Copilot Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 No planes, jets are planes. No tanks. Sorry but I think most of the stuff you listed was useless, sure towing cars was fun for 10 minutes the first time you do it but it was just stupid in the end. They don't want you to change niko too much because he isn't suppose to be a certain person, not a person with a bunch of stuff you can change, only clothes.

haroon2k4 Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 can you customize cars?????????????? you cant but they should have put it in..... they want to make the game realistic so should of put it in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Theft Auto Dude Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 can you customize cars?????????????? you cant but they should have put it in..... they want to make the game realistic so should of put it in Just because something is realistic, doesn't mean it should be in the game. Besides, car customisation really sucked in SA. I didn't use it, and I don't think many other people did either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darrel Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Rockstar are in charge, they thought what they did what best. Its a new game, this isn't some kind of San Andreas remake. When will people ever get over planes? When? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When will people ever get over planes? When? I'm already over it, heli's are also a lot of fun, especially in multiplayer if the other people also have them.

tarquin biscuitbarrel Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 modding cars realistic? there's a story going on... niko has more to occupy his time than getting a penis extension. what do you do with a modded car? park it at your safehouse and let it collect dust? you're pro at stealing cars wtf is the point? i'll tell you what's realistic, stealing an old car and finding the engine stall and the exhaust bang and pump out black smoke. sorry but SA was too big and too pointless, i much prefer IV.

GamerShotgun Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 @GTAPHREAK: Cry me a river.. When will people realize that this is a new, stand-alone episode of the Grand Theft Auto franchise, and not a f*cking sequel to GTA III? If you'd have a little piece of brain in your head, you'd know it's just the base of the on-coming sequels of GTA IV... this game can only get better, and if you can't understand the point of GTA IV, then i really need to tell you: f*ck off...

coom Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 so what do you do after you beat the game sell it? i think all the fun "wacky" things in san andreas kept me playing for months after i beat it and its f*ckin retarded how you cant customize cars that was the best part and the yellow line thing is bullsh*t i want a garage that holds 7 or more cars, no skydiving either which isnt a big prob but get over the fact that its a new game if it is they should have taken the best sh*t that people liked and put it in. one good thing i would have to say is the storyline is incredible and the graphics are great but its 360 and ps3 they should be. but still once you beat the game then what? the wacky sh*t was what separated other games from gta. I almost think i should have rented it, beat it, and returned it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcash Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 Well i gotta say i am alittle bummed about the things that werent put into IV customizing cars was one of the biggest things i was looking forward too in this game but i still think this is a bada$$ game, story line, graphics etc. are killer and hopefully rockstar can find some of the threads like these and get some downloadable sh*t goin so we can have are "wacky sh*t" back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ztothee Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 Now, come's my opinion, I knew you where all waiting for it... you guys need to get the F*** over the stuff that WASN'T put in GTA IV and think of the things that WERE put in GTA IV. If you guys desperatly need to fly a plane or hop in a jetpack to fuel your desires, than fine PUT F****ING GTA SAN ANDREAS IN OMG. Why can't you just have fun with this one, huh? Well W/E, I have many opinions and I like to express them. But ANYWAYS, heres a couple things that really suprised me in this game, *The T.V. in Niko's apartment, that sh*t is funny as hell, and I don't care if you disagree *Better Strip Clubs, i mean WAY better, if you guys havent noticed yet, if you request a Private show there 3 times, on the third time, TWO girls come, woo hoo! Also, after I think Niko gets a little too exited, if you know what i mean, because he stands up, and the girls run and you get beat up by the security gaurds lol. *Cell Phone- THAT sh*t IS JUST COOL, but they totally stole that from Saints Row *Police System- Now that is very, very realistic, I mean they can shoot you in your car and you die, in the earlier ones, the car had to blow up. *Strangers- Aren't the people in Liberty Oh So nice? I got 100 bucks from some wack job just because i walked up to him. *Pay 'N' Spray- Ok, they have improved on this, because in the earlier games, the cops could be right behind you when you go in. Then you come out, and PRESTO no cops, WTF were cops blinded and on crack in the earlier games, i mean seriously folks, they did improve ALOT. *UFO fanatics- I love these guys, there on the Northern Gardens beach in packs explaning the conspiracy's n sh*t, thats awesome to me. *Cars- Some nice additions here, WOW. *Computers- havent used em yet, but probably great, just the idea is awesome *Bars/ drunk- OMG, YES, YES, finally a REALISTIC way to get drunk! I mean Niko actually falls and slips, omg pricless laughter. ONE THING I HAVE TO SAY, 8 Ball, why? Why did rockstar betray us? I thought 8 ball was a bomb car placement thing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sillysax Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 That's the whole f*cking point of GTA. It was always about all those wacky, fun things you could do in the game. Now, this game is just another free roaming, generic game with flashy graphics and sexy physics. Reminds me if "the Getaway" on crack. You guys keep going on and on about "realistic" gameplay and such, as we all know, its so realistic to eat a hot dog to get your life back, but you don't gain any weight or suffer from a heart attack at some point, and so realistic that you jack cars but you can't rob banks or donut shops, so realistic that you have to maintain relationships with your people to get them to do things for you. enough with that crap. If they wanted to make an entirely different game based off of GTA, then they should have called it something else like: Nikos Revenge (based of the hit GTA series - but NOT GTA) GTA created a next step to video games with their open world, living enviroment in which you could do anything you wanted. I greatly enjoyed GTA III, VC and SA. Sadly, GTA IV is a rather dull, albeit pretty game that lacks the luster as the previous games in this franchise.

nicotin3 Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 Parachutes and base jumping, would be fun in MP with all the buildings in LC. The night club (no not the dancing) good place to get drunk, meet friends/dates and such, fun place. Silenced handgun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you guys get so pissed about there not being planes. There was only planes in 1 of the games, 1 game out of all the GTA series and now they don't include it and its some big deal. How is stealing a huge jet and flying it around by yourself realistic at all? How is stealing a car anywhere close to robbing a bank. Why the f*ck would you get a heartattack from eating hotdogs. You obviously aren't very far in the game is you think its lackluster and dull. If you really hate it also why the f*ck are you still posting on this forum.

Algonquin Assassin Posted May 3, 2008 Share Posted May 3, 2008 There is nothing from SA, that isn't in GTA IV that I miss. Also while the game is meant to be more realistic, it's certainly not meant to be entirely realistic. Of course some parts will still be unrealistic to an extent. It's not a life simulator.

And compelling characters, and funny in-jokes and jibes at the real world, and a physics engine used in very few games that allows for a more realistic experience, and a good storyline, etc... Honestly, the way some people would have it, the biggest thing taken out of GTA IV was fun itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
