Since it's snowing in Los Santos, I thought it'd be cool to show you guys this: The UCLA campus during an extremely rare snowfall in 1932.

No doubt, North Yankton is just a place on the map.

<snip>

So yes, it's surely on the map because Weasel news talks about the North Yankton in the Blaine country area.

I call bullsh*t.

That may be some safety bars upholding the structure between two different lanes on the highway. The lane on the right may be heading north while the lane on the left may be heading south. I know trains/subway has been confirmed, so it might actually be train tracks, but don't they look a little narrow? Too narrow to fit a train?

Just a quick question to mappers, if you're so much against the leaks then why did you use the leaked map shape from the achievement list?

OR: you drive straight into it with a big truck and kill everyone smile.gif

 

But, just thinking, we see this tents and we've seen the screen with the car with baggs on it's roof. Can we go camping with a tent? We've already seen caravans and campers, so...

Ow, and we also see the hitchhikers from trailer one with what looks to be some kind of camping gear

You don't have to type all that fa**ot..... That's way to much spoiler for some people, fa**ot

Another shining example of a post that stays up, despite the use of sexually derogatory words, outright rudeness, and meanspirited attitude. Have seen dozens of them just today, but hey, at least there were no 'spoilers' involved.

Sexually derogatory? I thought he was talking about harley riders. And the post before him was being a bitchstick by posting big spoilers that had nothing to do with mapping.

Nice koeklin !

I had been looking for this one but couldn't find it.

 

By the way, I think I found the building in the new Khamelion screenshot (behind the red car)

Could be the Wiltern Theater on Wilshire Boulevard ? (eastern side of the building)

i did recall seeing what looked like the wiltern in a shot of Los santos, but it was too far away to get a good look, but i wouldn't be surprised if it was there, and my suspicions seem to have been confirmed.

Hi guys! I know im late to the party, it really is impressive all the work you guys have put in to this topic! One strange thing i've noticed is that fire stations seem to be non existant. Has anyone seen any indication at all that there will even be a fire department in this game? I would assume there would be, as every GTA in the past had one. It just seems strange that in all we have seen of the game so far, not one person has mentioned seeing a station/truck/firefighter.

Does anyone else get that satisfying feeling when a landmark is identified?

Oh yes.

Just about to post another one in a few minutes.
