I am the only one who thought that Hermes screenshot was SA when they first glanced at it? Just shows how they have really upped the actual look of the game to almost SA standards.

 

Also it looks like the Hermes is on an angle as well as the road it sits on.

altthough i did not mistake it for san andreas, it did remind me of SA because of the orangeish yellow sky. i always thought that SA was TOO yellow and orange

notify.gif *BRAINWAVE* Do you think that the house with that Maverick (which is where the hunter spawned on the first island), is it possible that will, at one point be your savepoint? Let me receive your input.

That hotel looks like it's near the Colonals boat

The Infurnas is in Ocean Drive

The Helipad is obvious

I think that the Tower is those Aprtments Across the street from Pay and Spray

Another Infurnas on Ocean Drive.

Jimmy_86, A friend of mine from GTAGaming.com forums has an idea about the #6 location.

I am quoting his post...

 

 

 

Link: http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b200/Jim...Vicemap4pic.jpg

 

Looking from the yellow cross to the east.

 

Imagine that the trees aren't there (at least the ones on the right) and it seems quite good. That square sign thing is the 2102 Washington Mall pink sign with a neon flamingo on it and that small building on the right in the background would be the eastern end of the southern bridge.

 

It doesn't seem perfect but perhaps some of these differences are minor changes over the two year gap. What do you think?

 

-Jimmy_86

 

What do you guys think?

 

Oh, these new GamesTM screens are too easy to locate this time. biggrin.gif

(fixed, this isn't MSN Messenger)

 

But yes, I agree. The vance Household was described as a "Mansion" during one magazine. I think, (and have been thinking aobut it) that this is their savepoint. I mean, it has a helipad, and Lance is a pilot. Not to mention it's the direction from which they come in Vice City. (The only helipad in that direction too)

i think the only explanation for the hermes is that it's in a totally new area. perhaps on a road that used to exist prior to the construction of the airport.

2 comparisons I've worked on so far.

 

Screen # 1.

Location: Ocean Beach (Knife from the previous page has done this already though)

 

GTA VCS

GTA VC

Screen#2.

 

Location: Viewing from the bridge (connecting Starfish island & Washington beach)

GTA VC

Working on more in a while. smile.gif

 

Edit:

 

Screen # 3

Location: Washington or Ocean beach (didnt notice exactly, viewing from North)

Notice that, Street lights are now available on the Left Lane and possibly a new traffic signal at that position.

Sorry for the late update guys. I worked extra hard to get the angles right. And I can't find number 17. mercie_blink.gif I was in a hurry.

in 1 of the magazines.. it said that vic and lance start off in a trailer park. that trailer park could possibly be on leaf links where the golf course was. then it gets destroyed annd they build a golf course

So your saying the screenshot was taken, after the trailer park was destroyed? And before Leaf links was made? You think that's plausible? Get rid of a whole area, mid-game? I doubt it. No gta game has taken away part of the map (I mean the actual topographic map, in the start menu), left it blank, then showed a construction.

 

But, then again, it is an early build. Perhaps you may be right. But taking the screenshot in account, I doubt there will such a big change.

it is an early build, and I think that it will be on leaf links. and i do think that it is plausible. lets say that the trailer park is not on leaf links, lets say there is no island that turns into leaf links. do you think its plausible to build an island in 2 years? usually islands come to be because of an underwater earthquake (or somthin like that)

I would like to comment on this post even if i know its a few pages old.. ^^

 

Exactly the same happend with LCS! Remember that screen of Toni with that sniper rifle and those police cars on stauton island, with that green/blue body warmer. That was a early build as well.. Hell Toni's face was even different then the one eventually would be ingame !

 

Leaf Links will be in, Even R* would not erase a whole space like that.

 

VCS will be a revolution, no matter what San Andreas brought us. We don't need it in Vice City..

The trailer park is on the area in VC where you blow up the building for Avery.

The Toni pictures from the beta version were just aesthetics though, the island was built and final. They were just showing of how it would look running when the screen shots were taken.

 

Remember the game is practically complete, I’d assume they are just testing it now and getting media ready for more magazines and internet sites. From those pictures there is no leaf links, and I don’t expect it to be in the final VCS either. A lot can happen in 2 years and this is the first sign of it.

In the pic where there is no leaf links you can see that there is no water where leaf links is supposed to be. So either leaf links just didn't load, they only have just removed leaf links or have left a huge hole in the sea for a while.

20. Washington Beach (viewed from the northwest)

This is interesting. In the background, the tall buildings’ models don’t look the same. Some small differences can be seen. Perhaps the buildings at this distance have a lower polygon number than in Vice City. Also, the building at the right (shown by the arrow) isn’t in 1984.

 

 

That building is there in '84. #18 & #21 holds the proof.

At first, I didn't understand what you we're talking about at all.

 

But now I see it! Asif you got some really good eyes, man! Let's give him a hand! I should be ashamed of myself blush.gifbored.gifsad.gif

 

I'll update it now... (with another "thanks to")

in vc does the pc version of the helipad that the hunter spawns at not have an h on it. cause the one in ps2 version does. so its not new.

The reason its a spoiler is because it ruined that surprise for me and if its true then it can be constituted as a spoiler.

 

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this or if its old bumpage but, its clear to me that you will have to destroy Chunder Wheel so there will be a new building which will then in VC be foiled too.

GTavice is run by the mods of this forum, so they don't know anymore than we do. But your right,there isn't gong to be any extra land, just bigger in 'Things to do' scale wise.

Can somebody confirm that hermes is actually a "CUBAN" hermes?

It could be one of a different gang.

Or it could also be an ordinary car.

 

Just a guess.

Any ideas? smile.gif

I wish it took place in '88. Then we wouldn't have all these "Could that have been there in '84?" problems. We would'nt have Lance or Vic then either confused.gifconfused.gif
