Return Of Rampages?

A traditional addition to the GRAND THEFT AUTO formula that was abruptly stripped from IV was the rampages. Personally, I thoroughly enjoyed them as they offered a challenging but of fun and a reason to kill people, moreover, we were rewarded. With regard to V, I really want them to return. How about you? Post your point of view below.

What do you mean they stripped rampages in IV? I had some pretty fun rampages!

Mission rampages. not just shoot everybody and start a fight.

I'd like them to return, but I can't see Rockstar implementing them again. Were rampages in SA?

I think the reason they were taken out in was because imo they (the actual rampage missions) were on the biggest factors that lead the type of idiot that complains about games they don't or haven't even played, or the type of fool they buys their 10yo a 18+ game that (in their words) tells little Johnny to do awful things, focuses on and leads them to complain.

 

How it was in IV, you could "rampage" but you choose to... so who's in the wrong? R* for not somehow stopping the ability to "rampage" or the person that has consciously decided to rampage?

 

If it has nothing to do with that, and i'm talking sh*t... I hope they do come back.. they were one of the many avenues of fun Gta had to offer! smile.gif

No. They were fun in the beginning, but still no. You can just cause your own rampages, and create them however you'd like.

@dropthasystem so, its fun but you wouldnt want it in? Well, with that logic; lest get rid of guns. They are fun but, we don't need them. Motorcycles? Nah, too fun. You can "create" your own motorcycles. I don't understand your logic. Please give a proper explanation as to why the feature should be implemented.

As you know though... the rampage missions we not just "go on a rampage", they spawned masses of peds and/or npc's, and had different elements to their behaviour that you can't properly replicate by just "going on a rampage".

Rampages in Gta games were an excellent pass time, I just can't see it return in Gta V.

Abruptly stripped from IV? Rampages weren't even in SA. dozingoff.gif

 

In any case, rampages are redundant and too arcade-y for V. They were always pointless, considering you can just engage in a free form rampage any time you like.

Yeah, but the game doesn't give you money for it unless you pause at every moment to pick up cash on every kill.

 

Besides, it's an optional side mission. I don't see how it would be bad.

They were in SA, but they were only playable if you had a second player.

Ah, I see. I just booted up SA and found the double skulls in Pershing Square. Well, considering SA is primarily a SP game and I always play alone, for all intents and purposes there were no rampages... not like in III and VC anyway.

This is an issue where we'll have to agree to disagree. There are other ways to earn money in GTA and you can pick up cash off corpses anyway. In any case, rampages just kill the atmosphere and make the world feel inauthentic, like Saints Row with all its nonsensical minigames. I hate to be a fascist, but I wouldn't even want rampages as an option. They just shouldn't be canon... rewarding carnage contradicts how law enforcement normally behaves in the game. In essence, they contradict the rules of the world and make it feel that much more like an arcade game... and this is what makes them bad. I'd prefer a never wanted and extra money for every kill cheat... something that is officially a cheat and peripheral to the game.

Rampages could stir some controversy in the media but from a gameplay perspective they are okay, they could be one of Trevor's side activities. I do think they should stick with killing gang members or drug dealers or other criminals, though. Civilian rampages are a bit weird and should not be obligatory for completing the game 100%.

 

I have to agree with some points mentioned before, rampages as they've been in the past would feel too 'gamey', for a lack of a better word, in a modern GTA game. Maybe re-brand it as something else like Forensic Cleaning. Idea would be to 'clean' the area of criminals. Then you'd kill or beat up as many thugs as possible during the time limit. If you had not fled the scene before time ran out you'd get a wanted level of maybe 2 stars. After getting rid of your wanted level the mission would be completed and the area cleansed of criminals for a while.

 

This way rampages would turn into something meaningful that would actually benefit the game world and change it.

I'd like to see them return. It would fit Trevor's personality.

A minigame for Trevor, maybe?

KILL FRENZY!

 

But yeah, it should definitely be one of those Character specific activities they mentioned, with this being for Trevor.
