ahole Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 i really liked gta iv cover system but yesterday i saw a video on a game called 8 days, i would like the cover system to be like this for the next gta. as you can see its much faster and smoother than gta. sorry for bad spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
visionist Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 The game was cancelled perhaps because such smooth transitions are not possible even on PS3. GTA is a huge world and the cover system will improve steadily but such smoothness will take a while to materialize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little William Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 That cover system absolutely rocks! I say R* should buy that system (since the game is cancelled anyway) and use it on the next GTA. It would absolutely blow our minds. f*cking cool, mate!

Samcro Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 The cover system in IV is a little clumsy sometimes but it'll get better. I doubt we'll see true smoothness for a while. Honestly, I just wish for the next game I could get the stealth back like in SA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foohy Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 The game was cancelled perhaps because such smooth transitions are not possible even on PS3. What? There are gameplay vids on youtube and it looked pretty possible to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, I just wish for the next game I could get the stealth back like in SA. yes i would really like to get the stealth moves back to. like if you go up behind an enemy you would break their necks or something, with a knife you would do like in sa, and then they could add like a rope or what its called(no good english) and you would strangle them. here is another video of the cover system if they would do something similair in next gta, the action would be mind blowing:) Edited September 24, 2009 by ahole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akavari Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 are you serious that game was a long cinematic with a fake HUD painted over it to look like a real game...theres no way a teaser trailer of gameplay would be that smooth and polished looking. I guarantee they cooked it up so people would be more attracted to the PS3. but anyways the GTA4 cover system was a good idea but was a bit clumsy, they should just tweak it so it only applies to big objects like cars and buildings so you dont hit the cover button and fly in the opposite direction. They also need to make moving around in cover a lot faster and responsive, considering that you are pretty much constantly surrounded by enemies and need to change cover rapidly.

WhiteRex Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 it would work I think, not bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Akavari Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 did you see the other video i posted? okay i just watched it but that teaser trailer was still 100% bullsh*t compared to that gameplay video. Now the game just looks like some Army of Two crap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lunatic Brandon Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 As long as we see more cover transition I'll be happy but that was amazing. Too bad it was cancelled and I don't own a PS3. The cover system in IV is a little clumsy sometimes but it'll get better. I doubt we'll see true smoothness for a while. Honestly, I just wish for the next game I could get the stealth back like in SA. Some stealth tactics could have worked great in GTA IV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little William Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Regardless of which console that game is made for, to have such a smooth cover system is amazing. I think R* can learn something from this game, or even buy the rights of that game so it can incorporate the cover system into the next GTA. The cover system in IV is OK, but could be a lot better.

ldee Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 (edited) Apparently it was impossible or too difficult to program something that smooth into gameplay. Edited September 25, 2009 by ldee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samcro Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 The game 8 Days really looked too good to be true but I fell for it when I saw it. The moving in Assassins Creed was great and we all know how bad that game glitched on the last half of the game. Can you imagine how bad 8 Days would have glitched? yes i would really like to get the stealth moves back to. like if you go up behind an enemy you would break their necks or something, with a knife you would do like in sa, and then they could add like a rope or what its called(no good english) and you would strangle them. This could have made a lot of missions funner or offered us additional missions in which to implement these moves. Niko was in the Bosnian war and the best he can do is pull triggers and do sloppy moves with a knife. I guess Niko wasn't in the special forces. The guppy Carl Johnson had more moves!

AnthMUFC-Champs Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 (edited) Amazing game, should of made it, stupid sony! EDIT: Here is the trailer and by the way imagine if gta was like this.

Can you imagine how bad 8 Days would have glitched? how did assassins creed glitch? and when talking about assassins creed i think it could be pretty cool to if gta did the same with walking in public, i mean when you are walking in a crowded area in gta iv, you always "run over" some guy so that they gets mad at you. i think it would be better if you walked like in assassins creed were he gently pusch the people away. like this: starting at 1.43. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iEdkDOIe8YM And when you run than they can fall whatever:P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikt Posted September 27, 2009 Share Posted September 27, 2009 (edited) Better cover/walking/animation system would be sweeeeet! What has to be be imporved on the original IV system: 1: Turning around shouldn't take so long. Niko doesn't make a 360 to turn around, he needs to walk in a small circle. Very costly if in a DM and such. 2: in/out of cover responsiveness/inelligence. When getting into cover fast, Niko someties chooses the wrong side. Also, getting completely out of cover takes time and the lb button makes Niko hop behind another cover 3: Jumping. It should be possible to directly jump over something in cover, like in GoW2. Also, after jumping you should be able to move on directly, and not wait 0.3 seconds before being able to walk again. 4: Cover movement. It's too choppy. Doesn't work nice. Can't discribe it, but i do have the urge to smash my controller through the tv sometimes. Edited September 27, 2009 by ikt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It froze toward the end of the game all the time. I even had to replay missions when the game didn't save correctly. Many people had these problems. It was an awesome game but very buggy. Anyway, in regards to GTA and it having a similar system, that might be cool but I don't want it done in the same vein as AC. Besides, bumping/shoving pedestrians is too fun. This is the fist game to include a cover system. Remember what a big deal crouching was when Vice City screenshots were released? Now we expect it. It'll get better but don't expect anything over the top like 8 Days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
