Ryan Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 It's extremely hard to read when it's purple. I suggest you change it so something a bit more esthetically pleasing and easier on the eyes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niko_Vercetti7 Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 The color gives me a migraine and makes me feel like stabbing both my eyes with some sort of sharp pointy instrument. I really have no idea where that all came from just please change the color it'll be easier to read. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Official General Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 (edited) Let me add a few bits of advice and criticsms on your concept: * No disrespect, but the title, "Tangerine State" sounds a bit silly if you ask me. I know Florida is famous for producing tangerines, but I just can't see that name as suitable sounding name for a GTA game. * The protagonist being of Mexican descent is not a good choice if you ask me. Accurate realism should be applied here especially. Mexican criminal organizations do not have a strong presence in Florida, they are better known for being dominant in the Los Angeles underworld. The protagonist should ideally be of Cuban or Colombian descent - South Florida is home to millions of Cuban and Colombians, and the Cuban and Colombian crime syndicates are generally the dominant players in Florida's cocaine/drug trade. * You should have included Haitian gangs - there are plenty of them in Miami and they have notorious reputations and they are greatly feared. * The initial main storyline and plot needs to be looked at again and re-done. It is not original enough. That drug deal-gone-bad, " its a set-up ! " scenario has been done before in the first Vice City game. Plus, its very predictable and a bit played-out. You need to show more creativity and originality to make people find the story intriguing and interesting from the start. * There is no way you can make the Orlando-based city in your game the largest city in the state. If you are gonna be realistically accurate in your fictional replication of Florida, then follow facts. Miami is Florida's largest metro area in terms of population, not Orlando. That should make Vice City your largest city in the game, population-wise. You need to make more sense here. Other than that, it looks ok, but I do understand its still early days.

Niko_Vercetti7 Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Personally I feel that a GTA portraying the entire great state of Florida is a fantastic idea! It's just so damn beautiful here, aside from the gangs but they usually keep to themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Niko_Vercetti7 Posted November 7, 2010 Share Posted November 7, 2010 Here in Florida we grow oranges not tangerines. We might grow some tangerines but I'm not sure I ain't a farmer even though I speak like one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TenEightyOne Posted November 9, 2010 Share Posted November 9, 2010 I love the fact that the first ten replies were about the colours of the post... this is more like a soft-furnishings forum Regarding the content (as opposed to the sartorial shortcomings) I don't think "Tangerine State" does it for me really. It's probably a localisation issue but I guess the title has to work globally. It just sounds a bit... well... meh. The rest's pretty good though, I could see it working as a proper framework for a game. My only worry is this; the fact that one of the four main data fields for each area is the Drug of Choice leads me to wonder if the focus of the piece is directed sufficiently towards characterisation/locale as much as it should be or if it just attempts to siphon credibility from 'street' knowledge.
