Yes, something I also notice when I want to take snaps at a specific day time. Sun move just too fast. Double the day cycle time would be great.

Everyone who wants that should send this request to R*.

This might be far-fetched and may have been asked before, but: has anyone taken a look at the license plates Rockstar uses on social media? It would be an ideal location for hidden hints.

What kinds of crime do you do in Miami and the islands? I bet most of it is cocaine and then regular stuff like robberies, burglaries and car thefts.

The same crimes people do everywhere else.

It would be nice to have a photo mode where you can stop the time.

They mean the licence plates used in the cars they show on the Newswire lol. Don't really think there's ever been clues in those, they probably just use the randomly generated ones from in-game.

Not so sure about that. This is also far-fetched, but did anyone take a really close look at some of the track wheels you can get in the new update? Like the one called 'Hidden Six'?

That's too much imo, and hour per day maximum

Damn, why would I run a drug empire? Sounds boring as f*ck.

 

Let me just drive a car around and kill people. Sounds more interesting.

Provided they give us interesting characters, vehicles and an enormous city.

I kinda agree, or maybe I'm not just getting this "being a drug lord in a video game" -thing. Unless it doesn't work exactly like in GTA Online, how would it work then? In GTAs you are the freelancer, doing tasks for mob bosses who just sit on their asses and give orders to you and it's like this for quite obvious gameplay reasons. Player being the boss of an empire reminds of some sort strategy game, which I don't think would work in GTA environment. Obviously you wouldn't start from the "riches" so there would be physical tasks to finish, but isn't empire building largely politics, recruiting and other social relations, which again sounds weird in GTA's "action-adventure" environment.

Yeah, GTA has usually been about individual criminals.

I can see "being drug lord" working but maybe not for the whole, probably really long story. To be honest it sounds like a great idea for separate gamemode or background activity. It can also be interesting but it would require a lot of work. I also wouldn't compare it to GTA Online since the latter is focused on grind, not providing great experience to the player. I saw some great "rumors" by now when it comes to story and I'm sure, that Rockstar Games will again come up with something amazing and unique.

I've been playing a lot of hitman lately (the world of assassination trilogy)

They have Miami and Colombia levels...

For anyone that wants a "gta vi" experience at least when it comes to the South America part, I can't recommend the Colombia level enough...

 

The map is huge and comes with a drug lords mansion, village, drug fields, caves, jungle etc...

If IO interactive can create something that magnificent in just one level I just cannot wait for what Vi had to offer if they end up including South America.

 

Miami is great too but way smaller compared to the open world nature of Colombia.

Leslie wanted GTAO in the first place. Hell even the fallout between Sam and him them started from when Leslie put his name in last place instead of Sam's name GTAO's intro. He was even credited as the 'Director and Designer' of GTAO and his next game sounds like an MMO like project so it's clear what he wanted.

To add on that on gta v sp end credits you see Leslie Benzies name first instead of Sam Houser which infuriated Sam like no tomorrow

I've been thinking that IO Interactive could make a really great open world game

For me the best Hitman mission is the Carpathian level in the most recent series. It was a real 'wow!' moment, even though the concept is pretty simple and by definition very linear.

 

Without spoiling it too much for those who haven't played it but might want to, to me it felt like IO took a specific mission from RDRII but then developed it to a whole new standard of quality and playability. If only Rockstar could modernize their formulaic and tired enemy-spawning battle mechanics, then that level is a glimpse of what could be possible.

I remember there was a rumor that GTA VI's story would include three different time periods, from the 80s to present day with the game world changing from its cars to the buildings, music, technology, clothing, etc. That would honestly blow me away so much! I mean this way they could also have no excuse for GTA Online because it would be present day only and it unlocks 1 month or so after GTA VI's release to give players time to appreciate the story, etc. OR you can only access the online part if you reached present day in singleplayer ... that'd be amazing!

I've listened to that station so many times that I might be able to pull it off.

There is a bit in MSX 98 from LCS where the MC sends shoutouts to the Rockstar studios involved in developing LCS. Kinda cool.

 

"Yeah, to my North massive, out to the Leeds massive, Edinburgh massive!"

The promising thing is when they jumped from 3D era to the HD era they doubled the day length from 24 minutes to 48 I believe, so hopefully with the jump to the current generation we'll see a longer day cycle. 

 

It is more immersive that way IMO, RDR2 tries to emulate days-long horse travels from state to state, having longer days would just break that feeling. Cannonically, West Elizabeth and Lemoyne are miles and days away from each other, so when Arthur has to travel from city to swamps, swamps to plains, plains to forests, etc, he has to take his time, and spend days away from where the gang is, the day cycle the game has, alongside the survival elements of it, just make the travels feel longer than they are.

Just saw a thread about how Rockstar would parody tiktok and other modern pop culture aspects if GTA 6 was set in The modern era, and it got me a tad bit worried that the people who work at Rockstar would go full boomer and attempt to make "zoomer" culture.
