andsteele Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 You think we will be able to turn off the cars when we park up in IV? In previous games, the car always remained running with the lights on. Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/305938-car-starting/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
steveb07 Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 the engine might stop when you get out of the car...but that's just about it Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/305938-car-starting/#findComment-1057379114 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slamman Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 It brings to mind Burnout Paradise City, for me, I find it a very nice touch indeed! Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/305938-car-starting/#findComment-1057379121 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodGino Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 An option to keep it running for a quick getaway, or otherwise it turns off when you exit. I think that would be practical. I personally think this is something small they will change, but it really doesnt affect the game in any way so whether they do or dont noone will really care.

ceedot Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 If there can be a button for it, without interupting gameplay, then ye, although it's pointless. Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/305938-car-starting/#findComment-1057379134 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCM Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 I hope it's in, too. I also think it'll be pointless, unless it ties in with the gameplay. Such as, if you leave it running then the car disappears (gets stole perhaps) sometimes. If you turn it off, then it doesn't get stolen. Or maybe work it in percentages. Car running = 80% chance of it disappearing Car locked = 20% chance of it disappearing Something along those lines anyway.

steveb07 Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 why would you stop your engine in a mission anyway? well only if it is required to do so. I will always keep my getaway vehicle ready to go Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/305938-car-starting/#findComment-1057379156 Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodGino Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Well yeah having that option might then decide how likely it is to be stolen, that makes sense and would add to the gameplay. Maybe if you left it unlocked and running you might come back around the corner and see someone speeding away in it, so you pull out your rifle and pop the tyres as the guy careers into oncoming traffic. Then without a vehicle but leaving a bit more satisfied you sprint like crazy.

MysteryGamer Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 (edited) I read in an older preview that you will still be able to hear the radio when Nikko gets out of a car, and switching off the car engine will turn off the radio. I think they mentioned this in one of the Kikizo previews.

Gtafanatic13334 Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 You know what would be funny, you jump out the car quickly and leave the engine running to go brush your teeth or cut your hair (or kill someone, but lets be realistic here!!).. So, you jump out your car, only to turn around to see some little knobhead driving off it it laughing hysterically at you!! Ohhh, I crack myself up sometimes!

I know I'm going to get pissed off at the car jacking punks in the game. I can see it happening on a regular basis. Just imagine cruising around in a comet for the first time(after spending an hour searching for one). You stop at a set of lights and some punk ass thief (in Alderney ) opens the door and throws you onto the street lol. I will hail the nearsest taxi, put a gun to the drivers head and order him to follow the car. This would be a cool feature.

TMR2007 Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Well, aslong as you're getting the laughs, Micky.. Anyway, I fail to see any real reason for this, if its required in a certain mission then it will happen automatically.

I lol'd then, everyone at work's looking at me like I'm a wierdo, it's pretty obvious I'm not doing the end of month account then eh?! Yeah, that would be funny for the first time, seeing Niko sat on his arse on the road wondering wtf happened, but would end up annoying... Let's hope R* make it very occasional.

doomdiver_16 Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Maybe to help with a quick getaway you could leave the engine running and the door open just like old GTAs by just tapping triangle (or the 360 equivilent). Whereas if you hold the button Niko turns the engine off gets out and closes the door.
