guild wars nightfall being 15,000 square miles is just bull.

its all instanced, you cant walk from one outpost to the next so the map mostly doesn't exist.

It's the size of the game world not the size of an individual zone that counts surely.

WOW isnt XX,XXX square miles either because the regions are split between a loading screen ;)

Infinite or near enough.

How can it be infinite? Is that just the single player map?

I used to play a multiplayer map where i was whitelisted (its on this forum) and it was a set size. It was huge but it was a set size

Linktart was the name of it

You can still see my 'house' Just outside I made a lava fountain so I could find it on the map at night

In practice, technical reasons (the limits of 32-bit math[1]) force the maximum map size, including the Far Lands, to be around 9.3 million times the surface area of Earth[1], which comes out to about 4.7 quadrillion km2 (The hard limit where chunks are overwritten is at X/Z of ±34,359,738,368, making the world at most 68,719,476,736 meters wide and long, which is about 4,722,366,482,869,645 km2. When compared to Earth's total surface area, 510,072,000 km2, this works out to be about 9,258,235 times that). Whilst the horizontal planes of the maps are vast in size, the vertical plane remains at a fixed (soft limit) 256-block height [2].

I'm very excited for GTA V... Here's to hoping for a fairly speedy PC launch.
 
I dunno about you folks but I'm bored with the whole errand boy concept of this franchise.

Go here, do that. Go there, collect this. Kill some mafia guys. Take Joe to the shops. ZzzzZZzz

In GTAV I want to conquer neighborhoods, build up my gang strength and roll into other hoods, partaking in if I choose to and create massive gang wars process. Sure have some missions along the way, but ultimately, I want it be a Kingpin.

If this is the way it's going, awesome! But if it's just another game with a 100 boy scout missions to complete, then I'll just stick with a heavily modded GTAIV for a while thanks.

That is of course, after a year or two when the modders bring V to the PC standards it should be.

So basically, GTA San Andreas?

To be honest, I would love to see that game remade with the newer engine. Sure, this is going back to the same (well, similar) location, but I doubt that all of the game mechanics of SA will be present, as pretty much all of them were absent in GTA4 and it's expansions...

Bring back bicycles!
 
If they're going to do a remake, they should do Vice City. Still the best in the series in my opinion. Love the setting/sound track, the linen suits, the awesome house you get in the middle of the city etc.

You're missing the vital part of Vice City! Owning the businesses!

Nothing beats the Ice Cream business! :D
