A sneak peek at GTA 4 Online!

there would be hundreds and hundreds of places you could get as hide outs. From mansions down to barns. Even apartments. Take a sky scraper building that has around 100 apartments in it. Each player can pick a place. But as in real life you could only choose one place to own, that you can cant take up every aviable living space.Se7enwolf101

If GTA does have online or someday will, I so hope it does my idea, keep reading for some mind blowing potential.

I came up with MMOPGTA back between 2002 and 2003 when I was coming up with the idea of GTA being an online game. Even had several pages wrote out on ideas and possibilities, this was before the PS3 was even offically announced. This was planned for PS2. Anyways. My idea did include episodic downloads of missions and storyline added to your bought game. Along with that, there would be monthly up dates with cities being added on, or the cities/enviorments changing with new buildings, new character, new cars, almost any thing in the game could be updated or added. But it not having to be downloads, it would just be updates to online levels /cities just like WOW. Eliminating having to download stuff.

Really my main idea was baicly build a system that allowed players to work up in ranks and become the bosses giving the missions. You're new to the game, you create your own character from the start, you start out as a lonely petty thief/criminal or you can be a cop. You work your way up the ladder by doing jobs for other players or AI characters. the higher in rank you get, the more abilities you get, the more respect you get, and the bigger the missions. Such a mission a "real-life" boss could give you is to take our a rival gang member and earn respect that way. You dont even have to do missions, you can just be a average citizen or just stay a low time criminal or work your way up the ladder your own way. This leaves the gang wide open. Take on the biggest gangs and mobs in the city in one shot if you life. When you die by failing a mission, you get knocked down a rank. Of course missions can be present to a limit for the bosses to choose from to give you. But also there could be text message missions, or talk to the players through mic with present voices for your character.

With a map of several hundred players to it, it would be alot of fun and really theres no way there could be that much havoc created if the world is big enough, say 3 times bigger than San Andreas.

Another cool thing is start your own gang or mob with real life players, the ability becomes avaible. when you work up to a boss rank. And you can contact gang members by mic "cell phones" or text message. Just pick in a communication screen "phone" or "text" so and so.

there are so many possiblities you can do with a MMPOGTA game that its mind blowing and this would be the biggest game ever! blowing stuff like WOW away.

Stuff that can be updated for the map/game for online:
-store products you can by (clothes, weapons,ext)
-cars, vehicles,
-advertisments (perfect for in-game life advertisment)
-New Character creation options
-new enviorments, new buildings, new AI characters
-car costumizations
-weather!
-world events, such as put in big accidents or events into the game like someone famous coming to town, or building/bridge construction (say when a new building is being made, it goes under construction for a few days or a week before we can access it), terrorists attacks, anything you can think of.
-personal updates, say if your gang or mob boss was killed and knocked out of their ranks, you get updated on it and have to choose a differnt path (There is no single path to follow)

can you guys think of anymore?

There is so much more I could talk about on this. Now I know something like this is way out there, but if it is possible, them R* by all means DO IT!

My thoughts - In online, it would be cool to have a deathmatch using airplanes and Helicopters (ig: Hydra, Hunter)

And have a CTF mode, using vehicles, and aircrafts. Making the CTF span across the map, getting the flag back to your base by any means necessary, like using Sanchez's to go cross Hydra to get the flag back, but be warned, some n00b awaits with an RPG, while another n00b is chasing you in a another Hydra. That would be awesome. Or maybe substitute the flag for drugs or money. What i also would like to see online would be MASSIVE gang wars, (about 50 people per side) and have an all out brawl kind of like in The Warriors. no guns, just muscle. Those are just a couple of ideas, extreme, but possible.
