Behind the [cut]scenes - Have a Heart (GTA IV)

[@assassinscreedfan124]

GTA 4 has aged so well. Still love this game even after 16 years.

[@georgechannyeinlwin6743]

This looks like a real movie behind the scenes, look at niko at the beginning of the video. He looks like he was preparing for the scenes.

[@GT7776]

he is stuck lmao, he's not even moving

[@vincent3363]

Its motion captured thats why it looks so natural

[@AlcatrazMeow]

I hope you are being sarcastic

[@TordaiJenci-x7g]

ITS THE STREETS MAN THE STREETS! MAN!

[@TigerChamp99]

Niko loves having genuine celebrities in the back of his car.

[@Claude_Lib]

Really love how in IV the cutscenes are shot in one continuous take unlike V/RDR2, where the characters teleport all around the place when out of frame for more cinematic feel.

[@MolinariDC2]

I mean, there are some cutscenes in rdr2 that are the same thing sometimes, like American Venom we don't see Dutch making a gun trick to holster it, it's off camera

[@coenisgreat]

This was because of the technology of Scene Capture at the time didn't allow for editing, so a cutscene had to be recorded, and then played, all in one take, and any flub or error meant it had to be started again. the same happened with Red Dead Redemption 1. Technology has advanced since then to allow those kinds of changes.

[@GR_BLITZ]

Fun Fact: its so weird but the cameraman still alive while you drive the car to the doctor, open the trunk use the rifle and aim at his face, the eyes are moving and if u shoot he screams Lol

[@whatever57010]

yep, as seen in my 11 year old all possibilities video

[@Claude_Lib]

That's just a technicality, the NPC has to be alive to be able to play an animation (the arm hanging out if the trunk lid pops open).

[@Smiley0.1]

​@@whatever57010"11 year old video." Christ, that's so surreal to hear nowadays. Still sucks those videos of yours didn't get the views it deserved.

[@misipapa3626]

@@Claude_Lib I'm geniunly curious... Why is that? Why won't animations work if the npc is dead? it always bugged me :D

[@thunderparch]

It’s quite interesting that they animated characters even when not on screen but didn’t bother to in RDR2.

[@Randarrradara]

RDR2 is huge in size already

[@gabrielmartines3510]

Because the cutscenes in RDR 2 are actually optimized.

[@rlira8072]

It's all motion captured. Put the actors in funny suits, slap the data in the game, tweak some details and boom.

[@FezCaliph]

Shoutout to Elizabeth for helping Manny help the streets for once 😅

[@TopDogAnubis9047]

Fr💯💪🏿🤣

[@ATP2555ify]

He wanted to bust a dealer then the dealer busted a cap.

[@LeviTheHyperLegendSpeed04]

“Well he said he was going to bust a dealer.”

[@RomanZ-zy1ef]

And he busted the wrong one Elizabeta was a drug baroness not an ordinary dealer and she just ended them both so easily

[@ATP2555ify]

1:04 Niko is fully animated even though you can't see him normally.

[@DJ_Thanos]

Mocap

[@PrishelecSMarsa]

You know what we all want... Behind the (cut)scenes in Boulevard baby from tbogt

[@heavenlanes5598]

If you pause just as Liz shoots Manny and his cameraman, you can see the Glock's slide operation, something you don't see in normal gameplay.

[@JinWBO]

This is super fascinating, great video! It genuinely feels like a set where everyone's doing one take. I love this game, so it was really interesting to see GTA IV in this perspective.

[@lovepreetgames]

I love seeing the unseen angles, also manny dying was a great moment, i always found it weird they played the sad mission complete sound at the end just because manny died of all people

[@ivan_egorov_]

1:46 Now imagine a scene like this in GTA V. GTA IV is on another level

[@halcyon4485]

wouldn't fit into GTA V, since GTA V is meant to take on the cartoonish approach rather than a realistic one.

[@risingunity6446]

"He'd been trying to help the streets his whole life.... Maybe he'll actually be doing it now" hits hard...

[@setsu2172]

Manny may have been annoying but he didn't deserve to be put down like a dog in the street

[@JulianSauco]

That last line. GTA IV’s script is on par (if not better) than a lot of AAA movies, let alone other games.

[@the_sam_strong]

Looks like the FIB had also hidden cameras at Elizabeta's place lol

[@space3828]

"Hed been trying to help the streets his whole life..." nikos sense of humor is cynical and i love it

[@ssssssssssssssssss50]

This just made me realise that those cutscenes are much better than V’s because of the angles used. V’s are basically like the behind the scenes stuff you showed here

[@danpatrickth2759]

See the camera man doesn't survive

[@TopDogAnubis9047]

I laughed my ass off every time i got to this mission, cameraman done caught a bullet and he didn't even do anything 🤣💀💀💀

[@extremeking425]

I love these angles

[@Emilio723]

0:55 I love how Jay and Manny appear literally out of nowhere

[@extremeking425]

All I wanna know is this, as someone who lived in the Projects twice, how were Niko and Liz able to get both of their bodies downstairs and into the back of the car without anybody noticing?

[@dilloncasey1194]

Magic

[@whatever57010]

she is on the ground floor, fast with a lookout is possible, not likely, but possible

[@dnice213]

People don’t snitch in the PJs

[@gabrielmartines3510]

She lives in a high crime area, even if someone noticed it, they probably wouldn't report it.

[@RomanZ-zy1ef]

​@@gabrielmartines3510true the area where she was is still flowing with various high crime rate where everyone are doing what they want.

[@howardmctroy3303]

I actually liked Manny; it was a change of pace to work for someone who wanted to at least pretend they were doing something good.

[@raymanmann8132]

Like Playboy X

[@FezCaliph]

My favorite scene. The way she pops them like it’s just another day 😅😫

[@eneseusm459]

It's awesome they are acting that scene in one take. That's theatre

[@michigan102]

I love how casually inconvenienced she is 😂

[@SeriousDragonify]

And they returned Manny recarnation in GTA 5. Young Ancestor.

[@HotRod-05]

Manny meets Big Smoke in the afterlife. Big Smoke: these streets are cold dawg, like it says in the book we are blessed, and cursed. Manny: what fucking book man? Big Smoke: same things make us laugh. Make us cry.

[@MrSeekerOfPeace]

I like to reference this scene when telling people this game is an underrated gritty New York crime experience.

[@jsmoothie7001]

It’s the streets, man 😂😂

[@NikoUnderWorld]

one of the most shocking scenes (I couldn't find a comment, mind you)

[@dilloncasey1194]

Let’s go bowling

[@relentlesschaos7445]

Manny and his cameraman both just came out of thin air man😂

[@ATP2555ify]

That's the power of the streets, man.

[@camwilson2583]

Manny was funny ash imo along with brucie I legit died when he called himself “The streets” 😂😂

[@sonicbobomb15]

THE STREETS HAVE SPOKEN NOW LEAVE MY PEOPLE ALONE!!!

[@raptor4937]

Perfection

[@johnantonescu5096]

"So?" lol

[@twinberwolves4231]

Nice.

[@Truthe]

DO MORE OF THESE

[@Truthe]

DO THE ONE WHERE NIKO KICKS IN FLORIANS DOOR

[@dusanmilovic7421]

Good

[@space3828]

How did you come up with this idea?

[@CollinMac96]

I wonder what the last thing that was going through Manny’s mind was. Rip 🪦

[@RomanZ-zy1ef]

The way she just killed them like it was all nothing idk why but Elizabeta was a true dangerous woman tough childhood made her become strong.

[@Armi1P]

Well you gotta give it to her she wasn't in the mood for this.

[@RomanZ-zy1ef]

@@Armi1P after everything that happened she surely wasn't in any mood Jorge turned states Martha probably got arrested or deported back to Puerto Rico and Elizabeta was done for like she said "everyone's a snitch" (except for Niko).

[@raymanmann8132]

also high strung, paranoid and on a lot of crack

[@RomanZ-zy1ef]

@@raymanmann8132 yeah that too

​@@RomanZ-zy1efDon't forget Andreas. Wonder what happened to him.

[@GT7776]

pls do more ❤❤

[@treontaejones]

Gta IV

[@raphaelkunold]

This is the first time i notice, As Tough as Elizabeta may seem she always keeps a safe distance to Niko. Niko is such an animal he doesnt need words to project that hes absolutely lethal.

[@thanator6094]

I'm surprised there's no cuts in animations or altered light, it's all just one take with natural light from the interior. Gta v and rdr2 cutscenes are all over the place

[@NataniWolf]

I liked Manny more than Elizabetha

[@minneeagle]

I love how Niko actually shows genuine shock to Elizabeta shooting Manny and Jay, which is understandable as she just suddenly pulled the strap and ended their lives right on the spot. 😂

[@Arientis]

Good riddance, Manny was annoying af 😂

[@Mitch93636]

FIRST!!!!

[@TraPortal007]

Imagine in the future we can use AI and not also make it cinematic but character developing full story with extra side missions and skills
