Next GTA, make it choose-your-own-adventure!

Would love to see this. During your run there would be junction points
in the storyline where you have to make a decision, making one decision
or the other leads to unlocking a different set of missions and
scenarios, leading to multiple alternate endings in the storyline,
rather than what we have now where everyone does the same set of
missions in roughly the same order, leading to the same exact story
ending.

Also, would like to be given the option of 24-minute game days or real
time 24-hour game days.

And ofcourse, Bigfoot, space aliens, and cops that look like Robert
Patrick asking me if I have seen this boy, showing me a photo.

Hm, I'm not convinced by this. IIRC most games that try this turn our
to be complete poo for some unfathomable reason. As the saying goes:
don't mess with a winning formula.

I kind of like the current time cycle. My preferred GTA 'environments'
is sunset to sunrise. Gotta love those tropical VC sunsets. You way, I
would then be forced to do 12-hours GTA night sessions!

Totally agrees - more random fun stuff. Can also be scary random fun
stuff say that nabs you if you're wandering alone in the woods at
night.
I'm really disappointed that they didn't put some in SA - would have
been so easy to code an extra 'random' character, and would have added
so much to the feel of the game.

One thing I'd love to see, and which seems feasbile to implement, is
more pedestrian communication.

It seems strange that pedestrians will randomly stop and talk to each
other, but can't to CJ. Some thing along the lines of the homies-sytem
would be good.


Cheers,
Rob
