{{Gripe}}I would like to see a fairly large Army Base, Okay I know that NYC has no Army Base but it has to have a National Guard Depot at least. If there was one I hope there would be APCs and an armory, but it can only be acessed once you get through a certain mission. | {{Gripe}}I would like to see a fairly large Army Base, Okay I know that NYC has no Army Base but it has to have a National Guard Depot at least.

Sure there's no Military activity in the game but in real life I dont think the NG has ever been called to take down one guy, that's what the SWAT (NOOSE) is for.--[[User:Gerry Spring|Gerry Spring]] 13:06, February 5, 2010 (UTC) | ||

You don't even get to try and eat the Heart Stopper to see Niko get a heart attack. | ||
:{{Rebut}}I don't think Niko really cares for what he consumes, since the food in Liberty City is probably a damn sight better than the chow he ate in the Army and on the merchant vessels he served on. An assortment of food items at a single restaurant had no tangible benefit in GTA:SA, so I'm sure Rockstar learned from their mistakes and kept it simple. | :{{Rebut}}I don't think Niko really cares for what he consumes, since the food in Liberty City is probably a damn sight better than the chow he ate in the Army and on the merchant vessels he served on.

::{{Gripe}}Yep. They kept it simple, so R* wants show players that they don't even want to increase the aspect of realism. The selection of foods would be nice, I mean what's so hard about adding that feature anyway? They've done that in GTA: SA, so they can't just leave it out for no apparent reason. If they are promoting the "Heart Stopper" on TV, then why not add it in the game? It would be funny to see Niko eat the "Heart Stopper" and then get a heart attack. | ::{{Gripe}}Yep.

{{Gripe}}I see your point in realism when it comes to food. But do you think Rockstar wanted players to focus on food, rather than the other fun things you can do.

But do you think Rockstar wanted players to focus on food, rather than the other fun things you can do. Possibly a reason why selections of food were not available, as opposed to San Andreas, was because eating was a method of regaining health in SA. And since R* focused on realism, they figured eating wasn't a realistic way to gain health. There are health packs and street vendors as another source to fix your health, or by means of cheats. Last thing, how fun would it be to sit in burger shot for an hour and eat? | ||

:::::{{Rebut}} That's all there is to do in the Airport. Kinda pointless, don't you think?

Second off hidden packages aren't even in GTA IV, and there are enough health packs around the city. Your suggestion to a shootout mission in an airport raises the question "What would happen if we made a mission about a shootout in an airport" which they did twice already in The Lost and Damned, and that raised a lot of 9/11 controversy. Think about it for a second, the airport is the way it is and is still very much interactive, so don't complain.--[[User:Gerry Spring|Gerry Spring]] 13:20, February 5, 2010 (UTC) | ||
