The GTA V Story Mode DLC Speculation Thread

[MrGTA1985]

 

 

GTA V is sale on the EU PS Store. Do you smell the Story Mode DLC ?

When it gets a price drop, then you can begin to wonder.

 

I'm not 100% sold on an expansion, but all logic and signs point to something. Regardless, though, if it is going to come it won't happen until after the first actual price drop on current gen's version.

 

I suspect it'll come in the form of a whole new game, GTA V: New City Name. It will sell for $50-60, include a hook for one or more of the current protags, and probably include a set of three interlocking stories.

 

GTAO expands to the new city only if you own the expansion. In other words, no expansion and you're stuck in LS.

Exactly, Just like RDR undead nightmare. It was classified as a new game sort to speak. This spdlc is going to break the mode. People cannot only look at GTA4 dlc when you think of "past dlc". Look @ every game after 4, the engine improved, so did the dlc's quality. A price drop on current Gen? Nope, not yet. Probably around summer tho. Edited February 15, 2016 by MrGTA1985

I swear to god I heard that exact same phrase before... in this exact same forum.

[Irrational]

 

 

Today GTAV is still Number 1 Top Seller in Steam... no news soon until this not change.

Honestly, it makes me wonder - who still buys GTA 5? My real question is, who doesn't own a copy at this point.

 

most likely 3rd world peopleWell, excuse me.

[Osho]

I was playing on my friends copy all this while, and was patiently looking at what the modding community was trying to bring the best out of this game, and at the end of 2015, it looked very interesting, prompt me to finally buy, got it this Jan on Steam.

Loving the mods!

But I love to be more immersed in more crime related activities which the mods haven't fully satisfied me, and have to rely on the damn online for it. Now if only R* could get the SP DLC with the casino and interesting other crime stuff then it'll become a complete experience, in all respects.

I know you won't like hearing this from me, but from my opinion, you should try modding GTA IV with realistic driving and LCPDFR mods and native trainer and ICEnhancer. It really makes it top-freakin-notch, and it is one of the reasons I want to save up for a powerful PC.

Well actually Ned Luke did say the team was doing some kind of tour or something. But idk.. lets see wat goes down.

 

Oh yeah, that's right. I remember when he was asked about SP dlc he said something like "I know nothing about that, but I would love something like that!" and then he instantly started talking about the tour again. He blamed it on saying the voice actors hasn't had the time to meet their fans.

 

After two years.

 

It sure smells fishy, my guess is that since Ned has signed a contract stating he can't say anything about anything he has to divert people. I mean why would you do a tour two years after the release? If this wasn't GTA no one would've cared at all, unless they have something to promote...

 

*cough* SP DLC *cough*

[jatiger13]

.I personally think The quality of the spdlc is what will shake the world.

I just want to reflect on something The Benz said a while back,during a interview @ rockstar north studios.

"Weve got about 45 years worth of ideas we want to do, The Benz laughs. We dont know what GTA VI will be, but weve got some ideas. GTA Online is the focus right now. There aint no rest between finishing V and then Online. Plus we have some "other things stuff, DLC," I dont know how to describe it exactly that wed like to do, and well pick the right ones".

 

There seems little doubt that, when the team get ready to storm the stage again, history will repeat itself.

 

LB most likely wasn't going to give away the goods, but even by his statement it's sounds like a Expansion Or something big.

Well, actually, "something big" is only what you seem to get from that quote. If it's something big, you don't call it "other things" or "stuff".

 

btw, you mentioned a "strategy" earlier. There was another guy who did the same thing, but it was debunked. Specially because Take2 don't interfere much with R*, if at all. I believe Zelnick himself said that a while back.

 

I think the guy who talked about a strategy was called GtaoJackbroker or something like that. He didn't take well to criticism, even when proven wrong. He was pretty annoying and frankly seemed a bit thick. He got banned tho lol ;p

 

 

. I mean why would you do a tour two years after the release? If this wasn't GTA no one would've cared at all, unless they have something to promote...

 

 

Well, it's a billion dollar franchise. They don't need to promote anything just because they are going out to conferences. Other billion dollar franchises do the same thing, even past the 2 year mark. Edited February 15, 2016 by jatiger13

The unfortunate downside is that V delivers a great experience than IV but its split between two modes, and this is used as the basis for accusations.

Had there been no Online, and a lot of what it currently offers was taken into account for the single player then it would have easily turned out to be the best experience in the series. I do feel disappointed myself to see single player still lacking as much as it lacked in IV.

 

 

 

 

This is 100% accurate. As you put it, V delivers an excellent and robust SP experience, but it is still split between two modes.

 

 

Yup. It could be that Rockstar wants to postpone it till many last gen players have shifted to current gen for them to not only sell the DLC at a higher price point that makes it successful but also avoid any outrage from the last gen players for missing out the DLC.

 

I have a very "wait and see" attitude about possible DLC. I am in a place where I can completely accept if Rockstar never launches it, and I will be very happy if they do launch it "better late than never."

I added a few of the more innocuous mods to my shiny, new PC version:

 

-Script Hook V is a must for other mods

-Native Trainer (that is a lot of fun, I have to say!)

-On-foot/bicycle Radio - another must for me!

-Nice Speedometer mod.

-Reveal Entire Map Mod

 

I noticed that a lot of the mods seem to be connected to the Native Trainer and Script Hook V, which is kind of cool.

 

The driving I am NOT going anywhere near as I think this game already has amazing driving.

 

What are LCPDFR and ICDEnancer?

LCPDFR is a mod that let's you play as the police, stands for Liberty City Police Department First Response.

ICEnhancer makes the game look better.

But why the long wait then? I can understand that the voice actors have lives outside the recording studio (I mean just look at Steven Ogg's facebook, the guy is lovely.) But did they really have to wait two years? Maybe they had to record more lines and do more motion capture for...SP dlc? I'm over exaggerating obviously but who really knows? Then again I don't have any idea what the voice actors have been up to during these two years...

 

Let's just hope we'll get something, this silence is nerve wrecking!

[John The Grudge]

They can make as much releasing a few GTAO exclusive cars as they can by releasing SPDLC. It'll probably never happen for that reason.

[gtaguy95]

Sp dlc hype

[DangerZ0neX]

They can make as much releasing a few GTAO exclusive cars as they can by releasing SPDLC. It'll probably never happen for that reason.

You see the new cars lately? Most of them are just new skins with different values stuck to them, even though a lot of them have different stylings here and there and have a lot of modifications.

 

If all it takes is reworking existing car models into making extreme profits out of them then it really cements it, the DLC most likely won't happen because the profit-vs-cost ratio for one is much less than Online.

 

Hell, they weren't included in Singleplayer either, might as well make GTA VI an online game strictly.

If you think companies don't use marketing strategies this conversation is silly. You seem to be a skeptic about it all, But what do you expect lol. A company having a strategy to release games & spdlc is absurd?? All companies use marketing strategies. Smh. Google Strauss Zelnick Strategy and READ. Then you tell me.

*cough* SP DLC *cough*

There is a whole bunch of new fans since the pc release. I'm not sure if they did anything like that when it was released on pc.

[MrGTA1985]

Strauss zelnick: "I think the biggest distinction between us and some of our competitors is we dont annualize our non-sports titles, and thats for a couple reasons. One is we want to have the highest quality in the business and that takes time, and two, we like to rest our IP in between releases because we believe thats what keeps it fresh and permanent. We dont want to burn off our franchises. Its an unusual strategy, I think we stand alone with that strategy, but its really paying off".

if you ask me. We kno r*, quality games take time! Even a SP DLC takes time. So to me it seems the plan was release GTAV on every console each year,which provides time to create or finish up the development of the spdlc and probably whatever comes after GTAV. PC just got GTAV last year, let's see what happens

[CaptainBicycle]

@ GtaoJackbroker- I mean, MrGTA1985

 

Strategy does not = pattern.

 

Ergo, since we don't know their strategy, we can't presume anything.

[MrGTA1985]

Omg lol strauss zelnick says it himself. It's the same strategy,they have taken since 2007. The pattern has not changed but the strategy has. The strategy they have use to release games & spdlc has created a pattern.
