EXTREME GORE

[Official General]

I don't see what the big deal about lots gore in video games is these days, its old and played now. We have seen many video games with lost of gore since Doom pioneered the stuff back in the 1990s, its nothing new or exciting. Games should only have lots of gore if the theme of the game requires it to be central to it, eg. zombies, monsters, aliens, slash/horror etc.

 

For a game like GTA, excessive gore is not really needed, all we need are realistic depictions of damage done to a human body, inflicted by various guns and weapons within the game as they would do in real-life. Anything more is a bit excessive.

I'd like the level of gore of rdr, a bit improved of course

[StockLoc]

I'd like the blowing off of limbs.

 

Say, the city was being bombarded by artillery and shells were dropping everywhere; I'd like to see the bastards who roam the streets' arms and legs to come off.

 

They deserve it after all those comments they said to me in GTA IV. It's not my fault I bumped into you.

Presuming that old staples such as the chainsaw and the katana will return - it'll be interesting to see how they would be implemented with the Euphoria/Rage system.

 

Would Rockstar allow the player to decapitate a ped? Or would that be too much in terms of ratings?

 

I really hope they both return but I can't see how Rockstar can implement them without causing too much furore.

Eh hem

 

 

 

 

 

As much as i would like to see a lot of Extreme Gore, like shooting people's heads off, etc. No, simply because I don't want to here this guy bitch and then wind up trying to sue R*, so f*ck no.

Your afraid of this loser? Jack Thompson? The disbarred and shamed former lawyer charlatan, he can't do anything but send R* an angry letter.

[TheGodDamnMaster]

I think if they took Red Dead Redemption's gore system a little further, like more detailed exit wounds and possibly a few popped heads, it would be great.

[Ispintechno]

I'm hoping for realistic gore.

 

If you shoot someone with a small caliber pistol, not much blood at all. If saw them in half with a chainsaw, yeah, you are showering in it. If you take off an arm or head with a 50 cal sniper rifle, yeah it's going to look messy alright.

 

I think the contrast between a baseball bat beating with little to no blood, to a well placed hand grenade lobed into a crowded park will make the bigger events seem more spectacular.

 

Last thing I want is cartoonish super villian blood everywhere though. Save that for the comic books.

[HOTMILFDAD]

Jack Thompson can't do sh*t anymore

[Cole Phelps Gta]

I drowned 5 women in tbogt. That was pretty awesome. It took alot of effort getting them into the water. But watching them struggle to get back on shore (knowing they couldn't ) was amazing. After 30 seconds in the water they'd drown and you can see their body floating. It was sick but i enjoyed it. I onestly think the gore level is perfect atm. More gore means more possibilitys for me to do sick sh*t and as much as id like it. I dont think It would be a good thing tbo. I mean id Love to bury someone alive. Etc but it's too much. The game should be fun it's not supposed to be sick !

[Lucky Sevens]

I want to be able to rip bodies apart and hammer them into a pulp.

 

 

 

 

[Evil.Tim]

Well, as much as I'd like to see extremely detailed and realistic gore, I don't think it will happen in GTAV, because it's not really that easy to make. I wouldn't want nothing less than an explosion to tear off a limb or the head, but what I'm really interested in is the damage a body sustains when hit by a car at extreme speed. That can easily tear off limbs and spill guts and brains everywhere, but I think that's taking it too far. I just hope they improve GTAIV's gore. If you look at bodies that you just hit going 200km/h, they'll still be completely intact. Dead, but intact. That's just weird, isn't it?

[acmilano]

It would be OK to go to FO3 level of gore,but unfortunately GTA franchise is more under watch of different censors and they would probably ban every attempt in that direction.

[UberChargedCJ]

this will cause controversy maybe?

[Secura]

I think that GTA definitely needs a more realistic take on gore, if I shoot a guy in the head, not only should he die but he should have a bullet hole in his head where I shot him. Though I do think that they should expand on RDR in some ways for example:

 

 

I'm in a fight with some random mobster and disarm him and take out his knee, he shouldn't just die ! he should crawl away screaming for help also other civilains shouldn't ignore his pain people should come and help him, pick him call an ambulance etc etc...

 

 

This would make fighting in GTA much better because hitting a plastic dummy that doesn't react can take the thrill out of confrontations, if the system was upgraded every gun fight would be different. Another Idea would be that the AI would react in specific ways to specific things, say I shoot a helicopter pilots hand during a fight with the police, he should still struggle to control the chopper and the other NPC's in the chopper should start screaming jumping out of the helicopter, trying to help the pilot or wrestle him for control of the chopper. Just a small thing like shooting the NPC in his hand would cause it to bleed profusely and set other events in motion depending on the severity of the situation. It'd certainly make gore more valuable feature.

 

 

Oh and before I forget if the chopper explodes the people in said helicopter should end up as charred carcasses, bits of red meat or severely injured blown away in a corner or if they're really lucky completely unharmed apart from a few scratches. So yes in short they should definitely up the anti on the gore engine.

hahaha that is so funny but so true this idiot can't do anything

[Mister Pink]

RDR had a "gore" thing going on where if you'd shoot someone in the face, there'd be a bigass hole there.

Similar would be cool.

 

Yeah, something like RDR would be fine by me. It depends on the weapons. Also, Max Payne 3's gore looks great..

 

I just want dirty weapons again like a chainsaw, screwdriver, meat clever etc.

[Gege]

I'd love to be able to go on a tremendous massacre involving massive amount of blood. I actually want so much blood that the protag could swim in it. The potential ability to dissect bodies would also be a huge satisfactory element I think. Like, if you're a ruthless killer -- which is true for every GTA game -- you must have the ability to dispose of the your dead victims. The idea of killing someone and leaving the body there while paramedics arrive is just so boring.

 

I want to be beastly cruel now, I want more freedom! Taking female persons to your apartment without their willing, performing abusive sexual behaviour on them while they're gagged and finally letting their bodies dissolve in a vacant factorial area would be much, much cooler activity in the game.

I've noticed you around here, you're a disturbed individual sir, you cross the line every time.

[dansgas1000]

Only a little bit, not like manhunt 2 though

[Magic_Al]

I think censorship of Manhunt 2 probably frustrated Rockstar greatly and may have ended that series. What's the point of doing gore if the only version that can get a saleable classification has to blur it out? GTA will stay within a 80's Hollywood style of violence (also of sex) because it has to sell big to cover its massive production budget. Just be glad they don't water it down to today's Hollywood standards, where every big-budget production has to be safe enough for a PG-13 rating.

[turkeygoo2]

There used to be a cheat in gta III for more gore and people's arms and legs would come flying off when you shoot them.

[Chukkles]

Meh. I don't want to see a guy's guts after I kill him with a chainsaw. Certainly there has to be a limit, even for R*.

You can't kill a person with a chainsaw and not expect to see some guts.

Hell, you'd be covered head to toe in em.

[Cyper]

No need for extreme gore. Just looks incredibly stupid. Shooting someone's limb of with an M16. Meh.

[Kipland]

Meh, I don't know about EXTREME gears of war type gore, but mabey something similar to the gore in CoD 5's campaign. Shotguns could take off arms, grenades could take of legs, rifles and machine guns could take off heads.

[matajuegos]

I think that since Jack Thompson left the job, R* has more possibilities without getting moaned at because all the controversy will be lesser

[Secura]

The most controversy Mr Jack Thompson can stir up is an angrily written letter to R* that will never see the light of day.

[Durden]

It pisses me off how zombie games get special VIP treatment with Gore. The supposed argument is, "They're not human, they're brain-eating monsters"

 

Bullsh*t! Once a human, always a human! GTA V should have the same gore as zombie games (even though I know it won't).

[Verdant]

I agree with this.

Rockstar Games should take the gore to the next level. In GTA VC and GTA III it was cool how when you aim at there head and fire there head would come off. If they brought that back with today's graphics. It would look amazing..

[bread]

Without a doubt most of us favor gore in the video game. Apparently, it seems that quite a ton of us prefer "hardcore" gore... something like 3guys1hammer gore. I'd imagine beating someone in GTA V with a hammer and crushing their brain and skull with it - that'd be f*cking crazy. No doubt, gore should be at ANY level depending on the action in the video game. I remember in San Andreas you'd kill someone with a chainsaw and none of their body parts would cut off or anything like that.. that should happen in GTA V.
