EvilFuture Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 (edited) I was just looking through my Youtube inbox when I seen some old messages between me and Youtube user "DaShiznitGames." Our messages were about info about GTA V that he claimed was "exclusive" to him. I don't know if he just so happened to get all this stuff right, or if he was being legit. Note, that this info was given to me before the first round of previews came out. Here's what he told me. -There is 3 protags, one of them is 42 years old and has an ex wife and 2 kids. (ex wife?) -Los Santos is the only large city, smaller towns round out the countrtyside. -Grove Street makes a return, however none of the 3 era characters are in the game. -Money plays a large part in the game. -Property buying is back. -The only customization for the 3 characters are hair, clothes, and facial hair -A few characters from GTA IV return -Car and weapon customization is back -New mini games include golf, tennis and surfing (surfing?) -I played a mission called "Alimony" -Multiplayer mode "Heist Hold" -New Sports car "Lantern." -Game will be out on May 14th, 2013. I am honestly in shock right now, I had forgot I even had this message because I labeled it off as bullsh*t.

LolBurn Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 IIRC the game did initially get leaked. The game was supposed to be announced for 2012 but was delayed until Spring 2013 because they had to change Franklin's original name (Forgot what it was.. Albert? Nah not albert.. something else) to Franklin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skorge Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Yep as my thing says under my black R* logo, Michael was originally named < and that and a whole load of info that has been proven right since has been confirmed true. And at the time every one was calling it fake, IMO this forum has the worst untrusting people ever, when R* post a new screen you still have people screaming "its fake!

Ex Hellraiser Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 (edited) There was some dude over a year ago that correctly 'guessed' the names Franklin and Trevor as protags. Don't remember where, but someone has brought it up on the forums before. EDIT: And I think that Albert De Silva was true. Either that was the real original name, and was leaked too much, so they changed it (requiring delays and redoing a lot of sh*t), or that is STILL his real name, under that witness protection thing, and might be revealed later in the game.

Nebby Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 This would have been quite useful information seven months ago. Nonetheless, thanks for sharing. You should contact the guy back and see if he knows anything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spider-Vice Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 As scary as this sounds I think Alimony has been mentioned by a preview, pretty odd. Rockstar also said the game was supposed to be released in May albeit indirectly, hmm.

greenrock Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 i think the whole "no property" in the game informer reveal was just a lie to be honest... i dont think it was just added in the delay why they would lie about that, i have no idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilFuture Posted July 9, 2013 Author Share Posted July 9, 2013 i think the whole "no property" in the game informer reveal was just a lie to be honest... i dont think it was just added in the delay Maybe R* told them to tell us all it wasn't in so they could surprise us later on down the road with the second round of previews?

Well, they didn't delayed the game for nothing, honestely I'd think they did add a good number of new features due the delay + bugs and all that sh*t. And by the way, R* stated that they delayed the game for extra development to make the game better than it was if it was released in May. How? With adding new features and stuff of course.

Brazilian Mermaid Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 For me that screenshot doesn't prove nothing. It's easy to photoshop that. The reason I tell you this is because in my point of view the property buying was not coming back until R* read the negative responses about it and other complaints and decided to delay the game's release date so they could include some interesting stuff, including propeties that you can buy. But yes, there is a chance that isn't fake at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
