Enhanced Flight Controls/Cockpit View?

Do you think Rockstar will bother enhancing the controls of flying in V or will they stick to the same as San Andreas?

 

I would love to see a cockpit view while driving those huge Air Liners and it would add alot of realism than having a 3rd person view...

 

And imagine Trevor having a part time job as a Pilot and travelling people across V.

 

If so, would be the greatest game of all time in my opinion.

 

Do you think this is possible and is it worth for Rockstar to add these things in V?

IMO there are two thing needed to improve the players overall flight experience

 

1. Aim reticule

2. BF3 control scheme

 

Aim reticule cuz I like to know where to aim when trying to shoot at something and BF3 controls because they are just better then GTA IV flight controls imo

I think that the lack of a reticul made it better. Helos shouldnt have a reticul, but jets should

I own and often play flight simulators, I also play Birds of Steel.

 

GTA isn't a simulator though. I dont mind the simple controls, I only would like handling to be a little better. Landing in SA was very awkward.

 

& I dont want a cockpit view, but a "bumper-cam" view would be ok, and likely.

I want plane controls to be the same as SA, definitely not like BF3.

What was wrong if BF3 jet controls? Yeah sure, it was a c*nt to get used to but hey, it made it so much more fun when you'd crash a hundred times while taking off.

I agree with my man over here, BF3 controls were way too hard and became a pain to try to master. I would even quit the game just because my jet would somehow turn on me and crash. This happened quite a few times so I ended calling the jets, troll jets.

A cockpit view, if it is option, would be great. The reason why I say optional is because I don't want to be forced to fly planes in a first-person perspective all the time.

 

As for enhancing the flight controls - I imagine they will be tightened up considerably from GTA: San Andreas as GTA V is using a completely different physics engine to what GTA: San Andreas used. It will be very interesting to see how Rockstar have made plane flight work using the RAGE engine.

The controls WILL be updated from San Andreas, no doubt. However, I think we'll likely still see a 3rd person view on the planes.

They MAYBE will... We don't know yet... But, I still agree with you XD.

I definatly think a Cocpit view would be BEAST in GtaV. were you actually see through the window!

Im Thinking the F16s would be awesome to aim in the target and fly high speed with a realistic view ^^.

 

and the big Cargo plane, would bring alot of realism into it by putting a cocpit view, would make it awesome to do takeoffs and landings^^

But also keep the other views!!!

 

and i hope you actually need alot of speed to actually be able to take off. in gtaSA you lifted after 5 meters -.-'

There's a great thread on this somewhere already... but I'm damned if I can find it right now smile.gif

 

EDIT: Gotcha! It's K^2's thread, Aviation, a few proposals. I think this question belongs in there...

Just for there love of god don't make the camera turn with the plane/ make the camera turn the plane or heli ( like jc2) its so bad and ruins using them

 

IV got helis right IMO, except form not being able to do flips. I hope jets are fun to fly but also challenging enough so they are not overused by you average noob.

They did not add cockpit views for gta iv because they claimed it would take to long, same goes with V. However since there will only be a limited number of planes I really hope they decide to add a cockpit view. would be very very nice.

Technically it's possible

I don't think it's worth it

 

BTW: Dan Houser said in one interview (don't know which one) why GTA is a third-person game, not a first person game and that this is on purpose.

I had no issues with the BF3 controls but I've improved over time, flying next to sh*t and doing maneuvers.
