safcftm33 Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 From the OXM review... Orbs "Weve promised not to reveal gtas colectibales, but we will say they nod to crackdown in that most crucial respect - you can hear them when thier close. They also fit perfectly in a modern day city, and are far more satisfying to collect as a result." I wonder what this could be? any thoughts?

Shoop Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 It would be much more fun than usual if it is pidgeons because they'd move about, and there would be no specific location to find them. I wonder if you could shoot at them for an easier collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gog Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Source that its pidgeons? It was in one of the magazines (either EGM or Game Informer). The magazine got to play the game & the guy said he shot a pigeon & it said "1 out of 100" (I forget the exact number) & the Rockstar guy said, "Uh, you weren't supposed to find that yet." Edit: I just remembered, it said "Flying Rats shot 1 out of 100" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AK47-Mentalman Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 pidgeons lol its been confirmed No, that is a mini game. I think maybe CD's Saints Row like, or Mobile phones, or something modern like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if you could shoot at them for an easier collection. If they indeed are pigeons, I think that is how you do collect them. It would be a shame if that was the only way to collect them. I can just imagine Niko running around slouched to the ground with his hands cupped in front of him trying to grab a pidgeon promptly hoping away from him. The pidgeon runs into the road and Niko thoughtlessly runs after him and gets hit by a car. Nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've been called Rats with wings & Flying rats for years. Comes with the fact that they're disease ridden, just like rats! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah i figured it was a common saying, i just haven't heard many people saying it lately. We get tons of seagulls and pigeons where i live because it's a seaside town...which means constantly seeing squashed birds everywhere... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LibertyCityCasuals Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 It was in the australian zoo. A guy shot one just to see if he could and it came up on the screen 'one out of 100 flying rats shot' or something like that. Rockstar developer said to him that he wasnt meant to find that lol.

Shoop Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 Source that its pidgeons? Why do people like you always need a 'source'? Bloody annoys me. Well you've got to understand, a lot of people make things up on these forums. We've heard just about everything, from bigfoot to faked videos of people getting the disk early etc. A source would be nice to be sure On a side note, a lot of these emoticons don't really represent emotions.

Pidgeons have nothing to do with Crackdown so how could it be "A nod from Crackdown"? That implys they have copied something in a form of a tribute. The flying rats will be one of the collectibles but GTA has many different collectibles. Off the top of my head i can remember packages/tags/Photo ops/Horse shoes/Oysters etc.. i'm sure there are loads i've forgot point is Pidgeons have no connection with Crackdown other then they can sit on rooftops...

Shoop Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 In attempt to clear this up, I think they mean that the orbs make a sound when you're close by. In crackdown there was a high pitched humming sound when you got close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ph3L1z14n0 Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 It sure as hell is gonna be story related: GTA III: White packages, contained the money from the bank robbery, which was stashed in different parts of the city. GTA Vice City: Green parrots, contained the cocaine that was busted by Ricardo Diaz from Tommy. GTA San Andreas: Now i didn't like these ones so much because they were just "mario collectibles", no different than coins or any other crap like that, although the graffitis were awesome.

In crackdown there was a high pitched humming sound when you got close. Well, except that the sound is going to be pigeon's cooing. When we hear it, we will turn and try to find them and shoot them. It'll be a fun in-game hobby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RONIN1191 Posted April 14, 2008 Share Posted April 14, 2008 If they're pigeons then we should be able to shoot them, right? Or maybe throw a grenade in their general vicinity to ensure the kill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 'Nod' from Crackdown you are getting an erection over is that you can "you can hear them when they are close." Okay? Again you seem somewhat retarded....Pidgeons fly around right? So by that lodgic they would not be in a stationairy position such as a hidden package or other collectible would. So that would mean that technically the pidgeon would be in one place all the time and when you killed it it would never appear again. Because if it was just kill any old 100 pidgeons you could just kill all the pidgeons on the screen then drive off and come back and kill the re-spawned pidgeons and that would take about 1hr max to get all 100. So again i think your wrong and think the pidgeons is just a side thing like the horse shoes or oysters from SA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
