Murad96 Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 (edited) Hank didn't do it that way though, did he? But maybe he will tomorrow, because a preview of the map is getting released on the 30th, at around 5:00pm UK time (go here for info). Here's a preview they showed of the preview (not the actual preview): Edited May 30, 2013 by Murad96 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I know , they could only watch the countryside and the city far distance when Franklin is doing a skydiving . They didn't see the entire countryside.

krammkracker Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 CVG are running WAY behind... we already have nearly 600 pages on the subject and hundreds of user created maps (some so beautiful you have to wonder what these people do for a living) http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=491242&st=0 Snooze alert!

They're attempting to create their own version of the map, yes... similar to the existing ones in the mapping thread. Hopefully this one would look fancy and legit.

Murad96 Posted May 29, 2013 Author Share Posted May 29, 2013 Wait so is cvg actually showing us a map tomorrow? And is it official? Where was this confirmed? Click on YES on the first post. It's their mockup of the map. Not really official but probably the closest thing we'll get to the real thing. They said it's coming out tomorrow (a preview of it I think) at around 5:15 pm UK time.

Kirsty Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Looking forward to this, although I was thinking that I really hope they give a lot of credit to the guys in the Mapping Los Santos thread; such a huge effort was made in there without the fancy tools the media might possess. I noticed this in the YouTube comments though, so it looks like some of the work will be featured. They said in the video to tweet them links, so get busy promoting our topic people GTAVoclock 9 minutes agoWe're aware of the amazing work on GTA forums and will be integrating that into our map. Our version might not be as exhaustive as some of the existing maps, but it should be more fun / innovative, creating a real sense of being in Los Santos *famous last words* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not all of it, but from that height they will have seen a very nice chunk of it. Also they will have seen large areas of the map from when the characters are switched and the camera pulls back over the map. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MosquitoSmasher Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 I wonder if that means CVG has seen the whole map then. Not many previews went into detail about the map, or at all actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
