I would like the following jobs to be in GTA V: ~ Police Officer ( like the Vigilante missions in previous games ) ~ Paramedic ( like in GTA San Andreas ) ~ Fire-fighter ( also like in GTA San Andreas ) ~ Life-Guard ( rescuing drowning swimmers ) ~ Animal Control ( dealing with dangerous animals like Bears/ Cougars etc ) ~ Bouncer ( for a nightclub/ dealing with violent patrons who at the end of the night, after dealing with them come back with weapons and friends too attack you ) ~ Security Guard ( preventing theft/ assaults and vandalism in an enterable mall ) ~ Taxi Driver ( like in Crazy-Taxi or the past GTA's ) ~ Parcel Delivery ( using a bike to delivery packages around the city against a time limit ) ~ Crop Duster ( like the name implies, dust farmer's fields for some extra money ) ~ Army Reserve/ National Guard ( navigate obstacle courses, fire at targets, engage with other reservists in one on one combat, learn to operate heavy machinery like artillery and tanks. Fun and you get paid for it ) ~ Tabloid Journalist ( annoy the shit out of the local celebrity's by stalking their every movement on the street, and breaking into their homes to collect evidence for interesting news articles ) ~ Train Driver ( Drive a passenger or freight train to it's destinations within the time limit, and without derailing and killing all the passengers ) ~ Truck Driver ( Deliver your precious cargo to locations around Los Santos and it's countryside within the time limit ) ~ Spear Fisherman ( hunt different marine animals in and around the coral reefs off of Los Santos/ the bigger and rarer the animal the more money you receive from selling it ) ~ Bug Exterminator ( Get rid of rat and roach infestations from houses all around the City using poison gas ) ~ Repo Man ( Franklin's job of using any and all means of getting vehicles back from deadbeats who are behind on their repayments ) ~ Enforcer ( Muscle work for a Criminal Syndicate who need help collecting protection money from businesses and individuals ) ~ Drug Dealer ( could be made into a full-blown drug economy where you can not only make your own product, but also steal from competitors, do missions to disrupt their operations, and do deals with major suppliers from outside of Los Santos. After which missions need to be done to escort your product too you warehouses in the city, using drug boats, and then fast cars while being pursued by either rival cartels or the police. A lot of this would be kind of similar too the game Scarface: The World Is Yours ) ~ Loan Shark ( Loan people money which collects interest over time. Go and break legs and heads if the payments become overdue ) That's about all I can think of for now.

Fuck.

The heist process inspired me to make this.

Rockstar has always used innovative new gameplay features for its GTA titles. However, a significant portion of these features are often times carried over from games made in between. For example, Red Dead Redemption gave players the ability for John Marston to set up camp, practically anywhere on the map. This feature came in handy, because if players were far from civilization, setting up camp was also a clever way of saving one's game. Although GTA V's setting will be more modern than the wild west of Red Dead Redemption, personally, I think it would be cool to allow players an in-game escape (while video games already provide me with an escape, it would be an escape, within an escape)... ...a place somewhere far from the busy streets of L.S., a break, not just in the scenery, but a break from the fast-paced gameplay too. From Computer and video-games' article: "Straight off the bat, it's hard not to be impressed. Incidental detail is king here:...gradually, the river edges closer, shimmering in the sunlight, and we can see two people fishing on its banks, a Winnebago parked next to them." That little bit of info right there makes me feel like the concept of a vacation might be a reality for GTA V. Now, within the recent series of trailers, Trevor's specifically, I noticed this picture popping up around the forums: I'm not sure what this is, personally it looks like some kind of trailer used for storage, with electrical hook-ups, but 'camper' wasn't the first thing that came to mind. However, in the same trailer, the scene before that had a pick-up pulling this: See where I marked it? Again, same pic, but zoomed in: This, to me, looks like a bonafide pop-up camper attached to the Truck's hitch. I also photoshopped a picture of the two side-by-side so everybody can compare and hopefully agree with me that the two units are, indeed, two different hauls. Now, what I'm hoping for more than anything, from the picture of the pop-up and from the 'Winnebago' described in the article, is that these camping-related vehicles will actually be functional in-game. Similar to the 'tent feature' from Red Dead Redemption, I'm hoping that these camping-related vehicles will provide players with a save option for those of us who are deep within the wilderness surrounding Los Santos, far from a safe house. So these pop-ups and R/V's could be thought of as mobile safe houses. Furthermore, it would be REALLY COOL, if the bigger and more luxurious R/V's allowed players entry. So these mega R/V's could provide players with not just a save function, but could store an extra closet for clothes, a TV to watch one's favorite nature/hunting/fishing shows (come on, you know it's coming), and could store scuba gear, as well as fishing and hunting equipment. That way, when players finish up a major heist, where everything goes according to plan and whole shebang goes off without a hitch, GTA V could allow us to hitch up a pop-up to our favorite truck and just get out of the city for a while.... P.S. yes, I do realize 'camping' isn't an original idea or aspiration for this game, nor am I trying to claim it, but more so personalize it.

They're going to send stolen copies of the game to their subscribers.

Since Trevor wears a calculator watch and cooks meth like Walter White, I hope you can sell drugs.

So IGN's most recent article said there are large waves in GTA V, hopefully there are large whales to go with them. It would be so awesome to travel really far out at sea and see a huge whale leap out of the water doing that thing that they do with there tail and shit.

Stop littering man. *sheds single tear*

All I know is I wanna punch a horse in the face

I will now make an incorrect statement then. Globalization is the only way for poor people to improve their lives. Dozy, enjoy the books. gtagrl, The Postman may be a three hour Kevin Costner masturbation festival (metaphorically), but it has some moments that'll make you laugh till you cry! For example, while on the run and trying to hide his identity, the Postman (Kevin Costner) enters a town run by Tom Petty, who is in fact playing Tom Petty. Keep in mind this is a postapocolyptic world, so it becomes even funnier to think that WIllie Nelson and or Trent Reznor are also running towns. At one point Costner turns to Petty and says, "I know you, you used to be famous." This turns even more ridiculous when the Postman's identity is revealed and Petty says to Costner, "I know you. You ARE famous." And I die of laughter.

Always loved the comet for a get away car hopefully there'll do a hardtop and a soft-top. Well judging by the Aston Martin DB5 look alike in Trailer 2, it looks like you will at least get one classic British sports car. And who knows there might even be more classic cars yet to be unveiled. Pretty sure I spotted a Series 1/1A/2 Landrover in the first trailer, is a classic and it's British

Well judging by the Aston Martin DB5 look alike in Trailer 2, it looks like you will at least get one classic British sports car. And who knows there might even be more classic cars yet to be unveiled.

If you could throw people into the trunk of your car, Trevor and I would have good times with this theoretical secluded cabin.

I'd imagine Trevor would be more inclined to pull stunts of greater magnitude than quoting Peter Griffin into a PA system.

Dozy, here are a couple of recommendations: Fantasy: A Song of Ice and Fire by George R.R. Martin, more commonly known as Games of Thrones after the first book in the series. Epic must read for everyone. The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis, it's a classic and an easy read, not like GoT which has a 20-page index at the back to help you keep track of all the characters. Since you like some humour, try out the Death Gate Cycle by Weis and Hickman. It has humans, elves, dwarves, dragons and a sausage-loving dog. Each of the first four books are cool standalone stories, but the payoff comes after you've read those and get to the last three books. David Brin's The Practice Effect is a great little read, if you don't feel like starting a 7-book series like above. Fiction: You're a budding writer that likes poetry, so try out Margaret Atwood. Suggested titles for you: Year of the Flood, Alias Grace and The Handmaid's Tale. She's an incredible writer of prose and poetry, you will be inspired.

aww man, the truth is out... he's got the rape eyes... i bet you pick up a lot of hitchhikers...

In all seriousness I don't know who he is, but I'll go ahead and say no.

When this settles down, I have a couple of recommendations for Dozy.

When I immerse myself in Liberty City, when I walk past the pedestrians mashing the keys of their phones, when I laugh at the satire that the Housers cooked up, when I relish the stress release that comes from mowing down mobsters and other evildoers, I sit in awe of the fact that I'm taking in nothing more than lines of code, created by human minds. I can only dream of creating a masterpiece like the Grand Theft Auto series.

A wise man one stated "da whistles go wwwweeeeeeeeeeewwww"

A new comet! Not a 4S comet or the old 996 like gta 4. A new 991 Comet Turbo! GTA-5 "Comet Turbo S" Not that old 996 like in the gta photo they just add a gt2 wing on the old comet. A new comet would be nice it is 2013 so maybe even a Comet Gt3! 991 body style! Can make it all natural and RWD call it Comet GT

What I want is a big ass broadsword to cleave my foes in two.

With my knowledge of photo editing I decided to make something funny. My English is not so good so sorry in advance. The Images: Please Comment Which photo do you like best? Share It With Us!

I remember the time I slipped on dogshit. Broke my arm in 4 different places, my left leg in 5, I cracked 4 ribs and fractured my wrist. Good times wow, that must have been one slippery shit! I could imagine Trevor chasing a guy around the in game MacArthur park and slipping on a hot bag of shit.. Then the speed causes him to slip upward and the shit splat around the back of his head and neck, then you have to walk around smelling like shit .. Id go to Cluckin Bell and sit next to people eating. Yeah same, in fact that would be the only good reason to have the dating re-instated.... just to turn up smelling of hot shit.

Is that a Camaro^^? The green around the rims is too much for me haha. I was just playing some San Andreas and only just noticed that the car modding in that isnt too great, still glad its there. Lol so comparing SA to Midnight Clubs customization, what Rockstar said they have done with the car modding is a whole fucking lot. The more options the better, to me

No idea where to post this since we haven't got a dedicated heists topic. Remember in L.A. Noire, at the end of each case, a subtle hint at the bottom of the review screen would inform you on choices you could have made? I wonder if a similar mechanic will appear on the cork-board post-heist? "If we would've put the getaway vehicle here, things would've proceeded more smoothly," or "Maybe we shouldn't have skimped on the tech -- lots of time wasted getting into that computer".

I never really got into English literature outside of required reading for school, until recently. I read a couple of novels here and there that used to belong to my sister, until she got married and moved away. I got into a phase a couple of years ago, where I was obsessed with Medieval Arabic poetry, which isn't as obscure as it sounds. It's far superior than the crap that is Arabic poetry today, despite the fact that I do find it hilariously entertaining. I like reading the idiotic ramblings of vain aristocrats, judging and laughing at them, I guess it's why I never had the balls to write any poetry myself. I did however start writing short stories in my spare time about whacky and strange super heroes; A machete wielding Shawarma-man, that prepares delicious shawarmas by day, and slaughters dragons by night. Also a female ninja jeweler assassin that hunts immortal aliens that arrived on Earth during WWII and disguised themselves as Nazis that continue to terrify the world long after their humanly flesh disguises have begun to rot (a justification for combining zombies, nazis, and aliens in one evil menace), our heroin is part of a sacred order sworn to protect humanity using an arsenal of tools and weapons disguised as jewelry. I wrote these in English to improve my language skills, and if I do ever publish these, I want to get mass appeal. Because English is my second language, I think the stories are not that good. An American friend from college has been suggesting books for me to pick up to help tell better stories and I just started reading A Confederacy of Dunces by John Kennedy Toole, which is absolutely hilarious. It's not very helpful in writing about zombies and stuff but it's still a great read. Ignatius J. Reilly must be one of the oldest socially awkward slackers in modern pop-culture, he reminded me of a more moronic George Costanza. Any suggestion from you guys for getting started in fiction and fantasy would be most welcome.

I know it won't be in there but I'll throw my two cents in... but how about a segway a la GOB in Arrested Development?

A couple of previews have directly stated that we can customize Watercraft and Aircraft. For instance on Page 2 of the IGN Preview ~ Extract: Rockstar has included more tools in your arsenal and cars, trucks, motorcycles, watercraft, and all manner of aerial vehicles than ever before. Better yet, they’re all fully customizable and upgradeable. In the biggest title Rockstar has ever created geographically, it seems rather fitting that everything around the actual terrain is growing in scope, too. ~ Here is the link to the Article >> http://au.ign.com/ar...big-city?page=2 Oh sweet, must have missed that (and I read the IGN article too). guess I am suffering from a little information overload. That's a good question, it is on par with the question of if we will have shared safe houses and cars. It may just be a player choice. A sahred accound would be nice. maybe they could have cash and weapons stash at a shared safe house. This sounds likely. Now did we actually get confirmation of each character having their own accounts? I guess there are things I missed but I do not remember ever receiving confirmation of that.

The street addresses are obviously release dates for future GTA titles. I don't think we'll get floorplans from the in-game internet but a website, info, directions, etc I see likely.

Blonde is Michaels daughter and brunette is his wife.

Wasn't Grove Street just a set of a larger gang? So Franklin and his homiez might just be in another set.

Would be great to cruise the skies in a Shamal with a custom, cheeky message/phrase stamped on the tail. Maybe we'll be able to add an array of decals and insignias. Think tattoos for your plane/helicopter.

Ah, I can tell this particular member will provide valuable contributions to this site in the coming months.

I hope we have a spear gun of some kind. Because I would hate to have to fight a Great White Shark with just a knife.

I WANNA BE THE MONKEY!!! Franklin looks like a cop, eighth one down. Hmmm.

That ones really good.

This was made by a female on GTAforums. I lol'd. Misc roundup: http://aurum1.ru/pic...show/048468.jpg < Whoa artistic stuff.

I can see them including taxis, trains and possibly buses, but in all honesty I've always preferred to drive myself, it's not about the destination but the journey

Pussy. But seriously, a New York City large cheese pizza, a pile of thick cut applewood smoked bacon with brown sauce, Yorkshire tea with milk and honey, steak and shrimp, mashed potatoes with gravy, strawberry lemonade, and green tea mochi for dessert. Eat it all, puke over everyone, make horrible jokes, and laugh my way to the grave. You can take my life, but you can never take my sense of humor. "Do not go gentle into that good night"

Yeah why not, if they do it similar to RDR where a cutscene plays and the list of crimes you commited and damage you caused flash on the screen that would work. Sure it will be boring and tedious having to wait for the cut-scene to play out but in a way that would help simulate going to prison without going overboard with the concept, it would also give us more of an incentive not to get caught.

Like a full-on Bigfoot chase through the park, at the end of which you wake up in a pool of your own vomit in a Burger Shot bathroom?

From what everyone's saying, they want GTA V to be a "Red Dead Car" in the same way that RDR was humourously called "Grand Theft Horse".

I expect they'll be taking a lot of inspiration from the popular features in RDR. Gang hideouts, gambling, interactive free roam, social club challenges, etc. I think some of the picky features everyone asks for before a new GTA game (petrol, ability to do x, a mission where you are able to do y, etc) are going to be ignored in favour of 'social' features, challenges, leaderboards, and suitable rewards (avatar awards in RDR were cool. Shame there were only nine, but they were probably testing the water). Will be interesting to see how they handle outfits - will they stick to GTA IVs idea of clothes shops and a few special outfits you can unlock, or go with RDRs model of unlocking outfits as you complete a series of tasks? I think the shopping model applies to GTA IV better but RDRs outfit selection was MUCH more varied and interesting. In GTA IV I found myself using the same two outfits, where as in RDR I use a number of different ones. The selection was extremely limited in BOGT and LAD didn't bother at all. It will also be interesting to see if they give some outfits different bonuses too - but I suppose that all depends if Rockstar is going to go for realism again, or more of a relaxed/fun atmosphere. I guess RDR could get away with it more easily since the Western setting has an aura of fantasy about it. Maybe Rockstar will let us vary the outfits better by letting us choose our own colours or something? Who knows, I just hope we can have a larger number of decent outfits than GTA IV. One thing I hope Rockstar does is make it less of a grind to progress in multiplayer. I do not want to have to grind to rank up and unlock stuff! Let me unlock guns/outfits by completing challenges if you want, but I don't want to have to play for 100s of hours to unlock everything I want to own. Maybe let people choose what they want to unlock at each rank rather than have a set order. The game is fundamentally a sandbox game, so there should be fewer restrictions than you get with a normal FPS game. As far as the actual story goes, I'm open to ideas. America has the diversity you need so I expect GTA V will be set there. I'm more interested in having a better range of cars with better sounds and handling (GTA4 was an improvement, but you had Infernuses with jelly suspension), a good selection of guns (again with better sounds), and I'm also hoping for some more graphic gunplay. Sure you could get clouds of blood in GTA IV, but there was no dismemberment or anything like that. Improvements to the cover system are pretty much guaranteed so I look forward to that, too.
