Hey that's pretty cool! I love the GTA games. But setting it in a real area might be asking for trouble. All GTA games are set in fictional areas, but based on real places like yours.
You know, I keep thinking Rockstar will make the next GTA game in a different country, and so far they haven't, even though one of the original GTA's took place in London. Glad someone else has taken up the job! Looks great so far.
@bradjensen68 lol)No not Strelok) his name must be Oleg) bout graphics: I changed graphics style and time of year-now it`s dark,dirty,wet and cold november
A game featuring "White Power skinheads" ???? Uh, I think you should definitely NOT include something so controversial in a game, also I like the idea of a gta-styled game in a country outside of the US, but I'm sure if Russia is an interesting enough setting. Most players from the US probably won't "get it".
This game isnt a product of big mass industry so political correctness is not necesarry - it all be as it is. About US people who "wont get it"...thing i noticed- more I chat with people from USA- less differences between our country`s I see. So i think people from USA must get in))
People in the US tend to be very sensitive to "white power" and things like that. Glorification of racism is really really really frowned upon even by the most avid free speech people. You can do what you want, but don't expect a very warm reception. Even among those that tend to accept things like GTA games with open arms.
I say go for it and do what you can! If you are able to complete and finish it, consider at least one copy sold.
Make that three. So long as the plot is truthful and shows all sides, not glorifying it, theres a difference. Movies do it all the time. Looks good, like the art, keen for more.
tip: anatomy, check it out, you're character doesn't follow it. (and thus looks cartoonish, instead of humanish)
This Is amazing, my two favorite things put into one, Russia and GTA. I'll be sure to keep my eye on this :wink:
Topic updated with new screens, that little change in graphics style. Also some new info will be added after few minutes)
hmm interesting, would you share the tecnique used for tree shaders? is it a sub shader with defaoult transparaci shader and a sub shader of cutoff? or am i tottaly wrong? Nice pics btw!
I alway dreamed about a GTA in Amsterdam where you could steal a bicycle or hijack a tram. But it always seemed like a bit too ambitious too take on.
Killer1390 you not very bright. Chinatown is in Liberty City which is New York, Which is in America...
Actually chinatown is a generalized term for a section of any city that is based around chinese culture. Proof? There is a city near where I live that has a chinatown.
I voted yes, but I also wanted to say to not directly copy GTA. Find some way to make it unique from GTA. Know what I mean?
Omniverse I'm talking about the chinatown in the game. There are chinatowns everywhere I know I have one too.
