Great game, sold as well as intended, people enjoyed it, and nothing you nitpick over can change that.
There, we're done here. Hold this sage.
>>336671383
Didn't San Andreas had 3 cities, a desert and a back-country?
>>336669975
It's supposed to be like real life
>>336669975
I read somewhere that a single player gta 5 addon will have a desert and city like las vegas.

Fuck hyper-overrated
>>336672002
It's humorous because it deserves every sale. Saint's RoW is a fucking weed in contrast with GTA quality, even though this particular game is much less than IV and SA.
Don't get the thread started on why.

That map is still infinitely better than the map in MGSV
>>336672353
the "cop driving" part is true. chases don't feel like chases, you just have to avoid cars popping in front of you. see sleeping dogs for far better chases. also the missions are shit and feel like a chore. driving is fun but that's pretty much it
>>336672353
>Saint's RoW is a fucking weed in contrast with GTA quality
Even if GTA has more details and better assets, I'd argue that Saint's Row has better writing and is funnier.
>>336671694
yeah, but all of the cities were small as fuck
>>336669975
I see a dude wearing a motorcycle helmet leaning on one knee
>>336672747
Saints Row is better for fucking around with wacky bullshit, while GTA is formarginallymore realistic situations and is obviously better if you want to play with multiple people.
>>336673497
Damn, I can't unsee it now.
>>336673497
Holy shit.

>>336673497
>>336669975
it's ok anon, when gta6 is released in like a decade people will say gta5 was better
literal circle of contrarians jacking each other off
The AI behaviour was dull but the flying and driving physics are very impressive.
I like how if your plane's wings get damaged you lose functionality in a way that makes sense, this is most obvious in the laser when you lose tail rudders or ailerons you can fly but the steering whatever was removed controlled is lost.
>>336673952
>>336673497
not seeing it pal
The layout is shit
I want to kick the rockstar guy who designed the map
>>336669975
The worst part is that sometimes you switch characters and they'll be all the way up in the mountains.
Stay in the fucking city, Trevor.
Why did it become an island? What happened to the rest of the continent? How did Mt Chiliad end up north of Los Santos?
>>336674478
Tectonic shifts
>>336674386
>>336671383
This.
That's the problem with contrarianism on /v/, you faggots don't know what you want.
That's not really true at all, there's a fuckton to do out there. Most Trevor related missions are out there, and don't you fucking lie and say you don't enjoy launching a bus off the top of that mountain.
>>336674605
Fucking kek at the filename
>>336674624
It couldn't be the fact that /v/ is not one person right?
>>336674386
The lake is his helmets visor
>>336674624
>>336674678
Nope, because with the hivemind mentality here /v/ is in fact one person.
>>336674478
All of the states in GTA universe are islands. Liberty city is 4 medium islands. San Andreas is one big island with Los Santos, San Fierro and Las venturas in it. Vice city is one big Island. The United States is actually the Untied Islands or The United Archipelago.
>>336674765
Hive mind is an illusion. People rarely talk about the things they are satisfied with.
>>336674605
still not seeing it
It's a bad map, but still one of my favorite GTAs.
There was more to it than actual size. San Andreas had three separate cities with different personalities. Characters would refer to these other cities, and you can actually travel to them.
Moving from Los Santos county to Blaine County didn't really feel like anything.
>>336669975
Because you don't own any rights to the IP and had no say in its development.
If you don't like it, then don't buy it.

It's leonardo from TMNT dumbass
>there's people who didn't like the underwater exploration
smfh desuit's pretty much the only redeembable part of the boring ass map
>>336669975
You should be mad about gta 5 custom servers being shut down. Its the whole reason I bought the game in the first place.
Fuck rockstar. You can get your money once but i'll never buy gta 6.
>>336671383
Down to how well the map is designed. IV was a great map. V is the worst map in vidya history.
>>336673336
But they were well designed. V's map was designed by an autist who intentionally made it unfun as possible.
Next map is this one
>>336674838
>People rarely talk about the things they are satisfied with
Exactly, which is why nobody here bitched about GTA V's map or, say, Witcher 3's map when those games first came out. Cue a few months later and suddenly everyone's up in arms about "muh content".
Are you seriously denying the fact that there's a shitload of contrarians on this board?
>>336674605

>>336671913
no?
>>336675020

You have got to be fucking baiting.
>>336675045
>that awkward desert place that's just there because las venturas is supposed to be in a desert
>all those roads that make no sense
This map is shit, what are the black parts supposed to be? Sea, walls or just void?
>>336672747
Meant gameplay.
SR3 made me poopsock the game because of the missions. After the game was over, I realized how absolutely awful it was though, especially the shooting gameplay.
>>336674804
An archipelago has 3 sides of water. The US doesn't.
WATCH_DOGS BEST GAME
No seriously you guys should give it a try. It doesn't have air vehicles that you can drive, but the weapon selection, AI realism, and map are much better than GTAV IMHO.
>>336677436
Do I look like I give a fucking flying shit? Fucking nerd.

>>336675048
Nobody bitched about GTA V's map because they all were probably waiting for the PC launch.
There's a strawpoll where like 90% of /v/ mains PC.
>>336676749
>that awkward desert place that's just there

Not until they let you hide as a civilian in multiplayer with no blimps on.
>>336677436

You're thinking of a peninsula.

You're retarded.

There's like 80,000 straw polls because some newfag makes one every week.

The only time I enjoyed myself in SA is when I was driving around to my own music, especially in the boonies. Would I enjoy V?
>>336677968
Watch Dogs has blips as well?
Fucking game design.
>>336677678
lmao i know right xD
rust is such a great game too
I want the next big game to have an in-game DMV where you have to sit and wait to get an id before you can play, muh realisim!
>>336673497
I see a person sitting down staring into a bowl that is placed on their knees.
I feel like it was a mistake to have the map be open from the beginning rather than locking off parts like the previous titles.
>>336678094
Yes.
>>336669975
why do i see the merchant?
>>336676749
Never seen a "desert" that's only like 10 miles across
>>336677968
They do? Have you not played the game? It Doesn't show off your nametag until they have profiled you when hacking or tailing, and they only show it in free roam after you aim your camera at them. (With adversarial free roam on).
>>336677451
Found the Ubishill
>>336678637
You're only partially correct.
Even looking in the general direction reveals a large name tag.
You can't hide in a crowd assassins creed style.
They also need to sync player models, like wtf.
>>336671383
San Andreas was 3 cities split up with desert and country in between
>>336677678
>San Andreas is the best GTA!
>Has the exact same issue
>>336678646
>Come into a thread talking about a specific issue the OP has with a game
>Address issues that other people have with the game by suggesting an alternative that doesnt have these issues
Obviously a shill, nobody can recommend games on /v/ based on having specific qualities desired by the OP and other posters in the thread. They HAVE to be a paid poster from the publisher.
>>336677451
"Look at all these mechanics we don't use" the game
Go home shill, ubisoft abandoned watch dogs day 1. You won't get your paycheck
>>336677960
Deserts are generally near mountains
Like Nevada/Arizona
>>336678823
That hasn't been my experience. You have to aim your crosshair pretty close to their model or car to reveal their nametag, then if they go around a corner it disappears.
>>336677964
5 years later, still mad. Fuck
>>336679335
Alright fine I will go home. Nobody can stand people talking about games on /v/, its like its not a board about video games or something. Fucking fags.
To be honest, I would rather take Los Santos and split it up into three distinct, smaller cities just like GTA: SA did. However, I really enjoyed feeling of GTA V as well. I still like the map design.
>>336675120
V is set in Los Santos, which is a part of San Andreas.
>>336678094
>Would I enjoy V?
V's most enjoyable parts are strictly outside of the city, so yes. Ignore OP's shitposting.
>>336679129
>defending Watch Dogs
>actually recommending people play Watch Dogs when good games exist
Yes, must be a shill.
>>336674804
technically the whole earth is just islands.
why was los santos an island?
in gta sa it was connected to 2 other big cities...
every other gta spin off they depicted the city of their respective original game 1:1
but not in this game, why
>>336681049
Because they wanted to make it more like Los Angeles, ie. shit.
>>336681170
that's dumb though
i bet they knew people loved SA
would've loved SAs map with gta Vs engine, but no...
>>336681043
Fuggg
>>336681257
No you wouldn't, because SA's map is tiny as fuck. I'm hoping the next game set in SA will have all three as huge cities with their own distinct vibe.
>>336669975
I actually enjoyed spending most of my time in these two areas.
You're correct that the rest of the map is fucking nothing.
Like if they put another city on the north side with something interesting then at least we'd have a reason to go up there.
>>336680584
>>336671694
Los Santos is the city at the bottom of San Andreas
OK lets break this down
GTA hasn't been consistent with the game world.
The first GTA, the topdown one, takes place in San Andreas, which seems to be based on San Francisco
GTA:San Andreas takes place in a new San Andreas, this one is multiple islands connected by bridge. This San Andreas is a state and hosts the cities Los Santos, San Fierro, and Las Venturas, an amalgamation of LA, SanFran, and Vegas.
GTAV redid this all yet again. Now, San Andreas is a single island, and is just based on Los Angeles and general counties of California. Los Santos, the city, is at the bottom of the island.
Personally, I love both iterations, but I think I prefer GTA V, as it does a great job of feeling like a real, fully populated and developed world, but I can still pick out the similarities to the real world California.
>>336681952
The reason they're all different is that GTA does not have a unified universe with all the games. 1 and 2 are a universe, 3 through SA are a universe, and IV and V are a universe.
>>336673336
Fucking Bullshit
All the cities had several different layouts and style for different areas.
Los Santos has a hood area, a downtown L.A. area, a Hollywood boulevard area with Hollywood hills, and a very extensive beach side area with a Pier.
San Fierro has a Chinatown area, a fucking Castro area, beach side area with an extensive pier district, a downhill San Fran style area, etc.
Las Venturas has a Casino Strip area with several Casinos you can enter, a Vegas suburb area and more.
All of these have airports and other unique locations you can interact with. No other map is GTA history has the sheer variety of layout and designs of GTA:SA
>>336669975
What makes you think you're better than the developer? What makes your opinion higher than theirs?
