Gang wars

[scottp97]

Remember the gang wars from sanandreas,Well I was just wandering if people wanted gang wars To be in GTA V

 

 

[QwertyAAA]

Yes; Only if appropriate to the setting and plot.

[IllnessGTA]

yes

[thedamned38]

yeah i likes SA's system that they had in the ghettos of Los Santos how the neighborhoods had the gang's color on the map and you could take it over and you would have to defend your territory

[glebestar]

the gang wars in san andreas were good but the territories to take over were a bit awkward, gtav should have a similar system to saints row, where you take over the whole district rather then a small part of it

I want to manage a gang, have complex wars, and negotiate diplomacy. My GTA: Stuartia thread has a detailed description of my ideas.

 

You should be able to recruit gang members and have a "Treasury" to put money in; this money can be spent buying gang property. And instead of the old Gang Wars, you have "Command Posts" in the territories that you need to take over, ala Star Wars: Battlefront. Once you complete the storyline, you can make and break alliances with everybody, until....

WORLD DOMINATION!!!!!

See, that's the thing: At some point, a game mechanic becomes too elaborate, when the core of the GTA gameplay is striking a balance between different playing experiences - such as with the simulations of piloting, driving, and running around shooting random pedestrians that are now viewed as a holistic genre of sandbox games - because Grand Theft Auto made it a holistic genre. However, adding too many details to the management of a tangential activity shifts the attention from the core - Vice City Stories had the balance about right, but any more emphasis would probably mean less relevance of the storyline. Thus, it's better to simply have a separate game utilizing the mechanic fully, if it seems to be so appropriate and would be popular - as Scarface: Money Power Respect had done. It wasn't a great game, but it made the gameplay revolve entirely around the tactics of gang warfare, etc.

Exactly like SA? A definate no from me.

 

However, I really loved the gang war/management of games like VCS and The Godfather 2. I'd love for them to have a rackets system, where you manage your rackets and relationship with other gangs. Still allows for loads of shootouts, but at the same time for some tactical gameplay.

 

Like which particular rackets to specialise in, recruiting the number of guards for your rackets, as well as the type - legitimate security for the more innocent places, or hardened gun-slingers for the "naughtier" things.

 

I'd also love for it to advance throughout the game - unlike with SA where you fight the same idiots throughout. You can start with crack-houses and sh*tty brothels - advancing to owning drug factories or processing plants and controlling human trafficking rackets at the docks and airport. Hell, at the end maybe you can be up against government-sponsered secret test facilities throughout the city - like Operation Midnight Climax in real life.
