Inked. Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Right, so I've been thinking recently. Its kind of a pain in the ass to get weapons and vehicles in free mode on GTA IV and can be difficult for machinima and well, PC has its disadvantages. So my thought? There could be places around the map, terminals if you will, or whatever of just places where you can pick out the weapons that you'd like. I.E. Gun shops should hold every weapon in the game so you go in, select the ones you want and pce. Now Im not saying have this for deathmatch and team deathmatch and other gamemodes. That just makes the game a run to and defend the gun shop type of tactic. But could be a good way to clean up clutter around the map and possibly even reduce the ability of lag from having so many weapon spawns. If all else fails? Why not an option in the lobby to choose between the 2. Now similarly, we can do this with vehicles. Maybe in parking lots. Now not saying remove the already spawning vehicles, but just an easier way to get certain vehicles. Its a pain in the ass to get specific vehicles so it'd be nice to get ALL of them when needed. Its also a pain to get lots of ammo for weapons so it'd be nice to be able to get them at an easy location too. Anyway, just some random thoughts I had. Opinions? Heard an opp got killed, watch me do my dance. Got a pocket full of bills, watch me do my dance. I just popped a pill, watch me do my dance. Hit that nigga with the steel watch that nigga dance.

Tideowave Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 (edited) I need a bigger map, the city is still too small for me. Maybe they can extend the map to out of space? Edited August 10, 2011 by Girish Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheHePaedo Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 1) Keep all features from single player 2) More than 16 players 3) Build on the PC version lobby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndrefromEstonia Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I think if you have every weapon in the game for sale, it's too boring. Also every car on the street all the time, but thats a different topic. But if you finish the game or do a specific mission, you may get a new weapon, and then also buy ammo for it. But when you lose the weapon when you "die" you wont get the weapon back, only after you have finished the game or something. I want GTA to be more difficult. If you want to do all kinds of machinimas, get A TRAINER. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original Light Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Good Idea. They should also support modding on the console and PC versions. Us modders are tyred of getting Banned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
universetwisters Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 they should just have every outfit unlocked from the begining, but you should be able to unlock weapons that you start/respawn with VIA rank. there should still be gun pickups, you should be able to choose which weapon you start with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skillz7855 Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Free mode just needs more then 16 playyers on consoles at least 32 players That gun location idea would be trouble because a lot people would hold that area up and shott anyone trying to get a gun.

Neo Arcadia Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I'd like to see a system like RDR, where you start off with multiple weapons based on your level and the only real concern is finding ammo boxes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adriaan Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 Good idea on having different free mode options; so like a "Classic" mode can work well that matches IV's freemode, and then one or more other modes. Perhaps when you kill other players you earn money, and then you can use that money to purchase weapons around the city. A third mode which would be cool is if there's a mode similar to that of Red Dead Redemption, whereby you keep spawning with your unlocked weapons - and use ammo pickups around the map to refill.

Jewstinian Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 There should be areas where you can buy guns, yes, if there is a gun store such as Ammu-Nation, However, there could be a few problems. 1. People may mass hack, and hack the gun store, getting a lot of weaponry. 2. People will kill each other inside the gun store, not allowing anyone to buy weaponry. 3. Nobody will leave the stand, and start bothering everyone. However some things could cancel those two out: 1. Some kind of way to prevent hacking, or at least a report button.2. You can't get killed in the gun store. (HOWEVER, someone can abuse this too!) 3. There could be no gun store at all, and just maybe a place where if you step in it, you get a selection of weaponry. Its a pretty tough decision between it, but it seems like a nice idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racecarlock Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I'd rather have a setup of 3 freemodes. 1. Normal cheat free (yeah right) freemode 2. Freemode with cell phone cheats 3. Keys to the city style free mode with cell phone cheats and all the features of simple native trainer. Also available in single player mode.

mr_musica Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 They could assign random buildings as gun spots for different players, so with that, there's no point in having control of the gun shop. Another idea could be to disable re-entering a gun shop for a while after you have already been inside one since this could stop from shooting and getting in there to 'not die' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EternalAgony Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 (edited) Most weapons should be found in EVERY shop. Some weps should be shop exclusive. Really rare and powerful weapons should be spawn based at a super secret location that is hard to get in and out of. EDIT: (Sorry, misread question, this should be for singleplayer). In multiplayer... idk. You should find them somehow. I didn't like RDR because the noobs would use boosting to get to level 50, and auto aim buffalo rifle you.

PublicAnenome Posted August 10, 2011 Share Posted August 10, 2011 I want to rank up in Free Mode, and I don't mind if it takes longer than the usual way. So many epic kills, and all I have to show for them are memories... And I feel that blips should be set to "shooting" by default, and if someone wants to change it they can, Free Mode would be so much more fun if your position wasn't revealed until you started firing. I'd probably never play anything else again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inked. Posted August 11, 2011 Author Share Posted August 11, 2011 The idea is not to make us actually PAY for the weaponry, but to be able to get is in multiple. The concerns about campers inside the gun shop. Sure...but you know there is the option to toggle between that and them spawning on the map. It could give the incentive for players to not turn Free Mode into a Free For All and I dont know...maybe have some fun together? Heard an opp got killed, watch me do my dance. Got a pocket full of bills, watch me do my dance. I just popped a pill, watch me do my dance. Hit that nigga with the steel watch that nigga dance.

CheesyJ Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 I think being able to attain weapons should be a lot easier in the next GTA. I don't know about you, but when I was going to go somewhere with friends and cause havoc, getting weapons could be a pain, especially when you got about one per street. After that, there was the issue of losing all your weapons when you die. You would have to run around and collect them all again, while your friends were a man down. They should make it like in RDR. When you die, you don't lose the weapons that you previously had before death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original Light Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 The multiplayer should also have challenges like in RDR. Every new rank you unlock a new weapon for your loadout, new challenges to earn XP( They should have XP like in RDR), and new vehicles that you can spawn anytime.

tranceking26 Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 OP good ideas, more online players may be supported if they try to reduce lag like you say. What they should do is make xbox live gold free forever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
