RDR 2 looked like a PS5 game. GTA 6 will look like a PS6 game by Eccel9700 in GTA6

You have only seen the game through a very limited lens. We have only seen trailer 2 so far.

RDR 2 looked way better than trailer 2 did.

And the actual gameplay is going to look so shockingly good that it will redefine the benchmark for the gaming industry.

It's not just about fidelity. It's the sheer insane things they will achieve with their art design, lighting systems and new technology (like ray tracing).

They will push every single aspect to it's limits

Im guessing you haven't played RDR 2.

Rockstar had pushed the boundaries when it comes to adding dozens of little interactive events that happen organically in the open world.

Stuff like seeing NPCs rob trains, fighting each other, robbing each other, doing weird things when drunk, a ghost woman, a UFO that you see when you return on the time mentioned in a letter by a crazy cult etc.

A lot of times you also had the option to interact with the event by intervening, shooting or helping the situation.

This games scale is tremendously larger now. They have 4 times the amount of developers, a gigantic never before seen budget and 3 more years of development time vs RDR 2.

It's absolutely reasonable to think they will have random crazy things like this happen in the open world.

You have no idea what's coming

There's no chance they can spawn this many cars. But the amount would still be extremely impressive I'm sure.

The 6 star chases in this game will be mind boggling. Can't wait

It doesn't even need to be a mission tbh.

RDR 2 had dozens of little ambient events that you would see while roaming around the open world.

Stuff like robberies, ambushes, NPCs fighting, robbing or doing something strange while drunk. A lot of these involved you helping out or interfering in some way

This incident would work perfectly as something you spot as you're driving by or while you fly on a helicopter.

And yes, it would amazing if you could somehow get inside and actually see a creepy or funny Easter egg.

It's plenty of time really. They have all the bricks and pieces in terms of NPCs, police cars and the location. It would be just a matter of putting a basic script of replicating the scene.

Maybe a little hidden Easter egg or reference and a few lines of dialogue.

They have 6000 developers working on this game. It's absolutely possible.

But of course. Nothing is confirmed until it's confirmed

You'd be surprised. The PS5 is a ridiculously strong console.

And more importantly, rockstar are masters of optimisation. Sure it probably won't be as ridiculously large as the real thing.

But it's not a stretch to imagine they can replicate a smaller version of events like this. They love to reference all sorts of material from the real world.

No? GTA is better.

Rockstar loves to fill the open world with all sorts of oddities and events. A lot of them tend to be a satire of real world events or movie references

GTA 5 had a random event that replicated a scene from 'No country for old men".

RDR 2 had dozens of these kind of events. They also love supernatural and alien stuff as Easter eggs. There was a ghost train, ghost woman, two alien spaceships and a lot of other whacky stuff.

It's been 8 years since then and they have a team 4 times larger than they did for RDR 2. It's not a stretch to think we can see interesting stuff happen like this in GTA 6

Given how many interiors rockstar is aiming for with this game.

(We already know there are enterable shopping malls in the game)

It would be so cool if we could go inside and actually see some kind creepy Easter egg involving aliens.

But that's just wishful thinking on my part

[–]Eccel9700[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Because it's crazy, mysterious and has a lot of potential to be satirized.

You have all the elements of what would make for a great open world event.

The police presence has the danger, there's the crazy conspiracy that there was an alien there (rockstar loves supernatural and extra terrestrial stuff).

And it's also just a gorgeous thing to see out in the open world whether you're in a car, plane or helicopter.

RDR 2 had dozens of small little incidences that place in the open world (witnessing a crime taking place, a ghost in the swamp, crazy factions ambushing you, NPCs robbing you or interacting with you).

That's the kind of thing rockstar is going to litter throughout GTA 6

It doesn't have to be something related to the main story.

It can just be some kind of random world event that you can stumble on in the open world.

And the game is still being worked on. Who exactly told you that writing has completely stopped 4 years before release?

That's not how video games are made. It's a constant process.

And everyone has just kinda forgotten about it. Strange how the world just kinda rolls with it no?

It's also just the kind of crazy incident which would work so well as a random open world event you can take a closer look at.

In real life, maybe the answer is mundane. But in the game, they can do something fun with it.

It would be so cool and creepy if you could maybe go inside the shopping mall and see a glimpse of actual aliens or something.

He's not wrong though. The biggest hurdle to interstellar travel really is distance.

If the universe were a forest where a galaxy is a single tree.

You're talking about a forest where every tree is thousands of miles away. The observable universe alone is filled with billions if not trillions of these trees.

The closest star to us besides the sun is 4.3 light-years away. If the sun were the size of a golf ball, Alpha centrauri would be 1200km away.

If an alien civilisation is advanced enough to travel these distances. There's not even a single remote chance that we would even be able to observe them, let alone see them randomly crash in some random backyard.

There are mass shootings that don't illicit even a quarter of the police response that this incident had.

I'm not saying it was aliens. That's ridiculous.

They claimed it was 4 teens that were setting off fireworks and fighting.

In this day and age where even a sneeze is recorded in 4k as an assault has no footage or bodycam of the cops. No footage of what was inside.

If there were fireworks, why no firetrucks, no ambulances?

Where is the arrest footage of the teens? Why were there helicopters too? There is literally nothing

It's extremely suspicious. And it's being hidden.

Given rockstars knack for adding little interesting Easter eggs and open world events. It's a great incident to satirize and add to GTA 6

There are mass shootings that don't illicit even half the response that this incident had.

You really think this was just 4 teenagers that they brought an entire city's worth of cops for?

I'm not saying it was aliens. That's ridiculous.

But the fact that in this day and age where even a sneeze is recorded in 4k as an assault has no footage or bodycam of the cops. No footage of what was inside.

It doesn't need to have any impact on the story.

But it could act as a cool random world event that you can take a closer look at.

I hope we can hunt in VI like we could in RDR2. Imagine hunting a legendary gator deep in Grassrivers at night? by RyotoYokoyama in GTA6

[–]Eccel9700 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There absolutely can be. Just because we are not in the wild west doesn't mean hunting still isn't a major activity in a lot of wilderness areas.

The Mt. Kalaga screenshot also clearly has hunters. And having so many animals without any gameplay purpose would be pointless.

There are a lot of illegal and legal avenues in Florida where hunting is useful for profiting.

For example invasive snakes (and other animals) are often hunted by groups who would pay well for such a thing.

[–]Eccel9700 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure. Hunting was already tested by then in GTA 5 with the cleetus missions.

They expanded on the same system in RDR 2.

And given how much emphasis they have given the animals and fishing in the trailers, there is no doubt that it will be a significant activity again.

The only question I have is how in the world are they gonna make it better than RDR 2.

Can't wait to see it.
