As much as I understand that IV's map would be easiest option and if we do get a map expansion of a large'ish size it's likely to be LC, I have to agree with @Jasperathome on this one, I want to see SF with a modern engine...

i think it would just be nicer to be able to drive to the other map instead of taking a plane to lc, anyway im not keeping my hopes up that lc will happen anyway it would be cool but im not trusting rockstar will do this

Yeah i agree.

They will definitly make a new version of GTAO for GTAVI.

I just mean that some small stuff like vehicles and weapons could easily be ported to VI.

Porting regular cars to VI? sure, never said that would be a problem. But the dude was talking about porting the entirety of gtao to the next game. That obviously wound't be as simple as porting a regular car or a gun.

Also my example was about adding cars to RDR2 by simply copying the models and expecting it to work right away.

But sure, porting old cars to the new gta never was a problem for pc modders in the past. Tho most of them would probably look outdated by that time gta VI is out. On the other hand some of them are sooo detailed that if feels like R* just ported them from VI to add them as gtao content (like for example those classical versions of Cheetah, Infernus and Tursimo. They feel like they were pulled straight out of GTA  VI-ce city).

But if we are talking about vehicles some with unique features (like avenger, r2k, deluxo, stormberg etc) - they don't even work properly when you simply copy them from gtao to  gtav SP. Thats cause there's a lot of extra code that is required for them to work properly even tho its the same game.

i love nyc but we just had liberty city in the last game

im not on about practicality in rockstar making san andreas from scratch im on about people for some reason want to see a city we just had

Its not about what people want my man... Its about being realistic and understanding how game development works and how much work would it take to make a whole new city from nothing.

With LC the city is already there. So most of the work is already done. So we speculating about things that are possible. Its not about wishlisting what we would like to have the most...

Maybe driving to the other map would be more convenient for you. But having two huge cities next to each other would only make the game even more laggy than it is right now. So loading to a different session with a different map makes more sense. 

Another alternative is placing them so far away from each other that only one of them loads at a time. But in that case the bridge that connects them would be ridiculously long. Plan is the most logical solution here.

Same. And I think it would be easier to implement anyway by adding partial map expansions (Yes, I do believe they can optimize the game well enough to be able to support this kind of idea on next gen/pc).

How about making Amanda, Lamar, and Ron as a new playable characters in GTA 5 for singleplayer DLC? Here is my concept of the new character selection wheel. Lamar's signature colour will be green, same as Franklin.

It should require 100% completion of the game to unlock Amanda, Lamar, and Ron.

The online version of GTA 6 will be very barebones in the beginning; that's why it makes sense to still make GTA 5 Online available on new gen consoles.

Well, that will be showing up in thumbnails pretty soon.

 

I mean, it would've been a cool post game feature planned for a 2014 release, but we'll just have to settle for Director Mode. It's funnier to conceive the notion that Amanda goes from petty theft shoplifting, to rampaging with an explosive minigun.... with cucumber slices over her eyes.

You can want it doesn't mean you'll get it...

 

Rockstar wants to cut their losses, they already reused a huge chunk of content we already had for Casino Heist. Do you really think they would put whole LV or SF for free for old consoles on old revision of the engine that can barely hold it's current content? That's cute. 

 

IF we would get any sort of map expansion (and really I just think they've used bad wording, that's about it), it will be something they have lying around, either North Yankton or LC. If it was LC I doubt however it will be available for Freeroam... Probably Algonquin and parts of Dukes, Alderney and Broker would be probably just LODs or even flat texture in the background... Would I rather get something else? Sure. But is it even slightly possible? Unlikely imho.

Something for people who think that literally everything posted by Yan is always a hint



He was obviously giving us hints that R* was working on remastering Liberty City! LC confirmed! /s

edit: damn... I just realized that I probably created 10000 clickbait videos with a single pic from 2018

I will keep my assumption....

Gta 5 online will be SA+ area X(the area they add this december)

Gta 6 online will be new city with area X

Owning gta 5 and 6 in same account can enjoy all content and travel to every city

i do laugh that people think lc is not possible they ported a map three times the size to this gen in five doing lc would be much easier . 

and there are workarounds to some issues peds not like you cannot reuse some peds especially in online peds do nothing most of the time . 

cars most cars in online were in 4 so thats not an issue . 

radio stations do you think rockstar would worry about having five stations in lc this is no issue would probably add more stations anyway. 

the only issue was sync with sp and and the extra memory updates would cause if they did this years ago updating lc and san andreas . 

thats why i suspect they might do lc as the final update for this gen which the winter update will be anyway and then do updates only for next gen

Nothing kills immersion more than cut scenes and loading screens, if you ask me.  It's the one thing about the yachts they added to online that disappointed me to no end, having to load into the interiors.  If it was fully open, like the single player yacht, I would have bought one.  lol

 

But yeah, I hope they find a way to reduce loading screens in the future, even if they have to get creative about it.  I'd love to travel seamlessly from map to map.

Bruh like 80% of gtao experience is being stuck in a loading screen. I think you should look for a different game xd

Sucks how in literally every enterable buildings post-heist update We just teleport into locations (the purchasable properties/places we enter for missions and setups) and see this half-assed animation of us pushing the nonexistent door from angles we cant see not only the interior but even the doors - immersion totally gone.

Lol. Bs. Rockstar is milking any chance to get people to get the gamw again and "upgrade" their lousy few updates left would not break any of my consoles. Though i got pc now anyway.

Would you rather have 10-20 fps less (unplayable if on console) or current state where you have to load your character into interiror?

[Rooni]

Feel conflicted on the whole new map thing. On one hand I don't believe they'll do it. 

On the other hand I was proven wrong when at release I told all my biker community friends "they'll never do an update for us and on the off chance they do it'll be like a beach bum update. No clubhouses or anything.".

 

So they might surprise again

I checked out my social club hours for sp and mp and compared it to my Steam hours, it seems I spent 145 hours loading. Nice.

Think about how epic that would be. It would please (or at least satisfy) the video game journalists who have pointed out the sexism in video games for the longest time. We're not getting Amanda, some pretty housewife whose missions consist of making Michael a sandwich and screwing the yoga guy. No. We're getting ADS, the new terror of the town. Cheating bitch at day, to bitch cheatin' the system at night. Night clubs, casinos, Fort Zancudo, you name it. What really happens when Michael is out blowing up sh*t with Trevor? She's out there paying the taxes on the house by seducing security guards, flying jets, and blowing up places that need blown up. Not to mention, she's one of Jock Cranley's mistresses and the best friend of Sue Murry. You get dirty with politics and come out with more money than Lester could be charged with for all the... questionable content in the Not pr0n folder. Amanda would have one kick-ass story.

As for Ron, I actually had to think about it, but there's a story. A small one, but somewhat of a story. Well, idk what it is, but playing an old man would be kinda dope if you spend most of your gameplay doing missions like getting out of the hospital without paying your bill

 

As for Lamar, basically the Chad equivalent to Franklin (Brad). You continue work with Simeon and repo more than just rich people cars. You end up repoing locomotives, helicopters, and even a mo-f'ing tram. Only he has the skills to lockpick trains, and drive them back to Simeon's garage.

[jonesad24]

It looks unlikely I’ll get my wish of a new business in the update so hopefully they improve a few of the current ones. Mainly the MC businesses. Those sales missions are virtually unplayable.

I think it's safe to say that whether this summer update is big or small, focuses on new business or old, the vehicle dripfeed is going to suck nuts.

ever since after hours retrofitted cars with new liveries i've always wanted some 80s themed ones for the deluxo and ruiner/ruiner 2k. Like wireframe or 80s sunset
