Map Size Thread

[kesta195]

Los Santos is smaller, go home.

Exactly

 

Los Santos is smaller than Liberty City, give up the f**king ghost already.

 

 

(stressing the word I as I do not identify myself with any of the ridiculous little cliques that this thread has spawned)

 

Really ? I'd say the RDF were more like an army and a whole movement.

It's a small group of people on an internet forum defending the size of a virtual city. There is nothing more insignificant.

[AlienWillHeMonsta]

Why has this thread survived? For what purpose?

[AceHigh11]

Isn't it fair to say, simply, that both IV's Liberty City and V's Los Santos are a similar size? Los Santos is a little smaller, but it's one solid clump of city rather than split up into islands. The overall map is going to be far bigger than anything in GTA history. There's nothing small about this game really.

Can't disagree. Game will definitely feel big.

I really don't know why you feel the need to state this. Like a million guys before you, now you wanna add the same thing.

 

Nobody ever disputed this, it's irrelevant to the debate and argument about the city's map size only.

 

How many times do you people need to told on here it's no one is arguing about the full map size ?

 

It's not gonna change the fact that the city clearly appears smaller than LC on the blueprint map.

 

@ AlienWillHeMonsta

 

Just a few polite questions.

 

Where you forced into discussing this thread at gunpoint ? Does this thread continuing directly affect your life in a negative way ?

 

YES or NO ?

[Ferocious Banger]

Liberty City felt large. But a major contributing factor to it feeling larger was the bridges.

Agree with what ?

 

Nobody disputed that, so you are just agreeing with what nobody argued against in the first place.

I've seen a lot of flaming and arguing about grammar in this topic. A lot of bullsh*t.

His question is perfectly reasonable. It's a good way to put it in perspective.

YES. Your inane ramblings about LS v LC size makes me question what your true motive is.

 

The map is not going to change!

 

What is the point of bleating on about the size? Its not going to change is it?

 

So what is the purpose in rabbiting on about the size of Los Santos? So you're disappointed? Yeh and? What next?

 

Clearly your target is Rockstar and your using this trivial detail as an excuse. The so called RDF only highlights

what you're really about.

ha get a life pal, if you showed some form of respect or dignity instead of acting like an asswhole maybe more people would look at it from your perspective but all you do it bitch and moan and force your opinion down peoples throats.

[Mr.Arrow]

Its official , Los santos is smaller than liberty city.

 

Now sit down RDF.

[FAH-Q]

Ok, now you're just trying to force your opinion on others, and when they don't agree, you get mad. Back it down a few notches.

[Njale]

Topic name is Los Santos size not GTA V map size, i don't understand the people that come in and talk about the overall size of the map this topic is not the place to talk about that.

Wow, I never realized that someone ONLINE COMMENTS about VIDEO GAMES on an INTERNET FORUM on the other side of the world, and whom you HAVE NEVER SEEN could affect and impact your everyday life in such a negative way.

 

Such delicate and sensitive emotions you possess. Okay, I see that.

 

Look bro, it's a forum. People are gonna say what they feel and you can't stop that. Don't like it ? Fine, challenge them, prove them wrong. But if you don't wanna be here, seriously just leave. But don't be asking for a thread to locked just because YOU don't like it. That is being self-centered and obnoxious.

 

You don't like, I say politely, just leave.

 

@ TheBankManager

 

I thank you for your compliments

 

But I don't give a flyin' f**k about what others think about my perspective. I'm gonna express it regardless.

 

You have the RDF's accounts and funds to manage, let me not disturb you.

You obviously cannot read. Scroll up and read again, if you are capable of it.

 

I did not say I did not care about what others think. But I now see you are an illiterate f**k, so I won't bother continuing a discussion with you.

The title of the forum is "Los Santos Size - Compared to Liberty City"

 

It's not "Im gonna throw my toys out the pram because LS looks to small to me - come in if you feel like me"

 

The so called discussion hasn't progressed at all - as expected. And as I said in another thread even if LS was 2x LC you'd find something to moan about for the sake of it. Case-in-point.

 

So the real question is for much longer can you keep repeating the same message knowing nothing will change?

Don't worry about my issues.

 

You wanna discuss, debate or argue the city size ? Let's go to the table and stay on topic.

 

If you wanna talk about my personal life, the politely shut the f**k up and don't worry about it. You don't know me in that way ok ?

We're well aware that voicing our dissatisfaction on an internet forum isn't going to change sh*t, but at the same time, I'm not going to tape up my mouth after feeling quite substantially let down. Those type of individuals are why Activision make millions year after year selling the same rehashed sh*te. Their fanbase couldn't identify a well made game if it smacked them in the face, so they're quite happy to get raped on an annual basis.

 

However, I've bought and loved every GTA bar Advance and Chinatown Wars, and have watched them all progress from the previous. To see our new city being clearly smaller than our last, as evidenced from that blueprint, provides a perception on the game going backwards, not forwards in regards to this aspect. Many of us, with good reason, are a little pissed of with this, and are using this forum to highlight our anger.

 

So again, yes, we can't change sh*t. But what we can possibly do, is get our thoughts through to R* so they may learn from this and make their games even better in the future, unlike, as I earlier said, sit silently and watch our favourite franchise take the route of CoD and slowly decline into the sh*tty shambles that franchise now represents.

[NikoVercetti]

People are actually arguing over negligible size differences.

[98 in 1]

^ ^

 

CoD isn't a good example of consumers not voicing their opinion to be honest Scottish. In fact, the CoD community is definitely one of the more vocal ones. The problem is, the developers (more often than not) take the feed back and instead of improving on it, they just f*ck it up even more or just straight up ignore the problem. I don't mean to derail the thread, but saying the CoD community just sits their with their mouths shut while Activi$ion shovels sh*t into their face isn't true. Well, aside from the fact that 90% of the complainers continue to purchase and play their games. I can say this because I used to be a part of the CoD community (and I am a doctor as well).

Well in the poll on this thread http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?act=ST&f=239&t=557717

your complaints stands at 22% against the map size. So given that the next GTA will be on the next gen console there's bound to be improvements.

 

But this GTA on this gen console is the biggest open world game they've produced so far. It hasn't shrunk in size or content compared with previous GTAs and Los Santos is not smaller than Liberty City. But if you're only worried about Los Santos then you're going to be in trouble because the whole game is covered by the whole of the map, not just Los Santos.

Really? So have you shot off an email to Mouth off, like you're supposed to do. I highly doubt a R* rep is sitting in on this thread and taking notes. They made the city, the way they wanted it to be, because, you know, they are a video game developer and know how to make their maps fun.

 

Who knows, maybe they did make the city as big a "you guys" want it in the first place, but after a little time, they realized it wouldn't work.

[Mr.Arrow]

Los Santos has less streets than liberty city

 

[Deffpony]

Sanex's comparison sucks, the whole human/building scale is just as laughable as all of the people who try to calculate the square footage of the city. Here's the most accurate comparison:

 

First of all, the person/building comparison was mine.

 

Second, I asked you twice why that point of reference would be inaccurate and I'm still waiting for your reasoning.

 

Third, how is my scale laughable yet comparing the street lines is fool proof. Street aren't all the same exact width, and blocks are even less reliable.

 

IMO I think alot of people are making comparison based on what they WANT the map to be, using far less reliable reasoning and saying "that looks about right"

[AceHigh11]

There are a lot less streets in LS compared to LC. That's the weirdest thing for me.

[Mr.Arrow]

Just look how small the size of Los santos is

 

 

Im disappointed

[kesta195]

Because of the terrain. You can't build a grid pattern up the side of a mountain.
