City of Malibu


HOW'S ANNIE?

Recommended Posts

I was thinking. They said that it is a recreated version of modern day southern California. And I highly doubt that there would only be Los Santos. And considering the fact that Malibu is very close to Los Angles there is a really good chance that it could be in the game.

And alot of the real world celebrities do live there- possibly a place for alot of the ingame celebrities to live too?

I'm actually surprised this hasn't come up much before.

What makes you think I'm trolling? This was intended to be a serious topic.

Not trolling. There's some evidence to this claim; it's in the "Mapping LS" thread.

 

Perhaps; when they said "SoCal" I immdiately thought of everywhere around LS.

Alternate topic: Besides Malibu, what other places can we expect to see AROUND LS?

Other than San Diego and Tijuana, there's Ventura, San Bernadino, Calexico, Palm Springs, etc.

I was hoping more for the San Fernando Valley (just north of the Hollywood Hills), which is part of LA and wasn't even touched on in San Andreas or even L.A. Noire (places like Burbank, Universal City, North Hollywood, San Fernando, etc.).

 

 

I hope Malibu is in it as well. Maybe they can just name it "Palisades".

I'm hoping for the San Fernando Valley too. But I'm confident it's likely to be in the game, since this will be a much more accurate depiction of L.A.

Of course Malibu is going to be in GTA V. It's more of a question of whether a coastal town like Newport Beach or Laguna Beach is included.

Could you please explain why you think Malibu will be in the game? I mean, you seem so sure.

Let's hope so. It just wouldn't feel like L.A. without something on the other side of those mountains (or Mulholland Drive for that matter). I'm hoping for Malibu too.

 

The trailer suggests V's map extends as far as Palm Springs, so there will be lots of SoCal destinations.

R* said the game is based on present-day Southern California. Malibu is by far one of the most iconic places in Southern California. Not including it would be asinine.

 

EDIT: Go watch the trailer and pause at 0:30. That's definitely Malibu.

Yeah it probably will be in the game - I don't see any reason why it shouldn't be.

i like your idea, they should include it in V, it would be elite part of the map, and it would be cool to buy properties there

Is it just me or does it seem like we are getting a bit greedy and expecting a lot for a game to extend on GTAIV, which barely had 1 city and surrounded by nothing but ocean... Now we're talking about southern California, mountain ranges and countryside.... I dunno. Starting to feel like I'm stupid to believe its even possible. Although, I guess vice city had a handful of streets, to be followed by a 3 city san Andreas....

The hills in the background on the right edge of the opening shot in the Trailer at 0:08 would seem to be about in the right position to be the hills above Malibu beach. The coast curves around in that direction in real life.

 

Also, back in GTA-SA, R* took some care to model the cliff, street and strand area just north of the Santa Monica Pier based on real life, and as you know, they put a safehouse there in GTA-SA, as the first house in a row of small houses along the strand north of the pier. Those houses are there in real life, and Malibu beach (the restaurants and then the multimillion dollar beach houses) begin just north of that row of houses on the strand. It is a continuous strip of beach from the Muscle Beach to the Santa Monica Pier on up to Malibu, so I hope they will create the row of houses again in higher fidelity and then continue into a (re-imagined and probably shorter) version of Malibu beach. And I hope they put some missions and a nice expensive safehouse in that Malibu area, in GTAV.

 

R* might also have some nice expensive houses sparsely placed on winding roads going through those Malibu hills. That would be spirit of the real life situation and would not require too much building of long rows of houses as are necessary in urban neighborhoods.

It would be pretty cool if it was a seperate island, say, to the southwest of the main map? They could call it 'Vice Island' biggrin.gif
