The Wolfman Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Anyone else think it would be cool and realistic to have natural disasters happen in GTA V? Like tornadoes, volcanoes erupting, tsunami's, earthquakes, etc. I think it would be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hobo-Lord Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 in GTA Vice City, the 'excuse' they made to lock the map was a hurricane, don't know if that's what you were looking for. but the aftermath of a hurricane if freaking sweet. there are no active volcano's in Cali. I for one think Snooki's baby is a natural disaster anyways, maybe they can include that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matty Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 'Minor' natural disasters such as freak storms, dustdevils out in the countryside, etc would be pretty cool to see in Grand Theft Auto V and could potentially add a whole lot of variety and detail to the game world as well as the gameplay in general. Of course, in situations where you are locked out of a certain area because of damage caused by a "hurricane" or "earthquake"; it would be awesome if there was visible ground, road and building damage as well as debris scattered around the place that block roads and such. Having major disasters such as the above mentioned (hurricanes, tornado's, tsunami's, earthquakes or volcano eruptions), rendered real time in the game as you are playing, causing damage as they occur would use up an almost ridiculous amount of memory and disk space which would make it pretty much impossible to implement on current-generation hardware. Unless of course if these disasters didn't cause building damage but what would be the point of having them in the game if they don't cause damage to anything? May as well not have in the game at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychotic Mind Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 (edited) I hadn't put much thought into this, but i guess it would be pretty cool. I remember in some of the older GTA"S there were random plane crashes. Plane crashes, storms, lightining striking buildings, terrorist attack, other people commiting rampages, explosions. Extreme rain and snow. Edited June 11, 2012 by Psychotic Mind Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racecarlock Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 It really depends on how you want the disasters to happen. If you want them to happen randomly in gameplay, then the buildings will have to be destroyable or something because otherwise it doesn't look very realistic. The other way this can happen is if it's just a cutscene in the story or if it was worked in there, which is far, far more possible, but at the same time it might freak out people who just got used to the map as it was before the disaster.

Ispintechno Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Random airplane crashes like in San Andreas would be cool. Natural disasters? hrm. I'd want to have an early game save to roam when the city looked nice still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Algonquin Assassin Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 (edited) Natural disaster? Zee's inevitable rant when GTA V comes out. What a sh*t storm that will be. In all serousness I don't expect tornadoes etc. Hopefully there'll be huge gusts of wind during storms. I love the storms in GTA IV and RDR.

mr. Anonymous Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Earthquakes aren't to far from reality. The San Andreas fault is a major fault line throughout California. Wouldn't be surprised to see a fake San Andreas fault in-game making earthquakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

018361 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Yes, i want it to be random too. You can't predict them in real life, why should you be able to in a game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loony979 Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 I find this topic interesting enough to talk about : If there were to put in the tornadoes & Volcanoes (Yellow stone ) just saying & beyond ,the only real reason i think we wont see it ,is that those disasters & Huge . Imagine it in game : a tornado comes tghe graphics starts to lagg quite a bit & same for the other disasters.. So i think the lagg ,the magnitude of it coming in games or even GTA V for that matter will not happen.. as ADMIN said wind gusts & weather in the game & to sik as is ,& i agree 100% LAGG is the factor (FPS DROPS) i think ...

Wjlld Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Geezus! I can't understand how nobody has considered wildfires, they only really mess up parts of California every other year. I could see Wildfires being a reason for restricting access to other 'islands' in GTA 5, even if they aren't seen. Head to far out of the allowed area and you'll encounter lots of smoke and police checkpoint telling you to turn back. Cross the line? 5 star rating, or maybe you'll just encounter a wall of fire.

PowerKracker Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 (edited) Yeah, I think there should be a random chance for a tornado that completely wrecks the city, after which you can't progress in the game and you have to restart it.

Pyrrhic Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I'd love natuarally occurring disasters to appear randomly throughout the game Also love to see a cheat that makes I'll of them happen at once like an apocalypse.

GarrowsKai Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 I've suggested before that a strand of missions centred around an earthquake (akin to the Riot strand in SA) would be cool. I can only see it working in missions though, as you could have the national guard out and looters running around which would add an interesting element to missions. It wouldn't really work in free roam though. However you could have slight tremors, as opposed to a proper full on quake, happen during normal game-play. Just where the ground/screen shakes for 5 seconds and you hear some alarms going off and pedestrians making comments about it. Could happen fairly rarely and wouldn't really make any difference to what you ever you're actually doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spider-Vice Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Yeah, I'd like to have natural disasters in V. It's pretty likely you can have an earthquake, and I do hope Rockstar improves the storms and makes them vary in intensity, now that would be cool. Imagine yourself speeding in the freeway and a tree falls down on top of your car let your hopes and dreams turn into burning fire!
