]beggin 6 points7 points ago

Max Payne 3 was one of the best PC ports I've ever played.

[–]PanicBear 5 points6 points ago

Because it's not a port.

[–]soapgoat 1 point2 points ago

max payne 3 wasnt a port, the pc version was developed concurrently with both the xbox 360 and ps3 versions

[–]WilsonHanks 1 point2 points ago

Max Payne 3 was also made up of tiny areas and long narrow sections. We'll see how well they handle another open world game.

[–]010222545545 13 points14 points ago

turn dem shadows off boy. reflections too, if your computer is truly poop.

[–]spacebrony 4 points5 points ago

3 ghz quad core and a 6850 can't run it at 20fps unless I turn literally EVERYTHING down low.

[–]antwonownz 16 points17 points ago

I have a 3.2ghz quad core 8gb ram and a 6850 and i get 60fps maxed out...i call bullshit

[–]010222545545 4 points5 points ago

what resolution do you run it at? that really seems weird to me, because my laptop runs it fine at medium settings w/ low shadows & reflections.

[–]Schmich 2 points3 points ago

I'm sorry but GTA4 was released what a year? later on PC....and you needed a high-end PC of that time to run a CONSOLE port. It was quite unacceptable.

[–]D_Steve595 3 points4 points ago

I know it's inconsistent, but for the record, my laptop with a P8400 @ 2.26 GHz, 9600M GT, and 6 GB DDR3 runs it great on low.

[–]CndConnection 11 points12 points ago

I'm looking forward to see what they do with the physics of aircraft in this game.

The helicopter physics were enjoyable in GTA IV and I really liked how you could damage the rotors and have your tail blown off. I wonder if they will go all out for the planes.

[–]Vitalic123 9 points10 points ago

Ah man, you know what, lately, there haven't been any games that make me feel so fucking giddy so early before release, but the GTA franchise never fails to make me feel this way. SO FUCKING EXCITED.

[–]dtthelegend 14 points15 points ago

If they can promise a few hours of in-game parody talk radio like chatterbox or VCPR, I will buy this game on day 1.

[–]pacman404 17 points18 points ago

This is pretty much confirmed for every future GTA ever. They would never get rid of that. That's like getting rid of grand theft, or automobiles

[–]ObamaStoleMyKFC 10 points11 points ago

FUCK YES. I loved VCPR. Bring back Maurice Chavez!

[–]ironicalballs 6 points7 points ago

Well I didn't like going outside in the first place. Jokes on you Rockstar.

NO RC MISSIONS THIS TIME DAMNIT

[–]AdityaK96 6 points7 points ago

I don't care if they keep the same graphics as GTA4 as long as the gameplay is a lot better. Man why must we wait...

[–]slyf 32 points33 points ago

To people complaining about graphics: Shut the hell up, you are what is wrong with gaming. GTA4 and GTA3 were good because they game-play and driving was fun. Not because you could see your fuckin face reflected in a penny.

[–]neglect_your_dad 19 points20 points ago

graphics aren't everything, but they are something.

[–]WilsonHanks 1 point2 points ago

I'd say they're an important something. This sudden dislike for people who care about graphics is silly. Why can't we have good gameplay AND good graphics from a AAA studio?

[–]DorsalAxe 8 points9 points ago

They confirmed planes too.

I know we could see a plane in the trailer, but they confirmed we can definitely fly them this time. :D

[–]tregregins 20 points21 points ago

It seems like they are winding down from Max Payne 3 and starting to ramp up to GTA5.

[–]nazihatinchimp 14 points15 points ago

I'm down with that.

[–]_oogle 0 points1 point ago

Different Rockstar development studios entirely.

[–]PEWP_FARTS 15 points16 points ago

Thank you for posting those! I am so pumped for GTA V so I love anything new about the game, those shots look awesome! Though they don't really tell us much of anything.

But I'm a little sad about this line from that answer: "We just have not been in a position to show more of the game than the trailer and will not be for a while yet."

[–]rushietheplushie 1 point2 points ago

We just have not been in a position to show more of the game than the trailer and will not be for a while yet.

Feels bad, man.

[–]yeoller 1 point2 points ago

Yea right. Rockstar has such a tight lid on this, they arent going to let up. They don't have to anyway.

[–]Knowatimsayin 9 points10 points ago

i want to kick those people into the water

[–]dudemeister5000 8 points9 points ago

This looks like LA. Has anyone ever thought it cool if GTA was in some other city (say Sao Paulo, London, Paris, Madrid, Tokyo etc.). I mean thanks to Vice City and San Andreas I can find my way around Miami, Vegas, San Fran and LA without being entirely lost. Would be great to get to know other cities that way too.

[–]Johnny_Is_Truant 11 points12 points ago

I want to see a GTA Glasgow where you have to fight off knife wielding teenagers after refusing to buy them booze.

[–]CinLordOfGwynders 3 points4 points ago

GTA Northwest Arkansas where you have to sit inside, play videogames and whack it all day because there is NOTHING ELSE TO DO.

[–]scotthowardADTR 1 point2 points ago

My kind of game!

[–]Powerfury 9 points10 points ago

I'm really surprised they have not done Chicago yet.

[–]DubiumGuy 11 points12 points ago

Chicago is too close to the faux New York setting of GTA4 if you ask me.

[–]ILiveInNYC 1 point2 points ago

I would love to see a Chicago/Detroit combo ... or Philly/Atlantic City/Washington DC trio.

[–]falousco 17 points18 points ago

The point is that it looks like LA. It is based in the city in San Andreas; Los Santos (The Saints). In the first picture you see the new version of Glen Park, the park in north LS. The second you can make out certain buildings from LS, but the spacing is much larger, I can spot the city hall building, police building and various ones from LS.

[–]dudemeister5000 1 point2 points ago

I figured as much, that it won't be EXACTLY LA. My point was whether someone thinks it would be cool having other cities as models for gta (not only USA-cities)

[–]jook11 3 points4 points ago

Yes.

[–]throw_away_your_TV 4 points5 points ago

Damnit, now im gonna have to buy an xbox 360 to replace my broken xbox 360 to play this one game.

[–]RocktimusPrime 3 points4 points ago

Two well selected screen shots showing two very different locales. That's what GTA4 was missing, everything felt/looked the same throughout the entire game.

[–]pwrsrc 4 points5 points ago

Sweet, Keanu Reeves is in it.

[–]PayphonesareObsolete 17 points18 points ago

I really want them to add a better 3rd person view when driving. In GTAIV, there are times where you're literally behind the car so you can't see what's in front of it. Just pan the camera up and over the car you're driving and it's all good.

[–]knifeparti 2 points3 points ago

All of my thises. I hated the driving angles. My camera was perpetually wobbling up and down while adjusting it everywhere I went.

[–]GoGordon42 1 point2 points ago

That was the whole point - you get in a truck and the view is high, you get in a sports car and the view is low. I agree, it was annoying to be flying and not be able to see where you were going, but I assure you it was intentional.

[–]ajpos 3 points4 points ago

I actually experienced the same frustration. The camera angles were not suitable for driving - you couldn't see very far in front of you.

[–]Lost_in_BC 3 points4 points ago

I see you're going fast. Let me just lower the camera for you.

[–]Jerkfish 23 points24 points ago

I just hope they keep the serious tone that they established with GTA4 and that they keep it grounded in reality.

I have Saints Row for the over-the-top stuff.

[–]mpness 25 points26 points ago

Funny that you say that since the popular opinion around these parts is that "GTA IV took itself too seriously! I didn't buy the game to be serious! All its predecessors were silly not serious!"

I agree with you though.

[–]Jorgwalther 16 points17 points ago

Indeed. I am with you two on this issue. I loved the more serious tone of GTA 4

[–]Johnny_Is_Truant 11 points12 points ago

Yeah I'm in on this one as well, the more mature tone of the 4th made it for me, from what little we know it does appear they are following up on that anyway, thank fuck.

[–]WilsonHanks 1 point2 points ago

I agree. Saint's Row is way too unrealistic to be immersive. GTA IV was truely immersive because you did crazy shit in a real world with real laws and physics.

[–]ManMadeHuman 12 points13 points ago

I hope it isn't as buggy on PC as GTAIV was. I bought it and couldn't do anything with it. It was pretty though. When I picked it up for 15 on PS3 to finally finish it, I was disappointed in how much worse it looked.

My problem with IV was a video Memory leak. No matter what setting I had my graphics on, it would crash with the message "not enough video memory" or something like that.

[–]cdoublejj 1 point2 points ago

well the horrible ailiaising in the screen shots let alone the flat and smudy looking greenery doesn't help their case.

[–]FourOfFiveDentists 2 points3 points ago

I am going to have sex with this game.

[–]dexter07 2 points3 points ago

[–]Sentrevial 2 points3 points ago

[–]plagues138 2 points3 points ago

Not to be hateing on the consoles, but if those arn't PC screens, then rockstar have found some magic way to make GTAV look great on consoles.

[–]scarface910 2 points3 points ago

[–]BlackSmokeDemon 6 points7 points ago

[–]d4nm3d 6 points7 points ago

I've seen alot of people whinge about various things with GTA IV but i really can't disagree more with them.

Graphics too bland.. It was base don New York.. not a leafy suburb.

Driving too unrealistic.. Have you ever tried to drive full speed through traffic?

Not as expansive as San Andreas.. Well no.. it wasn't.. didn't really find that this drew way from the experience to be honest. Plenty to do in the city.

I would be happy if they kept the same gameplay and graphics and simply placed the whole game somewhere else with different missions.

Obviously, if they improve everything then that's fantastic.. but honestly, GTA IV was a great game!

[–]Kaiburr 17 points18 points ago

Glad to see such diverse locales, that's something GTA IV lacked unfortunately.

[–]Marshall_Lawson 156 points157 points ago

Indeed. No previous GTA games have featured a smoggy city or an upscale beach with a pier.

[–]Kaiburr 8 points9 points ago

I had the woods from the trailer in mind.

[–]AntoineSanis 1 point2 points ago

Well i have to say it's really beautiful , but i hope the story line will be fun because during all the last GTA the only things i've down was killing grandmother in the street , that was fun until i discovered Saints Row , with is very,very funny i wasn't bothered doing mission ,and i continued to kill grand ma ! all to say i hope they didn't just improved the graphics but also the story

[–]Froey 1 point2 points ago

[–]chiisana 1 point2 points ago

Lies! Those are photos with GTA logos super imposed on them!

damn, crazy graphics...

[–]gecko887 1 point2 points ago

Those screenshots look really nice. As a Florida resident though, I can't help but notice that the cabbage palms are a bit off. They've got the dead fronds on the bottom right, but the top ones are too thinned out. I'm from an area where there are a lot of artists and some of them can paint the cabbage palms really well but others have a lot of trouble with them. The tops of cabbage palms aren't that thinned out unless they've been trimmed recently, and if that had been done the dead fronds would be removed and the trees would look very unnatural. I think it's interesting that people who make models in video games have some of the same difficulties oil painters have.

[–]Hudek 1 point2 points ago

[–]Dragontre 18 points19 points ago

The only franchise that can be the exact same shit every release and I get excited no matter what.

[–]ASKSDUMBTHINGS 41 points42 points ago

I guess different city, new types of vehicles, new guns, new characters, improved graphics and physics = exact same shit

[–]cynicroute 14 points15 points ago

It's different colored shit.

[–]Guyana_Bandit 10 points11 points ago

What if you're colour blind?

[–]is_that_a_question 7 points8 points ago

it'll feel different

[–]Dragontre 2 points3 points ago

And the gameplay will be exactly the same. This is not a bad thing at all.

[–]floatablepie 6 points7 points ago

Less different than new Zelda titles, and they get ragged on for being more of the same. Though both are still great and always get me excited.

[–]Kaddus 24 points25 points ago

I just want to say this: "GTA V better be a game-changer." I got way too hyped up for GTA IV only to find that it was pretty much GTA III with better graphics and bowling. It's bullshit. I want the facial technology of LA Noire, the immersion of Red Dead Redemption, the Gunplay of Max Payne, and the driving of Midnight Club. Take the best of every other Rockstar game and mish mash it into GTA V to make it a metaphorical equivalent of getting sucked off by Sasha Grey.

[–]010222545545 90 points91 points ago

MULTIPLAYER. MULTIPLAYERRRRRRRRRR AHHH MULTIPLAYERHRHHOAJUSNJLZGBUO

WHY DOES NO ONE TOUCH THE MULTIPLAYER JESUS FUCK ARE YOU ALLERGIC TO FUN MAYBE, EVERYONE GETS BUSES AND HELIS GOD DAMN

EDIT: Seriously guys, at least try the multiplayer before you say GTA4 was boring. Your a retard if you judge a sequel before trying one of its most ambitious and new features.

[–][deleted] ago

[–]yeoller 1 point2 points ago

For a game this old, I'm fairly confident most people have tried it.

And it was fun, for a time... The open world freedom to do what you want with who you want. But like most things, repitition started to sink in. Launching your 100th car into the air just didn't feel the same. Trying to land on the cup seemed, fruitless after so many attempts.

GTA IV was an amazing leap into the next gen, but it has become dated and (thanks to some contracting by a to be nameless heartless corporation) there was little in the way of gameplay expanding DLC.

The multiplayer in GTAV will be equally as revolutionary in our time now.

Sunrise, sunset. Sunrise, sunset.

I thought gta IV delivered. It was a great game all around imo

10/10 from IGN. I don't know what this guy is talking about.

It was completely a game-changer. It had a more serious tone and amazing story, and that's what I loved about it.

I got way too hyped up for GTA IV only to find that it was pretty much GTA III with better graphics and bowling. It's bullshit.

Are you serious? Did you even play either of those games?

[–]RogueVert 4 points5 points ago

ya forgot the melee combat from Manhunt/warriors

&

the seasons changing, in-game room trophies & awesome outfits from Bully

And the realistic table tennis of Rockstar Games presents Table Tennis.

But Sasha Grey voiced Viola in Saints Row 3. You don't want GTA to become Saints Row, do you?

Ian Mckellen played Magneto, and LOTR didn't become Xmen.

TIL. I am playing that game again

I got way too hyped up for GTA IV

I want the facial technology of LA Noire, the immersion of Red Dead Redemption, the Gunplay of Max Payne, and the driving of Midnight Club

I think you may be setting yourself up for disappointment again.

And the cheat codes of San Andreas. Seriously, the wide-open world of GTA:SA plus the numerous and easily usable cheat codes made that one of my most-played games of all time, and I never even actually played the story. Then they followed it up with GTA IV, set in a dense city with 10 useless cheat codes that had to be entered on a fucking cell phone.

Rockstar are amazing at making games with incredible worlds that you can explore and dick around in forever. But the missions are, for me, unbearably boring. Yes, I could drive this package from one house to another. Or, I could fly a Harrier above Area 51 and see what happens.

Just reading the name "Sasha Grey" brings back PTSD style flashbacks of all the scenes I've seen her in. Up-vote for inadvertently giving me a boner.

It has become my sole purpose in life to survive long enough to play this game. After completely GTA 4 for the 13th time, I think I am ready to move on..

[–]downvotemaster 3 points4 points ago

I'm hoping we get more buildings to go into and explore unlike GTA4.

[–]grudgeSC 1 point2 points ago

It looks identical to GTA 4. Give us a gameplay trailer instead.

[–]metaknight95 1 point2 points ago

i hope in this game, the single player character isn't an emotionless robot. That annoyed the shit out of me in GTA4, when Niko, or Louis (i didnt play LATD) reacted with little to no emotions..

[–]Gwynnie 1 point2 points ago

Weird, it pisses the hell out of me when they are. Not everyone is an angsty teenager.

Note: A midground could possibly be a good thing... just please not too much

[–]CinLordOfGwynders 1 point2 points ago

The thing about Niko is that he doesn't give a fuck. He's seen so much shit in the war that he has no emotion.
