GTA V ONLINE - R* video about GTA V online mode

The words "content creator" catches my attention when i saw this video, R* is giving more options to customize the "world" in the GTA V, customize cars and characters is a "normal" feature already seems in GTA SA, now we will be able to create custom race tracks and deathmatchs games to play online (and i imagine that in normal mode too), also share those custom content to other players see what we did and joy the party.

Imagine that, a online deathmatch where you control 3 characters, when you are controlling one, the other two do predefined tasks that you planned, like cover and shoot, run to position, enter a vehicle, with a fast switch and task definition system we could make really nice interaction between actual char and the two other guys, we can task one to drive to certain positions and task the second to shoot while we are on top of the beautiful truck with a minigun destroying everything ^^, something like that:

Ignore the vehicle, imagine an Hammer, one driver with task to go to determined positions, one shooter to help you, and you, the task can change based on the progress of the group, for example: your group start to receive too much damage, the driver should evade trying to find a position to protect the vehicle and the group.

And i hope so much that they give the option to set weapon pickup in that custom races, imagine you with a UZI in that bike? Sure, with limited ammo. Also new melee attacks while in bike it's one thing that we need.


Sorry for my "english" :)

Yeah baby - Let's mod GTA V

"If there is a game, there is a possibility to mod it"

In a next future i will post in this blog the mods for GTA V that will come out when the modding scene for GTA V blows up.

For now, all what we have are screenshots, videos and expectations ^^

Let's see some interesting pics and what i hope based on them...

Planes: Yes baby, we will have big planes, small planes, jets and more in GTA V, the multiplayer will be awesome with jets flying on sky. I guess that this big landscape is one of the reasons to have fast planes or jets in GTA V.

Sports and fun: Tennis, golf, jet ski, bicycle, quadbike, hunting, parachute, swim with sharks o.O. I guess that we will have a lot of options to waste some time when not in missions :)

Heavy guns: A flame thrower should be nice too. Throwing kinfe? Imagine that, fast and dangerous. Smoke bombs and explosive rounds are good ideas too.

Hot cars and pursuits: What we can say, cars, amazing look and if they keep/improve the damage from GTA iV this would be amazing enough. if they have a option to do something similar to BeamNG car damage this would be epic, but i guess that this don't will happen :(.

The pursuits seems very nice and hard, destructive objects will make things look more real.

The car customization will be other interesting and needed feature, we missed this a lot in GTA iV.

Enhanced PTFX, ambient FX and water: Based on the screens we can notice new particle effects for explosions, dust, water effects and thunders. All graphics look very nice and improved, let's hope that this version don't have too much lag for PC versions :)

Now it's just wait, hard task...
