How would Saint Row/ GTA/Watchdog game be if a city had 100 different gangs?

[Theblueboypat]

The ps4 maps were huge for some games. Now imagine how big the maps are on the PS5 or in the future with the PS6 or PS7.

Who knows a video game would have a megacity before real life those. That's scary when you bring up gangs in games like GTA and Saint Row. These guys would shoot for looking at them.

So if the city is that big and has 100 gangs. How ridiculous would that be?

As a kid, I hate the rival gangs. Because gangs are annoying NPC's who shoot at you. I would cry as a kid every time I got killed in Ballas or Vice Kings territory. I would stay on my turf to be safe. And would go to suburbs and different cities to avoid the rival gang neighborhoods.

Now imagine doing that with 99 gangs. JESUS CHRIST!

That leaves us wondering whether there's e.g. a dominant gang or few that own about 70% of city territory while out of other 30% each gang occupies a small part of a hood (or maybe some operate on just one part of a street?) or are all gangs spread out relatively equally in area?

I think even creatively that might be too big of a task. like you'd end up with a lot of joke gangs as filler to make it up to that 100 gangs mark, and how well that would go down would be based on how good the jokes are

If GTA Los Santos had 100 gangs. Knowing GTA San Andreas. Majority of those 100 gangs would just be Families and Ballas sets. Maybe a couple of extra Mexican and Asian gangs to add. lol .

Why would anyone even think of that? I mean, you wouldnt even be able to spread all of the gangs, plus, it'd be too hard to keep track of anything anyways, like unless you are a hardcore fan you wouldnt remember any gang names

That's just unrealistic. Even in GTA IV and V there are only so many gangs (somewhere around 10 I think) and you probably forgot or didn't notice a portion of them.

Probably a lot of these guys.

I don't know, but I'm 100% sure most games don't even have 100 streets, especially Grand Theft Auto V.

iirc in gta iv and eflc combined there are about 25 gangs

That's way too many considering the average player probably knows about half of them. Not to mention probably more than 5th of them doesn't appear on the streets.

[Zello]

Would prison gangs also count?

[kobeni]

It would be like the warriors and there would definitely be some form of gang hierarchy or something that would be really cool.

 

But 100 is too much tbh

Just looked and if you count different factions (eg different Italian mafia families) GTA IV has 24. 100 is a bit much but it wouldn't be that crazy if it was a game with a huge map, multiple cities and rural areas.

GTA V has over 200 named streets, GTA IV has nearly 300.

200 named streets in Grand Theft Auto V? These must be so small.

V's Los Santos is small in comparison the the large overall map size but it's still pretty big in comparison to other GTA cities and then you have the rural/small town roads too.

Prob wouldn't have many members. Like the old GTA games had tho. But newer has few different.. Still would be too much too hard to keep check on all
