MrcTOtheJ Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I most definitely will, especially if I get better internet by the time GTAV comes out, which is looking hopeful since I'll be on my own by then. That said I did a few in SA:MP when I played that where fun with others, and in GTAIV when I got bored, I reviewed cars once when I got bored talking about the specs, and such just happened when I was driving a Balista Compact once talking to my self lol. Also did a few SP chanenges as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heath_89 Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I can't help thinking of the Top Gear Vietnam Special for some reason when I read this. The Faggio should make a return.

Honest Bill Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I will definitely get some friends together and try to race the biggest oil trailers i can find over narrow, winding, mountain roads. That should be good for a laugh... Or perhaps an hilarious explosion or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nujee Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 You know what would rock.......multilayer......gone guy catches a train, one drive to a set location just like the real thing.......and we make a video out of that. kick ass......i love top gear- this is going to be awesome.

Top Gear GTA V Challenge: Loop the entire map on a Faggio without falling off or crashing. If you manage not to fall off, you should get a trophy called 'Better than Clarkson' I think that would be really good if somebody made a weekly show which had a review of a random vehicle in game, and possibly a challenge, like 3 people trying to drive trucks with trailers up Mt Chilliad. I always set myself challenges in IV like starting in one corner of the map and trying to get to the other side without a single scratch on my car, whilst obeying traffic laws.. its harder than you think lol. Lets come up with a list of challenges and once the game releases they could be done one by one on a YouTube show! My ideas: Ascend Mt Chilliad in trucks pulling trailers Race between a submarine and a car, one full lap of the map (car must go to each corner of the land, submarine must obviously circle the land) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Len Lfc Posted May 9, 2013 Author Share Posted May 9, 2013 Haha, awesome ideas guys, glad to hear other people are into this too! I'll definitely be re-enacting this from the Robbing an Albanian Bank challenge (because I have no idea what it actually was called, lol) Plus a lot of others, one thing that I brought up in the Bugatti thread was racing the Veyron('s representation) vs one of the fighter jets like they did in Top Gear (or rather some one else brought it up and I used the Top gear clip as an example). I completely forgot about that too! IF & it is an unlikely if, but if the aircraft in GTA V have some sort of altimeter (How did cvg know they were at 13,000 feet?), it would make that drag race pretty close to the real deal on Top Gear!

wwinterj Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 omg whats up with all these racing topics. It's not a racing game go play forza or something if you wanna race. This is gta-Grand Theft Auto! you steal cars and shoot people. not race around in cars all day. OMG WHTZ UP WITH IGNORANT CHLDREN IN DISS GAME LOOOOLZ! The point on GTA game is to play however you please. The point of any game is to have fun in whatever you do. Who are you to judge? Although not a fan of Top Gear I do like creative ideas like this and will for sure try some out myself. Keep the ideas coming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could also run polls on which cars to review first etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Max Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 I think this would be a really fun way to kill some time on the game. Get yourself a Limo, say and see how far it makes it off-road across the map/Makes it up Mt. Chiliad. I really like the idea OP, thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogueStatus Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 im from America and love the UK version, the US version is garbage compared to it. and this is a great idea and would love to see it incorporated. even if not part of the game but could be done in multiplayer on free mode. tons of options!

But what do you have against OTHER PEOPLE having races in GTA games? This topic isn't even strictly about races, but Car based challenges. Yes some of them will be races, but not all. Please learn to respect other peoples opinions. I have no intention of insulting you because you share a different opinion to me, even if I dislike it.

Yep, because I should listen to a guy on the internet who doesn't read. No thanks. I'll just read what Dan Houser says and maybe get into some racing in GTA IV until GTA V releases. I would think you at least tried to look it up. Even Wiki says this... "The series is set in fictional locales heavily modelled on American cities, while an expansion for the original was based in London. Gameplay focuses on an open world where the player can choose missions to progress an overall story, as well as engaging in side activities, all consisting of action-adventure, driving, occasional role-playing, stealth, and racing elements." No reason to get upset. Just do some research. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fraizer Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 There was a trophy/achievement on RDR to ride a horse from Blackwater to the left side of Mexico in a certain time limit. I imagine this along the lines of what you are talking about. I am sure there will be something along these lines in achievements/trophies since there is a huge emphasis on map size now. But creating your own challenges would be fun as well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But creating your own challenges would be fun as well! Pretty much, yeah, although it wouldn't necessarily be a race, but more about the challenge of navigating the terrain without destroying your vehicle. It would be more about reaching point Z from Point A in the same Car. Although you could race a friend in MP sure.

DWTDevil Posted May 9, 2013 Share Posted May 9, 2013 How about releasing a car from a cargo plane a mile high above the finishing line, and on the ground a car racing to the finishing line a mile off. So, it's a matter of whether the car hits the ground first or the other car reaches the finishing line. It's kind of like what Hammond did with a Porsche and its predecessor the VW Beetle.
