GTA 6 Not Before 2025, Reimagines Vice City
Don't hold your breath for Grand Theft Auto 6, as the game won't be out before 2025, reports Tom Henderson. Timelines for development of the next GTA was pushed this far back possibly because the extensive amount of voice-over and motion-capture work that goes into the game, and playtesting the game, probably aren't easy in the wake of travel restrictions. The Cyberpunk 2077 launch, which was disastrous form a quality-assurance standpoint, possibly spooked Rockstar, which wants to take its own sweet time getting GTA 6 right.
A third factor could be the increased scrutiny from gamers on studios that crunch (overwork their employees to meet release dates), Rockstar was accused of crunching during the development of Red Dead Redemption 2. In related news, GTA 6 will reportedly be based around a modern-day rendition of Vice City, from the title that springboarded GTA to the top of the open-world action adventure genre. It is also rumored to have Fortnite-like evolving maps, which gives players the feel of a world that changes with time like a city in real life, would (new infrastructure and businesses).

:D :D :D
Anyways my controls setup made me rather good, that when Battlefield Bad company 2 released, the heli's were child's play to adopt, as I just had to bring that experience over. Everyone wanted me as the pilot, I just got annoyed as they couldn't hit shit while I was avoiding everything. lol
I think the big problem for people, is that they didn't understand, to make the helicopter fly as you should, you need 8 buttons to master the collective pitch control, throttle control, antitorque control, and cyclic pitch control.
Anyways, rambling over, signing off, for now... :P
The MP5 and MAC-10 in that game sounds weird Its has a dead, depressing atmosphere to it, it feels and looks lifeless, but i do like the game play and physics in that game overall
On top of that, technology keeps moving forward. So they keep having to port/redo some of their work each generation they miss. They released only one game on the Xbox (At least new and AAA) One and PS4 over the consoles lifespan, thats pretty ridiculous considering how big the company is and the past releases.
As for GTA6 haha well who didn't know it would be at least 2025 or later anyways, they making tons of money with what they have now and they will need to get all the crap in for the multiplayer too which will take them years.
For the record, I did like some of the ideas of that system (Having the freedom to date, make better friends that help you, etc). However, it was set way to aggressive.
I thought we would get at least 1 GTA per console cycle personally.
