Losing Weapons...

Recommended Posts

Losing weapons in this game can both be a big issue and a non-issue. On one hand, a lot of the game is supposedly hand to hand combat. On the other, it's hard to acquire weapons in this game.

 

But for the actual point of this post: Losing weapons at a hospital never made much sense to me in this game. Being arrested for a violent crime makes sense, but I don't get the whole losing weapons at a hospital thing.

 

Also, going back to San Andreas, I liked the idea of girlfriends being giving you special abilities such as being able to keep your weapons in certain situations. Does anybody have any ideas for alternatives to girlfriends that would work in this game?

I hope you have cellars or gun/amunition cabinets in safehouses so you can store weapons without losing them. Also I would think if a cop seen you walking on the street with a rocket launcher or any weapon and even if you didn't cause any crime they would still try to arrest you before you cause a crisis.

You also have to remember this is just a game. I don't wanna get busted just for carrying an unconcealed weapon around.

 

That's why GTA4.1 (I guess we can call it that, if Vice City was 3.1, and San Andreas was 3.2) needs to take place in New Hampshire. LIVE FREE OR DIE!

I wonder if we can store weapons around the city in bins etc.

 

Seems a bizzare idea I know but it would make sense with regards to this realism approach, Niko carrying the bag and what not.

Niko: "Those stupid garbage men! That's another $600 wasted! Roman isn't gonna like this."

I really do think weapon storage will be an integral part of the game.

 

Perhaps not in bins specifically, that was an example. But I can see it happening. icon14.gif

Off topic: In New Hampshire you can walk around with a loaded weapon in-hand? NO WAY...I need some confirmation on this.

 

OT: weapons storage is HUGE for me- I hated that after you get wasted, the hospital confiscated your weapons and never gave'm back. WTH kinda hospital was that, and what'd they do with my hardware? I like SA's twist where your girlfriends gave you perks if you treated them well enough...not having to worry about where my guns and ammo would be made me a touch more reckless because I didn't have to worry about losing'm anymore. That was the only reason to play it sorta safe, you know, look for cover, methodically take down targets, don't expose yourself needlessly, yada yada yada.

 

Once I dated Katie (nurse) and the gun enthusiast chic, it was ON. I'd walk into a situation like The Man With No Name and lay waste to'm ALL. LOL

 

Dying still sucked, though.

 

Edited for addition: By the way, if GTA were set in New Hampshire, like, the only fun place to go to would be Six Gun City! Love those motorized rubber tubes!

I liked VCS way which was you could bribe someone $2000 to get all your weapons back. It made it too easy in some ways but saved a lot of frustration and made reloading the game less necessary. If they replicated this with varying prices for the amount of weaponry it may work better.
