after reading that assassins creed 3 will have the npcs actually doing stuff and not just standing there it got me thinking about what if gta did it. i think we migcht see npcs at the movies, the beach(a lot maybe a party), weddings and funerals(completely from that thread), churches, schools(maybe that college from sa), etc. it can be fun on gta to start mayhem at random places whether it be a shooting, running people over, or just a fist fight.

From what we seen from the trailer and the screen shots, the NPC's would be more envolved whether it be from working out or construction.

What irritates me in previous GTA's is that pedestrians walk the street as if they just feel like stroling on the sidewalks and they dont have any purpose.

Some should walk faster than others, some with bags, backpacks. Actually go into cars that are parked or buildings, (which you should be able to enter as well).

I hope R* have improved the AI by a huge shot!

I'm sure they have.

[WhitValid]

They were walking the sidewalk like it's the only thing they knew how to do and the only place they had ever seen in their life. Turns out it's tru those npcs got no life.

This is exactly what I keep saying

The only real solution to this is MMO.

Yes people..... MMO.

I think we will see a few updates to npc behavior BUT nothing major until next-gen. Consoles just don't have the resources
right now to add anything drastic.

I'm sure however they will expand upon what IV and RDR did
NPC wise in those games. Construction, shop owners working etc.

GTA 4 was a milestone in peds aspect
(they use phones, drive a train, window shop, get arested randomly...)
I hope V will make eaven more progress with npc's but respect the work done from SA to IV.

[WhitValid]

You are right IV was very impressive at the time with its peds. But in today's world, something four years old seems ghetto because we're

spoiled brats

Cutscenes my friend, simple cutscenes.

Something that did seem a little off in GTAIV, if someone for instance with a clipboard were hit by a car, or even pushed, they would just walk off, not attempt to pick it up and continue. Seemed like an easy thing to sort out but overlooked.

They sure do. The only thing i don't really see is peds going into places.

[assmillk]

i want to see peds in restaurants, having conversations, swimming in the ocean, jogging in parks.

No..

in MMO everybody runs around.. it looks sh*t. MMO's are sh*t. Don't agree, go play APB (it's free) and we'll talk.

[MIKON8ERISBACK]

Anyone remember in San Andreas the way NPCs (non-player-characters, otherwise known as pedestrians) would purposely jump in front of your vehicle whilst driving at considerable speeds? I'm really surprised that wasn't patched in the PC and Xbox versions.
