Gaming Grand Theft Auto VI

Hmm I guess we will see by R* reaction to this. It would be nice if these leaks were 3 years old because that would mean we're 3 years closer to releases.
 
The reality now is probably that Rockstar quickly put together some more polished footage to put out the to the public along with some details to try and make these leaks quickly a thing of the past.

Probably going to be months sooner than they planned to show anything at all, and who knows if they have anything even worth showing yet.

A polished trailer soon would send hype to unreal levels.

I suppose they've just got to be grateful they didn't get TLOU2'd.

Why would they bother doing that? It’s not like this leak is going to put people off buying it when it’s ready. Whether they put a trailer out now or in two years when the game is ready to release will make no difference.
 
They'll raise prices in GTA Online out of spite!
 
Must be annoying for Rockstar to have a big leak, they'll be pressed to release footage at e3 next year now
 
He’s been in touch with R* there’s leaked screenshots of the conversation on Era. Claims he’s got gta 5 and 6 source code which would be a complete disaster for them.

The guy is apparently claiming to be behind the recent Uber hack as well which was done in exactly the same way as this through ‘slack’

What is era? Would be interested in having a read

Why wouldn't they? A lot of people are using 1080 or even older GPUs.

It's logical to use popular hardware when testing a build of a AAA game. No point in releasing something that's only playable on the latest tech. Makes sense that they're testing with the 1080.
 
The GTA Forums thread is no longer visible. Lots of YT videos removed.

That is very optimistic. Don’t expect it until 2027 IMO.

14 years between GTA releases would be insane

I haven't checked recently but the GTX 1060 was still the most used GPU on steam a few years ago with a much smaller percentage of people using the latest tech like a 3080 so it makes sense they'd be testing on a 1080. Maybe the 1080 will be the minimum required GPU to run GTA6.
 
I just want a good offline/single player mode. I really don't want it to be one you have to play online etc.

Also, maybe it's just me but I really hoped it would be somewhere different than a modern Vice City

Am I crazy or all those videos look like new characters just plopped into GTA V? The world design looks really generic.

Animations look different to GTA V, which I would imagine is much harder thing to do than design (eg. cars, building, people etc - this can just be loaded). Also, dialogue is very good, seems like a rather difficult thing to do to mimic Rocstar way.
I believe fake leaks do it actually the opposite way.

Like someone said in this thread already, if this is a fake then whoever did this should probably make their own game.

Pretty much still the case but not quite as dominant as before. Either way the percentage of cards with a similar or lower power to a 1080 is way higher than to above it.

Maybe that's because this Vice City location seems to be quite popular amongst fans?
Truth be told there's only one way from Los Santos and that's down.

Any signals about VR display?

I think that would be my dream game!
 
Borys said:
Indeed, I actually think they should just choose a location that suits VR game most and then focus on it instead of spending too much time on other revolutionary ideas.

Why would Rockstar base their design choices on a platform that's still extremely niche? GTA is pretty much the polar opposite of niche.
 
I wouldn’t be surprised if VR was perhaps in the works. Maybe not for launch of the game, but for a future update.

When they added 1st person view in GTAV, they did it in an extremely comprehensive manner.I read an interview where they outlined all the challenges they faced and how they went down a much more difficult path then they could have done to ensure the mode was as strong as it was.

R* have always created incredible worlds to explore. To be able to be fully immersed in these worlds in the way that only VR can truly do, would be absolutely amazing.

I certainly don't expect them to do so, because that would cost more money and they are to hit the selling records anyway. I just wish to play GTA in VR mode.

Just sit really close to the screen.

Because by the time GTA6 is released it will be ancient. Even the most positive people aren't expecting this before 2025 right? And 27 more likely... At which point it will be 8 to 10 years old. Developers always want the newest tech for a reason...
(It does make sense if some of the footage is from 2019).

I don't think it's necessary anyway, they can just slap a VR mode on it afterwards and it would work just fine. And if they don't, on PC the mod community will take care of it.

There will be single player but given the infinite money they are making from GTAO I don't expect it to be a massive priority for them.

If you compare the 1st person PC mods to what R* delivered, you will see the gulf in what is possible.

With this leak obviously delaying things, maybe we can expect it for the PS7 launch?

And it's a public holiday today for Rockstar Leeds, Rockstar North (Scotland) and Rockstar London.

That will delay it (checks calculator) by about 30 minutes.

(Edit after doing some more analysis I now think it delays it by about half a day although I don't see how that is possible)

That's the expected outcome. By 2030.

Only if R* decides to use it as an excuse I reckon. There is no logical reason really ( I don't think the code which is visible is of much use, unless it's a very bad luck and something big is there).

I think people are suggesting that if their source code has been leaked, then they may need to take steps to protect/rework it to safeguard it.
Otherwise things like GTA Online might be more easily hacked in the future - which essentially threatens their revenue stream.
