nighttime in Los Santos

I was playing a mission in Hitman Absolution. A nice dark moody alley while it was raining, and at night. All very atmospheric and it got me to think about how i how the nighttime will be similar to this in GTA V in Los Santos. Oh i forgot to mention some very impressive neon lights from nightclubs and stuff too. We've seen very little of the nighttime in GTA V's trailers and screenshots so far. But with an open world like this, there's just so much potential. Hopefully will see some of these dark alleys and just narrow passages with nightclubs and some unsavoury people standing nearby and throwing insults at you. The nights in LC in IV weren't incredibly interesting, but Rockstar pretty much nailed it with TBOGT. The whole nightclub scene was done perfectly. But still, its interesting how little nighttime of LS we've seen so far.

The night time screens/trailer grabs that we have seen have been very interesting and shows that R* has really worked on lighting this time. L.A. is very colorful at night and I can't wait to see it.

Hopefully some of those rich bitch parties will be held outside in their garden, so i can let one of the three dudes ruin that party, lol. Nah i mean more like the people hanging outside of clubs and nightclubs in general, just general streets in the city of LS where bums and such hang around. Be interesting to see what goes on around nighttime in those places where in the gameplay video the lady speaks of urban decay and such. I'm gonna be exploring a lot in the night in LS.

Oh wait, didn't those previewers spoke of Michael during nighttime and lots of impressive neon light effects and stuff? So far the only night stuff we've seen is that one screen where we see the sea and some lightning too and that recent Franklin shot, right? Oh and his trailer and i believe trailer 2 as well, those car lights look a whole lot more realistic than IV, Hmmm...i guess we did see enough nighttime stuff after all.

Personally I'm in it for the street racing. The shine of highly polished metal, the flash of headlights, tinted windows, roaring engines, screeching tires, police lights; the night is our natural habitat.

Yeah, I'm mainly talking about the car headlights at night---it does look realistic! When I saw that my hype bar raised a few levels. But I agree with you, we should've seen more night pic's AND a farming screen. ph34r.gif

I hope that nighttime really changes the city. Different, more dangerous people out on the street. Crazy junkies, roving gangs.

I really hope there are clubs and things in downtown LS with lots of people about

 

And in the ghettos, more gangs on the streets and general crime etc..

Definitely. But especially in areas where it would make sense to see some unfriendly folks hanging around. I really want to see more crimes happen in V anyway. I hope to see more criminal deeds by general pedestrians too. Maybe bring back car thieves from III, maybe have a random ped try to rob you or other peds, things like that.

Nah I didn't like Midnight Club LA, the physics were all wrong (Which is a shame because MC2 and MC3 are some of my favourite games ever). With the advent of car customisation in GTA 5 I'm hoping it will scratch my itch. Franklin seems to be the racing guy, judging from the trailers.

Gonna be awesome, some nighttime driving/chases with Franklin. Cops after him, and you activate his ability and you'll make a sharp corner into some alley...and hopefully that means the line of sight system will do its job, meaning that cops wont know where you are.

Indeed! I still remember the intros of Midnight Club 2 and 3; they were awesome, and I hope GTA 5 can capture some of that atmosphere.

The lighting looks greatly improved. check where the 4x4 is getting chased covered in what looks like the beam from headlights or a choppers searchlight. it looks a lot more dynamic.

Everything's a party with you, eh?

Seriously though, if you could just climb into someones garden and crash their party with a Minigun, that'd be epic.

OOOoohh Yeah! icon14.gifcookie.gif

 

 

Remember that pic that leaked that showed the Monte Carlo-looking car in the curve, with the headlights shining at night? I think there was a yellow sign in the curve. I can't find it---BUT, I always thought that one was real, especially after seeing the first GTA V night screens. The lighting in that pic just looked R*-ish to me and I'm thinking now that it was legit. Anyone remember what pic I'm talkin' about?
