    Also, isn't it kind of pointless to add a garage when we have the ability to buy property?

    You can never have too many properties...

    It stated that the garage is going to be available right from the start, which suggests that garages, or perhaps a larger garage, won't be available until later in the game.

    They're probably just referring to the fact that it doesn't have to be purchased or unlocked. I don't think you'll have to get to a certain point in the game to get access to property.

    Dont you like to climb trees?

    that's how it ends?? dumb ass announcers praised eric spolstra for a good play call when in fact the only play was to pass to lebron... the reason why they won was because of the over-play on defense from west (was it west?)... he left a wide open lane for lebron... i can't believe that hard fought game came down to one move...

    i feel sorry for ya jobo, i was jumping up and down rooting for the pacers... i thought it was gonna happen...

    The Heat won because of weak defense at the most important time, or did David Stern set this up? I mean c'mon a game wining wide open just on time layup. Thats not possible for the Pacers defense no matter how bad the play was lol. I was rooting for them also even tho they beat my Knicks lol.

    Gangland

    San Andreas fans look back fondly at the gang wars between the Ballas, Grove Street Families, and Vagos. Though modern day Los Santos is very different from the golden era of street gangs featured in that game, Rockstar has confirmed that the Ballas are still going strong.

    When you ride into gang territory, they don't automatically attack you like they used to. The thugs mind their own business unless you antagonize them by drawing a weapon. Their extreme distaste for authority, however, is much more apparent. Whenever the police roll into their neighborhood, the Ballas will open fire on the boys in blue. This can be used to your advantage when you're trying to lose the heat in a chase. Drive into gang territory and they will immediately attack the police, giving you a window to escape.

    Rockstar is smart for that, pretty realistic. But I still hope they attack you automatically if its someone you've gotten in a fight or shootout with, or if you have history against a close friend/family member of theirs. And that every character has a name and identity sort of like RDR. When you become of the lowest honor on RDR, sometimes a guy would come up to you challenging you to a draw because you killed his brother, they can put the same thing in V but instead with fighting or shooting. I could imagine Franklin on the in game version of Slauson and a Balla jumps out his car like "thas that bitch nigga that killt ma homie".. Then the rest is whatever the player makes it to be.

    Yea...Grove street is not based on bloods at all, they're based on crips since they're in Ganton (compton). Compton is traditionally crip territory. The ballas in the game had idlewood (inglewood). Inglewood is tradtionally blood. So that covers that and in san andreas vagos were MS13/18th street, varrios los aztecas were surenos, and san fierro rifa were based on nortenos

    And I'm kinda happy that the ballas don't shoot at you everytime u see them, annoying as fuck when they shoot out my tires, it would make sense that they would make them more tame, gang banging started to die after the riots and the truces between sets/gangs

    I always thought Grove Street Families were more like Bloods, and the Ballas were like the Crips. Since the ratio of Bloods to Crips is like 1:5, and the Ballas definitely outnumbered Grove Street 5 to 1 at the beginning of GTA San Andreas. Plus the Ballas gang colour purple is closer to Blue ( IE Crips ) then Grove Street's Green is.

    They're based loosely off both Bloods and Crips. As for the colors, Ballas wear purple which is closer to blue, but their name starts with "B" and Grove St puts BK. Green is worn by Pirus and Crips (more Crips wear green than purple in compton/gardena/watts..), CJ will say "Cuz" every once in a while (even though he means it as "family" or "relative"). Grove St has a OG Loc (Crip name) and Temple Drive can be based off Atlantic Drive Compton Crips. They have Ryder who is based off Eazy E (from Kelly Parc CC who wears Blue and Green).

    i am starting to doubt dogs, unless R* wants to create about a dozen different breeds... they made sense in RDR because dog breeding wasn't huge back then in america... nowadays there's a thousand different breeds... there might be german shepard K9 units, but i don't think there will be domestic animals... fish yes, sharks and whales, no...

    rats, pigeons, seagulls, hawks, snakes all sound plausible, but i don't think they are going to create all of these exotic animals mentioned... larger scaled animals have no place in an urban setting... you don't want to have to hit a coyote or dog every couple of blocks, you could pop some tires or get in a serious car crash... if there's a desert setting, perhaps you would see a few other animals like a lizard or scorpion... however, i still think larger animals are out of the question... dogs could be sprinkled in here and there, but not on the scale that you all are thinking of...

    this is an urban driving simulator, not the wild west...

    Dude basically it is going to be like red dead redemption. they will only make it to where a certain animal will only spawn in a certain area.

    Armadillo

    • Location: West of Armadillo.
    • Parts: Carapace (Basic Price:5), Meat (Basic Price:3).

    Beaver

    • Parts: Fur (Basic Price: 12), Meat (Basic Price: 5).

    Bighorn

    • Location: Tall Trees region.
    • Parts: Antlers (Basic Price: 10), Fur (Basic Price: 8), Meat (Basic Price: 5).

    Boar

    • Location: Northwest from Hennigan's Stead.
    • Parts: Meat (Basic Price: 5), Skin (Basic Price: 3), Tusks (Basic Price: 8).

    etc etc

    Yeah its better like that, they put the animals in places you will see them in real life, just like pedestrians and cars. Wouldn't make sense to see a random Balla in the hills, a rich guy with a Lambo mowing his lawn in the projects, or a Bear rolling around in the desert.

    Can't believe we were talking about a new destination, 'V isn't even out yet... What happened, the hype wear off?

    People have been talking about SF and LV being included as soon as they found out it was San Andreas.

    No shit. But i was talking about recent discussion above, since we've seen the new trailers, and read/watched the previews. People are again, starting to realise it is only LS and surrounding country (even though it was confirmed a very long time ago) and are trying to think of other ways for extra cities to be in the game, when it wont happen. There's people in this thread doing amazing analysis and have managed to construct a visually accurate (accurate being that they're using different techniques and finds, and still managing to get a similar outcome) map from images of the game, and there's no sign of any other city to date, so i don't expect we'll see much more...

    I'd be happy playing GTA V if it only contained what we've seen so far, and no more. The game already looks like it has enough to keep me playing for at least a couple of years.

    I know that, but they were talking about DLC not the actual game.

    I'd like to see the dogs having turds in the park and people slipping up on them. Possibly breaking arms/legs and then the ambulance turning up. Would be great.

    I could imagine Trevor chasing a guy around the in game MacArthur park and slipping on a hot bag of shit.. Then the speed causes him to slip upward and the shit splat around the back of his head and neck, then you have to walk around smelling like shit :P .. Id go to Cluckin Bell and sit next to people eating.

    I just went to the safe house in Armadillo and got cop attention, then went up to the room and they will enter one of the 2 doors, they will come in and as soon as they do just shoot them without dead eye, then go outside from time to time and there will be a lot of cops, just use dead eye for them. My apologies I'm just now seeing this reply.
