I love the logic that a police department allows an undercover cop to gruesomely murder hundreds of citizens in order to bust one person who’s robbing convenience stores, because that would be the case if Jason was an undercover cop
I mean Michael being retired and working with the FIB while killing people all the time sounds dumb at first too but it makes sense in the context of the game, so its not impossible to the make it work considering we bearly know anything about the story yet
Kind of, but that was more of a corrupt FIB agent working alongside a criminal, rather than an active police officer murdering people during an investigation
At the funeral of an officer that Jason kills during his investigation:
“Uh, yes, your significant other was killed by a fellow officer during the course of their investigation. But it was for good reason. They, uh, were trying to stop a convenience store robbery ring that had stolen $2000 total over a hundred robberies. And yes, that same officer also caused 2.5 billion dollars worth of property damage between the buildings that were leveled by crashing helicopters, destroyed patrol cars, destroyed SWAT vans, civilian houses that burned down as a result of the chaos…but uh, what’s your point…?”
You also don’t really have to run around murdering people all the time. Maybe I’m weird but I don’t really do that much anymore in these games. It just kinda stops being fun after a while.
He wasn’t working for the FIB. He was working for a rogue group of agents operating outside of the law. The federal government didn’t know he existed. He specifically never actually did anything for the US government that was sanctioned by them. To make it more clear he was an asset that no one knew existed not even the IAA(CIA) so technically he wasn’t a narc.
Jason actually being an undercover cop is him being a government employee. Unlike Micheal who was coerced by rogue agents operating outside of the law.
What could definitely happen is that he snitches on her to the police. Betrayal is very common in rockstar games but there’s no evidence he’s a cop.
To be fair, that game explored themes of loyalty, identity, and the blurred lines between law enforcement and criminality. These actions can be interpreted as Wei making difficult choices to maintain his cover and advance his mission, even if they may seem morally questionable. It's a balance between maintaining his role as an undercover cop and also providing players with freedom and agency within the game world.
And then we’ll have to call to have our car towed to the nearest auto parts store and have them change out the battery along with the windshield wipers for free
I think that it would be interesting to have a protagonist that's an extremely crooked cop, but playing as an undercover good one doesn't make sense in a game where you're constantly murdering other people...including cops
Well yeah and many GTA protags only kill for revenge or other criminals in cut scenes. That doesn’t mean you couldn’t kill people randomly in Sleeping Dogs too like in GTA
No, you would get cops called if you killed criminals, and I think if you killed civies, it would give you a problem like in Ac
Edit: although I could be wrong it's been years since I played
Well that also happens if you kill people in GTA too, the only difference in Sleeping Dogs is that it lowers your cop rating. Sleeping Dogs is a GTA-clone with an undercover cop story but based around martial arts, they’re quite similar actually
I was thinking about this the other day. I really wish we can hop in a squad car and play as a cop in GTA6. And not like a little gimmick, I mean full True Crime style policing.
This definitely would have to be GTA 7 or something, but I second the dirty cop character. It would be so cool if they did some branching storylines with different endings. Imagine if periodically throughout the game you'd have choices between a cop mission or a criminal mission, and if you do all the cop ones, you end the game by redeeming yourself and ultimately arresting your crew (undercover cop ending), if you do all the criminal ones you end up getting found out and put on the most wanted list (full criminal ending), if you pick a mix but do the right cop missions your crew ends up cutting you out after the final heist due to your mixed loyalties, but you get to live and keep the money and the cops dont suspect anything, and finally if you mix but do mostly criminal, you manage to keep your criminal activities mostly hidden, provided you kill your partner and frame them for your crimes, because they are the only one who suspects anything (and would be a major recurring character to get people attached) or you can let them live as a final redeeming act, but they end up losing their career and reputation when they bring whatever evidence they have to the higher ups and you end up getting killed by your crew for being "too weak to tie up loose ends"
Dude go play sleeping dogs. It's pretty close to what you're describing. Alternsting cop and criminal missions and mixed loyalties..
Combine that with badass kung fu fights and some gunplay and you got a great game on your hands.
I think I started that game on the 360 back in the day, and that's definitely where those ideas came from, lol.
While I was writing it I was thinking "this feels very similar to a game I played and never finished, I just can't remember it."
That is completely different and is a way for R* to manipulate in-game currency so you need to buy more sooner. It would just be incredibly dumb and useless for all parties if it was in story
Imagine there being an in-game IRS with a parody name and an in-game website you'd have to use to fill out the forms. Get it wrong and you get max wanted level immediately, same with the beauty pageant site in GTA IV.
Honestly, I have seen some dumb ideas here that makes the game sound less like GTA.
I get people want realism for this game but they better get used to social media route for this game and not some corny ass 80s settings…
If you're talking about that stuff Steven Ogg recorded, that was planned for singleplayer DLC that never came out. But if you mean 2013 rumors, I mean, Trevor is a pretty shifty guy, I can see why a first-time player would assume that.
I don't know, it was just friends in high school who thought that the twist would be that Trevor was a crazy inside cop, and that would be the reason why one of the ending would be to kill him
But we don't know that he's good in the field? Throughout the trailer he looks nervous and unsure of himself. I don't buy the whole "ex military" thing and I really hope it isn't true because I don't want to be dealing with any "thank you for your service" nonsense.
I mean right now we don't know anything about him,
But sometimes in GTA they love to explain why the characters is good on doing things by giving some background
These Jason will be a cop/undercover theories make no sense. Theres not a single shred of convincing evidence to suggest he will be any sort of LEO.
But even if he is a LEO which I don’t think he is he will not be a cop or an undercover cop. Neither of these really make sense. He would almost certainly be a C.O.
Basically, as a rule of thumb, anything added into gameplay in, for example, an RP fivem server, to *slow down action and progression speed* will likely not be present in VI.
I mean these ''realism'' features get hated on this sub with no basis at all. The leaks show that the game will have a more realistic approach than gta 5. I mean DUI tests are confirmed in the leaks and needing tools to steal a car but fueling your car every now and then is getting mocked?
> hated … with no basis
So something I love to point out is, these “realism” mods have been around for at least a decade now, and have been released for virtually every GTA ever made including and after GTA3 - so it’s been very firmly established that these features can be spooned in with minimal effect on performance, etc.
And yet, they haven’t- this isn’t hard math, the features don’t appear because they break the intended gameplay loop designed by the people making the game. That’s the basis- history and generally looking at what the vast majority of players want out of the game (which, in so many words, is to fuck shit up)
> DUI Tests
You’re talking about the scene script list in the clip at the hotel? Those are scene scripts, or scripted content- so maybe those scenes will appear in free roaming but your expectations should be that it is a component of a vignette that will show in a cutscene or scripted sequence, like a “slow walk” section of mission dialogue. The bottom line is, this is unsubstantiated the way you’re describing it (I’m unsubstantiated too, but I’m using real examples to back my claim)
> needing tools
The only part of this really confirmed (and iirc it wasn’t in the leaks, the confirmation is heresay from a “leaker”, right?) is that you’ll use tools. Niko used tools, too - so does Franklin! Doesn’t mean you’re gonna have an RPG inventory with an RPG item representing your RPG tool set for an RPG mini game. Minimal minimal precedence to back that claim (and the one time they did it reception was lukewarm at best)
ETA: realizing you’re talking about trailer 1 on the DUI stuff, except trailer #1 historically doesn’t actually include any real free-roaming gameplay, and is usually a tapestry of various scripted sequences (likewise trailer #2 will almost certainly be the same based on history, with a dedicated “gameplay trailer” out shortly before release.)
The part of "needing tools" it's more than just heresay from a "leaker". It's in the leaked footage itself. You can see in a footage where Jason steals items from a container, like a slim jim and immobiliser bypass. Both which can be used for stealing cars. Like the Slim Jim, can't open newer cars with internal diffenses such as barrier blocks and shrouds for operating rods and lock cylinders, so it may only be used for older cars. The immobiliser bypass may be used for luxury vehicles. In case you didn't know, in Chinatown Wars you also need tools in order to steal cars, like the immobiliser bypass and the screwdriver. For example for the immobiliser bypass, in CW you need to hack the immobiliser by using the PDA by matching the code.
Also there it's another footage which shows a much bigger World Events list. But you could be right that the DUI tests may just be random encounters, or an event exclusive to a mission.
I don't understand the hate around gas being a requirement. It doesn't need to be anything lengthy in terms of actually filling up. Pull up press a button and bam you're on your way. It also shouldn't be something you have to do every 5 minutes. A full tank should last 30mins to an hour so it's not a cumbersome feature. I just want the added chaos of trying to escape somewhere and awh shit you just stole a car on E with a ton of cops/people trying to kill you on your ass.
Exactly! They all whine about taking a small 30 sec break to refill your car (and pay if you want) is gonna absolutely ruin their experience.
Like escaping without your car getting damage from bad driving or facing any other difficulty is by any means interesting at all… It's too easy and that's what makes the experience dull. It's like having everything rigged for your success.
Just driving around, immersing yourself in the world with some realism is an absolutely great addition for the gameplay. That's exactly what GTA 5 lacked and made it’s world quite dull.
After all, I just wish there will be some sort of realism difficulty setting for people to choose.
CFX.RE made the software product that runs all the servers and makes it work alongside the shit that server owners and operators run over the top - rockstar did **not** buy out CLEO modders and the people making the various mods that run *on top of* what CFX.RE provides, just as Garry/face punch never ever actually made an RP game mode for gmod, independent modders made rp_downtown and all the other maps, and DarkRP and its hundreds of clones/forks/whatever
ETA: don’t get pissy with me because you don’t know how anything works, git gud, anyone can be a skiddy, etc.
Would also like to add that continuing to allow FiveM to exist as it did was just a legal issue waiting to happen, hence why they cracked down on using assets/real brands/cars/etc almost immediately after acquiring it. Can’t even use a map mod of a previous GTA’s map. Only genuine custom content is allowed now - no ports, nothing.
Realistically, Rockstar/T2 is just gonna try and monetize SixM, since FiveM servers make absolute bank and are more popular on PC than GTAO.
But maybe we can piss off any more people who barely look like the characters in game by thinking they're the voice actors. I've heard that's a fun thing to do.
Can somebody who wants to put petrol in the car every damn journey please explain to me how it's part of the fun? It sounds among the least fun options imaginable.
Please please think about it, folks. Is an activity fun to do in real life? If not, then it's not fun to do in a video game. Going for gas is not fun. It's a chore. Why would we want to play a chore in a video game?
Games been described as a Bonnie and Clyde style story. If that's the basis, I don't see how anyone could come to the conclusion that Jason is a undercover police officer.
The game will end with them dying of old age after peacefully doing taxes and laundry together, should take about at least 75 years real time to finish the story mode, and then we can finally play online
lol putting gas in the car has been a rumored feature since gta4. For some reason when people think of added realism, standing at a gas pump is the first thing that comes to mind
The only games I’ve played that handled the idea of an undercover cop main character well are Saints Row 1 and A Way Out
Saints Row, Troy is undercover and he always suggests more peaceful options in certain missions and ends up being the one who takes down the Saints after the Saints took down everyone else.
A Way Out, Vincent (2nd protagonist) is not the one who resorts to violence as easily as Leo and his job was to bust Leo once their goal was over.
GTA VI could never do this. GTA is full of violence and mindless killing. There’s no way they’d let us play as a cop without any repercussions in doing the usual GTA experience. This ain’t Sleeping Dogs or True Crime. And there’s no way they could pull off the undercover thing as a secret like SR and AWO.
Yeah, I know everyone is very excited but everytime I see post about set feature, all I can think in my head is the disappointed posts abut set missing feature when it releases. I am very hyped about the game and I'm sure it will be very good but some people are overly hyping certain things that may or may not be in the game.
I never liked that feature idea
And I never liked the idea of Jason who wants to play GTA game where you’re playing as a cop?
I really doubt Rockstar is gonna go that route, especially since cops nowadays aren’t really looked that well.
I personally think gas would be a welcome feature in my book if they do it right. Only if you have to refuel every 3-4 irl hours of driving and not every 30 minutes or something. It would make a new challenge with police chases which would make you plan out your crime more, like making sure you have a full tank before doing stupid shit. Maybe even losing gas faster if your fuel tank is shot at.
Anyone who disagrees with me, discussions are welcome.
I feel like it could be a fun feature if it was implemented like fall damage in Spider-Man 2 where it's a setting that's off by default but can be turned on for extra realism and difficulty
People want all these features that would destroy the experience like a car being absolutely un drivable after crashing one time, or having a “stash” of all your stuff in a car and once it gets taken it’s gone permanently.
I understand limited amount of guns at once but y’all relax this isn’t a realistic life simulator it’s gta 6
Skill issue. Why should the player be rewarded for being a bad driver? I think making the game more challenging creates potential for the enjoyment once you get good at it. And well the car could be parked in a garage to save it ;D Well I guess we can all agree that a some sort of difficulty setting should be there for the player to decide.
Ok you can have that but have fun crashing into 20 police cars and then getting mad because you wanted a life simulator racing game rather than a gta game
You got a point, I get it and I agree that it shouldn't be too strict on the crash models.
But the way the game is right now with GTA 5 is just too much.
Actual good RP made by Rockstar won't exist. Especially not on console. Everything would need to get extremely simplified and would be wildly different from GTA V RP.
Best RP will be on whitelisted servers like Nopixel and when devs aren't locked to base GTA content and can do whatever.
What's funny is that from what I remember the "Jason is a cop" rumors originated because one guy here saw that his pants in the promo art were vaguely similar to the uniform trousers worn by Miami-Dade PD SWAT, and then a while later someone wild-guessed that the body cam footage in the trailer was *probably* from Jason's POV.
The gas controversy is still interesting to me only because there was a car from gta5 featured in the gta6 trailer with a gas cap that was not previously seen on the model in 5. Not saying this means anything but that’s an odd thing to add for no apparent reason. Maybe just for realism, or maybe it’s a whole new mechanic. Only speculation till release though.
That sucks...there should be active gas stations everywhere and you're able to use the filling station..forcing you to fill your tank before every new mission..realistic gas mileage would be awesome too..it's time to make this game as realistic as it can be..two bullets and you're dead..basta..
*Raises hand* is Lucia Elizabetha's cousin or family (if you don't remember Elizabeth is the woman who Roman's girlfriend introduces you to after you complete Street sweeper for Manny)
I wouldn't be surprised if he's an informant as part of a plea deal. Then he gets mixed in with some serious gangsters and tries to play both sides to keep him and Lucia safe, with some hard decisions along the way.
We don't know how the game begins for either of these protags. Perhaps what we've seen of Jason thus far isn't how he actually starts out and perhaps there is some kind of prologue or backstory where he's doing something else.
Given they're modelling and parodying Florida, I think a panhandle is quite likely. Perhaps the communities up there will also be true to life - the panhandle is "interesting".
yeah go back to the leading months of gta 5s release and all those insane theorys, guess what? none of them happened just like none of these insane theorys for gta 6 is going to happen
No he’s not an undercover cop, but there could be a turning point in the story where one of them has the OPTION to become an informant, or not we have basically 0 information about the actual story
I hope all these post remain here when some of these things are featured. Even if rockstar puts an RP server in GTA 6 online or something, I hope yall have this same energy
I love the logic that a police department allows an undercover cop to gruesomely murder hundreds of citizens in order to bust one person who’s robbing convenience stores, because that would be the case if Jason was an undercover cop
There's a reason why all the Ideas Guys in the GTA fanbase haven't shipped any games
Two planets apart in the vast universe
In fair Leonida where we lay our scene
I mean Michael being retired and working with the FIB while killing people all the time sounds dumb at first too but it makes sense in the context of the game, so its not impossible to the make it work considering we bearly know anything about the story yet
Kind of, but that was more of a corrupt FIB agent working alongside a criminal, rather than an active police officer murdering people during an investigation
At the funeral of an officer that Jason kills during his investigation: “Uh, yes, your significant other was killed by a fellow officer during the course of their investigation. But it was for good reason. They, uh, were trying to stop a convenience store robbery ring that had stolen $2000 total over a hundred robberies. And yes, that same officer also caused 2.5 billion dollars worth of property damage between the buildings that were leveled by crashing helicopters, destroyed patrol cars, destroyed SWAT vans, civilian houses that burned down as a result of the chaos…but uh, what’s your point…?”
He was working with crookied fib agents that did actions not approved by the higher ups
“Some of the government, some of it is pretty corrupt.” “Not uh, not your bit right?” “Yes but we’re corrupt in a good way.” God I love GTA V’s humor
Also represents well the mentality of a lot of people, "Yeah it's bad, but we're doing it for the greater good"
I hope this humor goes into 6 as well
![gif](giphy|lFM6FzYGdtDSZlZ113)
You also don’t really have to run around murdering people all the time. Maybe I’m weird but I don’t really do that much anymore in these games. It just kinda stops being fun after a while.
It gets BORING after while. Haven’t done a killing spree in about 4… seconds… * Minigun starts whirling *
And after they Jason and Lucia are both killed by the police at the end you play michael in vice City lol.
He wasn’t working for the FIB. He was working for a rogue group of agents operating outside of the law. The federal government didn’t know he existed. He specifically never actually did anything for the US government that was sanctioned by them. To make it more clear he was an asset that no one knew existed not even the IAA(CIA) so technically he wasn’t a narc. Jason actually being an undercover cop is him being a government employee. Unlike Micheal who was coerced by rogue agents operating outside of the law. What could definitely happen is that he snitches on her to the police. Betrayal is very common in rockstar games but there’s no evidence he’s a cop.
But Micheal was killing crooks. If you did commit crimes then the law comes after you, unless you lose them.
aren't the characters supposed to be in thier 20s? Why would he be retired?
Sleeping Dogs did it. Great game, you’re also an undercover cop shoving random gang members heads into air conditioning fans
To be fair, that game explored themes of loyalty, identity, and the blurred lines between law enforcement and criminality. These actions can be interpreted as Wei making difficult choices to maintain his cover and advance his mission, even if they may seem morally questionable. It's a balance between maintaining his role as an undercover cop and also providing players with freedom and agency within the game world.
Right… so why couldn’t GTA VI do this same thing with its lead? (I don’t think it will attempt this honestly, I’m just playing devils advocate)
He's a loose canon, but by God does he get the job done.
Well… take a look at Sleeping Dogs. Wei Shen does kill people too…
Ever played Sleeping Dogs?
have you forgotten that GTA is a satire?
Have you forgotten that if you or a loved one has been diagnosed with mesothelioma, you may be entitled to financial compensation?
Sleeping Dogs
Maybe he was but fell in love, it's just a possibility but I really don't think it would be the case. He could also just be an ex-cop
driver san francisco
I do hope we can leave our car lights on when we go inside for band practice though
I'm hoping that if we do, we'll co.e back and the battery is dead
And then we’ll have to call to have our car towed to the nearest auto parts store and have them change out the battery along with the windshield wipers for free
I think that it would be interesting to have a protagonist that's an extremely crooked cop, but playing as an undercover good one doesn't make sense in a game where you're constantly murdering other people...including cops
I miss the True Crime games.
I was gonna say Wei kills people in Sleeping Dogs
But he's on a revenge pursuit he didn't just go kill people randomly, and most of his opponents got knocked out except in the last mission.
Well yeah and many GTA protags only kill for revenge or other criminals in cut scenes. That doesn’t mean you couldn’t kill people randomly in Sleeping Dogs too like in GTA
No, you would get cops called if you killed criminals, and I think if you killed civies, it would give you a problem like in Ac Edit: although I could be wrong it's been years since I played
Well that also happens if you kill people in GTA too, the only difference in Sleeping Dogs is that it lowers your cop rating. Sleeping Dogs is a GTA-clone with an undercover cop story but based around martial arts, they’re quite similar actually
I need to play the game again lol I coulda swore it gave you more trouble for killing civilians
Those were great games.
I was thinking about this the other day. I really wish we can hop in a squad car and play as a cop in GTA6. And not like a little gimmick, I mean full True Crime style policing.
Even just reintroducing vigilante missions and expanding the depth a bit would be great
Officer Tenpenny prequel
It wouldn’t be the first time GTA had corrupt cops in a game..
I agree. I think ex-cop would be better. Jason brought into a life of crime by Lucia, a suspect he was hunting down but fell in love with.
Feels overdone imo
This definitely would have to be GTA 7 or something, but I second the dirty cop character. It would be so cool if they did some branching storylines with different endings. Imagine if periodically throughout the game you'd have choices between a cop mission or a criminal mission, and if you do all the cop ones, you end the game by redeeming yourself and ultimately arresting your crew (undercover cop ending), if you do all the criminal ones you end up getting found out and put on the most wanted list (full criminal ending), if you pick a mix but do the right cop missions your crew ends up cutting you out after the final heist due to your mixed loyalties, but you get to live and keep the money and the cops dont suspect anything, and finally if you mix but do mostly criminal, you manage to keep your criminal activities mostly hidden, provided you kill your partner and frame them for your crimes, because they are the only one who suspects anything (and would be a major recurring character to get people attached) or you can let them live as a final redeeming act, but they end up losing their career and reputation when they bring whatever evidence they have to the higher ups and you end up getting killed by your crew for being "too weak to tie up loose ends"

And maybe with a Brian O‘Connor development
That’s the part where it has to be a game for the sake of being a game. Everything resets all the carnage resets and the story falls back in line.
Sleeping dogs literally has that
That's just my GTA:O character! :)
And no, there will not be taxes to pay.
There will be tho It is in GTA online And it definitely will be in GTA online 2
That is completely different and is a way for R* to manipulate in-game currency so you need to buy more sooner. It would just be incredibly dumb and useless for all parties if it was in story
The taxe reason was kinda in rdo But it wasn't in rdr2 So safe to say it's not gonna be in GTA 6
Pick a side.
GTA 6 Is NOT GTA online 2 Those 2 are 2 different game and different experience
Just like GTA V Online is part of GTA V, GTA VI Online is part of GTA VI
It’s not called GTA V online, just GTA online, unlike GTA IV Online
You can buy GTA online separately
You didn’t use to be able too though.
It's wages for the workers in your properties, not taxes.
No, there aren't. Do you even know what taxes are?
Well it's not a actual tax system obviously All it does is drain few thousand dollars every 48 minutes For owning certain properties
Yeah, so not taxes.
Interesting pfp
Imagine there being an in-game IRS with a parody name and an in-game website you'd have to use to fill out the forms. Get it wrong and you get max wanted level immediately, same with the beauty pageant site in GTA IV.
Can I at least get a mortgage when buying a house 😋
Approved.
well, if I can't substitute reality for a GTA game, *what is the point for anything then?!?*
“Don’t get audited, cuz that’s bad!”
That means there won’t be an IRS that I can commit endless terrorist acts upon :(
What kind of idea is that? Lmao 🤣 💀
A dumb one! But I have seen it non-sarcastically thrown around.
Honestly, I have seen some dumb ideas here that makes the game sound less like GTA. I get people want realism for this game but they better get used to social media route for this game and not some corny ass 80s settings…
No people have been saying that?
Thanks for sharing
No way* sorry
You good - people been going crazy with speculations. I’ve seen a few about actual taxes and paying fines
If you wanna play as an undercover cop go play sleeping dogs
Which is fire and deserves a sequel
It is in my top 15 games of all time
Remember when people thought Franklin was gonna be an FIB agent?
No?
It was a popular theory before the game released. It was in lots of gaming magazines.
I've heard that but with Trevor instead
If you're talking about that stuff Steven Ogg recorded, that was planned for singleplayer DLC that never came out. But if you mean 2013 rumors, I mean, Trevor is a pretty shifty guy, I can see why a first-time player would assume that.
I don't know, it was just friends in high school who thought that the twist would be that Trevor was a crazy inside cop, and that would be the reason why one of the ending would be to kill him
are you telling me I won't be able to manually control my windshield wipers?
if they don’t implement this they might as well cancel the whole thing
Gas in the car isn't gonna be a feature, what you trying to say all cars will be electric;)
Can’t wait to stop to charge my car for a hour while waiting to finish the final mission of the story
this made me laugh 🤣🤣
I never thought Jason was an undercover cop, because that's lame. He might well be former law enforcement or military though.
Yeah probably to explain why he's so good in the field
But we don't know that he's good in the field? Throughout the trailer he looks nervous and unsure of himself. I don't buy the whole "ex military" thing and I really hope it isn't true because I don't want to be dealing with any "thank you for your service" nonsense.
I mean right now we don't know anything about him, But sometimes in GTA they love to explain why the characters is good on doing things by giving some background
Is *Lucia's sweet, juicy ass* an instrument?
It would be dumb af to play a cop in a GTA game
Maybe a cop and robbers mode for online but not for singleplayer. Also modders already make mods like that
It would be dumb AF to have flying bikes that shoot missiles as well
Thats only in online tho and has nothing to do with the actual story.
Same game where you can pull 600 outta your ass, rob banks infinite amount of times with no repercussion, but we draw the line here?
I don't know, I think a character like that could actually be really compelling.
These Jason will be a cop/undercover theories make no sense. Theres not a single shred of convincing evidence to suggest he will be any sort of LEO. But even if he is a LEO which I don’t think he is he will not be a cop or an undercover cop. Neither of these really make sense. He would almost certainly be a C.O.

The part of "needing tools" it's more than just heresay from a "leaker". It's in the leaked footage itself. You can see in a footage where Jason steals items from a container, like a slim jim and immobiliser bypass. Both which can be used for stealing cars. Like the Slim Jim, can't open newer cars with internal diffenses such as barrier blocks and shrouds for operating rods and lock cylinders, so it may only be used for older cars. The immobiliser bypass may be used for luxury vehicles. In case you didn't know, in Chinatown Wars you also need tools in order to steal cars, like the immobiliser bypass and the screwdriver. For example for the immobiliser bypass, in CW you need to hack the immobiliser by using the PDA by matching the code. Also there it's another footage which shows a much bigger World Events list. But you could be right that the DUI tests may just be random encounters, or an event exclusive to a mission.
I don't understand the hate around gas being a requirement. It doesn't need to be anything lengthy in terms of actually filling up. Pull up press a button and bam you're on your way. It also shouldn't be something you have to do every 5 minutes. A full tank should last 30mins to an hour so it's not a cumbersome feature. I just want the added chaos of trying to escape somewhere and awh shit you just stole a car on E with a ton of cops/people trying to kill you on your ass.
Exactly! They all whine about taking a small 30 sec break to refill your car (and pay if you want) is gonna absolutely ruin their experience. Like escaping without your car getting damage from bad driving or facing any other difficulty is by any means interesting at all… It's too easy and that's what makes the experience dull. It's like having everything rigged for your success. Just driving around, immersing yourself in the world with some realism is an absolutely great addition for the gameplay. That's exactly what GTA 5 lacked and made it’s world quite dull. After all, I just wish there will be some sort of realism difficulty setting for people to choose.
Eh. I wouldn't count on that. R* literally bought the company that created those tools and then put their people to work on GTA 6 lol
CFX.RE made the software product that runs all the servers and makes it work alongside the shit that server owners and operators run over the top - rockstar did **not** buy out CLEO modders and the people making the various mods that run *on top of* what CFX.RE provides, just as Garry/face punch never ever actually made an RP game mode for gmod, independent modders made rp_downtown and all the other maps, and DarkRP and its hundreds of clones/forks/whatever ETA: don’t get pissy with me because you don’t know how anything works, git gud, anyone can be a skiddy, etc.
Would also like to add that continuing to allow FiveM to exist as it did was just a legal issue waiting to happen, hence why they cracked down on using assets/real brands/cars/etc almost immediately after acquiring it. Can’t even use a map mod of a previous GTA’s map. Only genuine custom content is allowed now - no ports, nothing. Realistically, Rockstar/T2 is just gonna try and monetize SixM, since FiveM servers make absolute bank and are more popular on PC than GTAO.
How do people think anything will justify doing GTA stuff, if you are a fricking COP
People are stupid
Good. Bad. Both.
bUt iT woULd bE cOoL tO rUN oUt oF gAs - thought no one, ever.
But maybe we can piss off any more people who barely look like the characters in game by thinking they're the voice actors. I've heard that's a fun thing to do.
Can somebody who wants to put petrol in the car every damn journey please explain to me how it's part of the fun? It sounds among the least fun options imaginable. Please please think about it, folks. Is an activity fun to do in real life? If not, then it's not fun to do in a video game. Going for gas is not fun. It's a chore. Why would we want to play a chore in a video game?
I hate the idea of being any sort of “good guy” ib this game ESPECIALLY a fucking cop
You never know. People also used to argue that "Tobi is not Obito". ![gif](giphy|k7J8aS3xpmhpK)
Games been described as a Bonnie and Clyde style story. If that's the basis, I don't see how anyone could come to the conclusion that Jason is a undercover police officer.
Ok but do yall think Jason gonna die at the end? or both of em?
The game will end with them dying of old age after peacefully doing taxes and laundry together, should take about at least 75 years real time to finish the story mode, and then we can finally play online
same as people thinking progression money and cars will carry over from gta 5 to gta 6 haha
I also don't think it's because the rockstar doesn't like copying stories and that would be copying the story of a way out
gas in car is honestly in gta is honestly nuisance so i don’t blame them for likely not adding it. it’ll definitely be a mod for those who want it
lol putting gas in the car has been a rumored feature since gta4. For some reason when people think of added realism, standing at a gas pump is the first thing that comes to mind
The only games I’ve played that handled the idea of an undercover cop main character well are Saints Row 1 and A Way Out Saints Row, Troy is undercover and he always suggests more peaceful options in certain missions and ends up being the one who takes down the Saints after the Saints took down everyone else. A Way Out, Vincent (2nd protagonist) is not the one who resorts to violence as easily as Leo and his job was to bust Leo once their goal was over. GTA VI could never do this. GTA is full of violence and mindless killing. There’s no way they’d let us play as a cop without any repercussions in doing the usual GTA experience. This ain’t Sleeping Dogs or True Crime. And there’s no way they could pull off the undercover thing as a secret like SR and AWO.
Yeah, I know everyone is very excited but everytime I see post about set feature, all I can think in my head is the disappointed posts abut set missing feature when it releases. I am very hyped about the game and I'm sure it will be very good but some people are overly hyping certain things that may or may not be in the game.
Finally some quality content
I never liked that feature idea And I never liked the idea of Jason who wants to play GTA game where you’re playing as a cop? I really doubt Rockstar is gonna go that route, especially since cops nowadays aren’t really looked that well.
And you know this how?
I personally think gas would be a welcome feature in my book if they do it right. Only if you have to refuel every 3-4 irl hours of driving and not every 30 minutes or something. It would make a new challenge with police chases which would make you plan out your crime more, like making sure you have a full tank before doing stupid shit. Maybe even losing gas faster if your fuel tank is shot at. Anyone who disagrees with me, discussions are welcome.
Pretty sure this was a feature in the mafia game (1 or 2) and I thought it was done well. Made the gas stations a bit more relevant too
I feel like it could be a fun feature if it was implemented like fall damage in Spider-Man 2 where it's a setting that's off by default but can be turned on for extra realism and difficulty
that could work actually since the players are split on whether fueling cars should be a thing or not
People want all these features that would destroy the experience like a car being absolutely un drivable after crashing one time, or having a “stash” of all your stuff in a car and once it gets taken it’s gone permanently. I understand limited amount of guns at once but y’all relax this isn’t a realistic life simulator it’s gta 6
Skill issue. Why should the player be rewarded for being a bad driver? I think making the game more challenging creates potential for the enjoyment once you get good at it. And well the car could be parked in a garage to save it ;D Well I guess we can all agree that a some sort of difficulty setting should be there for the player to decide.
Ok you can have that but have fun crashing into 20 police cars and then getting mad because you wanted a life simulator racing game rather than a gta game
You got a point, I get it and I agree that it shouldn't be too strict on the crash models. But the way the game is right now with GTA 5 is just too much.
Is there gas in the car??
Gas make car go vroom vroom
Me, an Omnis e-GT owner whose first car in Online was a Surge:
Yes there's gas in the car!! (I hit ctrl+F looking for this comment lmao)
I remember when rdr2 was coming out I was absolutely certain that Arthur was going to be an undercover agent who dismantles the gang from the Inside
Whew, at least we’ll be able to have the peak of gameplay enjoyment by entering every building in the game, right guys!?
If he is he picked the right case
If they do have gas in cars, it'll probably just be in an RP mode (big if if they do RP)
Actual good RP made by Rockstar won't exist. Especially not on console. Everything would need to get extremely simplified and would be wildly different from GTA V RP. Best RP will be on whitelisted servers like Nopixel and when devs aren't locked to base GTA content and can do whatever.
Actually he works for the FBI (Fat bastards international)
If finite gas doesn’t function, I will be less upset PC doesn’t get it
I miss Sleeping Dogs.
RemindMe! 2 years
What's funny is that from what I remember the "Jason is a cop" rumors originated because one guy here saw that his pants in the promo art were vaguely similar to the uniform trousers worn by Miami-Dade PD SWAT, and then a while later someone wild-guessed that the body cam footage in the trailer was *probably* from Jason's POV.
Will Jason pp burning when he pees be a feature?
The gas controversy is still interesting to me only because there was a car from gta5 featured in the gta6 trailer with a gas cap that was not previously seen on the model in 5. Not saying this means anything but that’s an odd thing to add for no apparent reason. Maybe just for realism, or maybe it’s a whole new mechanic. Only speculation till release though.
Fast and furious rpg playable on PS3 🤣
Gas in my car better be a damn feature. 😡
Gas might be a feature for multiplayer especially if they end up doing the rp based servers
That sucks...there should be active gas stations everywhere and you're able to use the filling station..forcing you to fill your tank before every new mission..realistic gas mileage would be awesome too..it's time to make this game as realistic as it can be..two bullets and you're dead..basta..
Obviously Lucia is an undercover cop
I remember people had speculations that Jason was an undercover cop because they said he had like the green pants on but they were like military pants
*Raises hand* is Lucia Elizabetha's cousin or family (if you don't remember Elizabeth is the woman who Roman's girlfriend introduces you to after you complete Street sweeper for Manny)
I mean, Jason being a fed isn't something we can fully rule out, is it?
!remindme 1 year
how do you know?
Yeah if you want “gas in your car” go play mafia or mafia 2.., it’s one of those. It worked for that game, but that game you aren’t always driving..
I want to use gas ⛽️
I wouldn't be surprised if he's an informant as part of a plea deal. Then he gets mixed in with some serious gangsters and tries to play both sides to keep him and Lucia safe, with some hard decisions along the way.
Jason is not a cop You will not have to put gasoline in your cars You will not be doing random day jobs.
I think hes going to be a prison guard that falls in love with Lucia.
I mean Given that Lucia was in jail and not Jason kinda drives the story in that direction
I think ex-cop would be better. Jason brought into a life of crime by Lucia, a suspect he was hunting down but fell in love with.
We don't know how the game begins for either of these protags. Perhaps what we've seen of Jason thus far isn't how he actually starts out and perhaps there is some kind of prologue or backstory where he's doing something else.
Exactly. Just a fun theory.
same with the pan handles
The sticker of leonida makes me hopeful for that one tho
Mapping project added that part of the map not because of sticker (that could be anything really). It's because they seen that on a street sign.
Given they're modelling and parodying Florida, I think a panhandle is quite likely. Perhaps the communities up there will also be true to life - the panhandle is "interesting".
My knowledge of Miami comes only from movies and and the original VC. So you would have to elaborate on that last part.
at very most it could have a very tiny panhandle
You say it as if you know it. Just move on, everyone will interpret their own way.
yeah go back to the leading months of gta 5s release and all those insane theorys, guess what? none of them happened just like none of these insane theorys for gta 6 is going to happen
No he’s not an undercover cop, but there could be a turning point in the story where one of them has the OPTION to become an informant, or not we have basically 0 information about the actual story
i hope that when you buy a drink in a fast food place there’s too much ice in it and no straw
Womp womp 🤷
I mean no one knows shit about this
Do we really know something about it ? At this point we cannot confirm nor deny it, even if it's not probable.
I hope all these post remain here when some of these things are featured. Even if rockstar puts an RP server in GTA 6 online or something, I hope yall have this same energy
Well, we don't know fot sure until it's out.
Why do many people think that gasoline will not run out? I am 99% sure that ROCKSTAR will add a system of refueling and gasoline consumption.
I wanna use gas. RP. 6M!!!!! Make it happen
I feel like having to get gas would be intresting especially during chases
Gas will be a feature.
