AlienWillHeMonsta Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Four years in development, we need a release date not another trailer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrazzyDJ Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Given the time it has taken for them to develop the game, I'm starting to doubt the March 2013 release of the game. An October 2013 release seems more plausible since it would give Rockstar at least a whole year to promote GTA V (with GTA V being their sole focus) They might as well resume the promotions this October and carry it on through the whole of next year. March just seems to soon for the game to come out given the relatively low-key promotions of late !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theworldfamous Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I've been saying for a while we could expect something final weeks of september. Since Borderlands 2 is coming out I'm willing to believe they'll keep quiet the coming week and we'll see a trailer and/or site update last week of september. Maybe even a release date.

Raynos Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Just to keep it on record. I say; Nothing this week, No trailer 2, slight chance of next week but if I were to bet, it'll be early October. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonjack Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 You really think there is going to be a new trailer? like "Soon" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Justice Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Rockstar usually announce coutdowns to their trailers or is this not always the case? The first GTA V trailer had a one week countdown and the first GTA IV trailer had a one month countdown if I'm not mistaken. Maybe the countdown of the second GTA V trailer will start next week?[/color] Only the first trailer of IV had a countdown, the rest were announced ahead of time, but there was no ticking numbers. Essentially, it was: "A new trailer will be released on Nov. 2nd" or something along those lines. Either this coming week or the next, I expect an announcement along these lines that will also reveal the box-art and release date with the possibility of a plot synopsis as well.

goh13 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I think we will get it before 2nd of November. When will we get it? I do not know but even R* won’t let a FULL year pass without any trailers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivor1977 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 No. On the 1 year anniversary of the GTAV trailer, we will get a video of a R* dev being interviewed. He will try and justify their reasons for releasing a trailer for a next next generation game 3 YEARS early and always intended to release Sept 2014 on PS4 EXCLUSIVE! Riots will break out in all major cities around the world which will kickstart a revolution against the world managers, and the planet will be turned into one huge music festival with whores & wine flowing through the streets. R* will be so drunk they eventually give in and allow Xbox the chance to have the game. GTAV is released Sept 2014 and they all live happily ever after!

MosquitoSmasher Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 More screenshots? Yes very very likely Don't you think we have enough screenshots?... It's not about what i think, it's what Rockstar themselves said. Clearly talking about more screenshots to see. I don't know the way they stated "More to see in a few weeks" it can honestly go both ways (trailer or screen shot .. or both) but you got a point 'Some more to see' The some says it all. They talked about the screenshot week and then added...we'll be back with some more to see. That says screenshots to me and nothing else But we'll see. I agree that people shouldn't look forward to the upcoming week. Friday is Borderlands 2's release (well in Europe it is..US probably a day or two earlier?) They don't want GTA V screenshots or a trailer announcement steal the shine from Borderlands 2. Then again, everybody who really wants the game, has probably pre-ordered it already. But for the folks on the fence.... I find it much more plausible that they release a few new screenshots in the last week of this month, then some more silence for a few days into October and people going 'aw jeez..more waiting?' and then Rockstar announces countdown to second trailer with hopefully a release date. All this sounds MUCH more plausible to me. I don't see anything happening for GTA V next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All this sounds MUCH more plausible to me. I don't see anything happening for GTA V next week. sorry to say but I got the exact opposite idea from that statement. "Some more to see" is a kind of awkward sentence. If it would refer to screenshots, why not just say that? "We'll be back with some more screenshots in a few weeks or so." You wouldn't normally add the 'to see' in there, it's not wrong but just awkward. And you can bet these statements are thoroughly prepared and proof-read before they go out. So that's why I think it may be hinting at something other than screenshots. Not saying that this is the case, mind you. Just that there's more ways to interpret it.

europeanbob Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I don't think anything will happen this week, but I do think things will happen before the next quarterly earnings report: if the game is going to land in one of the next three quarters (which, I would hope is true!) the next report will tell us exactly which one. (see discussion on previous topics for why). I suspect R* won't want a rough release date to be released in that way (e.g. "GTAV definitely out between Jan - March '13!"), I think they would want to control that announcement - which means they'd have to spill the beans before 7th Oct (I think that's the date of the next call?) I don't hold out much hope for the game coming out this year at this stage, but I do think we'll get a release date in the next couple of weeks. And I can't imagine a release date without further information, so my hunch would be trailer 2 with release date tacked on the end. If I was going to guess a date for when, I would say 27th of this month. Of course, that is subject to the game not having slipped. A lot of people have made a lot out of T2's income forecasts: yes, they have predicted big things for FY13, but that could easily get restated. If the game has slipped into next summer, there is much less pressure for them to release anything before the next earnings call. If there's literally nothing new between now and then, I would take that as a pretty bad sign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure either but I think the next conference call is on November 8th. If Rockstar don't announce a release date or if we don't have at least a second trailer then I expect bad news. Of course, that is subject to the game not having slipped. A lot of people have made a lot out of T2's income forecasts: yes, they have predicted big things for FY13, but that could easily get restated. If the game has slipped into next summer, there is much less pressure for them to release anything before the next earnings call. If there's literally nothing new between now and then, I would take that as a pretty bad sign. This is probably one of the reasons why Rockstar decided to don't announce the release date of GTA V. Most games this console generation from Rockstar were delayed. Most of the games had a release date announcement way before the release so for example GTA IV was announced 17 months before the release date but then it was delayed by 6 months. In the end it took 23 months between the announcement and the release of GTA V. Rockstar (and TakeTwo) want to avoid exactly this. I think we get a release date announcement when it's nealy impossible to delay the game because the development/bugs&glitches-fixing is done. If they won't release anything till the end of the month, they are f*cking douchebags Why douchebags? They are always vague (except if it comes to Max Payne 3 ).

darkbart Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I've given up on any new info on V. I was in GAME yesterday and there's games coming out like next February and they are on the shelves as pre order now with box art and everything. Given the amount of info we have so far on V and some folks saying a christmas release or a 2012 release, I dont think its gonna happen. Going off the info we have so far I'd say the game is still work in progress with a lot yet to do. Either that or they got technical probs with it. I bought Sleeping Dogs yesterday and going to give up chasing V for now..... I think there's a looong wait yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they promised something in this time (yeah yeah, I know "or so" is the keyword here and can mean ages), they should give it. We finished 3rd week and still got nothing, but it doesn't mean yet that we won't have anything in September. If we will - good. If we won't - DOUCHES!

JaggySnake Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Title should read: "Will there be a new trailer sometime this week?" You don't know what Rockstar are gonna do.

Patrizio Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 We have had so, so many false dawns (self inflicted I admit) that, as negativity has taken over, I can't even fathom a new trailer - particularly as traditionally by Trailer 2 we know a bit about the character and their backstory, which we of course do not currently. I can't see Trailer 2 coming out without a magazine preview first. I hope I'm wrong of course, but the pessimist in me feels we won't see Trailer 2 until late Oct/early Nov like Trailer 1. I have to say, a countdown for even a month away will suffice at the moment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo92boi Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 I have a feeling something is gonna happen either tomorrow at 12, or Tuesday at 3. If not more wait... That 17th date is the only thing I have to base this off of. All I KNOW is that this month will not end without GTA V being talked about BY ROCKSTAR. They will have to open their mouths eventually sometime this month. When they said "a few weeks or so" that meant this month, because then they would have said "in the coming month" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebig Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Hmm, I think this week could be the 'in a few weeks or so' period. I think all of us hope for it, but I wouldn't mind if not. September has gone really fast so far for me. And I think they can't wait untill November with new information, so it will come really fast.

It is, but their bullsh*t is based on reasoning: R* said they'd show us more in a "few weeks or so". 17th September is a few weeks after that statement.

wwinterj Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Rockstar Games & 2K Games are take-two labels so you are not going to release a new trailer for gta v when 2k are about to release Borderlands 2 you don't want a bit of the attention going to a different game Forgot all about Borderlands 2. Shows how much I'm interested. You're correct though. It's in TakeTwos best interest to have all the attention on Borderlands 2 so I don't expect anything this week. I'll stick with the last week in September for more screens and the last week in October for trailer 2. Considering the last screens were posted during the last full week of August.
