lucid121 Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Do you think it would be cool, if rockstar added cocaine and heroin and make it have effects, like slow down time or speed it up. Yeah I know there will be bullet time and stuff like that, but it would be cool if i could like take drugs and the more drugs I take, the more it last. Also it would be cool if they added a drugs, like steroids that can make you stronger for while. So what do you think about my idea? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FortunateSon Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 No, that idea belongs with the ratzels of Clemondeire. Drugs will have there spotlight but not to the extent that you made up from where no place is. So, have a word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chukkles Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Trevor will probably use a drug to activate his aggression ability. Anyway it would never be a good idea to sow drugs in a good light by having all of our protags taking hem all the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Official General Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 (edited) Taking drugs ? No. Not really interested in the protagonist taking drugs. I cannot really what benefits it would bring to the gameplay apart from slow things down or give hazy, blurry vision, and that's not really exciting or interesting. Besides we had this in Vice City before. Selling drugs ? YES. I want some drug-dealing activities, definitely. I'm very much hoping for a drug business mini-game.

blakeney Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 It's hard for a game of GTA's nature to totally avoid them, i think IV avoided them the most. There's alot of drugs involved in the crime/under world, just like there is a lot of beer and cocktails in the "normal" world... use of and dealing in, if a criminal underworld is going to be correctly portrayed they need to be in really. I don't mind how they have had them in the game up till now, but really for chars like Franklin, Cj etc it would be a nice touch to properly deal and partake in various drugs.

Braindawg Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 Yes. Drugs should be a key mechanic of GTA. Addictions, business. A withdraw effect, all the good stuff! Buying and selling LSD to make a profit, while smoking on a doobie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not about bragging, its about the portrayal of a criminal underworld being more realistic. It's not extreme like wanting fuel etc...

Now we can move on as you said. It's not about bragging, its about the portrayal of a criminal underworld being more realistic. It's not extreme like wanting fuel etc... Drugs are a big part of the criminal underworld be it the use or business of. From the games prospective I agree. Drugs, drink, smoking and all that would be in the game. Hell we have strip clubs, prostitutes and gangbangers so drink and drugs are a given. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet GTA's an 18+ game aint it? If you're a parent and your kid's under aged, playing GTA you gotta make sure he realizes it's just a game. Not just let him play whatever the f*ck he wants.

BlackNoise Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 (edited) I think the protagonists will be able to use drugs to refill their 'Special'. I think Michael will be able to use alcohol like John Marston, Franklin will use cannabis, and Trevor will use meth/crank. And I know it refills slowly over time, but I just think there will be other ways to refill it faster/instantly. It gives you something else to buy if you want.

Triple Vacuum Seal Posted May 21, 2013 Share Posted May 21, 2013 The only reason I liked the idea of Max Payne is because he often times just got high and killed everybody . This sort of behavior seems much more suitable for a GTA protag with a drug history such as Trevor. So yes the addition of addiction would actually be an appropriate and powerful element in V. It would add another level of depth and artistic quality. My suggestions? A simple, but highly dynamic drug addiction feature only with Trevor.... - Trevor's health and special bars can double for the X amount of hours that he's high on meth. However, when these highs wear down, his health bar progressively maxes out at a lower level until he goes to rehab or scores another expensive high. If this health max gets too low enough, all of his physical abilities are near useless. - He becomes more distant and mistake prone when continuously on drugs. - If you take Trevor to one of those ritualistic Native American-themed desert rehab places or a parody of the famous ones such as Passages Malibu and the Betty Ford center, then his health bar will restore to normal. However, he will unavailable to play with for a short period of time and this will be expensive. - If you're a G, then you could just rob your drugs and stockpile them. But then you'll have to be high all the time to keep your health up. ...I doubt R* would go into this much depth. If they did, it would complete Trevor's character.
