Mattineu Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 (edited) A spanish-speaking youtube channel (Rai Can) made a video talking about a supossed deleted river that would go from the Easter Bay area to Sasquatch Creek (the river that divides Whetstone and Flint County), that river would cut out San Fierro from the rest of Flint County, and would be used to block the city before Truth's mission "Are you going to San Fierro?", he shows some map evidence as well a text string from the trucker missions, said text string bellow: (TRANSLATION: The following trucker missions will be unlocked when you have acess to San Fierro. Quick reminder that in the final version of San Andreas, you can only do the Trucking missions after Tanker Commander, a mission you can only do after unlocking Flint County, Whetstone and San Fierro) Map Evidence: In the video, it is argued that this area could be the riverbed since it looks rushed because of the elevation, and that it resembles the channel in Easter Bay Prelighting error, could indicate something being rushed This Bridge could've been over the River in earliers versions of the map, but that's just a guess Sudden texture change the area the river would meet with Sasquatch Creek in Whetstone The Train tunnel, that was likely rushed in, maybe because of a change in planning? Possible River trajectory. Counterevidence: - There is no screenshots of sayed river on Beta promo material - There is no beta maps showing it (Like in the one from Lil Probe Inn) The Video that inspired me to write this thread: Edited June 17, 2021 by Mattineu Lioshenka, Davve95, CarlJohnson92 and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GhettoJesus Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 I have heard this theory. My only concern with it is that no beta map features a river, meaning they scrapped it rather early. If that's the case then why didn't they fix the giveaways? It's not like they didn't have time to do it. But then again R* has always been a bit sloppy and they love their "this will do" type of fixes. CynicalMexican 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlJohnson92 Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 (edited) It really existed can see on this map very early there is river in this san fierro location I still had to edit the map. Edited June 17, 2021 by CarlJohnson92 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's very difficult to say. The geography of rural San Andreas is pure fiction and is barely based on real life California/Nevada. I didn't find anything similar when looking at Google Maps.

ArmanCan Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 I think a lot of stuff was badly cut and they didn`t cut them properly (Maybe it was because of Time/Release Date).. for example sometimes cops takes wrong turns (and finds themselves in the ocean) at the freeway where stands between san fierro highway and fort carson..

TarRebririon Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 (edited) That explains why when I opened that particular section in MED, I noticed that the bridge could have a river underneath it. I think it's could have been a waterfall though, since counter-evidence 1 states that the height is not the same. EDIT: Also, noticed how empty the carpark feels. It looks dark, there not much lighting and hardly any cars spawned there. Such conditions is ideal for a river.

A8ul99 Posted June 20, 2021 Share Posted June 20, 2021 I guess it's possible because, that, having another river in the area would be redundant, due to the size of the map and the existing river south of the supposedly deleted river are already huge and winding already. But still, it's my own opinion after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently the Pajaro River is the closest that comes to this. Not that it means much. San Andreas' geography takes so many liberties and it's pretty inconsistent with real life geography anyway.

Jabalous Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Is that what Aaron Garbut was thinking 18 years back? River or no River? Things tasted different, looked different. I remember those peaceful, simple days. Time to let it rest... ViceKing and Mehaniq 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
