Next DLC Speculation Thread (Part 6)

[Bully2comingsoon]

Beach festivals would be great with this I think. A stage, those huge speakers, DJ's, etc.

But it's qabeta that should be updated!

I am with you on knowledge but they really are leaving it late if they intend to use it to test before launch

you had to figure out the square root of 588 which rounded out is 24.

 

24 being the release date as it turns out. 

 

has nothing to do with a car,that was a false guess.

no its 2295 - 588 = 1707

 

the root of 588 is just if yan is wrong. He said 17th before, now 24th

wasn't there someone who mentioned that last week? 
Also the roles of Qabeta2 and Qabeta have been switched quite a few times in the past few years. So if it says anything, we can't actually make anything out of it. 

When the roles switch, we see development being made in "qabeta" instead of "qabeta2". They always switch the branches near release. Development has been made in qabeta2 thus far, which means it would switch to qabeta. It always does around a week prior to the update's release, it hasn't, so...

[Fatsanchez]

@Spider-Vice IIRC Fun mentioned that maybe they’re using QABeta 2 now instead of QABeta. And that we shouldnt rely totally on QABeta updates anymore. Maybe it was someone else but that talk definitely happened. I believe I saw Mach talking about this as well.

He also said that he doesn't give out release dates in the exact same post where he said that was just a coincidence so either he's a liar about tnot giving out dates, or thee 24th is his prediction

 

What? No. All he said was that he hasn't predicted a date.

It's basic version control, when you finish a project, you branch off the finished code to another branch for testing, and use the previous branch to develop further things.

well multiple updates were released were we got the dlc trailer on the moment of release...
The website of R*games still says this:

I believe we will just get it tomorrow, and a release trailer along with it. They already announced the DLC via a small Guest List trailer.
So when this DLC drops we will have had:
- 2 weeks of guest lists bonusses
- Announcement trailer of Guest list
- Trailer of Nightlife (tomorrow, along with the update)

Also: this is the 3rd week of July. So it makes sense that we get the stuff from the 3rd week...
Also2: Qabeta has been updated 3 hours ago.

God bless you sir

This exactly. 

Also they should have updated it around now if they still use it to test it for the 24th. 

[Smokewood]

July 31 if it doesn't get pushed back.

We have absolutely no clue what they are planning with this update - it could be giant.

The answer to my hint is not 1707 being the release date, by the way. It's quite an interesting coincidence though, gotta admit. But don't worry too much about that poor hint anyway, it's terrible and doesn't reveal much. Someone asked for a hint, so I gave them one. Otherwise I would not have said anything. Also, you know how much I hate leaking release dates, Rockstar always change them, I would not have risked it even with a hint. See you in 2 weeks!

I speculate we're all going to be in a nuthouse before the update releases.

where do you guys get that idea that it would come out on the 31st?

 

so far that has been the least possible date and it just sounds stupid. 

 

so far the update has been delayed twice,first it was supposed to come out in june,then it got delayed to the 17th,and now it got delayed again to the 24th.

 

they are not going to delay it a 3rd time or wait till the 31st to release it, besides they can't keep adding half assed event weeks and guest list rewards to fill the time.

To be completely honest I dont really understand how the QABeta testing works, I’m just saying what I read here. Not sure if this is correct, just spilling/sharing information.

 

Edit: I mean I know QABeta used to be the main branch for testing before an update, and that it usually updates 6 or 7 days before the update goes live (right?), so I was suprised too, and as mentioned above they should’ve updated it by now if the update is really coming in the 24th I guess

Rockstar didn't confirm the 24th and we all know that rockstar could update qabeta today   #team17

Rockstar have clearly changed what both Qabeta and Qabeta2 do. 

[B_E_N_1992]

What happens if they update qubeta 4?

[Devdevi45]

I believe In R* they could do the same with bikers drop the DLC right along with the trailer.

[GamingKernDog]

No qabeta branch switch, no DLC. It would be a development nightmare to not keep dev branches tidy as they usually do when a DLC enters the actual QA stage.

Usually when Qabeta updates, we are usually 3-4 weeks from an update, especially one this size. So no matter when Qabeta updates, that leaves no room in July for the update within that 3-4 weeks. So that's why I think they switched to Qabeta2

Now watch this thread go crazy about the 31st because someone mentioned it. Like the 17th and 24th before.

yan2295 - 588 = 1707 = 17.july

yeah that was what I found out as well (as the second person on this forum actually) - but yan did say that the hint was not related to the release date

[spence2345]

Just now, -Travis+Bickle- said:

Either he's a liar about not releasing the dates, or he's a liar about the -588 not being about the release date pick one, also just saying negative numbers don't have a real square root, in mathematics a square root has to be positive, meaning if his hint was a square root then it would be an imaginary number

[korhan332]

eh whatever we know how hard making a dlc and for the first time I Give rights to rockstar for delaying the dlc I'm sticking to 24th. it's better quality over quantity 

[-Travis+Bickle-]

He just messed up, thats it

somebody said square root of -588 is closer to 24

Edited July 16, 2018 by korhan332

[-Travis+Bickle-]

square root of 576 is 24, not 588.

=> 1707 was right, and he told us a false date
