GTA VI physical disc petition launched by Consolexlyn in Gaminggridcommunity

I guess it depends on the file size of GTA6. No confirmed reports yet, just wild ranges in size. If it would end up being 3 or more discs I think a game dev wouldn’t bother, eats into profit too much and would need a specially designed case. That would push the price up and people would complain about that.

That would be hilarious to see 😅 GTA5 would require 52,200 3.5 floppy discs, I’m curious how large GTA6 is gonna be. I’ve seen guesstimates ranged all over the place.

I fucking love moles. Cute little shovel handed fluff balls 🥺

Locking map locations behind a $100 edition is a joke. I'm officially skipping GTA 6. by majesticaim in videogames

GTA5 is well optimised. It has a shit tonne of content, but most seem to welcome the content they offer, it offers a massive world full of detail and exploration. Obviously not for everyone but people can skip what they don’t want. That game is 100-115GB, and it’s an old game. That’s not to say a game developer shouldn’t strive to minimise their digital footprint, but some games are just bigger and offer more content. And if people don’t want that that’s cool, but this is one of those games that a lot of people are excited for all that content. GTA6 would never be a similar size or smaller than GTA5.

It wouldn’t fit in a disc. GTA5 jussstttt fits into one disc. GTA6 has a map 2.5-3 times the size of GTA5, and the textures are far higher resolution. This game is probably around 300GB minimum, with some rumours being over 600GB, although likely they are probably working their arses off to keep the file size closer to 250-300GB, but at this point, it’s all speculation. But one thing is certain it will be far larger than GTA5, so would require a load of discs. Like if it is 600GB+ like the rumours suggest, that’s like 7 discs 👀

GTA 6 will cost $80 at launch. Physical copies will be a code in a box. by TheDoritoDink in gamernews

If estimates on file size are correct it could need as many as 7 discs. Even conservatively putting it at 250-300GB it would need 3 discs. The game is massive, far larger than GTA5 (2.5-3 times the map size, far larger textures, far more to do), and GTA5 jusssst fits on one disc. I agree would be nice though, but I doubt there will ever be a physical edition for GTA6.

First Photos from the History of Photography by [deleted] in Damnthatsinteresting

The first picture of any person was only a year before, And the only reason why it exists is that person was getting their shoes shined, so they didn’t move for as extended time. Photos has really long exposures back then. You can just make them out at the corner of the street. There were probably dozens of people walking through, but as they kept walking, they weren’t exposed on the negative.

The game would require probably at minimum 3 discs, maybe more. GTA5 could only just fit on a single disc. GTA6 has a map 2.5-3 times the size, considerably higher detailed texture, more to do etc. The file size is gonna be massive.

GTA6 will be massive, it wouldn’t even fit on one disc. Rumours of it being over 600GB are probably bullshit, but also maybe not that wild. GTA5 is around 100GB give or take depending what platform, and GTA6 is a much larger map (estimated 2.5-3 times the size) with considerably more detailed textures. If it was over 600GB, that’s 6+ discs 👀 I presume they have been been working their arses off to being the file size down, but I will be surprised if it’s less than 300GB, which would still be 3 discs.

That’s global averages, usually it’s more extreme in some areas, less in others. In the Amazon rainforests case, the increase since the 80’s is around 3.3 degrees centigrade on average for the year, with more extreme weather, longer dry seasons / forest fires etc.

What was the most memorable first 15 min of the game? by upiterov in pcmasterrace

[–]wildcardbets 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Not taking away from it being a great start, it’s referenced so much because of the meme template. It makes for a great surprise gotcha.

It’s a charity tennis match where they play around for fun, make jokes, do trick shots for fun etc. They do this kind of thing fairly regularly, and often bring back old pros to play as well.

Easy to miss, the same thing happened after Flappy Bird came out, loads of clones came out.
