GTAV’s real-time weather effects will create...

[Fisciletti]

I've always wanted this.

[Kiffster]

Is puddles suddenly the realistic steak from 2013 or what? What is so relevant or interesting about puddles? Why the f*ck is no one talking about lightnings?

I did

[FAH-Q]

Is this Fox News section?

[krammkracker]

All this talk about waves, would be sick to have some surfing in V!

Pretty please, R*?

Agreed

[Game2048]

Interesting, but I don't think that this deserves separate topic and such hype

[ViceCity09]

*You're.

Are you a Crystal Palace fan mate?

[HOAXi]

I wonder whether real-time weather effects also mean temperature differences. Could we be getting snow in the mountain tops?

I've yet to play a good driving-game (except truck driving games) where you have good snowstorms with traffic chaos and stuff. Most people don't think about snow when thinking about California, but the truth is there is snow there too, a fair amount of snow actually, but only in mountains and higher places. So it would be great with some snow, maybe just enough to slightly cover the roads and little bit deeper on the very mountain tops.

 

I said I wonder, but I'm not really wondering, because I'm pretty sure we won't get any snow in V. I'm hoping for it though...

Of course, we might get snow on mountain tops.

[VATG]

didn't we knew this already?

 

i'm pretty sure that the parts with the puddles was mentioned by one of the magazines who did the preview a while ago...

@VATG

I don't recall this, therefore it never happened.

They better have next gen engine that fish moves out of your way.

Looks epic, also I hope that "sandstorm returns from SA" but now with HD effects, but I am not worried about that because it's pretty obvious that it will be in the game cause of the desert, would be epic too!

The other way around.

 

Sand storm would look extra cheap and lazy BECAUSE we are in the HD era. On the PS4? Maybe.

 

I highly doubt the PS3 can make a GOOD sand storm. Unless you want some orange fog on your screen which looks out of place with the HD world, that is.

 

 

That out the way, I really hope the can do it. Sand storms are the best but, I do not see’em in GTA V.

[Pregnantplatypus]

Iv had zero consequence when driving.

My futo gt really shines in the rain acctually

I can understand a bit of grip loss on puddles

but I hope its not too exagerated. I some

times slide my Z around corners in the

rain and its pretty managable.

[roebuck34]

aw yiss motha f*ckas both realsitic boob physics and puddle now

[Kung Lao]

the puddles in RDR evaporated far too quickly after the storm had finished. Hopefully in V they stay a bit longer after a storm.

[MosquitoSmasher]

This is interesting. I wonder if those storms will actually cause some objects on the street to float around, thanks to the physics and all. A bit similar to Watch_Dogs in that regard. Cool piece of info this.

[twistedweather]

possible weather effect

torrential or constant rainfall will cause ground to get muddy/puddles form

muddy roads out in the sticks could cause your vehicle, if not suited to the terrain, to get stuck therefore rendering it useless

might need to call franklin. He is bound to know someone with a tow truck.

Trevor has a jeep so he could pull you out of a ditch, etc

That would be fun.

I suggest you play Uncharted 3. There is a multiplayer map where a sandstorm covers the map every 5 minutes or so, and it looks great. You can even see it and hear it approaching.

[suicidehummer]

This is why I can't stand the bitches complaining about the map size. R* focuses on QUALITY not QUANTITY.

 

It's gonna be a f*cking awesome game.

[Cylan]

Here's that we can do heists in the middle of raging thunderstorms for that added 'epic' factor.

[HOAXi]

I like this too, in RDR the mud the rain would create would actually make it slightly harder to walk around. You could feel the difference.

Well if they are going to create mud, wouldn't the possibility to have snow in the game grow ? (hinting to the vehiclelist found in Max Payne files)

Absolutely

Yes it would which is why I think one of the things R* is holding out on is snow. Why else would R* be working on snowplows, snow effects, and chairlifts?

[TripleRob]

I wanna fly into a thunderstorm and jump out.

[gevans81]

This thread makes me yearn for the game even more, Rockstar you teasing bastards.

This!!

 

There is so much bloody detail here and the map aint even that small!!!!!

 

I think the weather will defs impact the driving in the country side- going down a mountain- trying to brk and sh*t just skids all over the place!!!

[Redwood Cigarettes]

Yeah I'm pretty sure none of this info is new too..

 

But hey ho, people seem to be enjoying talking about puddles, so yeah,

I agree that it should be an improved version of what we saw in Red Dead Redemption

[Solarcellular]

one word, DUSTDEVILS!! PLEASE!!

The only reason I am doubting snow is because we have seen Chiliad in the new screenshot and there is no snow on the peak, despite being the tallest point in the game.

[FreeExplorer]

one word, DUSTDEVILS!! PLEASE!!

It would be really awesome.

 

Could be very cool to see how it affects people, things and animals around.
