The heist don't sound optional in GTAV. They make up the main story.

Yeah they said early on that heists are the core theme of the game. Which is totally cool by me, I love heist movies and up until now no game has really done them justice.

I figure Rockstar figured out that the best part of GTA4 was that huge heist, so they made the plot around that.

I really want to know how many players the online part supports. The end of the trailer made it seem like its literally a mini-MMO.

September 17th is so far away. Hnnng. If they release a pc version as well I will buy that too. Rockstar showed with MP3 that they have learned to make the rage engine work with PC. Open world is definitely different but still. I have only bought Dark Souls and GtaIV twice and I don't regret it.

Samurai Sanders posted:Yeah they said early on that heists are the core theme of the game. The actual heist part wasn't anything at all GTA4's Three Leaf Clover aftermath is one of my favorite gameplay experiences this generation. It nailed the idea of being cinematic while still feeling organic despite being structured by being a mission. They know how to do that stuff well, but I'm wary that they could make the heist portion interesting or dynamic. Before it's been go to this place and this place and this place and now shoot. Anyway, GTA5 is already an instant buy. Are you goddamn kidding me? That video was like watching some 13 year old's scribbled "ultimate game" list while hopped up on pixie sticks and Jolt only someone actually made it and polished it and it comes out in a few months. Please oh please, let the PS3 port be good. Edit: Harlock posted:I was reading an interview about it a while back where they said each player will experience the game a different way. They could just be buzzwords in a sense, but also speaking towards the customizable nature of how the heists are pulled off. Yeah, this is my hope (dream). Like any heist would have weaknesses and strengths and if you put the best people in the best scenario is goes well but if you put a hothead in crowd control you get early shots and police presence. And if you pull off a gimmick too often, the police get wise and crackdown on you. If there was ever anything I wanted from a GTA game, it was more player defined missions. From the beginning I wished you could do stuff like set waypoints and have a shooting gallery turret mission or rob a store and have to make it to the getaway helicopter through a gauntlet. I doubt it will happen this time but it sounds like they're adding a degree of customization with these heists. Ape Agitator fucked around with this message at 18:54 on Jul 9, 2013 |

Yeah you can basically speed run GTA4 solely using the taxis. When I replayed the game when the trophy patch came out, I never drove anywhere unless mandated to because it was always faster to yell for a taxi and teleport.

^ ^ ^ Edit: Going to hug my PS3 for a little while. So many good times, so many to come. Jet Ready Go posted:http://nihongogo.com/2013/07/tokyo-jungle-mobile-hits-the-playstation-store/ So this sale is super timely because I just replayed Lego Star Wars and have a hankering for more Lego. I assume Hitman Trilogy and Prince of Persia Trilogy are good enough playing games (as in none of them play like bad PS1 games as far as controls)? I missed literally every one of both collections during the PS2 era.

I think they've said the PS3 is the lead platform for GTAV which is why they're running all the promotional materal on a PS3.

Blitz7x posted:<PS3 Version Info> Not to be all Conspiracy Theorist or whatever, but is it possible that "PS3 Version" and "Actually running on a PS3" could be considered separate things here? I remember what GTA4 looked like in videos on youtube and commercials. Then I got it and while the graphic aesthetic and lighting were the same, it was a jaggedy, flickery mess. So much so that I actually felt more than a little misled.

Why is it so unbelievable? Time and time again shows that the last years of Sony's console, the developers really start to get a knack of how to use it. I mean come on, PS2? We had God of War and holy poo poo that was a graphical masterpiece for it's time. Granted it's Rockstar, but I'm inclined to believe they can tap that much power into the ps3. edit: Apart from a PS3 devkit which has certain things that a regular ps3 has, not really much of a difference from what I seen. I could be wrong though. Shindragon fucked around with this message at 19:17 on Jul 9, 2013 |

Couldn't "Running on PS3" very well mean "running on a PS3 emulator on a PC with all graphical settings maxed and sharpened and tweaked", or is that not possible?

That GTA5 trailer makes me think I'll spend approximately 4,235 hours just driving/flying around and maybe by the end of 2014 I'll be tired of that and finish the story. I mean holy motherfucking poo poo. I don't care if they're lying about the "running on a PS3" thing (and I don't think they are), I don't care if there's pop-in and the framerate sometimes drops, look at how loving huge and diverse that game world is for gently caress's sake.

I have already pre-ordered a PS4, and I see no reason to cancel it... But man, it seems like I'm never going to play the drat thing. Between GTA V, Beyond: Two Souls, Dark Souls II, and for some reason I'm excited about Lightning Returns... Just doesn't seem like a lot of time to devote to the PS4. I ordered the Watch Dogs bundle, and every one of those PS3 games looks more interesting to me than Watch Dogs. It's a dumb problem to have for sure. I'm not actually complaining either; it's just a really exciting time for video games and I don't what to do with myself.  And that's not even counting stuff like Saints Row IV or Arkham Origins that I know other people are seriously excited for.Now back to Dress Up Simulato.... err, GTA V. Everything they release just keeps looking better and better. It only took me like six months to beat Red Dead Redemption due to open world ADD, so I see this one taking me roughly until I'm on my death bed.

Obviously "running on a PS3" means it's recorded PC footage burned onto a bluray being played on a PS3.

The video looks neat but I was sort of hoping they would ease up on the side BS. I personally thought shooting pool/darts/whatever in GTA4 sucked and was mildly annoyed you were forced to do each of them once, and they are showing golf and stuff in this game now. Maybe it'll be awesome, but to me it's like, Tiger Woods is a thing, tennis games are a thing, you're already making a huge open world game, why do they always want to devote developer time to that stuff that in the past has been sort of half-assed? I didn't care for poker in RDR either. Like the next game you can join the Los Santos football team as a tailback or something and they'll have a poorly engineered Madden equivalent. I'm sure there are folks who love these minigames, and I can't complain if you can just ignore them obviously, but previous games suggest an early mission to introduce you to the dating mechanics/getting fat mechanics/bowling mechanics when I want to get to the heisting. I guess as long as friends aren't constantly calling you asking to go see some titties, and you can generally ignore that side stuff, that's fine, but please don't have missions where you have to golf 3 holes or whatever. Those are always dull moments to me in a game full of mayhem and sandbox fun. Basejumping however, looks wonderful. My current favorite GTA memories were taking all kinds of vehicles off the peak of Chiliad and messing around in the abandoned airfield and surrounding mesas in SA. The feeling of altitude in some of the video looks intense.

Because GTA is an average: Shooter, driving game, fighting game, etc. If it's not loaded with side crap to do it's just average.

I'm getting closer and closer to just cancelling it and waiting for a PS4 sale some time in 2014 while I work through all my PS3 games.

So although there will be golf and tennis and stuff, it shouldn't be half-assed, because they're cutting down on it all to just have a few, really good minigames, instead of a load of slightly crap ones.

Ideally, the minigames would be a tutorial of sorts for some actual gameplay purpose with an option to keep playing the tutorial if you wanted. So the dating thing would just get you to understand their relationship system that you later use to talk a mob boss out of killing you. And the golf would be to get a sense for a system for flinging grenades a long distance. Unfortunately, they weren't really that in GTA4 and they were clunky and slowly paced to boot. Maybe they'll either get them right or make them a passive part of the background instead of the more nagging nature they were in GTA4.
