LuverOfLuv Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 What I'm really not feeling right now, is the animation, it doesn't look how GTA should look like (from what I seen so far), I mean the way the animation for GTA III, Vice City, and San Andreas, was very original...

LuverOfLuv Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Engrish makes me laugh so bad. ''Ran the man on the pile'' lmfao Engrish is a Japanese type of thing, not German... This from Wiki: Engrish refers to grammatically incorrect variations of English, often found in East Asian countries. Spelling is also incorrect sometimes. While the term may refer to spoken English, it is more often used to describe written English, for which problems are easier to identify and publicize. The term arises from the absence of an "l" sound in the Japanese language which means Japanese people frequently pronounce "English" as "Engrish".

Darrel Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Car controls bad? Perhaps they just weren't any good at it. Apparently it takes practise.

Grand Theft Columbo Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 My translation: When Gamepro got the controller to play the game by them self, something awesome happened. After the first stepps with Niko, some Guy ran them nearly over. He stumbled an fell over. A cop came running by with a weapon in his hand - apparently he persecuted that guy. The cop told the guy to stand up and after that, he brought him to his police car. The guy didnt complain when he was brought to the car. This wasn't scripted. That is something that can happen everywhere in Liberty City. That is f*cking incredible! It's hard to believe! Thanks for the translation mate. Diddo! Not too much longer now..... Can't wait for the unscripted events to unfold before my surprised eyes.

gregg414 Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 about the car controls being bad...can some German speaker with a copy of this magazine give us the context they said that in, did they give any specific reasons or just say it was bad?

Grand Theft Columbo Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 I'm thinking it's because they're used to the old GTA feel of how cars performed.

nebo91 Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Does somebody have scans? If this way I ask it for opening them on this forum. For present I only found moments this miniature cover of the magazine : no new screens in these two magazines!!

nebo91 Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 i've read the GAMEPRO article once again and they say that the carcontrol is the same as in san andras. i think driving in san andreas wasn't so bad. people in germany, austria, switzerland prefer GAMEPRO to Man!ac. Man!ac which says that the carcontrol is bad, also thinks that the graphic is disappointing...bad news... BUT ONCE AGAIN, GAMEPRO IS BETTER AND MORE TRUTHFUL THAN MAN!AC.

MrKlorox Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 The control won't be "bad" though coming from the "rocket propelled rollerskates" of SA's car control, you're bound to be "bad" at it. Many more previews have had positive things to say about the driving... why get paranoid because a contextless translation OPINES that "the car control is bad". Also each car handles differently and I highly doubt the magazine got to drive each and every one in the game.

Slamman Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 well 'schlecht' does actually mean 'bad'. not just more challenging. i'm german and this word just stands for bad... errr, so it does. *ahem*. Sorry about that... how about i make up for it by asking you to translate the text properly? Why? I already did one.

PersiaHassasin Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 They must suck at driving. This isnt Mario Cart. I hope its like DIRT with car damage in mind on performance of vehicles.

theReelBigFish Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 I read the whole article, and I think these Manaic-guys are just f*cking stupid. They wrote that the car control was bad, and that the whole game was not much better than gta:sa, they were not really impressed. In the preview they gave between 85 and 90 points.. out of 100!!!

Mister Pink Posted March 18, 2008 Share Posted March 18, 2008 This was translated by Google then edited by a retard. Your a fcking retard. If you want to contribute to the topic do so in a fashion that is productive. How many languages can you f*cking speak? This man made the effort to translate a magazine article and because you find it hard to figure out what he was explaining doesn't mean he's a retard. Fair play to him trying to contribute. I understood the article despite some mistakes. It makes me sad to realise that that such ignorant folk such as you frequent these forums. @Topic starter: Thanks for the info.

Hopefully fire trucks will be added into this unscripted type of activity, where people and cars and whatever end up being on fire like when niko causes destruction. I already know that ambulances and police cars will be speeding around saving and persecuting people, but what about the good old firemen?
