flyinhawaiian Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 I know there's an option to literally drive around with friends on multiplayer and just stroll through the town, so my question is, when you join a random game like that, will you comply and simply be a tourist, or will you hunt down the other multiplayers and off them like a hitman? Seems kind of messed up if someone just wants to tool around and have fun online, but then again, that's what single player is for. I can just picture two friends online, driving a car, when all the sudden I pop out with an RPG..... Haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tld Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 (edited) I wonder how many people will be allowed in a free roam game at once? Theres gonna be alot of sneaking around on multiplayer because who would you rather kill a ped who doesnt give a crap or a online person who will get pissed Edited March 14, 2008 by tld Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HyperHawk Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 I'm putting my money on 8 max, though they might just do 2 like crackdown, but I hope its 16+ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScarySquirrel Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 I would be surprised if it was any more than 2 players free roam online, if we even get that at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GastonGlock Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 i thought amount of online players had been confirmed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nam Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 eather 8 or 15+ but really, no idea it will be good though im sure of it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pariah87 Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 2 is very standard for a free roam of this magnitude.. hopefully Rockstar is trying to set the bar.. "Trying to crash Live first day" and make it like 4.. because thats pretty good if you can go around with 3 buddies causing Havoc free roam.. especially with all the physics and beauty of this game. Then the team death match will be 8-16.. prolly 8 and be made of cut out parts of the whole map IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NikoIV Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Theres a priview hands on for multiplayer coming out on the 18th so not long to wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wesker_kage Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 It's been confirmed that 16 players limit. As for the free roam, I would assume it could be done for all 16. I don't see why not...Wonder though if players are hosting or a personal server, because if players are hosting doesn't the area have to be unlocked on their system for all players to visit?

pariah87 Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 No this is why hype gets too big.. cause people think they kno everything and say free roam will be 16 players then when people get it and it isnt they bitch about it.. I can guarantee it won't have 16 player co-op. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wesker_kage Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 They already confirmed there is no co-op. 16 players makes since, especially since team deathmatch and so forth. We just have to wait and see... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gta-guru Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Im guessing the free roam thing (or whatever it is with friends) will only be by invite. I dont want some little kid in my game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ps3_,man Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 id love it if there were 50+ people with chainsasws running down the street while a sports car runs him over then someone blows that car up helicopters in the sky......oops i just wet myself with exitment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3igRaw3 Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 No this is why hype gets too big.. cause people think they kno everything and say free roam will be 16 players then when people get it and it isnt they bitch about it.. I can guarantee it won't have 16 player co-op. speaking of people who think the know everything....^^^^^ you dont know sh*t... 16 players is a deffinite possibility...when it comes to free roam and other gametypes co-op? why the f*ck would there be 16 player co-op...that wouldnt work... if theres co-op its most likely going to be one other player you get to take along on missions...

Emm Ell Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 Wow, pretty hyped about this article in the Official News. 1 thing: On gta4.net it states there is 15 different MP modes, and it repeats ''Car Jack City'' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurt_hectic_2001 Posted March 14, 2008 Share Posted March 14, 2008 This is the best news I've heared in a while and it totally makes my day! Multiplayer is going to rule! I encourage everyone to look at the scans in the official news section. What an awesome way to start a weekend! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcgriz Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 I imagine free roam will be between friends, not just a random array of people, that wouldn't be fun if like you say, just want to mess around with a mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
