- "Head popping" wit da m4, deagle, sniper rifle, etc

- Minigun, Chainsaw, dildos, combat shotgun, sawn-off (esp. double +inifinte ammo cheat), satchel charges

- AMMUNATION!!! + hi-larious radio ads

- dual wielding weapons

- Parachute

- Recruiting homies/gang members (even just for the fudge of it - driving around, taking pics, drive bys at cops)

- Gang wars

- Fat & muscle

- larger range of clothing

- Killing drug dealers (for easy $2000)

- BURGLAR side mission - that was my favorite, never got old!

- Ambulance, Firefighter, Taxi, Hunter vigilante, pimping

- Easier handling (i.e. powersliding, turning, motorbike skill etc.)

- The blur effect that you get when driving fast

- Car customization - HYDRAULICS, NITRO, PAINT JOBS, TIRES, etc. (at least let us choose the color of our car at Pay n Spray! I h8 getting ugly colors angry.gif )

- combine harvester, tank, hydra, lawnmower lol.gif , monster truck, shamal, tow truck, buffalo

- Jack Howitzer (Exploder, remember?), Mike Toreno, Ken Rosenberg, Phil Cassidy, The Truth, Woozie, Kent Paul

- The great modern hip-hop station (based on era) - Beat 102.7 is inferior compared to Radio Los Santos (SA), Wildstyle (VC), Fresh 105 (VCS), The Liberty Jam (LCS), even Game Radio (III)

 

And a lot more...

You DO get that if you use the "P" effect.

 

I miss the stealth kills and the silenced gun. Oh! And as pointed before... the good citizen bonus was a blast!

I sure as hell don't miss the gang wars!

i miss all these things aswell, but you must admit, if rockstar hadnt made everything more realistic and prettier they wouldve been condemned for not progressing the series. i think no matter what a games developer does to evolve a series people will say "they shouldve done this" or "kept this". its just how the industry works.

I miss getting the minigun and camping at a pay and spray until eventually the army brings me a tank then spending the next few hours doing vigilante missions. I know it`s not realistic but it was so much damned fun and I reckon it would work even better with the new wanted level radius instead of the star bribes thingy.

 

Also falling of high buildings isn`t as gut wrenching now the camera goes into cinematic mode once it knows your dead. Used to nearly make my bladder let go before, now it`s just ehm.. ok boring.

i miss how in GTA3 you could totally decapitate a perosn, ie. shoot off arms, legs, head and with a rocket launcher explosions u could see their torsos and legs and arms everywhere.

 

they took that off in Vice City and on. its lame as hell when u shoot someone in the leg in Vice City and SA and they dance around like they have no leg but they still do -_-

I miss installing Vice City and San Andreas, then withing minutes playing for faultless hours without having to resort to a bunch of "fixes" to get the game running in an unacceptable manner.

The Parachute, which will be released in the DLC pack biggrin.gif. I also miss flying planes, its a shame we can't do 9/11 on GTA IV with those huge jumbo jets. Its like Rockstar put it there, to piss you off. At first, your like OMG, a plane. I must fly it and do terrorist attacks, but suddenly you realized that the plane cannot be mobilized.

This isn't so much of a "missing feature" but I felt there weren't enough races in GTA 4 (singleplayer that is). If you think about GTA SA they had nearly 30 races in GTA 4 you only get 9. It's a pity they didn't give you a few more races, ho well maybe the next one.

I readed somewhere before the game came out, that you can enter almost every single building. That's even not close to it. I also miss the planes. Rockstar said, if they add planes then the map would be penetrated very easily. I also saw before, that 95% of missions are murdering someone. I agree, everything isn't about killing, or is it?

What else is in the DLC and where did you get this information?

That's true, people will always complain, but things like more weapons, parachute and being able to fly planes would add to the realism more than anything.

 

There are obviously certain things that they had to remove to keep the realism, but for a lot of the things that are "missing" there doesn't seem to be much justification, other than to maybe boost DLC sales confused.gif

 

Was anyone else disappointed with the radio stations? In all previous GTA's (including 1 and 2) I'd sit in a parked car for ages listening to the hilarious chat stations and radio ads, with IV I when I first started playing I cruised the city and checked out the radio stations, but it just wasn't there somehow sad.gif

A properly polished pc version.

 

Better controller support and controller input remapping.

Hitching a cop car with two cops inside with the towtruck, then driving to the top of MtCillaid and hitting the ramp with then. You bail out half way down and watch them plummet to their explosive deaths at the bottom while you just cruise on down with your chute. Never even got a wanted star.

 

Ahhhh, happy days.

 

Haha, never tried that. Another awesome thing is to get into a car with more than 1 or more passengers (or a taxi), drive it towards the sea and then jump right out before it smashes into the water, love that.

Cop cars didnt have 2 cops in them unless you were wanted.

Why would you want to steer with the mouse and the locked camera was one of the negatives of VC and III (but I played SA before them, making them seem inferior). You don't get as much freedom observing the world around you.

Oh yeah, they were great too. cool.gif I wanted to see a revamped Cheetah, based on Ferrari Enzo or F355.

Hope they DO release DLC, even if it isn't as elaborate as 360's Lost & the Damned. Some new weapons, clothes, vehicles and parachutes are enough to satisfy me!

Lowrider garage, parachute, minigun, planes, the old car physics, the countryside, the musics in Vice City.

I really do miss:

 

Parachutes

Planes

Jetpack

R/C missions and vehicles (like driving a R/C car below any guys car to blow him up, or flying with a R/C copter into a building to shoot someone)

I dont miss alot of stuff because i already experienced all that in SA wink.gif .

I like IV the way it is, without miniguns, chainsaws, jetpacks, tanks and all the exagerated nonsense.

I miss:

 

Excellent FPS on even low-end machines,

Car Modding, Intercity Travel, Working Multiplayer (GTA IV's version sucked balls harder than a Dyson vacuum) & Property Purchase.

 

P.S No sign-in bullsh*t
