Airports.

For the 1000th+ time, a city can have more than 1 airport. What's so hard to understand about that? Also, haven't you ever played SA? There were airstrips to land in the countryside. Hell, there was even a hanger safehouse that let you land and store planes!

 

Just calm down, do you really think R* would pull a "GENIUS" and include only 1 airport in the game? Of course not. This time around, though, I hope there's more than 1 safehouse that has an airstrip/hangar.

I think they're hiding other stuff from us like islands

http://media.rockstargames.com/rockstargam..._1342100433.jpg

 

Look left of the helicopter, it's a bridge. I'm assuming more islands are a definite.

Dayum judging by that shot you can see that the map is probably bigger than we thought

Yep, hopefully it'll be a big map compared to IV!

 

As for airports then I think it's a no-brainer we'll be seeing more than one airport. LAX (LSX) must be in there in some form or other and I'd also assume with an airport that big we'll see large passenger jets (bigger than the Shamal in the trailer). If we have large jets and multiple islands then we could see at least two large airports. There's also a very good chance of a military base if they have one or more fighter jets in the game. NAS North Island located at Naval base Coronado would be a very welcome surprise.

Edit: Oh, thanks Choco Taco. I guess the addition of separate islands isn't a definite then. NAS NI being based in San Diego probably makes it a little unlikely too.

Very curious to see how they are going to hundle this...

 

Vice City had one (public) airport.

 

Maybe the same? One publiv airport?

 

Maybe one public and one or two other publics in small other cities?

 

Maybe one public one millytary and one desert?

Don't worry everyone R* confirmed there is going to more than one airport there is going to be one International airport a lots of minor airstrips

Yes, military base because we've all seen the new jet.

We need Las Venturas. Maybe R* is taking so long because they are creating another island or are close to finishing another one. Maybe two discs on ps3 and when you fly to the other island there could be a loading screen. Idk, it's just what I'm thinking.

3 discs on xbox is 1 disc on PS3 you do know that? so you're saying a 6 disc xbox version?

OT: I think they have San Diego in and San Diego's airport a while away from LS to make planes viable.

They could also just include a carrier a place th jet on it... no need for a military base. I doubt they won't add a military base, though^^

I hope we have one main airport on the outskirts of Los Santos with a few smaller airfields dotted around the rest of the map.

 

If Tijuana and Mexican border is in the game, we could have one nearby there.

 

If there is a small island off the coast to the west, could have another there.

 

Then we could have similar to in San Andreas with a deserted airfield or some military airbase on the edge of map in the desert.

 

Would be cool if there was a huge aircraft carrier in the game that roams around the edge of the map, you can land on this, maybe for some mission?

I'm sure they'll be more than one airport. Personally I find it pointless to have a variety of flyable planes but only one airport. Saints Row 2 and 3 had planes and although flying them was fun, it felt kind of pointless since there was only one airport in the city. San Andreas on the other hand had like 4 different airports if I'm not mistaken. 1 in each of the 3 main cities and 1 in the desert.

There should be at least 3

 

The Los Santos Airport

 

A landing strip in the country side/desert

 

Military airport.

Exactly. that accounts for the military and cropduster planes we have seen. And of course they have to put a small replica of LAX in the game. If there is a re-imagined Catalina lsland, Rockstar could put a landing strip there as well, mirroring real life.

 

Maybe Rockstar could even include ultralights, just for fun. To my mind, that would be a realistic alternative to the never-empty jetpack, and would be a leisurely way to fly over the countryside and city just to soak it all in. Plus, ultralights are really used in the So Cal drug smuggling business.

 

And with the ocean plus very likely one or two big lakes in the countryside, a seaplane would be a natural addition.

It's probably been said on the previous pages already, but Los Santos will not be an island, much like the city it is based on, it's got lots of coast line, and is surrounded by mountains.

 

There are numerous airports in Los Angeles. Four or five 'major' ones, I believe? Plus loads of smaller airstrips and whatnot. Even if only a few of these made it into the smaller Los Santos, there would be plenty of spots to put your airplane down.

2 discs PS3??

 

How much would xbox need then?

 

Thats not gonna happen, if they are smart they would use the harddisk like Skyrim.

 

We also have a hydra... remember, that thing goes superfast and it would be pointless to have it with a small map and 1 Airport... we know nothing about this game!

If there's only one airport I'll have a fit.

Well youre going to have a fit-less future because there wil obviously be more than one airport.

For me it would be stupid to fly a plane from the airport but only being allowed to land the plane at the same airport.

Jump out.

Be a boss and jump out/land on street. Idk about you guys but even in san andreas with three airports ive probably only used them to land maybe ehhhhhh 2 times tounge.gif

the xbox would need about 6 discs, he's aiming too high.

The plane thing is the only thing that makes me doubt it will only be one city. The small planes like the crobduster can be there to fly around the city and countryside and the fighterjet is there because there is an armybase somewhere in the desert.

But the Shamal makes me think. Why is there a private jet? Those planes are for long distances, to go from city to city.

I not going to fly a big plane like that just to fly around in circles above Los Santos and countryside. I will use smaller planes because they're more moverable and more fun.

 

Conclusion: U dont hear me say LV and SF are in the game but there must be another big city far away from Los Santos where you can fly to.

If there's two airports I wonder where the main multiplayer area will be. I just hope there's not suicidal pilots left right and centre, the buzzards were very annoying.
