I really don't know why some people have such a hard tike understanding the multiple protagonists. There will be some missions you can only do as Trevor, some you can only do as Michael, an some you can only do as Frank. Some missions will have a combination of two protags and some will have all 3. And when you are off missions you can play as whoever you want. Is that too hard to understand?

The confusion in this thread lies in the story progression, not the switches in general.

 

From how I understood it, I'm guessing you can play missions for a single character, but then they would have to stop getting missions and you'd have to switch off to another character. I'm thinking it would work like story arcs. Complete the story arcs for all three characters that is "supposed" to happen at the same time, then proceed to the next arc to progress in the story.

Did somebody seriously ask about CJ being in the game? And GI answered, even if it was stated in that magazine that CJ wouldn't be in GTA V?

Well that's a bust. They didn't answer the most important question of them all: my question about whether or not there will be realistic steak in the game. tounge.gif

Hmmm, IGN says Downtown is as big as Liberty City, GI says its smaller... Oh who to trust; The fa**ot f*cks that never get anything right because they dont care about anything but COD and that twist words to get page hits (IGN)? or the people who actually have a passion for gaming (GI)? Oh, it's such a hard decision to make!

Is that what GI said?

 

What I gathered from it was: LS is bigger than LC as a whole (make sense LA is bigger than NYC), LC's Downtown area is larger than LS's Downtown area (which also make sense).

IGN said the Just the City part of Los Santos was as large as Liberty city. Gameinformer says that Just the city part of Los Santos is Smaller than Liberty city.

 

ign exaggerates everything and gets peoples hopes up, I never trust what they say.

I wonder if Trevor can walk around Micheal's house and interact with his family? wow.gif

Yes that would be awesome. But i think he can at least just enter his house. I certainly hope all those buildings that are enterable for one protagonist, is open for all of them.

It won't made sense that a character could just enter the other's houses (unless invited). But it will be interesting to see the reactions of Michael's stiff wife to him hanging out with Trevor.

Michael entering Trevors trailer would be kind a epic lol.gif

Downtown area of LS is smaller than Liberty City - now THIS is just ridiculous...first they say the whole city of Los Santos is around the size of the whole LC! now they say LS Downtown is even SMALLER than LC! WTF? confused.gif what's next? we'll find out that LS's downtown's actual size is the size of the tin can?... turn.gif ridiculous...simply ridiculous...i understand there're lots of countryside and deserts, which are obviously much bigger than urban areas of the map, but gimme a break...just not THAT small! i would be fine if Los Santos city was the same size as Liberty City map, but smaller than that? ...pfftt...i hope that countryside and deserts f*king worth it, otherwise i'd blame its inclusion as a reason why we got such a small downtown part...

Anyone check their local GameStop to see if the mag is in yet?

They don't open until 10:30 around here, which is in an hour and a half.

 

I'll be checking in today, again, as I really want a physical copy of that damn magazine. catspider.gif

You do realise downtown is just a district? In my opinion downtown Liberty city is everything south of Garnet Street, so if they are saying that the downtown area is smaller than the whole of Liberty city than it could still be huge! colgate.gif

Well OF COURSE the downtown (CBD) area of Los Santos Will be smaller that the whole of Liberty City, since, as others have already said - it's just ONE district. And also, I think one of the reasons why someone people think that the LS metro area looks small is because the buildings are generally smaller than the ones in Liberty City..

...i hope you're right...but i find it hard believing anything IGN says anymore, they're just plain unreliable when it comes going into details like that...in their interpretation Downtown could be the whole urbanized part of the map!...earlier GI article told us that Los Santos is bigger the the worlds of RDR, GTAIV and San Andreas combined with a room to spare, later they elaborated that its its actually not Los Santos, but they whole GTAV map, which's quite a difference if you'd ask me...so thats why i'm being skeptical with this particular "downtown smaller than LC..." statement...

Lots of magazines kept making the mistake of calling GTA V's entire map Los Santos, even though not all of it will even take place in Los Santos county.
