gnomesaiyan, do games w GTA 6 will have a 'significant online mode' to generate revenue for years into the future
@gnomesaiyan@lemmy.world avatar

I’m fucking done with Rockstar after GTA5. Took a great franchise and fucking ruined it with online mode. One of my first sessions ended up with a hacker teleporting everyone to a single location on the map and dropping millions on everyone.

Also, I can’t play Vice City (still my favorite) on PC without the Social Club bullshit or downloading a cracked version (I gave up on pirated software), despite it being a single player game. Just another company I’m happy to boycott forever.

granolabar,

Yeah the connection check is idiotic. Won't be buying

I bet it won't be as good, you can't have proper satire under the current censorship schemes ran by the owner class.

Esp in light of recent events, parasites will be insecure for a long time

nutbutter,

You should try playing Vice City on a PS2 emulator. Connect your emulator with retroachievements.org and try to get all the achievements. If you can find a legit PS2 copy, it won’t be piracy.

That’s a good wisdom! I still have my original PS2 disc packed away, but I’d have to get a DVD drive for my PC (I haven’t had one for years). They’re cheap enough, and I’ve got a few other games as well. Thanks!

reseller_pledge609,

If you’ve got a legit copy then just download a copy and run that on the emulator, no DVD drive needed.

It’s not piracy, it’s a backup.

DarkThoughts,

Just download an image if you have a legit copy.

Sylvartas,

I only ever bought RDR2 from them, which is still bringing me a lot of enjoyment, and after seeing how they squandered RDR online for the heinous crime of not printing money fast enough, I don’t think I’ll be buying anything from them for the foreseeable future.

echodot,

That’s my big problem with the online mode as well. They could have actually made it fun but it’s totally unplayable because they don’t do anything about hackers while at the same time even by legitimate means giving players access to fucking sci-fi death machines.

I’m so sick of spawning in and instantly getting blown up by a flying motorcycle with infinite rockets. That’s not even fun gameplay for the person the flying motorcycle.

Lemme guess: microtransactions next?

GTA 6 will be the last one this century.

Oh joy. What an important cultural contribution that will be.

We all figured that. The question is will there be any additional single player content.

That’s not a headline. That’s like the science community releasing a headline that Earth has been confirmed to be an oxygen rich environment.

Confirming obvious things is still important. Everyone knows a PS6 will exist but it’ll be huge news when it’s official

@acosmichippo@lemmy.world avatar

this is not huge news.

To me this is more like, the playstation 6 will have online connectivity.

echodot,

Well technically we’ve had it confirmed all the way up to the PS9. Which presumably will release alongside somehow the Xbox X because Microsoft can’t name a product to save their life

Kelly,

The source the Tweektown article is quoting also says:

Anticipation is so high that some competing game publishers are waiting as long as possible to commit to their release dates for the fall, according to people familiar with their deliberations who asked not to be identified because they weren’t authorized to speak publicly. The publishers want to see whether GTA 6 will make its deadline or slip into 2026, these people say, and they’re determined to keep their own games far, far away.

bloomberg.com/…/-gta-6-release-date-will-decide-m…

This is probably more interesting, that some upcoming games which don’t have release dates may be waiting for this before they commit to a schedule is somewhat noteworthy.

oxideseven,

Oh good this is here, I don’t have to post it.

Will the netcode be as crappy as in the original GTA Online? Sources say yes.

proti,

GTA Online was/is peer to peer. Imagine a world where they chose to have dedicated lobby servers…

deranger,

When you say peer to peer, does this mean every player communicates with every other player, or does one person act as the “server”?

Ghoelian,

I believe one person acts as the host. That’s why sometimes it’ll kick you out of a session and start loading again, that means the host has left and someone else needs to take over.

This looks insanely good.

How these go Linux? Vroom or doom?

thedeadwalking4242,

I believe vroom, intel usually has good Linux support even having their own optimized distribution

Edit: it may have trouble with older titles

rickyrigatoni,

I love playing older titles…

I just bought an a750 honestly I’m loving it. So far I’ve only had issues in Skyrim with the shadows, and vermintide 2.

Sick. I got an a770le when they launched. Buggy AF, but not bad performance when it decided to work. It currently lives as a dedicated av1 encoder in a Plex server

If this turns out to be a solid performer, the price could make it the best midrange value since AMD’s Polaris (RX 480). Let’s hope Intel’s build quality has improved since the A770.

I can’t wait for these to be EOLed due to the exec shakeup.

golli,

Isn’t this the same architecture that is also in their iGPUs? That should help keep them motivated to improve drivers even if they lose interest in dGPUs.
