Paranormal entities in the woods

[supermati]

Hopefully there is, but with something like a 1 in a 100 chance of seeing it in your whole playthrough.

I have a feeling that this time they will actually add stuff like that.

Probably bigfoot, and only in a Stranger mission.

[I<3GTAV]

I just don't see them adding anything. Maybe a couple references to myths, like messages written on trees.

[gta5freemode4eva]

The truth is out there!

[satanicaleviathan]

I just want the jackalope to come back...

 

I have a stuffed jack rabbit with antlers I got from an antique store in taos, new mexico... I knew about them already as a legend, but after undead nightmare I had to buy the thing, best 40 bucks I've ever spent on something pointless.

Road signs would be neat

There will be no paranormal creatures, because in GTA these things are always kept as a myth, same goes for RDR.

[Peregrin Brandytook]

wtf are melonheads?

[Chris Fromage]

I don't think we would see bigfoot etc directly. More like Big footprints, pedestrians who talk about it, unclear pictures in houses near the forest. I am 99% sure that things like that will be in the game.

wtf are melonheads?

Creepy mutant killer kids, sometimes called Bubbleheads as well. Apparently they're a fairly common myth, but I never heard of them before that Cracked article about monsters that should get horror movies.

 

@Chris Fromage

I definitely agree with this. I don't think that stuff should exist explicitly in GTA V's world, because they don't exist in the real world (well, I guess that can be up for debate, although I really don't feel like having that discussion here), but there should be a certain amount of evidence and hearsay in the world, stuff to excite the community and get them making those creepy Unsolved Mysteries-style Machinimas about GTA V, because those are quite entertaining.

NO. I dont want no over the top bullsh*t creatures. This is GTA 5 after all, not Saints Row. I want myths, i dont want to actually see them. Past GTA's never had mystical creatures, they had myths. The only game i can think of that did that was RDR: Undead Nightmare, and thats not even a GTA game (even though its made by R*)

[Anonamix]

Slender man showing up i the woods could be a cool and creepy easer egg

[ArcherTheGreat]

It would be cool if you happen to be in the forest at night and you're unknowingly sucked into a mission where the whole point is like a Stalker movie/game. You gotta escape the best you can without your minimap

[ArcherTheGreat]

Hey... a secret portal to a deserted Liberty City could be good too

[Micheal Soprano]

I would love a kraken or chuthlu in the depths of the seas

[Jewstinian]

I don't think they'll appear in game, but as sure as there is a Sun, there will be myths about them in the forest. Still recall the times when I tried looking in the woods in SA for anything supernatural.

[DlZZEE]

Lurking in the woods at night

 

 

[DeafMetal]

Yesssss. It'd be an awesome tribute to San Andreas.

[Official General]

 

I don't want any supernatural elements in GTA V, they just wouldn't fit.

 

But I'm looking forward to the crazy sh*t people in the community will come up with. That's where true myths come from anyhow.

I'm with you on all of this

 

Especially the crazy people idea. They should do that random encounter thing like in RDR with the cannibal guy. A crazy, murderous stranger that you might encounter out of nowhere in the countryside or wilderness.

[nigelhere9901]

There were none in GTA SA, why would there be in GTA V?

[dee8ball]

STEAKENSTEIN!!!

 

(music please) oh Steakenstein he chases you in the night!

Luring you to his Slaughter house where he grinds you up and eats you tonight.

Steakenstein! staring at you with his glowing red eyes, shouting at you with his horrifying moo.

Steakenstein! he is the cow made of Realistic steak!

 

Steakenstein. Steakenstein. Steakenstein OH OH OOOH STEAKENSTEEIIN!!!!

 

yeah steakenstein... steakenstein.. wait.. get away aagh OH GOD GET AWAY AAAAAAAAGGH!!!!!!

 

oOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo

[dee8ball]

I hope steakenstein appears.

[Quirx]

See, the problem with putting these things in there is that they would likely be coded to be encountered too much. If there was some way where you would stumble upon say, Bigfoot, after hours and hours of the total time you've spent in forested areas, it would add some creepiness and effectiveness to the whole thing. Then, there would be gossip online of people saying, "Oh, I've seen Bigfoot," while others haven't, similar to Bigfoot in GTA SA, but really true. That would keep some eeriness and the myth part of it alive.

 

That being said, it might be equally as effective to make more common, but random encounters that are creepy, similar to some in RDR. Like someone said above, the cannibal guy in the middle of the desert was weird. Maybe it didn't give you the jump scare of an actual paranormal entity, but it did add to the idea that there are strange people lurking out there. I think GTA V could really expand on this and take it to a new level. Put some nutjob in the middle of the forest with a chainsaw or shotgun and have him chase you through the woods, for example. Because it's a little more down to earth, but still crazy, no matter how many times you run into an event like this, it's still frightening and makes you nervous to wander into the woods at any time.

[Dope_0110]

There will be NOTHING of this sort in V just like there was NOTHING of this sort in SA. But of course, people's gullible minds and imagination came up with anything from big foot to aliens and that's going to happen in V too. Rockstar will only provide a gentle push in the right direction trough radio shows talking about such myths and people will go wild hunting for those creatures.

[Chukkles]

Do you guys think we'll be able to find a paranormal entity, like Bigfoot, Melonheads, etc. in the forest? I personally think it would be cool if you're goobering around in the woods, and then out of nowhere, boom! f*ckin bigfoot comes charging at you and you sh*t yourself.

If Bigfoot existed, he would not be paranormal.

 

Anyway ,no.

[HOAXi]

Do really 50% of you think R* will add this stuff into the game? You guys are mad

 

We do get an Jesus-wannabe dude though, preaching illness and sh*t. I hope I can kill him right there on the street, Tony Montana style. Would be fun.

[1987_EC]

i would say yes, yes and yes but unfortunately Rockstar most probably wont include any of these in the game at all.
