GTAGhosts Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 (edited) Personally, the throwing people off sounds pretty amazing. I wonder if this is gonna be mostly just part of a mission or what. How do you feel about it? EDIT: Wonder if it'll look like when CJ would hit the ground real hard. *Moan* and wiggle wiggle.

How do you feel about it? Two words: FRICKING AWESOME. That is going to be so fun doing it the first time. Wonder how good the splat will be.

Raindancer Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 Lets hope you are able to get a motorbike up to the top of one of those building with a hooker riding on the back.

ryuclan Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 well i'm not thinkin too much about throwin gpeople off buildings.....but more about throwing people in general. This means there will probably be a grapple system, so u can toss people, or do other things once u grab hold of them.

Hmmm nice bike Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 there should be a grapple like in VCS so you can toss em off. how was the grapple??? It was okay, but you had to toss 'em quickly before they let go and ran away/kicked your ass. I hope they bring it back, but that you can toss people farther over time and that they don't get out of your grip.

Rick88 Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 This sounds awesome. From the way they announced it, it sounds more like you'll be able to do this anytime when meeting with gangs, sort of like a side mission. I'm curious to see how cool it'll look when you throw them off and they land Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/277722-skyscrapers-and-throwing-people-off/#findComment-4229643 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snake Without a Tongue Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 Awwwwwwwwwww... Sommmmmmmmme... Also, they said LC will be the size of SA. What the hell?

It's not really going to be as big as SA. It's actually going to "feel" as big as SA. Cause I mean, this game is going have 5 different sections, so it must be really big. But they mentioned its not exactly as big as SA in terms of square miles. But the reason why it's going to "feel" as big, is because no space is being wasted on countryside/deserts as it was in SA as said by R* Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/277722-skyscrapers-and-throwing-people-off/#findComment-4229673 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnarf Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 is it really even close to the size?? i coulda sworn he said it was bigger than any other city, keep in mind there were multiple cities in SA Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/277722-skyscrapers-and-throwing-people-off/#findComment-4229961 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Houser only said LC will be larger than any city so far and smaller than SA. So a city that is just one city block larger than Los Santos would theoretically fit what the guys at Rockstar are saying. I'm not expecting anything monumentally large. And regards the whole "throwing people off skyscrapers" stuff I think it's just something you get to do once in a mission cut-scene. Maybe the game engine will allow grapples and grabbing things, but the throwing people down bit would be a once-only animation similar to many such features in San Andreas. Don't forget it's in R*'s interest to inflate any game feature (even if very very weak and peripheral) as much as possible.

Supernautus Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 that isn't the problem, the problem is, will they actually do it in a way where you'll grapple, or maybe a context sensitive button for when the guy is next to a railing.

Let me give you an example: Magazine: So, fargo, how big is your cock? Fargo: <Laughs knowingly> Well let's put it this way, it's not as large as a telegraph pole but it feels as large as one. Magazine: Fargo, in an EXCLUSIVE interview with this magazine, confirmed that his cock is slightly smaller than a telegraph pole. See?
