funmw2 leaks & speculation thread

[Alec Skorpio]

Did people forget that they reused a LOT of shooting animations from Max Payne 3?

 

Who cares? Yacht is still cool

[KageOni]

This may be a dumb questions, but does anyone know if you can control the yacht?

 

In gta 4 we used to play a game where you had to get the tug from the center of one of the channels to your end. It involved attacking from boats, helicopters and bridges.

 

I would like to do capture mode with a Yacht that would be pretty similar.

Nope, the yacht is a giant map object. The Tug in GTA IV was an actual vehicle in in-game terms.

As far as I know the same Tug boat can be found in GTAV at Elysian Island but it can't be driven.

Btw I like your signature,Alfred.

That sucks.

 

I hope there is a Jaws DLC because we are going to need a bigger boat.

[Grichka Bogdanoff]

Did somebody say "boat"??

don't know why people are complaining about them reusing the yacht, considering they're adding a f*ckING AIRCRAFT CARRIER

It is a slightly altered version of the boat in IV. I've actually hoped for it to become useable for a long while. We really need a bigger boat in GTA V.

[US Marshal1911]

^^^as for boats, I would love to see the fishing boat return in a slightly bigger version. Loved having shootouts from inside the wheelhouse.

*waits patiently for fun to post another pic of the boat*

 

*sees fun post multiple pics in the custom ride thread*

Pm me your PSN .

I will invite you to my capture and then you can take the pics .

[Tez2]

@funmw2, the yacht if I recall is even in SP, In a mission where you need to rescue Tracey.

I am right?

Yep but that one is "smboat" ipl .

"hei_yacht_heist" ipl is a copy of "smboat" but they will add the interiors with heists update .

Sure. Pm sent. I was just kidding btw, its not a big deal.

[Otsd4rv4]

@funmw2, thanks for confirming!

Also, can you tell us, did you know where the aircraft carrier will spawn? Did you find any coordinates?

Weirdly when looking at your Avatar. I imagined Trevor calmly speaking what you wrote.

[Deffpony]

Cool stuff. Thanks fun

Ha-ha, yeah, but i like Trevor so that's why i put that image with him on my gtaforums profile.

on-topic: It's preety annoying to see R* reused the yacht from Max Payne 3, i mean, come on, but still, i can't wait for heists. Also thanks funmw2 for the info.

Why is it so annoying man if I may ask? I'm pretty excited that we are actually getting one for heists. Aren't we suppose to be glad we actually getting something? Just asking man. Just axing.

Guess it's one benefit to MP3 not doing as well as they planned, they can re-use assets without many people pointing it out.

 

There are two versions on the boat in MP3, the larger version in the panama chapter of single player and a smaller version in multiplayer

Something tells me it will resemble the multiplayer version more than anything.

[Shadowfennekin]

I'm perfectly fine with that. Heists would be even further delayed if they had to make a new yacht from scratch.

 

 

I wouldn't even mind if they recycled the restaurant interiors from IV to make V's.

[Starsky83]

 

 

 

 

 

Well, that confirms it. The interior is pretty much the same, even the map.

Correcting myself with a comparison, they spaced out the windows and changed some textures, but you can see it's still essentially the same.

 

Still, now I guess there's no doubt that interior belongs to the yacht. I wonder if the rest of the ship is also similar.

 

 

Holy sh*t!!!

 

Much new

Very update

So online

Wow

 

Can someone ask and bust Rockstar about this and tell us their reaction?

You're joking right? Heaven forbid they reuse a perfectly good asset instead of spending more time and money to make a whole new one.

 

Don't bother bruh,it's the classic GTAForums community at its best.

I dont think people understand the timescale for designing. I havent been exposed to game development but I have worked for a graphic design and branding agency. So logos can take months to design from end to end. Id imagine the timescale would be simular if not longer for more complex objects. I was reading a developer interview for another game (not a R* game but Id imagine it still applies) that its a year of development to design one car.

[Mach1bud]

Hung out with fun for a few today. Here are a few pics of the yacht.

Cool, but nothing we haven't seen already really.

[CrysisAverted]

Wow, how pathetic, R* is using the same prop they painstakingly made for one game as a free addition to another game of theirs

I think he was being sarcastic.

[Richard Power Colt]

Unless FunMW2 has anything else cooked up for us, I think it's just time for tuesday hype based on minimal evidence. Here we go again.

Yeah, and [the thing is, in that sarcasm,] he makes a good point, too - it's not like any of this stuff is a bought asset made by another studio. Like the vehicles that got ported over from GTA IV and its expansions, it's all R*'s own assets, built for RAGE/Euphoria, and thus it's all compatible, interchangeable and built on the same underlying framework.

 

Looking at the specific details (the surface textures and things like the changed window shape), it's obviously been given the 'GTA' treatment (style/proportion/etc.-wise) before being included in GTA V - that's really no different to likewise taking a vehicle from IV and improving the level of detail for V, or even the complete face-lift everything from old-gen got for the upgrade to new-gen.

 

Heck, if having a big archive of stock R* assets means they don't have to scratch-build new (and untested) stuff every time they put out a new game, and thus focus on actual new content/mechanics, then that's surely only a sensible approach - why re-invent the wheel, when the one you're actually using right now works just fine?

Eh,okay bruh. Right on.

True - although that's what happened with the Festive Surprise last month. No hype/build-up, other than stuff leaking out earlier in the month, then *bam* - Newswire announcement on Tuesday and DLC release on Thursday.

 

Either that, or *crickets*, in which case I'll just shrug and wait another fortnight for whatever Valentine's Day stuff gets added...
