Also Brian was 10 when he got whacked or somethin according to it aswell 

That sounds so weird to me. Not just because that's such a young age to die but also because when Emmet sees CJ he mistakes Carl for Brian which makes me assume that Brian can't be much older/younger than CJ. I know Emmet's mental health is supposed to be deteriorating but if he remembers the name Brian surely he wouldn't confuse a 10 year old kid (who, if he died at the age of 10, would be 15 in 1992) with 20 something year old CJ.

Also CJ never saw his dad if Brian was 10 then he won't be a son from the same dad

Being old, Emmet maybe has bad vision. He also probably had no idea that CJ came back to San Andreas. He probably also hadn't seen Brain in a long time..

That’s probably why emmet mistaken CJ as Brian.

As cool as it would have been to see a rendition of Alcatraz Island, I wouldn't have taken Bayside as a casualty for it to make an appearance. Without Bayside on the beta map, the Gant (Golden Gate) Bridge ends up looking a bit awkwardly placed. Like, it's not terrible (as is GTA V's highway system) as it still turns into a northern route that cuts through two small towns and then into Las Venturas. It's just having that third town in-between, located right next to the Gant Bridge, makes it look much more natural.

Yeah, nothing beta about that map AFAIK. It's the fold-out map that comes with the game.

There are a few tiny differences between that map and the current one. For example, the last building in Ganton courts is shaped like a C, but if you go there in the actual game, it is l shaped like the rest of the buildings in the court. Also, I think the SF Airport has a difference somewhere.

I've thought this was odd they included a beta map. this map is different than what appears in-game and on the radar.

 

There seems to be a road that connects Easter Basin Docks to the underground tunnel into SF Airport. There's also a road missing that does around the Yay Factory in Doherty.

 

There's an alley way in Idlewood that's missing. The road simply connects to Grove Street and leads all the way to Verona Beach.

Well here is a comparison between the beta & final.

 

Was the ground much higher?

Good find.

 

I think it was a building roof originally (with a sudden roof drop by the garage), which they later changed to be a road.

Yep, ground were tall as a reserved space, there was no grass.

Probably a mistake by the devs, or either a leftover from the beta version.

No, because if you look at the race beta maps, you can still see the "C" shaped Ganton building and the road leading into the underground part of the Airport.4nSnJ5S.png

There is in game screenshot with C shaped building (the one with CJ, Grove Street members and majestic in the distance). It's the same building as the one a couple blocks away from that place. 

 

SF airport had static planes and afair some less hangars.

 

Also speaking of beta SA talk, I post my analyzes on this beta related discord, if anyone's interested: https://discord.gg/4QXS9V9G

Was this map even used in the pre-release?

What even is it? Whatever it was, it's weird that the developers removed it pretty late in development, as it likely had no significance.

It's a mall, 6th Street Plaza, here's how it looks: https://gta.fandom.com/wiki/6th_Street_Plaza

 

They removed it and changed into another housing project, because as I said the same mall is placed in Willowfield a couple blocks away. 

 

@doomfuldark99No, it's just sits there in game files for the lulz, it's R*'s obvious bait, not really an alpha map.

Oh, yeah, there's a tag there. Kind of looked familiar. 

 

By the way, I really want to see what the Alcatraz Island looked like in the beta. How could we find out?Upp3uGp.jpg

It's a literal grass island. That map is a render, so shows buildings and concrete pretty clear, and there are none on that island. It's clean, grassy terrain, same as seen north of it.

That's an enhanced version of it. It kind of enhanced it weird. In the original version, you can make out a few small buildings, a wall, some docks, and shipping crates?
