jamieleng Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 But what if it's just GTA IV with palm trees, in the end? What if Los Santos is this tiny ass city and the countryside is boring, and the side missions and stuff are lame? How are we gonna feel then? You mean how are they gonna feel when next gen comes out and no one gives a sh*t about GTA anymore, I've already lost patience with Rockstar their so far up their own asses you can probably find Satan himself in there with the Houser bros doing yoga and the gay kamasutra. The game has also already been postponed and if your wondering as to how i know this Take-Two last year said they expected about 60% of around $2 Billion from Rockstar which of course would only be possible with GTA, this estimate has since been dropped to about $1.1 Billion and even now they still don't have a concrete date, f*ck Rockstar i cant f*cking wait till next gen. LOL, banned after 5 posts. Gotta be some kind of record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blakeney Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Do you know what, they don't give a toss whether you think their release of info is sparse. To me that just means more surprises when I actually play the game. If you don't like the way they do things, vote with your wallet (like that's going to happen). This. or, go and play an annual release title if you think that the time and money invested in those gives a better product than GTA I thought I was going to get my ear chewed off for that comment. Glad there are some patient people left in the world. When you are young, 2 years seems like forever. The older you get, the faster time goes. Take from that what you will This^ For my day job im a window cleaner, and each customer has their done one a month... each year is just 12 cleans for any given house... having such rotations in your life makes time go crazy speed! My months feel like what a week did when i was a kid! Im personally REALLY enjoying this emotional rollercoaster R* is taking us on all in the name of hype/marketing... beats a few ads here and there.... or a bunch a wankers breaking out in dance in a train station somewhere... while everyonelse walks past thinking "what a bunch of wankers" while being filmed for some phone advert lol.... I was even going to make a post here the otherday saying what an exelent job R* have getting us to this level of hype and actually managing no major or minor leaks!

meson1 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 When you are young, 2 years seems like forever. The older you get, the faster time goes. Take from that what you will. I'm 45. I've been playing games since I got a 48K Sinclair ZX Spectrum back in 1982. Time doesn't necessarily go faster. I find that one just stops fretting and climbing the walls during the wait. Quite simply, you learn to be patient, chill out and find other things to occupy your time. Games are great, but life is too short to just sit there and wait for them. That's why the Great GTA:V Information Drought of 2012 never bothered me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deffpony Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I cant wait for this damn game. I have been playing alot of IV just to hold me over. The wait has been long indeed, but we are pretty much out of the woods. Most of us arent worried about it anymore because we know we will get info soon, just not exactly when. This is much better than the limbo we were in for 9 months where we had no idea what was going on and why there was so much silence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwistedMedia Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 The not knowing is the worst part, when everybody knows that a GTA title is in development, but there hasn't been any official announcements, no screenshots, no logos, no nothing. Thats the hardest part. I'm going to play IV the day before I get GTA V so that I can directly compare the experience of going from one to the other.

JupiterSkies Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 You know what? It's kind of BS how sparse and infrequent the information on this game has been. I know Rockstar's excuse "We're just trying to make the game as good as possible, so it takes awhile." But damnit. It's been 4 and a half years now since GTA IV came out, it took them ONE YEAR to go from releasing the first trailer, to giving us the first info. It's really kind of CRUEL. Here we are, 2 weeks into the new year, and it's been crickets since Christmas. I don't know, maybe it is all about making another great game, and how that takes time.... But I kind of get the sense it's a marketing ploy, to create even more anticipation and bring it to a fever pitch, and that makes me mad. I just get tired of this. Stupid facebook posts about Vice City's 10th anniversary or Max Payne when they know very well what we all really want to hear about. This has just taken entirely too long. And they need to know, sometimes you build up anticipation so much for a game, that you let people down when it comes out. I'm thinking this game took at least 4 years to make, it's been under wraps for so long, it's probably going to just blow my mind and set all sorts of new precedents, right? But what if it's just GTA IV with palm trees, in the end? What if Los Santos is this tiny ass city and the countryside is boring, and the side missions and stuff are lame? How are we gonna feel then? I don't know, Rockstar just needs to treat its fans a little better, I think. Stop depriving us just because you think it will make us more excited and more likely to buy the game. I'm buying the game no matter what. The question is, will it live up to the astronomical expectations that Rockstar has set with their "I can't say too much right now..." approach? I 100% agree with you. It really is getting ridiculous. Atleast give us a screenshot everyweek Damn! "and its been crickets since Christmas" LoL!!!!!!

dinoSAUR230 Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Hahaha Mice and Men Rockstar have got this. They said Spring 2013 right? So I won't mind until we reach Summer 2013. And even then, well what the hell its just a game. PS If you haven't already do yourself a favour and go out and buy sleeping dogs. Surprise of 2012 and man it's really helping the wait.

Fail_At_GTA Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 This is why kids shouldnt be playing mature games. Go play Mario, CoD, or Pokemon games. They have releases every year, even like every month for Mario. Clearly you enjoy games that are the same crap over and over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I<3GTAV Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I can't f*cking wait for this, but I'm being patient. That's what you have to learn to be. It will be here eventually, 3-4 months (It may even be here in less than 3) is not that long. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Valor Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 I'll be ok once I get the game It just really sucks now. I am a GTA addict. I need to hear about GTA V everyday, not once every two months. The way I think about GTA is the way Lenny thinks about tending the rabbits in Of Mice And Men. Whenever I'm in a boring or a sh*tty situation, I say to myself, "George, tell me again, about da GTA V." "Well Lenny, GTA V is going to take place in Los Santos, which is based on LA. You'll be cruising down the freeways, maybe listening to The Doors....and you can go wherevere you want...you can go to southcentral and kick it with the gangbangers, you can go to Rockford Hills and kick it with the rich people, you can go to Blain County and kick it with the rednecks." "George, tell me about da size of da map again." "Well, the map is bigger than GTA IV, San Andreas, AND Red Dead Redemption. Combined." if I had to guess your age, I'd say 14-15 ...am I right? Lol. I feel like Lenny too (prob why I frequent these forums) and I'm 27! Brilliant analogy, Znd! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S1LV3R_W0LF Posted January 16, 2013 Share Posted January 16, 2013 Rockstar knows you'll buy it a way or another, so why waste money with expensive campaigns or why bother burning their brains thinking about what to give you next to please you without revealing too much?
