Nigoldeneye Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 I don't like the wackiness of all of that,it's exactly what Saints Row The Third did. Rockstar should pay homage to classic L.A movies like Menace II Society,Heat,Speed,To Live And Die In L.A,Die Hard,Point Break,Reservoir Dogs. I also would absolutely LOVE if they had a Night At The Roxbury style scene at a nightclub in a cutscene,and two guys that look like Steve Butabi and Doug Butabi are trying to get in.

Bantri Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Biggest question... why would they need DLC to do extra stuff? They can't just include it into the game to unlock after you beat the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOAXi Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Just... please... no! It will ruin the whole GTA feeling to the serie overall. Even all the good memories of GTA from the past will be struggling to pop up correctly. This tradition is completely lame, or at leased those spin-off zombie dlc's are for games without continous storyline(s) like GTA. Luckily, it won't happen. R* ain't fools.

BlackNoise Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 I don't think those ideas have to be wacky. People are so quick to cry "Saints Row!", but Saints Row is supposed to be goofy. It's not like R* would let Volition develop DLC for them. I trust R*, so I really don't give a f*ck what they make for DLC. I'm guessing it will be something strange, because it's probably more fun for them to develop weird sh*t for their serious world. Nobody is paying them to make episodes, so why shouldn't they have fun since DLC is extra anyways? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry, but it sounds like a load of bullsh*t to me. I'm not interested in seeing aliens and superheroes in GTA. It is just as bad ass suggesting that other stupid zombie idea that keeps rearing its ugly head every now and then on this site. Like someone on here earlier said, any DLC for GTA V and GTA in general should stick to themes that are actually to do with GTA like what we saw in EFLC.

This. As part of the whole storyline(s) in the GTA serie. If it's a spin-off-dlc, then a storyline of some human character that fits with any of the GTA universes is the best. Alien invation in GTA? Thats ridiculous. EDIT: Refering to your title of this topic, inspirations from great movies, crime-like movies, I'm up for. Just like it has been inspired before by Scarface, Miami Vice and so on.

saintsrow Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Rockstar should pay homage to classic L.A movies like Menace II Society,Heat,Speed,To Live And Die In L.A,Die Hard,Point Break,Reservoir Dogs. I would only go for extensions of the GTA culture and concept, no supernatural or science fiction, if it's going to be called GTAV DLC. The movies you mention are the general idea I would like. On the other hand, Rockstar has created some fantastic HD virtual worlds and I can see why people would like to play out their favorite movie role in these worlds. More power to them - just don't call it GTA. In one of the many zombie threads on this forum, I suggested that they could create a (non-GTA) DLC stand-alone game in the HD Los Santos world, based on Omega Man / I Am Legend, which is a more plausible scenario than raising the undead. And here's another idea for reuse of all of the Rockstar HD virtual world design - use Liberty City, Los Santos, LA Noire 1940's LA, RDR and Sao Paulo -- Rockstar can make a standalone game based loosely on Slaughterhouse Five, where the protag is "unstuck in time" and bounces around among different worlds and different time frames for whatever reason - I forget what the point of that movie was, other than being a vehicle for some Vonnegut cynicism. But it would enable Rockstar to cash in on these designs one more time, and a great chance for redux, for all the fans to visit their favorite places again in a new context.

Shade04rek Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 (edited) Noo I dont like aliens & def not superheroes. Im not for a zombie dlc in GTA either, not like undead nightmare ( even though it was completely fine with me on RDR). BUT, I think a zombie cheat unlock would be alright, not big or anything, it just spawns zombies randomly that attacks & turns fleeing people like in undead nightmare, strictly freeroam & maybe online mode, it starts to sound fun then.. Definitely no kind of storymode dlc though! seriously. I would totally take Episodes from Los Santos before any of that crap.

Algonquin Assassin Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 (edited) I'd like a homage paid to Training Day. I know a lot of people don't like the idea of being a cop, but the type of story Training Day was I think something similar would work in GTA. Imagine being a rookie cop and your partner (just like Alonzo) is in debt to some kind of mafia or cartel and the further you go to try and be a good cop he drags you in LS' criminal underworld. Even though GTA essential shows it anyway I think it would be interesting to see it from the eyes of a cop trying to do the right thing, but gets forced to go against everything he believes in. I could imagine it starting out like LA Noire, but the deeper it goes his partner starts dragging him into the ghetto and basicalky controls him like a puppet.
