Outer Haven Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I noticed this awhile back. I apologize if this has been brought up before but I haven't yet found anything on it. Anyways, when this screenshot was released I noticed Niko was looking vertically because of how we are able to see the belly of the helicopter. Well notice Niko's back and how it's perfectly straight with no real noticeable neck bendage looking upward. Well, why don't you stand up right now and pretend as though you have an RPG in your hands like Niko and look up vertically with your back and neck straight. Can't do it, can you? I didn't think so. I hope they fix this because... well it's not humanly possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OptimumPx Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Well, the helicopter might have been trying to pull back in order to escape Niko and his rocket launcher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FelipeVinhao Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 In my opnion, his in the top of a tall building, so no visible building around. The helicopter is tilted back, what gives the impresion that you're under it, while you're not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hellknightdemon Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 wow i didnt think about that, very interesting, so much for realistic, maybe idk its just a game im not freakin out about it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outer Haven Posted February 8, 2008 Author Share Posted February 8, 2008 Well, the helicopter might have been trying to pull back in order to escape Niko and his rocket launcher. I don't think so. All we see is blue sky and Liberty City is full of skyscrapers so we would at least see some buildings if he was more horizontal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSkillz187 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Oh...My...GOD.. You are kinda sad...but anyway, you can only see less than half his back..So what are you talking about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dotseoem Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 But we don't see Niko's feet. He could be on a boat or rooftop. Boat do sway from side to side. He wouldn't need to bend as far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
towlie Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Ok if your a helicopter pilot and you see a guy with a RPG pointed at you about to fire, your gonna sit there right?WRONG your gonna try to get out of there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go back 3 posts and that's my opinion about not having buildings around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Outer Haven Posted February 8, 2008 Author Share Posted February 8, 2008 Look at how flat his back is. If he was bent, then we'd see an arch. @NoSkillz187: Sorry for being so "sad". I guess that's your way of saying observant. So thanks. @Dotseoem: I doubt he's on a swaying boat... @Filepe: Most likely he is... but the bend in his back isn't there. He seems too stiff.

NoSkillz187 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 So is that what you spend your time doing? Looking for arches in backs? Well i dont know why im having this conversation, but you cant even see the part of his back that would arch. Unless you have a birth defect and your upper back arches.

hellknightdemon Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 (edited) well if they can accidently put the freakin game map in a trailer they couldve made another mistake EDIT= wait!! look at the way the shadows are on his body it looks like he is standing strait because the sun light is to the side Edited February 8, 2008 by hellknightdemon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FelipeVinhao Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 @Filepe: Most likely he is... but the bend in his back isn't there. He seems too stiff. Yes. But if he's in the top of a building and the helicopter is in the same level as he is, he doesn't need to bend his back to shoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you have a birth defect and your upper back arches. @Filepe: Yeah, I agree with you. If I'm wrong I'm putting my bet on your assumption. He could very well be on top of a buliding as the helicopter is evading his RPG. All I had to do was glance at the picture and see that his arms and back were incorrectly bent if he was looking up vertically. Sorry for actually paying attention to what I look at.

DeadShock Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I understand that we're running out of less and less things to talk about on these forums, but Christ... Have we really resulted to criticizing posture? No offense to the OP, but I think you are paying a little too much attention to detail. I'm sure that if anything is wrong with that screen shot, it was either the camera angle, or a glitch that will be fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FelipeVinhao Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Maybe he has some posture problems. Remember, he's not as young as CJ was on GTASA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bwag505 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 outer heaven your a dumbass, the helicopter isnt directly above him.... he is barley bending back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FelipeVinhao Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 outer heaven your a dumbass, the helicopter isnt directly above him.... he is barley bending back. Whatcha mouth. No physical aggretions, please. But yes, he's not UNDER the helicopter, but BESIDES it, in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RidingHigh Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I hope they fix this because... well it's not humanly possible. Niko isn't human. He's a series of carefully organized pixels and digital molecular matter controlled by a physics engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMR2007 Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 Holy s..ugar Analysing pictures and claiming there are problems in them is a bit of a weird way to pass time waiting for this game, but do what you please. I agree with whoever said that the heli is pulling back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
