All I care about is playing GTA VI story mode and then hop into a RP server and roleplay. I really don't care about GTA online that much.

[Zello]

All these leaks finally make sense. Kacey is based off Casey Kasem but since he died 5 years ago R* has been doing some voodoo in order to summon him so he can do some voice work. The problem is he likes to possess people and they've had to do exorcisms on a lot of employees leading to all these delays.

Why would he be discreet about seeing an already announced game that the public has seen gameplay from and a game that is set to launch before next gen arrives? Lets think again shall we?

Also, he said a new IP that is years off.

 

 

EDIT: Oh God at the last 3 pages...

This is gatekeeping if I ever saw it.

Setting a game in the 80s, 90s changes nothing on the TTWO"s plans to monetize the game, there's nothing added on GTA Online that cannot be also added on a game set in the 80s. Online games dont need to make any sense, or have any logic.

I’ll be about 40 years old by the time

this game comes out lol.

[GTK0HLK]

idk how long that will be..,

it might be tomorrow, far as we know.., ynnel

 

but agreed M.Assasin..,

like this one comment about using magazines, or making calls or orders..,

that could simply be added to online for rarer stuff.., as well as sp..,

 

I still remember serrated edge..,

from GTA iv.., in which it was just like those jewelry channels that are in those obscure channels one can easily find..,

 

an era does not make a great game, or more likely for one mode to be more friendly to players than another..,

(also agree with the gatekeeping comment one other person said..,

quite a way to no true scottsman..,

even though I a int for GTA 6 to be a time period.., I will not mind it.., long as r* wont mess it up.., but it may.., which brings the question.., do you want them to have more time to hash that out.., or you want it now..,)

Why can’t online be in the “past”.

 

RDO is. 

 

An 80”s setting would be a good change from the current “future” GTAO.

 

If you want to play current times, then keep playing V”s GTAO.

[Benefactor69]

I don't understand all of this talk about how GTA Online couldn't work in a 1980's setting. Almost everything the game has would still fit with some reworking, and there are other reasons I could see them setting the next game in the past.

 

Super/Hyper cars - There are a lot of weird and obscure concept cars from this era that could be added in DLC to keep the people who like the futuristic concept cars relatively happy.

 

"Meme" cars - GTAO in the 80's could still have all of the flying Deluxos and rocket cars it wants (not that I want it to), they aren't exactly new ideas. Flying Deluxo is the flying DeLorean from Back To The Future, a movie series from... the 80's. The Ruiner 2000 is KITT from Night Rider, an 80's TV series. The Scramjet is the car from Speed Racer, a cartoon even older from the 1960's. None of these cars are realistic in an 80's setting but they aren't realistic in a modern setting either, so that cancels out. An 80's GTA game doesn't have to deprive people of these types of vehicles.

 

Cell phone contacts - Cell phones already existed at the time, albeit much larger. Some of them could save people's phone numbers too, so I don't see how Rockstar would be unable to rework that into a contacts ability on the phone. Pagers were also a big thing at this time and could be used in the game as well.

 

Internet - The internet didn't really exist at the time, but the features people use it for in GTA V/O could still be implemented into the game. Cars could be purchased or ordered from a dealership rather than online, while properties could be viewed and bought from a realtor's office instead of online as well. Losing the in-game internet doesn't mean losing it's important features, and it could add more interaction with the game world.

 

Stock Market/E-Mail - While the stock market and E-Mails aren't really used in the online component of the current GTA, they could still make their way into an 80's game. In the 80's some computers had remote access to the stock exchange, and early forms of E-Mail existed (Bulletin Board Systems, or BBS).  An 80's game could have these accessed through a desktop computer in the players safehouse, which would also give safehouses more of a purpose which is something many people complain about.

 

Crime rates and current society - Currently crime rates in North America are some of the lowest they have ever been, which to me doesn't seem like the best era to set a crime game (especially after having done the last two games around that period). Chicago in the 20's was chaos, New York in the 70's was chaos, Miami in the 80's was chaos, Los Angeles in the 90's was chaos, etc. If I were creating a crime game I would look to set it somewhere or sometime that was riddled with crime.

Aside from that, Rockstar has said that making satire out of the current social and political climate would be difficult to do as it is already like a satire itself. Making satire out of the past on the other hand, that would be easier to do now. The only issue I see with an 80's Miami style GTA is that it would be similar to Vice City, however Vice City is outdated and over 15 years old but still a favourite of many people.

 

80's Nostalgia - There is a big wave of nostalgia for everything 80's right now, which makes it seem like it would be a good time to cash in on that with a GTA game set in that time. It's not just older people who lived through that time either, there is a lot of second hand nostalgia. Vaporwave and New Retro Wave aren't creations of baby boomers who were already adults at the time, they are creations of younger people with an interest in that era.

 

I'm not 100% sure the next GTA will be set in the past, but I don't see why it couldn't be.

Exactly! I don't understand why people think that GTAO would work only in a modern setting. In reality its the other way around, it fits more during the 80's or 70's or whatever. Also even if that was the case I don't believe R* would let GTAO dictate on what they can or can't do. If they want something done certain way, they will. Tbh I think people say that because of that one supposed "leak" that claimed next GTA is set during modern day because of the online component.

Great for you. But you know we can check you post and thread history and guess what, I just did it.

 

I searched for couple of keywords from your recent "leaks": Gambetti and Spanish Lords. What an amazing coincidence they all appear multiple times in your GTA VI story concepts from few years ago!

 

Gambetti:

Spanish Lords:

It's truly ASTONISHING 3 years ago, when you were only posting your concepts here, you got it absolutely spot on, because now you claim it's actually a real thing in GTA VI:
 

But it gets even better! 7 days ago you said you "have read some leaks"

and less than a week later you say you've spoken to actors and former Rockstar employees, plus you know intricate details about the game.

 

Yeah, I read about the multiple cities leak with a South America setting then investigated further to see if there were any truth to those leaks, I asked a few friends if they knew anything as I love GTA. I don't know any Rockstar employees and never said I did. What boggles me is why are you jumping on someone about leaks, rumors and speculation in a thread about leaks and speculation. Are you mad or jealous? Because if you want to PM me about my credentials, I'd be happy to give you my IMDb.

The 80's was the best era in America history just the vibe man, the culture, music, clothing, style etc...the drugs flooding the streets (thanks to pablo Escobar) no era will beat the 80's period. Rockstar games are smart to go back in time to the 80's they know the nostalgia will be bring so many players back and new ones...

[Americana]

Who cares - when it comes to Grand Theft Auto Online, Rockstar can include Internet and Smartphones / Smartwatches, etc. in 1980's.

 

Kids don't really care about realism, do they?

The kids playing GTA online are way too into modern setting, they want every game to be set in a modern day time period. They don't know the feel of going back in the past and getting a nostalgia moment. Playing GTA online in the 80's will have much content. Rockstar games can pull it off.

In RDO you can order items through a catalogue you have on your person, while out in the wilderness. If people think the lack of internet would be an issue, they're just not thinking open mindedly. You can even order items in story mode using real life internet, through the social club in RDR2.

 

Setting a game in the 80's doesn't limit gameplay, it just changes it.

I agree. That's why current day Chicago/Detroit would be the perfect setting imo. Chiraq is one of the most dangerous cities in America and Detroit is amongst the most violent cities in the world.

 

I can't believe some people want another GTA set in 80's Vice City. I'd like to see something new, not a remake of GTA Vice City.

Disagree with Chiraq. It's a bunch of young kids shooting each other over stupid sh*t. "Oh you was sleeping with my girl and put pics up on da gram you dead fool". "He stepped all over my corncords imma kill that motherf*cker."

 

I dont think R* can make a serious mature story out of that. Detroit I can see working but Chiraq I can't.

Right, which is the same point. Lack of internet is basically the same thing. Automobiles existed in RDR1, but there's a lack of them all the same. Usable/drivable cars don't exist in the game. etc...

Brings back memories from the Test Drive Unlimited games. You buy a car and the keys are hand over to you, it's so rewarding and satisfying. Looking for an house and actually going into the house to look at it and see everything in it is simply so good. Those games are at least 10 years old, just imagine what they could do with today's technology and hardware. Just the fact of seeing my character put the key in the keyhole of the car and turning it and then hearing the starter of the car and then hearing that beautiful V8 roars at idle would be enough to sell me the game. That's why I love the games made by Rockstar. That's not the game that really makes me play after years but just the little details and trying to find how they've made the game in general. Even the audio tools they have created has details.

It of course does, time periods matter and for the systems GTA has used for the past decade to incorporate player interaction it's almost required. RDR has never used that system.

 

GTA will not be a historical series anymore, it isn't launched frequently enough for them to do it these days. Retreading old ground with Vice City, if it happens will be done in much the same way it is done with GTA V and SanAndreas, same local, modern timeline. Every Rockstar title sans Red Dead Redemption has always been given a modern day setting, GTA IV, EFLC, Chinatown Wars, Max Payne 3, GTA V, GTA Online.

 

After 14 years people want them to revert the 1980's despite their being no gameplay reason why, you're just limiting, weapon selection, music choices, clothing and customisation and so on for the sake of having the game take place here. For nostalgia isn't an actual excuse or a good reason. We've had our historical title this generation with RDR2, give me a well-realized version of the 2020's wherever rather than retreading the same ground they did back in 2002.

I don't think it's really necessary for them to set the game in a place that's overly bad in real life. GTA's over the top crime and mayhem has never been an accurate reflection of any real place or time. They can pretty much turn any place into a GTA sandbox. I also don't know that setting a game that's typically an interactive parody in a place that's known for senseless gun violence is a great move either.

 

I do agree that they need a fresh, modern location, though. The idea of going back to the '80s just doesn't appeal to me at all.
