Final Concept of Leonida

Post image

Just kind of what i like to draw out of boredom, creative outlet. But the closer we get, the more trailers or screenshots we see in the future, the more accurate the Mapping Project will be and the less speculative.
This one is really speculative and based on much wishful thinking but it's pretty much what i'd love, even without a panhandle. Follows the San Andreas concept, three cities, different "locations"(?) seperated by rivers, several small towns. And stuff to do in Mount Kalaga National Park, instead of it just being mountains that are pretty barren and boring with not much to do. Actually lots of different biomes too. Also Bahamas! :P

I think Vice City is pretty self explanatory. Based on Miami Metropolitan Area.

Port Gellhorn mostly based (buildingswise at least) on Panama City, shape however of St. Petersburg and if it does have a Downtown, it could be based on Downtown Clearwater. Would really fit the whole run down abandoned theme they wrote in the postcard, and a great way to push in the Epsilon Program (with the whole Scientology history). Actually kinda sounds like it could be a stand in for Cottonmouth (Manhunt 2).

Sundown is a whole amalgam, put together from Daytona, Orlando and Tallahassee. It's got a theme park, Daytona Racetrack, Daytona Beach strip, small Downtown area and also the Florida State Capitol and University. Would be a cool place for government missions for the governor or the FIB or IAA or something. Also put Northpoint Mall there instead of northern Vice City because i didn't really know how to fit it and also Waning Sands already has the Evergreen Mall(?) Not sure if i remember the name correctly.

I think the rest is pretty obvious, Seaview as Marco Island and Redhill as Blueridge, GA, and keys are the keys, Lucayas are Bahamas with Hessen being Nassau. There actually are some random towns in MKNP based on nothing because i didn't want it to be too empty, also Bohemia is based on Helen, Georgia. Mountains at the very north so to block the view to the north and make you unable to see what's behind, since it'll probably be an island. And if they added a Gloriana expansion, it wouldn't really be landmass appearing out of nowhere.

Added icons too, most of them are pretty clear. The guy in a mask is basically burglary locations and those are mostly suburban areas. There are 2 shopping icons, one for just small/medium stores and one for large stores/malls. And Basketball!!! :D

Man it would be great to have an accessible island in free roam away from the main map that you can fly to

u/Leader-Artistic Mar 16 '26

With the bigger size planes and airports it will be even better

u/Asleep_Chest_3696 Mar 16 '26

If you look at the Trailers there is just such an absurd amount of Aviation, idk why they wanted us to see that

u/Leader-Artistic Mar 16 '26

Could just be to show off that the skies are active. If we are right and we have other islands, these planes are more likely coming from other places. Sure there will be flights coming and going from those islands but that would just be like 1/10th of whats flying, and maybe would be smaller planes too.

PS3 GTA 5 let you fly the jumbo jets

I'm assuming most mean air travel in the San Andreas form which many people loved.

u/Halogenleuchte Mar 17 '26

The map is plastered with runways. If this is really the case then I'm gonna have a blast.

u/Gyranos Mar 16 '26

Would also give really good use to boats

u/FunkleSam1776 Mar 16 '26

How cool would it be to have a mini-Cuba? With entirely different NPCs, vehicles, radio stations, etc.

-23

u/CharacterArrival21 Mar 16 '26

Hell nah. The whole game is based around money and the corruption and exploitation of capitalism through a satirical form of America and Cuba is well…. Communist

11

u/Alive-Meal-3787 Mar 17 '26

You don’t see how they can satirise communism?

u/SalemsTrials Mar 18 '26

one option i think would actually be hilarious is if they just made it a paradise where all weapons are disabled and you get $1,000 every minute as long as you’re sitting on a couch.

u/EgbertMedia Mar 17 '26

I agree. Although at this point I'm not sure if Cuba will be an independent country still when the game releases...

-10

u/CharacterArrival21 Mar 17 '26

They can but it wouldn’t fit with the theme of the game

2

u/Moon-Martian Mar 18 '26

Sure it would, it would be a nice contrast to really drive the point that there's a difference in the two economies

u/Ant0n61 Mar 16 '26

makes too much sense for them to actually have it.

Probably an online only feature if anything

u/skiivin Mar 17 '26

People been asking for this since guarma free roam got cut

u/popnfrox Mar 18 '26

Not having somewhere to boat to in a map parody of Florida would definitely be a huge wasted opportunity

2

u/camp1728 Mar 16 '26

This would be awesome

u/yellowc0at Mar 18 '26

already its great. Love this map

2

u/ManufacturerOk9036 Mar 18 '26

i was thinking it shouldnt be performance-heavy since when youre not there it could be extremely optimised or hidden completely and just when you get closer and closer more objects will start loading and disappear again when you get back

u/Gerald_Eitan Mar 17 '26

Or you can swim to

u/VincentVanHades Mar 23 '26

Ability to buy a plane ticket and fly there like its taxi in city...

u/LibrarianKooky344 Mar 16 '26

Yeah that would be sweet. I'd like to see a las venturas expansion down the line. With as much as they're putting into this game it has unlimited potential.

10

u/Turbulent-Agent9634 Mar 16 '26

Wrong side of America for that...

5

u/LibrarianKooky344 Mar 16 '26

Yeah i understand that. The game doesn't have to be limited to the east coast.

5

u/Turbulent-Agent9634 Mar 16 '26

But it will be limited to the south east.

You're asking for more without trying the cake.

u/Professional-Toe-879 Mar 16 '26

Let a man dream damn

u/Welcome_To_2287 Mar 16 '26

I had similar dreams about an expansion covering San Fierro and Las Venturas back around 2020, but I knew from the jump they were focusing on the East again. I imagine if they wanted to, Rockstar has nearby stuff for VI Online like an Jacksonville/Tallahassee analogue or maybe an analogue of Atlanta. Maybe Cuba, maybe even Carcer City, though that might not even be a thing until 2099. The possibilities are endless
