kingroach Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Also if you shoot a guy he dies, REALLLY how do you steal a helicopter? Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/623986-official-grand-theft-auto-iv/page/23/#findComment-589355748 Share on other sites More sharing options...
IceBreakerG Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Well normally on "games" when you go somewhere you're not meant to go, there is a physical restriction in the way.Such as an invisible wall that is impassible. There are barriers, but no invisible walls. On foot, you cannot generally get around those barriers. However, if you jack a helicopter and fly over, then yeah, the police don't like that lol.

Remysaus Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 how far can you fly over the ocean without being blocked? i remember in crackdown you could swim out pretty far and see the entire city in the distance, was pretty cool imo.

what Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Turns out Play shipped my order yesterday, but they only got round to updating the website today. I'm happy :) With any luck they will have sent it in the morning, so I'll get it tomorrow. That's what happened with COD4 last year.

AJR1 Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 (edited) Some spoilers below check em if you want, if not wait until Tuesday. - you can travel the city via the subway system you can view from three cameras including an onboard CCTV camera, two external fly by cameras also. - Train rides are free! :) - Be evil to innocent people, and people walking by will turn on you and gang up against you, same if you jack a car, a member of the public may pursue you. - the mobile phone in game, you can set its ringtones, and change its profiles just like a real mobile phone, for example, i placed it on Vibrate and my 360 contoller began vibrating when i recieved a call! frickin cool or what! - Weather is dynamic as is the Day and Night Cycle. Rain/Fog etc - Cars have two headlights mode, Normal Night Lights, and Main Beams, these are considerably brighter as the normal lights in use by cars as default at night are kind of dim - Save games take place in your apartment, Niko goes to sleep and rises to the sound of an alarm clock. - Games are now in game too, you can take contacts or girls who you take out for dates, to Bowling / Darts / Casino or Strip Club, each person you meet has a favourite and least favourite activity - An achievement is to get 180 in darts within three throws. - Another few achievements relate to ingame mini games. (it feels a bit like PlayStation Home's mini games idea) - The second island is shut due to a terrorist scare, the brooklyn bridge is sealed off with police and concrete road blocks, although the second island looks spectacular - Radio stations are aplenty in game, can be turned off aswell. - Ringtones can be chosen for your mobile phone, and your mobile phone can also be switched off, the story continues when it is turned back on again. - Strip clubs are kinda cool places to hang out if that interests you i guess. - Have not noticed a Fire truck yet, no idea if they are in game. - Ambulances are kind of wobbly to drive - Anyone commiting a crime will be pursued by police, it works on a radar system, to escape police get out of the flashing zone on your HUD. - Fuel prices in game seem reasnoble. - You replenish your health from Hot Dog stands and Burger Joints in the City, you buy a hot dog for $1 and your health is boosted.

AJR1 Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 do you need to refuel in the game? Plenty of cars pull into refuel, including police, there are even queues at fuel stations, as for actually refuelling your car, i have absolutely no idea, i would educate a guess at no, due to the fact that i have not seen a fuel meter as i drive around liberty city.
