The area we're playing in V is Los Santos and the countryside around it, which is part of San Andreas, but it's not the whole San Andreas. So SF and LV might still exist in San Andreas in this era too, but they're just not in the area we're playing in. |
Wrong. Rockstar states the game is based on a re-imagined, present day Southern California. This doesn't exclude any city, even Vice City could be in the game. |
Well it's not based on Southern California then. Then it would be based on California if it had LV and SF and then it wouldn't be based on anything if Vice City would be in it. If I would make a 3D-model of Southern Cali and make it exactly like the real thing, but I would change the name of some roadside diner from "Earl's Place" to "Danny's Place" and maybe change a few roads, that would already be re-imagined version of South Cali. |
Right. Rockstar deliberately said re-imagined Southern California to inform us what the real-world reference is. The re-imagined Southern California will re-use the name San Andreas in GTA V, but it's not the same San Andreas that included Northern California and Nevada, just as Liberty City is not the same in III and IV. (San Fierro and Las Venturas may still exist fictionally in other parts of the state of San Andreas not depicted in GTA V. There's GTA VI and VII.)

What planet do you live on where the sun rises in the west and sets in the east? |
OMG =)) | lol ok fair enough But you see my point about the sun's position as to where certain locations are? I don't have a clue about that sort of thing, hence why i was asking the question, just chucked it out there. And then maybe someone with a larger brain than my own could maybe give a more in-depth look at it.

I've just made an interesting analysis using the angle of the buildings downtown. First shot I want to mention:  By masser120 at 2011-11-09 Look at the drawn lines near the downtown area. See the hill on the left? Next image (I call it protagonist image), is taken closer by, but also a little bit more to the left (not much). From this we can conclude that the next image is probably shot in one of the appartment buildings in one of the previous buildings. Also, take a look at the hills in the protagonist shot. Left and right there are hills, so that is the same as in the first shot. From this we can conclude there are hills on the southeast and northeast. There also seems to be a hill behind the building under construction. This hill would be located east of LA.  By masser120 at 2011-11-09 See the marks left and right? Look at the next picture with the marks left and right. That's right! The buildings are reversed. Since this defenitely looks like evening, this must be facing west. That means the previous pictures are looking towards the east. It's also clear that there are hills towards the northwest.  By masser120 at 2011-11-09 Last picture is the accident. This is hard to find the angle, but I believe it is taken north of the downtown area, just as the golf shot would also be (also hard to find, but that's a lot closer to downtown). There seems to be no hills south of downtown. Also, because of the cloudy weather the smog seems to have cleared.  By masser120 at 2011-11-09 I think in the end we can conclude that it's very plausible that there is a band of hills towards the north and scattered hills towards the east and southeast. Just as is with actual LA.
