GTA 5- what do we really want?

[fireguy109]

My first topic so bear with me, I'm just a noob. I want to know what everyone wants to see in the next GTa game, but let's try to keep from debating San Andreas vs IV, please. Personally, I have 5 main categories.

 

1. Vehicles- customization like a racing game, and the ability to purchase them. They wouldm't disappear if you went out of sight of them, they would stay for 4 in-game hours. We'd want boats, helicopters, and planes. It would be awesome to have dogfights with police and military aircraft.... Vehicles would get bullet holes in them like Mafia 2. Boats could sink if the holes in the hull were big enough.

 

2. Peds- they would be smarter and more diverse. They could actually defend themselves and had to call the cops on a cell phone to alert of a crime, giving you time to exterminate them. Fistfights would be left alone by cops until somebody went down, at which point they would break it up. Some would carry concealed weapons, and a random pattern would determine fighting ability, not "everyone in red kicks ass." Vehicles would be more patient and obey the traffic laws. If you hit them they would pull over. Either you went up to them and paid 50 bucks or they would call the cops, giving you a 2-star. There would be rush hours, street vendors, and people entering buildings to work.

 

3. Public Service- the cops shouldn't run in suicidal unless you enable a cheat. They would take cover and call for backup. You would always have the option of surrender. If you hit them in a car they would stop, and if you didn't stop they would call for backup, staying with their own cars. All wrecks should stay for 2 in-game hours. The paramedics would put dead people in body bags. The firefighters would direct traffic if you wrecked, and put out the fires. You would be able to set a building on fire with an RPG, and relax as they put it out. There would be people picking up trash in the streets, etc.

 

4. Setting and Character- I would want an island location, tropical, with modern and old-fashioned sections of town, 3 major cities and a couple of small towns, and some nearby islands with easter eggs like Just Cause 2. I never liked the limitation on leaving the area, so it could be set in a military state or something and you would be shot at if you tried to leave, like Mercenaries. There would be cruise ships and gambling boats you could swim out to and rob . There would be limited seasons, with a cycling period of tourist traffic vs quiet time and some weather changes. There would be a rule where the character could swim in water twenty feet or deeper, except in cutscenes. You could get a mercenary-type mission set from a crooked general. Wouldn't it be cool to be given a submarine and told to go nuts on an aircraft carrier? The time frame could be in the months after 9/11. This would explain shooting you when you leave the island- panicked military leaders. There would be no real politics involved, no children in the streets, and limited animal usage. There would be stray dogs. In the worse neighborhoods, there would be stray dogs that would attack you. You would fight them off Call of Duty style.

 

5. Realism- this is the most debated concept. I would want a gas tank that could be turned on and off in the options menu. There would be semi-honest jobs, like "bodyguard" or "taxi driver", but they wouldn't interfere with gameplay. The cops could care less about traffic violations except running people off the road, ramming people, and hit and run. The physics would be realistic unless you turned on the Stuntman cheat, in which you could go nuts. Mostly common weapons, wilth a few oddities like a flamethrower and a katana. There would be costumes you could buy and change . You could buy or steal cars, and buy houses or just lie down in a doorway and save. The PC version would have an options file in the program files with realism options.

 

What do you think? Share your opinions, but please don't troll!

You're new here so perhaps you haven't seen the pinned topics but there is a topic specifically for this sort of thing.

 

It's the wishlist topic which you can find here.

 

It's better to keep all of this sort of discussion in one place mate.

Welcome to GTAForums.

 

Max basically hit the nail on the head. We've got a pinned wishlist/ideas topic for this kind of stuff to help reduce clutter and to keep it all in one place. Just go ahead and repost your stuff there.
