Steve Justice Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Not at all, I love rural, but a good 80% of that map is rural. It just seems TOO much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King Of Swing Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 Am I not just going to be able to walk into Game or Tesco and buy a copy of this next Weds? I can't think of a single game release where that hasn't been true. Â Dead Island is the only game I can recall selling out fast in recent times and thas was because it sold better than anyone was expecting.

Moderators Astro Hollywood Posted September 10, 2013 Author Moderators Share Posted September 10, 2013 (edited) The map from the strategy guide has leaked, and some nerds have tied it together with some previous images to give a sense of scale.  Unhotlinked for spoilers, plus it's massive: http://i.imgur.com/iwPe8U8.jpg  Zoomy gif: http://i.imgur.com/CybzA1r.gif Edited September 10, 2013 by Astro Hollywood Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators neil Posted September 10, 2013 Moderators Share Posted September 10, 2013 I can't wait to drive an IRL 1 hour to get from coast to coast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Chest Rockwell Posted September 10, 2013 Moderators Share Posted September 10, 2013 That's when things go well. Otherwise, you crash your stupid motorcycle in the middle of nowhere and it's a loooong fucking walk... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Astro Hollywood Posted September 10, 2013 Author Moderators Share Posted September 10, 2013 Character switching should eliminate much of that nob-ache. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King Of Swing Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 (edited) I'll be spending a lot of my time with this game in the wilderness starting knife fights with wild animals. Â EDIT Â And that just looks dumb now that I'm actually reading it. Edited September 10, 2013 by The King Of Swing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members PunkStep Posted September 10, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted September 10, 2013 No it doesn't, I'll totally be doing the same. I loved hunting in RDR, so I'm hyped for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvey Dent Posted September 10, 2013 Share Posted September 10, 2013 (edited) I suspect several retailers will "accidently" dispatch their copies on Saturday as planned anyway. Shopto had a fall out with Activision recently about the same sort of thing so can't see them not sending it out two days earlier for this. Â Â Probably no indication of when they're planning to despatch, but shopto charged my card today.

Steve Justice Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Just for the lolz, I've started a twitter rumour about there being a loch ness type creature in the lake on GTA V, ala bigfoot on San Andreas. Â I'd love to get this rumour on IGN or something, so anyone who follows me, retweets would be appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I can't wait to drive an IRL 1 hour to get from coast to coast. Â That was the joy of Test Drive Unlimited, if you ever played that. The whole of Hawaii 1:1 mapped for you to drive around. Simple pleasures, but sometimes what we want is just a simulator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members JNLister Posted September 11, 2013 Paid Members Share Posted September 11, 2013 Well, they've talked about the Los Santos map expanding in the online version. I'm still convinced/praying that eventually they'll just hook up the GTA engine to Google Street View. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 Neil was taking the piss though, wasn't he? Â Oh Well, might explain why TDU wasn't a massive success. Personally I find cruising (not the mikey type) a lot of fun in sandbox games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Justice Posted September 11, 2013 Share Posted September 11, 2013 I just made this to help get some perspective on map size/distance. Just to clarify, number 4 is the freeway bridge. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
