NYC5 Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Do you think Niko will be able to sky dive off of buildings, helicopters or whatever is high enough? Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/306366-skydiving-in-gta-iv/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
defibrillator Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Nope. Nothing in the game will be high enough to do so. Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/306366-skydiving-in-gta-iv/#findComment-1057387817 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simseth Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Yes I think he will. It doesn't fit his character, but probably about 1000 features won't fit his character, and this is new york city. So base jumping (which I believe you mean when you said buildings) he will most likely be able to do. And considering you can hold onto helecopters, I'm sure you can jump off too.

defibrillator Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 (edited) Base jumping Sky diving No bullsh*t sherlock. edit: What I'm trying to say is that sky diving takes place at a much higher altitude (approximately 13K feet) and considering the Empire State Building isn't even 2K feet (the minimum requirement for deploying a parachute) sky diving is a negative. I also doubt base jumping to be a feature as well.

True, but I believe even if you opened your parachute too late in san andreas you would die or suffer from alot of damage. One of the Housers said that it wouldn't be a feature in a very early preview, but unfortunately the majority of them are lost to an abyss. I'm sure someone else remembers this as well, but I am pretty sure it won't be featured.

xheartshapebox Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I became pretty obsessive with skydiving in SA towards the last few months i played it, i thought it was one of the best features! Seriously hope its included somehow in IV...mabye helicopters will be able to reach an unrealistic height which is high enough for skydiving?

fishermanGTA Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I say bring it back, was a nice feature in SA. Would be a great escape method from the cops as well on those high roof tops Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/306366-skydiving-in-gta-iv/#findComment-1057388678 Share on other sites More sharing options...
LukeWALTON9190 Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 well if youre in a helicopter and it is next to blowing up, it would make sense to be able to jump out and it doesnt really matter if it fits his character imo they should value fun over realism... I mean, this isnt a sim and I thought skydiving was a great feature in SA so to be able to do it in IV would be amazin because of the physics engine and ragdoll thats just my opinion though Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/306366-skydiving-in-gta-iv/#findComment-1057388746 Share on other sites More sharing options...
xCOMMANDOx Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 If you remember in SA there was that one building in LS thats everyone jumped off of, that was only 1,018 feet high. The Empire State building is 1454 feet high, so you can definetly jump off this building, and it will be very fun!

Grand Theft Columbo Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 You guys keep forgetting about Niko's past experience. I don't remember the military affiliation he was a part of, but I do remember he was an excellent swimmer. I think base jumping would be included in his armed forces combat training. I think it's a very likely feature in the game. Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/306366-skydiving-in-gta-iv/#findComment-1057389291 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bawls Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 I'm thinking about a mission that could be pretty cool You have to kill someone with your sniper from the head of the Statue of Liberty and jump off of the statue... Deploy your parachute and land on a boat to escape polices or just jump off of the higher level of the Empire Building Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/306366-skydiving-in-gta-iv/#findComment-1057390252 Share on other sites More sharing options...
