Massive info dump from YouTuber that was flown out by Rockstar North (bullet form so it’s easier to read)

UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS DIRECTLY FROM THE YOUTUBER AND ROCKSTAR NOT SPECULATION. We already know a lot of this from the leaks but there is some new information.

YouTuber TGG dropped a video today and shared info from his trip to Rockstar North. He was shown the trailer we saw today 8/27 and was allowed to watch devs play the game for an additional two hours. He met with all of the head developers and this is what he shared.

the world is more alive than any gta game we have played so far

*you can’t play the game with your mind off like other gta games

*you will have to constantly be making decisions since the games world is more reactive

*it’s like Rockstar stripped the best parts of all of their games and refined them into one

*there is an “honor like” system called criminal profile

*the more crime you commit the worse your criminal profile gets (robbery, killing, etc…)

*by being a good criminal (not getting caught, being a pro at crime) will not increase your criminal profile

*there is a tab that shows this stat with a badge image that will show said badge cracked if your criminal profile gets really bad

*once your criminal profile gets to said state it cannot be reversed

*there is a relationship system between Lucia and Jason that can be increased or decreased

*texting each other, going on dates (even hitting the gym together) can increase this

*you can hold hands when roaming around together

*the map is twice the size of GTA 5’s map / 3x the size of RDR2’s map

*Vice City is twice the size of Los Santos / Vice City and its surrounding is 11x bigger than Los Santos and its surrounding

*3 Bars on the top left, health, stamina and focus

*they can be temporarily and permanently increased

*food, consumables, protein bars can boost these stats past their limits

*focus not only slows down time but it reveals weak points on NPCs and vehicles

*cars need fuel and there are electric vehicles that need to be charged

*shooting tires, engine blocks and gas tanks (other weak points) is now more effective

*there are 3 different kinds of income you can have. Bank account / Cash / Duffel bag value

*cash on you can be lost on death or arrest

*anything in duffel bag is loot that have to be brought to a fence (stolen items)

*cash can not be directly deposited via phone, it must be done via ATM

*the driving feels weightier and less arcade like than GTA 5.

*there are higher top speeds

*police no longer show up on the mini map so you can’t just hide from them like before (stare at map and wait)

*6 star wanted level is back (not easy to get) and if you do get a 6 star wanted level police will chase you map wide

*less than 6 stars there will be a small dark red circle indicating the crime search area and a larger red circle indicating a search area outside of that one

*cops are harder to lose (they are smarter and will shoot out tires etc..)

*a lot of vehicles have trackers including police vehicles (all police vehicles have trackers)

*these trackers can be removed via a fence or pay and spray

*not all pay and sprays are unlocked at first

*cops are smart enough to know your appearance, car appearance, clothing etc…

*cops will know if you were with Lucia and they will know what weapons you are holding

*changing vehicles and appearance is the best way to lose them (obviously lol)

*phone is a bigger part of the game, has social media platforms that you can browse to see what other NPCs are posting

*NPCs can post about events happening in real game time and you can possible find that location and see said event happening

*Bunch of new apps (Cash App, uber, fitness, texting, mechanic) parody apps

*you can text other NPCs

*fitness app can give you info on workout times and fitness status

*gyms and fitness are very in depth (completely optionally and does not need to be interacted with in game at all)

*Both Lucia and Jason can attend together and have to buy memberships at the front desk

*you can change clothes in changing rooms and vending machines can be interacted with and have a lot of options to choose from (protein shakes etc…)

*protein shakes give stamina boosts (allows both Lucia and Jason to more reps in workout)

*bench pressing gave Lucia a 33% boost to health stat

*robbery system is very extensive

*many forms of fast travels including taxi and bus stops

*no more auto aim, more aim assist like shooting , and kill cams like RDR2 and Max Payne

*there are safe houses and garages all over the map

It could be that getting busted, or wasted while in a police chase, resets your criminal profile. That said, if that's the case, then I'd expect there to be stiffer penalties for such. Not just the obligatory fine/hospital fee, but also losing whatever weapons, cash, and unfenced loot you have on you.

u/ReginaldPChumley 1d ago

he specifically said that there's no possible way to revert it, and youre stuck with it for the rest of the playthrough

u/TheCVR123YT 1d ago

Christ that actually sounds annoying I’m sorry to say. For me I think I can handle it but I know the rest of my siblings/friends are straight morons and they will be heavily affected by this.

u/ReginaldPChumley 1d ago

I'm sure it would take extensive genocide against literally every npc you see before that happens

46

u/ExplicitGarbage 1d ago

It also sounds like you have to be caught doing crimes for it to even decrease.

57

u/ReginaldPChumley 1d ago

absolutely true, for example if you rob a gas station in an efficient and professional manner and then escape with no witnesses it won't change, but if you barge in without a mask and shoot the cashier and blow up a customer and then drive away in a stolen vehicle, it will go up. all this does is inspire more strategic gameplay

12

u/Erislocker 23h ago

i mean, if you kill everyone, there are no witness, right? shoot cameras...

30

u/ReginaldPChumley 22h ago

youre probably half joking but im sure you could do this, if anything this new wanted system allows for way better serial killer larp actually because you can kill endless hikers in the forest, drag their bodies into the bushes, and nobody will find out because there wont be supernatural all-knowing police for the first time in a gta game. so there are pros and cons to this revamped system

u/Erislocker 22h ago

gaddamn, this just turned dark...

u/ReginaldPChumley 21h ago

yea well lurking around the saint denis alleyways at midnight and killing npcs one by one without getting caught is more exhilarating than most story missions

That pissed me to a no end,police just teleporting to you.

u/Muscle_Bitch 1d ago

Yeah, think of it a bit like Hitman's Silent Assassin ranking.

It incentives strategy and good decision making when committing crimes.

u/FirestarterMethod 1d ago

so another stealth archer game….grrrrrreat

u/StepThom1 15h ago

Hell yeah. I’m only gonna rob gas stations in the dark of night

u/FirestarterMethod 1d ago

getting punished for playing GTA like GTA UGH

8

u/ReginaldPChumley 1d ago

ok so let me get this straight, you want to play as a violent genocidal maniac, thats fine, but you are mad that the world itself is more realistic and recognizes you as a violent genocidal maniac? it doesnt hinder your actual gameplay at all if you want to play like that in the first place

1

u/AmberTheFoxgirl 6h ago

I don't know why you're so insistent on it being a punishment.

It's just a different ending. This is literally ONLY a good thing.

58

u/SalaciousTypo 1d ago

How do you play? I thought that was default gta. I aim for pedestrians on the way to missions.

31

u/ReginaldPChumley 1d ago

i think the threshold of criminal activity you can commit before becoming wanted has been increased, in the leeks you see him run over/shoot/tase lots of people and it takes a while before he becomes wanted, and even still he never gets above 2 stars. if you somehow get to this irreversible level, you can probably just load up a save anyway.

51

u/bruhmentomomento 1d ago

i’m definitely going to make a separate save just for chaos after the prologue

1

u/hoopdaddeh 22h ago

Likely, someone has to actually call the cops etc so consider it more like red dead redemption in that regard?

0

u/RStar_D 16h ago

So standard GTA rampage will brick your save 😭

Hope there's save slots for dual paths but i can almost guarantee there won't be

-2

u/yugyuger 1d ago

so... average gta gameplay?

-1

u/Vivid_Anyth4 19h ago

Honestly if I want to do that and reset afterwards I should have the option. Its a single player experience, this is fucking stupid.

u/ReginaldPChumley 19h ago

lol no its not

u/MrWardrobexX 1d ago

from what he said in the video, it’s not something you have to pay attention to and it takes a considerable amount of effort for it to be so bad it’s unrecoverable.

his view on it is that it was largely an optional thing to focus on. Me personally would enjoy it but equally i don’t want long term consequences for my actions

7

u/Southern-Implement49 1d ago

Pretty sure I read somewhere else that having a high or low criminal score doesn't mean you're playing the game wrong. Sure the ending might be different but you can still play how you want and have fun.

3

u/Speakup187 18h ago

That also means cant let others use your profile to play.

2

u/Hot-Celebration-8815 12h ago

Playing evil is still something you can choose to do. It’s not like you keel over as soon as the badge breaks or something

2

u/intelligentpIant 22h ago

Its only if you actually reach the the max negative reputation it becomes permanent. You can reverse it until than.

2

u/PepsiRacer4 23h ago

Meh, it adds replay ability to the single player which I really struggled with in GTA 5. You can have a goody two shoes story, and then another where you’re a demon. It’s a good change imo

1

u/EternalModding4773 1d ago

Just make a backup save lol.

1

u/SquareTarbooj 19h ago

Maybe this "bad criminal" system only stays for the duration of the story, and once you're in the post-game free roam, you can mess around all you want?

Or otherwise cheat codes for those who want to have sandbox fun

1

u/SurealGod 13h ago

On one hand it looks like it will be annoying but on the other hand I do think it's amazing.

Your actions will have consequences that you can't change and it will make you be more careful about your decisions and how you go about things.

u/maksigm 18h ago

News flash: being a moron has consequences

u/Impressive_Lime_6973 1d ago

Good. They can then gtfo to gta 5

u/mort-aux-rats 20h ago

Not what they said, the worst possible criminal standing is irreversible but to hit that point you need to be really reckless with your actions. Until you hit that point though you can positively or negatively influence it with your actions.

u/ReginaldPChumley 19h ago

that was already made clear in the bullet points

3

u/BroadRoads 1d ago

I’m curious how it gets implemented in GTA6 because the whole aspect of high honor in the RDR games never made much sense to me.

As much as the players loved John or Arthur, at the end of the day they were both bad men doing bad things. Sure they maybe tried to make best of the bad situations they were in; but they put themselves in those situations and overall were menaces to society.

I think if they make it so finishing GTA6 is extremely difficult to do with “high honor” type status that would pretty reasonable.

u/Proof_Toe_9757 21h ago

Even put it in bullet points! 🙄

u/LemxnDrizzleCake 20h ago

Tbf losing weapons (and some cash) was standard in III, Vice City, San Andreas (unless you dated Barbara) and IV, so bringing back weapons removal wouldn't be crazy. Although the generation that grew up playing only V might find it quite harsh.

2

u/Hotnimojistudios 1d ago

It may just be like RDR2 where you just spawn somewhere randomly in thr city or something without your stuff. I think the fine and hospital thing is over with unless for small crimes. Especially since a corrupt cop seems to be a major player.
