Soliex Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I understand R* is getting more and more realistic with every GTA release. Which brought me to think about the typical GTA solution for a car flipping, Burn and Blow up. It's not realistic for a car to automatically catch fire once it flips. So in GTA IV, Im wondering will a flipped car catch fire? It would make sense for a flipped car to just remain a ... flipped car. Btw, this is my first post and Just want to introduce myself..

JerryBaby Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I'd like it if they didn't, unless it's a flip off a really high bridge or something, in which case it should just blow up instantly, movie style. I also hope cars will be more 'bullet proof' than in previous GTA's. No matter how long you shoot a car door, it will never, ever cause the car to explode. Would fit in nicely with the new cover system in any case.

rasomaso Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Wasn't their something about it in the reviews? It's harder to flip them or something? Well it could be this way, because I think they already stated that cars will now feel more heavy. To tell you the truth, I felt like driving plastic toys in GTAIII series. And I really hope it doesn't blow up flipped. Wondering if some car blows up surrounded by other cars, will they still blow up? I mean highway disasters as in San Andreas when my car blew up and it started the WWIII.

ps360 Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 9Lives: an unrealistic thing about the previous gta-games where that the cars always exploded when they where to badly damaged , is that still in ? JT: Yes, u can "kill" them on other ways , if you are not that good at driving, it could be that the engine doesn't hold it and the car will stop driving, also the damage effects are much more realistic 9Lives:and what if the car flips ? does it catches fire ? JT: no,but you wont see a car flip on its head that often, because of the improved physics engine link Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/309151-car-flipped-will-it-erupt-in-flames/?do=findComment&comment=1057444998 Share on other sites More sharing options...
T.I.P. Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 (edited) I know I've said this before, but I think they should make it like The Simpsons (show) where everything bursts into flames and explodes when it tips over - bicycles, baby carriages, etc. ha Edited January 27, 2008 by T.I.P.

phs1234 Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 No, LINK Quite a dodgy source you've got there. There are some big confirmations for some major features in there, such as unlocking sections of the city, spawning. You would think this info would be on other sites as well. Coupled with the abbreviations ("u" for "you") and the fact its from some obscure German (?) site, I wouldnt put too much stock in it.

MA3LK Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 i guess its not going to be a big problem cause the physics of the cars and everything are massively improved.

mmmfloorpie Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 I remember a quote in one of the reviews that Nikko had to jump out of a car on fire... So I was a little worried that this means there is the car catching on fire and blowing up after too much damage... But time will certainly tell... I guess the car just dieing would be cooler anyways...

mcgriz Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 I'm pretty sure they won't explode like in the old way. I can imagine a huge accident with the car ending up flipped over would create an explosive situation, apart from that, unless your car is really damaged then if you manage to flip it, it'll probably just stay flipped and I don't expect that you'll be able to flip them back over by sprinting into them like the old games. I didn't know Niko doesn't die if the car explodes hmm...
