cuoreviola89 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 (edited) Hope police will keep staying in contact with their radios also when you'll be far from them. Since now there's not a big circle to run off anymore, the mechanics will be necessarily completely different. Probably the more wanted stars you have, the more time they'll look for you all around. Otherwise it'd be too easy to escape hiding in a sidestreet after you got far enough from them..let them go..bye. This could be ok when you have 1 or 2 stars, but from 3 to 5 even after 5 minutes you have run away, if a random police guy spots you, you should get the stars back. PS: This time there is also the "noise" factor to influence a lot the "research by foot" parts when you get stuck in a blind alley and they know you are there hidden somewhere! Maybe we can pick up some random object and throw it far to distract them and run when unseen (like in The Last of Us). Can't wait to check how all this will work!

topdownshooter Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 It seemed like in IV that everytime I was about to get out of the circle another cop would spawn right in front of me. This new line of sight system sounds awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickstemoeilijk Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I just watched the online gameplay trailer ( ) again and looked at the small segments where they were being pursued (1:02 & 1:16)... It just makes no sense from those bits... The whole area is flashing on the HUD map and I see neither cones or circles? Anyone thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seVensantos Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 it was also said that peds who spot you when youre wanted will try 2 snap pics of you on their phone & call police. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killahmatic Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 From what it sounds, there is a line-of-sight rather than a circle. Dont know if has actually been confirmed by R* but ideally thats the way it would work. I want to be able to hide from police this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GUCCI_MANE_PIZZA_PARTY Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 IV had a line of sight too. I've hid behind small walls and in alley ways behind dumpsters, and the police would drive right past me when the star(s) were faded. Not sure why everyone is going crazy over this.. The cone vision thing seems cool though That's not how GTA 4 worked, pal.Oh, okay. I must have a magical copy of GTA IV that allows me to hide from the police when the wanted stars fade. I've done it plenty of times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savagemessiah Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Well you can actually hide from the police in IV, I always do it when I want to mess with them. However, hiding doesn't mean that they will go away. I was hiding in one of those small buildings on construction sites, and the cops couldn't find me, but they walked around for hours looking fo me ( I took pauses, turning on the tv for a few hours and when I got back to the game they were still looking for me) It would be great if we could actually hide and loose them after a while and I really hope stealth work alot better in this game, letting you sit in some bushes with a supressed m9, taking out the cops, one by one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jogy Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I wonder if cops will follow you into the woods. I mean its pitch black out there. With wild animals and all. Real risky. Kinda cool thinking about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probabily there's not sight cones because they've already spotted him and they're chasing him from a very small distance. Maybe the sight thing is active when the actually can't find you, or when you're far enough to be able to hide succesfully Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ed84 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 The police wont have those magic powers but remember that this time actual residents will be abale to call the police if you are doing something and they can take cell pictures. As long as you are not commiting crimes as you are getting away, so people aren't calling the police, I think you would be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stee_vo Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 So i am replaying some of Niko's missions where you have to check out three vans, and one contains televisions. I stole the van and shot those dudes up, making the cops angry at me. It took annoyingly long to get out of that circle on the map, and when i finally did...good lord..one freaking cop car came to close and spotted me. Very frustrating. In V it will be all about that line of sight system, right? So if i am being chased, but i go into an alley by foot or in-car and their 'cone' didn't see me go there, my wanted star will soon just vanish again? Dude, i just did the same mission and thought the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ola441 Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 It is MUCH better this time around. It has been confirmed multiple times all over the net from different sources that the police each have their own Metal Gear Solid cone of vision. If you are in this cone of vision they will detect you, but you can still break line of sight and hide behind buildings etc. Significantly improved from GTA IV's retarded circle. Which, was a significant improvement over 3D era GTAs not even telling you how to evade cops. c Can you post link of mgs style please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fidzy Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 However annoying GTA IV was for cops, it was always better than the other ones where anything past a 2 star level is impossible to get rid of without hitting the pay n spray or wanted stars.

So... Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 I wonder if cops will follow you into the woods. I mean its pitch black out there. With wild animals and all. Real risky. Kinda cool thinking about it. And that they will be using flashlights. So you'll see those beams of light looking for you. Kinda creepy too.
