False informations about GTA, that you wish they were true

My favourites are about stock market and cop behavior.

 

When GTA V was released there was widely popular false information about stock markets,how they are affected to freeroam. For example, If you destroy few planes of same company, their stock will goes down and stocks of competitors company up.

 

Another very popular false information was how police is aggresive towards specific character. Cops in LS are more aggresive towards Franklin but not for Michael. Or in rural area how they are aggresive towards Trevor and they even know him by name.

Music stores and MP3 players in IV. They've cut that feature but it'll be nice if they did include them. I think Saints Row 1 and Watch Dogs are the only games so far that have implemented this feature successfully in gameplay.

I remember reading online that in IV, if you enter a car and stay in the same spot for a bit, niko would put on a seatbelt (much like how if you get on a bike and stay still, he’ll put on a helmet) and putting on a seatbelt would keep you from flying out the windshield

 

I remember my stupid 13 year old ass must’ve sat there for over a minute just waiting for niko to do some seatbelt-putting-on animation before I realized that people on the internet lied to me

Heist in GTA V was a side activity/mission. Like the Caligula heist in San Andreas, it's a separate job from the main story. If only I knew that there's nothing to rob once the story's over at that time 😒

Kavinsky sh*t tier trolling. I completely forgot.

 

People speculated that they cut radio from final game, but when they dig into files there were nothing. Any mention of that radio, nothing.

Flying off the map in San Andreas will spawn additional gang territories. While this is true on the PS2 if you fly at the right direction it doesn't work like that on PC. Afaik you can only corrupt very few, insignificant territories. My dumbass tried flying off the map several times for like half an hour. It would have been kinda cool if you could corrupt every territory like on the PS2 though.

Riding the bus in GTA IV. In the official PlayStation or another magazine (I can't remember which) it was written that you can wait at bus stops and get on the bus (like a cab) and then get off at other stops (like the subway).

 

... I then always imagined sitting on the bus in first person mode and looking at the city at night. Yeah, after the game was released, I was pretty pissed when this feature wasn't in the game and I waited for more than an hour at one of the bus stops and nothing happened :D

Being able to fly the full wing Dodo, find a (solid) 4th island, all dem GTA 3 myths. I think even that purple Esperanto from the Ghost Town was involved in some rumors.

God that was a whole thing IIRC, all because the artist himself said something on Twitter already back in 2012 or so. Then it was just lies for clout - definitely not a new concept to social media :kekw:

Basically everything people made sure we would be able to do in GTA V based in every single NPC action seen in the first trailer, like buying houses:

Buying drugs:

CJ being a playable protagonists:

That's not false tho. I vividly remember being chased by the cops as Trevor one time and I heard a cop shout "Dammit, it's Trevor!" on the speaker.

Michael being the sole protagonist of GTA V. The story would have been so much better imo.

Like NightmanCometh said, Rockstar Dundee being the developer of GTA Definitive Edition. Before trailers and screenshots were revealed, hearing that Grove Street Games would actually be developing the Definitive Edition is a big red flag for me considering their reputation from the broken mobile ports for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

You're not the only one who fell for that. I remember hearing about it in a video showing attention to detail in GTA 4.

I believe I recall reading like a decade ago that we would have been able to turn off the ambient music/score in GTA V. Turn off the radio, and you still have music...

I don't think that was ever mentioned anywhere in media. The ambient flying and action music was a new thing for GTA in GTA 5. Before that, radios were tuned to certain songs if you were in a car.
