Deciphering the map icons

Recommended Posts

Here's my guesses for the icons:

 

Some are obvious...

 

orange star badge = police station

blue tennis racket = tennis courts

blue golf flag = golf course

green shirt = clothing store

green scissors = barbershop

green spray can = car shop

green heart = tattoo shop

green gun = AmmuNation

 

 

Some aren't quite as clear, but might be safe to assume...

 

orange six-point badge = hospitals

blue crosshairs = firing range

blue "indian sitter" = yoga

pink heel = strip club

pink camera = movie theatre

 

Some are very much up in the air...

 

Blue "pc" = possibly Publicly traded Companies to invest in...badge is by the rock quarry, wind farm, airport, among many others

black airplane = private airstrip?

orange car with ??? above it = taxi depots?

blue parachute = obviously something to do with jumping out of a plane, but why would they have these all over the city?

purple binoculars =

purple mountain =

purple house with $ = some form of property? seems like way too many to be safehouses...and why wouldn't there be one in Chumash if they were homes for purchase?

 

To me it seems that orange indicates it's a public good (cops, health service, transportation); green are things to customize your character (hair, clothes, tats, car, guns); blue are activities (golf, yoga, exercise, tennis, parachuting, playing the stock market); pink are more related to leisure like watching a movie or making it rain; purple confuses the sh*t out of me in general...no idea how these could be related.

 

Thoughts?

Pretty much confirms only one strip club in the game. Kinda meh. Was really expecting at least 2, one for each county so we have the ghetto girlies in the city and the more white trash girls out in the sticks.

Obviously money deposits

 

 

Not sure if srs.

 

I mean, a money deposit in the middle of the Muffleton (?) Oil Field?

Either that, or businesses that we'll be able to buy. DEFINITELY not houses.

 

Come on now folks, there's one in the middle of Los Santos Airport. Why in the world would anyone buy a house in an airport ?

 

Besides there's none in Paleto Bay/Malibu and other logical locations for a house. Trust me, there's other maps that we haven't seen yet with the houses locations.

NEW THEORY: it has to do with Stocks and businesses that you can f*ck around with.

Good post about the icons. Agreed with almost all.

 

Why the sadness with only 1 strip club?? If you are so interested in seeing flesh then why are you on a GTA forum and not some smut site? I was hopeful of there being a pitch and putt as well as the 18 hole course, but apart from that, I love the look of the map!

Agree. They can't be houses.

Yeah, could be! We'll find out in a week but either way I'm fairly certain they're not houses.

Looks like there is a purple house with $ in Vespucci where Franklin was seen getting the "medicinal" marijuana. Would give credence to the notion that they are places to invest in.

I reckon that orange icons are specific to Trevor, green to franklin and blue to Michael, as those colours feature prominently in relation to them

No.

And I stand corrected. Upon review the blue "pc" is definitely a checkered flag. Thanks, tzatziki.

 

Which means my public traded companies guess is wrong and that the purple $ is likely investing opportunities/business to buy.

Still surprised about the lone strip club theory, not happy or disappointed (I don't really care, never went there in any GTA unless it was for missions), but surprised nonetheless. I wonder if there'll be prostitutes roaming the streets at night time.
