Vercettian Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 The Seperate disc idea was thrown around some time ago... My theory is, if it IS all of San Andreas, it will not be possible for the player to drive between the cities... rather, you will be able to go to Los Santos and the surrounding countryside, in turn, using the airport (as in San Andreas) you can fly to other cities, but perhaps on other discs... i.e a disc for LS, a disc for LV and a disc for SF... Perhaps a bit far-fetched and overly optimistic as to the capacity of R* but one can but dream... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheIntellectualz Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 I used to visit the forums everyday up until a few weeks after the first trailer was released. The hype for V has died down a little bit everyday because their is no new info that states anything I already know. Yet people make it their daily job to come here with their uneducated theories as to when they games gonna be released, is Ned Luke the voice of the protag, is sf/lv gonna be in V and the most annoying one "R* said "surronding areas". The point I'm making is this, the only reason we want the game in a few months is because instead of continuing with our normal lives, we'd rather sit on a forum and argue with one another over something we have no knowledge of ourselves. This is why until the details are reveiled I'll keep away so I'm not forced to watch people argue with ignorance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTA_Johan Posted November 23, 2011 Share Posted November 23, 2011 One thing that I was think of is will Rockstar release the game before or after E3 2012 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjwilson Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 I have had a thought, maybe the 24th may thing is the date the proper marketing starts etc, however much i would love that to be the release date, im starting to think it won't be.

gmcb007 Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 You know theres a high chance that R* visited all of those locations to help them find the best choice of city to fit with their theme. They probably narrowed it down to the west coast and these selected cities. I really can't see LV, SD, LS and SF all appearing in the one game. I mean that would be a big map and so the overall detail of each city would be significantly lost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dystopia Posted December 12, 2011 Share Posted December 12, 2011 Going by the release dates of the previous major GTA's, I'd say it will be October 2012. GTA - October 1997GTA 2 - October 1999 GTA III - October 2001 GTA: VC - October 2002 GTA: SA - October 2004 GTA IV - April 2008 (originally planned for October 2007) Though I would be very very happy to be proven wrong I'm with you on that one.

And if like i said and the 'proper' marketing started in May, rockstar would still get there 6 month advertising window that they like to have.

downthrough Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 the photos taken on their "vacation" seem very interesting to me and a lot of the subjects could be considered very gta related. there are pictures of crashed cars, a cop on a motorcycle, a strip club. it looks like they go to a car show at some point as there are pictures of a bunch of exotic fast looking cars. in las vegas they even go to a gun club and there are pictures of various weapons being shown off and fired. i didnt look through all the pictures but to me a lot of the subjects within these photos could be considered very gta related. also i doubt most people go on a trip to another country with their co workers unless it is work related. seems like research for the game to me.

20cent Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I still don't see how the "2405 " theory can work...in my mind I don't see R* using that as a hint to the release date....I instead see a potential for the player to purchase a house and have an actual listed address in the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doublepulse Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Hmm I don't know how well this proves it, but I did some math. GTA IV was released on 4/29/08 Speculated date for GTA V is 5/24/2012 If this is true.. The difference between those dates is 4 years 25 days Reverse 425 and you get 524, does that say anything?

My... My god. GET THE PRESIDENT THE PRESIDENT IS DEAD. Dunno, I wanna believe all of this 2405, but if that's true, they only have 4 months to complete beta testing and market the game, if it's not already been debugged. It was announced earlier this year that Sam finished the script for it, so I can't see it being TOO far into production... but you never know. Especially with Rockstar.

Doublepulse Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 (edited) Hey guys, i know what LJK stands for: Lol JoKing Har har har.. It would actually be "Lol Just Kidding" But yea this theory is an interesting one, Cannot be proven true or false at this moment. I tried to see if there was a similar pattern with the other games they released, but that is a ton of work. I only figured the one I posted, because they seem to share similar numbers.

LotusRIP Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Why is everybody saying this is a good find? When firstly, each and every 2405 clue suggested here has been circulating the forums since trailer release. the only 'find' is the LJK reference to the VGA awards date, which now we all know, meant absolutely nothing...

On the other hand, DAN Houser's birthdate is stated to be May 24, 1974 2405 is the Dan's birthdate, 1972 Sam's birthyear.. Wait .. now I'm confused..

GTA_fear Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 - "8 par 3" sing in the trailer: 8*3 - 24, 8-3 - 5 = 24th May 8+3 = 11 8/3 = 2.666666666666667 ^That doesn't make sense, does it? But I still think it's not a coincidence. If not a release date, it's at least an inside joke like someone already said. I'm holding my breath on this one.
