jus-ad-bellic Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 Folks, perhaps I'm over-reacting, but I'm concerned about the low density of traffic in central Algonquin (Manhattan). It just doesn't look realistic in the trailers. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jus-ad-bellic Posted April 13, 2008 Author Share Posted April 13, 2008 I haven't seen that shot; but the footage of Times Square (Star Junction) shows traffic there as pretty light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just doesn't look realistic in the trailers. Thoughts? Ok tell me something, if you were on a timed mission and you had to go from one side of Algonquin to the other and you had to drive through lituraly hundreds of cars? Would you care about the density of traffic? But still there is defenently going to be more going on on the screen at once then in other GTA's.

Trazom Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 first of all we dont even know the location of that place. to me it doesnt look to be in Algonquin. And GTA isnt that great in density. Let be real now. I wish the density was 4 times as much. Give me LOTS OF CARS. unfortunately hardware power doesnt allow it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congested traffic would force you to find another means of transportation, just like in real life, if you know about it ahead of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pumpkinpiehaircuttedfreak Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 (edited) first of all we dont even know the location of that place. to me it doesnt look to be in Algonquin. And GTA isnt that great in density. Let be real now. I wish the density was 4 times as much. Give me LOTS OF CARS. unfortunately hardware power doesnt allow it. that makes no sense. if its not Algonquin (the main part of the city), and it still has dense traffic, then why wouldnt there be even more in star junction?? the trailer vids were obviously taken from an unfinished game. something that i really dont care about, but is kind worth mentioning is that there are 3 taxies and three almost identical muscle cars(different cuz their color) in the above pic. i was betting they would fix that problem where the same cars keep re-appearing.. but it really dont bother me much. - i hate nitt-picking, the game is gonna be great.

Good point, for example you might have to jack a moterbike and go through in between cars instead of going around? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the muscle cars, the issue with cars being cloned will never be totally fixed, that's just the way it has to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point, for example you might have to jack a moterbike and go through in between cars instead of going around? Exactly. Or if you're able to, a helicopter. But yeah, that's exactly what I'm talking about. Either that, or just drive your car down the sidewalk and do a bit of Carmageddon. Or take a taxi. I can only assume/hope you can take taxis to missions, and since you can pay the guy extra to automatically speed the drive up, you should always be able to get somewhere quickly if you have to.

dave1927p Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 i am worried that there will not be enough cars and peds too. some pics looks good and other not so good....i guess we will have to wait to see. I know tthat R* made there as many as possible. So i guess it all came down to how much the 360 and ps3 could handle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[-Vice-Andreas-] Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 wow..are u guys serious..never seen ppl take a game so seriously..traffic..ur life is really concerned about that? Well dumby, it's called Grand Theft Auto for a reason! Fool Cars are important, reason being the game (originally) is about stealing cars and cruising around in them. I'm unsure. Some screens have enough traffic for my liking (like most the screens you guys posted) but there are a couple of screens I've seen of Star Junction with like ZERO cars and peds. Probably early build, so I'll judge when I get the game myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
