Rockstar Newswire "New Updates Coming Soon"

[Black-Dragon96]

I already posted that on the"Next DLC Thread" but i think it fits here too.

 

Lets talk about some possible weapons for the Finance an Felony update. I do not found the stuff im talking about now myself in the gamefiles but on diffrent pages on the internet, for example the gta wiki.You know that there were some "cut" weapons found in the game files, or at least there icons. But its interesting that these weapons got updated icons with the nextgen version of the game. Why would you update something that has been cut?These weapons are the heavy rifle, the assault mg, the assault sniper and the programmable ar.I think these weapons would fit the theme of the update.

 

Btw. Im new on the forum and please excuse my horrobile english.

(And yes, i know that these information was found many month ago.)

I suppose these organizations are a start, as it's not like you can't work with crew members, but I always imagined sharing some bad ass crew mansion/headquarters ala The Godfather. There's so much you could do with something like that. Everything from pool tables to setting up defenses.

You know that's actually a good point and I never really thought about that.

 

And welcome to the forums, and trust me your English is much better than many of the native speakers here.

The unused icons from SA were also remastered for Mobile and X360 versions - never used.

The cut car from LSC, Tommy, was also remastered for Mobile - never used.

If something is remastered it doesn't mean that we will get that.

Yeah you are right. But there is also stuff that did not got new icons or even an oldgen icon. Example: Shovel, Fire Extingusher, Lasso, Rubbergun. Its nearly save to say that these four items will never be used.

 

I think its save to say that Rockstar atleast planned to add the weapons i first talked about because they also got soundfiles and (correct me if im wrong) a model.

This is for those who usually check this thread more than the future DLC discussion that's currently pinned at the top of this forum.

Zanthera and I decided to go take a look around and see if we could find an exact building that the headquarters could be and most likely will be in, and we did find something that was pretty close to this photo (Credit to Crysis Averted for this photo)

After some investigation, we managed to get a photo that closely resembled the angle of the building shown. Note that the buildings in the background also closely match those within the original newswire photo. (Credit to Zanthera for this photo)

If you look closely in the enhanced and zoomed in image Crysis had made, you can actually see the curve in the road, although it's fairly hard to spot. So, where is this headquarters at? Well, it's in a building that actually makes a lot of sense. The Maze Bank building.

From this building, while hovering in a helicopter, we were able to snap a photo of the other building featured in the newswire teaser of the Finance and Felony update. Here are some more photos of this building, which includes multiple garage entrances.

(Credit to Zanthera for this photo of the heli pad)

Our speculation is that your personal assistant is actually a corrupt bank employee who you pay with some of the funds gained through your activities. The personal assistant, as stated in the newswire, helps plan and manage your funds that you have gained, as well as drug deals. Due to Maze Bank being the bank that our GTA Online characters actually use to hold their funds, it would make sense to have a person in the finance sector from Maze Bank help in managing our Organizations funds and plans. This is pure speculation, but we are pretty confident in this speculation at the current moment.

Very well done Viper and company.

 

IMHO this should be pinned at the top of each page of this thread until the release.

 

Additionally, here is a little response to those speculating on what expect for new content in GTAO.

 

In the software world where you have a product with the ability to upgrade or correct for error, a standard practice is to keep a list of changes, those include past, present, and future changes.

 

While they strive to release things in an organized manner, sometimes due to things beyond our control (sickness, weather, etc) its not ready for the planned release.

 

When it gets finished, its shelved for the next release and they move on to the next item on the list.

 

After Rockstar released this game in 2013 theyve amassed quite a shelf of changes. Some are already released. Some are in Progress. Some are only planned.

 

Its a pretty good bet that many of the best are being saved for the next Product (ie GTA6) release.

 

With the lawsuit looming the Houser's will want to limit the size of the contested profit. Legally they would have a tough time defending changing any defined project plans which were identified already for this fiscal year.

 

So if I'm a betting man, I'd be putting my money on Rockstar clearing the shelf on any ready projects for GTAO and taking the majority of their effort to a new and more importantly uncontested product.

 

Could they do Heists 2 or add new locations... of course. But only where it supports their interest to do so.

 

Sure, some will complain... some might even quit. For awhile. But the majority will tolerate it and even better, pay them for more of the same dog and pony show.

 

With all that said don't think I'm saying I am any better than anyone else. Ive played GTA in every release so I am not exempt.

I wish Rockstar would do something for crews. I suppose these organizations are a start, as it's not like you can't work with crew members, but I always imagined sharing some bad ass crew mansion/headquarters ala The Godfather. There's so much you could do with something like that. Everything from pool tables to setting up defenses.

The game isn't big enough for individual crew to own property, and even if that where to happen imagine if for example, you and six of your men and shared a mansion with 30 other crews world wide and they are in the same session because the servers finds both parties easier to connect to for a public lobby.

 

I don't have to tell you the mess it might create...

 

 

That's why we can't have mansions.

That's why stilt homes still have teleporting instead of going in the property like in SP

That's why you're curtains in stilt homes are closed

 

Its like a different world when your in a property.

 

 

You should have had a stress test Rockstar...

this. people have great ideas but never seem to actually think about how it would work out or even think them through at all. no offense to anyone

[Maya Echo Visari]

I didn't know where else to ask; Smuggler Planes. They back? Confirmed? Because I just shot one down.

 

I recorded on my PS4, I'm willing to post a video I just need to upload it.

 

I'm assuming because of this talk about contraband smuggling that maybe they're making a return.

Most of these ideas unfortunately Require Rockstar to create the most expansive GTA online MMO (CrimeRPG maybe) with a unlimited player count,robust servers and the entirety of North America as a Map.

 

Probably a new Creator tool that doesn't just build Events, but crew or individual properties so that players share vehicles among other things. Whilst still prone to attacks from other crews or individuals as a form of a freemode event

 

This Concept map is large enough for everyone all over the world to play in without being easily snuffed out by the numbers game.

 

Thus the world doesn't have this type of technology today. As this takes a back seat...

[Goten21]

 

including more fun new Adversary Modes

At this point I just KNOW that they're pranking us like f*cking hard with this stuff

[burger_mike]

new score music pls

[Dr Labuschagne]

new score music pls

New music period would be nice

 

Back in '12 I though Miguel's - Adorn, would make it in a new "The Vibe" like radio station.

 

Well I was wrong...

Maybe but someone shot one down about month ago here and it didnt appear again once they left session so could just be code bug.. suppose we will see

[am30]

Crew hangouts would be possible.

 

It is currently possible for more than one player to own the same apartment and it wouldn't be any different to this really.

The crew system that Rockstar created is largely pointless as far as the game is concerned. Imagine how much it would add to the game if Rockstar even began to realise the potential of crews. I'm sure the initial idea was for crews to mean something or else why create the mechanism to allow us to form them?

[eyman]

I personally think,the crew system isn't really meant for anything other than to allow players to play with others that have similar ambitions. The point of having crews is to get players together. And that is it.

Except a crew owned mansion/hideout/club could work. The Crew leader would purchase the property for their crew. The property would then be accessible to anyone currently in the crew, regardless of what session they're in. They could even add new crew rewards. Crew members could invest their cash into the property to unlock crew abilities/vehicles/clothing/etc. They could take it further and even add a seperate RP/Rank system for crews. All RP earned by members currently in the crew goes towards raising the Crews Rank unlocking content to purchase for the entire crew. (If anyone played TDU2, it would be similar to their Club system.)

I would really like to see those smaller events come back though, particularly the armored transports. For an invite-only dweller they were something I really enjoyed.

If they make them not purchasable people will start liking them and begging for their return as purchasable items. Bad idea.

 

The purchase option doesn't harm anyone.
