What if the cause of seperation of different portions of the map was forest fires? That's a very plausible, realistic approach. The athorities have decided to seal off parts of the msp due to massive forest fires. All citizens in towns near these locations are advised to stay inside and wait until further notice. You see massive smoke clouds rising trees blocking the road firefighters working as hard as they can to douse the flames. The ground is covered in sut and burned branches...etc etc

There ya go. Getting your game on now.

Level 5. I've gotten good at killing raiders while hidden.

So uh, fun?

They should involve some unique stuff which other games haven't based yet. It might be hard but make a lot more buildings enterable by walking in. Activities to do like sports,gaming and lifely hobbies. Surfing, Basketball, Jet Ski, Parachuting etc.

This is a good estimation imo. I don't think it will be much bigger than this(maybe more countryside/desert). The river/lake is well placed too, through a mountain range. I'd be happy with a map this size, if it is densely detailed like IV.

depends on how you define relevant. if you look at it from a gameplay perspective, you could also settle down and call most parts liberty city wasted space. you could condense the locations of the gameplay to an island about the size of brooker, with a little space in between to give the illusion of actually moving between them. to deliver a certain feeling to the player, both gta 4 and san andreas did their job very well. liberty really gives you the feeling of an nyc-ish metropolis with vast urban areas, while san andreas delivered the feeling of travelling through a state, especially thanks to the "wasted space" - I'd rather call it landscape, as this adds so much to the illusion of a whole state. of course, again, condense it to the gameplay-relevant areas and you can cope with a fraction of the area used.

No one said it was. And we now. Did you know that the video game that this topic is about isnt real life? it's a video game. I know the graphics are pretty good so it can be confusing.

Definitely, and bring back the garages at safehouses, it's so annoying coming outta your apartment and the fucking cab driver hitting your rides! I hope you can go under water again like in San Andreas.

Continued the file I started a month or so ago, before my cat got sick. I'm only Level 4, been focusing on sneak, lockpick, repair, smallguns etc. I'll check perks next time I'm in. I was just exploring a new part of the map, found some raiders. And a flamer.

Finally got back into this last night. This thread has tempted me.
