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? Link to post Share on other sites

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. Link to post Share on other sites

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?

StuntGames 109 Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 (edited) This one is the second alpha/beta map if I'm not mistaken now it has bayside and the alcatraz has been removed, military bases are the same as the first, there is a map similar to this in the driving school.

Rhoda 7,207 Posted March 26 Share Posted March 26 I'm looking at the size of the island intended to be Alcatraz and now that I think about it, it would've looked strange sat so close to land, with or without Bayside. StuntGames 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Ray Carter 151 Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 Anyone know if Emmet was supposed to play a larger role in the beta? The first time I played Nines & AKs, I thought Emmet would offer guns at a discount similar to Phil Cassidy. But, in the final version, it's just a free 9mm spawn. It has it's own radar marker too. On a side note, are there any mods that make Emmet's an official gun shop? DR:BUSTA and StuntGames 2 Link to post Share on other sites

Bayside is probably late addition and late concept, the town is empty and has only boat school as side activity. Link to post Share on other sites

A well known OG old cat from the Seville Boulevard set who supplied weapons to Seville gangsters aswell with other family sets. What always questioned my mind is how the heck did Emmet ever acquire an AK since he was believed to carry crap pieces for fire arms hinted by Big Smoke and Ryder but we never fully see it in the cutscene mission Nines and AK's only a said crate. Emmet having such fire power leads he could have possibly had a bigger role before. Other than what's known about him not much else is known.
