HOW BIG IS THE MAP in L.A. Noire? Drive Across the Map

Map Size: driving 15:26 minutes from end to end!
How big is the map in LA Noire? Let's drive across the entire map. No, I'm not a bad driver, it's just too difficult to drive in these old a** 1945 cars! And somebody sitting next to me criticizing me all the time is not helping me either. I have to switch cars twice because I destroyed them. It's so easy to wreck these worthless rusty wrecks! But anyway I reached the other side of the Map like I always do! A real HowBigistheMapper always reaches the other end! Although I am not so sure if I will ever reach the other end of the Map in the next game I will do on HBitM...

I love this game and the real map because when I was in LA I could compare the same exact places what was there 70 years ago. The location of my hostel on hollywood blvd is in this game too.

[@HowBigistheMap]

I think it gives a better, more realistic idea of L.A. than True Crime: Streets of LA.

the map looks way bigger than it is

[@HowBigistheMap]

Maybe because the Map isn't like a square, but more like a strip.

[@JimTheCurator]

​@@willythegman5509I've been playing this game on and off periodically since it came out two consoles ago, and just in the last couple days I've found a few places in game I've never been to.

[@Xegethra]

This map is accurate to that corner of L.A. I don't really know if it's accurate to 40's L.A or modern day L.A. pretending it's 40's layout. But here's an overlay of the game map over the real L.A. one. lanoire.wikia.com/wiki/File:Lanoiremap.jpg

[@lilchad-ig1oj]

The only thing is that the map is a strip

[@DmitriyK12]

True Crime Streets of Los Angeles and or Just Cause 2 has a much larger overall map than GTA V...sadly TC: Hong Kong was scraped and instead we received a somewhat neutered/scaled down version of the original idea. Just Cause 3 ,on the other hand , is a terrific/wonderful sequel to JC 2...only much larger and grander in size of the map /number of side activities ! U^ｪ^U 💪 👻😏

[@DmitriyK12]

@@lilchad-ig1oj The L.A. Noire map wasn't a spec or a strip of the entire city of Angels...but it was trimmed down to only allow Cole Phelps to roam or traverse some of the city/region (even though the map had no reason to suffocate the user so much and or put up barricades near the outskirts of town). In my honest opinion the development teams of L.A. Noire became too ambitious and was sadly rushed to market/store shelves just like other IP's of yesteryear.

[@goodwiil]

it's a shame this game didn't implement a "true crime" type of approach, you just cruise around and crimes pop up, in the meanwhile you have stores to go to, vehicle upgrades and so on. they could've kept the story exactly the same but just put a little more emphasis on the open world and this game would've had much more longevity.

[@BeachBaller]

Does LA Norie take place in the same universe as GTA 4, Chinatown wars and GTA 5

[@HowBigistheMap]

Sort of. But it takes place in a different time, it's Los Angeles in 1947

[@BeachBaller]

How Big is the Map? Oh ok. I haven't played the game before so I didn't know that. I might buy it soon

[@user-jb6pb5wb2f]

I assume not, because this is Los Angeles, and in GTA V it's Los Santos. They're breaking the connection with reality, so it's not the same universe. Remember also that part of Los Santos was burnt down in the last mission of GTA San Andreas, which is in 1996, and GTA V is the same city 13 years later.

[@HowBigistheMap]

Black Chopper: True. Thanks for the extra information!

[@Xegethra]

You can say the spoof cities exist alongside the real ones....mostly because of songs on the radio will mention real places and in the 3d universe at least, Miami and Florida are mentioned.
