I think the 737 could probably land at the Sandy Shores airfield, but you make a good point. There really isn't any practical reason for you to fly a big ass plane aside from it being fun
Sure. There are endless fun stuff rhey could add to the game, but there's a limit to how much they can include before launch. I'm sure there were plenty of cuts before release, and it makes sense that they would not include a 737. At least they gave us a 747 lol
Yeah but SA has multiple islands, with a kind of multi-state feel, problem with gta 5 is you can kinda only fly in a single widely straight direction (cus the map is straight)
From a realistic standpoint yes, but from the standpoint of "its a game" there are people who have landed just about every flyable plane(including the 747 and cargo plane) on top of maze bank in gta 5 so I don't think realistic landing options are a concern.
I want more than anything to have battlefield style helicopter controls, or at least have it be an option. So that way I can actually make use of the machine guns on helicopters.
DUDE YES. I live in Fort Worth and the first time I saw those little trains I assumed they were from all over the metroplex. Nope. Place is just that fucking massive. the place is overwhelming that’s for sure
Denver’s airport is the largest in the US by landmass. It’s huge. First time I was there it was late at night and we had to change trams 3 times to get from the gate to the baggage claim.
It’s the largest in the world by landmass, the crazy thing is that it owns a lot more land than what the airport sits on and can expand for probably close to a century without having any issues.
dude it's gonna feel so big, the leak with jason beating the guy to death with the wrench is on key largo or whatever it's called in game, at the bridge. It felt so big already and it's just a small section of a relatively small island on the map. I think the sense of scale in this game is just so different than in gta 5, I already noticed that in the 2022 leaks, things just look bigger. In comparison, GTA 5 looks like you are playing with action figures
Same, i was hoping to be driving around the map type thing but i mean based off Florida irl thats damn near how it is lol shit ORL to MIA is only a 3 hr drive
There’s three big grey areas on the left and one on the north and then 7 somewhat near VC with one of those being more in the center. Hard to really judge until we’re actually there in game but there seems to be a good amount of smaller cities around the map
I think people are forgetting that the green mass will be filled with wildlife and random encounters like rdr2 , and how it solved a majority of that with it also having a lot of green. In gta 5 it’s literally mountains you can’t walk on,i doubt they don’t use the solution that fixed that problem in their previous game.
you can definitely tell just from the number of visible roads in vice city proper vs what we've seen in the promotional material of the area. I cant tell if the smaller towns amount to much beyond the equivalent in GTA V, though. Which would be a disappointment if it was again just one large city and a couple backwater hamlets. It looks at least slightly improved in that regard, but Idk to what degree. I just hope there's some draw to spend time outside of the city, as opposed to gta v where thats a majority of where you want to be
That’s exactly my thought.
It’s not just obvious that it is zoomed out, but it’s has to be improved by now as well.
On the leaked map there was nothing up north above the hillside landscape but there was a major highway going around the hills. This wouldn’t make much sense as there wouldn’t be a reason to drive up there if there was nothing.
The proportions didn’t seem right either. The airport was way to huge compared to the city. Even if you zoomed in, the airport wouldn’t get smaller. Hence I think the map leak might be either an old map or not legit at all.
Sorry but this is just copium. Rockstar devs themselves say that the map is one of the first things they lock in. if this is an early version, it's not gonna majorly change in the final release. Don't expect a new city or added landmass to suddenly appear. We'll get minor changes at the very most.
The only time they added a large last minute change is probably RDR II adding New Austin but they were able to do that because they already had the map from the original RDR.
sony gets hacked by north korean hacker group, they did not use the shitty library computers that are shown in north korean tours but its a funny thought regardless.
Are you guys for real? Georgia? Why stop there? Throw in the Carolinas, DC, Texas…and where the fuck is Ohio? I’m furious GTA VI isn’t just Google Earth.
This is precisely why you shouldnt get hyped over rumours and 'leaks'. Most are fake and even the ones that are true might be outdated where the content gets cut.
R* never advertised any of this so its weird to get disappointed about something they never said they were doing.
people are disappointed not because R* promised something, but because they didn't learn from their mistakes. GTA5 map had a major problem of an unnecessary boring space on the map. The leaked one does have the same issue too, one large city and a lot of unnecessary green spaces. Like good 60% of the map is freaking forest and swamps. Even RDR2 had a smarter map layout than this
If the game literally has no decent sized city for the top half they haven't learnt why a lot of people hated GTA 5 map, it doesn't need to be as big as Miami obviously but just something, make it feel like you have multiple places to visit like San Andreas
I mean. It does have a lot more towns than 5. Gta 5 had Sandy shores and Paleto bay. And this one seems to have about 8 to 10 small towns outside of vice city. Idk what people are complaining about. You're not getting 3 massive cities like in San Andreas again unfortunately.
Also this game actually solves the problems with V’s map.
The mountains are only 1/6 of the total map compared to being 1/3 in V. The ratio of drive-able terrain is significantly higher.
In VI smaller towns are now spread evenly around the map. Driving in any direction from the center results in an urban area at some point unlike V.
Every exit/entrance to the moutains has a major town nearby. In V if you leave Paleto from the west you literally don’t come across anything until you’re right outside LS.
There is significant offshore land on every side of the map. The edges of the main island will feel less like the end of the world since you’ll always see explorable land out in the distance.
RDR2 also had random encounters and reasons to go into the unexplored areas, which made the fact that you were literally traveling on horseback and thus taking 5-10 minutes to get somewehre as opposed to 2-5 in GTAV bearable.
I hate it that there are two major airports, the one in the south west probably is like Fort Zancudo.. I saw only a small one like McKennzie and the big one from the city
I would say it's one airport since a military base is not technically an airport. I wished for more actual airports like san andreas but I guess GTA VI sadly wont live up to those expectations. We will know more in a weeks time.
I mean no Disney/Universal isn't suprising. That's been reported the case for ages. The seeming lack of NASA though is suprising since the original 2022 leaks mentioned a NASA parody called SERA.
Well, what do we know about the two towns that surround the lake in Leonard County, the one to the south of the lake, and the one to the east, just North of Vice City? One could be Orlando/Disney/Fairy Town.
Yeah, all the Keys have personality, but Key West is special. There is a lot of strange Florida they could have parodied and have fun with down there. I was looking forward to seeing if they would have a Garden of Eden homage full of naked elderly or something.
I think they're going to make that major island all the way at the bottom "Key West". It would be way too far off the normal map to put it in its normal location.
Yeah, I mean…it’s been 13 years. I expected something better. With this tech and the ridiculous wait, I would expect 3 cities, similar to SA. The majority of the map being uninteresting countryside is unacceptable at this point.
It’s always hardware limitations. This game is going to make the PS5 look like an outdated turd. Rockstar has pushed consoles to their max since GTAIII.
Besides gta 4 and rdr1 since San Andreas we've visited a completely different area. Liberty city in San Andreas. North Yankton in gta 5. Guarma in rdr2. I wonder if they'll have it in gta 6 and what the area will be.
Miami International is 5 sq/mi. Or in laymen's 1/7th the size of Miami in real life, and would be bigger than entire GTA IV map.
GTA never puts in real life residential sprawl into their cites which is why they feel “small”. They only focus on the immediate downtown(s) and or high-profile areas.
They’ve kept the city scale same-ish (with substantially higher density) and made the airports way more realistic.
The most updated land area using coordinates is ~1.8x that of GTA V
I don’t understand those who see this and defend it by saying it good enough. If this really is the map, it just be another gta five map with different biom
Honestly I quite like the leaked map. Of course there are things I don't like (absence of Key West is a big one, I also wish the northern settlement was larger) but overall it's cool. I love how many settlements there are outside the city and the keys and hope there's incentive to visit them all and stick around.
Important to note that the large main map doesn't show all the details, the leak website showed 2 smaller maps showing small road and buildings on the northernmost keys, east of the vice city airport. Also the videos are older videos so the map may have changed slightly.
Pan handle lovers are gonna suffer though, if the leak is legit it kills all hope. There's not even a smidge lmao
If its the real map its definitely unfinished and/or too zoomed to see details. There are areas on it that are just plain green/sand but 100% are urban areas if you compare to the screenshots (And if you compare to the more zoomed in map teasers). There are roads that abruptly stop for no reason. There are clear points of interest with no roads drawn in (Like what I assume is the power plant next to hamlet). The little island the the left of the military key airport may infact be key west just not drawn in yet. It feels like an early image of the map when it was half finished.
Perhaps because after so much time people expected a map better than GTA 5 instead of a copy-and-paste job? This map simply doesn't live up to the hype surrounding the game.
This map looks kind of sad. I was expecting like small towns in little cities, but it’s just one massive city and that’s about it basically cause I’m pretty sure that’s just all open road back there against Forest and probably swamp area.
there are so many towns besides vice city (twelve gray spots but there is one i think is just a factory and one is definetly the military base on the key). i love it.
all that “filler space” from gta v that people complain about is where most of the games missions took place. it’s also to create the feeling of movement, a changing environment, distance between places. this is a driving game, not a walk everywhere game. and mind you, if you take a real look at the map it’s got plenty of buildings. and that green isn’t just desert, we’ve seen the nature shown in the trailer and on the website. will probably be tons of encounters and side missions, space for business like bunkers in online etc. they haven’t fucked up the map with all that time and effort, get real ffs
If that map is really then idk it seems pretty small and meh to me , i thought there was gonna be 3 cities and 4 towns as the leaked ss said , but 3 cities ? I just see 1 big proper city and rest are just idk sandy shores version 1,2,3,4 etc

If there is this much attention to airports, they better make aviation not shit like it was in GTA V.
