No animals around when Chop is with me.

Hey,

 

Numerous times have I walked and driven through the landscape of Los Santos with Chop, and I have yet to encounter any animal that normally appear when I'm alone (without Chop).

 

I thought it would be fun to see Chop mauling dogs, wolves, cougars etc.

 

Have any of you guys experienced the presence of animals when Chop is with you?

 

 

Thanks in advance :cool:

Another question related to animals... Have you seen them on GTA Online?

Haven't really played online that much, so I gotta give you a big fat no on that one :)

There are other dogs and animals in the game. When driving past one place, I went to a man on his stoop yelling at me. I shot him and was mauled by his dog from behind...

 

Some dogs are also associated with the gangs as in, if you shoot a gang member their dog will attack you..

 

Same for pedestrians who have dogs (and their usually not on their own either, so). If it helps, I saw a man walking near (what was) the Lost hangar.

Please read my post again. I'm very aware that there are animals in the game :p

The animals just don't appear when Chop (Franklin's dog) is with me.

Bump.

 

Maybe R* didn't include this option or maybe it's just a bug that will be fixed in future updates, I don't know.

 

If anyone have any knowledge particular to this thing with the animals being absent when Chop is around, please holla at me.

Nope. I've played a while now and have yet to see as much as a coyote stalking the country roads.

 

My 2 cents: R* decided to save on dev costs and took out the 4 legged animals with any sort of official hunting mini game. Because they correctly theorized there would be sufficient 2 legged animals to provide enough sport and entertainment for the pathological greifers who infest free mode. :lol:

As far as I know they are not in Online. But seeing as how online was just released, it is very possible that they will add them and other features back over time that are not in online right now. I'd rather they start small with online and sort out technical issues and add things into it in a stable way, instead of having everything from animals, to heists, to Liberty City all on launch day. No doubt we will have animals in online eventually.

Sorry to resurrect a six-year-old thread But I'm actually running around right now with chop and cannot seem to find any deer or cougars or coyotes. Do those animals not spawn when chop is around? Thanks

I don't know about with next gen consoles but they definitely don't spawn when Chop's with you on old gen. Sucks. I guess it would've required working out how he'd interact with other animals and they didn't bother or didn't want that for whatever reason.

 

Another question: do cougars or other animals spawn when you're hanging out with another character? I can't remember but thinking about it I find it strange that I have no memory of say, a cougar attacking Michael while I was hanging out with him playing as Trevor. Or do they spawn but only recognise the character you're playing as?

When Chop's there or when you're hanging out with other characters?

 

Also does Chop/other characters interact with any animals in any way? Like can a cougar attack them? Or do animals only recognise the player?

Can't confirm when you hang out but yeah they appear with Chop also in R* Editor if you control animals, unfortunately you can't interact with them.

Right so I guess they only recognise the player. I've never seen a video of Chop with other animals that wasn't modded. Maybe because it's just not very interesting to see since they don't interact then.

yes cougars attack random people if they see. they start screaming like they do when they hear a gun shot. mostly they get killed while trying to run away from it.

edit:at some point in the game you can see a lost mc member kicking a dead cougar near the place trevor killed them in mr philips. ıt is surprising

Interesting. I don't think I've ever seen Chop or a friend character interact with/get attacked by one though. Maybe they're excluded but peds aren't?

Hmm I think cougars are the only animals that don't spawn with Chop... I need to confirm

I know on last gen no other dogs will spawn, not completely sure about other animals as I was mostly on the lookout for cougars and dogs to see if they'd interact. That's just last gen though.

Unfortunately on last gen all animals dissappeared once you hang out with Chop. On current gen cats and dogs spawn too but no interactions with Chop.

Edit: I wonder what happen if I make a dog hostile while Chop is present...
