[Speculation] GTAV PC cancellation & delay of next-gen/PC

I have never seen Rockstar be so direct. They really had to settle the dust there. But there's your (really unneeded) confirmation that GTA V will NOT be delayed.

...this was confirmed like.. a week ago. Yet a lot of people on these forums kept freaking out.

 

There's no reason to delay and there's definitely no way in hell it would be canceled. The question is what month are we getting this freakin game already. I hope it's october.. not looking forward to waiting till Christmas for a game I already own on PS3.

These forums and most of the Internet is a living proof of how easy people are to manipulate like puppets.

They say the game is coming in the fall, people don't get any news even if we're still out of that time frame and they start to speculate about a delay, and with all the impatient some brainless idiots create a story about the PC version being canceled and all the idiots grab the bait even when without any proof, no facts, no sense or hints about something absurd like that to happen.

 

So, people actually believe that Rockstar has been developing the game and optimizing it for the PC since 2011 at least, wasting millions in resources, merging two divisions exactly because of that and paying them only to do that (Rocsktar Vancouver + Rockstar Toronto = Rockstar Toronto) and they decide "Ah screw it, let's forget all the resources and time we've wasted in the past 3 years and let's just cancel it, let us ignore the biggest platform at the moment that is growing each day with a 20+ billion projections and cancel it".

Yeah that makes perfect sense, throwing a completed game into the trash for no reason at all. As for a delay as I said plenty of times it would be a financial suicide, for them and their partners. I could believe the game would get a delay if I believed it was still in development, but I know that PC and PS4 are ready since March and XBOX One most likely got completed by July or so... so right now all that is being done should just be, making some last testing and preparing the servers for the massive transfers.

Oh and btw, remember what Zelnick said... there are still 6 billion people market and he wants to reach them all, and currently there are less then 10 million CG consoles overall, so he can't cancel the PC platform and Nintendo is even smaller then CG community. He would be ignoring more then 90% of the world market. :p

Cancellation is not gonna happen.

All this panic has been fabricated through rumours that have little to no legitimacy behind them.

Can a delay happen? Maybe, but considering how Rockstar has reassured us multiple times through Twitter that the game is coming for PC and consoles means it is VERY unlikely.
Rockstar only delays their game when it doesn't reach the quality they desire.

But someone even made a YouTube video about it - must have been true!

Here's something I saw on the Rockstar Twitch chat a few minutes ago. I've cut out other peoples' random messages in the middle.

Well, Rockstar chatting with horny dogs doesn't confirm anything. That " soon " could very well mean 10 weeks in R* terms.

I.dont care if.its delayed as long as they can justify me paying another $60 for it cuz for just a graphics upgrade n a few features,thats not near enough to warrant a $60 purchase

I think it's safe to say it won't be delayed. Earlier referenced, Rockstar themselves in Twitch mentioned that it will be coming in Fall, and now Cara has revealed she's been working on an Updated Version of Non-Stop Pop to be released in the Fall, this coincides with their planned Fall release for Next-Gen. The fact they have brought her in to work on it, and it's releasing around the same time as Next Gen will be leads me to believe we will be definitely getting it this year.

 

Otherwise they wouldn't keep telling people it's coming in the Fall, and bringing people in such as Cara. I think we can expect some news and a release date anytime soon guys!

I bring grave news.

 

According to Rantic.com, the marketing company for GTA5, the release for PC might be postponed to 2015 if not even canceled completely.

Can't provide link, stupid phone.

Edit:

Seems 4chan was being at it again...

What about pre-orders for PC version on Amazon, Gamestop and even at Rockstar Warehouse? Will they return the money? I doubt it. So PC version will definitely get on release.

Good point.

These versions have been in the oven for awhile now. They weren't just started after the September release. There's a high high chance we will get info next month so let's look forward to it.

I can't really see why they would miss the christmas time. It's more than likely that the sheduled date will be followed.

By now they surely know the exact date that they want the game to be release.

Cara Delevigne, host of Non-Stop Pop, is updating the station for the new versions:

Guys, I doubt there will be a delay (let alone cancellation), she even mentioned that it's coming this Fall, just like Rockstar has been doing recently on Twitch/Twitter/etc. I imagine the radio is one of, if not the last thing that is being worked on before the game is ready for release. Logically, you think they'd want the core gameplay functioning perfectly before they put their focus on that. If they're at this stage of production, it shouldn't be that much longer.

JUST NOW on the Rockstar livestream:

One of the devs said:

 

GTA V for Next-Gen is coming in FALL 2014.

 

and yes, he actually said it, not just text in the chat.

yea great....lol

 

WHAT ABOUT PC VERSION???

I bring grave news.

I can live with it being postponed to 2015, but outright cancelled? NOOO!!!

 

I built my PC mainly for GTA IV and V.

Great, they replied to that, it means there is pressure on them to announce a release date ASAP to stop this rumour because at the moment it might hurt their sales.

Good job to whom started the cancellation rumour.

The Delay Rumour is totally FAKE....... Rockstar never announced anything on any of the social media except the announcement of GTA V on PS4, Xbox One And PC" on 9th June 2014....

Whereas it is also bullsh*t that GTA V pc could be cancelled, it will never be cz i dont trust Rantic, i dont trust Fox Weekly, I dont trust anyone but Rockstar!

It will not be cancelled cz the've already spent quite a lot of money announcing sh*t and preorders....

i dont think if its either cancelled or delayed...

I agree with MKIIIX, check the link out ... Steve C., a Rockstar Games Support Tier 1 Employee replied and said "I'm also looking forward to the PC release, however this release date has not changed. "

Rantic was taken down months ago.. its just adding to the rumour...

And one more thing check this out. - "http://www.lazygamer.net/pc-gaming/no-gta-v-hasnt-been-cancelled-on-pc/" IT SAYS IT ALL.

wait a second , is rockstar really delaying a remastred edition of a one year old game to 2015 ? gta v doesn't have a change to compete with brand new next gen games coming out in 2015 especially the witcher 3 : wild hunt and the order 1886 . now don't get me wrong gta v one of the best seller games in history and a 7 time world record breaker but it's just the same game that was released one year ago with better graphics ... so releasing it in this fall is their best choice .

While I can't guarantee, but I'm 99% sure that PC version can't be cancelled. Nope. Not happening.

There's already a Steam page and the video editor already announced.

Your opinion contradicts your belief in their greed, then. Because if Rockstar were to only care about money, they'd sh*t out the PC version in whatever pitiful state they currently have it in and leech a few sales off of the initial hype wave.

 

Luckily, the reality of their situation is a bit farther from your personal perception of it. This is because Rockstar has been working on the PC version for at least two years now, as evidenced by the leaked, on-disk build logs.

 

The cancelling of the PC version has got to be stupidest GTA V-related rumor I've heard since that one guy said Chop would be the protagonist because his Rockstar employed uncle told him so.

 

 

Yes, someone actually believed that guy. The proof is in the Thread Simulator videos :p.

Seriously...Which idiot did come up with the PC cancellation sh*t without even having something to back up such a claim? Seems like people got to much free time...

not sure if your using your brain ... why would they announce and cancel the pc version ? will you trust an ex rockstar employe ? he's a former employe why would he know stuff like this ? it's not like he was kicked out this month or something ... And he can just leak rumors so that rockstar's game won't sell well .By the way what makes you sure that it's a rockstar employe ? did you actually see the interview ? i bet the answer is no all you read was clickbaits without any proof blablabla .

Out of boredom I asked if there was PC version still in the works.

 

"We currently do not have any information regarding that. Please watch the newswire." Something along the lines of that. Heh, I love ya Rockstar
