falcomilvus Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 I think this rural airstrip debate is worthy of being posted in the LS mapping thread: http://gtaforums.com/topic/491242-mapping-los-santos-buildinglandmark-analysis/page-806 Yeah man you can do it again, we discussed it about 10 mins after the leak most people seemed to agree it was logical and worked for the location of a based cropduster/small dirt strip. If some of these guys cant see that then thats fine with me they can speculate for another week.. no worries lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zparry Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 There are 4 but not the one you circled. Lose the one at the docks and then go up to grapeseed and circle the dirt strip. One international airport. One local airfield. One Military base. One dirt strip. so far... Can you circle that for me? I cannot find it hehe Sure man.. I think you and the OP have problems telling the difference between straight roads and plane runways. Yeah we can purchase straight dirt roads in the middle of nowhere leading from one end of a field to the other.. only dirt road for sale on the map. aye carumba Man ...Everything with that mark is an airstrip, and it can't be a house because pff, we're all just buying the roads. MAN THERE'S LIKE 40 f*ckING AIRPORTS! AMIRITE!? I have no idea what the hell you're trying to say. I'm pretty sure it's a failed attempt at sarcasm. He thinks there is a giant brown road in the middle of a field 3 times the thickness of any other for no apparent reason.. defies logic tbh lol.. ah well. Oh ya...makes total sense.

IAMTHEARMAGEDON Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Would you please stop with those leaked map images for once, please?! Its not allowed to post leaked stuff here! I wish people would read the rules! Actually the Deffpony guy said that the map is all good until R* says take it down, so read the rules.

killahmatic Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 (edited) You guys know that you can see that area in this photo, right? Its a farming area, which would make sense to have a dirt runway, where the cropduster would take off.

ajrunke Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Would you please stop with those leaked map images for once, please?! Its not allowed to post leaked stuff here! I wish people would read the rules! We are allowed to post the map around, rockstar told the fan sites its ok to share it...I think. In that case it changed fast! By the time i posted here last time (like an hour or so ago...) i read that the map is leaked and R* asked admins to remove it...Shut up everyone i didn't know that this was allowed to post for a God's sake! After all that was all YOU, who bitched and were moaning to stop spoiling leaked maps for everyone! So shut the hell up and take a chill pill! That's why we let the mods do their jobs. On topic, there appears to be 3 airports. The 4th one you circled as others have stated, is part of the harbor. Side note: I doubt the veracity of the "leaked" map. I mean, it is IDENTICAL to the fan mad "Mapping Los Santos" map. I HIGHLY doubt the proportions would have been identical. So, in my humble opinion, I still say we don't know how many airports there are because I doubt the leaked map is real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're seriously pulling that straight out of your ass dude. There are dozens of other dirt roads that would make better runways, and you chose the 5 ft one that doesn't have an airport marker on it ...In the strategy guide, and you're saying I'm the one that defies logic?

Deffpony Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Any screenshots to confirm this airstrip? My whole take on the situation is that we really need to think about why airports are important. The only real reason to have an airport is so we can store and access aircraft. Obviously we wont be able to do this at Fort Zancudo(or maybe?) and that would mean there is no airport to the farthest north region of the map. Now hopefully, much like GTA IV, there are a few miscelanious places where aircraft will spawn on the outer edges of the map, specifically the northern edge. If this is the case then things will be fine. Most people dont actually land their aircraft, they just bail. And even the ones we purchase will be able to get insured so as long as there is a place to access aircraft to the north, we should be good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks, but that doesnt reallly look like an air strip. Grapeseed is a farming community, its probably originally a short dirt strip for the cropduster. not really sure what else that line would represent. Fully Agree with you. From the previous reviews we know that Grapeseed has a cropduster. Its only logical that they have an airstrip close by for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What would you call flying really close to the ground and aiming for the nearest building and jumping out without a parachute to watch an awesome explosion then a quick failed attempt at improvisation?

Ha...I call that every landing I've done in the Hydra! Better than a building ahead, an incline..like the east end of the Verdant Meadows air strip. Whoosh! Boom..bah bah booom...

Morto Matrix Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 3 airports. That runway thing is just a dock, trust me, I have been on plenty of ships. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnocchi Flip Flops Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 4 airports dude? That area you circled to the right of the main airport ISN'T a runway it's a damn port. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrSQUADKINGS Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I agree that its 4 airports. not the one pointed out on the docks, but this one!!! this is the smal privat one. the purple $ icon indicate that you can buy the cabin right next to it were you also get the dirt runway and hangar, for youre privat planes. feks. Cuban800 on the bottom picture. thats also the reason why theres no plane icon ot it cause its so smal, and its you privat spot. proove me if im wrong. you can also see here. the ground is Dirt. just like the runway falcomilvus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morto Matrix Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Yeah, I guess it would make sense that the dirt runway is the only purchasable/player owned one. The others are civilian/military. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Realistic Steak Cult Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 So airport next to another airport? Seems logical. Back to the drawing board. Your map needs more airports that are next to one another. Well if you look closely, you might notice that Flooded Liberty City has two airports next to each other. Flooded airport and LC original airport. I was thinking about everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falcomilvus Posted September 12, 2013 Share Posted September 12, 2013 The airport looks gorgeous and detailed from that lamers leaks and the plane seems to take ages to takeoff. Both pluses. Sounds like a proper jet engine this time also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
