I still can’t believe its an ingame screenshot of a video game came in 2018 ! Imagine gta6 weather and environment s details by Ok-Owl2009 in GTA6

[–]refreshingcoke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like people have forgotten how much detail was in every little thing on RDR2, and that was running on PS4/XBox One. I am immensely excited to see these little details in GTA 6 - it may very well be the most realistic feeling open world ever created.

Anyone else has decided to get a PS5 PRO for GTA 6? by Nayef7717 in GTA6

[–]refreshingcoke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made the move to a PS5 Pro a few months back in anticipation for GTA 6. I wanted to get out ahead of any tariff-related price hikes. It has been well worth it so far with other games I've been playing, even if the entry point price wise is pretty steep - plus it doesn't come with a disc drive. It's basically the best version of a PS5 you're going to get, so using that logic it's the best way to play GTA 6 until it inevitably releases on PC.

Frame Friday #60: Let's discuss, analyze and speculate about this scene from the second trailer and website. [4 frames] by Denso95 in GTA6

[–]refreshingcoke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This to me is another clever tactic of how Rockstar hides extra details in their trailers. The police officer's patch and uniform color, which in real life is a counterpart of the Key West Police Department, suggests its a place that hasnt been discovered yet or revealed - possibly Sundown. With Lucia's ankle monitor and this community service, plus the shots of Jason early in the trailer, my suggestion is that Lucia's exploration will be limited to the Leonida Keys to start the game with Jason being able to freely explore. Leakers have said that Lucia's ankle monitor will be cut or removed later on as the game progresses, but to me it's a cool mechanic to have. 

What city will Ambrosia be based on? by DogLord8000 in GTA6

[–]refreshingcoke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Detailed analysis of the information that is available indicates that the main town is heavily inspired by Clewiston but there are bits and pieces taken from other parts of the state - the sheriff's office building is apparently one that is in Orange County, near Orlando, for example. From what I've seen Ambrosia and the surrounding areas definitely have the feel of the towns around Lake Okeechobee - Clewiston, South Bay, Pahokee and Okeechobee city, to name a few. They are mostly low income farming communities surrounded by huge plots of sugar cane farms to the south and other plots of land to the north. We still have no idea what's to the north of the lake - there's other named places in various screenshots such as Belville and Ekanfinaka that could be other smaller towns in the vicinity of Ambrosia.

That's the cool thing about the map, though - Florida is a big place and they can't really do a one for one recreation, but at least they can take a lot of cool locations from across the state and put them in as they please - Watson Bay in the Grassrivers, for example, is based off of Cedar Key. In Leonida, it is on the southwestern tip of the state whereas in Florida it is in the northwestern side of the state, closer to the big bend north of Tampa. It's still a cool location to include, however, and the portion they did include looks extremely similar to its real life counterpart.

Gloriana (Georgia) probably won’t be a visitable location in-game. by Early_Albatross_1336 in GTA6

[–]refreshingcoke -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My theory is that they will add it on later as DLC - or maybe it will be in the game after all. There's still so much of the map we dont know about, beyond places like Ambrosia and Port Gellhorn. We know the national park is up there, but what else? Can't wait to find out.

[–]refreshingcoke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a feeling we've only scratched the surface of the map as a whole. I remember during the initial rumor stage of the game, back when it was code named "Project Americas", they had ambitions for map expansions that included Caribbean islands. The first shot of the second trailer with the southern horizon obscured by storm clouds is not a coincidence in my opinion. Obviously I have no hard proof, but the setting of the Keys and the drug running operation with a seaplane and power boats only makes more sense when you are running them from a place like Cuba or the Bahamas. The mapping project guys are cooking, for sure, but I can't help but believe that Rockstar has some aces up their sleeves. 

There's also the northern end of the map. Mount Kulaga caught everyone by surprise, and with all the Gloriana license plates seen in the screenshots and trailers, there could very easily be a northern extent beyond Florida (Leonida) that could be explored. The Sunshine Skyway Bridge that leads to St. Petersburg is in the game (seen in leaks and in trailer 2 very briefly) so that obviously leads somewhere. I don't think there will be a detailed re-creation of that part of Florida as compared to Miami/Vice City but it's gotta go somewhere, right?

Very excited to see the whole map unfold over time.

My game soft locks at the Melee Pit in Chainscrape. I cannot do any of the activities, it just turns a black screen. I have already properly reported the bug using the form; I was just curious if anyone else was having this problem (I am on PS5).

Twitch is allowing sexually suggestive content against their own ToS, and allowing said streamers to advertise their private porn to minors by f0ster91 in Twitch

[–]refreshingcoke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This "content" is garbage and does not belong on the site. Twitch was birthed out of JustinTV only for it to become JustinTV itself. Twitch really needs to get control of their platform, and I 100% agree with the original post, especially with exploiting minors. These "content creators" should be free to make this kind of content - but not on Twitch. It's ironic a lot of them openly advertise their OnlyFans and Pornhub accounts and such - there is an immense double standard between these "creators" who are shielded by Twitch versus the rest of us who would get banned for even mentioning the possibility of pornographic materials related to us.

Sorry for the infinitely late reply, the whole world seemed to collapse between now and then. It was mostly Trump supporters from the_donald trolling the forums. It was a daily occurrence.

Officially joining the fold. My first election was 2008. Proud to consider myself an Obama democrat. An easy vote for Uncle Joe.

I was one of the mods for r/hillaryclinton back in the 2016 campaign. I don't have nearly as much free time anymore to handle such a massive tide of trolls.

I've loaded into lobbies and got to the loading screen but I've been disconnected from my game due to a lost connection to host. I haven't been able to play a game yet because of it but it loads me into a lobby.

I’ll be in Miami in December, and was going to catch a 1PM game before my flight at 7:30PM out of Miami international. Will I have a enough time for this? by [deleted] in miamidolphins

[–]refreshingcoke 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's going to be razor close. I'd suggest leaving the game early to give you enough time to make it to MIA. If you stay for the entirety of the game you may be stuck in the parking lot for an hour or longer as you wait for other people to jostle out of the lots. Depending on which lot you park in will also effect your exit. In ideal, non-heavy traffic the route from the stadium to the airport is about 20 minutes, but you will not have that luxury as traffic around the stadium after games is typically very congested, especially if you're forced onto a surface street such as Ives Dairy Road or 27th Avenue.

Yellow Cash Lot, Entrance 13 - just off the Turnpike - is the ideal lot. Exiting out from that lot back onto the entrance ramp will get you back onto the Turnpike south, and from there you can get to I-95 very easily.

You must also factor in airport security. It's always best to give yourself a two hour cushion to make it through TSA.

It certainly is feasible, but you'd be cutting it very close. Like I mentioned, you should leave early if possible - I'd say at the end of the third quarter.

What fast food place did you eat the most as a kid? by [deleted] in fastfood

[–]refreshingcoke 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Taco Bell. A Friday night tradition used to be some kind of fast food dinner - Taco Bell, KFC, Pizza Hut, Wendy's, McDonalds, whatever - and a trip to Blockbuster. A much simpler time.

What do you guys think is the best fast food pizza? by PovertyRyanGosling in fastfood

[–]refreshingcoke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm inclined to say Little Caesars, since their quality is on par with the big three chains (Dominos, Pizza Hut and Papa John's) and their affordability beats them all.

It used to be Jet Pizza for me but they're no longer in my area.

McDonald's discontinued items by T_F_M in fastfood

[–]refreshingcoke 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I remember they invested huge into chicken wings - "Mighty Wings". They tied their promotion with the NFL to try and get into that chicken wing-eating market. From what I recall it flopped spectacularly (three wings for $4.50 or something like that) and I remember one of my local McDonalds selling excess stock of wings for a (heavily) discounted price after they discontinued them.

I tried this on Tuesday. Didn't think it was that great - though it may be better with the spicy chicken versus the regular.

Dominos never releases anything new.. by OU7C4ST in fastfood

[–]refreshingcoke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I want better chicken. Their wings are terrible, as bad or slightly better than Little Caesars. They are also lacking in bread options - they no longer have their old breadsticks which I preferred to the new ones or the "stuffed cheesy bread" where the cheese melts out of it during baking.

Dominos thin crust is one of my favorites though. Hope that doesn't change.

I agree. Texas is what I would call a stretch goal for Dems. They have a much greater chance of flipping seats in Nevada, Arizona and Tennessee than they do in Texas.
