Gta Iv Liberty City Series To Utilise

Thats something that we definitely tried to put into the game.

Seven years later it underwent a huge transformation into a living, breathing 3D world for Grand Theft Auto 3.

In 2004 the city was reverted back to the old school top-down view for GTA Advance, where it only modified due to hardware constraints.

Gta Iv Liberty City Series To Utilise

Liberty City Stories was the next game in the series to utilise the 3D version of the city, a few minor changes were made, however it remained largely similar to GTA3.

GTA 4 will be the fifth game in the series to use the city as its setting.

When asked why Rockstar Games decided to use Liberty City, Dan Houser, Vice President of the company said.

From looking at all of the locations, this was the one that really stood out to us, and really had that impact.

It has all of these iconic things that you couldnt put into a game before.

Four of the five boroughs have been recreated, their equivalents are.

For example, the Statue of Liberty is now called the Statue of Happiness, while DUMBO (Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass) is known as BOABO (Beneath the Offramp of the Algoquin Bridge Overpass).

The size of Liberty City is slightly smaller than San Andreas, however, the smaller size is made up for as not an inch of the world is wasted or dedicated to vast streches of country or desert, the city is a thriving metropolis.

When the light fades and nighttime is upon us, we will see some very different people walking the streets, and you may not want to be found in some parts of the city.

NPCs walking around the city will also strike you as being remarkably different than in previous interations of Grand Theft Auto.

Rather than following pre-determined paths and having very limited movement capabilities, NPCs will seemingly have a far more varied amount of things they are able to do.

In addition to this, they will be a lot more dynamic, and much more context sensitive.

It feels a lot more real than just a lot of people walking down the street.

We make a city that feels like the real thing, but is perfectly tuned for gameplay in the broadest sense.

We are trying to make a video game that feels like the world, but still plays like a video game.

The design of the city and the missions that unfold within it are designed hand-in-hand and complement each other perfectly.

Everything in this world is here for a reason, where it is directly tied to gameplay or simply there to create atmosphere.

Trying to put that into a videogame is something that we think is unique to the video game medium.

It was a way that we could capture some aspects of the experience of living there that you couldnt put into a film, you couldnt put into a TV show, and you couldnt put into a book.

A big part of New York life is walking around the streets and meeting lunatics.
