A lot of you have been asking for a true open world city (City v2), and I finally have something to show. It's still rough, but this is just the beginning! There are no missions in this city yet, but there are police, and pedestrians will call the police if they see crimes happening.
What's available now:
a large city area that represents half of the new island, or maybe even 1/3 of the new island
police patrols that are watching for crimes. They will chase you on foot or by car
10+ vehicle types to drive or carjack. You can even carjack police cars
random gangs in the city. Gangs all wear the same color, and they will fight other gangs. Police will fight gangs when they see them.
pedestrians will call for the police if you run over them or shoot at them.
a hospital you can enter. If you are killed, you will respawn at the hospital
What's coming in the future:
a new campaign built specifically for this city with randomly generated missions. In this campaign, there will be a power struggle between 4 mob bosses.
several building interiors, and shops to buy various things from
player characters will get an apartment to furnish. Shop at furnitures stores with money you earn from missions. Better stuff for your apartment will give you better stats, like a better bed will increase your max health.
workout at the gym to increase your strength, learn new finisher moves, or level up finisher moves with stuff like splash damage.
online Co-op in the city?
Anyway, I think that's all for now. We can discuss more in the Steam community!
