fgcarva1 Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 I was thinking of this just now. I don't usually play TBOGT because of the weapons. I personally don't like the explosive snipers/AA-12s, (although the stickie bombs are awesome) and I know a lot of people really hate those weapons as well (except for the 13 year olds who always ride in the Buzzards) I would like to know what the GTAF community would want to see military and "over the top" weapons in V or just the regular Pistols, SMGs and Assault Rifles. Also, I know there is already a GTA V Weapons topic and a Wishlist, but I could not find any posts that relate to this so I decided to create this poll because I haven't found anything like it on GTAF.

paul Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 To some extend, yes. I'd like to see over the top stuff but realistically introduced to the player. In TBoGT, you get an AA-12 from a bunch of small time drug dealers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jay Murdoch Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 I really hope that there's more military weapons. It'll make things more badass for a GTA game. It would also make things more exciting and hard online with stronger and more dangerous weapons online. I know some people might disagree, but this is just my opinion and thoughts.

trantula_77 Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 So I'm sure the realism savonts would hate the idea of having 'over the top' things like Saints Row, but nearly all of the things in SR exist in real life, we've just been given access to them. That has been my favorite part of GTA games is that even when the story is done, I can find things to play around with in the world...generally they are the crazy over the top things that I can't do in real life. I want a video game world to let me do things I can't already. I don't need some crazy in game TV (I have FoxNews), I don't want to bowl in a game (I can do it in real life). I do want to be able to steal an undercover cop car and sneak into an airport and hijack a plane that I can fly around in until I decide to jump out of it onto a military base and launch some rockets at a passing car only to be chased by the police and eventually killed only to respawn right where I began (I could do everything in real life, except the respawn part). I want R* to include this stuff like we had in TBoGT and San Andreas because the production values in GTA are so high. The physics work, the cops are smart, the animations are genuine. I think SR is a more enjoyable sandbox but the graphics are terrible and the physics suck. GTA-next can have an excellent story, but I want stuff to do after the 20 hrs are up.

WhistleBlower Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 To a certain extent. I mean, I'd like to see stuff like powerful rifles, grenade launchers (the kind that was used in movies like Inception) and even the gatling gun from Vice City making a return to the series. You know, the kind of stuff that would knock a person back a dozen feet or blow off limbs. But what I don't want to see is stuff like laser guns or anything stupid out of games like Halo because that's simply too unrealistic for GTA.

GTA_stu Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 I voted "stick to regular weapons like AK etc". All I want is the same weapons we had in IV, but some more variety so for example maybe 3 or 4 different pistols. I'd like customisation as well, but nothing too over the top like laser sights or ACOG scopes. Basically I just don't want it to get to the point where it's like COD guns. We're criminals, so we don't need top grade military sh*t. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sonnyBlack Posted June 25, 2011 Share Posted June 25, 2011 I'd certainly like to see more military/over the top weapons in V. I had a lot of fun with the ones in TBOGT and I always had fun with them in the past GTAs too. I don't want less from the series, so I'd hate to see it just stick with the basics and only have common weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flotwig Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 I like blowing sh*t up as much as the next guy, but realism is not bad either. I enjoyed how San Andreas and Saints Row 2 had stuff like the minigun and flamethrowers. GTA IV, on the other hand, somehow managed to create a fun game without insane weapons. Laser guns and stuff like that, however, are not going to be in a GTA game, ever. GTA is not a member of the grizzled space marine in the year 2030 genre, nor will it ever be.

Finn 7 five 11 Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 You guys arent concerned about it getting a little to WHACKY like Saints Row 3? I don't recall it being a rule on the forum to hate Saints Row. Apparently it is, what is wrong with some wackiness? It is like having fun is out of the question, i enjoy driving around in a tank in TBOGT that was pretty fun and it was wacky, but it was fun, that's the point isn't it? SR is very over-the-top Wacky, GTA needs some wackiness injected again, maybe not to that extreme though, some cool weapons, and some massive ass tanks that ram everything out of the way would add some fun to the game, but it wouldn't make it Saints Row.

JTbrokerbridge Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 i want to see more over the top weapons, and i think we will. i believe they realised this is what the fans wanted after IV hence why we saw the parachute, the tank( ok it was'nt great but its a step foward) and the new weapons return in TBOGT. i just hope they introduce them realistically.

We're criminals, so we don't need top grade military sh*t. I agree. The weapons in IV were perfectly fine to me, couldn't have asked for more, although I wouldn't mind some more variety and customization as you said. I don't think I'd even mind COD-style scopes, laser sights and silencers as attachments to your guns, or maybe even a riot shield (and definitely a police baton melee weapon). It would all fit very well in the IV world imo. Sadly, the new fancy over-the-top weapons in TLAD and TBOGT added nothing to me after trying them out for a couple of hours or so. It got old really fast. In my opinion, the run'n'gun and blow 'em up aspects of sandbox is last gen. This new gen it's all about physics and responsive AI and how you can affect your surroundings in order to make your own fun. Guns are out, physics is in.

deathil93 Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 They should introduce military styled weapons but in a realistic way, like you won't get tanks chasing you, but you can steal one from a local military base (San Andreas National Guard style stuff lol) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kwandilibro Posted June 26, 2011 Share Posted June 26, 2011 I'd like to have some cheats for nice explosive army guns, but honestly, I'd rather have a wider selection of standard/street guns. Nothing like TBoGT, where everything explodes, though a few explosive guns aren't that bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ended up creating this post and never shared my own opinion. Well, I really disliked the TBOGT weapons, like the explosive AA-12s and etc. The weapons were alright in missions but I don't think R* should put the explosives in, it's just a waste. I play a lot of MP games and all I see in TBOGT are 13 year old kids who sit back and snipe you with the explosive sniper, spray with AA-12s or hold down A and X(X and Square) while flying with the Buzzards. I think R* should include over the top things to a certain extent, but you don't usually see Mr. Corner Street drug dealer or a bodyguard using explosives and flying Military choppers, it's too much. If the storyline follows "realistic" aspects, I don't see why the weapons have to be over the top/military heatseeking missiles and F-16s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vertical limit Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Sa's Hydra flares were an awesome feature. The heat seeking missle is great but it shouldn't have had te ability to free fire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anasterian Posted June 27, 2011 Share Posted June 27, 2011 Yes, but i wouldnt want to get a minigun from a smalltime drug dealer for no reason during a mission etc. And i'd love to play around with a: Minigun Flamethrower Katana More melee weapons in general So yeah, swords, axes, miniguns, flamethrowers, smoke grenades, crowbars, pipes, anything goes. TONS of weapons and i will be happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
