How will the game start?

I've been thinking how the game will start. In hoping it starts of at the main character's "Big House" and it's somewhere near the outskirts of the city. You start off with $1000 and 50 rounds with a pistol. You have a car and full access to all city districts. The phone will hopefully be a mimic of the iPhone, like peach phone or something. You get a call from a friend that wants you to do a mission for him. You accept and there's the start of the game. I'll end up exploring the city before I start the missions one way or another. What are your guys' thoughts?

It'll start with a cutscene showing off our great wealth and how rich we are.

 

Then we'll get robbed by a gang somehow, and then the cutscene will end. We will have 0$.

 

Then we'll be asked to get inside of a convienently parked car and drive someone to somewhere.

I don't think the game will start off by giving you ammo and access to the entire city.

I think there will be some type of background story about how the protagonist was a bad guy, moved to Los Santos to forget about his past, but then lost everything due to the economic climate.

 

Also, it may be due to my girlfriends little niece, but when you said Peach Phone, am I the only one who thought of this:

I think will will start off with a cut seen and you are sat in a infernus and he looks dead rich, then the bailiff knocks on your window and he says "sir i need to take your car aswell" and then you notice loads of people taking your stuff of you cos you have went bankrupt. so you go back to doing what he does best. biggrin.gif

I think it'll show the protagonist just arriving in Los Santos and maybe he meets a friend that lives in the city, and shows him around (like tours LS, the beaches, highways, countryside.)

Yes, because the gang will also steal your house and everything in your bank account lol.gif

The gang idea doesn't make sense, but the rest of it is accurate.

 

The game starts off with a big house and lots of money, then soon after you lose it all. It gives the player a purpose to want to make money, so they can buy that house back.

I think the last scene in trailer 1 (with the Shamal) makes part of one of the first scenes in the game, with the protagonist arriving in San Andreas.

I really like where this topic is going. Though i dont have the energy to think of something. Im sure R* makes it worth our while.

 

I like reading other people their ideas on this though.

So you're saying you start out as a rich man, and for some reason you always walk around with all the money you own and get robbed.

IMO it could start with a cutscene:

 

''Why did I move here? Guess it was the weather'' And then we start to know more about the protagonist, is background. How he is going bankrupt and his problems from Liberty City (just naming one) are coming back.

 

Then his cellphone rings, ''Hey bud, it's Paul. Know someone who could help ya'' ''Join me at corner 12th street and 3rd avenue, downtown, gotcha''

 

Cutseen ends, start of the game.

My thoughts are

 

Cutscene:

of the life he had before the money problems at the end bailiffs come round, Outside your house bailiffs putting a for sale sign up and loading your stuff in vans.

 

game start:

 

outside your house with $100 , a gang car pulls up and calls you over knowing what has happened they ask you to help them out with a few things and to earn some money, for a time you sleep in a YMCA.

 

I would like to see you having to buy a phone early on in the game from a shop stocking old Nokia 3310 styles to iPhone styles as you work your way up you buy better phones

 

also going about buying a car in the same way as the phones.

Yes. Then you have to get in your car and drive to him. From there, he'll give you some things to do. Once they're completed, you get money and a list of phone numbers. All which lead to more people that you can do work for. They all lead you into a large chain of events and you find out that there all apart of a gang that they want you to join. Then perhaps you join and they plan our robberies, and such. The jewelry store robbery in the trailer is one of them. You'll get breaks throughout the missions. Then there's one mission near the beginning of the middle of the game. A gang sets your house on fire. You need to steal a fire truck and get to your house before it burns. Then that leads you into Side missions such as fire, police, and EMS. When eventually, you'll unlock things like police weapons, uniforms and outfits, and things like defibulators and such to help you perfect on those side missions. Maybe we'll even see some regular jobs at the end. Maybe he'll get payback on the gang and become a normal, wealthy person again. He can then get jobs.

Love everything you continued except for the part where a gang set you house in fire and you need to steal a firetruck.

 

But overall it is very good and it would be a story that i'd like to play.

The protag arrives in a private jet, gets a tour around the city and then taken back to the luxury new house. He then meets some old friends, helps them out with a few things, etc. Then they plan to rob jewellery stores when the cops get involved and try to track you down. CRASH get involved and take your family in for questioning, you must then do work for CRASH to bribe them away. The work involved gangs in the city and you get caught up in helping rival gangs.

Im picturing the screen starting black and you regain vision when the interragator

tears your hood of and reveals the dirty basement where you are tied to a chair taking a serious beating.

 

You then manage to break free, stab the bad guys and when you exit the basement you find yourself in the middle of the forest outside a small cabin disoriented and with no info what so ever. Minimap not yet available

 

You have nothing but a small pocket knife and all you have to go by is an adress which you heard one of the guys mention a few times inside the cabin basement.

 

The mission objective is no more than: Get to "adress" and save your wife" Still no minimap, only street name and house number. The only thing you know for sure is that its around downtown Los Santos.

 

When you get to this adress you get an awesome cut scene, you make a vital (appears as path changing) choice when presented with a dilemma and BANG - the story jumps back to where it all begun. From this point you play the course of the game that leads to the choice you just made.

 

Then time for the slow, getting to know the game, missions that i personally find vital to establish the "feel"

 

 

Just an idea

I like this idea.. But that wont happen because by the looks of the protagonist (the hispanic guy ) i think we will start very poor in GTA V (just look at his shirt)

What makes you so sure about the protagonist? Pretty sure its the older Ned Luke guy.

Don't start it! He's just a troll.

I'm pretty sure trolls dont stay for 4-5 months or have more than 1000 posts on a forum (like me)

He has a tank top on. That doesn't neccesarily mean he's poor. And I doubt the old guy is the character. He's probably just the head of some gang or group and has something positive to do with the protag.

I don't think it's as simple as the protag being robbed, his financial matters are much deeper. Great thread BTW icon14.gif

I'm sure he arrives in a plane. In fact, I would bet money on it I'm so sure he will.

 

Rockstar always start things relatively low key. I doubt there will be action at the start of the game, at least not in a cutscene.

I actually like that idea i think it would make a change to the other idea being robbed and then getting revenge etc
