Logically will GTA O have to die/respawn at VI release?

[Jammsbro]

Okay, didn't see this on a search and I think it warrants talking about.

 

We have heard talk that this HD universe will continue and what we have willl stay and become part of the expansive GTA world. But I think this is only true in a geographical sense. When VI is released we will have a new map to explore and new stuff to do, but do you think we are going to be able to explore it with last gen (8) characters? Do you think they are going to let us go into VI Online world with rank several hundred character and everything already unlocked?

Remember, unlocks are one of the main reasons we play games.

 

I would say that when VI comes out, V world will become either defunct or another map portion of a larger world in which new characters have to level up in. Our current characters will die away.

 

Sorry if this has already been put out there.

[555-We-Tip]

I would be surprised only because there is so much money to be made in us starting our characters over.

[DarkSavageDeathlyCloud]

No

Look at what happened with gta 4

 

Ive seen this topic pass some times...but seeing as i cant find it even on google( srarch function of the actual forum is broken) i think that might have been in unspecified threads or in topics that have been deleted....or i suck at searching

There will be a gta6 to give the first boost of sales, then there will online dlc and week events for a bigger online.

 

This method works fine for them now , down side for us is we would like more content now !!

I don't mind stats being reset as long as we get to keep our physical characters. Starting at level 0 with no money doesn't bother me in the slightest, but I like the way my character looks.

 

Unless we can change body shapes, in which case sign me up. I'm too tall in GTAO and want some more junk in my trunk

imo we should keep rank up to 200, all money after a check to see if it's legit mostly and everything else

 

but play to unlock everything else that's new in 6, and buy anything left from 5

[ji.Ruichi]

Nooo!!! I don't want to go through character creation and tutorial part another 10 times.....

[bulldog385]

I'd be happy if we could have the Option to either carry over everything from V to VI, Just expand our "lives" into the next Location. Or we Could start fresh.

 

Why Else would our Characters have a Max Rank of 8000, if we wont be able to transfer?

[EggsAndJam]

I think they'll possibly allow you to transfer over your character and then have the option of editing them in GTA6.

I imagine the editing options will be a lot more involved so we can have truly individual characters.

 

And then you'll be rank 0 with no money or unlocks.

[hispls]

No way you'll be able to port your character. The most I see them doing is give a special weapon/vehicle/outfit to players that have played previous GTA games.

 

As it stands, every junior high kid with 10$ and a friend with a PS3 and USB stick is level 1340 (looked so cool when it was 1337) and has 10 billion in the bank.

 

Even the legit high levels will never need to spend on micro-transactions, so you had best believe that after the success of micro-pay they will do their very best to prevent people from being billionaires.

 

I can only think of one sequel game ever that lets you port your character with levels (and some items) from the previous game and that's PC Baldur's Gate into BG2 and even that takes your money and all but a handful of specific items. And the level progression is irrelevant because if you just created a new character it would start you at the same higher level that you can port in anyway.

[El-Gaddafii]

Personally I think the next portion of online is going to be a continuation of this one, as others have stated why else would there be a level 8000 cap? (Either our characters are going to be able to transfer to GTA 6 or rockstar dont plan releasing 6 for a very long while)

 

I think it's plausible, sure we may all be multi billionaires by then but it's not like we would be able to transfer all of our assets to the next city. We would still have to buy a new safehouse, cars, weapons etc.

Then theres the question of level locked items such as weapons etc. Which rockstar could work around by making weapons, vehicles, properties and other luxuries Mission-locked for example.

[FriendlyFireOFF]

It'll be like transferring our characters to current gen. It's highly likely whatever map GTA Next has will be added so we'll be able to travel to or we'll be able to switch to in the GTAO 2.0 world.

 

Hoping they add dedicated servers and more freemode filter options at the very least.

Wait and see.

[Hunter]

I think we will; if there is a GTA VI, that is.

You think they will skip a number?

 

 

Sounds like they are all coked out of their heads so it's entirely possible.

They'll probably just make a backstory of us getting robbed/or our bank accounts suspended by the FIB and we have to leave everything behind etc

OMG

 

 

Never thought of that!!

 

Or, we could talk about if we want.....

[em1b16a2]

I don't think it will be labeled gta 6, I bet rockstar abandons single player all together and focuses all effort on GTA online.

[A.I.R]

Maybe our avatar but the rank and money NO. Why i want to start a new game been level 571 and 8mill in the bank?

Thats exactly the reason. Imagine a new game where you have instantly unlocked every single thing and are already at maximum stats. Who's going to play that? Rockstar are going to reset us all.

[Kid-A]

I hope we can at least keep our avatar. I've grown to like my dude.

Rank and everything else would be reset though, which is fair.

I would much prefer everyone reset, but as coleco said, it'd be nice to keep characters unless there were some major improvements to the creator.

 

It would be kind of stupid to keep our stuff, people would get bored too quickly.

[Hybrid_Punk]

It would be schweet if they kept everything that we have in GTAO right now and just added a lot more things to unlock. Surely Pegasus wouldn't stop giving their services to us because we moved to another state? (I'm talking about physical things we've purchased by the way not stats, etc.) If that resulted in a rank reset I'd be okay with it.

[UKPortista]

I quite like the idea of starting over in a new city with a new character and zero assets.

[KODRB]

I think it'd be nice if they let us keep at least a little bit of our cash, maybe a percentage of (like 1-10%) as returning players, along with our already made characters (but give us an option to edit/update them) and then everything else is left behind in Los Santos.

 

They'll probably go with the whole "you had to flee because Martin, Simeon, Gerald, and everyone was getting busted and the FIB was hot on your trail as well! All Lester could snag you was a portion of your bank account!" storyline, and that's probably how they'll write him out as well, he went west, you went east and he tells you to never contact him again.

 

Stats they'll probably reset, well at least rank but shooting, driving, etc. they'll probably leave because they don't unlock anything.

 

Cars will get left but clothes will probably carry over because we're returning players. Other than that I don't see much coming with us and even with all that I'm being hopefully liberal.

 

Weapons will mostly get left except for your trusty pistol from Lamar of course.

[FlacidJack]

Pretty sure if they let us transfer they'll have the regular 70$ game, then the special "back from the past" edition for 150$ ...or higher knowing R*.

[CarimboHanky]

like i have said in other similar threads, im sure they would allow us to move onto VI with our current character, hence the 8000 level cap, what i dont know is how they would handle unlocks for high level players while keeping stuff balanced for new comers.

 

one thing for sure, i dont see them letting us move with our assets, they would spin a story where we lose everything or stuff get seized but theres no chance in hell they would allow us to move with millions, fleets of cars and yacht.

[R3CON]

I have no clue what's going to happen, so let me say that first and foremost. But I doubt they'd let us keep our characters. There's no incentive for Rockstar to do so. People are going to buy GTA VI regardless, so its not like they need to throw us a bone in this regard.

 

The best way to maximize gameplay is to force us to re-eztablish ourselves. I don't think anything will carry over, looks, money, rank, etc.
