DominionSpy Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 There's a news topic, but this one could be for speculation/thoughts on the teaser. So far, I've noticed a couple of things. 1. They've got fairly far - there's in-game chat in the boats bit (Cray saying hi). 2. The medium option in the server list could be for internet/network. If so, meaning they've optimised it separately for both. 3. There may be more specialised modes (MrBump's stunthouse). 4. A lot more skins. Maybe new careers? Link to comment
orappa Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 I hope they show a GTA3 teaser at some point. While they won't admit to what is / isn't included in the core, it'll be interesting to see what they'd done with the limitations of the engine. Anyway, regarding the VC teaser: 1. If that's the new interface, all I can say is wow . Whilst the current client interface serves its purpose, it's not particularly user-friendly or attractive, so this would be a massive improvement. Also, it may well mean that we don't even need to use ASE or the client's interface any more in order to join a game. LAN querying is appreciated too (ASE does it as well, but it's hidden in the menu so that not many people know about it). Such a user-friendly interface will cut n00b questions on the forums in half. In fact, I may even be so bold as to claim that the MTA interface is a lot more preferable to the default Vice City one. 2. Everyone's commented on the number of skins, but no-one seems to have mentioned the number of players - that is definitely not 26. 3. "MTA Blue" - that's a strange name. Does this mean that there are other colours available, or even that it's able to be modified? 4. I also like the new logo (if that is the new logo) that starts off the video - it's so much more.... badass, if you know what I mean. I also noticed on the final "revolution" screen that it said "More information coming soon". I hope so Edit: Also, the teaser file is called "teaser1", implying that there will be more (fingers crossed). Link to comment
Black Dragon Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 no not all of us.. i actually havnt quite noticed the skins (probably because i dont really care about them) but noticed the amount of players. i counted about 35 with the player, and it doesnt look like the line is ending . edit: oh and there are cars on that picture too, i think it means they now can put as many models in the game as possible. probably wont be answered, but i saw a police boat. will the police guns be synced?

Posty Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 This is my speculation on the menu (probably isnt correct, but I'm gonna say it) When you launch the MTA.exe or whatever, it launches the game right away, but you dont see any of the normal vc menus and such. All you see is that. When you select a server and hit Play Online, it probably automatically selects Start new game for you, so all you have to do is click the play online (or the client already did that, and the menu is ingame like gtat's once was). I'm probably very wrong, but I can guess/hope, can't I Also, I did notice the ammount of skins/people. I thought that, maybe it is the ammount of players that can be ingame (because remember how they store the ammount of players on that roof and stuff?) Or it may be saying that you can choose from a huge ammount of skins now. Those are my speculations for now Link to comment
eAi Posted August 4, 2004 Share Posted August 4, 2004 As we've said before, we're not going to answer questions about the new core, but don't read too much into what you see in those 4? pictures. Its only the tip of a very cool iceberg. eAi Link to comment

Guardians Proper Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 How about this: Who cares? Just play 0.4.1 and stop speculating. Link to comment
Posty Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 How about this: Who cares? Just play 0.4.1 and stop speculating. Why should we do that? We have to squeeze as much info out of this teaser as possible Like I said before, there's nothing wrong with putting tons of effort into getting more info than they want us to get out of something Link to comment

When Core 0.4 comes out, we'll be excited for the first couple of days, and then we'll start longing for the next one. Link to comment

Actually... for about a year, even around Christmas, I wanted absolutely nothing, couldn't care less what I got. Strange feeling, but now I guess theres a few things I want again... Link to comment
orappa Posted August 6, 2004 Share Posted August 6, 2004 Yeah, but you can only ask for tangible goods (and within a certain acceptable price range). Link to comment
Garuzzo Posted August 6, 2004 Share Posted August 6, 2004 and with all those skins there may be weapons packs or counter strike type money synch where u start with a certain amount and pick the weapons from there ending spawn points. my two cents anyways Link to comment
