The Non-disclosure Embargo between various websites and Rockstar has been lifted, and more new has sprawled out about the game than you can imagine. This includes details about the misson (spoilers ahead) and images for the game as well as various previews. The source may just be a post, but if you take a closer look you will notice that the post contains numerous links to various articles all about GTAIV and the new information that was given to those that were able to see the 90-minute demostration of GTAIV.
Kru Edit: In retrospect, I have found numerous articles today, all for the same topic, and so as not to create duplicate articles, the source has now changed to a thread that houses links to each of these previews. Be spoiled ever more...
Mission Name: Search and Delete
Summary: Brucie asks Niko to kill an informant named Lyle Rivas, before Lyle has a chance to testify.
- Niko steals a police car in order to access the criminal database.
- After Rivas flees his residence, Niko takes after him in a high-speed chase that shows off the new and improved free-aim “drive-by” targeting mechanic.
- If Rivas escapes, Niko’s phone receives a text message allowing him to restart the mission immediately.
- During chases you can enter a chase cam that will reorient the camera to focus on your target, even if he gets out of your line of sight.
- This mission takes place in Broker, and parts of Bohan.
Mission Name: Deconstruction for Beginners
Summary: Niko offers to help Playboy X in taking out a few “union leaders” down at the construction site.
- Niko can now take cover behind anything in the game and engage in more sophisticated firefights than ever before. In addition, he can also blind fire over or around targets.
- Some cover points are destructible, and will degrade if fired upon.
- Targeting improvements include headshots, procedural damage, lock-on targeting, free-aim, and blind fire.
- Repeating failed missions will often result in brand new dialogue strings, which is one of the many ways GTA IV is aiming to keep things fresh and original even on repeated playthroughs.
- Rooftop sniper point helps illustrate the verticality and density that we’re aiming for.
- This mission takes place in Algonquin.
