  1. I've got a few beginning/storylines in mind:

    1) You start of in the character's past. Say Vice City in the 1990's or something, doing some missions that involve the protagonists past (basically a prolouge) just so we can get good backround on the guy. These missions involve lot's of killings and robberies, etc.

    After a number of those missions, it sort of goes into the present day and you decide you want to leave the gang and live a peaceful life. Your "homies" aren't to happy about it and they begin persuading you to stay. One dickhead goes way too far and begins pushing and shoving you, eventually slapping you. You lose your temper and shoot the guy, giving you a shit load of heat.

    So, the last mission in the prolouge involves escaping Vice City. You have to kill countless enemies coming after you, and get to safety. The game gives you three choices: 1) Escape by boat. 2) Escape by plane/helicopter. 3) Escape by car.

    Choosing to go via boat will lead to a huge chase and eventual shootout in the docks. Most of the chasers/shooters will be from the cars and controlling the neighbourhood. The other set of gangsters will be from a drugs shipment coming in. Once you kill them, you take one of the boats and head to Los Santos, bear in mind, the gangsters will come after you in their boats.

    Choosing to go by plane will lead to a huge airport shootout diverting incoming flights and cancelling outgoing flights. Once you kill of the gangsters, you can steal a plane or helicopter or force a pilot to fly you. This will take you to Los Santos.

    Going by car, will be the hardest way to go. You'll have to drive for miles in order to get to Los Santos, battling your way through chasers and road blocks created by gangsters and some roadblocks created by state police.

    The story could now go two ways:

    1) Your car gets too much damage done to it. You abandon your car and make your way through the woods trying to escape the attention and find your way to Los Santos. Whilw travelling through the woods, you hear police and gangsters shouting stuff like "You can't hide forever you prick!!" or "Just give yourself up and make this less painful for yourself!!"

    You begin to think to yourself about just letting the bastards have you, when suddenly, someone in the woods (whether it be a normal resident or maybe a hippie, like The Truth) says: "I can get you outta here." You agree to the help offered and this person begins driving while you ride shotgun. Because your in the woods, you only bump into a few enemies. You eventually arrive in Los Santos.

    2) You keep battling your way through the cops and gangsters, until you reach the toll bridge. Your crossing the toll bridge that leads into Los Angeles with one gang car still persuing you. The guy riding shotgun pulls out an RPG and attempts blow you up. Somehow, the idiot fires the RPG from a bad position blowing up the bridge as you race to get of. Going with the typical GTA style of things. The bridge will be closed indefintely.

    Now that you've somehow got to Los Santos, you begin trying to find a place to lay low. If you travel with the hippie, he has a few connections that can help you. If you went solo with your car, you travel about the city trying to find somewhere for rent or on sale for a decent price.

    You eventually find a small shithole crib to hold yourself up in for a while. The next morning when you wake up after a rough night sleep, people somehow find out who you are and find out you're in Los Santos. They begin calling you.

    You get to know a few people, and do small jobs like: intimidating people who have loaned money from the person you know, to maybe a petty car theft. Before you know, you begin getting your bad reputation back.

    After doing jobs and earning lots of money, you buy yourself that big house the protagonist dreamed of in the trailer. You have a family now and your life is going great. Suddenly, you find out the guys you're now working with, are connected to your former boss in Vice City. So, somehow, the bridge is reopened or he gets a private jet over or some shit. He, along with members of the gang, break into your house, kidnap your family and shoot you.

    After your family gets kidnapped and you get shot, you wake up in hospital, not forgetting what happened. You get out of hospital, and go on a relentless manhunt leaving nothing but blood and destruction in your path.

    The last mission involves going back to Vice City after you get a lead on the bosses location. You find him and your family in the gang's compound. You have a huge shootout, where you eventually come out on top. You go and finally get your family back. Your old gang is no more.

    You and your family go back home to good old Los Santos. Throughout time, you time up loose ends with some people...

    I forgot to mention that during the mission where you're escaping Vice City, the beginning credits come up. Not that it's important.


  2. I was bored and i started thinking about how the story may start in this GTA. There is obviously endless possibilities, but with the trailer clues and the confirmation of Los Santos and surrounding land, i stated to narrow down some ideas in my mind. I know most of you wont really care too much about this until you play it, but there's no harm in discussing it.

    The protagonist mentions in the trailer, why did i move here? That's a clue he's only just got there, and possibly by chance after quitting his old line of work? He mentions having kids, but that doesn't mean he actually has any yet. Also, Rockstar are still being tight lipped about the rest of the map so far. So this could hint to a something extra we weren't quite expecting beyond Los Santos.

    My first prediction:

    You start off in a 4-door family car, with your wife. You control the vehicle, and have to drive through some nice rural landscapes, passing through small towns along the way. You guys are talking about all the things you're going to do when you get to the new house, decorating and stuff, blah blah... Then suddenly a blacked out Sentinel rams into the back of their car. Two more are tailing them. The protagonist says something like "Shit, they've found us", and you now have to try and lose them whilst they ram and shoot at your car. You go off-road over some rocky terrain, and start to follow a "set route" (set, being you don't know you're following it, you just do it because the map is set in a way you just follow the semiotic signs) and then the cars eventually do their set barrel roll routines and diving off of canyon edges, missing a bridge, and those sorts of animations after a nice lengthy chase.

    The protag and his wife have a little talk about the incident after finally shaking them, getting back onto a freeway. You go through a toll booth and enter Los Santos, triggering a nice little radio message saying "The weather is perfect here in Los Santos today, here's a perfect song to compliment that". And as you drive through Los Santos to your new house, the set song creates an upbeat feel as you take in all the landmarks along the way.

    Welcome to Los Santos everyone! :)

    Ok, so that's my first prediction. Just to get the juices flowing.

    Post you own predictions, as frequently as you like. It doesn't just have to be how the story starts. You may have a certain mission in your head, that you feel we may come across during the game, and want to get it off your chest. It could just be a place to express what you really want from the GTA V Story though (not game mechanics and misc stuff though, use the pinned, What are you looking for in GTA5? thread for that).

    Get writing!

    I must admit, this most definitely the best topic I've ever seen being made!! EXCELLENT IDEA by the way. Very creative :)


  3. How did you manage to find links to the actual file? It wouldn't let me paste them or whatever it is you do to make them appear to others.

    Just look at it here.

    Thanks a million :D

    Watch this video. Also their are such vehicles as a chairlift, snowplough and snowmobile and others. So here watch this vid tell me what you think.

    <shitty video channel>

    I watched this video last night, and I now believe what people have been telling me...GTA5Videos are either BULLSHIT or made after they've saw others finding this type of stuff!

    icon11.gif

    this is a load of crap. I'm going to have Max Payne 3 soon and I bet I dont even find a vehicles.ide. That file he was looking at looks so close to the one from GTA IV. And its incredibly easy to type in whatever you want in that notepad document.

    I'm hopefully gonna have Max Payne 3 soon as well if stupid Play.com hurry up and fucking deliver it! On the other hand, I don't know what too believe in. There's a big chance it's fake, but also speculation that it's real. For all we know, Rockstar have purposely posted this on places to make us take our eyes of the real GTA V stuff...not likely, but ya never know.

    I don't know why everyone's so inclined to believe this is fake, other than the widespread disposition on this forum that Rockstar is infallible and therefore all leaks are invariably fake.

    Considering source code for GTA has been found on Bully and Red Dead, I think we have good cause to believe that it's genuine.

    It could be genuine, but it could be bullshit as well. We'll not find out until more GTA V info is released or when we finally get to play it.


  4. Give it a fucking rest already, you're using mum jokes on the internet. Can you not see how much of a plebian you look?

    In other news, I found this little gem:https://www.facebook.com/pages/Telling-caolan-to-shut-up/237668642992671

    DUDE... FUCK YES

    Fair point.


  5. This is grade A horse shit. The real good stuff! Obviously, you don't follow Bioshock.(and you're not a golfer.)

    OBVIOUSLY I DON'T FOLLOW BIOSHOCK!! IT'S SHITE!! Pretty sure I'd know the name by now if I did.

    You're the biggest cunt on the internet. And your caps lock is broken, moron. Why do you play GTA? Is it because YOU LIKE TO HIT PEDZ WITH CARS AT HIGH SPEED AND BECOZ THE GUNS ARE COOL? DO YOU MISS MODDING CARS CAUSE MODDING CARS IS COOL?

    Dick.

    No sure, we all play GTA so we can all be like you and play "SWALLOW THE LEADER!!" I might be the biggest cunt on the internet but your ma has the biggest cunt!!


  6. Video on YouTube by GTA5Videos about Bioshock being delayed due to GTA V. It won't let me paste the URL but the video is called GTA5-October release date! #2.

    It also says in the video that Take Two owns both Rockstar games and 2K Games. Maybe I wasn't clear on the Rockstar Czech thing and all, but they're both the same company.

    Just heard that 2K Games (Rockstar Czech)

    How'd you figure that out?

    I can't remember where I read it but it's all over the internet.

    Shouldn't be too hard to find it and give a couple links, then.

    OBVIOUSLY I DON'T FOLLOW BIOSHOCK!! IT'S SHITE!!

    The responses to this should be fun.

    I've found links, but it won't let me paste them. Your best bet is YouTube.com/GTA5Videos. There will be a video saying GTA5-October release! #2.

    Caolan your annoying shut up the internet is the internet you can't back yourself up with articles like these cause the websites write bullshit articles putting in false facts to get people stupid enough like you to believe it and spread around the article. Read the shit list

    You're actually starting to be a real pain in the hole, you know that. Got nothing good to say, don't say it...DICK!!


  7. Just heard that 2K Games (Rockstar Czech)

    How'd you figure that out?

    :mystery:

    1. Stop yelling like a n00b.

    2. Bioshock isn't by Rockstar Games.

    I know it's not, it's by 2K Czech, which is known to people as Rockstar Czech, it doesn't matter what it's called Take Two own both anyway.


  8. Just heard that 2K Games (Rockstar Czech) have delayed their October release of Bioshock Infinite

    Fun Fact: There is no Rockstar Czech.

    You should really know what you're talking about before you speak.

    It's actually true. 2K Czech made Mafia 2 and the creators of that are now helping with GTA V. It's all over the internet how 2K Czech is Roskstar Czech and how TAKE TWO is the parent company.

    Irrelevant. Even if the game wasn't delayed and gta 5 had a October release window, you can bet your ass that rockstar would release it in October. And it was not going to come or on the 24th of may at all, not enough time.

    Think of it this way though, say Bioshock or whatever it is wasn't delayed and Rockstar go ahead with GTA V October release. Bioshock would be a dead loss to the whole business as everyone would obviously choose GTA V over Bioshock. Maybe it's nothing to do with GTA V but then again, it could be.

    I want it to be released this summer.

    Trust me...so do I :L


  9. Could b pausable. But who knows when it may come out. Hope it does come out in oct though.

    Same :L

    yes its true GTA was going to come out about MAY but max payne 3 delayed GTA 5 thats why it was comeing out in october most people were happy but then BIO SHOCK infinity registered there game on october and rockstars cant release 2 games at once because the one game is popular than the other so no one would buy BIO shock so taht means rockstars would lose money now GTA 5 is comeing out in sept atleast we hope

    :wall:

    Just heard that 2K Games (Rockstar Czech) have delayed their October release of Bioshock Infinite (or something) has now been delayed to February 2013 apparently due to GTA V.

    I don't know for sure, but if this is true, then this is another factor of the GTA V October 2012 release date...

    Makes sense. I hope this is true, but it could also have nothing to do with GTAV.

    You've got a strong point. It could just be for an unexplianed reason. Though, like yourself and many others, I hope it's true :)


  10. As everyone else has said, you have no proof that it is 87% done, and most of the stuff you said is unconfirmed rumor shit.

    I'm very aware it's rumors and probably nothing more than that. But lots of people including myself expect Rockstar to have it completed at that percentage. I read 87% somewhere but it's probably more of a rough guess.

    87% is kind of such a random number dude, it could perfectly be a 70% or 80% or no % what we are looking at is a game that according to the trailer looks near completion, but that according to the trailer, we are also ignoring to see that missions and other features do not appear on the trailer.

    we have no idea whether the trailers is an early work or if it is something they just made on the moment. you have to realize how difficult it has to be to make the scripts for the game, in the game engine so when you fly in a helicopter some random dude called roman calls you asking you if you want to go bowling.

    @nobody special, the original post was about why would the game "be released on October"

    You've deffinetly got a point. 87% is deffinetly a random number but it's the rough guess people including myself are making. I actually heard somewhere that the script would be alot bigger and more detailed than L:A NOIRE. But it could be rumors....Hope that's true though.

    then again most of what people have guessed was wrong. before the trailer was even out people started posting random shit, and most posts out there were practical nonsense, the game could perfectly be 100% completed, and R* in its efforts to gain major profit are pushing it before christmas, although it is most likely not what is happening, it is as possible as the game being 87% which in real life settings is a number that doesn't represent anything, is not like a cake you are cooking and is 87% completely cooked, realize that if the devs decide they should add more stuff into the game then that 87% is meaningless.

    now if you are speaking about the development of the map, that you guys are estimating that the map is 87% done, then that is a more viable estimation as we are talking about a specific input from the game. But what we can observe is that the map is the first thing R* worked on, and as stated by them (I am lazy to provide the source but they said it) the map is the first thing they worked on, then they added the bullshit to it.

    so that 87% is really a stupid guess on nothing meaningful. of course you can think what you want, but you see now how that number really doesn't mean anything but the absurd necessity of people to justify a early release date on the game.

    Well yeah, thinking of it now. That 87% could mean anything or nothing. And as you said, the game could actually be 100% complete, maybe Rockstar are just trying to get a release date.

    You made a good point on the map. Rockstar always tends to start developing the map first. It may not be 87% complete, but hopefully it's not far from that.

    rockstar did clue in to their process. they said that they would start with the location, then the protagonist and then the story line. starting from the beginning of that, and building up from there. id say just a little more than 3/5's of the game is done. the mission and cut-scene implications, multiplayer, and bug termination. they also said a while ago that they were making goo progress. but, it the game come out in October, which it most like will, then it will really just be a bonus. waiting until next year is only going to upset the little kids who shouldn't even be playing the game but do anyway because their dumb parents don't understand the ratings.

    LOL.


  11. True, it's really annoying to see little 13 year olds and stuff saying all that stupid stuff just because they don't understand marketing and patience. I for one can barely remember the old Max Payne games, I just barely remember playing a few missions however the 3rd upcoming sequel looks fantastic, I'm hoping that will hopefully keep me busy till my grand (see what I did there? ;D) game comes out.

    Try 7 year-olds.... or 13 years olds that act like they are 7 years old. I'm 14 and personally I think a small slightly-regular update on progress (which they have given us) is good enough seeing as they have already given us they main information. If they where to release a whole bunch of information now without a sure release date for the game, they would be screwwed... but I guess that is a little too much for said "whining brats" to comprehend.

    I agree like the whole CREWS thingy.

    P:S I'm 14 too!!


  12. I heard he moved to Los Santos from Vice City,

    Not real info.

    A while ago I had thought about playing missions as flashbacks. As Ned Luke we'd drive around to locations and he'd remember things about that place such as the heist and then we'd play as either the guy in the blue car or even the red car. I'm not sure exactly how the flow would be but it would definitely be different. I'm still not entirely convinced Ned and the blue car guy are the same.

    I think to flow would be good. It's hard to decide if they are same guy. I'm going to say they are but maybe not.

    We have no idea how old the guy in the car is! People think they know his age range, it could the the same guy in his 40's or even 30's (people look aged even if they are kind of young) but you just cant tell due to the fact that it probably isn't the complete updated RAGE and this was just for the trailer. No one knows so stop going around telling people that it is this if you have no idea yourself

    Agreed, the protagonist's age has never really been given away throught GTA. I only found out Niko's age because I was trying to turn him gay on Lovemeet.net.


  13. I didn't like the phone because:

    1. It took long to navigate

    2. You had to scroll through cheats

    3. You couldn't run with it

    4. You put it away when you got shot

    I would prefer button codes, or in PC just a window that you enter the cheats into.

    Exactly, I always loved entering the bu

    I really liked the laid back unseriousness of GTA SA and it made the game feel complete, but there were some serious parts in it to make it a good game rather than saints row bullshit, and I think R* will be able to achieve this again :)

    Trust me, I hope so to.

    I want a serious story and some fun cheats that would be great

    I wouldn't mind some unserious parts in the story. I thought TBoGT story was a bit too supernatural, and I don't want unserious as in some guy getting murder by a gaint purple dildo or sufficating on a condom.
