the 4th player slot rumour


lll-H-I-M-lll

Recommended Posts

I think the most logical thing surrounding the fourth player would be:

 

- Extra character during missions (i.e chop)

- Gateway to multiplayer outside of missions (nifty way of moving to multiplayer could be, the zoom out function when switching to the multiplayer character, and then it zooms back in to where you last left multiplayer, from which you can just drive around in free roam or move to a lobby such as races etc. If first time playing, would start you out at the airport or something. That's something I really want to see, a seamless transition to multiplayer)

 

There will be no custom character for use in Single Player, FACT.

Step into my office and I will pour you a steaming hot cup of shut the f*ck up.

Freddy needs a nanny!

 

Hope it's a custom MP character though. Knowing R*, it probably isn't. We can dream.

Most likely multiplayer. If not that, then maybe for certain missions where there's an extra person who has an important part of the mission. Lamar, Ron, Jimmy ect.

Just think how annoying it would be if youre playing through the single player game and you accidentally switch to the online 4th slot and it switches over. icon13.gificon13.gificon13.gif

that would cause a huge headache thats why i don't think that slot is for extra missions i hope my theory is correct adding your own character would be mental

I bet its MP, but fingers crossed that it is our fully customizable character for both MP and SP.

icon14.gif Right on, same character crossing over SP to MP, and we can actually advance the SP game and play some essential missions as our custom character, and do a lot of SP free roam rampaging and stat building using this character. Honestly, I rarely have adjusted to playing as a protag and fully role-playing the story arc in my mind. I want to pretend it is me in the game, living in Los Santos and doing this cool stuff.

I doubt R* will ever let us do character creations.

been possible on football games and other games for along time pal the thing i question is..would it be possible to fully customise a forth player to a sandbox game?? sounds crazy but could rockstar have a naughty trick up there sleeves.

 

then you have to question why and how are they adding to epsilon if the games under the 'just polishing' and testing phase?

I know its been possible on football games and other games. But R* had never done it, and why would they now?

To a few of you saying making a custom player would be impossible... it's not.

 

Saints Row does it. You make your character however you like appearance wise, and when you give them their voice, it chooses their lines. Not brain surgery... It'd be cool if that happened cause then that player would carry over to MP.

maybe that slot for a character you unlock after completing the game and he will not be with the other characters instead he will have his own story and you can access him from the main-menu

Because Epsilon program, makes them look cool and being a part of the Epsilon cult.

Because they always use FACT. So now everyone is a part of the Epsilon sh*te.

It wouldnt be a problem if they add a warning when you select the 4th slot that says "Are you sure you want to leave the SP?" with YES and NO options. That way if someone accidentally chooses 4th he can go for NO and remain in the SP.

 

It could be MP.. But it could also be to handle the 4th guy in occasional missions which require more than 3 guys. Like Jimmy or even Chop.

Previews actually mentioned the slot was for multiplayer. It's seemingly confirmed.

 

I can see them making your multiplayer avatar a part of the single-player world, but when you switch to him/her you get all the multiplayer options on your phone: join game, customize avatar, etc. If it's done like this, what we get is a pretty non-abrupt transition into multiplayer that can quickly be escaped if we hit the wrong button. Maybe the second you hit the button it starts searching for a free-roam lobby and other players start entering the game world you were already playing single-player in.

 

As for customizing our own character, I don't think complete customization is totally necessary. I don't need to control how wide their jaw is or the colour of their eyes and so on. But what if they just give us a large selection of pedestrians? Maybe 100 or so heads that can be mixed-and-matched with 100 or so shirts and so on.
