Come now, it's Los Angeles. Of course there'll be ghettos and gangs. To quench your thirst for a firefight, fuck with the Russian Mafia in Hove Beach.

Fullstops motherfucker, use them. But yes, there are ghettos. Firstly, you could clearly see them in the trailer. Secondly, LS is basically LA, including all the notable features from LA, such as ghettos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TenpennyKilla 34 Report post Posted April 20, 2013 I think there will be gangs outside of Los Santos as well, I'm a big fan of Sons Of Anarchy and would love to see a biker gang as well as some form of backwater, hillbilly meth labs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rayge 689 Report post Posted April 20, 2013 I think there will be gangs outside of Los Santos as well, I'm a big fan of Sons Of Anarchy and would love to see a biker gang as well as some form of backwater, hillbilly meth labs Hells Angels are from LA. Hell, basically every gang has history in California. And some form of meth is almost definitely in the game, revealed by Trevor himself when he talks about how all the 'crank' (meth) goes through him for redistribution in the area. And he seems like the type of guy to have loads of inbred hill-billy 'MURICA type friends. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeetnikBriyan 29 Report post Posted April 27, 2013 I hope within the next week we find out rather grove street is there or not.. i really think franklin is one.. but they may have it as just Families and Ballas, like "Neighborhood Ballas (Neighborhood Rollin 20s Bloods), Neighborhood Families (like Rollin 60 Crips or any of the other various NH Crips), Gangsta Families (like Gangsta Crips, Neighborhood crips biggest enemy of all), Ganton Families (like Compton Crip, Grove street being a set of this), some type of Hoover and Piru gang (none in SA). But its obvious however they do it, they will do it right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BeetnikBriyan 29 Report post Posted April 27, 2013 CJ was a badass gang member, i mean yeah he ran off but thats because he was smart enough to try and escape the streets, but at the same time dumb enough to get caught back in.. he single handedly took over the whole east LS! nd okay, ill take your word for that one,, ill post like a "normal" person for now on.. really big deal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BeetnikBriyan 29 Report post Posted April 27, 2013 *whole of SA He escaped his family when they needed him. = Coward. That is correct GunSmith117, I've never said that he wasn't a coward. But at least at the end he gained Sweet's respect back by putting his life on the line and shooting through a building of hundreds of well skilled shooters, and Sweet was the one alive that mattered the most.

Rayge 689 Report post Posted April 28, 2013 Despite the beginning of SA was highly gang-oriented, as you progressed 'gang life' got significantly less and less important, especially out of LS. Straight when Sweet gets out of prison, he's ready to go back to Grove Street .CJ on the other hand wanted to go do some other shit in SF or LV and leave his gang behind.

I_Am_Coopa 5 Report post Posted April 28, 2013 It would not surprise me if gangs played a slight role in this game. Gangs are a big player in LA so Rockstar most likely has them play a role, albeit a small one. Since the overall goal is to in a sense make money, maybe you can use gangs as a source of income. Maybe as Trevor you can supply them with meth to sell if they give you a cut. Or as Franklin you can have them make a distraction so you can repo someone's car. Or maybe even as Trevor you can simply rid of an entire gang so as to take their money, and more importantly, drugs to make money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree, having L.A.'s Street Gangs play same sort of role in the game is realistic, since gangs feature prominantly in the real L.A. Plus it would also add a bit more depth, gameplay wise too the game. For example having missions involving different Sets in some way, or having gang members spawn in certain areas of Los Santos. With the Gang Members being more heavily armed and armoured than regular civilians, and also dropping more cash ( like the drug dealers did in SA ). Also if you attack them you do not recieve a wanted level from the LSPD. Rockstar doesn't have to bring back full blown Gang Wars for GTA V to incorporate Street Gangs in some minor way. Whether you like it or not I think Rockstar will be putting gangs into certain areas of Los Santos, and I for one would enjoy their inclusion in GTA V. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
