Apart from asking about the car list - which is not finalised hence we can't talk about it - are there any questions that are still unanswered?
The latest I remember is whether the PC version will have downloadable cars like the 360 version or not, I'm trying to get a reply to this.
Anything else still waiting for a reply?
These, that I posted in reply to Vibro when we heard from him last time :)
3 things.
The walking around bit,
I'm not a developer or anything, and I do not have a big knowledge in game making, but since the game is already a free roam game, and you can go everywhere, then isn't it pretty easy to make the player walk around ? (Sort of making a car, that is a player and then you have a walking avatar instead of a driving one? If you understand? hehe ) And just implement that into the garages and showrooms too. You have modeled the complete garages and showrooms, and even given an effect when you are choosing between the cars (the camera flys around the garage/showroom) - So again, wouldn't it be easy to code a avatar walking in the already modeled rooms? Correct me if I am wrong
The Ferrari/Maserati Showroom:
It looks like it's just plopped in there and out of proportions - Come on, design it like it would look like. A carpark with some cars in it, both Ferrari's and Maseratis, some palms and signs. Like the Lambo dealer You guys have made a great job designing these dealerships, and they looks astonishing, so I was a little disappointed in the Ferrari/Maser dealership. It looks very malplaced. (Hehe, just a little outburst there, just thought you should know that they are strict in real life on how they are build and placed)
Now, the last of the things.
Rotating inventory in the dealership?
Will it be like that? Because when you go to dealerships in real life, or at least exotic ones, they do not have all cars in their showroom and you might have to order one, or wait until one shows up. That would make this game SO cool. So that you just can't drive in and pick up the car whenever you feel like it, but have to plan it, or be lucky That would be very cool
EDIT: One last thing Vibro - The AI traffic, they all sound like Ferrari 430's running at 8000rpm

Where have the showrooms been posted? i can't find them anywhere?

Seen it in in-game video's.
Do they know about the waterfall glitch in the demo ? In the top left of the map there is some rocks you can drive over to get to a waterfall, when you go over the edge of the ridge you just fall straight into it and fall to the bottom. No reset and pressing "Back" doesn't work, you have to use the GPS to escape. You could also see a ton of the water texture underneath and even some of the island underneath it.

Mormor has already said that above.
Will there be a way to shift weight on bikes and do stuff like that?, also will there be Motorcross bikes, like Supermoto ones that are meant for road and dirt?

Mormor has already said that above.
i know, it wasn't answered though.
How about we all post the question until it is answered?
Two questions (yes, I KNOW they are above, but I have asked this MAAAANY times without a reply)
1. ARE THE INDICATORS IN GAME???? ( I really hope they ARE! :chapeau: 10sur10 :atari: )
2. Is it possible to shift the wight on bikes??? (like in gta SA )
Really urgent question:
Is there really going to be the SL73 AMG in the game???
PLEASE let there be one.

2. Is it possible to shift the wight on bikes??? (like in gta SA ) All the actions on the bike have been motion captured. You drive the bike, and your avatar does whats necessary to hold the line (or not :nuts: ).
You can't hang off the side, or stand on the handle bars... this is a racing game, not "Evil Kenivil meets the Blue Arrows" rolleyesa

Is it possible to make good wheelies and stoppies?
You may not see indicators due to lack of buttons available, this is what I have heard from rumours anyway. I hope it's not true though as it was said at the start of the game that these features and little details would be included. :( Come on :atari: !!
[+] just thought of another question not answered ...will the cars have working aero parts like the real things ?
martijnn
25-05-2006, 23:03
I hope for more functions on the PC version, the version i get. Much more buttons!

Is it possible to make good wheelies and stoppies?Wheelies are definitely possible ( if you can't control the acceleration rolleyesa ).
The only 'stoppie' I saw involved another car ( and looked very painful :nuts: )

And the most wanted question of Indicators lives on mdr1

...no no....i dont mean some extreme stuff.....just an option to do a wheelie.....but its quite good that you can do it, apllying full throttle... :)

GTA IV will be released both on PS3 and 360 at the same time on 19/10/07.
this is brand new and eagerly awaited

I know the demo's code is old, but I am wondering, did you guys fix the problem with the way the dude inside the car shifts? On the Lotus Exige, when the guy inside shifts to first gear, he pulls the stick back, and on second gear he pushes it forward.... I think is the other way around. :respect:

It will also have exclusive downloadable contecnt just for the 360.

besides on and off ramps and using the off roading as a jump theres no jumps in the game that I'm aware of. Your wanting this game to be something its not
you do know GTA will never have license cars too much mayhem. user create cars yes but there is no way to do that for the xbox360 or ps3.

They aren't, they are giving it a better chance, it will release exsculsive downloadable content just for the 360.

And one more question, will there be glowing red brake disks when you force the car into heavy braking?

Ya I don't think they will have that cookie monster, in the demo if you notice on the shellby gt500 zoom on its wheels it has disc brakes in the rear instead of drums. but that might of just been place holder graphics, since it was from a really old build. Still the game is going to rock, its going back to the test drive 3 days just turned up to 11. :atari:

If GTA4 wasn't going to be released on the 360, i would have had to consider a ps3. now its on the 360 i'm fine.

Well all the GTAs have always came out on xbox as they have on ps2, just about half a year later.

I think it would be great if the developers made the supercars more exclusive...(enzo, MC12, mclaren slr, Koenigsegg etc.)
For instance like with a real ferrari enzo you have to be qualified to get one and ferrari would have to pick you out... then eg in tdu you have to own all the ferraries before you can buy the enzo...
that way the real super cars would get more exclusive and rare to own...
Also the enzo is only produced in 399 copies in real life... it would also be nice if the developers made a limit to some of the cars in tdu... but off cause a little more than 399... :)
Please give me some feedback because I would like to know if I'm the only one with this opinion :)
well they will have downloadable cars that there will only be 1000 or so available no idea how this works.

Okay... well that's a start...
Picture this:
You have finally earned enough money to buy yourself a enzo, which you have dreamed about since you started the game. then you proudly drive to the ferrari dealership and buy a enzo. but when you drive out of the dealership you see two enzos racing by... :noooo:
I'm just saying that if everybody is going to drive a enzo or a slr after 6 months it won't be so cool to own one :)

But what i'm wondering... I don't hope that you can buy all cars in 1 day just like lalalal .. uhmm ferrari.. and a aston martin, hm let's buy the lambo too.. I hope that it costs very much too have a car like these and not spending your money and get it back in a minute...
Okay... well that's a start...

How long could it possibly take to buy a expensive sport car?
I wonder how accurate the main cities are with their real life counter part. Anyone know?
:atari:
Big question:
when are we going to see updated code on Live, and when are we gonna get more vids??
