Cloud' Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I really hope that the driving has been improved in GTA: IV. Before when you were driving if you used your Horn cars wouldn't move out of the way and when you were in a Police Car with the sirens on Cars would drive into other cars and crash into walls to get out of the way. Also if there was a road which was blocked by something cars would wait there for a while then go crazy and start crashing into other cars, all they need to do is drive round. I would also like to lock and turn of the Engine and lights in my car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTAPlayer Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Well the driving in GTA has been pretty good, but IMO it seriously got better in San Andreas, the cars felt more heavy and all, so it gave you a more realistic driving. In other GTAs it felt almost like toy-cars, I don't know man, that's just how it felt. And I don't think you need to hope, I'm pretty damn sure the driving has been improved in GTA IV, just wait, it's going to be an awesome experience, no I haven't played it But I just know it.

Red_91 Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Well there is a possibility the thigns you say will happen, horning when your in a normal car didn't have no effect except for picking up hookers. I think they will probably use this feature where toher cars will actually move out the way.

Cloud' Posted April 2, 2007 Author Share Posted April 2, 2007 The only problem with locking doors and turning off engines and lights is that there is not enough buttons on the controller to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red_91 Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 The only problem with locking doors and turning off engines and lights is that there is not enough buttons on the controller to do so. There is, you could get near the door and hold clcik the R3 button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud' Posted April 2, 2007 Author Share Posted April 2, 2007 But what about when you are inside of the car and want to turn on the lights or the engine? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red_91 Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 But what about when you are inside of the car and want to turn on the lights or the engine? Well simple triangle wil be enter the car and start engine if engine is not already on. And light on and off couldbe L1, this is for the PS3 controller by the way.

Cloud' Posted April 2, 2007 Author Share Posted April 2, 2007 I Forgot about those buttons but what about the cigarette lighter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTAPlayer Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Shit man, what are you guys talking about? Turn on lights and engine, cigarette lighter? That would be a little bit too much, this is GTA, I mean, I'm not saying it wouldn't work, it's just that I don't see it necessary or anything like that.

Cloud' Posted April 2, 2007 Author Share Posted April 2, 2007 (edited) The cigarette Lighter was a joke, but the Engine and Lights suggestions are plausible and I think they would be a good asset. Ive always wanted to indicate and Turn off my Engine. Edited April 2, 2007 by Cloud' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pandora Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 What you mentioned was more AI then the actual handling. I'm fine with the handling, just needs a little tweaking. But the AI should defo change. Like if you suddenly storm at another car they should actualy react to that. I mean, if someone would be charging at you when you're in a car, I'm sure you'll try to get away. If you're on street and someone charges at you, would you put your hands up? No, you would run like hell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dmac Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Engines and lights sound good. Maybe for the controls it could be X and UP for lights and X and Down for engine maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeAtH Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 (edited) That would be real if you could create some blocks on road and drivers cant drive around then cars come and come until there is million cars and it would be on big tv. Oh and there should be turning lights too idk how to call in English. Edited April 2, 2007 by DeAtH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeAtH Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 And cops would stop you if you drive at red light or if you don't use indicators. And it has nothing to do with topic but car washing would be good because much gtas had carwashing place but you couldn't wash cars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud' Posted April 2, 2007 Author Share Posted April 2, 2007 Nah, Cops stopping you is too much, i like realistic but not to much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BALLA_OG Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 i think the driving would be alot better, and maybe involve street racing, seeing as in sa you could mod cars, maybe this one would be able to mod near enough any car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spaz The Great Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I would also like to lock and turn of the Engine and lights in my car.[/font] Why would you want to control the lights? That just seems kind of retarded. And cops would stop you if you drive at red light or if you don't use indicators.And it has nothing to do with topic but car washing would be good because much gtas had carwashing place but you couldn't wash cars. NO. No f***ing Driver shit. I don't want driving laws. And signals? Why? So while you're doing 100+ through a residential area on the wrong side of the road while shooting innocent civilians and crashing into cars you can make sure you aren't pulled over for not signalling..... ? Does anyone else notice the irony in that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alistair Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 I see no issue with allowing lights and indicators....well, indicators are a bit difficult to be honest, I didn't think they were of much use in Mafia, but I WOULD like to see other cars indicating. and switching your lights off could be a good idea for missions where you have to stalk cars, don't you think? As for road AI - the GTA3 series as I'll call it had some of the downright stupidest AI I've ever seen in a game, and if Rockstar don't improve it, well, shame on them! I'm sure they will though. A short list of discrepancies in AI to real-life behaviour - Nobody changes lanes THAT many times - Indicators - A siren does not mean the apocalypse is about to hit your car, slam on the accelerator and hit the nearest wall - Very few drivers will get road rage, and those that do, do not drive around your car in circles ramming it, regardless of whether you are in the car - Pedestrians do sometimes care if an accident has happened - Gunshots do not normally trigger "Nascar mode" in most cars, people would normally drive away from the gun shots, not ram the guy firing the shots in a desperate attempt to flee killing 7 pedestrians and taking out a lamppost - Lamposts are actually built into the ground, they don't just precariously balance there - Cars don't always set on fire after a heavy crash, they have been known to just stop working - A horn doesn't mean "pedestrians, run like hell and scream" - Where a road is blocked, drivers tend to try and get around it, not just sit there parping their horn - In most countries, the police do notice some of the following offenses: >Speeding >Running the lights >Running DOWN the traffic lights and lampposts >Running down at least one pedestrian >Causing a pileup >Driving on the pavement/sidewalk >Picking up a hooker >A suspect running from a car that has just caught fire >Driving the wrong way on an interstate >Driving the wrong way on a rail road, or indeed, on a rail road at all >Attempting a road block with several trailers, and standing there with a rocket launcher waiting for your victims to arrive I hope that list was pretty much complete!

Spaz The Great Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 - Nobody changes lanes THAT many times Apparently you've never drove in Florida.... - In most countries, the police do notice some of the following offenses:>Speeding >Running the lights >Running DOWN the traffic lights and lampposts >Running down at least one pedestrian >Causing a pileup >Driving on the pavement/sidewalk >Picking up a hooker >A suspect running from a car that has just caught fire >Driving the wrong way on an interstate >Driving the wrong way on a rail road, or indeed, on a rail road at all >Attempting a road block with several trailers, and standing there with a rocket launcher waiting for your victims to arrive I hope that list was pretty much complete! The two I bolded ARE picked up in GTA, the thing is, a lot of the time a cop isn't around to notice it. And a lot of your things fall under "traffic laws", most of which would make GTA TOO realistic.

Pandora Posted April 3, 2007 Share Posted April 3, 2007 Police should have a mild chase for extreem speeding or ramming people on purpose. But not for stuff like indicators. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
