I want to visit California after hearing about V

After reading so much about V I really want to visit Cali. I have a vacation coming up soon so why not take a trip out west. Anybody else feel this way?

I did back in December. I just happen to be going to LA, though. Still, I got a pretty good idea of what we can expect. And Rockstar totally nailed the SoCal vibe/atmosphere.

Literally thinking about moving there in the next year or two. Just need a plan for when I get there.

Not quite. I've been to L.A once or twice (albiet quite some time ago) and what I do want to do after I play GTAV is go to L.A and see if they've captured the feel of the city just right, even if the trailers already gave us an idea of what to expect. But there is quite a lot more to L.A/California than what's shown in V, and if you do choose to go to California, I hope you have a splendid time. smile.gif

I live in NJ so it is all the way on the other side of the country. I would even know where to begin or what to do first if I did go.

If I move I am coming all the way from Australia. You should have a better idea then me, I may as well be going in with a Blindfold.

I'm on a pseudo vacation here in San Diego for the last month. Resort right on the beach. It's pretty much heaven. Gonna be sad to go to Vegas in two weeks and then off to Miami (it's like my own little GTA summer trip), and finishing up just south of NYC just before GTA V launches.

I live here in So Cal. More "Blaine County" than Los Santos though. I guess it's pretty cool but I'd like to visit a lot of the places YOU guys live.

I live in northern California by Oakland, you should start out by visiting san Francisco a lot of sights to see and ppl from all over the world, then take a trip down the coastline to LA san Diego that's what a lot ppl do

If you're thinking about downtown L.A, to be honest it's not the best. It's dirty, ghetto, and lots of traffic. Though, it does have a lot of things to do, and nice architecture to look at. I just hate going there. California beaches is where it's at.

Having lived most of my in Los Angeles , I really want to go visit NYC after having played GTA 4. Not that I already wanted to visit, but it sparked my interest even more! Also, to anyone from NY, how close did GTA 4 catch the New York vibe?

I live in LA! Despite what some may say, it's actually great here. People are pretty chill and relaxed around here in Southern California. The only you have to get used to is the traffic, and there is PLENTY of it tounge.gif. Please come visit, you will have a great time here.

I lived in CA almost my whole life. I got out last year and I'm glad I did. I wouldn't tell anybody not to visit, since you should see it with your own eyes to judge it, but I can't see myself ever going back. The weather was awful, the allergies were awful, and the landscape was awful. It's so barren and dry for most of the state. It had some good spots, but overall it was not my thing. I'm not upset V is taking place there, though.

I was in LA 2 years ago and all I can say is that I don't like Los Angeles anymore. Everything you see in TV or in films is nothing than a virtual world - only an illusion. It's so damn dirty and criminal there. I'd rather prefer San Diego or San Francisco. Cali has great types of landscapes with lots of differences. So the state by itself is really amazing.

I will hopefully make it to the U.S one day, but I remember how much GTA IV opened up NYC to me in movies and other forms of media. It helped recognize important places of the city.

 

LS will no doubt be the same, but yeah I'd really like to visit in person. smile.gif

I've been all around Europe (I'm from Norway). I've been all around Asia (I live in Thailand). I've been to Northern Africa and South Africa. I'm going to Brazil for the World Cup 2014. It's just USA left that I want to see, and perhaps a little bit more of South America. I got some friends here in Thailand who are from California. They're cool guys. I would love to go to LA and New York. I think though if I travel to LA, the only thing I would recognize from V would be the Hollywood sign a couple of buildings but that's it, or am I wrong?

Norway is in Group E. And the only stronger opponent is Switzerland. Ther others aren't even real competitors in this group, thus I see great chances for Norway being qualified. I have just seen they are going to play today. So good luck!

I'm probably going there as a neutral. I'm hoping they will qualify but even though we're drawn in the easiest group it doesn't look to good to be honest. Very frustrating. It's always something, like little confidence/clumsiness and they freak out or keeper makes a mistake in the last minutes or like now all of our strikers are goal-shy. There's been something hanging over Norwegian football the last 10-15 years. That being said, NFF (Norway's FA) is under pressure and those corrupt f*cks will have to go if we don't qualify. We're mad and we will start protest.

Let's see how it goes against Albania (away) today. We shockingly lost the home match against them last year.

We lose against the easy teams but play good against the best nations. Dunno what's up with that. A funfact is that we're the only nation that have played against Brazil and never lost. W=2/D=2/L=0.

Anyway. I've never been to a World Cup and I grew up watching Brazil's samba-football on TV. I need to go there. My father lives in Maragogi, in north, so I go there visit him too. Maybe I go from there to US, since I'm just a few hours away anyway.

I was the same with IV. I visited New York in 2009. I want to go to Los Angeles now.

It feels like a once in a lifetime opportunity, but we're wasting that great opportunity. We tend to lose against the easiest teams, in every qualification.

We should make it, or I will burn my hair in pure frustration.

From England - went on road trip in an RV from San Fran to New York.

 

Went from San Fran to LA, then Las Vegas (got married) Hired Dodge Viper GTS for day after. Amazing - would recommend to anyone.

 

On a GTA V note - Will the RV Park be in GTA V on the beach - Dockweiler RV Park. Stayed there a few nights

Could be an extra house for Trevor to use while in LA lol.gif
