Life is complicated.
I killed people, smuggled people, sold people.
Perhaps here, things will be different.This trailer came out 9 years ago man, and GTA IV came out 8 years ago.
Still one of the best teaser trailers ever. It showed off some impressive lighting effects and tech for a detailed open world game at the time.
And when it came out, it proved that the series could handle a mature story and pull it off surprisingly well (though at the cost of the series' original wackiness)
YELLOW CAR
Niko, Johnny, and Luis were the most interesting and fleshed out GTA characters in the entire series.
Come. At. Me.
>>323703403
way better than the 3 characters in V
kind of funny that 4 did that better than V considering that was the whole gimmick of GTAV
>>323704416
IV had 3 characters that got all their character growth in self contained stories. V had 3 characters that all had to share a story.
Should Rockstar continue having 3 main characters, they need to take more from IV's model.
Also, posting best song.

>I'm a soldier who hated my old life of crime and wants to make an honest life in America with my cousin
>So I'm gonna perform drug deals, and kill and steal a lot
GTA stories are always fucking retarded
>>323704859
Being reductionist is never good for making an argument, my man.
You also neglected to mention that Niko actually made it out of his life of crime.
Niko sucked. Most cliche "revenge is bad" character arc ever.still a better game than V tho
>people getting nostalgic over gtav
this sub gets worse and worse by the day
>>323704859
He was there to find out who betrayed his old squad.
DOES ANYONE HERE WANT TO PLAY GTA4 + EXPANSIONS ON PC
THE MULTIPLAYER STILL WORKS
>>323703257
I fucking loved how if there was someone in the cab already, you could just pull them out and the driver would just shrug and be like "well whatever where do you wanna go?"
>>323705509

you guys play this
I always thought GTA was like call of duty for niggers
its weird to think that there are normies that don't know they are normies
The first GTA V trailer came out over 4 years ago.
We are actually due a GTA VI trailer this year if the differences in time between the release of IV and the first trailer of V are anything to go by.
2008 = GTA IV's release
2011 = First GTA V trailer.
2013 = GTA V's release
2016 = GTA VI's trailer.
The Seventh generation of Pokemon will likely start being revealed this year.
It has been 10 years since the PS3 was announced to 599 US dollary doos.
The last time we actually seriously thought HL3 would be announced was at E3 2010 when Valve promised us a "Surprise" which turned out to be Portal 2. That was 6 years ago.
It has been 5 years since the year of our lord 2011.
It has actually been 9 years since the release of Halo 3 and the height of XBL kiddies even though you still think it was a couple of years ago
Moot has been away from 4chan for nearly a year.
[spoiler[feel old yet?
Nico is like the slavshit villain from Behind Enemy Lines, except worse.
GTA 4 had the best theme
>>323705218
Literally nobody in this thread has done that.
>The Frohman mod was never made
>>323703037
Saints Row does the wacky shit now
I never really understood why the car destruction got dumbed down in V. It made crashes look so much better.

GTAVI is going to be really really really different
>>323706039
Memory limitations. Same exact reason why there aren't any restaurants/bars/nightclubs, the systems just couldn't handle anything more.
>>323706274
That's a shame, it makes me wonder what could've been if Rockstar had waited the extra year to put it on the PS4 and Xbone.
>>323706453
Eh, I don't mind. I assume GTA VI will blow it out of the water anyway.
>>323705340
Tempted to get back into The Lost and Damned, really.
Too bad I fucking hate the leveling for multiplayer.
>>323706532
Where do you think it's going to be set, anon?
Does anyone else not want GTA VI to be set in Vice City?
The 80's theme is so fucking played out, and all the new games have been set in the present day.
I think Washington DC would be the best choice, orLondon.
>tfw pointing a gun at a driver and they exit the vehicle slowly with their hands up, then run away
Why the fuck did they remove this in V?
Everyone seems like a robot in V compared to IV.

>>323706910
Do you launch it through Steam?
I can only play IV when I open it from the game folder.

>>323701678
>tfw no GTA V DLC telling the story of how Mike met Trevor and Brad
>>323707014
>Why would there be a Disney World?
Because given how GTA games grow, I expect VC to give us an entire state like SA or cities with countryside like V.
>>323701678There will be CONSEQUENCES!
>>323706634
>Washington D.C.
Could be a lot of fun doing more crooked deeds for politicians, I'm kind of hoping for it to be in Chicago or Las Vegas though.
I wish they went back to doing installments like with 3, VC and SA with the same engine but exploring new places.
>>323706820
What is even in Boston?
I'd want DC because you have all the crime and also all the Politicians.
You'd start out as you normally do in GTA working with petty thugs and by the end you'd be taking out dirty Politicians and even the President.
That would get all the News networks mad.

I would like a House of Cards-esque GTA but Boston works as well. Irish mob, unique culture, great architecture, pretty vast difference from LA overall.

There were tugboats and skateparks?
Where??

Why did I move here? I guess it was the weather.

please fuck off

m8 all those cities are nothing alike except for the fact that they have large populations and are located on the east coast
>>323707882
having been to literally every city on that list, yes they are
>>323707284
That's a heavily romanticised version of the actual GTA IV online.

then I turned it off and never played it again.
>>323707567
>this was over 4 years ago
Fuck I remember just being hyped that planes were back and dogs might be companions.
Still pissed that they never did anything with animals outside of using Chop every now and then, I was really hoping they'd add a pet shop and apartment furnishings in the next gen versions of V.
I still remember the first time I crashed my car and Niko went flying through the windshield

I want a completely customisable protag again.

>>323708197
You can get bit in the leg by dogs in GTA V?
>tfw still no animals in Online even in next gen despite RDR doing it on outdated hardware
>>323707997
>playing with airportfags
>playing with friendly fire on
there's your problem
>>323704859
This issue is addressed at the end of the storyline when youmeet Darko.The so-called "armour piercing question" posed during that mission, when Nikosnaps at Darko for betraying him and his friends for $1000is "How much do you charge to kill someone?" and Niko is explicitly called a hypocrite. What the player does with this realization is another factor that goes into the final choice.
>>323708418
Funny you mention it, a recent update activated animal AI in online mode.
When you spawned them with a trainer/menu, they just flopped around and ragdolled as if dead. Now when you spawn them they do animal things, which implies they might be added to online.
>>323708418
The only reason the next gen version of GTA Online doesn't have animals is because they wanted parity between them, and now they just can't go back and change the whole thing because that would require rewriting part of the code.
>>323707997
>he only played freemode
Did you even touch the other game modes? Cops and Crooks was the best.
>actually met one of my best friends during a game of Mafiya Work

Game is fun as fuck.
So, PCbros, who is down for GTA4 + expansions tonight?
>>323707754
Having stayed in NY for 2 weeks and Boston for a week, I can tell you're a lying cunt.

Oh I'm sorry, you're just having a laugh.
>>323701678
IT'S NOT DIFFERENT AT ALL, IS IT, STEVE?
>>323709042
Save for residential areas, each of those cities appeals almost exclusively to middle-class tourists. They have the same dining and sightseeing venues, many of which are ran by the same groups of people. Even their city laws are pretty much carbon copies of one another. Go chug nyquil.

Nah m8, I'd rather see a Rockstar version of somewhere up North. Imagine what stereotypes and piss taking they could do with somewhere like Liverpool, Manchester, Newcastle etc.
>trying to play EFLC on my pc
>forgot that I made some new password for social club because they had a breach a few months ago
>tfw can't play online now
Fuck Social Club man, there is literally no point to this shit other than to be an annoyance
>>323703403
until V.
>>323710097
So change it again?
>>323706634
I want a new location like Seattle. A game with a very large forest just in the top right corner or something like that. I want a smaller area with a banshee feel to it.
>>323709615
Fuck all happens up north though.
How can you have a crime game set in somewhere like Newcastle? Is the antagonist going to be some pisshead Geordie you see in the town every Friday night?
Even London is a stretch.
>>323706087
Too bad the shooting in SR3 is fucking garbage.

>>323710430
Well they don't have to make it an exact copy of the city, but more of a general northern place. One of the things that annoy me about GTA IV and V is how the cities are pretty much exact replicas of the city they're based on. If Rockstar where to combine a lot of elements of different Northern cities/regions i think they could make something really good. Then again maybe I'm just a biased Scouser who wants to see Liverpool in a game for once.
>>323705697
Here's to (You),Nicola and Bart.
>pjanoo starts playing
You know i dislike how everyone is shitting (for good reasons, but still) on some specific details that not present in GTAV and that were present in GTA IV, but not the contrary.
I mean, glass destruction is so good in GTA V, and it's a detail too, yet you never hear anyone talking about it.
>>323711213
Online killed a lot of the love for V
All they had to do was copy and paste IV's multiplayer options with V's beautiful world and abilities and it would have been perfect.

If you people want to be edgelords, it's the right choice.
The only issue with nico to me was his seldomly OVERLY ''manly red army soviet man'' stereotypes, like him telling one of his dates ''NOU, I DONT WATCH MOVIEEZ, I KENT TAKE GROWN MEN PLEY DRESSINK AP GEIMZ SIRIUSLY"
>>323707284
I know how you feel. I had a small gang and we used playboys apartment and the majestic hotel as bases.
I really liked GTA IV, the solo and story felt a lot more fulfilling than GTA 5.
Shame playing on PC means having to deal with shitty performances, Securom and GFWL.
>>323708292

GTA V had one of the best reveals I've seen. No embarrassing E3 demonstration, no interviews, no dragged out buildup, just a week-long countdown and a trailer. Everyone flipped their shit man, it was great.
R* really outdid themselves with GTA V in general.
So were we playing GTA4 on PC today or what
>>323712949
>shitty performances
Don't remind me. GTA IV was an absolute trainwreck for a good while, until they somewhat sorted their shit with two or three patches.
If anything, GTA V was a monumental improvement on that aspect.
>>323713203
>>323708292
I wish they didn't focus so much on GTA online, I'd have been happy with multiplayer like GTA IV and Red Dead honestly. It just pisses me off knowing hard work + money + fucktons of motion capture was wasted on Online when it could've been spent on GTA VI or Red Dead 3.
>>323713302
The trailer set to Skeletons by Stevie Wonder was maybe the most hyped I've ever seen /v/ about a trailer. The Skyrim reveal from the 2010 VGAs is the only thing I've seen come close.
>>323708543
But that was always dumb since it was posed as some sort of OOOH YOU'VE BECOME A MONSTER when you were a shitty person the whole game. You could argue that it was showcasing how trapped into that life Nico was, but it really just reeks of an excuse to handwave their gameplay being at odds with their story.
>>323713543
take two needs that shark card money, goy
here's your 10 million dollar yacht and plane, only $100 each
>>323713590
>OOOH YOU'VE BECOME A MONSTER
m8, pay attention. Niko acknowledged that he was a monster long before the game even began.
>>323712650
That's how some people are here,Rockstar did a decent job with Niko.
(To clarify,we're talking about someone who lived in a border village.My village only got electricity in the mid 80s.You might be able to understand it better if you look at it like that rather than 'tough guy red army man')
If I have one problem it's that Roman knows Serbian better than Niko.Listening to some words being mispronounced that badly really took me out of the whole story sometimes.
It would have all been avoided if they took a native speaker to work with them.
>>323713680
I don't care about the microtransactions, I just wish more focus was put on SP content. I'm not against multiplayer in principle, I just think it destroys the atmosphere R* created. I don't want to see poorly animated, laggy 13 year olds running around with colorful icons above their heads, it's messy and breaks immersion.
>>323713741
Exactly, so the whole story just falls apart because you realize his "ooh I want a better life" is just selfish bullshit meant to make him feel better. He's a garbage person the entire game and in either ending, and it feels like a waste of time.
I like IV quite a bit but the story just was a flatline for me.
>>323713489
I can run GTA V better than I can run GTA IV. As fun as IV was, it always ran like shit for me.
>>323713545

GTA V hype threads were the shit, I remember making this pic right after that trailer came out.
>>323713741
>the mission when Roman gets kidnapped and he absolutely loses his shit during the shootout
>>323714025
He does get a better life, though. He drops out of the criminal life for good some time after GTA4. Pay attention to the lore.
Well, GTA V was the first Rockstar game featuring multiple "main" characters with their own background and stories. So in a sense, if it's a bit shallow and uninteresting it's not the end of the world.
>tfw getting Packie in your crew in V and he talks about his adventures in Liberty City with Niko
I wish they had more heists in single player so you could talk to him more
