WHY BRIDGES IN MOST GTA GAMES ARE CONSTANTLY BLOCKED?

Ойындар

Sometimes you just want to get somewhere else and do something that the game doesn't necessarily tell you to do - including going to a part of the map that is not available to you. But why exactly you mustn't go there? Just to make things clear, we are going to take a look at bridges and tunnels that appear in GTA Trilogy, Liberty City Stories, Vice City Stories and GTA 4.
Let us know whether you prefer if the recording should be done in original GTA Trilogy or GTA Trilogy remaster :)

If you don't have any missions in those places there's no incentive to even go there unless you really wanna explore. Again, you don't gain nothing by exploring the map in terms of gaining some progress or something so it never really made sense to me to have those bridges blocked.

    Honestly closed islands forces the player to explore the current area instead of running away and getting lost. It gave the games character and without it they feel barren and empty. Such as gta 5 feels only like a giant island in the middle of nowhere vs a community of islands.

    I agree. Leaving the whole map open at the start would quickly bore the heck out of me. I'm glad they give us bits and pieces of the area at the start until we reach certain levels of progress and they treat us to a new map. I never minded it. People keep complaining about how "other franchises could do it why can't GTA". Well with all due respect, there's a reason why old GTA games still stood the test of time while the other franchises (as much as I enjoy them) are called the GTA-copy. It's all about pacing. If you have everything in this world you would just want more, if you're restricted, you'll appreciate it more when you get something new.

    What about the elevator bridge in Liberty City and the ferries? Well, the ferries were on a strike, because the workers were worried they may lose their jobs once the Callahan Bridge opens. The elevator bridge was also closed by the striking workers, who were worried they may lose their jobs because of the planned tunnel extension. In GTA III, the tunnels were obviously yet to be finished at the start of the game, while the elevator bridge's lifting mechanism reportedly broke down.

    Hello there! Yes, we excluded Shoreside Lift Bridge and the ferries and here's why.. Our main goal was to present the most important objects when it comes to crossing other islands. Since we included Porter Tunnel (by the way in some way related to the ferries) or Callahan Bridge, there was a lot of talking about union strikes in 1998. So we felt that it's not necessary to put Shoreside Lift Bridge since it was related to strikes as well. And besides there's not much to tell here.. maybe except radio announcements. But we hope you enjoyed episode nevertheless 🙂

    Just looking at the thumbnail alone, I already have an answer to that question. The bridges were originally blocked because Rockstar had a thing where they wanted their playerbase to play through the story before getting the chance to explore the map. A method Rockstar abandoned partly in GTA V. I say partly because yes we have access to the entire map but we have to explore the map to open it up in the pause menu, if that made sense.

    Also to note about the tunnels in GTA 3 leading to the upstate, Rockstar created them to so players felt like there was more to explore in the map. It gave the illusion that, players were not cut off from the outside world, but could not access it due to having to solve problems in Liberty City. Also, the other GTA maps like Vice City, Modern Liberty CIty, and San Andreas are attached to the mainland. Rockstar did not want to actually show how they were connected because it would make the map look bad. And, also because in these maps, they wanted the player to fully immerse themselves in the games map. Some players also believe that it gave maps the feeling of loneliness, being cut off from the outside world.

In GTA 5, Lester mentions that they are in Southern San Andreas and that the water north of Paleto Bay is actually a river. You can see evidence of this by going to the eastern side of San Andreas and looking at how unnatural the coast looks. Other reasons why we don't see the mainland on these games, tech limitations, space for the game, and like I mention above, to have a better esthetic when playing. They really wanted to take advantage of the whole idea that Americans only focus on their part of the country only and no one else.

    From a game design standpoint, It was likely to treat each area of the map as a "unlockable area". It encouraged players to do missions in a organic way.

    In the beta version of GTA 4, they were going to include a part of the Upstate, which wouldve included a tunnel to drive through to get there. It was cut though, because the developers thought it was weird having a wooded area and then off 1 mile away, was the hustle and bustle of Liberty City.

    However. It may be bigger but GTA V feels "smaller" since you only have two official areas, maybe 3 "cities" but they feel too small.

    @@MarkoVuckovic32 Exactly. To this day I still find entertaining to boot up San Andreas and have some fun around the map. Whether it is unleashing chaos, exploring or just wandering aimlessly until I find something that catches my eye. GTA IV feels a little "empty" on certain areas but free roam is still entertaining. GTA V however...I just get bored of it. It's not like there is much to do despite the secondary missions. Heck, even collectibles feel like they give mediocre rewards. The "alien" buggy looks odd and cool but I don't see it as a proper reward, the notes give you I think it was 10 bucks and the nuclear waste is the most "rewarding" in terms of money (but I don't remember if the quest alone is enough to recover the money spent on the dock). Back in San Andreas we unlocked cars for doing certain secondary quests, free amo/weapons for certain collectibles, heck. 100%ing the game gave you a frickin' tank and a hydra (things you can access more easily in GTA V so eh). I didn't even bother 100% GTA V, so I don't know if it's even worth it. Don't get me wrong, the story is good, the game isn't bad at all. It just doesn't feel like it is worth completing EVERYTHING from it haha

    If I recall correctly, Upstate Liberty *was* meant to be in GTA3 and 4, but for GTA3’s case, it was scrapped because consoles couldn’t handle a huge map and because of the time crunch, and in GTA4, Upstate Liberty was scrapped simply because the developers wanted to make the game more compact to have a fully fleshed out city and story, and not worry so much about the size of the game.

    If I was rockstar games, I could’ve saved a beta map of upstate liberty so players deserve a countryside road trip to explore. Maybe even having some missions for Claude set after the main storyline where he is hunted down by every gang he pissed off from the favors and missions of gang leaders. It would be amazing to see Claude working for the Zaibatsu Corporation like he did for gta 2. As well as some bikers and maybe have some plot points and plot holes filled up, even who leads the Leone family after Sals death.

    Let's not forget GTA, you have a bridge that is "being worked on" until you progress to a certain point in the game. Or you could just use a penetrator and drive over it at full speed. Then there is using a tank and it's missiles to do the same after you have made the first jump and you steal the tank of course.

    In addition to spoiling new areas too soon, it keeps your focus in the areas where missions are. Also, even if you get to a new area particularly in San Andreas, though you can enter some places there is nothing to do you cant buy safe houses there. Unless you use a no wanted level cheat, you cant explore without the police going after you.

Which means you have to complete the main island area mission so you can then do missions on the other islands....Now the reason for GTA 3 bridges to Staunton Island due to reconstruction of the bridge....which only means you have complete missions from the mainland to then Staunton Island to explore.......💯♠️♦️♥️❤♣️🖤
