>map is big enough to fit RDR and San Andreas map
>doesn't feel nearly as big as the other two

How does something like this even happen?

stop flying around in the jet like a nigger. or ride a mountain bike from your house to the summit of mt chilead.

I don't know what chilead is, but it doesn't sound fun at all.
>>
>>334450954
No fog of war like in San Andreas so you can see the actual distance between stuff instead of just pretending you're traveling huge distances every time you go a block in any direction.
>>
>>334450954

Try walking the full length of the map.
>>
>>334451105
You're playing the game wrong if you don't think that sounds fun.
>>
>>334450954
Because San Andreas had San Fierro and Las Venturas and nostalgia
>>
Because you have cars that buzz at 90mph

Why are you posting about a game you don't know?
>>
>>334450954
the game is simply full of shit (especially the North).
>>
>>334450954

Because you never had a prostitute blow you while in a 5-star police pursuit and two assholes in jets doing strafing runs.
>>
>>334451383
I have played GTA V. I don't know what the fuck chilead is. Maybe learn to fucking spell, stupid cunt.
>>
>>334450954
Because you had many roads taking detours in GTA SA, plus each part of the map had it's own set of missions.

In GTA V it's just a giant circle which you can drive around in 5 minutes due to not having to decelerate, and 90% of the missions happen in the city itself.
There's so many zones of the map that are completely wasted.
>>
>>334451516
>plus each part of the map had it's own set of missions.
Going to clarify this.
I mean that since each region of the map had it's own missions, you spent a lot of time moving around there, plus parts of the map were completely locked.
GTA SA makes better use of the map, and it makes you explore it more.

it's the big ass fucking mountain at the top of the map. the one where you can parachute down to paleto bay.

Just wait for San Fierro & Las Venturas to be announced in E3.

Because the map is readily available for the player as soon as they start the game.
Because most the game's missions take place only in the city, making the country feel insignificant and pointless.
Because car speed is amped up to extreme speeds.
Because the rendering distance is fucking huge.
Because there's no interesting points around the country to explore, nothing like TECHNOLOGY or Easter Eggs.

Why did Rockstar just stop giving a fuck about their game half-way through?
>>
>>334451716
They announced the next-gen and PC ports of GTA V at E3 2014.
>>
>>334451516

Literally this. Their main mistake was making a circular highway that wraps around the entire map and barely has any traffic.
This shit allows you to explore the map way too quickly.

>>334451885
How the fuck did I miss that? I thought the last thing rockstar did at E3 was announce Agent

I feel bad for you, it was amazing.

And yeah, it was announced in Sony's conference.

Heard they were working on gta vi already, so far i think we're only getting dope cars and cash grab for online until it comes out.
>>
>>334452138
to be fair to the other anon, that was the first time they appeared at E3 since 2000, when people talked shit about gta 3 and they got buttmad and never went back. until then.

>>334452359
What did people get mad at GTA 3?

Poor map design.
>>
>>334450954
Blaine county is not as interesting as Las venturas or San fierros. It's just a huge desert full of little details but nothing impressive or memorable.
>>
>>334450954
it has been the worst map design of the entire series

Cars are faster and pretty much impossible to flip and etc from turning, so driving is much smoother.
1 egg shaped island with a road along the outside
Like 4 giant empty mountains. Like jesus, at least add 5 more paths to mount chilliad.
1 city with a very low road density compared to other GTA cities.
>>
>>334452060
DELETE THIS

>>334452060
Looks like very clever design. If you look at the rapper's mansion, it's huge compared to everything else. Places you go to are larger and fleshed out with filler props being small to create a feeling of density.
>>
>>334455561
Diamond city is like a wheel and spoke map, but with half the paths blocked, so it feels bigger.
>>
>>334456017
and THE ONLY city
>>
>>334452060
That STILL looks bigger than V's map, despite the size.

Just goes to show they made good use of the map they had.
>>
>>334455561
cars arent faster they are dumbed down to limited speeds
>>
>>334454976
Because it was

Please stop posting a neighborhood mod for The Sims and pretending it's Vice City
