Not really knowledgable on drugs (even though I live in Holland tounge.gif ), but do they even increase any of your abilities? I know that some one them have an adrenaline-esque result, but there can't be drugs that solely have positive effects on your awareness, right? Don't (most) drugs just leave you tripping, as in completely UNaware of your surroundings (if you take enough of them that is)?

f*ck yeah, I hope the gang trips balls on mescaline out in the desert for a mission because Trevor dosed them all or something.

 

I will be most displeased if I can't smoke some crack on the "D" of the Vinewood sign. I don't see any other reason for climbing up there.

Yes, I think V should incorporate drugs. If anybody remembers, Vice City did. You could go into a store and get a blue and red pill that altered the player.

Dude gta isn't real life, I do think rockstar should add drugs to activate bullet time or rage mode.

Taking and the effects of drugs? Hell No! Getting drunk was good for a 30 second laugh but this is too far. If you make them have cool effects that serve the gameplay (temporary invincibility, super speed/strength, etc.) then you're glorifying drug abuse. Rockstar has grown up and is too smart to go there. On the other side of things, if you make them hinder the player even for a small amount of time like getting drunk, then its a pointless distraction that's ultimately unnecessary.

 

I wouldn't mind a fleshed out version of Chinatown's drug trafficking system though. I thought that micro-management was cool but I never played it. Did it get a PS2 port or am I mistaken?

 

Anyway, drug trafficking that intertwines with and benefits the in-game economy? Yes. Drug abuse? Get out with that.

It would be pretty easy for Rockstar to implement coke, weed and ecstasy, seeing as they've already used alcohol in IV. I wouldn't mind the addition of psychedelics, too.

Yes as the Marijuana culture is Cali and even in America is changing especially in Cali. I thought there was a preview that said that some shipwrecks will be full of drugs. Drug dealing should be included also.

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?

They are gonna face designing up mp as like it was in max payne 3

If they make it able so that you can take LSD and make it sound and look really good then that'd be great.

I always picture posts like this said in a snooty british accent and it makes me laugh.

 

Tattoos and haircuts are also "a pointless distraction that's ultimately unnecessary." So is tennis. And golf. It's the little things that make the game so fun.

No! America won the war on drugs 50 years and $20,000,000,000.00 ago! Unless the drugs you're speaking of happen to be the super happy fun pills from pharmaceutical corporations, then yeah, let's all get f*cked up on adderall and run around trying to bite sharks in multiplayer!

I'm hoping for a mission where you're on LSD being chased by the cops in the desert.

I don't know, maybe only for mission purposes but even then it was confusing as f*ck to control the character in Far Cry 3 when he was high, but R* would probably make it easier. I'm guessing it wwould just have the same alcohol style swaying effect in cars, maybe distorted sounds.

 

One thing I definetely want back is adrenaline pills.

Okay.Before ban take effect , i need to say that wanker trevor , might could find benefits at some pillzzzz for unleashing a madness of melee strikes with his own fighting technique and a thing like......Berseker who can't withstand justin bieber anymore or smth.

That might be cool when wankerish brawlers from SWAT ( or how ever it is called ) appear.

Or maybe when a bear offend trevor.

Ofc that will affect his hp though and ( IF HE HAVE ) it might stop his hp regen for 24 hours ( in game hours ).

So it will be balanced...

Tattoos, haircuts, tennis and yoga aren't controversy for controversy's sake. Taking drugs would add nothing to the gameplay but a visual effect for a few seconds. Besides, if the characters can even interact with drugs in anyway, a real criminal mastermind with his eye making money isn't going to use the sh*t. It's one thing to express as part of his character that Trevor has drug problem by showing snorting coke or passed in with needles sticking out of him or anything else they imagine. You want to establish Trevor's habits? Sure. I'm all for that. Having the player interact with it whether a full blown mini-game or just a button simple button press is just silly.

 

I will make a point though, that I didn't mind it in Max Payne because he simply popped pills to top off his adrenaline. They never said what type of pills and they never glorified the sensation of it. So if Trevor simply pops some junk and refills the rage? Great! Cheesy psychedelic effects can go away. I just believe it needs to serve the gameplay without glorifying it. That's all. Again, trafficking would be cool because that's money. Hell, even getting access to rage pills for adrenaline because your business is booming would be cool. I'm just tried of games adding cheesy effects for the hell of it.

Yes, because a crude tongue-in-cheek business name is the same as interactive drug abuse...

But i bet that u agree with the fact trevor need a bersek magic pill to become hulk eddition or smth.

Who wouldn't agree with that?

OR PROBABLY a dtug that bring luck? tounge2.gifP ( for fun ) which will be EXTREMELLY EXPENSIVE but also a WORTH TAKEN RISK so you may get rich by playing at casino during this drug effect who michael ( probably ) have used.

 

 

EDIT: Cause it will be considered as racism to not mentioning franklin.So uhmm...

A drug that will turn him from big nyyuugah black to white normal human living beign person? ( Now i am for certain not a racist )

Damn it guys, I am not talking about getting high on drugs. I am talking about using drugs to get special ''abilities'', for instance, you could go to a drug store, buy some drugs, keep them in your pocket, then use them whenever you need to. Argh was that too hard to understand.
