The Answer why Los Santos City looks small


Kill Frenzy!
 Share

Recommended Posts

The topics should really all just stop. Rockstar has promised that, combined with the explorable underwater and interiors, that the Grand Theft Auto V world is larger than the likes of San Andreas, GTA IV, and RDR put together. Whether this means the streets, including that of which we haven't seen and may not have been given a truly clear idea of the size of, are around the size of IV's LC, we don't know. The forum-wide controversy can trail on, but until September 17th (or rather, when that preview appears just a day before the release), we will not know whether or not the game (or just Los Santos) is extremely small.

 

And while the conversation continues (as one person simply repeating what many have already won't urk you to stop), think about this: what if Rockstar purposely put that blueprint on the 'ad' for the SE and CE just to toy with us? What if the scale of the city isn't properly represented on the blueprint (whether that means the city is actually smaller or bigger than what people have pieced together), and purposely as well? Think about it.

/\ THIS! But as we all know, there will always be stupid threads on gtaforums, sh*t I make stupid threads from time to time, but thats the irony of gtaforums. And I think that everyone whos saying Los Santos is gonna be small want it to be small so they can downplay R* or they have issues with trusting a game company that promises a huge interactive map

I'm surprised Official Dickhead isn't blasting off at the mouth in here yet.

Yeah, i'm with you, i don't like that guy and neither his useless rants and vomit inducing posts in general . I still remember his constant bitching and moaning about how Franklin isn't hispanic like that really would have made the game better or worse, who the hell cares ?

You shouldn't be talking like this. Did you know my country and at least whole Europa is sick of countries like yours and all your useless and worthless gypsies civilians sh*t faces? You should die and all the people from your Rumania sh*t country. suicidal.gifsuicidal.gifsuicidal.gif

^This! I do hope you're right, that's just to give fans a sense of how LS looks like generally, and it's really misrepresented in the ad just to lure us into piecing parts of the map together. After all, why take so much care in hiding the map from us, then just carelessly display it out for everyone to see in the SE & CE ad, right? tounge2.gif

Official Dickhead? Bahahaha! lol.gif

 

I think the city is rather unimpressive. I mean look at East Los Santos and the way things are laid out. It looks kind of silly. But because of all of the content this city has, I can deal with it. And hopefully Los Santos at least feels big when I'm on the road.

So is LS the size of exact LC or the size of the whole GTA 4 map (LC + AC + Alderney)?

 

I hope for latter and larger.

Yeah, the city should feel like a big city and that it feels more alive... At least we got a map and we should be happy about that.

SiR R.i.P.P.E.R.
I bet there are more roads than the Blueprint is showing, the Blueprint only shows the mainroads... see if you can locate the beach on the Blueprint, I can't... so there are no beaches in V !?

Is this also a main road for you? It's just a small useless baby road

A baby road with four lanes, each 3,5m (or 10,5ft) wide?

The roads visible on the map are mostly main roads, like the one going down the middle of Alderney, or closer to the road going in front of Roman's apartment in Hove beach.

If what we see on the map is such roads and LS' freeways, the smaller roads and house blocks cannot be seen on it.

My guess is that it is slightly bigger than LC's landmass, ~1,2x its size (not including decorative islands like happiness island).

 

It should be big enough.

Any thoughts? Hope you agree.

Los Santos looks small due to the screens. That is all. I'm sure once we play the full game it'll seem bigger. wink.gif

The city looks small because it is small, end of discussion.

I'm sure you convinced everyone with that username and that join date .

Seriously guys, I didn't understand why you say the city is small. That screen from the blimp looking down is impressive, and that is just one part of the city. Also I thought LC was too damn boring, it was like every street was the same, buildings and streets, buildings and streets more buildings and more streets, there was nothing there. I said this plenty of times and I stick too it, I liked GTA IV but no other GTA till today was able to beat the experience and fun I had in SA. And If you remember right LS, Las Venturas and San Fierro put together were very small and had no detail at all, but there was lots of variety and and that made it fun. This LS looks huge and damn detailed and this is just what we saw and what was shown to the press, no one yet have seen the rest of it.

 

So stop bitching about something you didn't saw yet, the map we got access doesn't have a scale, and for the comparisons we can make from screens into the map, huge spaces/ buildings are tiny spots in that map, so imagine how big it will be.

 

I think some of you need to play some S.A. again and remember how it was exactly, to be honest doesn't look that big now, specially with the lack of details and outdated graphics.

I'm sure there will be MANY, MANY more interiors meaning the city will be more interactive and feel bigger. Wouldn't a huge city with thousands of inaccessible buildings and nothing to do but drive through miles of repetitiveness get boring?

Ooouch !!

 

@ NikoBellic1993

 

Seems like your eagerness to express your dislike for me backfired nastily in your face. It lead someone else to attack you real bad. So bad, I'm not even gonna say anything bad to you after that. It would be too cruel.

 

That venomous diss from Smaaske must have hurt.

 

Now you can see that I'm not such a bad guy after all, and others on here can be much worse. How ya like me now ? that_guy2057_evilgrin.gif

 

@ CallTheCoroner

 

You seem to be deliberately and persistently seeking my attention in the form of some kind of conflict like it's your sole aim in your conversations with me. Not gonna happen, I have not time to waste on you. You can join UberVIIX on my ignore list.

 

No more replies from myself to your silly and pointless posts about me.

I own all 3 games v is supposed to be bigger than, so I lay out all three of there maps and it roughly takes up 3/4 of my queen size bed. So If the map I get with gta 5 isn't as big as my bed ill be disappointed...

 

 

In all honesty this could just be the lower to mid south side of the map ( not even the whole of the south side) so we probably still have a lot to see
