Th00mz Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Hm, i'm curious, what do you guys think.. Will someone from Rockstar themselves, be here on this forum? Or will they check out our topics and stuff, just for their game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
batanga Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 I'm pretty sure some people check these forums from the R* staff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thor1to3for5 Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 R* has talked about looking through fansite forums in the past. This is arguably the largest and most well organized of those forums in the USA so I think it is safe to assume that they have visited more than once. They at least know it exists because they have sent exclusive screenshots to individual sites and this site recieved one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rory990 Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 yes when bluespot spoted the map in the boat rockstar must of read these forums because they commented on it and said that the fans are talented in finding stuff they didn't know was there ! and get feedback of the fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez261 Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Read this Makes mention of just how much they do take notice of forums... Correct me if Im wrong but this seems to be the biggest GTA forum I know of... so you can bet your balls they are reading the forums here...

Cleansation Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Trust me devs cant stop reading about what people says about their games on forums... But at this point if it isnt already done yet they are probably working day and night and dont have any time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GutterSharkz Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 yes when bluespot spoted the map in the boat rockstar must of read these forums because they commented on it and said that the fans are talented in finding stuff they didn't know was there ! and get feedback of the fans No, Kikizo was the one that told them about it and they were all impressed and stuff. They never came on here to check it out. In one of the new interviews on IGN, the art director for R* said that he goes through hours of forum posts and topics.

ceedot Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Rockstar have been known to check around the Forums, to look at ideas and such. I don't see why they wouldn't. Largest GTA Fanbase + some people come up with some good ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
osmaeel Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 well just put gta forums or grand theft auto forums and see what forums comes first on google or yahoo i would say this is the biggest forums for gta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuzzknuckles Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 At least three of my ideas that I've only ever mentioned on here have ended up in GTA games (LCS, and IV), so they must do. Either that or they're psychic. Signatures are dumb anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DjMiikkii Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 yea most likely they check most of the forums when they get the chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarkPassenger Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 There will be people from Rockstar, EA (sni**er) and all other interested parties. Finding them is the problem. While we're on the subject, have you considered who you'll be voting for in 2008, because Barack Obama wants freedom for America... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LCM Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Yeah I'd say they check it frequently, for suggestions, feedback etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slamman Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 yes when bluespot spoted the map in the boat rockstar must of read these forums because they commented on it and said that the fans are talented in finding stuff they didn't know was there ! and get feedback of the fans Someone in the press mentioned it to Rockstar who were surprised themselves. See what happens when a story passes from one person to the next? It loses more and more factual information! At least I remember what I read about it. The above is closest to the truth. Rockstar have been on here in terms of certain members of the staff but in regards to Leslie, Sam, Dan, or Aaron, or the audio guys like Craig and Allan, they are most likely not cruising around here because they manage all the various details of production and are just too busy. -Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Capricornus Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Yeah I look through the forums all the time to see what new ideas the fans are are coming up with. Many of our fans have some of the best ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RE: my quote- Basically what I was pointing out. The art director has been Aaron Garbut for some time. I plan to list the SA credits so we can compare who stayed on to improve GTA in the various key staff....Unless someone wants to beat me to it. I might not get that all typed up quick!

Cecil Holmes Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 They said that they do check the fansites / forums in their IGN interview, the first one if i'm not mistaken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommo400 Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 They said that they do check the fansites / forums in their IGN interview, the first one if i'm not mistaken. Yeah I read that. They said they check the forums, but also that they don't put in what the fans suggest! Because it wont be as exciting if the fans already expect it. Well, something like that anyway.

blaack11 Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 well if they are... you guys all remember the thread "hide blaack11's gamertag in gta iv" directed to rockstar... it got deleted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QwertyAAA Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 They've put GTANET into their manuals as a fan site. Of course they watch these forums. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uzi 9mm Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 It's not exactly hard access for them to get here, it's only typing in one address and pressing enter, 2 more clicks and your already on this page! Seeing as they are around PC most of the time I wouldn't be suprised if someone from R* has been here and left while I was typing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hsacic Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Trust me, they do watch fansites, forums, and other stuff. I´ve gotten confirmed that R* have seen my recreation videos, and they also gave me a nice oppurtunity that I can´t speak of. Thanks Rockstar!
