Mapping Los Santos! Building/landmark analysis

[Derr1]

Has anyone been able to locate the Walt Disney Concert Hall yet? I Hope this is in the game.

Los Santos, only Los Santos map will be bigger than Los Angeles map from Midnight Club LA?

Can someone answer me if there is any evidence of Tar Pits being in game?

 

I asked 2 pages of spam earlier with no response.

No idea yet bro from what we've seen so far. I hope they're in here aswell. Bloody spammers and trolls..

Are you trolling??

 

It's massively bigger, but obviously, so I know you're kidding.

I think it's a little big bigger, considering it includes the ghetto, LAX, the port and east LA, though the lack of the San Fernando Valley might make a difference.

 

Compare it to L.A. Rush:

Really hope for them... It was fun to drive a truck into it in LA Noire

Last time I visited this topic there was 1001 pages so I'm not going to go through 82 pages just to get an answer, so have you guys had any luck with placing North Yankt yet?

I'm pretty sure it's not an actual location in the game

Every postcard they've shown so far has been a location in the game so I don't think there is anything which indicates that North Yankt won't be one too.

L.A Rush map is so bigger compared to Los Santos city. Look at the freeways, los Santos freeways seems too "shorts" compared to the Rush ones.

I still think there's an island in the north west somewhere.

You're 100% right about a island being somewhere, I bet you a million bucks and its a medium island

Should be talking about all those TONS of locations from the infomercials that have been online from tinypic. There is SO many new locations.....

Agree with this. With that, we have a lot of work to do here.

Because that DID happen in 2012 with previous leaks.

Can you give me more info on that? Thanks.

From what I've seen (and I have seen the things I can't talk about) the scaling is actually better. There's no wasted space, no dead spots. While the freeways may be shorter, they are scaled better with what seems like appropriate signage and scenery so that you won't even notice how short they are.

[Backfire6]

If we can't talk about the new locations that have been spotted....then this entire thread should be closed. You guys can't work on mapping it if you can't grab those images and use them here. Or even talk about them....

Yea I've always wondered why LA Rush has those big empty areas on the map instead of placing it all together. I guess they wanted to make it feel bigger.

The leaked videos showed some good shots of freeways in Los Santos and they look amazing ( I really wish I could post a pic)

Official images can continue to be used. We'll just have to wait until more are released.

It's like it made any difference just because they're leaks. Come on

We cant discuss leaks here because the forum respects Rockstars wishes. Rockstar told us not to discuss leaks here and to remove them. Posting screencaps of leaks and discussing what is in the leaked videos goes against what Rockstar asked of us. If you don't like it, you can find another forum or discuss any leaks in PM.

I get it, but what rights does Rockstar have over this page? It doesn't belong to them, and thus they shouldn't have any power over it. PLUS those leaks were entirely their fault. Spoilers are a problem, but that's what the Spoiler section was for - before it was deleted.

 

Everyone is turning into such a pussy. Leaks happen, get over it.

The leaks are Rockstars property. Rockstar can do what they want with their property. What if a video of you was on the internet and you were extremely embarrassed about it? Would you just sit there? No, you would want the video of you taken down immediately.
