    Im thinking somewhere in the line of... "Bribe: Pay $5 in IAP to avoid being caught by police"

    Then every 3rd objective will be swarming with cops, only way to finish the game is to keep bribing em... Unless you buy a tank for $99.99 which cant be stopped by any police cars or armored cars. <-- Oh but you have to wait 24 hours for your Tank to arrive.

    Guys, it's gonna be the same type of game as Gangstar Rio. Premium with the option to spend money on in game currency and respect. I would be surprised if it goes beyond that, since gameloft has confirmed over 20 times on every social media site that its gonna be premium. DH3, Six Guns, DH4 all sucked due to freemium so I understand why there is concern.

    Do you remember last "Gangstar" game? After Rio, GL said that they wouldn't make another one. Two months later, they released a freemium game with assets from Gangstar Miami Vindication called Urban Crime, where you actually needed to buy cars before stealing them.
    I'd say that's the main reason why nobody wants another freemium Gangstar game.

    Not keeping my hopes up on this one. 'Got really burned by the DH4 fiasco. Even if they say it won't be free, there will probably be tons of IAP's and parts in the game that will be insanely difficult, with "you can't progress without using bugs or forking over real money"

    Yes but I remember an interview with gameloft saying that the Gangtar series would remain paymium (one time price with option of IAP but not required) and urban crime would be the freemium version.

    In my opinion this should be the final gangstar, unless they do an mmo/multiplayer version. As far as a single player campaign, they've done almost everything they can.

    Except the following: Dinosaurs, Aliens, Area 51, swords, play as a police officer, play in NYC, branching paths, lovecraftian monstrocities, the 1970s, play as a ninja, etc.
    (I could go on and on.)

    Dinosaurs: too far out there, maybe for a mini game of some kind
    Aliens: I want that to be in this :D
    Area 51: same as aliens
    Swords: that's already in Gangstar Rio
    Play as Police Officer: it would be fun but its kinda similar to 9MM
    NYC: been done too many times, would love one set in Paris or Tokyo though
    Branching paths: gangstar 1 had it
    1970's: gangstar in the past would be very interesting, didn't think of that
    Ninja: again it strays too far from the gangstar series

    When do you guys anticipate some actual gameplay or screenshots? I would hope we get a look at the game sometime in the next week, even if its just a screenshot or two. Live action teaser trailers #

    The police officer would be cool in a 1970s era St. Louis. Hows that?

    I would definitely play that, but I doubt that St. Louis would get get chosen as the location for gangstar, even though its a great city.

    You're using an iPod Touch 4. You're going to see the arse-end of the graphics spectrum. No fancy shaders or post-processing effects, and a hell of a lot of fog to keep a stable framerate. You'll also experience stuttering as your RAM cache is cleared to load new areas.

    If they're using anything better, their experience will also be smoother.

    Don't care what you guys say, or how many times GL says on any Facebook post or even directly from their mouth that this will be premium. I am telling you this will be FreePremium. That means premium price with freemium iaps. Others have gotten it right, pay to steal cars, pay to get out of jail, pay this that this that this that. They simply know the formula to make money and don't care. Sure I'd love a zero iap premium just like gta, I'd pay anything up to and including ten bucks if it looked polished. But it just ain't happening. I'm hoping I'm wrong and this post just ends up a troll, I really do.
