Moises19 14 Report post Posted January 19, 2013 I made this little positioning of the Hollywood (Vinewood) sign and the Los Angeles Zoo, and as we see more animals in screenshots, the bigger the chance we'll have this zoo in the game, which is [zoo] at just 2.2 miles from the Hollywood sign! *Green line is just an estimation of the size of the zoo* Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kwarb 104 Report post Posted January 19, 2013 Mile length adjusted and San Andreas added. http://i.imgur.com/tDjappZ.jpg i think that if you mash Liberty city together, and get rid of the water inbewteen the islands, I think thats the basic size of Los santos. i know the forest wll be pretty big, but around LA there is more of a presence of desert. so i think the desert region will be the largest. The prison will be pretty large also, but i dont expect it to be a major part of the map. I do expect for a desert airstrip, like GTA SA, and i think that grapeseed will be up in the foothils of the moutains and the forest, possibly in a U shaped valley with the mountains surrounding it. the maps ive seen are also very linear.IMO the map will be spread out up and down, but also to the east of the city. The desert ( like ive stated above) is a major part of So-cal's geography, not as much as the mountains above. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Since the real L.A. has something like that nearby, and because I would like a large, flat and open space to test out the performance and top speeds of some of the better cars. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TreeFitty 2631 Report post Posted January 22, 2013 A great map from Jbte: <big pic> In my opinion Its a nice approach to the real deal, hope theres no problem with this image upload. The urban area is a little wrong but it's an interesting idea for the LS river(s) connecting out to the lake. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fanman 30 Report post Posted January 23, 2013 a base they could use for the game is Edwards air force base its in the dessert. theres also a la air force base by lax and shit now there more then two bases on this map so i will just not list them cause you should look for yore self and stop waiting for some one to tell you cause you lazey, but this dose help me predict how big the games will be.

Not quite so. Think of all the bases around Las Vegas that weren't around Las Venturas. There's Nellis AFB, Creech, plus the secret ones far out in the desert. We only saw one of those, and that was Area 51 (69). There are a lot of military bases in and around LA, sure, but that doesn't mean we're going to see all of them. I don't think we're going to see more than three, if that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GTA5isawesome 7 Report post Posted January 25, 2013 Rockstar stated on the GTA V Wikipedia page that the map will be bigger than those of GTA SA, GTA IV and RDR combined!

I don't have the exact words used but you can see for yourself at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gta_v Been said many times, and is quite old news. While that allows us to visualize an estimated size for the whole map, it doesn't help at all with estimating the size of Los Santos really. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GunSmith 2452 Report post Posted January 26, 2013 you do realize that i was look for them in the la area not Nevada As usual, fanman, you're missing the point. Using San Andreas as a reference, I don't think we'll be seeing all of the bases in the LA area. Just one or two. Can you understand that? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Googlefluff 34 Report post Posted February 2, 2013 (edited) Okay I just got the news. Los Santos will be the size of SA, RDR, and IV combined??? HOLY FUCKING SHIT. That's waht? 40mi^2? that big. huge gigantic! by far and away exceeded my expectations wheres my fucking cell phone shitt asdaa EDIT: Wow, grammar and spelling be damned lol. And it seems to be the general consensus that the whole map is that size, not just Los Santos so I'll just go with the flow. Ridiculously huge map either way, though.

Bronson 702 Report post Posted February 2, 2013 No I don't think it does because if you watch IGN's Game Scoop they said just the map's geographical scale is bigger the all three, not including the ocean floor or the endless hiking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bronson 702 Report post Posted February 2, 2013 i believe that the map will be very large, maybe not as large as the original San Andreas as a whole but very close infact, too me LIberty City was big, yet so small at the same time, i think we may see a map that we may actully be able to get lost in lol LOL looking back at these comments make me laugh.
