urbanfire Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 San andreas and vice city were basically dlc but they were only brought out on discs because well there wasn't any other way back then. So we could probably expect another 2 titles maybe after GTA V pretty soon hmm... wise words of a crackhead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iFight Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Maybe they made a mistake showing trailer #1 earlier, past is past anyways we're close for the release. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theNGclan Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 It's plausible they were working on V while they worked on the DLC. The DLC probably holds beta V information (IE Parachute, Buzzard, ect.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hvitdverg Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I did post this already in a thread earlier, but the posters that Rockstar released last year, has 2008-2013 written on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woozie92 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I think they started even before gta4 was released and probably they are already working on gta6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Official General Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I'd say a couple months after IV was released they started to get it properly started but it would be part time. Probably just travelling to LA to check it out and take photos/videos. Once they got back they'd create the map then start writing the story and creating the characters. It would be slow up until late 2009/early 2010 after the DLC came out. That's probably when they went into full development but didn't announce it officially until October 2011. At that point it will have been in development for ~3 years. It has been officially in full development for ~18 months now. I'd say, in total, it's been in development for ~4 years 4 months up until today and will probably go gold in August so altogether will be about 4 years 8 months. That's just a guess but it could easily be in development for over 5 years by the time August rolls around. Nobody knows except Rockstar but I'd say it will be AT LEAST 4 and a half years total to develop it. Wrong. The story was written FIRST it's always first, then they go and take thousands of reference photos then create the map. Anyway, I believe they started May 2009 because that was when evidence started appearing that Rockstar were in L.A. taking photos. There was a thread on here way back discussing it. @ AussieThunder You are correct Rockstar started development of GTA V in 2009, because Dan Houser said so himself in an interview back in October 2009. At that time, he stated that they had just begun writing the script and gathering ideas for the protagonists and main characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zombie elvis Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 It's plausible they were working on V while they worked on the DLC. The DLC probably holds beta V information (IE Parachute, Buzzard, ect.) They will have been. The guys who code mission scripts will have been working on DLC while the map was still being put together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
