GTA 6 Speculation & Discussion [Part 8] - The Rabbit Hole

[KEK540]

It got real busy here during the leaks and I was watching the clips over and over again so I may have missed the analysis of what we saw but I just feel everyone got swept up in hype of an announcement being imminent and the revelation of the setting and characters that there's still plenty we can talk about the leaks. I can understand that it's difficult to analyze the leaked clips without posting screen grabs or gifs but we can still talk about what's in them like the mapping topic.

 

One of the the exciting things I noticed was some of the changes to the controls. This isn't that uncommon between GTAs so I don't think it's worth starting a whole new topic for it but it certainly warrants some discussion. Thanks to the little display in many of the leaked clips showing player inputs as well as some of the prompts we're able to discern that the color coded buttons without a display correspond to an Xbox controller (yellow/Y/Triangle, blue/X/Square, green/A/Cross, red/B/Square) Whereas the shoulder buttons, d-pad, and start/select displayed are clearly labeled Playstation controller buttons so they're no mystery. As for the circles with a point in the middle, the top circle's point corresponded to player movement suggesting top circle represents the left stick and bottom represents right stick.

 

The first change I noticed was that in the diner robbery a prompt to press RB(R1) comes up on screen to talk to Jason and later the police. Made me wonder when else can I press RB/R1 to talk to Jason or any other NPC? Is it going to be like how LT/L2 while unarmed in RDR2 allowed us to interact with NPCs in RDR2? Would allow us to interact while armed without accidentally aiming our weapons around. Also if that's the case then what's the cover button, since that was RB/R1 ever since GTAIV? 

 

Scouring through the clips I noticed that the only other clip where the controller input display is visible and we actually see the character go into cover is the clip titled "Americas 2021-11-23 16-57-31". I think this clip shows a bug related to blindfiring from cover. It starts with Jason in a textureless void crouched behind a short transparent wall. Then he then stands and fires from the hip as the R2(RT) button is highlighted. He reloads but we don't see any input light up suggesting the magazine he was on has run dry. Then we see the circumference of the top circle highlighted (clicking down on the left stick/L3 probably) as Jason crouches even lower taking advantage of the short wall cover. R2(RT) is highlighted next and Jason does glitchy little dance. Pressing the fire button from cover in all Rockstar games is always how to blindfire, though either the animation for that was probably still missing at that point so Jason just glitched out is my guess. He keeps walking away and coming back but whenever he's in cover he keeps glitching out. What's interesting though is that Jason always goes into cover when walking into the short wall while crouching suggesting that there is no dedicated cover button and it's simply contextual. 

 

Overall it seems like the game's controls are trying to be complex like RDR2 but they're trying to streamline it more so it's not too overwhelming and cumbersome.

Were you able to do that in the 2010 RDR already? IV came later and that didn't happen then if that was the case. Hell I still remember the talk about Niko being able to carry weapon in a bag as seen by a screenshot or artwork. Plus fingerless gloves lol

 

Maybe it's just the different approach in gameplay, more realism than GTA. Still can be the same as of now unless they really change things this time with the next GTA as seen by the leaks (if that's not just placeholders/testing stuff)

 

Nah IV came out first and like VC and SA you could carry one of each weapon slot: 1 melee, 1 pistol, 1 SMG, 1 Shotgun, 1 Rifle, 1 Sniper Rifle, 1 Heavy, 1 Throwable. I believe in Vanilla IV there were only 2 weapons per slot in the whole game except the heavy which was an RPG. Then in 2009 we got both GTAIV DLCs which added an extra weapon to a few of the slots but were only available in that specific DLC. Then in 2010 we got RDR1 which introduced the weapon wheel and we were able to carry all weapons in our inventory and never lose them. Interestingly though our last used pistol was always visibly holstered to the player's hip and long guns were permanently holstered on our backs.

It would be the same as literally every GTA game before V. Once a vehicle is gone, it’s gone. 

Not any vehicle. Personal Vehicles. Those do respawn and are recoverable in both GTAV and GTAO. And I'm pretty sure any vehicle you buy, customise, and store in a garage will also be recoverable in some way.

If Rockstar approach refueling your car in a similar way to how they approached horse stamina in RDR2 I don't see how it would be a big problem. Though personally the best feature about refueling for me would be when you're in a chase and you want to steal a car but you don't know how much fuel it will have - and if that is the best a refueling feature has to offer - I wouldn't want it. Unless they make personal vehicles take a very long time to run out of fuel (and whenever you log back in they could make you spawn at a gas station for example, as if you had just fueled your car up)

If GTAVI comes out and takes place in 2024, then it will be set 16 years after the events of GTAIV and 11 years after the events of GTAV.

Hi, I'm a new member. I think the map with quincy world in it is actually real.

5 minutes past time - did R* oversleep or it's just the usual another day without an announcement? Oh well, onto the next day then. Or actually there's still a chance for today. 55 minutes to go, the train never brakes

Spoiler

dagger is making a reference to people who think something is legit just because it looks good, because no faker ever could make something good looking amirite

he put a video showing how he did that quincy world leak, the map itself looks bad if you look the roads are not that well in the city part. There's many talented people out there.

Go check the comment section in that video. There is a guy who says "It's funny that with the advent of real VI leaks, your map began to gain popularity again" and who made the video replies "Because people are realizing it was actually real and my fake is fake..."

Remember when we said the leaks looked to good to be faked? Well, what you just said disproved that  /s 

 

Even something that looks too good to be fake, could be fake. Some people have a huge amount of time on their hands

- Tryhard makes fake map and later admits to its fakeness.
- Leaks show tiny fragments of the real map in many clips.
- Those tiny bits of map don't line up with the tryhard map.
- "guys I think the tryhard map may be real"

That's actually a very good idea and reference to this real life event today if there's a mission to demolish this building for some reason on GTA 6, perhaps we could plant bombs on it stealthy and kill a entire criminal organization or something else when it blows up.
