I'd say "nice try," but you're not even close. Los Santos=Los Angeles, San Fierro=San Francisco, and Las Venturas=Las Vegas.
As for my wishes, I'd go for either a return to San Andreas, or a pseudo-Seattle.
Being able to fire two handed guns from the passenger seat of a car.
Bring bring back bikes.
Be able to force someone to drive. You get in the passenger seat of their car, put a gun to their face and tell them to drive. You still control the car, but it isn't as responsive as if you were driving. They can also bail on you, or do something you don't tell them to if they're gutsy. I'm not sure how this would work into the game (maybe there could be a mission where you had to), but it would be pretty cool.
Make there be some kind of penalty for killing lots of people. Seriously. If you go on a killing rampage, killing 362 people including 127 cops, it feels kinda weird being able to walk the streets without people going "OH MY GOD!! IT'S HIM!!!!" Like, you should have a "persistent wanted level," that ranges from "pull him over if you see him" to "full out manhunt, shoot on sight." Yeah, I know people like doing random killing (going to littlelacysurprisepageant and seeing how long you can last), so include a "sandbox mode," that you can turn on or off if you don't have a wanted level, where you can't gain or lose money, or do story missions, but none of your actions have effects on persistent wanted level or relationships.
silentsentinel: Please, please, please put in better helicopter controls. I don't know if it was just me, but steering a helicopter in that game was a battle with the controls.
Maybe you just couldn't get the hang of it, its not easy but anyone can master it after a while.
Remake vice city with everything the same, but with the gta 4 engine . Doing this for gta 5 would be pointless, but if they make my i dea into one of the episodes ...
I want GTA to be an mmo!If you played gta4 online, there is an option called sandbox mode, where you and a couple other people run around the city. My idea is this times 100000!it would be fun as hell to see 1000 on the same server blasting each other
okay: an area as big and as varied as San Andreas (if not San Andreas) complete character customisation take all this grittiness throw it out the window, replace it with zaniness. bring back the wacky missions..remember taking a dirt bike over the the roofs of skyscrapers so that you could project a pair of breasts onto the side of a wall to advertise your porno? more varied cars and guns. submarines, hidden UFO that could be snuck into and flown about. also bring back: planes, quad bikes, bicycles, hover craft, jetpacks the present day is a dull grizzly beige monotonous depressing place. set it in the 80s and make it sunny again, this includes giving it a proper decent 80's soundtrack. make the NPCs more aware of their environments, it always really annoyed me when taking a character somewhere that they weren't slightly impressed that I was taking them in a helicopter gunship or tank. bring back the ability to buy a failing business do a few fixer upper missions and restore it. then making it part of your criminal empire.
the one thing you did right with GTAIV was the improved clock so days lasted longer. oh and that reminds me get rid of the black hawk anhiliators bring back the Apache missile firing ass kicking chopper.
1: Make it Grand Theft Equus, set it in the old-west and cast the player as a cattle-rustler.
2: Go back to San Andreas, and put a damned flying saucer in the secret military base like there should have been in the first place.
3: Force Powers.
4: Make is Grand Theft Aero, set in the future, with tons of FLYING CARS. (rip-off Fifth Element shamelessly)
5: Make the player a cop (how hard could this possibly be, I ask you?)
6: Rip-off Crank, where you need to keep stimulated or you'll die.
7: Rip-off The Transporter, where you're just a badass fighter/driver who ends up in huge continuous battles.
8: Rip-off Death Race, in which you must battle in a "Death Race" against convicted murderers, in a post-apocalyptic wasteland.
9: Set it in the '70s, and focus on heists. (rip-off The Bank Job)
10: Rip-off any Jason Statham movie.
11: Grappling hooks!
12: Extremely detailed sex-minigames with graphic depictions of genitalia, because what the hell, maybe it would keep me entertained for a few seconds.
13: No joke, I'm totally serious about this. Think about it... A Zombie Outbreak.
14: People and cars that actually GO SOMEWHERE. I can't be the only person that has noticed that none of these people ever arrive anywhere. They just perpetually wander and wait. If you follow an NPC long enough, it actually stops being funny, becomes weird, then passes through weird into creepy, then transcends creepy and becomes a nihilistic metaphor for life, at which point you consider suicide... But luckily, you accidentally brush past a policeman who then decides to beat the shit out of you, which snaps you out of your suicidal haze with the observation: "Damn, this IS realistic."
good god apply to rockstar, youll probably get a job in the creativity department.
gta got old fast because nothing new happened. it was a game that was supposed to be like real life. now saints row knows its a game and they pull out all the stops. what i think should happen is disasters. instead of liberty city it should be disasteropolis where meteors, earthquakes, hurricanes, giant robot lizards from the meteor, and zombies from the radiation should happen. make it a game again, it kinda turned into OMG im buying a suit. one more thing start off as an average joe, you know middle class, content but not happy wants more outta life but all of a sudden oh shit look what happened zombies in an earthquake while a meteor crashes. fucking brilliant and you get to use aresol spray as a flame thrower. fuck hire me some production company so that i can help with ideas. fuck the fake internet. sheesh....
GTA did use to be very comic book. From what I've played of GTA IV, it is very enjoyable, but the comic book violence with chainsaws and tanks was a real laugh.
I think I'd want a return to the more fun mission types, a more evil character like Tommy Vercetti (Niko and CJ had quite a bit of human in them, where as Vercetti was an 80's sleaze) I also think another time period would be good. Not too early, or it'll be Mafia (a good game in its own right), but maybe 70's.
Best one would be modern GTA London. I don't care if they have to change the name of the city and make mock locations, but as long as I can slice up some cockney slaags, its all good.
Rshady: A variation of Terrain. I really missed the vast deserts and countrysides as well as the differing cities. I miss the crazy missions and cameos from former characters. The soundtrack to GTAVI was also very poor compared to San Andreas and Vice City. I did however like the story of GTA VI so something similar to that would be awesome.
I think they're gonna return to San Andreas, if only to round out the stories with San Andreas Stories, which will hopefully focus on one of the better characters from that chapter - Catalina (She is bisexual, so the Hookers can remain).
Oh, and if anybody cares, they have sort of moved the setting to 1940's LA. Sorta, in that they have a new title called LA Noire.
needausername: For the love of [Insert Religious Figure Here] don't include Niko or Roman (even in cameo appearances)
I read somewhere that there is graffiti in GTA 4 that says "R.I.P. Caesar" or something like that, as it does for other characters. I haven't found it, but to find it in the next part saying that Roman is dead, I will be happy. Because, mein gott, did I get sick of his damn TEETEES! TEETEEEEEEES! AMERICAN TEEETEEEES! *screams*

NO, JUST NO! NO FREAKING MMO. DO YOU HEAR ME!? NO! BAD ASMODAUS! BAD, BAD, BAD! NO DINNER TONIGHT!
I would love a remake of SA and VC, slapped onto one map and you can fly between them yourself or by commercial planes. and character customization, or atleast just more clothes, i mean, SHITLOAD of clothes.

Most importantly I would like more customisation.
Sorry to be a roman-numerical nazi, but GTA VI ? I didn't know there was a GTA 6!
To be honest GTA: Hong Kong would probably work quite well. Its got the Central district for the modern skyscraper feel, The New Territories for the country side, Kowloon for the slightly more run down side of town, Port Stanley for the shipping areas and lots of Islands for whatever else. You would at least get some diversity of locations, one of the few things GTA:SA was good for.
Other than a different city, a return to GTAIII style cars, and a return to Vice City style environment.
* I would like to see a completely new setting. I don't care if it's GTA: Texas County or set in Cold War Berlin, just do something new. Keep the internet and cellphone, just make the phone a bit bigger so I can read it when playing on my very small television. * More weapons, more clothes. * More 'evil' main character. Everytime Niko bitched about his war past or how bad it is to kill people I would shoot some passer-by's for the heck of it. * Customizable gang
That would be awesome :) "Onyx kill that cop... How do you mean, Pokemon can't kill people. Goddamned" And then Onyx would kill dozens of pedestrians by just moving a bit to the left :)
I think they really need to tone down the realism, the great thing about GTA SA was all the crazy stuff you could do like fly a plane into a skyscraper or drive a tank through town, they need to focus more on variety of things you can do , especially now that they've got the execution down.
Zombie Outbreak - Awesome idea my friend. Put It in Rockstar!!
Vrock - Best Damn radio station ever!!
And no more stupid friends who whine just cause you havent called them and told them how much you love them in the last few hours. With Roman only it was o.k. but then you add the dozen or others and it just gets plain annoying.

i actually liked the characters and liked the human element except for Niko's depression of the war, the love twist kind of sucked at the end, however i liked CJ. GTA IV just lacked the extras that San Andreas had.
r* hyped GTA IV up too much ok graphics are good but missions are too serious and they took away the co-op (as in 2 controllers) i would have liked 2 play pool 2player aswell. PC version i think u can. CO-OP story mode has to be a must for the next 1
Yeah, I think they need to avoid 'making' you do anything outside the main missions, like SA's eating to keep alive, or the suggested gas stations to keep your car going.
Anything that'll interrupt the flow would be a bad thing, I feel, and I did feel a little bit 'nagged' by my phone in GTA4, maybe once you hit 99 or 100% with anyone, they should be content for a good time before they start demanding your attention again.
And I know its not fair on other non-US locations, but a fresh GTA London still gets my vote, tho I think I already posted on that idea, with flights to connect major UK cities.
Is it just me that couldn't recognize anything from GTA3? The one thing i could see from gta 3 and think "aha" was that little slope with sand. Other than that it was just new york called liberty city and not liberty city from GTA3. Anyways i would love more moral choices, and more than just kill/let live stuff.
Everyone keeps suggesting a return to zaniness, and I can understand because I found it a little difficult going on rampages with super-serious-conscience-riddled Niko. The thing is, I'm pretty sure Rockstar has announced that they've decided to make every GTA game from here on out gritty and realistic. If you want a game that plans to remain silly and crazy, go for the Saints Row series. I've seen several suggestions for things that are already in that(character customization, gang customization, etc.)
Personaly, I think the phone cheating system was an excellent idea. I have yet to complete San Andreas without cheats, simply because my fingers kept tapping them out before I could stop them.
For the next GTA, they should definately think about a pseudo-Australia, Britain or Mexico type city.
As a suggestion for a main character, perhaps they should try a woman. A properly built woman with an actual degree of intelligence, not some dumb, skinny, watermelon-chested, bad-ass action girl. Maybe they could make her an ex-cop who had been kicked off the force for suspicious reasons. The storyline could have something to do with her finding out who had set her up and taking them down. I dunno, I'm just tossing out a base they haven't tried before with a storyline that should be easy to write. If they did choose to make the main character a woman, maybe they could throw in male prostitutes as well as female, giving you the choice to make her any sexuality you deem acurate. And the internet dating was a good idea, but maybe they should also put a bunch of hidden dates around the map. They could make it so the dates were split evenly between males and females, adding to the choice you have in her sexuality. Also, bring back some of the customization, I was really disappointed by the lack of choice in GTA IV. If they could bring back the ability to change hair styles, with perhaps a little more realism(no jumping from bald to afro), and maybe replace facial hair with make-up, if they do a woman, I would be quite pleased. And more clothes, dammit!
Yeah, my idea for GTA VII. Why GTA VII? Because I choose not to abide Rockstars "because I say so" sequel numbering. And why not GTA IX? Because the psp games don't count, they suck too much.
m3uk: either set it in a remake of London, u r all saying real names of places this wont work as it would b bad publicity for the place and if u look u have
Liberty City - NY Vice City - erm...Miami San Andreas - Detroit
Things GTA 4 missed are;
Aeroplanes Go-Karts Military Base Gym (i loved the San Andreas weight control) Wider variety of clothes a mansion (boat parking space) Surfing mini-game multi-player minigames like pool etc story mode online co-op Dildo as a weapon (lol i'm not a perv just thought it was hilarious in the last 1) impound yard (when ur infernus disappears u know where its gone) more melee weapons (where did the sword go) missions set with more people (like say u do missions for Triads, Yakuza, Russian Mafia, Rastas, Brittish (i mean like the guy from vice city ...paul?) Car customization never ending assassin missions :p Card gambling game - texas hold-em
better radio i loved Maurice Chavez so funny but Lazlo just didnt do it.
fighting cyndicate (along with different fighting styles yet another san andreas exclusive)
my want list is long i'm sorry but gta lacked in the extra's which san andreas had
oh yeah i want cars to run out of petrol
a big red button (like the heart in the statue but u shoot it and every building blows up)
use more weapons if ur a passenger a drive-by with an AK would b wkd
own a gang - u choose what they wear the cars they drive.
a car show room u can choose to buy or rob the cars. if the police see u in a stolen car they chase u and u can bribe them for the small offenses like speeding
burglary missions another from san andreas.
and finally protection rackets and owning local businesses like vice city u could get a regular income from the malibu club
The missions & characters i enjoy and would like to see again
Niko without the depression of the war as mentioned in an above post Dwayne - dwayne my favourite character so keep him as he is Little Jacob - erm mayb
Another bank robbery, car races and assassin missions, ambulance, fire truck, better fist fights a redesign (i'm being picky now ive just been playing the bourne conspiracy and the fighting is amazing.) an escape from prison mission would be good halfway through the game niko gets caught ends up in jail a couple of missions in jail like drug dealin, beatin someone up for protection money, a trading system so u can acquire the tools u need 4 the escape.
and another 1 for laughs a gun closet in each safe house that has a bundled in mini-game of cleaning ur weapons and taking them apart and putting them together. then again i like guns so it could just b me. o yh a safety catch on each gun. only jokin.
finally carry a limited amount of weapons i mean shoving an RPG down ur trouser leg...pffft or if u carry too many weapons police see bulges and get suspicious ... never mind.
police do random stop n searches of people.
so closing it the game is far from perfect. it is a good game with excellent graphics. but the police AI and the cabaret club didnt do it 4 me. so if developers read this u have got some work 2 do chop chop i want GTA V by xmas
ALL WE NEED IS IT SET IN THE 70S AND HAVING A CHAOS CHEAT LIKE IN SAN ANDREAS
I hope they don't take themselves so seriously. Instead of a stupid tradgedy with "realistic" colors (if by realistic they mean for a colorblind person) they should go back to a farce with chainsaws and jetpacks.

I would totally agree with you, but it can't be called Hong Kong. Vice City being Vegas and Liberty City being New York, it should have a fake name as to keep the GTA tradition. Tibetan-Oppression City, anyone?
Also, bring back Katanas, Miniguns, Flamethrowers, and all that shit. And no "pistols and combat pistols." Some variety would be nice. Like, depending on accuracy and damage and clip size and all that shit. You know, so it can fit the players gaming style.
ok this what I want for GTA5! .A big single barreled 2 gaudged shot gun(big bullets)that shoots explosive tiped slugs .I want a fore barreled granade lancher .A narly looking pare of 44's(dimand incrested,designs on them,one made of gold the other silver,they'll be semy automadic,shooting traser bullets,there bullets will burn through any thing .I want a big nasty gatling gun twice the size of normal .I want one car hidden were you'ed never find it to be abel to transform have wings that fold and move for ebrupt stops and extream turns, it will also have a electromagnetic shiled that will protecht it from most enemies,this shiled will also reverse all light from entering makeing it invisible to the naked eye,the cars engen will run on any thing and everything from solar power to the nitrogen in the air the speeds of witch the craft are capible of reching are unnone because no is qualifyed to fly it,drive it or eny of the other ting it can do for that matter. .the storie line is that the your playing as is a top secret exmilitary exparament faliar and they lock him and the other expariments up in a top secret military base 10,000ft under the biggest desert in the world all of the men in the experiment are from death row insted of being killed they were sent there,basicaly what they were doing to them was turning them into wepons what they did to them is a mystery sort of, but thing they do know is that serum they inject you with changes you physicaly and mentaly, for instance you become extremly more muscular and strong you senses are beter seeing,hereing,all enhanced so one of them was put in a forest but escaped along whith his brother and they head for there fathers house in hopes theyed be safe. .I want really cool ceat codes .I want a huge map so you can just rome and rome with lots of cool thing in the world and ledgens and myths like a big foot or mabe PLESE OH PLESE JUST ONE SEA MONSTER,or mabe just a giant shark and some cool 100ft long boats with guns on it LOTS OF GUNS!!!!! .I,ed also relly like some cool hotrods and alot more cusimation for cars or just plan old more creativeity,like me .and a big thing the name of the name of the game is GRAND THEFT AUTO that means I want some muther fucking badass cars!!!! .I want a couple big mountans a giant desert a vast forest and there don't have to be alot of cool things in them but there better be at leat one like a underground cave or maby a badass castle with neat shite in it like a 300 year old sword that you can go chop some guys head off with If you'ed like here more of my game ideas plese contact me at jjcelano@yahoo.com.
