Si|ent Posted October 29, 2004 Posted October 29, 2004 obviously a bike reaching a higher height is nonexistent due to lack of them; why not use this height to prevent carkills? That doesn't seem to make any kind of sense to me. The artist formerly known as [MTA]MrBump
Guest Posted October 29, 2004 Posted October 29, 2004 obviously a bike reaching a higher height is nonexistent due to lack of them; why not use this height to prevent carkills? That doesn't seem to make any kind of sense to me. In regards to this, last I remembered GTA3 didn't have any bikes. Therefore having your character on a higher level than the vehicles prevents the vehicle from performing a carkill (not including a mountain, hill, etc.).
Si|ent Posted October 29, 2004 Posted October 29, 2004 Erm. So you're suggesting people hover over the city somewhere? The artist formerly known as [MTA]MrBump
Guest Posted October 29, 2004 Posted October 29, 2004 Erm. So you're suggesting people hover over the city somewhere? Incorrect... While the areas are limited, there are places where the user can get a height significance... ex. 2 story room in computer store by Kent's place.
Si|ent Posted October 29, 2004 Posted October 29, 2004 That's in Vice City, and motorcycles can get up and in there. You know theres no limit to the hieght a car can reach other than the sky 'roof' right? And players cannot get higher than that on foot either. The artist formerly known as [MTA]MrBump

You know theres no limit to the hieght a car can reach other than the sky 'roof' right? And players cannot get higher than that on foot either. Sorry, guess I am rusty on the games. Coould've sworn the computer area was in GTA3, but it wasn't Kent, but the rich reverend guy from III. Anyways, I thought there were a few other non-vehicle accessible areas in GTA3. Or if not non-accessible, still chalenging to get to via vehicle areas. What about the backyards around the suburbia area... true, vehicles can get there, but certain ones aren't a simple drive-thru. Enough timing, concealment for a car-free fight. And should a vehicle manage to get through there, then obviously they were trying a little too hard.
Si|ent Posted October 29, 2004 Posted October 29, 2004 Well as you will find out when you actually play, most people tend to fight wherever they meet rather than spend 2 minutes driving to a particular area and then agreeing to begin. The artist formerly known as [MTA]MrBump

True point, just figured tactically it may be easier to relocate to a more combat-based area (which there aren't too many of) rather than wide-open spaces. Although as far as carkills in the wide-open area... well, looks like I'll have to play before I bring any self-judgement.
Guest Posted October 29, 2004 Posted October 29, 2004 nice review, i agree with what he's saying there, cars r fine to deal with, i think its the same mentality from ppl who say the stubby or m60 is way too powerful or whatever, thats just cos they dont know what they r doing, which is the same with ppl who get killed by cars, so they resort to car killing. This probably does put ppl off gta3:mta a bit, that and the lack of servers.Ah well FMJ are starting a 16 player gta3 server this week, so we shall see how popular it gets compared to the vc one I hope its with Game2XS
Scorp Posted October 29, 2004 Posted October 29, 2004 umm nice bump, 3 months FMJ has a training server for GTA III, I think they should open it to the public instead Retired Dodo Killer.
DominionSpy Posted October 29, 2004 Posted October 29, 2004 umm nice bump, 3 monthsFMJ has a training server for GTA III, I think they should open it to the public instead That was the original plan. [edit] We now have an 18 player GTA III public server from fr4g.co.uk [/edit]
