Damn that’s a booty.

 

[Aaron Olive]

GTA with responsive controls?

RDR2 improved maybe?

 

[TVexperto]

Is that a United Arab Emirates flag? Aren’t UAE extremely strict when it comes to hacking and cybercrimes?

does he seriously use protonmail? i heard they are not that secure and love to give out customer information when requested

 

[Black_Stride]

It is a shame that this is not AT LEAST RDR2 level.

RDR2 was not RDR2 level at this point in its development either.

You see why devs dont like showing games early.
People say well we know its not final just show us whats going on.
Yet here we are, on a supposed hardcore gamer forum with posters talking about the graphics of a game thats far far from complete.

I work in Cyber Security, and the initial claim is a hacker, with that, here is what's going on.

- Everyone at Rockstar is shocked and completely dismayed and frankly stunned, its Sunday AM here in the US, and the hack happened overnight. Even the most immediate reactions to this may not come for a few hours. The person that files the DMCA has to wake up and process all of this. Working on a Sunday? Fuck you thanks for the crunch dick.
- This is a legal security incident. There is a good chance that Rockstar tells employees that they can't touch anything for 24 hours up to two weeks. They are going to have to hire an outside firm to take a snapshot of the current layout and understanding of the environment. They have to involve law enforcement and it's essentially like a crime scene. It varies how long this could take depending on how disaster ready they are.
- Once they establish what happened they are going to implement new workflows to prevent it from happening again. Like, let's say their cloud storage was hacked. They might even need to move to another host/vendor. Could be petabytes of data and everyone may have to learn the new workflows. Or their desktops were hacked, they may need to install new protection on thousands of desktops before people can start working again. If this was someone from the India team posting the data online after being fired, or showing off to be cool, they could move the game to another studio.

If this costs them 1 month of Dev time we are lucky and we should be playing GTA6 sometime between the fall of 23 and the spring of 24. Don't forget when this happened to CDPR they started over on CyberPunk and it cost them pretty much everything. Including launching CyberPunk in the middle of the worst global pandemic in 100 years.

I don't have a read on any code that was shown in the videos but if Rockstar feels like it will compromise the integrity of the game or GTA Online they may be forced to scrap all of this code. Which is what CDPR did.

Thanks for posting.

I didn’t realise CDPR started over. If that happens for GTA I’ll be fucking gutted, even though I’m not that hyped for it. Realistically we’re looking at a 6/7 year piece of work for GTA 6. A complete reboot would mean we’d be looking at a 2029 release

Never liked a GTA , yeah maybe 1 and 2 over the school network

Awesome huh and CDPR got shit for Cyberpunk, and that’s how the world works !

 

[ManaByte]

If the GTA5 source code is out, that means GTO is basically dead now right? The level of hacks on that will make it unplayable.

I know it's an early build but I'm still disappointed

 

[saintjules]

 

[Rocco Schiavone]

What is Uber??

 

[sinnergy]

I know it's an early build but I'm still disappointed

and that’s why they don’t show it People who don’t have enough knowledge of how videogames are made , can’t objectively look at this material and understand this is not the final product.

 

[hemo memo]

What is Uber??

A fancy taxi company that hire anyone with a car and a license.

 

[John Wick]

This is obviously early builds but watch page after page complaining how shit it looks. Gaf never fail. This is Rockstar I think they know how to make gameworlds better than any clowns on here.

 

[ReBurn]

According to Jason Scheier, they do, and the company is in chaos.

Why would the company be in chaos? This is just going to make people want it more.

 

[captainnapalm]

Not really worth it if it's going to lead to a delay of the game. Hopefully not.

Pretty sure Rockstar isn't going to say anything about this. They never talk about their games.

[Bernd Lauert]

Because normies don't know what alpha footage means. Also leaked source code has huge security implications.

 

[Physiognomonics]

FFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU it's gonna be on PS4

Look at the good news. At least there will be a 60fps mode on PS5/XSX.

They didnt start over. What they redesigned was they IT security. As far as i remember they said the Cyberpunk code was outdated and not what the current build was using. The hacker actually got the source code of Cyberpunk, Witcher 3 and Gwent. And tried to ransomware CDPR that gave him the middle finger, after that the hacker put all the source codes up for auction.

 

[ReBurn]

It's the other way around. Poor network security leads to source code being stolen. They're spending money to find and fix security flaws for sure. But I imagine development is moving forward as it was before the leak.

"Chaos" is probably a bit hyperbolic.

 

[Klik]

I hope its not cross-gen

 

[AJUMP23]

I'm not sure if this is supposed to be sarcastic or not but this isnt officially released footage, its been leaked.

Says who. Looks like in game footage.

 

[Caio]

and that’s why they don’t show it People who don’t have enough knowledge of how videogames are made , can’t objectively look at this material and understand this is not the final product.

Exactly. Leaks from an early build can lead to disappointment from very casual gamers or the ones without enough knowledge.

 

[Tomi]

I hope its not cross-gen

It is

 

[JayK47]

Looks worse than Saints Row. They have lots of work to do.

 

[Represent.]

character models looking pretty insane for this stage of development to be real. game will be a looker.

shame about cross gen because thats holding back the actual design.

 

[Slothbeing1209]

Everything is pointing to this being legit now. DMCAs have all but confirmed it.

Yeah i know. Just saying that I'm not even mad even if this is fake.

 

[Klik]

It is

Cool. Crossgen games in 2023.. Lets keep Jaguar CPU and HDD till 2028 for fck sake..

 

[El Pistolero]

Footage of the game being leaked at this stage is no big deal, imo...The hacker having access to the source code, however, is not good news for Rockstar...

 

[hemo memo]

Cool. Crossgen games in 2023.. Lets keep Jaguar CPU and HDD till 2028 for fck sake..

Our only hope is PS6/SeriesX2 when they finally drop that dinosaur hardware.

 

[El Pistolero]

Oh boy!

 

[mortal]

Yeah i know. Just saying that I'm not even mad even if this is fake.

Yea would be a pretty impressive feat. They would have recruitment offers lined up I'd imagine.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

Fascinating. I'm not going to put too much weight in the state of things now nor do I want the entire game spoiled.

Hopefully they can tighten things upand avoid more leaks.

 

[Jennings]

Hopefully GTA 7 takes less time to develop and they can beat hackers and leakers to the punch by releasing a game before official footage is reported on by the media and Take-Two is forced to sue journalists again.

 

[tusharngf]

I hope its not cross-gen

most footage is from PC and ps4 build

 

[CuteFaceJay]

The animations looked pretty fucking good during the robbing of the café

 

[Sleepwalker]

He’s sharing source code as people ask. Everything will get leaked at this point.

Hahaha which page is this? I've been looking but realistically not going to read 130+ pages over there

 

[Gudji]

Why does she walk like she has to take a poop?

 

[Elder Legend]

If I'm reading this right the leaks came from a PS4 devkit ?

I wonder how old this is and if there is a PS4 version on the cards now as well.

Where did leaker state it's using ps4 devkits? Best case scenario they used old devkits to start prototyping/concepting and then moved to the ps5/xboxseriesx devkits. Releasing in 2024 or 2025 for ps4 would make no sense. The ps4 has been officially discontinued in terms of production too ane by 2024 the install base for current gen systems will be huge.

 

[D A R K]

banking on R\* being afraid to legitimise these leaks by DMCA'ing them.

 

[dr_octagon]

GTA 5 re-re-released on PS3, PS4, PS5 and Samsung smart fridges.

Now GTA 6 will be cross gen?

Not thicc enough. Cyberpunk did it better, see Panam.
