GTA fans shouldn't have to beg for more cities

I've been seeing a lot of fans demanding for a second prominent city in GTa V. And I'm not talking about some hick towns surrounded by wilderness, I mean real genuine cities based on real life places like how San Andreas had SF and LV to compliment the main character's home base. But it got me thinking, why do we have to beg or ask for more cities in 2013? Shouldn't this be a given? Wouldn't you assume that after San Andreas that Rockstar would have been smart enough on their own to start realizing that they need to start including as many cities as possible for future games? This one city sh*t doesn't cut it anymore, sorry this is 2013. There are so many cities in the US that you cant make a gta for them all, the only option is to INCLUDE MORE cities within each gta.

 

San Andreas came out in 2004 on an old system, the original XBOX and had 3 big cities. This game is almost ten years old, with a better map than gta 4 and looks like it'll be a better map than gta 5 too. HOW????? Come on man, why are we going backwards with maps? You've gotta improve this sh*t, not take steps backwards. Fans shouldn't have to ask for sh*t that we had on a 10 year old game, it should be the standard now. NO ONE could have ever thought back in 2004 when san andreas came out with 3 cities that we'd be begging Rockstar to at least attempt similar maps 10 years later. Shiiiiit devil.gif

Because HD games are much more detailed and require a lot more work.

San andreas had 3 SMALL cities, I bet that gtav los santos is bigger than all 3 of them cities combined.

 

 

Retarded logic is retarded.

 

 

Its the biggest map rockstar have created, how the f*ck can you say their going backwards?

Why does "more cities=more fun"? I clocked way more hours playing IV than SA.

Got drink your milk and go to sleep kid.

 

Do you even have any kind of clue in that big head of yours how much work goes into ONE city. Let alone two or more. Do you know how much creativity goes into designing the city, the missions, the story to all fit in with the city. Do you have any idea what the hell you are talking about. Go cry to your momma.

That is no excuse. Production teams are much bigger aswell and have much more resourcefull studious.

tl;dr, but:

I do not want a second city. I would be annoyed if there is one.

 

Now you can kill me because I bet I am a minority wink.gif

Because it would be impossible. To make three huge detailed cities, along with the huge countryside we have just wouldn't work. There might be San Diego, or maybe some smaller town hidden in the countryside, and we still have Las Puertas, but LOS SANTOS IS THE ONLY MAJOR CITY. Rockstar has stated this many times, it's pretty clear now... At first I had hope, but now it's just pretty obvious.

So many people want more cities and more map but then complain when missions are too long like photo opp from SA. So rockstar creates 3 characters so you can switch to whichever one has to do the least so the computer does all the work for you.

GTA V is closer to the Xbox 360/PS3's end of life than GTA: SA was to the PS2 and Xbox's. GTA V pushes the consoles to their limit as it is, and they just couldn't handle those additions to a map.

 

Other reasons:

LS and the surrounding countryside is R*'s vision, and the other cities aren't necessary.

 

A single, huge city with huge surroundings and high detail is far better than 3 cities.

 

SA ran on RenderWare, a simpler engine. In 2004, the models, sounds and textures of the game were far less detailed, allowing a higher quantity of cities on a DVD. Since we're still partly using DVD instead of Blu-ray, we're limited by the same size as we had in 2004, but for a 2013 game.

 

 

 

 

There is NO reason to have three cities. People only bitch about it because they think quantity is better than quality, which couldn't be further from the truth.

In the 3D era the GTA franchise has only had one game with multiple cities. It's not a "thing", or a standard in the franchise. It's all about a detailed open world, and that's what each GTA game has delivered and will likely continue with GTA V.

Yeah, because clearly after five years of development this game's going to be lacking.

Fans, and you in particular, should stop bitching about it. You havent even played the damn game yet, how do you know one city isnt enough? how do you know the size of the city isnt big? Fans like this beg for more cities because they dont like change. The game isnt the same as the last 5 installments? HERESY! play the game before you judge it, then your point might be valid.

I am not begging Rockstar to add more cities... Not at all..

 

I'd much rather they focus on ONE CITY, than make three smaller, sub-par "cities".

R* said that they weren't happy with the cities of SA, which was, and now im quoting, "Parodies" of the real cities. I'd much rather have one big, city which more accurately represents it's real life counter part than 2-3 small parodies.

This is why we can't have nice things.

 

R* has been working on this game forever it seems. What they've shown, it looks amazing. Yet people always bitch and moan.

 

I'll be happy with GTA V's Los Santos and any Hick towns over, SA's all right cities and not so great hick towns. And I love SA.

ill-thoughts

i said this before and ill say it again, if i decide Not to buy GTA5, itll be for its lack of Venturas.....Rockstar has made enough LA games and im just tired of the turf at this point.

 

i Personally wish they had made GTA5 a Las Venturas game only and made it as accurate to Vegas as possible with every casino enterable, every house enterable and tons of activities inside the city and surrounding it.
