The Multiple TOWNS Argument

[Isuck100%]

When I saw the shape of the map that was shown in the gameplay and a reply in the Mapping Los Santos topic, I thought in the San Diego's shape. LOOK at these images.

No.

 

As has already been explained in the mapping thread the contours are exactly the same as in Fido's map. What you marked as San Diego is actually a mountain range east of Mount Alamo plus the bay where you can find the lighthouse. Fido's map isn't completely to scale but the contours are actually the same. And no, it doesn't mean the map is "bigger", it is just the scaling that isn't exact but it won't really change much, if anything at all.

Stop trolling. There is nothing, absolutely nothing about glory hole on the BAWSAQ. What you can see of the stock exchange in the gameplay trailer is in alphabetical order and the last stock is CRE Crevis.

I highly doubt that any part of the map (it being an island) is in anyway geographically

correct as far as coast lines or shape in general compared to real life california goes

Not to mention the map of the San Diego area is upside down... Unless San Diego is on the east coast now.

I knew san delgado was in the game. Try to find analheim.

 

 

AND BTW FOR ANYONE WHO DOESNT BELIEVE ME. YOU CAN BUY GLORY HOLE STOCKS AT THE BAWSAW WEBSITE. LOOK IT UP

you know what the worst part is? you arent even a good troll

Where the hell did you get that map outline from?

[kjacked]

they should change the name of this thread to amateur trolling

[zuckmeslow]

Im not trolling. Like i said before. I dont believe there is another city anymore. But a suburbian town to the north. Like a brand new town but suburb with a couple of stores and things like that

Paletto is a working bay area. Im talking about a town where people go to work.

I really hope...

We will see that soon.

Knowing Rockstar, it would not surprise me at all if they secretly included two other cities in game for us to find out on our own. I don't really have any logical reasons to provide, other than I feel like it's something I could see Rockstar doing.

 

In your post, you mentioned that it's not called GTA: Los Santos... that's because every time GTA updates their engine, they number the game. But if they keep the engine, but change the setting (3, VC, SA), they won't number it. I think everyone knows that at this point.

 

I just feel like since Rockstar has spent nearly 6 years on this game, the game should include more than a large, detailed city and an even larger detailed countryside... I feel like 5.5 years is more than enough to create 3 cities - especially since a lot of the mechanics and engine capabilities were ported/borrowed from Max Payne 3 reducing all of the tedious tasks involved with that...

 

Maybe Rockstar feels so confident that everyone will get the game anyways, that they decided to keep it as a surprise? Or would that be too risky for them? It's anyone's guess...

 

 

Either way, I'm not holding my breath for anything. I'm more than satisfied with what we've been told we're getting. If they do decide to add/surprise us with a lot more, that would be very nice, too.

[kjacked]

not gonna happen guys. what percentage does liberty city take up of the map? 25-30% roughly? throw in two more cities and you have 75-90% of the map being urban area and 10-25% of the map as countryside? look at all the countryside we have seen. there is no way they are hiding even one other city let alone two. there will be a few small towns and villages as rockstar has stated, but no more cities which they also already stated numerous times.

[zuckmeslow]

A ghost town would be great

[kjacked]

A ghost town would be great

i can agree with that. kinda like the ghost town in rdr. id love to see more "random happenings" taking place in gta v. even more than rdr. ill keep my fingers crossed

[Grandtheftauto6969]

technically gta iv had 2 cities, newark (alderney city) and New york city (liberty city) . so we might see los puerta (san diego) too.

Yea but rockstar messed up nyc and made everything small and no countryside. They could have included westchester county and parts of bear mountain but they didnt. Hopefully the country in v is enough an we wont need anither city

[Grandtheftauto6969]

wHAT THES POint of being able to fly a huge passenger jet, you cant land it on the airstrip near sandy shores.

I think your absolutely right! And I think the main reason they haven't told us yet is because it gives los santos special attention of its own, especially by telling people that it s the most detailed city ever created. If they revealed the other cities, then people would be worried about them not being detailed enough. By focusing on one city, people are expecting it to be very detailed.

[agent00729]

Exactly. If they give us big planes to fly in it only makes sense to provide destinations worth flying to. Large passenger planes land at large airports. That's the way it is in real life and that is what is most fun in game.

[Grandtheftauto6969]

guys, remember SAINTS ROW THE THIRD? you could only fly a lear jet ( the biggest CONTROLLABLE plane ) and you could only land it at Wesley Cutter Airport, there were other planes but they wernt controllable, thats what i fear might happen it gta v, a slap in the face where theres controllable and non controllable planes

True, but it appears that rockstar wants planes to be an important feature in V. They said this:

 

“The city was simply too small for effective and enjoyable flying,” says the publisher when asked why planes weren’t in GTA IV.

 

“It was the first time we made a high definition open world, and it was a massive amount of work to make something on that scale – we simply could not make an environment big enough for planes to work properly.”

 

“Fear not, they are returning in what is our biggest open world game to date.”

 

They wouldn't say this and get people's hopes up if they didn't plan on being able to fly large planes.

you guys kill me with your double posting and desperate need for a second city. it wont happen. i may not be the first one on the long list of people to say i told you so, but ill definitely be in after the game is released to say exactly that.

[zuckmeslow]

Yo can you guys do me a favor, you all saw my maps and diagrams that i did for over 10 pages trying to prove another city. Well can you people put me in a vote at the gta forum awards thread http://www.gtaforums.com/index.php?showtopic=571044

 

If you believe in analheim can you put in a vote for best idea and if you dont can you put in a vote for worst idea. I just want to be remembered as the guy who wanted analheim in the game.

[ChatterBoxFM]

I hope you don't really think a GTA parody of Anaheim would be called "Analheim". R* wouldn't simply add an "L". It's not very clever.

[josephene123]

Just weird.

[zuckmeslow]

then vote worst idea.

[kjacked]

can anybody that still believes in a second city, or even a third, or anything more than los santos city wise explain to me why you choose to ignore the overwhelming evidence of no other cities? on top of the fact that rockstar has reminded us countless times that there will be no other cities in gta v? this isnt like properties... when they changed them they told us they were in. someone here at gta forums emails rockstar mouthouff every week and they always reply that los santos is the only city in gta v. no other cities will be in. why do you people choose to ignore this? and how will you react when the game is released and there is in fact no other cities?

Hey if there's another city, Rockstar has done a great job hiding it from us. If there isn't , it's fine. The game will be great. It just astonishes me how people think they are the developers of the game and know how the map looks already. September 17th, us "Gamers" will know how the map looks and whether or not a city was hidden from us.
