Should we have earthquakes in Los Santos?

[AboveAndBeyoncé]

I want to know if we should? And what would the effects be? But the bigger question is how it would be implemented in gta?

So thoughts about this?

[SirFiras47]

Could we f*cking not?

[AboveAndBeyoncé]

Could we f*cking not?

What? Why not?

[Duality Scarlet]

Maybe we'll see this in the new consoles/PC.

 

On PS3/360? Nah, console limitations.

[-Jacking-]

I also had this idea. Why not set up some natural disasters in a future update? I've seen a lot of videos about the tsunami in Los Santos. I think it might be nice to add earthquakes, tornadoes, intense lightning, hurricane, etc..

[Starscream_910]

I think natural disasters of any kind would be an awesome edition- tsunamis, hurricanes, torrential rains, earthquakes etc.

 

Maybe something we can look forward to in next gen, but somehow I doubt it.

Because why in the first place? If you expect some destruction it won't happen because of reasons, if you expect the screen to shake for few seconds then well, I have nothing to say except that this would be an annoying feature

[iBUCKEYE]

Yes. We need more stuff like that. Natural disasters/events would be amazing. Hopefully with the new Gen consoles they'll try to do more of that.

[5.7]

No.

[PowerKracker]

Upcoming GTAO expansion pack 6 years after release GTA Online: Cataclysm.

Earthquake happens, part of LS sinks to the bottom to the ocean, part becomes an island turned into a penal colony. Missions include Escape from LS.

[dudclub55]

Nah.

The RAGE engine isn't capable of the large-scale destruction you'd see on a game running the Frostbite engine afaik.

[CarimboHanky]

mmm this would only make sense if we have access to bawsaq online...

 

the stock market normally react to stuff like natural disasters. having something big happen in LS, it could cause some stocks to tumble and other to rise.

 

without stock market, i dont see how having natural disasters would make any difference in the game.

[CrazyRay]

 

Could we f*cking not?

What? Why not?Because they're not even a yearly occurrence

[smokingndriving]

A quake would seem more annoying than anything, but would love to scramble out of the way of a tornado or try to speed away from a tsunami.

[garvdart]

We already have them, the grenade, sticky bomb, grenade launcher,lazer, tank, buzzard and Rpg on the Richter scale.

[Crimie]

Hmmm that US government superweapon that the boys heist from Merryweather in the single player placed along the San Andreas faultline would cause a nice earthquake dont you think.....wouldnt that be terrible

[Testarossa]

-Camera would shake

-Player would be difficult to control

-Smoke coming out from rooftops, etc.

-Pedestrians panic

[DarkSavageDeathlyCloud]

no....

But...why...this.......

WHY !??

[SpidersWeb]

The problem with natural disasters is for the average person to notice them, they'd have to occur too frequently to be believable.

Not to mention the game dealing with any damages.

[Luuk']

Earthquakes could give sick stunt jumps, like jumping from higher ground to collapsed ground, or between 2 collapsing buildings.

[Not A Nice Person]

Would be realistic seeing as the real life California has a lot of earthquakes.

lol, Someone doesn't do their research.

There can be a special lobby for this, Just stay out of it.

[iTz-JoNeSy]

I think so. Would be pretty cool... could be annoying though if it happened a lot.

Um, besides the entire f*cking environment changing?

[AndyC-M]

no thanks.

[JON22]

Way ahead of you OP. While messing with a solo gate launch glitch I found at the Vinewood Radio tower gates (not on Youtube), my car randomly got stuck in the gate and shook about. If you get in it looks like an earthquake on the inside view. I'd show you but....nah!

[SpidersWeb]

I'm not sure what the quakes in Cali are like, but I know here it wasn't like sitting on a vibrator - e.g. no "shakey vision".

But balance is easy to lose, and you can see large objects in the distance swaying (in combination with your own swaying), and you end up riding the door frame as if it was an angry horse.

[J's Bonds]

No.

 

In real life, earthquakes rarely happen in Los Angeles. It's Northern California that experiences earthquakes mores regularly.
