World of GTA

[Zulu412]

Now, I've never played World of Warcraft, but is that how they're setting GTAO up to be?

That's how they make it sound with the "ever expanding" part. Where as dlc or expansion packs would/could add to your online

world. So R* could release other cities/countries whatever via expansion packs or dlc.

It seems cool, eventually GTA could cover the globe.

 

Is it possible being mainly a console game?

Can they bypass the medium so that all systems are compatible in the same online world?

 

Could GTAO eventually rival WoW?

[BundyNL]

Nope, just because of the leveling system?

 

Maybe because of the expansions, that could be true.

Definitely not, imo. They'll add new content like new missions, new games even. But I don't see them adding new maps as DLC. That's something they would reserve for a brand new game -- considering how time consuming map making (for Rockstar) tends to be.

I wonder who the first person dying from playing the Gta V nonstop for a week will be..

Except, The Benz has already confirmed that they're adding new maps. The older cities are most likely the first choice, according to him.

No.

 

Simple as that. GTA will never rival WoW.

 

I am not a WoW fanboy, I actually hate that game, but I'm being a realist.

 

The thing that keeps people in WoW is the sense of progression, that +1 stat that they crave for so they consistently do raids over and over and over and over again.

 

GTAO will not have this. It won't have these extreme raids, with raid boss' at the end with 40 people. Yeah okay, it'll have a competitive scene because of the Clan stuff, but there's no items or weapons that will give you a TINY advantage over the other players.

 

It won't be like League Of Legends (Hate that game too) where there are rune pages that may or may not give you an advantage of a player of equal skill with different runes.

 

 

 

Yeah, GTAO will definitely be fun, but it will be nothing like WoW, the consistent money influx that Blizzard have from the MILLIONS who subscribe each month allow them to frequently release updates at a high quality while GTAO (currently) does not have this. They only have the initial payment when the game is bought.

 

GTAO is all cosmetic, aside maybe from your cars. Let's be real, for guns... not that much will change.

 

WoW is less about having loads of money and spending it, while GTAO / GTA 5 is.

Where's your source?

[Sentrion]

GTA Online is playing GTA V with extra additions like Maps, Missions, Vehicle Customizations, Side Missions & more. All this is a multiplayer & social club system enchancement attempt.

Where's your source?

 

 

Maybe it won't compete on the same level ad WoW but it'll be close, plus WoW is getting old as GTAO is being born. In time it will become massive, probably start with individual locations you must fly to then fill in the gaps over time until you can drive straight across R*s version of America (and beyond). As they feel things out they'll cater to what fans demand, so if players want stat boost items or rare vehicles they can add that content & make it take forever to earn. At that point it'll be R*'s cash cow.

 

I imagine it'll become persistent too on R* servers, so some day my gang in Carcer city could deal drugs with your crew in Vice City

World of Warcraft? What? How? When?

yea, i meant more in the sense that we're going to start with this 1st GTAO world, but through more expansions it will progressively get bigger. whether that be through dlc or expansion packs whatever.

But SA will be where it all started. WoW started pretty small too.

 

& why couldn't they add a style of +1.

say you could get better at shooting, driving, stealth, swimming, flying, mele, etc.

you could forever be upgrading your character.

 

& they could absolutely do it with weapons (special grips, scopes, camo, stocks, bullets, etc.)

also clothing could give you improvements.

 

rather then quests w/ monster bosses at the end, it could be varying level of heists &

drug lords, gangs & crews & any # of things for bosses

That would be so much fun to have PS4, X-Bone, and PC players all in the sane world together if it could be pulled off. I'm excited about the ever expanding map idea. 10 years from now we could have a GTAO world with the ability to travel between it all. Just think it could take 25 minutes just to drive from Los Santos, through Las Venturas, past Carcer City, to Liberty Cuty on the east coast. They could even make taking a boat or a plane over the ocean take awhile, but still see smuggler's, sealife, and freight ships out there.

 

I can see 10 US cities:

Los Santos - from GTAV

San Fierro - San Francisco

Las Venturas - Las Vegas

New Austin - Texas-style city

Carcer City - Chicago/Detroit

Old Nepolean - New Orleans

Vice City - Miami

Jackson - Atlanta/Montgomery/Charleston

Capitol City - Philedelphia/Washington DC

Liberty City - updated version from GTAIV

 

Around the world I'd like to see these:

Mogadishu

Mumbai

Hochi Minh City

No doubt there'll be plenty of reports in media of the destructive influences that gta5 will bring to the younglings

 

at least in Sweden..

Exactly, those would all be great additions. outside US I'd add:

Niagra Falls

Rio de Janeiro

Mexico City

Tiajuana

Paris

Moscow

Tokyo

 

It could go on forever & each expansion could be a different price based on the size of

the area being added.
