[GRANDHEIST]

If VI really is set in the future, 

 

I hope it is after World War 3 and only 80's cars, music and clothing survived

I really don't care about time period unless its the future then were doomed but 

Modern Day and anything before that will be fine . Multiple decades just sounds right cuz of the drug smuggling rumors , 80s miami was a goldmine for that kind of story and GTA Vice City even tho its great didn't do it justice in anyway when it came to the smuggling aspect of it . Modern day drug smuggling doesn't sound as fun but showing the start of drug trade in miami to it's golden age and then it decent into complete madness with cartel wars happening all over would be great material for a campaign and a darker tone is what everyone wants . I guess i just don't want a rags to riches story set in 5 months however showing The beginning , The rise and then the complete Downfall would be great if were talking drug smuggling either way it's gonna be hard to compete with rdr2 story

I was just about to ask this - I thought that "leak" with Kacey originated from Reddit? It's been from him the whole time?

I'm starting to think there's a possible 0.1% sense of credibility since the same name showed up twice. Unless, that Reddit dude yanked the character name from grope_4_that_date and some bits from other leaks to make his fake leak appear legit.

 

Kacey reminds me of Michael Beta name, Albert De Silva. Funny enough, there was an actual former Rockstar employee who spilled the beans regarding GTAV cast, except, surprisingly enough, he was wrong about some stuff.

Hello!

I am a friend of someone who recently got sacked from RockStar North for general misconduct. Because one contract to RockStar covered everything, including secrecy, and his contractual obligaton was now removed, he was legally allowed to spill the beans on Rockstar’s upcoming GTA V. And he is making damn sure everyone knows about it.

Here is the info you really want:

1. The protagonist will be one character, and one character alone. His name is (as some rumours said) Albert De Silva. He’s a half hispanic man who was once part of a crime family in Vice City. He decided to settle down and have kids in Los Santos. He has one son called Kevin De Silva who is your stereotypical CoD player. He’s lazy, useless and shouts racial abuse online and is really into FPS games. Kevin does admire his Dad though.

 

 

He also described the Beta/Initial version of GTA Online, CnC, because it was mentioned a ton of times within the developer build logs. So, Kacey could be the Beta name in this instance?

After 3 years, I can't even remember where it first popped up. But... I think it may be. People didn't really start talking about GTA VI until early 2019, after RDR2 released. So the timing adds up.

But it does show that not all employees are aware of each and every aspect of the game. Maybe things have drastically changed by today. Regardless, this raises my curiosity of that reddit leak. If we were to assume the leak is sorta legit, then there's a chance the leaker wasn't aware of "Kacey" being protagonist too?

The names would likely be different, regardless.

A shame Brother Adam didn't get the welsh accent. And who is Alex meant to be? Devin Weston?

Maybe the game will be set in the 1980s and it will end with a nuclear holocaust. Because '80s, the Cold War... you got the idea.

Not sure but there was a leak that said Ricardo and Kacey were the protagonist and a there was a female protagonist that got scrapped and under that leak someone chimed in and said that kacey is what they heard the protagonist was .

This the leak  and a video explaining it but i don't know if the leak on gtaforums was before that mention kacey . Anyway kacey leak seems real and the leak below was definitely fake or maybe inspired by the leak mentioning category 4-5 hurricanes that was originally post on gtaforums

Was there previuously a project codename, that leaked and therefore was changed, for say V or RDR2?

[Kirsty]

GTAV was Project Rush. Or at least it was for the casting calls that got discovered. I can't remember how we managed to link those casting calls to Rockstar, other than the descriptions "sounding" like GTA characters. They did turn out to be completely accurate though (other than their names being changed of course).

 

[jonnhy_xv]

ok after looking into things this is the first time someone mentioned Kacey and reddit leak was copied from this but they added Ricardo into this leak .

The casting was from Telsey & Company, which (at least at the time) was the company Rockstar would use. As well as it being tied to Take-Two.

 

[Original Light]

I honestly feel like this game is the one where they finally have the processing power to have GTA IV's Liberty City, GTA V's San Andreas (possibly even expanded, since we only saw Southern San Andreas in GTA V), and an entirely new Vice City - all in one game. I expect this, because it was in discussion a decade ago during an interview with the Houser's;  close to around GTA V's release. They stated that they would like to have all their cities in one game.

They couldn't do it back then, but they certainly can now. It would also allow them the opportunity to finally have GTA Online remain as its own separate entity, since players could transfer all their current data to the new GTA Online with all these cities contained in one game engine. I think this is a highly plausible scenario. 

 

If I'm right, I'll be going back to this post and quoting it!

Perhaps a little under 3 years. Just to be safe. Might not get the full announcement until October, for a fall 2023 release, and it could easily end up delayed until fall 2024. But fingers crossed...

No estoy seguro, pero hubo una filtración que decía que Ricardo y Kacey eran los protagonistas y había una protagonista femenina que fue desechada y debajo de esa filtración alguien intervino y dijo que kacey es lo que escucharon que era el protagonista.

Esta es la filtración  y un video que lo explica, pero no sé si la filtración en gtaforums fue antes de mencionar a Kacey. De todos modos, la fuga de kacey parece real y la fuga a continuación fue definitivamente falsa o tal vez inspirada en la fuga que menciona los huracanes de categoría 4-5 que se publicó originalmente en gtaforums

RDR2 was Project Remorse, it was also Bonaire as well after the release

My favorite bit is storing weapons in the trunk

[Original Light]

A lot of these leaks are consistent. But it doesn't confirm their validity, as they may just build off of one another. They're still interesting to read though. 

[jonnhy_xv]

i think it's safe to say that storing weapons or atleast bodies in the trunk will probably happen . I kinda hope they bring the weapons system from rdr2 and no pulling rocket launchers out your butt

Of course they are consistent, because they base their garbage off the same initial garbage. We saw these similar "leaks" ages ago.

I'm imagining a designer being presented with those two options and thinking "why would we spend a load of time creating more assets for the same map when we could spend that time creating more map with more variety?" - they'd essentially have to put twice the effort for what would hardly be more than a gimmick, unless it was some game where you could meaningfully go between the different times so it's not just using the past once and then staying in the more modern time; they'd have to be really sure they have a solid grounding for doing it wrt writing that couldn't be achieved by less exhaustive means - it really feels like one of those "ha, that's neat" features that you then don't care about once you just want to romp around the game, something which would clearly benefit from more location variety.

The project director has the vision and the designer tries to make it real. They could've tried to do it but maybe it was too ambitious for the time being.

Kacey is out. Now it's just about Ricardo and Rose's love interest. In the end, like in the spanish soap operas, they discover they are sinblings.

Why do people still keep bringing GTA IV's Liberty City into GTA VI? This game is 14 years old and copying it's map (even just as a part of much bigger map) would be lazy and underwhelming. Not to mention that they would need to change a lot in it to bring it to modern times. For me that idea stands in opposition to the ambition Rockstar supposedly have with this new game (or at least should have). New, bigger Liberty City though would be really nice as one of 2 or 3 cities.
