Range of weapons..

[ChrissDaMan]

How big do you think the range of weapons will be in GTAV?

 

I remember when i played GTA IV for the first time in the end of 2008, when i played that mission

 

where you had to throw a rock into the chinese store or what ever it was... i had such a high hope that the player could pick up

 

pretty much everything and use as a weapon, i dont think im alone thinking that... i thought its quite disipointing that there only where like

 

12 weapons

 

----

 

But imagine how many weapons there might be in GTAV, i mean, if Rockstar took all the weapons we seen in the screen-shots, the trailers,and

 

artworks, then maybe adding all the weapons that was in GTA IV, TLAD and TBoGT

 

Here are all from IV, TLAD and TBoGT

 

And here are all from GTA V (so far)

 

 

 

I mean why would it be so wierd for R* to add them all to the game?

as you remember Game Informer said

 

When you include interior and exterior spaces together, Los Santos is bigger than the worlds of Red Dead Redemption, San Andreas and IV combined, with room to spare.

 

Maybe its the same for weapons and vehicles to for that matter, well that would be how many? 500-600 vehicles which im sure wont happen..

today anyways....

 

---

remember that old leak that came right after the first trailer? where someone said they got to play GTA V for 30 minutes.

It said that you could go to a museum and take a sword and use as a weapon

i know it was all fake

But how fun would it be if R* did it to the game

 

or maybe steeling this old mans saxofone, would be great if you dont have any weapons for exemple..

I think it was kinda boring with all the NPCs in IV, for exemple when the street-workers just dropped their drills, sledgehammers etc

then they just laid there on the ground inpossible to pickup..

 

 

So to my question

how big do you think the range of weapons actually will be?

[RB26]

I remember seeing a silenced gun Niko was holding in a GTA IV screenshot but it never was in the game but who knows with Rockstar nothing is certain. I hope there is a large variety of weapons or if not a large amount we can at least customise the gun by adding an attachment or two and Rockstar already said this game is going to have the most cars then any other game they've ever built, I can't imagine them only putting in like 12 twelve guns in the final game. Also I hope the colt from the screenshot is in the game, would be my favourite gun in the whole game lol.

[greenrock]

i remember reading that gta 5 will also have the biggest arsonal of any gta

 

but i could be wrong

[THEREALRIK]

 

Ammu-Nation also makes its return after its hiatus from Grand Theft Auto IV, and a weapon arsenal that is the biggest in the Grand Theft Auto series to date.

 

I dont think you need to worry much about the variety of weaponry but unfortunately i dont think youll be able to pick up anything off the ground to use as a weapon.

When ya say how far we will be able to shoot, i instantly think of draw distance , now in gta iv

the sniper was the 1 that had longest range (of course ) now that the map is way larger i hope the draw distance can double

or be a little more ,& in options Draw distance will be yet again in for options - other than that the weapons ive seen & the ones you mentioned seem to have improved heaps .

 

Also i think you missed 1 from GTA V the one were the officer is aiming with laser

The draw distance was the issue, the combat sniper has unlimited range in GTA IV. As far as range of weapons I am hoping these pics with silenced AK-47s and AR-15s actually means something this time.

 

 

 

 

[ChrissDaMan]

But what i keep thinking on is, that the most of the funs in these artwork might not even turn up in the game..

 

THis AK47 for exemple

 

I dont think this shotgun was in the game

 

Same with this M4? or what ever its called

 

i mean, those are 3 weapons..

[rjmthe2nd]

I Think GTA V Will have 5 Sets of weapons.

 

like

 

GTA IV's Normal List

 

TLAD's List

 

and TBOGT's list combined with newer ones.

 

 

[ugotsmoked]

Fingers crossed they have the shotgun from TLAD.

[Red XIII]

I thought you meant the actual distance the bullets will travel. lol

[ugotsmoked]

I thought you meant the actual distance the bullets will travel. lol

In my opinion they should all be like the combat sniper in IV...UNLIMITED.

[Getzmunney]

Im thinking a gun type for 3 protags..for instance basic handguns: Michael-colt 911, Franklin-glock 19, trevor-beretta. And ofcourse they can mix and match

[roebuck34]

what the hell is that stick thing with the iv weapons

[r0eladn]

Nice how we have already seen 10 weapons or so so far.

 

And IV had like 12 weapons.

 

[ThatOneDork]

what the hell is that stick thing with the iv weapons

That would be a pool cue I believe.

[ChrissDaMan]

what the hell is that stick thing with the iv weapons

Hre is the "real" on from The Lost And Damned

 

 

That gives me another idea... what if you could take a whole Pool cue like the one in San Andreas, then simply take it apart for a shorter one, like the one in GTA TLAD..

 

why?

If you have the long cue, it gives more powerful hits but its slower to swing!

 

and the short one gives less harder hits but its faster to swing if you get what i mean

It was confirmed in the Game Informer cover-story that GTA V will have the biggest arsenal of the whole franchise. San Andreas had averagely 3 guns per slot, and GTA IV had averagely 2 guns per slot. If we include all weapons of each game, then San Andreas had 48 weapons while GTA IV had 16 weapons in total which excludes the ones you can randomly pick up (bricks, etc.). I think that V will have less 'odd melee weapons' compared to GTA SA but it will have more guns. It would be cool if there are 3-4 weapons per slot, which is the case with the handguns and the assault rifles from what we know so far.

No.. Actually 3 regular hand guns have been shown.. The one with trevor and the truck on fire is a high powered pistol.. Ala desert eagle or magnum

[DS 17]

Called bat / telescope bat I guess.

We have seen the Beretta 92FS in this screenshot of Trevor, the Colt M1911 in this artwork with all three protagonists, and the Glock 17/18 in this artwork and on the box art. Last but not least, there is one pistol where the opinions are different when it comes to the real life counter part. You can see it in this screenshot of Trevor. That's probably a Glock 17L/20L and/or a H&K Mark 23. That are four pistoles in total, but of course, artworks aren't always 100% accurate. Also, I have said 3-4 guns per slot averagely so basically, you didn't disagree with me.

the graphics look sh*tty in those pics now im kinda concerned

IV weapons were a huge letdown compared to all the other GTAs

 

LAD/TBOGT activities and weapons should have been in IV in the first place

 

there never was a gta with that few weapons; I hated that

[r0eladn]

I dont want to be captain accurate but I and II had less guns.

I'm talking 3D era obviously

don't compare things that shouldn't be compared

[Tycek]

GTA III has much less weapons than IV.

[Pilotmonkey]

Aren't we all forgetting projectiles?

We need M320's

An AA Like a Stinger or Igla

M67's

Smokes

flash bangs

Maybe EMP for a certain mission ( Hope im not going too Sam fisher)

Maybe an AT4 or SMAW?

[Andreas]

You are exaggerating now. GTA III for example had even fewer weapons, it had 12 weapons in total and that includes the fist and the baseball bat. It's not much different with GTA Advance and the original game. However, you're right about GTA IV having less weapons than all the other games since Vice City and onwards.

[esvi]

 

GTA III has much less weapons than IV.

Yeah like 3 weapons is "much" less...

 

My point is, only 3 weapons more than the first 3D era GTA?

its a letdown anyhow

 

Vice City :

Vice City Stories :

Liberty City Stories :

GTA SA :

 

IV was a letdown weapon wise

you have to be delusional to deny this.

EFLC was much better than IV when it comes to weapons' choice

Read what i said. That pistol in the trevor truck fire pic doesnt count as a regular pistol.
