lol, it spreads like wild fire... anyone wanna give dup some props on this on their facebook post here?? i would but you know, i have to scout the competition and would prefer not to get banned ... EDIT: nah nevermind, lol, let this stew brew for a while...

Damn straight! LOL I think these guys are the ones painting the mural: http://colossalmedia.com/ Same guys who did the GTA murals/scavanger hunts with IV. May be wrong though...

It's not covered at all (anymore): Well aside from the strategically placed platform...

Fuck it I'm done I quit

You're a dumbass. You really think that would use a still shot from the first trailer on the cover? And you can tell its not the same chopper.

ahahaha Dup went viral. This calls for a celebration

I'll just leave this here...

I don't really know too much about the metal gear universe however that guy with the bandages calls himself Ishmael, Ishmael was the narrator and protagonist in moby dick, moby dick was a sperm whale, we see a sperm whale of fire in the vids. What this means I have no idea possibly nothing but its quite the coincidence if you ask me being as the Ishmael guy seems to be the narrator of the escape etc Edit He even says "call me Ishmael" this is the opening lines of moby dick The book moby dick is all about good and bad, god and godlessness, social standing and class, ahab also lost a limb. Now from what I read is this game is about a good guy turning into a bad guy and all the decisions that go hand in hand with this transition. Again it could all be nothing but seems like too much of a coincidence. The line "call me Ishmael" the whale of fire, good and bad, the lost limb.

Started my first ever playthrough yesterday. I am a level 2 Nord, I gave him a mohawk and some Scottish war paint. I've just been exploring and killing bandits etc.

GTA Car Modification Car modification should come back to GTA and it should be like no other car customization ever seen in a video game. Here's a draft for an extreme, over-the-top, and expansive idea I've created. Tell me what you think. Summary Cars should have an extensive modification system by being able to buy custom parts from multiple retailers for different types of vehicles. The custom parts could be rewards from missions as well. Also you should be able to take parts from vehicles you hi Jack or buy and put them in other vehicles. Such as dropping a banshee's engine in a dukes or the exhaust system of a comet and put it in a ballista. (A) Garage(s) should be able to be purchased at some point in the game where you can store up to 5 cars while you work on them. Rims, rim sizes, tires and the ride height should all be used as aspects of modification. Custom parts and chassis should be able to be created or purchased. Everything in a vehicle should be customizable including numerous interior options such as gps's, seats, steering wheels, sound systems, and gauges. After making your vehicles you should be able to sell them for a profit based on the quality, speed, uniqueness and sex appeal of a vehicle. The Garage When you park a vehicle in the garage you own, there should be no specific way to park it and when you leave it there it stays in the same place. To interact with the car to take parts from it or add to it, all you should have to do is walk up to the desired vehicle, press the interaction button listed and a menu of options will pop up. The menu would include engine, chassis, transmission, wheels and dimensions, body, paint shop, and interior. Select one of the headers and subsections would come up with the different sections of the selected header. for example you select engine, another list would come up with options to select different parts of the engine to mod or to take the whole engine out of the vehicle and place it on the shelf*. (the shelf is the place where all purchased or acquired parts will go to, to be selected an used at a later time in different vehicles) once done modding the selected, go back to the main options menu for the selected vehicle and you should have the choice to sell the vehicle, scrap it or leave it for future use. New garages should be able to be purchased or the garage should be upgradable with better furnishings, tools, stands, lifts and options for how to store un-used vehicles so you can fit more vehicles in the garage such as lifts. The car saving system in your garage will consist of saving five vehicles to one mod garage. If you lose, blow up, abandon, impound, bury, drown, crush, smash, or whatever else you manage to do to your car while running from the 5-0, you will be able to access your saved car from the garage menu and be able to retrieve it and/or repair the car for a price. The car saving option in your garage is directly linked to your online profile (details listed in online section) Parts Cars and parts should be able to be bought at stores, fabricated in the garage (such as the sunshine auto side missions in VC), received from missions, and/or purchased at junk yards where you can take a tow truck or pick-up and take vehicles for parts or just pick up parts for the cars you have. The vehicles that show up in the junk yard should be ones off the street that you have totalled by killing the driver in an "accident". There also should be a few unique vehicles you get either from missions or the junk yard that if you restore you get and achievement or trophy. These unique vehicles could give you a large cash sum if you sell them or special benefits if you keep them. Some parts could also be ordered off the internet and/or may be illegal and if the cops catch you with them they may arrest you. Another possible idea would be that you could collect different blueprints hidden around the city where if you collected them, they would give you a list of things from different vehicles that you needed to create a mystery object. some of these mystery objects could include hood mounted machine guns, knee cappers, plated metal windows, oil slicks, wheelie bars, and spiked bumpers (overall killing machine parts). It could be a bit of fun mowing peds over with a truck that looks something out of Death Race. One extremely well hidden blueprint could be the one to making a secret vehicle that has an achievement or trophy connected to it. Dealerships Vehicles could be purchased from retailers throughout the city from the retailer the cars maker is associated to. For example you would have a déclassé dealership selling Stallions, Sabres, Etc., and at the dealerships you can purchase a new vehicle that is in the show room or on the lot or you can also order one off the dealerships website. The website will allow you to build the car with whatever options you desire and whatever color you wish to have. This option will cost extra. The date of the cars expected arrival will be placed on your organizer on your cell phone or you can have the vehicle shipped directly to your garage for an extra cost. This will place the vehicle outside of your garage and will eliminate the risk of you losing your new car driving it back to a save point. At used car dealers, you can buy what else? Used cars! This is also the place you would take a car from your garage that you wish to sell, running or not. Buying vehicles from used dealers could be a buyer beware situation where you are not quite sure what you’re going to get. Sometimes you can buy a cheap parts car that turns out to have a V-10 engine under the hood, or a nice looking Banshee that has no engine at all. During the game, an online auto trader will become available where you can find a wide arrange of vehicles to choose from. Again this is a buyer beware situation. These cars can be shipped to your garage or picked up from the owner. Online Multiplayer In Free Mode, Races and a possible new mode called Car Show (Rate My Ride) your modified cars from story mode can be loaded to your online profile by an option in the garage in story mode. Free Mode You can select from five of your saved vehicles and load them into an online free mode match, allowing you to always have your favourite cars readily available to you. If you are killed by one of your fellow gamers (odds are you will be) you can re load the very same vehicle into the game. There will be select spawn points for cars and you will only be allowed one at a time (reduce game lag) but you will be able to trade them for another one of your saved vehicles. Races Races will allow you to race against your friends and the community by entering your vehicle into a race with other vehicles of the same class as the one you have nominated. You can compete for cash or pink slips in a head to head match. Cash will be carried over to your single player game so you can spend it on whatever you desire. If either you, or your opponent win in a pink slip race, you would have the option of taking the other persons car, or a cash reward instead. Car Show Car show is a new game mode much like rate my ride where you can view, rate a purchase other peoples vehicles, but a new feature is being able to take a vehicle you are considering buying and test driving the vehicle in a blank version of the game map, giving you a chance to see if the car is right for you. This game mode gives you the chance to flaunt your best designs and where your friends are allowed to view your vehicles easily by selecting your name in the online mode options list.

now fitty is famous!!! http://www.ign.com/a...ed-by-nyc-mural now there's gonna be a bunch of people out there taking pics... thanks IGN...

Awesomeness. Now put your uni-skills to work and recreate the missing artworks.

Okay this is a more accurate high-res image of what i think it'll look like. Still haven't got those new concepts though.

This is the real thing.

it's gone from gtagaming's facebook page... all 300 likes and 30-some shares... i think they figured it out finally ... EDIT: check it out, dupz0r's handy work can be spotted twice in this thread alone... http://www.gtagaming.com/forums/showthread.php?t=140251

on my way to riften, level 14... it's been a while since i last played... and a while is like 3 days...

seriously though, this is a good day to be a baseball fan ...

Hooked another one.

I love falling 100's of metres into water and surviving. I remember trying to get a trophy in Far Cry 3 for free-falling a certain distance and surviving. And I think that most people probably got it after getting the wingsuit and jumping out of the plane during a mission halfway through the story. But I decided to try and do it ealier using a hang-glider, and after trying several times and not falling far enough I finally found a place high enough up that would give me the trophy. I then surveyed the ground for a source of water to fall into, and could only see a tiny pool at the base of a series of cliffs. So I jumped off the edge of the mountain with my hang glider, trying to match up my momentum with my release, and my position on the mini map relative to the water. Then at the right time I released and started hurtling towards the ground at a hundred miles an hour, trying to control my decent towards the ground by positioning my body mid air. It seemed like it would be a miracle if I made it into the pool of water, and as I got closer to the ground I barely missed the first set of cliffs by inches and the second one by even less. And then BAM! I crashed right into the edge of the pool travelling right to the bottom in nano-seconds. As I came back to the surface a crocodile attacked me before I could get my breath back and almost killed me ( due to low health ). But I made a leather pelt out of his ass after shanking it too death. This experience was one of the best I had in the game, it was exhilarating and made me feel like I had actually accomplished something meaningfull. Compare this with the Black Ops 2 wingsuit on rails part, where you had practically no control over what you were doing, and the entire section ultimately felt pointless. Far Cry 3 is an example of how you do a game right, giving the player complete control over their actions and fate.

I'll be playing Hitman Absolution, Sleeping Dogs, Assassin's Creed 3 ( still haven't gotten around to finishing it ), Dishonoured, Dead Island ( still haven't finished it either ), Mass Effect 3 ( almost finished ME2 ), and lastly Bioshock Infinite. I'll pick up Company of Heroes 2, Beyond Two Souls and The Last Of Us, along with any other good games between now and September. Then I'll have a full month of GTA V gaming before Rome 2 comes out in October. The Second half of this year is going to be unbelievable, with my most anticipated games being GTA V followed closely by Rome 2. Both of which will give me months of non stop entertainment. Then the PS4 will come out November/December, and with it all the next gen game content ( Killzone Shadow Fall, Infamous Second Son, Watch Dogs etc ). And who knows what we will be getting in 2014, Fallout 4 anyone?

Honestly the ending to this season was poor. It's what you expect when its a two part season finale.

Sounds like Eye of the Needle with Donald Sutherland, mate.

Very nice looking Dup

People everywhere believe it's real. Good job, DuP! Hm...I'm not good with Twitter. Where can I see their responses to fans? EDIT: Nevermind.

on a twitter response... but yea, i find it amusing too to see the reaction on a dupz0r fake ...

Wow, 76 Likes. Also, when did Rockstar say it'd be done in the next day or so?

I'll have to agree. It makes the feel of the game come to us as more realistic, which takes the gamers and makes them feel like they are really in the game. Hopefully some house editing options are available too. Since GTA5 has waited this long I expect there to be more than we can handle. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This posting is by Brandon Harrell, from a small town in Texas, and I absolutely love GTA. I have bought ever single version of the game for ever console since it has started. I am definitely a die-hard fan. Mason Dube has made a very compelling point here, it would be so amazing to be able to up our cars performance wise just with like doing the body muscle. The options to put in 2.7L .3.5L, body work, interior exterior, dual exhaust and everything would be so fucking amazing. I joined this forum just to post my thoughts on in and I hope they are heard. It seems like a whole bunch of people want this done. I wish for there to be real dates with women, ones you can get to know, maybe ones you meet just by talking on the street. You can , for instance, talk to them and get their number. Call them- set up a date-, etc. Maybe adding marriage would be a step too far but if that is an idea I would like it to be there as well. As a personal player, with my own creativity, the storyline is what I love. Everything connects to the story, but I want there to be a part after the game is completed too you know. I am so into the storyline every single game that comes out and when I start playing it I am literally glued to it. It takes me to a new realm of creativity and individuality. So my personal wishes for the game are : 1. girlfriends tie in more, bodybuilding, car performance, and also something to take place after the story line, things to do, or even exterior missions and goals players can complete. Thank you all so much for my time, and I hope I haven't bothered you any. -Hardcore GTA fan -Hardcore fan of the franchise as a whole. Yall are guaranteed my money. p.s.- "MAKE THIS THE SICKEST GTA EVER TO COME OUT AND LETS BLOW AWAY COD IIBLACKOPS, LETS SELL 10-20MILLION COPIES FIRST DAY" WOOO!!! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------The Mad Dooby Rockstar Support Michael S.

Nah, that was my mockup, not real

Other than the new multiple main characters thing, music during missions is something that I'm very excited about. I'm curious to see how they're going to handle this. Personally, I'd love to see Michael, Trevor and Franklin each have their own theme song. This is something that's done in TV series or movies a lot too. For example in Lost when there's a scene with Jack, you'd hear the same kind of music going in the background and each time they used the song, they added on to it and made different versions of the same song. I'd like to see something like that in GTA V. The only problem with that is, how they would handle the music when you switch to another character during a mission.. So many questions, so many days to go until the release..

You're talking about surviving a fall like it's a bad thing. Why would you want to die when jumping into water? You'd jump out of a helicopter, land in the water, die, say "oh, look at that," and never bother with it again. Dying when falling into water falls into the category of 'pointless realism.' It wouldn't benefit the game in any way if they 'fixed' it.

So GZ is separate to TPP. I wonder if they'll do what Sony did with Gran Turismo and give you a short prologue, almost like a demo of the game for a small price, and then TPP comes out a couple of months later. Or if they'll do it so you pay for both at he same time, get the first part and then have to wait for the next... http://www.joystiq.c...akeout-hayters/ This is a long read, but it's a good theory about the game, that i found on a MGS forum. Pretty solid theory imo. Gameplay sectin from the conference

Why did Michael really move here? I guess it was his bad gas. Back at it again, I'll probably stop making these when R* restarts their marketing campaign but for now here's fanart number 8 I call this one Home Straight.

I think Los Santos is to the right.

ah but you can definatly do beter than mafia 2, and knowing rockstar they'll one up everyone else hopefully. might not be my idea but just some level of modification. i liked my idea cause your interacting more with your vehicle and its alittle less machine like. its alittle more realistic is what im trying to say. oh and did your car color ever lock in gta 4 from the pay in spray? and did it always happen to be the uggliest paint color ever
