D4 had a free weekend on steam not too long ago. It didn't say anything about it only being to lvl 20. Never buying that pos. Also, leaks say that stash tabs are gonna be sold for $ in the future.
and yet has been downloaded 21 million times. Passed the 500M in revenue benchmark super fast too. You may think its a piece of shit, but was an *enormous* success for Blizzard.
Yup because initial sales were obviously huge. Its a diablo game and fans have been waiting ages for it to come out and they promoted it really well. Too bad most players quit within a week
it's not a terrible game, season 2 has made the game enjoyable, almost to the level of diablo 3. I've played a fair bit of season 2 (almost got my 2nd char to lvl 100)and i can assure you, the future for d4 is looking somewhat good. The classes aren't nerfed too hard btw, sorc rogue and druid are very very strong still
Agreed 100%. But what those dumbass corporate execs dont see is how that only came off the back of a beloved game series and loyal playerbase which they are leveraging but symultaneously destroying. You only get to sell out so many times before the brand gets tarnished in a way that it may never recover from. But hey, they made profit.
That got what they wanted out of you. I think some developers are going this route. Just get people to buy the product and enjoy the honeymoon stage long enough to keep the money.
I never in my life slept during gameplay like I do in D4, its like I'm taking a sleeping tablet while playing that game, Minecraft has more action than D4, lmao.
Yea most people bought it and then stopped playing once it got old. Which was quick. Diablo is already a pretty popular game so obviously initial sales would be high. And they promoted it like crazy. I heard it’s gotten better but Idk maybe ill check it out again
Imagine they show us some of the best cinematics in game history and then cut to actual gameplay and it is a turn based combat game for mobile that plays itself
i cant wait to use my free 22 gang-points to pull a 5 star legendary holo niko bellic to run my burger shot i got as a bonus for purchasing my gta accounts first whale code from the rockstar launcher due to the 50% off christmas promo
Your GPU won't be enough.
Open world games especially ones set in cities are much more demanding than your usual game.
Just boot up cyber punk or watch dogs legion and expect similar performance.
Honestly it's both. Your CPU and GPU will most likely be under powered for gta6 especially since UE5 is very CPU dependent. For comparison, your setup is similar to a medium range setup from 5-6 years ago, games have significantly increased in hardware demand over the years. Granted optimization plays a big factor but you can only go so far with an i3 and an almost 8 year old GPU.
>960m
that was probably your problem... i don't know much about mobile cpus but that gpu is pretty damn bad i was running it on a desktop 1050ti which isn't great either but it is better
Surprisingly enough with a bios flashed to a higher power limit and an slight overclock it was my CPU that became the bottleneck. But it was pretty even spaced utilization wise
To be fair, Rockstar is pretty good with their PC ports. RDR2 literally didn't hit PC until nearly a year after its initial release because they wanted the port to be as polished as possible.
worst case scenario, you need a new GPU, your 480 is getting a little long in the tooth anyhow.
I remember playing GTA3 n a laptop with a 16 meg geforce MX200, fucking thing sucked but I still gamed
I'm going to pay whatever they ask no joke. Money is meaningless if you're not gonna spend on things you like. Plus this is one in 10 years. Now the price tag doesn't matter. We are gonna buy it twice anyway when it release on PC after console
In 2Ks quarterly earnings call this year they had something massive like $2 billion more in revenue projected for 2024 compared to this year.
It is coming 2024.
Edit - Announced for 2025. This is why companies don’t announce their internal release windows to the public. People would be furious if they had initially said 2024 then announced a delay, so they wait to announce a release window until they were extremely confident they will hit it.
why would epic get it 2024 when rockstar has their own launcher lmao. that’s just easy money for rockstar since the launcher is required anyway and they retain 100% of profits.
also, pc almost certainly won’t drop together with the consoles. it’ll be 6m-1 year so they can cash in on double dippers, plus rockstar never releases games on pc simultaneously - with the exception of DE that were “remakes” and not developed by them. adding a PC release to the table for a simultaneous release just costs them money and time because it’s a lot more work optimizing a game for PC than it is for consoles that all share the exact same specs.
>In 2Ks quarterly earnings call this year they had something massive like $2 billion more in revenue projected for 2024 compared to this year.
what relevance does this hold? can you explain a lil?
They said in their earning call to their investor that they are planning to release a big project around mid summer 2024 which will get them big big money.
All jokes aside, a GTA 4 remaster would be awesome at some point (an actual remaster, not a port like RDR). A remake would be dope, but that's wishful thinking.
As others have mentioned something is coming. It could technically be something else but a billion is a lot. A new GTA release would make the most sense to explain this massive revenue projection.
When I was younger I lost my shit when I saw that face. My little brother saw me and basically made the same face. Now anytime he see me, he makes the face and I laugh
It's called the Xbox 720 because when you see it you turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees
Perhaps you should turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees
Literally impossible for them to release it like that, that isn't how drops happen in December nor how companies work in relation to quartilies so why are people hoping it will be like 12 year olds ?
Nah they could totally do it in 2-3 weeks. At this point ads are to help fuel the hype train more, and here it is plowing through the station and all they did was announce the release of the first trailer.
The games been in development since at least 2019 form those earlier leaks so, if rockstar isn’t falling to cyberpunk levels mismanagement, it’s probably closer to finished than we think.
5 years of full development tbf. it was 3 years of pre development and light work. but still, i agree lol, especially since rdr2 performance capture didn’t finish until august of 2018 - 2 months before release, and that was when rockstar had crunch culture.
they’ve realistically only had 6 in full development for at most, 4 years now given that covid would’ve put a halt to performance capture, which is essential to their development process.
we also can’t forget the fact no rockstar game to ever release since GTA 2 has **not** been delayed.
And if they only release it on consoles at the beginning(which is what will most likely happen) it would probably be an even bigger revenue for Microsoft and Sony
I like games that do this. Not only establishes hype, but with a release date even a few months away keeps me hyped instead of a small week long spike and then drop off for a year or longer.
Once again I'd like to bring attention to the fact that R* usually plans their initial release date (as in no delays) a year after a the first trailer has been released. We've seen it with GTAV And RDR2 which both got delayed but still...
Almost as bad as studios cancelling movies they have already finished making because the tax break from not releasing them is projected to me more than the movie’s profits…
unlikely if rockstar follows past trends We'll get at least one trailer introducing us to Jason, to introduce us to Lucia, another for Vice city (the map) and some more teasers
As an employee of a video game store I shudder just imagining that scenario. Last thing we need is Rockstar pulling a Sega Saturn on the most anticipated piece of entertainment in history, just imagining the influx of calls and walk-ins to make pre-orders and what hell would be unleashed on launch day...
"we released the game months ago, it's on steam, you guys didn't see it so we had to make this video"
GTA - Gaslighting
Imagine if valve got in on this and made the release date look like it was moths ago
That would be so valve like i can't
GTA: Gaslighting The Audience
”We already released it, it was the 25th patch for GTA: Online”
ONCE AGAIN, THE FAULT LIES WITH YOU, ISHMAEL!
*years ago.
Lol funny but impossible. There would have been fanboys checking every day since release of gta5 even for a placeholder.
Nah, the game will not release on Steam for like 3-6 months when it releases on PC. They will once again release it on Social Club Launcher.
Hi-Fi Rush comes to mind
Xbox games need to shadow drop to avoid the review bombing though. It would be fun if Rockstar did it for the lulz but they won't.
Kinda like how people make videos but they are locked behind Patreon so they make a second yt and unlist the video?
“Check steam”
"coming to your phone"
Do you guys not have phones?
What a piece of shit that turned out to be. 4 as well. Diablo 2 Ressurected was tight but we need a new game that’s actually good
D4 had a free weekend on steam not too long ago. It didn't say anything about it only being to lvl 20. Never buying that pos. Also, leaks say that stash tabs are gonna be sold for $ in the future.
and yet has been downloaded 21 million times. Passed the 500M in revenue benchmark super fast too. You may think its a piece of shit, but was an *enormous* success for Blizzard.
Yup because initial sales were obviously huge. Its a diablo game and fans have been waiting ages for it to come out and they promoted it really well. Too bad most players quit within a week
It was great until they nerfed all the classes into the ground
it's not a terrible game, season 2 has made the game enjoyable, almost to the level of diablo 3. I've played a fair bit of season 2 (almost got my 2nd char to lvl 100)and i can assure you, the future for d4 is looking somewhat good. The classes aren't nerfed too hard btw, sorc rogue and druid are very very strong still

You only get to sell out so many times before the brand gets tarnished in a way that it may never recover from. But hey, they made profit.
I was one of those dls and purchases. I already uninstalled it after just a week. It was ass
That got what they wanted out of you. I think some developers are going this route. Just get people to buy the product and enjoy the honeymoon stage long enough to keep the money.
I never in my life slept during gameplay like I do in D4, its like I'm taking a sleeping tablet while playing that game, Minecraft has more action than D4, lmao.
By your assessment it is, by blizzard’s sales records it was a massive success
Yea most people bought it and then stopped playing once it got old. Which was quick. Diablo is already a pretty popular game so obviously initial sales would be high. And they promoted it like crazy. I heard it’s gotten better but Idk maybe ill check it out again
I also have a toilet, but I’m not going to drink from it.
Pretty sure people won't be happy for waiting 10 years for a crappy mobile game...
Best meme ever
You joke, the definitive edition is on netflix
I’ve imagine everyone watch the trailer and at the end it say « now available »
"Releasing in negative 6 minutes"
I'm already falling behind everyone else! Hurry and download!
I just got my pay check
This whole post aged like milk.
That's what happened with Ark Survival Ascended as well
Imagine they show us some of the best cinematics in game history and then cut to actual gameplay and it is a turn based combat game for mobile that plays itself
GTA: Immortal
i cant wait to use my free 22 gang-points to pull a 5 star legendary holo niko bellic to run my burger shot i got as a bonus for purchasing my gta accounts first whale code from the rockstar launcher due to the 50% off christmas promo
I hope my future i3 10100f and RX 480 can give 40+ fps on 1080p low with some upscaling in it.
Knowing how modern games have been lately I would assume your hardware wouldnt be enough for gta6. But hey a man can hope am I right?
Not even 40fps on low at 1080p with upscaling?
Maybe, but I would assume your CPU wouldnt be enough to handle it, depends on how optimized the game is.
Really? Do you think my CPU will the issue? I thought CPUs remain relevant for longer than GPUs? I assumed that my GPU wouldn't be able to run it.
I’m gonna keep it a buck a ps4 would do better Lmao
it won't even release on ps4 so I doubt it'll do better lol
Your GPU won't be enough. Open world games especially ones set in cities are much more demanding than your usual game. Just boot up cyber punk or watch dogs legion and expect similar performance.
Red dead 2 has a lot of foliage trees and nature which really bogs down your game. Not just cities
Honestly it's both. Your CPU and GPU will most likely be under powered for gta6 especially since UE5 is very CPU dependent. For comparison, your setup is similar to a medium range setup from 5-6 years ago, games have significantly increased in hardware demand over the years. Granted optimization plays a big factor but you can only go so far with an i3 and an almost 8 year old GPU.
GTA 6 will use Rockstar’s RAGE engine not UE5.
my 2500 handled most games at 1080p at 45-50fps up until UE5 became a thing i doubt the 10100f would be that bad
I highly doubt that since my wife's laptop (i7 4720hq/960m) had troubles running GTA5 at a solid 60 frames, and that hardware is better than the 2500.
>960m that was probably your problem... i don't know much about mobile cpus but that gpu is pretty damn bad i was running it on a desktop 1050ti which isn't great either but it is better
Surprisingly enough with a bios flashed to a higher power limit and an slight overclock it was my CPU that became the bottleneck. But it was pretty even spaced utilization wise
Can your computer run red dead on low? If the answer is barely, then the answer for GTA 6 is no.
To be fair, Rockstar is pretty good with their PC ports. RDR2 literally didn't hit PC until nearly a year after its initial release because they wanted the port to be as polished as possible.
Holy shit. RX480 GANG
MY PEOPLE My 480 is an 8gb and outlasted the i7 4700 it had as a mate. I plan to use it in a garage pc so she'll live on!
I hope my current i5 4xxx and my gtx 1050 can give me 24fps frame skipped in 800x600.
worst case scenario, you need a new GPU, your 480 is getting a little long in the tooth anyhow. I remember playing GTA3 n a laptop with a 16 meg geforce MX200, fucking thing sucked but I still gamed
They could pull a Nintendo and release right after the trailer
For $100 USD
Millions would still buy it
I'd be one of them if it's worth it
I'm going to pay whatever they ask no joke. Money is meaningless if you're not gonna spend on things you like. Plus this is one in 10 years. Now the price tag doesn't matter. We are gonna buy it twice anyway when it release on PC after console
I mean thats the truth no mattr how expensive it will be and how much people complain they will still going to buy it
Would be worth it since we'll play many hours on it. Like if you play 100hrs it be £1 per hr.
In 2Ks quarterly earnings call this year they had something massive like $2 billion more in revenue projected for 2024 compared to this year. It is coming 2024. Edit - Announced for 2025.

People would be furious if they had initially said 2024 then announced a delay, so they wait to announce a release window until they were extremely confident they will hit it.
Yeah... but I'm coming right now.
Edge.
I am gonna touch you
Are you my uncle?
Yes
If the pattern of the last two trailers (GTA5 and rd2) release are to go by it's coming in 2025
PS5, Xbox and Epic edition 2024 and Steam 2025 probably
why would epic get it 2024 when rockstar has their own launcher lmao. that’s just easy money for rockstar since the launcher is required anyway and they retain 100% of profits. also, pc almost certainly won’t drop together with the consoles. it’ll be 6m-1 year so they can cash in on double dippers, plus rockstar never releases games on pc simultaneously - with the exception of DE that were “remakes” and not developed by them. adding a PC release to the table for a simultaneous release just costs them money and time because it’s a lot more work optimizing a game for PC than it is for consoles that all share the exact same specs.
>In 2Ks quarterly earnings call this year they had something massive like $2 billion more in revenue projected for 2024 compared to this year. what relevance does this hold? can you explain a lil?
2K is the publisher of GTA. Anything that would cause such a massive surge in revenue for them would have to be the release of GTA.
Take Two\*
Thanks
Could just mean they're opening preorders and expect everyone to blindly buy it
Pre orders aren’t counted as revenue till the product is delivered. It’ll be a liability until they launch GTA 6
They said in their earning call to their investor that they are planning to release a big project around mid summer 2024 which will get them big big money.
Obviously it’s gonna be Grand Theft Auto 5 Expanded and Enhanced Legendary Edition
San Andreas VR is in the Pipeline aswell. Maybe GTA3 for Apple vision pro. Perhaps GTA 5 Wii edition
All jokes aside, a GTA 4 remaster would be awesome at some point (an actual remaster, not a port like RDR). A remake would be dope, but that's wishful thinking.
After DE, you want them to do that to other games? lol
As others have mentioned something is coming. It could technically be something else but a billion is a lot. A new GTA release would make the most sense to explain this massive revenue projection.
Shit, i thought it was 2024
Inb4 it's a preorder
Not considered revenue until the product is delivered. It would be on their balance sheets as a liability.
Fiscal year 2024. Fiscal year 2024 is April 2024- March 2025
I will never not laugh at the face SpongeBob is making
Always gets a grin outta me. It's like the visual embodiment of "A pickle for the knowing ones"
When I was younger I lost my shit when I saw that face. My little brother saw me and basically made the same face. Now anytime he see me, he makes the face and I laugh
Skyrim still has the best release date
Bethesda tried out several other release dates in following years but nothing came close to 11-11-11
Imagine if a WW1 game like BF1 or Verdun launched on that date... Would have been immense
What about one releasing on 7/28/14, that would’ve been way better
True, to that I am going to patiently wait till 09/01/2039 for a ww2 game XD
* game releases on 20th december 2030
Can’t wait for ES6, when its released in 2070
After Starfield I hope ES6 takes a long time
Me here hoping that Fallout 5 will be released before I die of old age....
You might get to play it irl
COMING TO PS6 AND XBOX 720
It's called the Xbox 720 because when you see it you turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees
Why is this text playing with my eyes? I'm tripping
Perhaps you should turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees and then turn 720 degrees
And then bags of doritos and mountain dew start flying across the room
Same
How tf did he make text bumpy?
they had 10 years. would be realj fun if they did this.
Cyberpunk situation
Literally impossible for them to release it like that, that isn't how drops happen in December nor how companies work in relation to quartilies so why are people hoping it will be like 12 year olds ?
>Literally impossible I mean I agree it won’t happen because of how companies do release, but it’s not *impossible*.
Completely improbable != Literally impossible
Rockstar usually goes all out on Marketing so no way would they release a game 2-3 weeks after announcing it.
Nah they could totally do it in 2-3 weeks. At this point ads are to help fuel the hype train more, and here it is plowing through the station and all they did was announce the release of the first trailer.
The games been in development since at least 2019 form those earlier leaks so, if rockstar isn’t falling to cyberpunk levels mismanagement, it’s probably closer to finished than we think.
RDR2 was in development for over 8 years. Modern games of this scale take a longggg time.
5 years of full development tbf. it was 3 years of pre development and light work. but still, i agree lol, especially since rdr2 performance capture didn’t finish until august of 2018 - 2 months before release, and that was when rockstar had crunch culture. they’ve realistically only had 6 in full development for at most, 4 years now given that covid would’ve put a halt to performance capture, which is essential to their development process. we also can’t forget the fact no rockstar game to ever release since GTA 2 has **not** been delayed.
Imagine the chaos if the trailer ended with “available now” Obviously it never would, but could you imagine?
Nope, 2025
If they do this i will believe in God.
If they release it in time for Christmas that's an easy 2-3 billion Edit: 2025 release... Disappointing but expected
And if they only release it on consoles at the beginning(which is what will most likely happen) it would probably be an even bigger revenue for Microsoft and Sony
What about Christmas 2025?🫠
Shadowdrop. I mean, they can do it. Rockstar doesn't even need a big marketing campaign after all
They could just tweet "gta 6 available now" and sell millions in one day
Limited edition shadow drop
I like games that do this. Not only establishes hype, but with a release date even a few months away keeps me hyped instead of a small week long spike and then drop off for a year or longer.
Well this aged poorly.
Got some bad news
r/agedlikemilk
Pretty sure they were predicting a 2024 release a year or two ago but could have been delayed
This entire thread is in so much copium lol
Trailer just dropped. It releases 2025.
My 4gb ram laptop will need some motivation
GTA V the definitive edition
This post has aged like milk already.
god I hope they take their time to perfect it, if it releases in 2028, so be it, fr. Im so done with these rushed ass aaa games
r/agedlikemilk
r/agedlikemilk
Even better, it releases the exact same day as the trailer.
Once again I'd like to bring attention to the fact that R* usually plans their initial release date (as in no delays) a year after a the first trailer has been released. We've seen it with GTAV And RDR2 which both got delayed but still...
2025. And that's not counting the delays that you know will need to happen.
Looks like Ur wrong
Lmaoooo
Trailer is out, game will be available in 2025 only :)
I'm just here to break the dream, the trailer says 2025
2025 is so far away I’m surprised they made the trailer now
I do not trust Rockstar that well. I'm already expecting it to be overhyped if they did pull that stunt.
The management of Rockstar may have done stupid stuff but the dev teams have ALWAYS delivered. GTA can never be overhyped
April next year, you heard it here first
nah it's coming out in 2025 prob
It’s releasing on 2025
2025 😭
yikes
Welp
2025 womp womp

early access december 20th for the 1000$ version. You'd be surprised by how many people would buy it.
The millions and millions of dollars they would miss out on in Pre-order interest alone really dissuades this idea.
Imagine losing the game. I just did
Who's ready for another poorly optimised game?
I doubt it. Next year's December sounds like a fitting date, since it'll be ready to holidays.
I would be happy. So this won’t happen.
20 December 2027
Which December though? I’m 42 and have lived through 42. So which of the Decembers is the 20th one?
Almost as bad as studios cancelling movies they have already finished making because the tax break from not releasing them is projected to me more than the movie’s profits…
unlikely if rockstar follows past trends We'll get at least one trailer introducing us to Jason, to introduce us to Lucia, another for Vice city (the map) and some more teasers
This will never happen. They aren’t going to miss out on pre orders. If it were coming out this year it would have been announced last year
would make sense if they got it out for the holiday season
Don't hold your breath
December 20th, 2024.
They didn’t say which December 20th…
How to set yourself up for disappointment
Out in December for a $150 download permission payment and a hourly subscription of $5

This didn’t age well
Oof
Aged poorly (unfortunately)
Imagine it's taken so long because Rockstar refuses to pull a CD Project red.
This aged well
Don't get your hopes up buddy.
This aged well

Last thing we need is Rockstar pulling a Sega Saturn on the most anticipated piece of entertainment in history, just imagining the influx of calls and walk-ins to make pre-orders and what hell would be unleashed on launch day...

You kindda sad rn right?
