post the things u wished there were is sa

 

 

i wanted the game to have seasons and the weather coordinated with the seasons . for example if it is december every one will do chirstmas shopping and/or decorate the buildings. cj will have to wear winter clothes or he will freeze to death. and if it is very cold u will see snow coming down and the ploughing truck clearing the streets from the snow. i would have liked it if the plants reacted with the weather if it is autmn you will see leaves falling down or if it is spring you will see leaves growing from the trees.

 

i wonder.......... can it be done as a mod?????

If they put that in San Andreas it going to be annoying to have Carl Johnson wearing winter clothes or else he will die.

 

Why didn't they add the feature where you can skateboard in the stunt park?

Skateboard model, Textures and Hud Icon exist in the game.

 

Also I wished that they let us play basketball with your homies in San Andreas.

many people have thought of that and it'd be nice indeed. but since it'd require exe modification i seriously doubt it'll be done as a mod.

 

and yeah, since time passes 60 times faster in SA than in the real world, it might become annoying to have to keep changing your clothes.

Great idea, but when was the last time you saw snow OR freezing temps in southern California.

 

It would have been perfect in GTA3 though.

 

And to answer the topic. Working car washes.

Yeah, like what was said above, the whole winter thing would kinda mess up the realism of being in southern Cali. But stuff like hail could still be possible, right?(I'm not from California and know little about it, so i'm not sure if it actually can hail. So dont flame me over it) And since they let you take those big a$$ planes, why not let you take one of those gigantic frieghter ships always docked up?(Just a thought, don't go apesh*t over that either)

I would have liked constuction, robbing stores and banks, and also car wahes. All these things seem like they were there at one point but taken out. Snow would be great, I don't care if it does ruin the realism, I would still like to see how it would work, maybe for future GTA games. Changing clothes would kind of suck though. The number one thing I wish there was in this game is extremely rare occurences like bigfoot or pigsy. I would have liked something in the game that happen on such a rare occurace that people would still debate it's existance and therefore if you found it you would be as excited as you were when you beat the game or flew in the jetpack. It would add a little extra incentive to continue playing after you beat the game.

It would have been cool if the rival gangs driving past would do drive bys other than during turf wars. Or shoot back from their car if my guys shoot at them from my car.

I didn't mean for it to sound like a flame smile.gifsmile.gif

 

Yea, being able to jack a freighter would be great, talk about fun mowing over small boats. smile.gifsmile.gif

Just a few small thingies...

 

- Ability to store your jetpack in a garage

- Trucks with trailers driving on the roads/highways

- Less crazy drivers

- Ability to pick up the phone while driving a car and during missions/gangwars

- Ability to climb ladders

- Faster changing clothes

- Less crazy drivers!!

- Taking a cab to a location instead of jacking one

- Trains stopping at stations more regulary (or maybe an option 'wait for train' on stations?)

- More reliable spawning of reward vehicles (hunter, hydra, bike school rewards)

- Less crazy drivers!! (or at least turn off crazed drivers during missions)

- Eating at a drive-through without exiting the car (during taxi missions, for example)

- Slopes in SF a little less steep so all cars are able to climb them at low speeds

- Better reward for dating Michelle/Helena

- Less crazy drivers (no, REALLY!!)

- Ability to put a car on a train for easier import/export

- Black boxvilles marked on map, along with cop stations and hospitals

 

Hmm... that list turned out a little longer than I thought wink.gif

Oh, and please note that I still love the game, even without these things.

About EVERYTHING said before, except that stuff 'bout extremely rare occurences.

 

But that climate system sounds really teriffic!

And I don't think it would go to fast, 60 times faster, alright, but it still would be 0,5 months, that's 15 (game)days, that's 360 hours of gaming, that's long, even with the 6 hours you loose for saving, sounds good to me.

 

I would also want you to have to sleep in the game, or you'd become tired, like, when you sleep, you skip time for as much hours as you'd like!

Alcatraz.

Def Alcatraz that would of bin sooo cool im sure ther is enough of a gap there between SF ans LV for a map modder to make it

Share on other sites

yeah i was just thinking, it would be really cool if a map modder would enlarge the ocean and create another island, a volcanic island like hawaii which will be as big as san fierro and linked to the mainland with an underwater tunnel. and on this island there will be a volcano which will erupt every now and then and destroy everything in its path including the streets and cj devil.gif and sending a black cloud of ashes to the main land (sanandreas) and it would be cool if wctr will say on a news flash the the volcano is erupting or forcasts of eruptions

What happened to that feature where the police can cling on to your rear bumpers just to get you busted?

Like the one you see on terminator the movie. It looks like they removed it? Did they?

 

Edit: After I saw the picture its actually not the rear bumpers the police is clinging on. Also added the screenshot here.

This makes the police chase more thrilling.

Yeah, and less crazy drivers, too.

 

Changing clothes be faster *and* decrease your wanted level by appropriate # of *'s.

 

For instance, going from t-shirt and Jeans to Tux/Pimp suit would be quite a change.

 

Drive thru would have been killer, because losing a tank at level 129 after 20 seconds to grab a meal

is complete BS, IMO.

 

Better slopes in SF, yes, or less asshole'ish choices of vehicles (3rd SF race/mission) like an Infernus in an

uphill race. Fast car, but you can run uphill faster FFS.

 

Marked locations better, yes. And/Or the ability to mark secrets on the map as well as stars. Can't tell you

the # of times I missed some stars because of the draw distance still sucking (Think: Blueberry field).

 

The #1 on the top of my list: Better grfx control, like in Max Payne 2 (R*/Remedy)...Don't like an effect?

Turn it down or off. System can't handle some things as well as others? Tailor it so it can.

 

Oh, and better frame limiter and refresh rates. 60hz sucks, R* and gives headaches, and with the FL turned on

it is migrane inducing.

 

#2: Choice in control schemes and interation: A) Weapon aiming scheme is ok until things get hot and heavy, and most of

us would like a choice in the matter.

 

B) Camera has a lot to do with it, on foot not so bad, but entering/exiting a vehicle is frustrating because you can have

the camera pointing backwards and be running fowards. Stupid beyond measure, IMO.

Cars, it gets even worse. Planes/choppers are inconsistant at best; hunter camera sucks major rocks, seasparrow is almost

tolerable, but across the board it is so below cars because of the 360 freedom.

 

C) Actual control: Diving was one of those that pissed me off when trying to map to something other than LCTRL...never

worked. What's wrong with the crouch key? Surface = Space? And diving for deep oysters needs the frame limiter, or

you *will* drown. Not cool.

 

D) NUMPAD5: WTF, OVER!!! I'm still trying to untrain myself to hit num5 to lean back, and it hast to be num2. GTA3 could do it, and VC also. Not SA? Because of this, stunts are hard to pull off, jumps are not easy to control/recover and drivebys are

and excercise in frustration and false starts.

 

It adds up to "The game is good, but lack of control just ruins the flow". Or to quote Airplane! "It's like sex with your sister.

Sure it feels good, but everyone knows it's *WRONG*".

A Rollercoaster in Las Venturas cool.gif

 

More realistic driving, like signals when cars turn right/left and automatic or manual transmissions

 

Traffic jams on freeways

 

Selecting weapons with 1,2,3,4,5 etc

 

And animals would be cool (to run over) devil.gif

That was only during the Reuniting the Families mission. Notice how the only screenshots are of a Greenwood. I think the reason they took out Alcatraz was because of boat school since you can see there was originally an island on that map at Toreno's ranch.

Yes to animals, especially bears in the woods!

 

More intelligent OGF members (is it any wonder they need your help?)

 

Hare Krishnas!

 

Yes to a better wardrobe system

 

Yes to drive throughs

 

more bars and bar fights

 

a shopping centre or department store (like in VC)

 

The ability to climb ladders (this really annoys me when you end up in the sea near SF airport)

 

Fighting turf wars for the triads in SF and LV

 

Snow on Chilliad (snowball fights would be funny)

 

The ability to drop in on Sweet, Woozie etc etc after beating the game. Could work similar to the GF missions or like a building interior but without the coffee at the end!

 

Actual Hill Billy clans who you can start feuds between.

 

The option to pay or not in fast food restraunts, bars etc.

 

Houses that could actually catch fire in the hoods

 

The ability to destroy the roadside power lines and cause temporary black outs in areas

Actually it's 36 hours of gaming (or 0,05 months).. I think you forgot the 0 in 60..

 

And is that thing about diving (having to turn on the frame limiter to dive deep) true? 'Cos I don't get it - how could the frame limiter affect diving?

Actually that could happen if the physics engine wasn't running on a separate thread, or if the game alloted too much time to the rendering thread (wrong thread priorities) - but that would be stupid, wouldn't it? And it would also affect other things besides diving (like jumping with a BMX)... So in short - I still don't get it smile.gif

 

Back on topic!

I agree with mostly everything said above, but in addition to that I'd like it if:

1) there would be more gangs (and gang-held territories)

2) gangs would attack each other's territories (and not just OGF territories)

Mainly what I wanted to see in SA is the whole state of Liberty City converted in snow in the SA map.

I wish there was:

 

More improved weather. (ie. Snow & Autumn)

More different kinds of boats. (ei. Jetski & Ferry)

1 Extra airplane to hijack (the massive passenger one that takes you to different islands)

The chance to play as other characters is various missions

And a skateboard as feature in the skatepark and not just a bike.

well a thing i did not wish that was included: GLITCHES & BUGS

 

looks like rahkstar2.gif was going to do a whole lot more of things........

 

my 2 conclusions:

 

1) as they say, r* found the easiest way out

2) they don't respect us gamers like they used to.

 

in vc the glitches and bugs was 90% less and had a steady frame rate. now the framerate varies

 

die.gif GLITCHES AND BUGS

 

 

And a skateboard as feature in the skatepark and not just a bike.

 

that would turn gta sa into cjps sa
