Enjoii 8 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Wow, sounds awesome. Interesting that they've completely changed the mission setup, should give the storyline further re-playability with the requirements for 100%. Link to post Share on other sites
hansssi 0 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Sounds great! But do they mention something about car customisation? Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Pink 12,112 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Sounds great! But do they mention something about car customisation? No, but maybe car customisation will be the big 'suprise' or maybe we'll just be lucky to get some cars with Nitro. Link to post Share on other sites

No, but maybe car customisation will be the big 'suprise' or maybe we'll just be lucky to get some cars with Nitro. Too bad, I must admit that I will be rather disapointed if they do not include car customisation since they seem to "go over the top" with this dlc... Link to post Share on other sites
adamcs 595 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Nothing is mentioned about car customisation. There are four new screenshots, I'll describe them as best as I can: 1. Luis is aiming from a helicopter. Sunset sky, Empire State Building in the background. The weapon looks new to me. I think it's the... Ignore, read here. 2. Luis is standing on a helipad on the yacht, with the Buzzard behind him. He's holding the AA-12. Statue of Happiness can be seen in the background. 3. Luis and Gay Tony are walking towards the entrance of Bahama Mamas. There's a queue outside and two doormen at the entrance with their arms folded. One door is open, one is closed. 4. Luis is standing on the upper level of Maisonette 9, looking down over the club. There's people sitting on chairs, and a few people dancing. It looks a lot quieter than Bahama Mamas. If you remember the shot from the trailer where Luis is shooting, and the Maisonette poster is behind him... that's where he's standing in this screenshot. Maisonette looks exactly like this, except much darker, less yellow and more purple: http://nymag.com/listings/bar/bungalow_8/photo_gallery.html Link to post Share on other sites
Enjoii 8 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 1. Luis is aiming from a helicopter. Sunset sky, Empire State Building in the background. The weapon looks new to me. I think it's the M249, but don't mark my words. Sounds like you could be correct, a few other sources have said that the M249 will be featured in the game. Link to post Share on other sites
adamcs 595 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Actually, ignore that. I'm a gun noob. It looks more like this: http://world.guns.moo/sniper/sn85-e.htm (thanks jelly for helping me to identify it. ) Part of it is hidden behind Luis so it's difficult to tell.

andysniper 1 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Whatever, R* will suprise us in some way! and chances are most people will be disapointed with the surprise in some way, as that seems to be what has happened in the past Link to post Share on other sites

DeLMrcs 0 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Considering that if someone rushes through TBOGT they can probably finish it in about 10 hours, which again is just as long as most singleplayer games that charge a full $60, so complaining about the lack of more missions in useless.

If it has around the same amount of missions as TLAD, you could easily rush through it in under 4 hours (assuming the missions are generally the same length as TLAD). Anyway, roughly 20 missions sounds good to me. It's decent for a DLC episode, and the amount of extra content provides a lot to od. Link to post Share on other sites
DeLMrcs 0 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I suppose, its a shame though we can't get a clear view of the screens, I always wanted to see Maisonette 9. Link to post Share on other sites

TiRANB 0 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Missions around 20? I wish the numbers were higher as I was expecting around 30-40 since this is the last DLC episode! Link to post Share on other sites
SaintJimmy 160 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Wow, this is shaping up quite nicely. Can't wait for the screens to be up. And if the gun is anything like what adamcs predicts it to be, then, well...hell yes. Link to post Share on other sites

urban_legend_18 0 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 i think 20 missions is about right enough to tie up loose ends and do some work for a few other people, and with being able to replay them is a great feature that i wish they added to IV, one of the things i dont know why R* didnt add in sooner considering it was in SR2 and was one of that games best features. i hope soon we will see a better pic of the car based on the Phantom.

Tsar_Smirnoff 5 Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Great stuff man, thanks for posting so early! I'm glad they seem to be making TBOGT more lighthearted than the previous two; to me this feels like traditional GTA(III era games), not to say that I didn't love vanilla IV or TLAD, they were just different. Super Drop Diamond? Never would've come up with that name in a thousand years. I'm sure the Tampa will make it's long awaited debut as well. Link to post Share on other sites
