I think everyone is wrong where it will be located. Rockstar themselves said it's a remote island, what's more remote than the other side of US? Alamo Sea ofc! I mean think about it. Does anybody goes up there? No, so its remote. Hot? Very. Alamo Sea would be finally useful? Yep. It's a win win situation in my book

No seriously, why did I move here?

I've updated the whole map Sorry for the watermark, but it seems like majority of people using my stuff cant be even f*cked to say my goddamn name. Also my analysis: Please discuss it, I'll try my best to update it I'll update OP soon as well.

Imagine

Has it hit anyone else thar we now have an official new gta universe location? the last one we had was north Yankton. I think it’s kinda cool honestly.

dude i'm totally gonna get fired for this, but ask and ye shall receive

people on PC:

it's literally just an island and/or the airstrip on the map. first, if the sa map faces this way, the island has to face the same way. otherwise that would be one convoluted and unreliable tech thing whatever in that teaser. which makes it absolutely impossible to face it the way the reddit post thinks. now time for my sh*tty map markings, it's already been established that the purple line is roughly the dockyard, and the big cyan blob is roughly the area where the radio tower is (radio tower only marked for reference, see this shot showing the whole dock with radio tower in the distance, in bottom right of that shot you can see the crane and the roofed docks which are the exact same seen below) the line to the east roughly follows the "coastline" in the trailer, same on the west side in a very similar way. so, taking that into consideration, it appears that shot is facing roughly this way which is directly in front of the smaller island and the airstrip in the distance (WHICH ALSO explains the tower looking thing in the far distance) and finally, rockstar calls it a "remote island", implying that the island is nowhere near SA... ...not to mention that the drug lord wouldn't be an imbecile to set up their illegal base of operations on an island right next to a government-owned military base

distance = speed x time

They already have one of those on the main map

Forget the gameplay, I want the update to drop to just settle these arguments.

I'd be cool with a Shafter classic, but an AMG Hammer based Shafter Retro would be cooler, IMO

found the rear view of the jeep

So I went ahead and did some scouting around Tongva hills, found a good spot for a screenshot and yep: when you overlay them, it's a very close match. The sea level doesn't quite match up because I was above water in a Frogger, but otherwise, the outline of the mountain range seems to fit very, very well.

In fact, every time you join an Arena War game, the whole map gets unloaded. Video of me demonstrating it:

Lol every time I come in this thread people always petty as hell wit they arguments dont nobody give a damn, get hyped bois this DLC is finna be lit

Remember this? By tomorrow, it would be exactly a month since that "Stay Tuned" statement. Kinda makes me feel like an announcement may happen tomorrow alongside a reveal of the Photo challenge winners, it fits nicely.

Really hope we see some classic cadillac's added! 74 Eldorado (Esperanto Classic) 66 Coupe Deville (Manana Classic) Been requesting this specific year for awhile, hopefully we get lucky.

Ye huv nothin' tae worry aboot brother......

Pablo Escobar's place really reminds me of that cartel mansion from Breaking Bad / Better Call Saul Offtopic nonsense: edit: Something from another thread, seems like he might be onto something. Maybe Karen Daniels and Agent 14 will be undercover on that beach party we seen?

- Phone go Ring Ring... - Money go Cha-ching... - Submarine go Ping Ping Screen Loading: Bienvenido, a Cayo Perico...

Bruh,isn't that just a common path type irl? Also I'm pretty sure I've seen this in other places of the map

Funny thing about that is, that the yacht isn't actually moving when you re-adjust the position of the yacht, The camera just slides across the yacht making it look like it moves. Pretty clever.

Bruh... Its a public forum, you keep insisting on something thats wrong, different people will keep correct you... No idea why you getting so mad about it. If you can't handle it and react with projections and tantrums every time someone corrects you, I don't think a public forum is a place for you... All you had to say is "you guys have a point I was wrong" or if thats too hard just argue your points better and prove why everyone else in wrong. Or just leave it be and time will tell lol. Theres nothing to be so mad about here my dude. We talking about the size of a fictional map... But clearly you take silly stuff waaaaay to personally...

I mean, of course you COULD be right but everything within reason points to it definitely being a location outside of the United States, and possibly outside of North America entirely. Everything you just said is basically strawman. and yeah MOST gta’s introduced new locations but not all of them and we’ve never had a map expansion added and we’ve never had a secondary location outside of the US. WHAT THE HELL IS THIS ??!??

Tnx! I knew about it but I couldn't find a picture online. You never give up, do you? But thanks for admitting you preaching stupid things. Cause thats exactly why I mentioned that. Here's the boat/submarine on the original map vs "your map" See how much of this is simply fan fiction? According to "your map", this ship would have to be bigger than every single "village", every single "town" and every single "city" you apparently see on that island... lol. Not to mention all the other things that don't make sense. Yet, you still won't read it... We have 10 pages full of different people and they all coming up with the same exact conclusions independently. But you? You instead keep being convinced by a fanmade interpretation that has nothing to do with reality... This overblown map was made before we even got the higher quality screenshots or the second trailer... His dirt roads are wider than the biggerst highway in Los Santos lol Here you fool, read those and stop bringing up your fake news from reddit.

My thoughts about island: There is no towns on this island. Just a drug lord mansion, that party stage on the beach, some technical buildings, shacks and airport. No civilians except people who works on a drug plants. Island will be fully accessible in a freeroam after the finish of storyline (taking over the mansion?). No police except Merryweather security or gang/army AI. Island will be accessible through loading screen or cutscene. Not in singleplayer - obviously.

Always shocked by Rockstar's incredibly naive view of how their players interact with their online games. Such an idealized view, so far from reality.

This interview in a nutshell: WE HAVE A PLAN!

lol, what a bunch of BS

You turn your back for 10 minutes and what happens? Flame wars about 'essays.' If you want an essay, go read something in Writer's Discussion, I'm at 75K words on my own submission! I'm only sticking my nose in to remind you all we are watching, and will take necessary steps if we have to. Please play nice.

Anyone who goes in expecting to buy a mansion on the new freeroam island where they can fly their f*cking broomsticks around, stands to be disappointed. Anyone who sticks to observable reality "oh there's a new island and a new heist happens there cool" can only be pleasantly surprised. Not to say one way is better than the other, just that stomach ulcers suck.

Since some people think the island was inspired by Pablo Escobar's place, we might seem some of his cars Or planes. Nevada confirmed? Both maps? You mean that one reddit gif? Nah, I think thats just a coincidence. WildBrick made pretty good argument for it. You could match the same way any mountain top if you just place yourself in the right spot. Thats probably just a hill on the new island. And the "skyscraper" is the radio tower / guards tower / water tower etc. There’s pros and cons to every alternate timeline. Fun facts about this one - It’s got giant, telepathic spiders, eleven 9/11s, and the best ice cream in the multiverse!

For f*ck sakes VIRGINIA starts with a VI and the cordinates take u to Vi in the ground . This the first I'm 100% sure that was deliberate. Doesn't mean we are gonna get gta 6 soon but definitely confirms that cayo perico heist will have something to do with someone in GTA 6 . Maybe the "Most Notorious drug dealer" is the Protagonist . We rob one of his many islands and that won't even make a dent in his bank . also some people will believe Random cunts on Twitter but not the fact that rockstar literally is hinting at Vi is just nuts

Yeah we will see... how you embarrass yourself On topic... I don't know about you guys but when I think about Tactical Weapons this comes to my mind: It would be nice to have both, brand new weapons (with fan favorites from the past included) and MKII variants, nice and balanced.

Ah'm ah bit confused by thi threads title as ah've yet tae see any new vehicles. Aw ah see are auld yin's...

I feel like Karen Daniels will be involved somehow, remember this? (unused outfits) If there was ever a moment for an IAA agent to be featured in a bikini it would be this one, my guess is she's been working a case against this El Rubio character for a while but so far she's having a difficult time getting any hard evidence that directly ties crimes to El Rubio, so eventually she just gets Lester involved to heist the island & have El Rubio lose their cool (slip up & make mistakes so crimes can be tied to them) while not having her cover blown in the process.

Because they'll appear in the B&M thread when they overhype themselves into heart failing levels of stress, and the DLC is nothing like they're expecting....

More narcistic drivel. I go by what R* actually does (and refuses to do) over the last two years; not what they spew from their mouths to try and sound good. Don't tell us how much you "care" and how much you "value" your gaming community, R*. Show us in-game.

Even though I no longer truly believe there will be an actual town on the island, I still would have loved to buy a cool little apartment above a vendor shop on the main street or something, with a small bedroom with mosquito nets over the windows, and a living room with a small kitchenette/bar, and an old couch, with windows overlooking tropical jungle and the ocean. And then downstairs behind the store could be a single car garage, that opens and closes without any loading screens, with a vehicle that you choose from a limited list of themed cars, like an old CJ Jeep or maybe a Suzuki Samurai/Jimny, or an old air-cooled VW of some sort, like a fastback: Which you would be stuck using while on the island, but you could then buy back on the mainland and have Benny restore:

Even with all the arguing, it’s an exciting time for this community and I’m glad to see all the activity from all directions. I can’t wait for the DLC and I hope we all find something to enjoy.

I played enough of R* games to know we getting one of those bad boys

not once have i said anything about the bodies. and yes, you're somewhat right. map rotation is about as trustworthy as the sun positions. however, unlike the sun positions, it's less likely that rockstar messed with the rotation in the teaser. perspective, focus blur, and zoom are very important. take a look at this shot - the area in the airstrip looks like it's 3x the distance from the island, it already 'disintegrates' into the horizon. so, yes, it makes perfect sense for the smaller island to look the way it did. sun position is completely irrelevant. since early 2013 it was known that rockstar likes to move the sun around to get a nicer lighting for screenshots and trailers. well, yes, there is sea in between the docks and the island. how open it is, you can't really tell from such a low angled shot in the trailer. can you link me to such evidence? i was under the impression that the coordinates are random numbers made for the sake of the surveil.exe overlay. especially seeing how the coordinates literally never change throughout the entire teaser even though it shows various locations on the island and also shows los santos. citation needed. for all we know, it's a random tower on the island. and here below i present more conclusive and sh*ttily drawn observations; first, this shot: purple lines are the coastlines. to the left is a line at the docks, to the right is a line of the edge of the island, including a small island. the red line is a beach next to the airport the blue line is the landmass in between the docks and the island yellow line is the island cyan line are roads green line is the airstrip runway putting this onto a map, we get this pink tinted box is roughly the location of the tower, and the lines sticking out are the edge of the shot. the roads are very clearly visible on the map, and the purple lines of the docks clearly support that. seeing the airstrip is and where the docks line cuts off makes it very easy to map out the blue, red, and yellow lines. do note that the "blue-line" landmass inbetween the docks and the island is obscuring the island, so it's a bit hard to perfectly map out the island. BUT the fact that it obscures a part of it shows that it's at a higher elevation. this is relevant in the next shot. also you may see that the visible (tiny!) bit of the island is at a pretty low elevation. note: i drew the blue line a bit too far, there's actually a bit of sea inbetween, but it's out of the shot anyway so not like it matters. still, bringing it up because inb4 "well there's clearly land here blocking everything" so, now we have the second shot: red line is to split it in "half", the map will make more sense of it. basically it's a cutoff of obscured vs non-obscured areas. orange lines are the "coastline" of the aforementioned "landmass in between docks and the island" you can see it elevating rather steeply, which supports the claim made in shot #1. pink line is the coastline for the island or "tongva hills", if you insist. cyan tinted box (looks more green) is the ghost tower. so, here's the map, even more convoluted than the last one. apologies in advance to colorblind people. to start: red dot is the location of the shot/dinghy. light pink lines are rough edges of the shot pink line - """tongva hills""" island coastline orange lines - landmass & the random rock lines cyan dot - POSSIBLE BUT NOT CONFIRMED location of the ghost tower red-tinted area (looks more orange) is the very clearly open sea, which is half-obscured by bushes in that shot. you can see a lot of sea there. purple-tinted area is the airstrip, completely obscured by the island then you have small orange-tinted and green-tinted areas, those are obscured by the small part of the landmass. green tint just basically marks where the island would be obscuring stuff, not like it matters. i hope it is starting to make sense now. you can see the island elevation decrease pretty low by the edge of it, which you can see how low it gets in that first shot. it's even possible that the island isn't even that tall at all, it could be just the perspective of the shot messing with things. again, look at the first shot and how distant the airstrip looks and compare it to the island you think is a random mountain in SA. the island looks much closer than the airstrip does. plus obviously you are not going to see a single bit of the airstrip in this shot, it's pretty flat and low as the first shot shows. also, full disclaimer, ALL map markings are rough estimates, they're not precise to the point, and were made to get a point across. so just because one small point will be off, it doesn't mean that the whole thing is invalid. oh, and i might have made some typos and/or gotten some things slightly wrong and/or forgotten some. but i cba to double check all that because i already spent way too much time trying to point out the obvious enjoy

Runner flash game anyone?

Can we just delete the last two or three pages? The sheer amount of masturbatory remarks is starting to make me feel like I need to shower.
