More about GTA:V starting in a few months

Months to wait for more info. We've been waiting years for V info, and now they are saying Months to wait for more info.

 

Please say they are Joking, tell me that this isn't happening

Look at it this way: you've got much less time to wait than years you've already waited. This is the final stretch!

IV is dead as nobody goes on it anymore and the only games that are avaliable is the dreadful and boring CoD series which should have died after CoD 3 and many more which i'm not interested in (my p.o.v). But as we have to wait again, then i might just go on UC3, any of the old GTA's or Forza 4 or buy new games

Im happy about this, it makes the wait for new info less of a pain, in the next few months is May-June time so just after MP3 is out so my guess is early to mid June or early to mid may, this way it will either boost the knowledge of MP3 just before or just after its release from people checking rockstargames.com and if it reveals a release date at the same time for October then it wont affect the sales of MP3 in a negative way.

This is why people are hacked off with MP.....

 

On another note, if V really is the largest to date, why the chuff could they not split the map up??

Why would you want them to split the map up like they've been doing for years? I'd rather they actually give us the whole city of Los Angeles from the start, and instead we actually have to unlock the countryside this time.

Simply because it serves to make some variety, and a sense of actually traveling somewhere different. Looking at Southern California, its basically a big flat lump of map. Countryside may add some variety, but its smoke and mirrors really. If they hadnt chosen to try and do this real world again, they would have freedom to make the best of whats worked before.

 

EDIT: I should actually add, I mean physically split it up, not block sections off. e.g like SA had SF, LV etc.

My wall after reading this announcement:

You have a lift in your room? Fancy.

 

OT: "expect that we'll be talking much more about GTAV starting at some point in a few months' time". That sounds smashing to me. I wasn't expecting anything huge till after MP3 is released, so the confirmation is just reassuring. Also, if you notice the wording, "talking much more... starting at some point" implies we'll be getting a full-steam-ahead marketing schedule kicking in after MP3's release. If we're lucky, we might get a few screenshots or some scraps of info before then.

Well folks, if it is a few months from now that would put it around April sometime for GTA V info/trailer. If R* hold true and then April will most likley be it! May is round 3 months, so I think April. April 18th to be exactly when we will hear or see info on GTA V! Why this date?

 

Because of distance on Hole 8, Par 3 golfcourse board! It reads 169 Yards! If from the Tee to Pin is 169 yds, which is a distance, then I was thinking that maybe 169 yards is actually days until trailer/info date for GTA V info? I added 169 days to 11/02/11, the launch day of the trailer, an got 04/18/2012, which is a Wednesday? Just a thought, mostly likely it means nothing. Sorry for the big picture..........

Why is there a circled part?

 

OT. AAAAGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH. FFS ROCKSTAR. Why cant they just tell us a small thing, like the map size or the protag. Something to keep us going.

 

They dont realise they are drawing interest away from Gta V to attract it to MP3 when clearly they would make more if they only sold Gta V and provided monthly info, instead of more of MP3 and 2 sentences every 6 months on Gta V. Its not as beneficial as they think. All it does is increase people asking/sending them questions, that result in wasting time to repeatedly reply to and read. Some marketing scheme!!

 

Sorry im just really p*ssed off atm with R*, as most people are.

lol, I just looked up the definition of "few." It typically means 3. More than 1, but less than 5. So yeah, about 3 months from now MP3 releases... so my money is on that now. Or E3 on June 5-7, which is soon after MP3 releases. Whose to say we won't get info after MP3 releases, and a trailer at E3?

if the next trailer doesn't blow me away, they're losing my vote, its looking like GTA IV.5, i refuse to wait this long for basically the same game with a bit of grass around the edges.

How the f*ck is RDR the real reason behind GTA V delay!!! (which isnt even delayed).

Simple. With Red Deer Retarded cancelled somewhere in 2004-2007 we'd have the whole free studio (after MCLA release) which could:

1. Make Agent so North wouldn't spend resources on this.

2. Help LA Noire.

3. Help Max Payne 3.

We'd have: LAN - 2010, MP3 - 2010-2011, GTA V - 2011-2012.

The whole year earlier. Now tell me it's not delay.

Yeah, imagine if the GTA 4 DLC's, LA Noire and Max Payne 3 were cancelled, we'd already have GTA V by now! sarcasm.gif

You didn't get it? R* was confident in all these titles. R* believed they'd be great and successful. And they are.

But R* never truly believed in RDR. They were sure it's be flop. True fact - came from various 2009-2010 articles.

I'm a bit confused by what they said toady, and they almost seem to contradict their own announcement.

 

Does the game take place in a re-imagined, present day Southern California or does it take place in the city of Los Santos and surrounding hills, countryside and beaches?

I need clarification between the two.

 

I understand it will be the largest and most ambitious open world game they've ever created, but damn, this is nuts.

Well, GTAV.net updated. That's always a good thing. lol.gificon14.gif

 

So if they are going to start marketing Grand Theft Auto V in May, do you think this would hurt it's chances of releasing in October?

But it ended up being something of a hit. 13 million sales.

You know, you've actually re-fueled my confidence. Once the sorrow and sadness of winter ends, the happiness and joy of Spring shall come. Soon, the sun will rise, the birds will return, the flowers will bloom. Kids will be out of school. I know this summer will be jam-packed with V info.

 

Seriously, that cheers me up a little more.

I'm guessing that we'll get a GTA V website update with a few screenshots and maybe minor pieces of info, but until May, we won't get any big stuff.

I'm sorry but you're blinded by the fact that the game hasn't been released for PC, there's no talking sense into you. Red Dead Redemption sold brilliantly.

I dont think we will even get a whisper of V until early June. R* seem content to avoid V talk like the plague, so I guess that will continue till MP3 has done a few weeks on the shelves.

The way they announced the trailer makes me confident that they could easily pull off a short advertising campaign if they wanted to. I don't think it'll start in May, but a July-September campaign followed by a October release could be enough for a game like V. Whether they'll actually do that depends on things we don't know yet (e.g. how finished the game is or whether they've already decided on a 2013 release).

 

@SGT. Johnson: April is in Spring.

idk, I kinda doubt it to be honest. I'm pretty sure they want to keep up the hype train for MP3 until it releases, and then once it does, we will get some more info. I am now a believer in their strategy here. They are piggy-backing off of GTA's success to promote MP3. It's pretty clever if you think about it.

 

My guess? New screenshots and info near the end of May, trailer at E3 in June. ph34r.gif

“Hey R* is there gonna be something more about L.A. Noire?” - Dezpoztomuz

 

While there won’t be any more DLC or additional content for the current release of L.A. Noire (we’re all too busy working on Max Payne 3, GTAV and other games to come), don’t count out the possibility of a new game in the L.A. Noire franchise in the future. ...

Well atlest R* answerd the burning question on when we will get more info. Now all we have to do is wait a few months longer...

Okay, can this put a stop to the Las Venturas and San Fierro people now? They were asked about it and they said Los Santos.

BUT THEY DIDN'T SAY NOT LAS VENTURAS AND SAN FIERRO THEREFORE IT'S CONFIRMED THEY WILL BE IN THE GAME

(obviously kidding)

 

Either way, it's sort of sad we won't hear anything for a few more months but it's better to know this and not get our hopes up for information anytime sooner.

It's official for me, R* are dropping the ball here, big time. Big fat middlefinger to them. What the f*ck are they doing? Releasing a trailer all of a sudden, then decide to just keep quite about this game? What the f*ck kinda strategy is that??? Do they think we're all little kids or idiots? Showing us some footage of their precious little Grand Theft Auto 5 would keep us juiced for 6 months after trailer release??? F*ck 'em, seriously. This is not professional at all. This is a random approach to start a GTA V campaign without any thought or consideration. F*cking losers GET YOUR GAMES FINISHED WITHIN THE DEADLINE FOR ONCE YOU F*CKING BUMS. Jesus. RANT OVER, Johnny Playert OUT!!

Well any future Noire games will be done by R* 100% since Team Bondi obviously met its demise shortly after the game's release. I would expect them to give it another crack at some point in the future (crosses fingers for Detroit Noire).

At least they told us SOMETHING! But seriously, it's like they're telling us "Hey, you've been waiting for new info for three and a half months already, just wait a few more months and we'll start talking about V". I'm not one of those guys who are impatient but maybe they made a mistake by releasing the trailer in November, don't you think? They should have announced the game in January and the trailer a week or two after the announcement. But hey, nothing we can do about it.

 

So we didn't get any new information about GTA5 today but we got the following details confirmed:

* No new GTA5 information in February or March. POSSIBLY in April but don't expect huge details until after the release of Max Payne 3. Maybe they'll give us a release date and the platforms in April but most likely we won't get any new details about the game until late May/early June.

* Once again, Rockstar confirms it's Los Santos and surrounding countryside. Do not expect Las Venturas and San Fierro. If your expectations are high you will only get disappointed when the game is released. I just can't see why some people still believe Las Venturas and San Fierro will be in this game.

* ...and it will be the largest and most ambitious open world game we’ve ever created… We knew from the official statement and the interview with Dan Houser that GTA5 will have a big map. But when I read that sentence above it seriously makes me think that GTA5 will be extremely big. The largest open game world we've ever created... OH MAN! Imagine GTA5 being at least three times the size of San Andreas!
