Title: GTAIV....on stunting
Post by: Nitzkit on July 14, 2008, 05:41:52 PM
This is not a negative post about IV when it comes to stunting, But I have to get this off my chest.

Compared to the time the other GTA games have been out to IV it seems unfair to judge IV on stunting since a lot of stunting possibilities "could" still be found. But I feel that on stunting for me there will never be a game which is more fun to stunt in than VC. Now I know some of you might say SA instead of VC, or you might even say IV, thats not my point here. My point is that since IV is so damn realistic its extremely difficult to get the result you want out of a stunt (and im not just talking about bumps). Stunting on IV is like walking on a tight rope while your testicles are being tickled. Too friggin annoying. In SA that damn CJ doesnt fall off the bike at all, so its quite boring. To me VC is the perfect balance in which to stunt in.
(This is just my opinion on stunting in IV so far)


What is your best game to stunt in? Or where you find you have the most fun stunting in?

SA. It definitely has to most possibilities for stunting, and it offers a really big map, where new, great stunts are being found daily.

Vice City will always rule the roost, cause there will always be conversion mods... which means Vice's kick ass engine can have all the new maps ported to it = ]

Liberty City, San Andreas and maybe one day New Liberty City.

Vice City is still my favourite GTA game when it comes to stunting. Even though San Andreas would be a lot more fun if I wasen't lagging.

GTA IV map in Vice City engine = best fucking mod ever

VC, as I haven't played much SA and IV never. I hope there will be more proper Total Conversions, maybe IV's map someday.

I am a great fan of San Andreas as a stunting engine because of the vehicle types created by Rockstar to allow for such a great variety of stunting types and approaches to the world created. San Andreas also has bicycles, the most underappreciated vehicle in stunting. As for CJ not falling off, that is only a problem if you restrict yourself to motorbike stunting

As for IV, I like it for stunting, it is interesting especially in terms of its car and multiplayer capabilities - the main problem at the moment is that you have a whole stunting community who exist now with their tools for stunting (spawn any car and teleporters etc) and most cannot be bothered doing stunting the way we all use to do it

EDIT: Why post this in IV chat & support if IV is just a preface to start a general discussion?

I agree, and there wont be a better game than VC, because you can't have both: good looks + realism, and stunting. It wont work. I find IV a lot of fun though.

I'm in love with rad bumps in sa, but yes, its quite boring when you cant bail and grinds are freaking easy... I'll have to say VC

Personally I think its much easier to bail in SA than to do in GTA4, GTA4 is the most unrealistic game in terms of stunting etc, you can go backwards as fast as you want without falling off etc, you can do a backflip and a frontflip in a single jump without touching the ground etc...

VC ftw like Nitkit's and BK's reason also I think there are too many methodes for SA....

Post by: Turtle Boy on July 15, 2008, 08:33:04 AM
VC all the way, although I am getting pretty damn good at bumps in IV. But yea, I always end up going to VC and trying some oldies, some crazy ones, or just have fun.

Edit: I also enjoy stunting SA, just cause its so different, fun to switch it up.

I want to know what people think of IV when it comes to stunting, not VC or SA...but ofcourse they would have to compare it to the previous GTAs.

yeah i just see IV as another game for stunting but not as gta stunting for some reason if that makes any sense  i only view VC n SA as gta's for stunting... maybe gta3.

Well I've played IV on Xbox360 quite a bit now, it has it's ups and downs, but for me personally nothing will compare to the Vice City engine. I'm buying my new computer when IV is released for PC and I might also give SA another shot then, just for a little variation. Also I want one thing said, I'm looking more forward to the release of VA than IV on PC.. I think that says something about my love for VC..

Hard choise, I have to say I enjoy VC more but I also love RAD stunts in SA. And about GTAIV, I just played it for a whole night at a friend of mine and I've stunted whenever I saw a bump and I must say stunting became really easy and really fun on GTA IV.

im a SA fan,but i agree w/ Nitzkit's original post.however,i see major grind potential around the lV map,and i have grinded alot of things so far..but what i cant figure out,is why the hell the packer sucks so bad,the ramp dont com down,and the little ramps at the airport you can't transport.so p2b is N/A.but im sure as time goes on progress is sure to follow.

Vice City...As Nitzkit said about SA, CJ doesnt fall off of the bike which makes stunting alot easier.
Vice City just seems to feel more comfortable to me because thats where i started stunting.

well, you fall off most when you dont hit the target.. does it matter ? you still miss in sa.. but yes, harder and more rewarding in vc

Agree with BK and Nitzkit.

i think gta 4 has a lot of potential for stunting but with it being only on consoles and people not having capture devices etc, the progress will be really really slow unless it comes out on pc soon

In my experiences in IV's stunting, the BUMPs suck since 1/3 of the time you fall down since it likes to be a queer. I have a nice bump I like to go on at Bohan. I can go pretty high and go over the hospital I try it 3 times it is usually like Make it
make it
FAIL!

I am a ramp person I guess in IV.
