A closer look into the early beta/concept map designed for GTA III. I'm amazed that Rockstar would even officially release something like this, but I guess the early 2000s truly was a different era. / badgergoodger

In my opinion, the extra area in Portland makes the most sense to be a prison. It's far from the entire city, no roads lead to it (or atleast no asphalt roads) And the surrounding area seems to be a rocky cliff. Makes sense for a prison to be there, and again, as you mentioned, the characters going to Portland in the intro cutscene backs this theory up, even if just a bit

I think a big reason to why GTAIII's map feels a lot bigger than it actually is, is that the streets aren't laid out on perfect grids, so you have to take many more twist and turns to get where you want, so you naturally take more time to get to where you have to go. It's a testament to how well designed this map is. VC had a similar design philosophy with the internal streets, but It felt a lot smaller than III because of the outer main roads effortlessly taking you to any corner of those thin islands.

Personally feel that once the blocked tunnels are completed they would most likely connect to Carcer City and surrounding areas, due to Carcer being mentioned as being near to Liberty on the radio in GTA 3 and also in Manhunt the mission Press coverage begins with the protagonists exiting their vehicle opposite a closed off road tunnel, could be coincidence but I'm not so sure as it is often stated that GTA and Manhunt exist in the same universe.

Great video and analysis as always! Given that the beta map is in wireframe, it looks like they had all of that modelled (or greyboxed - which is the act of creating the basic shapes of a map or location in a game), but they either removed it after, or some of the screenshots/renders are actually from BEFORE that map was made. Seems like they just took a topdown view of their 3D Studio MAX project for that beta map. Shoreside Vale looked "greyboxed", where just the basic shape was done and nothing else.

Thanks for liking the video and for the insight, as well! I figured that the wireframe-looking details on the map meant that a lot of places on it were created by this point, and that Shoreside Vale was in the very early design stages by then, too.

I don't think they actually scrapped the south of beta Shoreside Vale but rather moved it where the residential part of final Shoreside Vale is (Cedar Grove + Wichita Gardens). If you look closely at beta southern Shoreside Vale you can see the zigzag-esque and diagonally directed roads which resemble the final residential district. The north of early Shoreside Vale does look like simplified Wichita Gardens, though, so they might've merged two areas into one. I'm still curious about what those jagged lines on the north-east edge of Shoreside Vale are and what was the early concept of the northern mountains.

You definitely should make another video about the LC Bank and those mysterious tunnels that were always blocked. It feels like in theory there should be a 4th "island" by the lore and probably the second part of Shoreside Vale. But that's more like a lore thing, because there is nothing that confirms that Liberty City even has a 4th zone. Just a speculations and community made interpretations of how the other side of Shoreside Vale island hidden behind the mountains looked like (maybe it is even a countryside like in SA), but again, that's not a real thing sadly. Well, at least we got a small chunk of what's inside of those tunnels in Liberty City Stories, but even there the tunnels are still closed, just letting you to drive a bit further than just stare at the entrance from outside.

While I think that the tunnels were there just to imply that there was an outside world (and I don't think Rockstar expected there to be as many people asking or speculating about these tunnels as there were), I did always enjoy seeing fan interpretations of what might be on the other side of those tunnels. Had they been able to properly do it at the time (or for LCS, if adding this sort of thing would even work with the PSP's hardware or UMD space), I feel like a bit of countryside on the other end would have been neat. A small forest or something at least.

I enjoyed this video, I would like to give some analysis of all the islands. Portland: There's this giant building in Portland that you begin to see at the beginning of the game during the mission "Give Me Liberty" that divides the road leading to the Bridge and Ammunition. In the beta, as seen from that map makes it look like that building wasn't there and pre-release screenshots online show that the road was supposed to have a smaller section of buildings. I believe they replaced it with a bigger building to make it appear more immersive in Portland Island. With the possible prison in Portland, I don't necessarily know if it's true, there's no citation for sure, which brings me to believe it is fake or untrue, however, during the beginning of the game, dialogue suggests that they were going to a Prison, and the convoy was intercepted, and they happen to be going to Portland Island. Which also makes me believe that area could have been a prison. Staunton: There's not much to say, except a few rather intriguing details. for the Airport, maybe they placed the Airport in Staunton Island because of one of the Donald Love missions that require the character to head to the Airport to collect an Airplane to which you would have to go to Pan Atlantic Constructions to meet Asuka, they probably kept it in Staunton for a while because of how short the story of the game was, and they needed something to extend the time. And that would probably mean switching it to Shoreside Vale. with that weird construction area in the Beta map, you have shown in your video. It does appear that they reused some street layouts for GTA Liberty City Stories. If you were to look at that road layout in the map in your video, and the GTA LCS map of the same location, they look identical, not too similar but close. Shoreside Vale: I believe that they were clearly going for all suburban areas with houses and all sorts of stuff there, however probably due to time constraints, and because of the fact that they didn't draw anything for the lower half, they decided to move the airport down to shoreside and place a random army base in the north of Staunton in result of moving the airport. If there's one thing I noticed while playing the game is that there's a weird line that goes around, like a pipe or something that goes through Staunton to divide the map up into different sections. You should investigate what those were for. I will provide photos of them on Twitter.

Yeah, look at GTA IV, we do get a prison in Alderney.
I think a big reason to why GTAIII's map feels a lot bigger than it actually is, is that the streets aren't laid out on perfect grids, so you have to take many more twist and turns to get where you want, so you naturally take more time to get to where you have to go. It's a testament to how well designed this map is. VC had a similar design philosophy with the internal streets, but It felt a lot smaller than III because of the outer main roads effortlessly taking you to any corner of those thin islands.

This is the Quality Content KZread was made for...I dropped my croissant when I saw, it only had 70 000 views.
The reason you can't find that on Rockstar North's website was probably because they were known as DMA Design until shortly after GTA3's release.
Personally feel that once the blocked tunnels are completed they would most likely connect to Carcer City and surrounding areas, due to Carcer being mentioned as being near to Liberty on the radio in GTA 3 and also in Manhunt the mission Press coverage begins with the protagonists exiting their vehicle opposite a closed off road tunnel, could be coincidence but I'm not so sure as it is often stated that GTA and Manhunt exist in the same universe.
Great video and analysis as always! Given that the beta map is in wireframe, it looks like they had all of that modelled (or greyboxed - which is the act of creating the basic shapes of a map or location in a game), but they either removed it after, or some of the screenshots/renders are actually from BEFORE that map was made. Seems like they just took a topdown view of their 3D Studio MAX project for that beta map. Shoreside Vale looked "greyboxed", where just the basic shape was done and nothing else.
@BadgerGoodger

Thanks for liking the video and for the insight, as well! I figured that the wireframe-looking details on the map meant that a lot of places on it were created by this point, and that Shoreside Vale was in the very early design stages by then, too.

Fun fact: 'Some other guy' from the opening cutscene is the old Oriental gentleman from Donald Love's missions. Love paid the Cartel to bust him out of prison and then they tried to hold the old man until Love paid more than agreed sum. That's where you come in later in the story
What doesn't make sense is that during the first mission, Claude and 8 Ball are headed to the penitentiary but the closest thing we have as a prison in Portland is the Police station.
That bta map was likely from the flash interaction. They even had points where you can click on objects to hear rave music or short interviews of characters, I might have an audio clip I recorded. Shortly after Vice came out they took the interactive dlash map down but Vice had something similar but with post it notes on a pin board.

Because it's streets are smaller and more connected. Plus you have three seperate city districts. In VC, we had Vice Beach and the Mainland. Those maps are still my favourites thou.
The Callahan Bridge is mostly based on the Manhattan Bridge in real life. I think there should have been an in-game version of the Brooklyn Bridge too atleast the player would've had choices to choose whether he should go from this to that island on which bridge. And it would have made the game feel more realistic.

I don't think they actually scrapped the south of beta Shoreside Vale but rather moved it where the residential part of final Shoreside Vale is (Cedar Grove + Wichita Gardens). If you look closely at beta southern Shoreside Vale you can see the zigzag-esque and diagonally directed roads which resemble the final residential district. The north of early Shoreside Vale does look like simplified Wichita Gardens, though, so they might've merged two areas into one. I'm still curious about what those jagged lines on the north-east edge of Shoreside Vale are and what was the early concept of the northern mountains.
The map I've found and downloaded as an image doesn't have Portland off road track near the tunnel maybe it was added later as well?

You know the tunnels that you can’t enter from shoreside vale, maybe the bank was suppose to be on that other part of land since you can find the bank from the beginning cutscene around there using an airbreak mod but I guess the developers didn’t have time to finish the upstate of liberty due to a deadline.

If you think the beta looks cartoony then you'll love the GTA 1 Liberty City. Also Callahan bridge sucked...way too short be a suspension bridge..looks dumb. Should have kept it bigger. The original airport location looks better. But overall the map is an odd one, beta or not....I also think it feels like GTA 2....the artwork on the U.K. box art looks quite futuristic. I think GTA 3 might have followed on from that but then ended up not doing so...aside from the smog everywhere...I liked that.

In GTA III Stadium (in the final game), it appears as American Football pitch whereas this beta map shows what seems to be an English Football (or... y'know the uhh... soCCeR) pitch instead of American Football.

You definitely should make another video about the LC Bank and those mysterious tunnels that were always blocked. It feels like in theory there should be a 4th "island" by the lore and probably the second part of Shoreside Vale. But that's more like a lore thing, because there is nothing that confirms that Liberty City even has a 4th zone. Just a speculations and community made interpretations of how the other side of Shoreside Vale island hidden behind the mountains looked like (maybe it is even a countryside like in SA), but again, that's not a real thing sadly. Well, at least we got a small chunk of what's inside of those tunnels in Liberty City Stories, but even there the tunnels are still closed, just letting you to drive a bit further than just stare at the entrance from outside.
@BadgerGoodger

While I think that the tunnels were there just to imply that there was an outside world (and I don't think Rockstar expected there to be as many people asking or speculating about these tunnels as there were), I did always enjoy seeing fan interpretations of what might be on the other side of those tunnels. Had they been able to properly do it at the time (or for LCS, if adding this sort of thing would even work with the PSP's hardware or UMD space), I feel like a bit of countryside on the other end would have been neat. A small forest or something at least.
I wondered what The Beta Version of Gta v would look like
yee haw
I enjoyed this video, I would like to give some analysis of all the islands. Portland: There's this giant building in Portland that you begin to see at the beginning of the game during the mission "Give Me Liberty" that divides the road leading to the Bridge and Ammunition. In the beta, as seen from that map makes it look like that building wasn't there and pre-release screenshots online show that the road was supposed to have a smaller section of buildings. I believe they replaced it with a bigger building to make it appear more immersive in Portland Island. With the possible prison in Portland, I don't necessarily know if it's true, there's no citation for sure, which brings me to believe it is fake or untrue, however, during the beginning of the game, dialogue suggests that they were going to a Prison, and the convoy was intercepted, and they happen to be going to Portland Island. Which also makes me believe that area could have been a prison. Staunton: There's not much to say, except a few rather intriguing details. for the Airport, maybe they placed the Airport in Staunton Island because of one of the Donald Love missions that require the character to head to the Airport to collect an Airplane to which you would have to go to Pan Atlantic Constructions to meet Asuka, they probably kept it in Staunton for a while because of how short the story of the game was, and they needed something to extend the time. And that would probably mean switching it to Shoreside Vale. with that weird construction area in the Beta map, you have shown in your video. It does appear that they reused some street layouts for GTA Liberty City Stories. If you were to look at that road layout in the map in your video, and the GTA LCS map of the same location, they look identical, not too similar but close. Shoreside Vale: I believe that they were clearly going for all suburban areas with houses and all sorts of stuff there, however probably due to time constraints, and because of the fact that they didn't draw anything for the lower half, they decided to move the airport down to shoreside and place a random army base in the north of Staunton in result of moving the airport. If there's one thing I noticed while playing the game is that there's a weird line that goes around, like a pipe or something that goes through Staunton to divide the map up into different sections. You should investigate what those were for. I will provide photos of them on Twitter.
