GTA 6 Speculation & Discussion [Part 7] - The one with the announcement

[YNNEL]

Thought he said it was in early development? A bit contradictory. If anyone else had written that it would be ridiculed by a lot of people on here.

 

And I don’t care what sex the protagonist is as long as he/she is well written. It doesn’t matter.

I also wonder how would Rockstar puts map border in this evolving map. It can't be another bridge blockade or invinsible wall, right? are we going to start with Miami and all of sudden have Fort Lauderdale on top of it; or does we start with complete Miami + surrounding landmass surrounded by sea with the new city being a new "island" map?

I think they could very easily make a decent sized prologue (or a flashback chapter maybe?) set in the 80s if it takes place on cuba or something -> I think they'd have to make a lot less changes to adapt a 1980 Cuba to a modern day Cuba compared to changing 80s Vice to modern day Vice

But if they're just in online it's impossible and unncessary to have too many npcs and ambient vehicles, the hardware won't be able to handle it if players are all in for full chaos especially the cities are big and spawn range is very far.Even if this is the thing it's still not so much work comparing to what you have to window dress up for story mode imo 

They have new tech that allows for seamless switching between sessions so the map most likely won't be one full session, but many cut up into sections.

If the ever evolving map plans are true then GTA VI -> Fortnite 2

 

Singleplayer will be a tutorial for the next GTA Online.

It's hard to say because anything can change between now and release, but the people I've talked to say it's just as big as previous games. More depth than breadth, maybe.

 

can't rule out any flashbacks or excursions, but AFAIK the main game is set in modern times.

Jason in 2020: GTAVI is in early dev.

 

Jason in 2022: GTAVI has been in some form of dev (you mean early dev?) since 2014.

 

Whatever makes you sleep at night dude.

 

Game in dev since 2014...

"yeah that's just early dev bro, full dev puts the release window at some point between 2029 and 2031 at the earliest.

I haven't been following, how accurate is the Bloomberg article?

The game’s new map is now focused on a fictional version of Miami and its surrounding areas. Rockstar’s plan is to continually update the game over time, adding new missions and cities on a regular basis, which leadership hopes will lead to less crunch during the game’s final months.

Not a fan of this idea. I'd rather have the game come out a year later than get "regular updates" which I bet will come in forms of paid DLCs

R* insider here.

 

Every part of the city will be connected by several bridges. Each one of them will have an excuse to not let you pass.

Some of them will be broken, some of them will be bombed by terrorists, others will be closed due to the "No Woman on My Game" protests.
Each 2~3 months, a bridge will be cleared to give access to a new part of the city.

So no planes/helis and boats until everything opens?

Hopefully this news coming out now has some relevance, like a trailer soon, Probably wrong but here's to hoping.

Honestly don't worry about this, R* games always are technical marvels, you can do whatever and you won't feel disconnected from the world, fly a plane and land and you won't notice popping, this type of stuff is always well thought out, they have tricks to prevent popping and such, cars are linked to areas on the map and in a memory pool, even radios in cars are choosen based on conditions , you're more likely to find gangsta style music in a car driving in the hood because immersion, this type of stuff really is like the thing that R* can do extremely well

Didn't he say that back in 2019/2020 or thereabouts?

So this is from the next gtao treasure hunt, look at the colors of the jacket

 

 

source - rootcause

 

Some kind of event or unlockable related to GTA VI? Just like they did before RDR2 back in 2017 (1 & 2)?

>skeleton, completely stripped of flesh and muscle matter

>clothing, completely intact and in almost new condition

Very cool R*

Just Miami could be bigger than LS, I honestly think people are forgetting this. A map filled to the brim with detail, with a city and surrounding area (or multiple cities) bigger than LS...

This is what ive been saying for a while. I personally would rather one city at a much larger scale then multiple town size cities. One of the things I loved about cyberpunk was the scale of Night City, it felt huge, like a city should do. This is the feeling I want to get from whatever city is in the next GTA.

 

At this point the only thing I'm worried about is the length of the game, how much is online only content, and how good the first person view is

Yeah, he said TWO FREAKING YEARS AGO, that the game is in early dev, today he said it's been in dev in 2014.

 

Which means two things: Either we are going forward in time and he's going backwards, so he's in 2018 right now. OR, his concept of what is early dev is a little flawed.

[Devdevi45]

Everyone still gonna get the New GTA but I’m sorry this is the Biggest L rockstar ever took they for sure lost they’re taste …. Smh everyone may not agree with me but this justification of how sensitive the world is 

[basedsam9]

Well that pretty much confirms no South America or 70/80's Miami. And it seems like Rockstar have lost their spine along with that.

 

What a shame.

Oh yeah I am sure they used to show up at work every day between 2014 and 2020 just to sit around a table and think of what the game will be about.

[LondonBoy]

So is that bloomberg report reliable or...?

Why would they not start with the pre production of the most anticipated game of all time shortly after the Release of one of the best open world games of all time? Nobody needs someone to confirm it, it´s just logical.

Tropical storm next week guys...

[VercettiGuy]

Watch them release Los Santos as the first big map update ... ugh, I'm getting sick 

 

But won't it take them forever to add cities? Years at least?

probably

[TIDZIMI]

Any recent fashion in the gaming industry has turned to Latinos? Far Cry 6, Forza Horizon 5, and now GTA VI? May they speak full English, because personally I don't like "amigo" inclusions.

I am asking about the finer details. I mean Schreier is kind of a scum and I think he was wrong a couple of times with his predictions

I remember the time when the first RDR2 trailer came out and the ones following, people were disappointed and thought Arthur looked massively generic. I personally didn’t get peoples concerns but the point is, maybe we’ll be surprised when the game comes out.

I think it´s good. It would only limit their possibilitys.
