Rockstar love to out do themselves, I'm certain GTA VI isn't going to take place in one location. The power next gen brings it is going to be quite special.

They do indeed love to outdo themselves. "Bite off more than you can chew. If you don't you'll end up doing what you did last time" However, I don't think multiple locations is the only way for them to do this. We've been saying ever since San Andreas that GTA needs to be multiple city locations. But perhaps Rockstar will instead go deeper. One location, and surrounding areas, but a whole lot more depth and immersion, etc...

I would actually love for Rockstar to stick with one city and a countryside yet make it super detailed with tons of interiors and activities. With Online I don’t think that’ll happen but you’re definitely right that simply having more cities isn’t the only way of making the game more ambitious. And yeah, people have always speculated that the next GTA will have multiple cities since San Andreas, but that’s yet to happen.

 

Red Dead Redemption 2 was several states, although extremely condensed and the map was actually smaller than GTA 5 but way more living and detailed. I wonder how that will translate to GTA 6? I wouldn’t be surprised if GTA 6 is only 1.5-2 times larger than GTA 5 in technical size even with 3 cities as 5 was mostly countryside.

I don't see why not. GTA III wasn't based on New York, so that's why the World Trade Center wasn't there. In GTA IV, it was 2008, and it wasn't built yet. If they do a new rendition of New York, I imagine they would. It's in Spider-Man, afterall. Although they did have to change it, due to not having the licence. It was in the original build, as seen in trailers. but switched in the final release.

Not sure I understand your reasoning there. The Project Americas leak (by which I mean the video by The Know) was looking more credible after specific discoveries. The line of code that references "Americas" could be coincidental, or be in reference to something else. However at face value, I'd say it does. I do agree though, every other mention of "Project Americas" in leaks have been made up bullsh*t,trying to pass themselves off as real, because it "ties into this old leak". But this line of code is in the game itself, so I don't think runaway leaks have much to do with judging it's validity in this instance.

 

Otherwise, I agree. Nothing more, nothing less. At least not until it's clear and obvious. 

 

The original Project Americas reported by The Know always had a sense of some credibility as it wasn’t some wishlist disguised as a “leak.” Unfortunately due to trolls piggybacking off it people have dismissed it... until now. A single line of code isn’t proof but considering the actual Project Americas thing by The Know even said there’s only a 50/50 chance it’s correct and it didn’t contain any specific details like the blatantly fake crap that used it’s name, I think with what Tez discovered I think it’s not impossible the original Project Americas could be correct. But we’ll see

No. This is exactly how runaway leaks gather steam and spawn out dozens of other leaks - all of which are fake and opportunistic and rely solely on earlier (fake) info.

 

Remember exactly what was said: There was a single line in an old and early version of RDR2 code that made a single script reference to 'Americas'. Nothing more, nothing less. 

 

 

I was referring to The Know only, nothing that's since spawned from it.

 

I'm not saying the leak is true, or that I want it to be btw. I'm saying that if we were bookkeepers taking bets, out of all the sh*tty and fake leaks, the odds for The Know's info to be the correct 'one' would have shot up after Fun's find.

 

Keeping in mind that even if ALL leaks have been fake, we can only deal in what we have - so it is looking most likely out of all the fake leaks we've seen. Not my opinion, not what I'd like to see, just going off the very limited info. 

 

Odds fluctuate by math and algorithms, kind of like Wall Street. So say a boxer posts something on instagram that suggests he may be getting drunk a few days before a fight, the 'odds' for that fighter to win go down. Even if its proven this person wasn't drinking and people are making huge leaps and inferences, the odds still go down. I think the inverse of that example applies here for speculations sake.

BTW..no video game has ever successfully created a 1:1 rendition of New York City (All 5 boroughs)..this would be a feat unmatched by any.  

Driver Paralell lines had all boroughs it was pretty damn massive and pretty for a ps2 game.

La Noire is the only one with a 1:1 map and even then it was mostly downtown la that was accurate

My big question is , if Rockstar does decide to go back to LC...do they have the balls to put 1 World Trade in it?

My next question is how do you make your own rendition or parody of something so touchy, so emotional..there’s no way to make the World Trade Center funny in any way, so I suppose a parody that’s not satirical, more so in good taste and honor..? 

Examples : Tower Of Hope , 1 Hope Plaza , The Helping Hand Center , The World Industry Center, Angel Square..

Moreso after I found evidence proving the document about Rockstar scouting in Miami was likely true. The Podcast where she mentions working with an unnamed digital media company, due to NDA, was what should have "shot the odds up". At least in my opinion.

90’s New York would be f*cking amazing..NYC in the 90’s was gritty af! People say the 70’s were but that’s only because NYC was severely dilapidated and filed for bankruptcy therefore everyone felt the poverty bug...not the 90’s. NYC just came out of the Crack era and Giuliani basically waged a war on minorities stripping once drug lords and cronies down to nothing forcing thugs and extremely hostile and violent criminals to every street corner, in 1993 you could of gotten robbed right in front of The Empire State Building and the NYPD would just laugh at you for being stupid and not aware. This is also the era that Rockstar  was created and moved into their studios on Spring Street not far from Canal downtown in 1998.  90’s Liberty City  Ftfw..

Is there any chance they could just model the fully built Amir tower after WTC? Doesn't have to be a completely on the nose reference to the real One WTC, just one loosely based on it. That's assuming though they use IV's LC as a basis for any future renditions of the city.

Oh for sure, great find too!

 

Being able to draw a line (however loosely) to connect R* with the word Americas, and location scouting in Miami, is a little exciting. We obviously have no idea what any of it means, if anything at all, but it's exciting to speculate all the same. 

 

 

[GTAhare]

With Lenlfc verifying the document as most likely true combined with Tez finding the line of code, I think it’s a very good possibility Project Americas could be real. But keep in mind that there’s been several fake “leaks” using the Project Americas name that unfortunately got a lot of coverage from z-grade websites and YouTubers. Project Americas being real would only prove Vice City and somewhere in South America, only locations, nothing about what time the game will be set or gameplay, etc. 

 

But what’s with the talk about Liberty City? Project Americas said that the game would feature Vice City and somewhere in South America. I’d personally prefer Liberty City to a South America location but Project Americas never said anything about Liberty City.

I would love to see it actually be Larry David, and all the missions in the game are basically trying to unf*ck an already awkward situation. In the last mission, everyone wants you dead, but you realize tomorrow is still happening whether you like it or not, as Frolic plays over the end credits.

I don't see how flying between countries can be made easy and good looking. So you take a plane, fly above water and then goes loading screen?In this case how will they sell this? If we don't have load screens then game turns into Microsoft flying simulator with not rockstar style physical borders or some stuff. And all this will take a lot of respurses.

My guess it will be 1 city and a countryside of modern day Miami and some snow part of another town.

Who said anything about a loading screen? It's just an island, miles off the coast of Vice City. Just look at a map, Cuba ain't that far from Florida. Obviously, in game the scale would be reduced. But ultimately, you'd just fly there (giving aircraft a much bigger purpose than just fun/showing off online) or take a boat. Basically, my theory is it'd revolve around smuggling side missions, or main story missions. if GTA V's theme was heists, GTA VI's theme could be smuggling, gun running and building up a drug empire. If your game is set in Vice City, then Vice is the perfect theme.

[SprunkieMonkey]

If we have 2 islands then gameplay will look like you travel for some minutes in boat or plane and that's it. That doesnt look fun to me. That is how I can imagine it. And again for two big islands you will need to do twice work for characters, cars, culture etc as well as you will need much more resources and power of consoles. Will they run it with higher quality than V? Thats the question. That Americas leak looks too ambitious even for R.

Nobody has even seen it yet. it's all just speculation and theories based of unconfirmed rumours. Besides, GTA V had Los Santos County and Blaine County. Two different and distinct areas. Los Santos itself being extremely diverse. So "twice the work" isn't uncommon for Rockstar. Also.... Next gen consoles are considerably more powerful. So don't worry. And it's GTA, it'd be a lot more than just travelling

That’s the thing I don’t think the old LC will be used. I think a new iteration of it will be created. 

[DexMacLeod]

I've never really liked the idea of smuggling as the main focus of the game. Everytime I try to imagine Rockstar attempting it I just picture missions where we fly a long way to pick up the drugs, things go wrong so we have to shoot our way down a path until all the enemies are dead, then we fly a long way back.

 

I can't wrap my head around how they could keep that journey across the ocean engaging enough that I'd want to do it more than once.

The thing with that is though I can't imagine Rockstar dumping the HD era after two installments... Which will practically be a necessity if they go ahead and redesign LC.

That said though, and I've said it before, if LC is included in the next game I can only imagine it being lile New Austin in RDR 2: A pretty bare bones area of the map designed predominantly for use in Online.

[Jabalous]

GTA has already done smuggling and gun running?

We already do that in online and it's already boring. I'd rather they just focus on us being the dealer not the smuggler.

What do you prefer, Max Payne 3 / RDRII style weapon system, where you can only carry a few weapons, more realistic or classic GTA mode with the magic pocket that can carry infinite weapons?
 

I prefer a more realistic and grounded style experience like RDRII, I think GTA VI could be even more realistic and with more survival elements.

RDR2 definitely. And they should bring back weapons being confiscated when you're busted. I just shot this guy and you're gonna let me walk away with the murder weapon but take my ammo? Made no sense in GTA V.

 

Buying and having weapons should be a continuous process and not a one time thing. There's no challenge in being able to access a weapon wheel containing 30 weapons at any given time.

[Felipeborges388]

I don't like it when you kill someone and then get arrested and get out of jail a few hours later, it gets me out of the immersion, I think if you died or got arrested you should start from the last save point. Imagine you playing GTA V killing everyone, then you are arrested, killed 300 people, released 6 hours later, it makes no sense to me.
 

Another thing I don't like is the character with bullet holes. If you get shot you're f*cked, a character with a bullet hole makes no sense, you don't feel the weight of getting shot. The life bar should be a lucky bar, if it ends you take a shot and die.

Dont forget TezFunz leak about Liberty City being a DLC for GTAV around 2016/2017 but got scrapped for "reassons"
