Will there be JUST desert areas?

I know there are many topics like this, but I just want to discuss again. Don't get me wrong, R* said the map will be the largest map and I'm sure it will be an awesome game. But:

 

Since R* said in their last interview that you can travel through Los Santos and Blaine County I got quite worried.

Blaine County seems to be pretty dry and desert-like. What I LOVED in San Andreas were the farm areas and the forest areas where you felt alone and far away from the city. All the variety. I'm just worried that the whole map will be "desert-ish".

 

I want areas like Flint County (sry for the large screens..)

Just areas where you feel alone and far away from civilitation, like Truth's house up on a mountain in a forest in San Andreas... for example. I want a lot of variety, only desert and mountains would be boring in my opinion.

 

What do you think? Will cold forest-like areas, green areas, etc. be in the game or will it only feature Blaine County with a desert-like countryside?

That's near alamo sea I think, and it also looks pretty dry, except the trees on the mountain.

 

I just hope there are places which are extremely far away from Alamo Sea, Blaine County and Los Santos, deep forests and dark areas like in SA.

Whetstone, Blueberry, Flint County, Palomino Creek, Angel Pine, Red County etc where awesome places with great atmosphere, forests, farmland and some "creepyness" at night.

Quote from GI:

 

"Vast city, rivers, coastline, countryside, hills, mountains, canyons, deserts, wetlands, forests and all the little towns, farms, buildings and settlements" (Aaron Garbut)

 

Also, there is snow in the game. (Don't ask me how I know).

If u watch the screens we got, i cant see that we will have that in V. There were some small towns but rest was pretty empty dessert and alamo sea.

Probably there is like a huge second part of the map ( considering the user made map ) where u have way more forest and stuff.

 

Imo there is a huge part behind the mountain row where the train goes into the mountain.

 

But on almost all screens (except grapseed) i do notnhave this feeling. A huge thing which supported what u mentioned is that the drawing distance was very low. In V u can see los santos from all over.

 

I hope the map looks totally different to what people maped in the LS thread.

All screens we have today are from the same places (except Grapeseed). They show Alamo Sea/parts around Alamo Sea, parts of Blaine County near Los Santos/Alamo Sea and Los Santos itself. I'm sure/I hope there is a f*ckin huge part of the map R* has not shown yet (behind Alamo Sea, east of LS and West of LS).

 

@sibs44: Ah ok, sounds good. Hopefully there are huge forests and farmlands in the game, they should be as "creepy" as in San Andreas. The old wood house at mt. chiliad for example. Or places that are pretty far away, like Truth's house up in the hills of the forest near San Fierro or areas like hidden farms, old houses etc.

Remember the screenshot from one of the viewers of the tractor on the farm? There will be farming community as well as desert. I think their will be a good mixture of everything.

Snow in LA? I dont know....

And we havent seen snow on mountain tops yet

There is a artwork what shows snow on mountain tops - the one with Trevor holding the sniper rifle and quad

 

Also there was snow in red dead redemption, it would be nice to have some snow smile.gif

I guess Blaine County is not only desert, all of the wilderness, wine countries, etc. we've seen is probably also part of Blaine County.

@sibs: I think thats a bold assumption to say there is snow. You cant make such a statement and then refuse to provide evidence

TC apparently hasn't seen trailer 1 or 2 or a good portion of the screens. I suggest you watch trailer 1 and trailer 2. they're both pretty entertaining.

Thats more likely just the colorpallet for the art. I highly doubt its snow

We will not play in a second San Andreas with one state, but you can see in the trailer and the screens, different places. Deserts, forests, one big city biggrin.gif , and all the other places you can remember from GTA SA. And one new thing: a dynamic and realistic ocean. Not a boring lake, with fake fishes...

It will be some times bigger than RDR and this was bigger than GTA SA.

I'm sure: We will not play only in desert, outside of Los Santos, in GTA V....

This. I'm sure the TC didn't even bother looking at the Trailers or Screenshots.

That's weird since Snow top mountains are about 1 Hour from Los Angeles City in Real Life.

but somehow rockstar are excluding them and adding a Salton Sea look-a-like which is 2 and a Half Hours away.

This just doesn't make sense confused.gif

Exactly what I was thinking. I think R* will blow everybody away withsnowy mountains with ski resort, snowmobile, --all the stuff that goes along with it. Just Cause did it. How hard could it be? And it would be accurate because, as you said, there is snowy mountains about an hour away. I think it's a secret that R* will keep 'til the game comes out and we will all be like: "holy f**kin' sheep sh*t batman!!!"

Yea it would be stupid of them not to include it.

Lets just hope that there are Snowy Mountains in the game based on San Gabriel Mountain Range, Cant wait to drive (the mustang in T2) on snowy mountain roads!!

 

Also they should make it really foggy up their so it feels bigger than it actually is and would save disk space.
