Rockstar reps say that Team Vancouver is hard at work, which is good to know; so let's recap
The head of AI at Take-Two says his time with the company has reportedly 'come to an end.'
Rockstar has launched an official marketplace for "every server and every player" to buy mods: Cfx Marketplace.
I wonder how much of this isn't just taken work of others who have modded for free.
Edit: Also, great way for R* to take popular ideas and build them into GTAVI based on demand.
What I see happening here is, R* is going to ban mods in GTA6 UNLESS you buy them from the marketplace and R* then gets a cut of that sale.
Ah, perfect timing with them taking down the Bully online fan mod. Greedy a$$ company.
Yep, right there with you. I'll happily donate to a mod creator if it looks really cool, or if I enjoy it. But expecting payment up front? Nope, not touching it.
I'm not entirely sure how to read this, as it doesn't seem exactly like an exact parallel to Bethesda's paid mods shenanigans.
Rather than single player stuff, this appears to be aimed solely on Cfx Servers. From what I've gleaned, apparently Rockstar bought the Cfx mod team several years ago, coming a few years after weird contentions led them to ban a few of their members. Ultimately, the question is if they plan to keep this contained to only online/servers.
I have to guess to a degree yes. It'd be pretty hard to "force" paid mods for single player when modding files locally on your own machine, but much easier for servers they'll control. So perhaps this is their soft launch ahead of GTA6 online and they'll clamp down more tightly on non-official servers going forward? Ever since they've become a 1 or 2 property studio, I haven't really cared much for Rockstar stuff, so I'm not entirely up on everything surrounding this. Sounds like it has the potential to be problematic further down the line, but right now fairly easy to ignore...I think lol.
Take-Two has hired Perfect Dark studio head Darrell Gallagher and creative director Brian Horton to start a new studio under 2K.
I just can't look at this game the same way after that awful movie...
its been a long time for Max, can't wait for this one.
I really want to grab his facial hair and put it onto his head
That would make him look like the Max I know :)
Hey, the game will take place in my city! Maybe they show some good things about São Paulo, instead of showing only the bad side of it, like it happened to Rio de Janeiro in MW2. But i doubt a game where you have a pissed guy shooting everyone will show something good about the city...
I just wish Remedy was working on it. Why did they have to blow fives years down the drain for Alan Wake? Was it really necessary? Stick to the Max Payne series. I just hate that they turned Max into a homeless meth bum. I want them to stick to New York. Well it might be in New York for a little while. Clearly though we are going to be in South America at one point or another judging by the screen shots. What I don't want to see in this game is MP. MP in a Max Payne game is about as useless as MP for an Assassins Creed game. Seriously, Brotherhood really didn't need the MP. It was just a waste of development time. If they just stick to a SP campaign for MP3. We should see an amazing story,and amazing game play increased 100%.
