Humanman Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Ive always wondered why Rockstar never put speedometers in GTA games. I think it would be a cool easy thing to put in GTA IV and havent heard about it in anything ive read. Just a numbered speedometer in the corner while driving.. not to hard to stick in there. Have any of you heard anything about this? Im gussing not... Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/329913-speedometer-in-gta-iv/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobbyjoe445 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 why are people so negative about a speedo I would totally want to know how fast my infernus is going down a crowded liberty city street how fast I hit that last ped so when your playing with friends and you do something awesome you dont have to say I hit that guy doing LIKE 80!! but can say I DID hit that guy doing 80!!! Like all games things like that have a toggle in the menu so us who like it can have it and those who dont want the thumb size "clutter" can turn it off Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/329913-speedometer-in-gta-iv/#findComment-1057877682 Share on other sites More sharing options...
EpicFailGuy Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 why are people so negative about a speedo Because no one likes extra things being added to make a great game better. It's "pointless" and if you want it then "play some other game".

K^2 Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 It would be nice to have a speedometer on the HUD, but if there is a virtual dashboard with first person view, that'd be good enough for me. That's probably how I'll end up driving anyways. Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/329913-speedometer-in-gta-iv/#findComment-1057878050 Share on other sites More sharing options...
fitbikesbmx Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Why are all of you such dickwads about this concept? At least make it optional... This isn't need for speed, well then take out all the fast cars then, because this is not a racing game. Take out motorcycles, this isn't a motorcycle racing game. Take out helicopters, this isn't a flying game. You guys are right, this is Grand Theft Auto, it has a little bit of everything, so if you don't at least think it COULD be added to the game, you are a f*cking jackass.
