Just read the whole GI cover story. And after seeing these screens, I am going to have a hard time controlling my jaw, which wants to drop every second. Just hoping that the release date is after April/May, 1st week, so that I can play it to death after exams.

I have one query: The article said about controlling all three characters dynamically while on a mission. Like we can choose to pilot in a helicopter chase, or to change characters and do the gun-work. I suppose even if I'll choose to pilot, the other gunman will be doing his work fine enough?

Protagonists

 

Michael

-Early 40s

-retired bank robber

-voice in the first trailer

-in witness protection

-has a daughter named Tracy

-has a son named Jimmy

-wife is Amanda

 

Demo Introduction Mission

 

Starts by introducing Michael resting alongside a pool while waring flip flops in the rich neighborhood of Rockford Hills. He has a private tennis court and in the distance is the cityscape of downtown Los Santos. His wife is burning through his cash and he doesn't communicate well with his children. He walks into his mansion and Tracy, his daughter, is playing a Just Dance-type game. "It's called exercise - you should try it" she tells her father. Amanda, his wife, is seen going out to her Sentinel XS sports car. She yells to him, "If you want to know where I am you can check your credit card statements." He then yells back to her, "Hey, I'm feeling lucky! I'll check the hospitals." With the wife gone, Michael grabs his bicycle out of his garage and rides down the neighborhood. GI states that they spot sprinkler systems, rolling hills and high-end luxury cars.

 

______

 

Trevor

 

-Early 40s

-career criminal

-former military pilot

-lives in Blaine County

-drug user

-violent outbursts and destructive rampages

-used to work with Michael

-wears plain white t-shirts

-has a tattoo that says "Cut Here" with a dotted line around his neck

 

Demo Introduction Mission

 

After switching from Michael, the camera zooms into a desert region of the map where Trevor's ramshackle trailer is. The mission starts off with him battling constipation, with him yelling "I need a f**king midwife for this thing!" He gets into his Bodhi, a large truck similar to a convertible Jeep Wrangler, and heads down the road. Blaine County, where he lives, is a desert region full of meth heads, bikers and other "special kinds" of people. He pulls into a parking lot and flips off the people standing there. The playtester then grabs a can of gas, douses the truck and then sets the gas on fire with his Zippo lighter. He stands back and admires. The fire sets a blaze to the tires, then to the chassis and then reaches the gas tank causing an explosion.

 

______

 

Franklin

 

-Mid 20s

-repo man for Armenian Luxury car dealership

-South Los Santos

-stumbles into Michael when looking for a hustle

 

Demo Introduction Mission

 

Starts off with Franklin cruising Vespucci Beach looking for a car to repo. The beach has tons of activities such as a gym. He locates the vehicle, a 9F, which is similar to an Audi R8. He gets into the car and puts the top down. As he's driving, a number of familiar businesses are present, such as Ammu-Nation.

Funny

 

Jimmy

Other missions

 

Trevor and Michael have the FIB on them and they are forced to perform a snatch and grab for the FIB. They meet at a helipad to pick up a helicopter supplied to them by the FIB. Trevor has agreed to the mission on the promise that his friend Brad will be freed. Michael tells Trevor "We'll talk about Brad later." Michael changes into an outfit that is suitable for rappelling a skyscraper. Then Michael and Trevor get into the chopper and fly away. The copper arrives at the IAA HQ (the CIA). Franklin is already waiting for them, perched with a sniper in a building nearby. The player then controls Michael as he rappels down the side of the IAA skyscraper. A musical score intensifies as Michael locates the target. Michael smashes through the window to rescue the target from the enhanced interrogation techniques. From here, an icon appears letting the player switch to Franklin to help snipe from afar. While the mission allows you to stay as Michael if you wanted to, the player switches to Franklin. The camera transitions to Franklin and his sniper rifle where you can help Michael pick off remaining agents. After Trevor picks up Michael and their target, a helicopter chase ensues. During this chase, you can pick who you want to be. You can be Trevor and pilot the helicopter or Michael and fire an assault rifle out the back of the helicopter or you can be Franklin and snipe the other pilots.

 

 

Sounds like PERFECT game :thumbsup:

Don't think the change-character-on-the-fly idea will click...... I hope I'm proved wrong though... Maybe I just need a trailer or something to show how it would work.... :P Even if I don't like that feature, I'll just play the game with one character at a time..... Hope we can do that, though.....

 

But no doubt, this will be one awesome game..... :wOOtjumpy: Super-excited for it.... :wOOtjumpy:

^ already posted dude :/

 

@Ph3Nom - I'm hoping that's the case. It would make sense to have only the player cause the game over.

What about the other possibility? What if the guy not in your control wins the fight for you to complete the mission(without you doing too much work)? That should happen at least once in a while to make it seem realistic(otherwise they'll look utterly incompetent) , but at the same time, it shouldn't happen because, well, it's a game, and the player gets to finish his missions.
