Idea about fuel being in the game...

Amazing how much you wrote about a feature that nobody wants. Sorry mate, but most people aren't in favor of this idea and nothing is going to convince them otherwise. It's GTA, not a life simulator. sad.gif

 

If they do have fuel, then it SHOULD be optional, probably part of a New Vegas/RDR style "Hardcore Mode".

I've also yet to see someone fill up their car with a smile on their face -.-

Worse for me.. as you can imagine.. whatsthat.gif

OT: Why do these kidy-winkles want fuel in-game... I'd love to see there face once they can drive & put fuel in for the first time lol.gif

The fact some posters often forget about GTA - It's not a realistic game at all! tounge.gif

 

I can understand gas stations in Mafia 2 or even any RPG game but GTA universe looks totally different and most people play this game due to no realistic bull sh*t found!..

 

Still if Gas Stations are to be a part of GTA than make it inclusive with a feature where cars never run of fuel except damage or shot at with leakage. In the end, it's of no use and waste of time tounge.gif

I can see that most of you, it seems, didn't even read any of these ideas. TOO LONG, DIDN't READ!. Understandable.

 

MY POINT IS:

 

Basically, a fuel system doesn't have to be JUST a f*cking bar on the screen that tells you how long you have before your vehicle becomes USELESS, there are TONS of potential functionality and ways to make money, ways to add fresh activities and minigames and heists and jnos.

Off topic, you sure did miss an opportunity with your username. Instead of NudasPriest, you could have used NudistPriest! biggrin.gif

That's the point, mate. It's supposed to look like that band name or Judas himself but is supposed to SOUND like Nudist.

To those who hate or just find it stupid, the idea of fuel/petrol being in the game I have to say I don't think you have fully considered the possibilities if it wasn't half-assed like it would be in any other game these days.

Well f*ck me softly I lost interest right there. tounge2.gif

This topic has been done to death and I aint reading all that sh*t you wrote.

I simply don't want this in the game and doubt it will be so there really isn't anything to discuss. Nothing you have said in that long ass post will change my opinion.

By the way, this sh*t hasn't been done to death, I honestly haven't seen most of these ideas anywhere.

 

The point is, you should have actually read the OP.

The only fun I have had fueling a car IRL is the work car. Trying to break the $200 mark.

Doesn't worry me because it's not my money.

 

If Fuel was in GTA, I wouldn't mind as long as teh consumption wasn't too fast.

 

My real life car can drive 8 hours straight without refueling.

My work car can drive over 21 hours straight without refueling.

Wouldn't mind if GTA had consumption that you could drive across the map 10+ times before the car ran out of fuel. That's more than enough since this map is supposed to be huge.

Not a big fan of gas in game but your ideas were GREAT. Someone said this is less annoying than the zombie threads. But if they add an actual zombie survival dlc then id say fuel would be perfect for that...NOW imagine getting stranded in the countryside with no gas devil.gif plus they are the 2 most "overly" talked about and would kill 2 birds with 1 stone

hm, if GTA Online turns out to be a MMO, it could be funny to see players lining up at a gas station and throw a grenade in... ph34r.gif

 

 

But seriously, as much as I'm all for realism, I think being forced to fill your tank would be a little bit too much.

Could be fun for a couple of hours, but at some point it could turn into an annoying feature, even if tanks can be filled up within seconds.

I read your thread, and I think it's a good idea!

I'm not saying GTA should defo have fuel in it... but the fact that some people can't open their minds and see the potential that it could bring is quite funny.

 

Maybe Rockstar should take out vehicle damage, punctures and ammo?

 

Before it was included I bet the idea that vehicles could be damaged and become un-drivable was thought as being silly... Guns that run out of ammo... I can hear you all now saying "NO WHEN I GET A GUN I WANT TO HAVE IT AND AMMO FOREVER... PUNCTURES??? I DONT WANT PUNCTURES, IT'S STUPID... I SPENT ALL THIS TIME GETTING A CAR AND I CAN GET PUNCTURES AND THE VEHICLES CAN BE DAMAGED... I DONT WANT THAT... ITS STUPID"...

I read all your ideas. Good idea for mods, but not the base game. I just don't want it to be forced on me.

Fuel will not work in gta games it's boring unnecessary. So what you're going to have fun having to go and fill up everytime?

 

Remember the hunger thing in San Andreas!

 

This is gta, it's about stealing cars. Why do you even think about filling up with fuel when there's like cars driving everywhere? Just steal that ped's ride and don't give me that 'I feel bad for stealing from a ped' don't be such a pansy. If you feel bad about doing that then I'm sorry, gta isn't for you, pansy boy.

Most people probably did read it, but you're not gonna convince people who just don't want a fueling system. You think people just don't have any imagination, but people know what a fueling system would mean for GTA(negative & positive).

 

We know why people want it and it's not just because we think you want "a f*cking bar on the screen that tells you how long you have before your vehicle becomes USELESS".

 

Most people just don't want to deal with a new unwanted feature, even if it creates some new type of gameplay. The discussion starts and ends with the FUELING SYSTEM, not the type of gameplay that comes from it. You could use the same type of argument for why it could be fun if the protagonists needed to take a sh*t once a day. You could talk about all the things you could do with sh*t in the game, but it will still mean you NEED to take a sh*t once a day. I know fueling probably wouldn't be once a day, but my point is you would NEED to refuel occasionally.

 

It's okay if you want it, but most people don't and the people who matter will never put it into GTA.

I suppose we have got unlimited ammo in the sense that it is available on every single street so why change unlimited fuel.

 

If ammo wasn't available on every street and we had to go to ammunation/crib/friends to re-fill ammo then people would've moaned too.

 

I can see both sides of the tale.

 

If it did come to GTA then it should be an OPTION.

 

I do think its funny that people will accept things like car punctures and car damage but the fuel idea is alien to them. Before car damage was in the game, hands down (100 percent) I reckon people knocked the idea... "I've got a car and it should last forever and not take damage and/or get decreased performance because where is the fun in that?"

You can make a car last forever if you want. People keep using that horrible example, but it doesn't really apply. Unless you think a car just gets damaged over time no matter how you drive it? dontgetit.gif

 

And you're wrong(100 percent) about people when it comes to car damage. Part of the fun is to avoid taking damage by being a good driver. How would you avoid losing fuel while you drive? What technique would you use while driving to keep your fuel at the same level at all times?

Your vehicle will blow up before you use a tank of gas.

If that is how you've interpreted what I said then that's fine but that is not what I meant. I would normally re-word it but I can't be bothered.

This topic really didn't bring anything new to the fuel debate. If anything it made it less appealing.

Yeah, I guess I missed the deeper meaning in your post, but fair enough. wink.gif

Mafia 2 had a fuel system, where you could purchase gas, cars could explode if you shot the gas tank, but i don't know if some cars used more gas or had larger tanks. It shows that a fuel system could be implemented.
