Knowing R*, it's probably going to be more like this:

Drawing penises on a map. Good times...

I don't get the obsession with maps needing to be huge ... I want 'deep' maps full of interactivity and interiors, not massive ones if it comes at the cost of the former, which it always does.

So I rather have a smaller but incredibly dense and interactive map for GTAVI than the entirety of the US and parts of South America with 95% being completely empty and useless and only serving as a nice-to-look-at facade alà was the case with Los Santos and its surroundings in GTAV.

I agree humongous maps are overrated. I prefer a sh*t ton of interiors. Of course dont make it small like GTA IV with just city but it doesn’t have to be gigantic like RDR 2…

“Are you ready to rob El Rubio’s brother on the island of (whatever Rockstar chooses for Cuba) captain?” hehe

Kapitan*

Imagine them referencing how El Rubio is broke now after being robbed so many times.

Didn't R* go out and scan tree's irl or something for Red Dead 2? Read that a while back, some mad tech.

 

No but there's this

 

Maybe that's what you were thinking.

Rockstar needs to do away with the water borders. I can't tell you how immersion breaking that sh*t is for me in each game. All it takes is a 30 second helicopter trip to realize you're stuck on an island in the middle of nowhere. It's lame as hell and they did a fine job with land barriers in RDR2. I don't care if they have to give us a Battlefield style warning to return or get killed. Anything is better than feeling like you're in purgatory.

 

How do you think they go about doing land barriers in a game where you can fly?? Hit an invisible wall over a mountain? Get shot down by a missile?

 

That's because there's no flying in RDR2... lol makes it easy to do a land barrier

[(Vip)Met]

Oh god 3D scanning trees would take more work than just modeling them

What if they can do land barriers because it will be like gta 3, only the dodo can fly…

Axios Gaming briefly mentioning the info from their source in response to the Bloomberg article:

https://www.axios.com/newsletters/axios-gaming-013a309f-615c-4523-a506-83c884af3e01.htm

Spoiler

It’s an ambitious project but with a scaled-down scope for launch. That tracks with information shared by a source with Axios Gaming who said an earlier plan had called for four protagonists and three cities

Yeah this "scaled down" fearmongering stuff just sounds like things that were taken from a very early design document years ago that they probably dropped early as well - having decided to focus on only one state and 2 protagonists instead of a bunch of huge cities and 4 (?!) protagonists. Which says nothing about the true scale of the game - it could be one enormous city and surrounding area still. No one is able to characterise it until we see it.

 

I'm all for it because that will allow them to spend more time with the state of Vice City and any other cities and locations around it. Four protagonists would be ridiculous IMO.

 

or everything is a red herring and fake and R* will surprise us with something totally different  

[Emmi]

God, please no more than two protagonists ... three in GTAV already hurt the story more than anything (alongside them being absolute jerks as characters) but four, that'd be just ridiculous and nonsense.

Yes, the focus on one city with its surroundings (which still can have smaller cities and towns!!!) is way better than three cities but none flashed out.

isn't it weird that just a handful of people know about GTA VI's location? by which i mean certain devs

 

I wonder when more beans are finally spilled. I don't even need to see any trailers or screenshots. Just them stating which place it will be

I think it is pretty much 'confirmed' to be Miami and surroundings at this point ... what those surroundings will be and how big this entire thing will be is to be seen of course.

Yeah most likely. Bit sad to watch how these recent articles creating a 'let down' feeling among fans, although ideas like multi city map might have not even be considered very seriously during production. I'm sure that after the release people will go on with imaginary 'what could have been' copypastes.

[Starbeth]

imo infinite water is better because infinite land would be trickier to feel believable. even though they could generate different looking land forever it would feel out of place compared to the hand made granular detail of rest of the map. endless water feels more believable to me but i understand why some may not like that

[Emmi]

I mean we sort of do have confirmation that it will be Miami and we sort of also have an official first screenshot of GTAVI, even if it may be from a few years old build of the game.

Yeah I don't know how the water wasn't infinite in GTA V. Why the need to destroy your vehicle when you go too far? How come other GTA games managed to do infinite water? They should bring it back.

But what's the point of manouvring your boat into an endless ocean if there's nothing to discover, a island to go to, etc.?

Literally no point.

Those RDR 2 clouds look great! Can't wait to fly thru them

Ye and I can only imagine they will be looking even better in GTAVI than they do in RDR2.

Flying through them will be a moment to behold for sure!

I would have loved to see what the big passenger plane can do without having to worry about mountains and trees in GTA V. Turns out I couldn't because the map is so small

I guess it will be featured shortly in the teaser trailer ... kind of a cameo appearance hahaha.

Ouch! After a day like that you're better off with a paper gown and some Seroquel. Like all us Pirates fans.

 

GTA will be alright.

 

LOL  On top of hearing Benny was going to the Yanks, the guy we traded him for, Franchy Cordero - aka ‘the Franchise’ - made two errors in one play and three in one game. And I think he made another on top of that, but it wasn’t credited out of the mercy rule. And our Franchy has a near 50% strike out rate and barely hits 200.  Sorry about the Pirates - I used to have tons of Pirates baseball cards back when I collected in the 80’s growing up. I always thought you guys were rebels and kind of badass cause of the uniforms and cause we never played you. It was like you were in your own secret league.  Here’s hoping about GTA!  I’d love to see them bring Dan back to help finish the game but that’s probably asking too much. They could bring the Benz in too, but I want to see what he’s going to do with Everywhere  

[Emmi]

LMAO ... what is this crap even supposed to be. Hahahaha. This will give me nightmares. It is horrible! Not even GSG could mess up like this.

I think it's the opposite tbh. Just scan it and it's uploaded to your program and BOOM, tree.

 

3D scanning probably speeds up a lot of things nowadays without having to build it from scratch.

[Emmi]

One thing I hope for is more destructability within the world. So like for example I can damage a tree if I use enough force and it can collapse ... then actual workers will appear and re-build it to the initial state ... this whole thing will take several in-game days or even weeks, depending on the destruction you caused.

I think it's likely the world will be more destructible, but i doubt it will have this much of a  impact in the world

No, try 3D scanning accurately all the branches and foliage assuming you're lucky and there's no direct sun light and wind.
Game-ready trees take few minutes to make and they require WAY less work.
