Can you wield dual weapons as in GTA:SA? If not then I think GTA:SA beat GTA:IV by a long shot as far as creativity is concerned.

GTA4 is striving for reality. Duel wield, especially with MP5's and the like - not happening.

And how was their aim? Single pistols will be held with both hands while in aim mode.

i doubt you've seen an actual person shooting two 9's.

i know i'd be the F U C K outta there if they were...

 

anywho, i don't think it'll be in gta 4. imagine playing online and getting killed pretty much instantly by some punk 12 year old who's dual wielding.

 

@Klorox: nice sig man!

Well 9s arent that powerful and this was a stocky built type dude so he pulled it off but was not accurate at all

@DQ_4944:I think accuracy/realism will be higher priority for most people than dual wielding. That's not to say a more-fantasy GTA won't happen again eventually... just not in GTA4.

 

@blowdro420: thanks man!

Im glad it isnt the only time people use dual weapons is when there goofin at the range. Its fun once then its just a waste of bullets.

If it isn't as effective as one, why bother?

 

Looks cool =/= good functionality.

 

Hell, even holding a gun sideways isn't very effective, as (to quote The Punisher) "They put the sights on the top for a reason".

It's ineffective for almost exclusively the same reason. The second hand is invaluable for balancing the gun.

 

Come to think of it, I bet thats why blind-fire isn't very accurate in the game (one hand firing); especially since the camera can still see around the corner for aiming even if Niko can't.

Duel weilding looks cool but it really only makes sense if you can shoot 2 different targets at the same time. Since that wont happen duel weilding means that you'll be shooting 2 guns at the same person. This is pointless IMO. Especially when theres better guns like Uzi's, AK's, etc. that'll get the job done quicker. Just my opinion tho.

So you're saying that dual wilding pistols in a videogame takes creativity??

 

And that it beats by a long shot all the other creative stuff Rockstar has implemented on GTAIV?!

 

Your level of stupidity is amazing.

I don't think reality is much of an issue in Grand Theft Auto games, let me add. It is a social satire. If it was realistic, there wouldn't be a Desert Eagle. They're pretty much sporting guns, rare, expensive as hell and jam constantly.

Yeah because this one detail, means that SA is more

creative than IV in gun fights.

Never mind all those new fancy physics and graphics engines that IV has.

I dont think its unreasonable to carry 2 weapons. What good does accuracy do if your getting sprayed on by thugs. I'd love to blast away constantly with one gun while I aim carefully withone. sly.gif

holy crap people are simple even thought duel wielding looks super bad ass (not) i don't see why the hell niko would do that i mean he is military trained so he knows how to shoot it worked for cj because he was a stupid bastard now i know what your thinking who the hell does this guy think he is cj was awesome but think back to the last time you played the sa and think of all the stupid sh*t he says

he is military trained

No he's not. It's all speculation. Also, dual wielding sucks and was only awesome in equilibrium.

Its been said in multiple interviews and such that he is a Balkans vet.

No, it has only been said that he was held in prison somewhere in Eastern Europe.

Accept the fact that you are wrong, and move on.

R* has said that there will be no weapon skill upgrading and things of

that nature, because Niko is already fully skilled in a wide variety of weaponry, due

to his training in the army. Fact.

It's Too John Woo as Sam Houser would probably tell you.

@ OP,

We heard they wouldn't be doing that some months back, either way, I peg you as a Menudo fan and happy to see the boy band reunions this year! colgate.gif
