Soo given the dashboard or cockpit cam is for real...it says working guages, light controls....and "more"...could the more part mean maybe fuel guages that work? ? Maybe like that game mafia? What do you think

I don't even know what your talking about? Abbreviate on dashboard, cockpit, working gauges and MORE light controls? Where is this information from and what's it about? I know it's about cars but?

It would add the extra bit of excitement to rolling down the highway from a free roam battle and sputtering out of gas forcing you to fight. It could be cool, if properly optimized.

check the forums there was a thread about cockpit camera mode or dashboard camera as some call it and it was apparently a leak from rockstar website and beleived to be true, so if its true, it stated the the things I said and added "and more" at the end.... so im jus thinking IF its true then what could be classified as "more". So im saying fuel perhaps??

this. Could be fun.. they have to make gas cheap, and tanks last hella long, upgradeable tanks perhaps? could give us reasons to cause gas station explosions lol

But a lot of vehicles use recycled textures from GTA IV don't they?

 

A lot of the camera views will be of poor quality, unless R* actually go through the trouble of redesigning them all (if they do... GIVE ME A JB700 WITHOUT GUNS FOR Fu*K SAKE!!!)

I can't see that working unless you got a full tank upon garage entry. All the gas stations would be like the ls customs in the middle of town.

Yeah maybe make it similar to damage, if u get in a garage or have it delivered it will be on full..it would be cool for the role players though

It's a driving game, not a walking game. No one wants to walk 20 miles to a gas station to fill up a can, and lug it all the way back to their car in Sandy Shores.

 

Besides, the cars don't have gas caps.

I remember the days one couldnt swim in gta.......given your perspective one could have easily said its a shooting game not a swimming simulator..lol

I see manual shifting gear is much more likely than gas running out on current gen

I think we will see what is currently in single player, that is vehicles leaking petrol when shot in the fuel tank. Your car runs out of fuel pretty quickly.

I would be all for this. Random amounts of fuel when you jack npc cars, thinking,"should I stop and fuel up before I rob that store?" This would be way cool IMO. Also (on a completely unrelated subject that just came to me) get rid of mobile banking. Give ATMs a use!

now if that woud be implemented, it woud be one damn evil assclown joke :)

just imagen needing to go to the gass station :D

and then paying for gass :lol:

omg, imagen if there were several types and the best gass that woud take youre car further and faster woud be 10 times more expensive then the cheapest one :lol:

the return of the cashcard, stronger then ever before :D

also can you imagen what a nightmare the impound woud be if the tank was empty :)

not even to mention youre ingame garage if they somehow dont implement cars being automaticly tanked when put into storage

LMAO !

It's not something they have to do. (or even should do, perhaps)

 

But I wouldn't mind it. It's also pretty cool when you consider it would give the Jerry Can a second purpose, if you're out in the middle of nowhere and run out of gas. :)

 

Then again, I guess the jerry can would make gas stations pointless to visit (unless you also have to restock your snacks)... in much the same way that there's no reason to visit atm's when you can just bank your cash through the phone. Unless the can only fueled your car enough to get to a station..?

 

Anyway, like I said, I actually wouldn't mind this mechanic being implemented, but I can obviously see how it would be a hassle and that most players would hate it.

I think that was a glitch that they fixed. It wasn't like they added swimming later on.

 

Constantly running out of gas would seriously impede the game. Yes, infinite fuel is unrealistic, but so is the game gravity. These are things that make the game fun. Having to push your car 10 miles to the gas station isn't fun.

Imagine the 12 year olds bombing every gas station in the city just to inconvenience those with an empty tank. Also, work on your spelling and grammar.

Every GTA release I see this topic.

 

Every time my response is the same.

 

100% f*ck no...unless it is optional

 

That being said my stance has always been based off single player. It could *possibly* be less annoying online simply because of how fast paced it is.

I'd just nuke my car and call mors for a replacement with a full tank.

While we're at it, I'm curious as to how the functional gauges are going to be.

 

Something tells me they're going to have only a few different dash types shared among the classes of cars. I can't see them putting the effort in to retain all the unique car dashboards that are already in the game and have them function properly. Especially when they do things like having every car in the game have a clutch pedal when so many of them have a clearly automatic transmission shifter.

 

As it is in the current game, even though the textures aren't very high resolution, the Phoenix (for example) actually has the real Pontiac "rally gauge cluster" that were in 70's Trans Am's (as well as '73 GTO's) complete with the vertical tachometer / clock gauge. I bet you anything the upgraded working dash for it won't have that cluster... since it's lifted straight out of the real car with no modification to the texture.
