Disabled NPCs

[NumaYay]

You think that would fit into this game? Disabled NPCs like people in wheel chairs (you could push them off Mt Chiliad for example, wheel chairs could be ride-able), midgets, or even spastics or people with one arm etc.?

 

Has this ever been featured in GTA so far? Haven't played Vice City for example. Or are there disabled NPCs in GTA V? Haven't seen one... Wade doesn't count. remember an ingame commercial with a man in a wheel chair.

 

Thoughts?

Vice City it's the only GTA with people rolling around on Skates....that's all I know.

[MASTER GABE 202]

It would add to the realism, but imagine the cruel people killing them.

[Drill Sergeant]

There 8-ball, lester, and Roman

Also I think this is a good idea. Can't wait to see a disabled hot coffee mod!

[Uncle Vlad]

Probably the same reason why children aren´t in this game.

[PhillBellic]

Another quality NumaYay topic.

Since the SP DLC may be a lie and we can´t be sure to have Greenrock quality DLC threads in the future, at least we can rely on NumaYay.

There have been disabled characters in the games before but they were all storyline characters who only appeared in missions. I don't recall any disabled npcs roaming the streets in the games.

 

I'd welcome it though. Could have a lot of fun with them.

[NumaYay]

^ yes. And since every human is equal and should have the same rights those npcs should be included into V.

To what aim? You know the game will get alot of controversy from knocking over and killing disabled citizens. I bet it'd be taken off the shelves.

[Spadge]

Most of them are mentally disabled, does this count ?

Are we talking about same game here ?

[Thelema93]

The game was already taken off of shelves in target because apparently it " encourages" violence against women. it would be even worse if it was accused of encouraging violence against the disabled.

[Dope_0110]

Nope, there are no officially disabled NPC's (not counting a few story characters). But.. you can make them disabled in III for a few seconds by targeting their limbs, making them bleed to death.

[jazzbone]

The enterable hospitals in gta 4 have npc's that are in some way sick. Some are in the waiting room while others are on beds in examination rooms.

 

Also in gta 4 i bgan to think of Niko as possibly disabled from from combat. From concusions and or from what he may have .experienced.

 

We should all be glad that gta games do not have peds in wheel chairs,on crutches, or real old with walkers because we love to reduce the population with cars,molotoves,and miniguns. How would we all feel running over people with walkers? We all know we would do it.

This.

 

It would cause colossal controversy and throw a bad light at R*. Grand Theft Auto is already one of the most provocative franchises, they've already included animals which was a daring move because of PETA etc..

 

Adding disabled/crippled/midget people and/or children would get this game banned immediately, I think.

Nah, would cause too much fuss and wouldn't be worth it. But it would be cool if there was a driveable wheel chair that has nitrous in it.

[Alvarez]

There's a NumaYay NPC in game files, but it's disabled.

[Luddite]

..as long as they aren't war veterans.

 

If so ppl may have problems with treating with the same mudurous malice that we do other npcs.

[Colognenigguh]

It would add to the realistic feel, but it will never be in the game same as kids.

[Doctor-D666]

Speaking as an actual disabled gamer, this.... Is honestly something i would love to see in the future.

[AzelfandQuilava]

Probably the same why children NPCs aren't in game: "Some f*cked up psychopath would constantly carpet bomb them".

[lastmanonearth]

Morbidly obese peds like the ginger in III would be good to scare, but wheelchair-bound people like amputees and such would just be sad to look at. Every ped in V looks exactly the same to me. It`s like they only have one kind of black/white male and black/white female model with different clothes. I know that`s not exactly true but it feels like that, they oughta mix it up a bit. There are men who aren`t exactly 6`, 175 pounds and wearing skinny jeans and women who aren`t exactly 5`8, 110lbs and blonde wearing designer sunglasses.
