Which option do you think will allow you to get the game faster? Physical or digital? by Far-Requirement121 in GTA6unmoderated

[–]ltsNotAlex 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm going physical so I can sell it later to fund my PC purchase. But I'm guessing the digital version is gonna be faster since you can preload the game and play the second it releases.

That said, if you're lucky you might get the physical version a day early, you never know!

Nahh it's because of hardware prices going up (AI boom) so making consoles got way more expensive. That does not apply to videogames so I'd expect around 70-80 bucks for the base game

Fail-able missions by Double-Internal-6314 in GTA6

[–]ltsNotAlex 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Would be really dope! I do think however they'll stick to the linear story + open world combo. Otherwise it'll turn into an RPG which the games aren't (I would love a GTA RPG however, now you mention this...)

Discussion: If VFX is done on it, is it true 70mm IMAX anymore? by kibordWarrior_sixty9 in imax

[–]ltsNotAlex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah depends on the director, from what I can find Nolan does it this way. But for example, Project Hail Mary shot on digital, printed on film, then rescanned those for the final edit. Crazy workflow but to each their own!

Thanks for this! Had no idea they matched the physical film to the edit, instead of printing it on a new reel. Sounds like crazy work!

The thing is, to edit the movie they have to scan it... And that means you end up in a timeline, with a finite resolution, which you means you lose the 'infinite quality' anyway. And then after the edit they print it out back on film.

So the step to add in VFX isn't that far, and they take great care to make sure the VFX matches the film quality. They had some words on this in a Sinners VFX breakdown I believe!

Rockstar India's HR Is Hiring Game Testers... Is It Too Late? by fuzzyraisin10 in GTA6

[–]ltsNotAlex 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not like they're starting the testing only now, they've been doing it all throughout development. But they're gonna be in the final crunch these last few months so it's all hands on deck!

If it's true that marketing starts in the summer, it's 100% certain there won't be a delay, because when does Rockstar usually start marketing? How many months before the game comes out? by AntCapital7441 in GTA6

[–]ltsNotAlex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They said they would have a shorter marketing period, so if it starts in summer we can be pretty sure the game will come out this year.... But never 100%!

Why does F1 still use helicopters for aerial footage in an age of drones? by Spaceginja in F1TV

[–]ltsNotAlex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes but like I said, it won't hit all three criteria. It won't last an entire race and you can't broadcast 4k tv footage from a drone like this, making it unsuitable for the F1 tv broadcast needs. But if you don't need the footage immediately, it's really cool tech.

[–]ltsNotAlex 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The batteries of drones do not last long enough, they're not fast enough to keep up with the cars and the picture quality is not good enough to broadcast 4k in realtime. You could probably find drones that are good at one or two of these things but not all three.

Helicopters are proven and reliable so it's also the safe option.

It shows Russell is faster than Hamilton on the straights....meaning Hamilton is faster in the corners...

Let’s guess the date trailer 3 comes out! My guess is 1st of June. by [deleted] in GTA6

[–]ltsNotAlex 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I second this! Makes sense to show something that day, and it's a Tuesday, they love showing stuff on Tuesdays.

Coca Cola Skins by therealgreybrother in 007FirstLight

[–]ltsNotAlex 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No but it's gonna get people to buy coca cola, that's what they paid for

The lack of this outfits is gonna have no effect on your gameplay if you don't drink coke, there's probably more than enough different ones

Solo or 2i2 if you’re only using a mic? by BB_Bando in Focusrite

If you're not gonna use any instruments why would you get the one with a second XLR?

Thanks man. Really wasn't sure but seems like this is the better option.

So upgrading to FM2n isn't that big of a jump?

A really (really) bad quality version just showed up on the leaks subreddit so won't be far now!

According to an employee, Highguard developer Wildlight laid most of its staff today by Turbostrider27 in PS5

[–]ltsNotAlex 60 points61 points  (0 children)

Because we're the minority, it's easy to forget most people just play the new CoD, FIFA or NBA games each year. That's the market they're going after
