Next DLC Speculation Thread (Part 5)

[MGgames100]

Eh judging by the timing, this so called GTAV Premium Edition is probably GTAV with all updates and GTA4 with GTAEFLC as well, all in one package.

If it had GTA IV+EFLC it wouldn't be called GTA V Premium Edition... Edited March 10, 2018 by MGgames100

Would have to be downloadable as it wouldn't all fit on a Blu-ray

 

Lol 14 disks bruh ... you are entering the Vinewood Boulevard, please insert disk 8 to continue.

Its ridiculous how all these people who were saying "its DEFINITELY the 13th" are now " nvm its DEFINITELY the 20th." Saying whatever the closest feasable Tuesday is will be the day, that isn't speculating, its you just wish-listing the closest possible date.

 

Here's some actual speculation: the QABETA just got started updating... last week, i think? That puts the 20th at the absolute earliest date possible, and a highly unlikely one at that. The 27th is a much more reasonable guess, but even that is far from a sure thing. All the speculation of an update originally came from the rebate, and that was a tenuous boat to sail in the first place. The QABETA could just be getting worked on for something more long term in the future. It might be time to recognize that GTA is getting old, and the usual update schedule will not hold up forever.

All things said and done I think you have a functioning arguement for the 20th, and a more reasonable one for the 27th, but dont be shocked if march ends with no update.

A no update March is unlikely when we had March updates for the last 4 years...

 

Business Update: 4 March 2014

Heists: 10 March 2015

Lowriders: 15 March 2016

Cunning Stunts: 14 March 2017

 

We just had a 2X Bunker sales event week and now we have a filler 2X on races that ends March 12th. No one realistically believed in 6th March, they just hoped it would be that early. The 13th would actually falls within our average March update release. The Qabeta started updating March 2nd (friday of last week), so technically, next week is still within the "2 weeks of Qabeta updating before release" deal and we've had Qabeta updates twice after DDH was released and no one really knows what it was about. For all we know, maybe they've started testing things early and put it on hold until recently.

 

I'm still team 13 until proven wrong by not having anything released next tuesday. The 27th is just a silly date when you look at the previous years. With RDR2 pushed back from Spring to Fall, they'll want to keep players busy in GTAO until then.

That's what we're all wondering about

[IceDree]

Didn't New York have an awful snow storm in past few days? I know I'm reaching, but could that be the reason for the lack of the newswire post?

 

I can see the usual fan art posts being automated & scheduled in advance, but a dlc announcement requires a hands on approach to avoid screw ups.

You're not wrong... same thing happened back in November 2012 when the second trailer of GTAV was supposed to be out but got delayed a week (5th to 12) because of Hurricane Sandy on Oct 30th.

 

Hopefully this doesn't mean the update itself is delayed too even if the announcement was...

Pretty sure most of the posts are automated, including announcements are made in advance. They do that specifically so things don't get screwed up. Human error can be a bitch.

 

You gotta remember, they post the Newswire, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, all at the same time for literally everything they aren't doing that manually. They have a program thing (I don't remember what it's called, Spider probably knows) to schedule and post everything all at once.

I'm back...and I have my doubts of the DLC being delayed...it's most likely that they are trying to get it ready still and have ran into a few snags along the way (and no not quoting that guy)

Most companies use Adobe Publisher to schedule posts. Thats probably what they use or a program thats similar.

They could be using Hootsuite to post everything all at once at a scheduled date and time. For all we know, it could be ready as we speak.

Im also still team 13th.

There are several out there, Hootsuite is most popular. A company of R*’s size, everything PR and social media related are pre-scheduled weeks, even months (for larger announcements) in advance.

as long as I don't do the "fake Leaker" routine then it's for good...however I do intend to look through the newswires still...for what I could find idk....but I do intend to post info from them on here (the hidden details not the obvious ones)

no idea....but I do play Fivem and someone added LC to a server and R* has yet to sue them about it

 

Is This Good News or Bad News?

 

however I do doubt that they'll do that...cause if they did....they'll have to give it to everybody not just the consoles

That's what I'm hoping for this Monday.

 

I remember everyone was just as confused during that time as they are now. Except we had leaks during that time and knew almost certainly the update was due the 15th we were just waiting for an announcement. Right now we really don't know much.

When ESO puts out a new map, you can buy the addition on its own, or if you havent purchased the base game yet you can purchase the premium edition (whatever its called) that includes the base game plus whatever theyve added to date. Just saying.
