So when are these "Heists" and DLCs supposed to come?

"And get ready for continuing free content Updates for Grand Theft Auto Online, including the highly-anticipated launch of Online Heists (which, to be absolutely clear, will be available for all four consoles to enjoy)." - Rockstar, 3 and a half weeks ago

 

Here we are two weeks before Christmas and we still haven't heard anything about Heists, more free DLCs, nor the SP DLC pack. When do you think they'll come and why do you think Rockstar is playing the silent game again?

 

Do you think they're building something amazing or just trying to spark up hype with this wait?

Soon!

 

 

With Rockstar Games you never know. They always say soon. Can be a week, can be multiple years. Can be forever.

Although I'm pretty sure we will see the heists this time within a few months.

I think it'll coincide with the PC release, or shortly after. A couple of weeks, etc.

 

And I'm thinking it's going to be on par with, or maybe a little smaller, than one of the IV episodes.

 

Personally I'd like to see a pre-story DLC, a post-story DLC and something weird, like Undead Nightmare.

 

Pre-story would be each of the characters prior to V's events, so no switching. Post would be after story but with switching available. Weird - f*ck knows!

 

Though really, Michael's retirement period where he's believed dead would be pretty f*cking dull. Franklin's gang stuff could be interesting, but we've all been there before... Trevor... I couldn't give a f*ck about Trevor really, but I'm sure his dealings with the lost could be interesting - perhaps people might enjoy seeing a pre-brain-stomp Johnny, even though they know the eventual outcome...

 

There's so much scope, and that means big design, potentially big content. Which takes a lot of time. The first DLC was probably in production before V released on LG. So yeah, I expect early next year, maybe Feb-May sort of time.

Signatures are dumb anyway.

Rockstar is known to be very silent when it comes to projects or updates, such as heists, and info regarding the future of GTA Online.

 

That being said, I think that heists are on their way, now that the NG versions of GTAO have been released. It's something people have been anticipating for over a year and a half now, there's no reason why Rockstar would delay them any longer.

The heists should have been here already but the SP DLC they probably want to make sure it doesn't end up like the DLC for IV. AS great as it was it was a commercial failure and I am sure they don't want that to happen again.

I hope SP DLC is post-story. I'll explain later.

Tease.

 

I think it would be great to see either side, chronologically, simply because we've seen the three together already.

 

If it is post-story, at least we'll finally know what's canon and what's not (Clue, it's C).

then they better annouce something soon then, the longer they wait the more of a failure it will end up. im already losing interest in V

Prequel's are a possibility, they talk a lot about things in the past, almost too much, there's a lot to Trevor and Michael's past, Franklin in a gang, selling weed, shooting the mauve guys.

 

Post story DLC makes sense too, i'd think the special and DLC vehicles would still be in the game, there's a thing with Tracey which wasn't tied up, her being a star and having a stalker, Michael thinks it's her fame or shame thing, but she calls herself candy suxx, she's doing porn :p

 

Imagine if you let the stalker go, in DLC he kills tracey :O

 

There's also the heist crews skills going up on the final heist, it seems pointless if we won't be using them again. Could be very wrong though lol

Didn't R* said we would get heists a couple weeks after V online released aka more than a year ago? Lol

I think they said they'd come in spring, but they're most likely quite complex, they need to be tested and balanced, if they're too short they're an easy way of making money, they said there's 40 different ones too :O

Yeah, I got my team pretty well leveled now - but, annoyingly, Packie has never appeared for me. I took him to the Altruists in earlier playthroughs but this time I thought I'd use him. Just about to take the big score and I still haven't seen him spawn once.

 

But yeah, it's fairly obvious that leveling was going to be helping out on whatever came next.

As Eden games once said about their release of further DLC.

 

'it's almost out of the door'

 

Anytime between now and GTAVI is my bet

This is what pisses me off. This isn't "very soon" it's 3.5 weeks.

I know what you mean, Agent has been ''coming soon'' since 2009.

That's still not as long as Duke Nukem Forever, and that eventually arrived. I mean, sure, it was utter sh*t, but it arrived.

 

Don't forget, there's a difference between an update and a DLC, so 'the first update after CG release' could be really badly worded.

How is it taking these morons more than a year and a half to make a simple game-mode for their game??? At this rate GTA VI will be done by 2025 best case scenario.

I really hope there will be more Franklin and Lamar missions in the future, they're too funny.

Anyways, I f*cking pre-ordered Agent like 5 years ago or something lmao. Well I'm still waiting Rockstar, my console is ready.

Write the code, test the code, generate the assets, implement the assets, write the dialogue, record the voices, record the mocap, test it again, fix the bugs, test it again, fix the bugs, test it again, fix the bugs, test it again... until it's ready.

 

Yeah, this sh*t just happens over night, amiright?

It's pretty apparent they've been holding them until Next Gen release and the constant 'Heists will come' was to drum up hype and buzz without actually promising it'd come out. (Minus the 'Heists will come this spring' thing.)

Soon doesn't mean next week, or anything specific, though. It just means... not now.

 

Patience is a virtue, though around here's it's a dirty word. How about everyone just... wait... and be good and patient and nice and not be so demanding and dramatic and entitled?

patience is virtue, but you gotta admit over a year is ridiculous. they could've saved all the complaining by not using the word soon, it gets peoples hopes up.

Why would they record voices or use mocap? We have pre-existing animations for almost everything and our characters don't even have voices... These aren't just some low level game developers that don't know what they're doing. It's a team of many skilled developers that are familiar with the same software that have been used by them for the last 7+ years... And it took them a complete 5+ years to get the game out of the door, but they can't get one single feature correct a year later? The sh*t is ridiculous...And they shouldn't have announced that heists were coming soon if they wouldn't be available a year+ after release... They have had delay after delay and still don't have anything to show for it. I'm not hyped for them at all and wish they never would've announced them in the first place, but it is what it is now... From now on everyone knows that when rockstar says something is coming soon, we can expect it to take over a year to release.

 

It's very hard to be patient after being patient for over a year... You can only hold people off for so long before they start getting upset...
