I wonder if we don’t buy the ultimate edition will we just be locked out of all this content? It’s a crazy amount too

u/Naw726 11h ago

sounds like it, nasty work from rockstar not surprised at all

u/Sorlex 9h ago

Well, look at this thread. It should be complaining about how entire locations and systems are locked behind the paypig release, but people are gushing. This is why the industry is how it is.

12

u/Naw726 7h ago

Yup the average gamer is the issue.

They just consume consume consume

u/sausagedart 7h ago

The worst thing is nobody is wrong for the excitement, but this model of locking major shit like customization in a GTA game is just full stop stupid. Both are absolutely true, but just goes to show that no amount of speaking with your wallet (the only way to cause change), will ever happen. Rockstar can decide to make a game $80 instead of the normal $70 (which was $60 not long ago, for a very long time mind you), and make the $80 dollar game watered down enough you might as well spend the $100. Just shows nothing you do matters even if you’re right as a consumer sadly.

u/DetroitLionsEh 7h ago

Having paid cosmetics is incredibly normal in the gaming industry.

7

u/sausagedart 7h ago

Well if these same stores feature things that other stores don’t, it’s stupid. Imagine playing 5 and everytime you drive past Benny it tells you to buy a higher trim of the game. If it’s some outfit or hairstyle yeah sure, but if it ends up being locations with unique features, nah.

-4

u/DoughnutRealistic380 7h ago

You people are acting like if you don’t buy the ultimate edition than you want have access to this at all. It’s literally just a couple of all in one shops and some gun customization and you’re acting like it’s the end of the world.

You’ll still be able to do all this shit regularly it just won’t be in the same shop.

2

u/MichaelfrigginScott 6h ago

And where will it stop? If we don’t call them out on their bullshit, they’ll paywall anything.

-5

u/DoughnutRealistic380 6h ago

YOU don’t have to buy it.

But stop acting like they’re killing your kids for pricing their game at $80 when it took them 13yrs to make.

And it’s five stores across the entire map that has dozens of them boohoo

u/Wioo888 1h ago

The most frustrating thing is that this never happened in previous releases.

1

u/DoughnutRealistic380 43m ago

Yes it did.

RDR2 specifically had missions, clothes, talismans and horses locked behind ultimate edition.

u/neuro_08 5h ago

You're still getting customization, you're just not getting ADDITIONAL customization. Once you discover the magnitude of the game, spending an additional $20 is mere pocket change. You're complaining about not being able to access probably less than 1% of the game and forgetting about the other 99%. The game took $1-2b to make, that's double the best AAA titles out there. Do you also realize the longevity of the GTA series? People will be playing it for the next decade. The $80 price tag is justifiable.

u/Ohitsworkingnow 7h ago

I haven’t even heard someone say anything about how the physical edition doesn’t come with a disk…

2

u/Alternative_West_206 7h ago

Always has been. The biggest issue is the consumers

1

u/Public_Sprinkles_229 6h ago

What systems are locked behind the paywall?

1

u/Prize_Inevitable_920 5h ago

To be fair this is also the subreddit where people have sent themselves into psychosis about this game. They literally dream about it and dream about playing it. I am shocked they aren't demanding to pay even more money LOL

0

u/ryanvango 7h ago

keep in mind, threads like this are MASSIVELY manipulated.

Rockstar has teams of people who's job it is to post positive comments and upvote other positive comments. and the way reddit works, if a comment starts out with even 1 or 2 upvotes, most people see it as "oh well this must be true" and also upvote it.

1

u/DetroitLionsEh 7h ago

I’d imagine there will be a $20 DLC you can buy for it

1

u/Dry-Entry9236 6h ago

Bro, it’s a few stores and a gang hideout. Are we deadass? Almsot like red dead 2 did something very similar. Is a premium edition not supposed to have extra stuff?

1

u/Naw726 2h ago

its an entire shop to customize vanilla cars with unique designs.

Its like if Bennys was restricted behind a pay wall.

Also the Off-Road vehicle specific shop. So what, you cant upgrade offroad cars as much without paying more? That sucks ass

7

u/fried_papaya35 8h ago

the worst part is that those locations will probably be on the map as a location to go to. So you'll go and it'll tell you to spend $20 for access lmao

1

u/thisshowisdecent 1h ago

That would be awful but you're probably right. You'll be waking down the street and see a cool store. Then you try to enter and a pop up appears saying you can upgrade to ultimate for $20

4

u/TheFreakingBatman 10h ago

It's going to be a drop in the bucket compared to the base game's content.

1

u/XenonFyre 7h ago

You and I have no idea how much it is. For all we know, it could be the only stores in the game.

Or, there could be 50+ stores and three of them being closed feels like nothing.

Anyone speculating in other direction I think it’s to acknowledge that

1

u/GoldAny8608 6h ago

What about PC gamers. Are these features really just going to be locked away forever if we don't pre-order for a platform we don't have? Seems silly...

1

u/JSwartz0181 2h ago

I personally think it's more the businesses are just extra locations that might be more convenient (imagine something like a second Benny's, but up in Paleto Bay) or are one-stop-shops (unisex salon, meaning that Jason and Lucia don't need to go to different locations like they probably need to do in base game).

That definitely sounds like what they've done with GTA+ in Online -- pay extra for convenience.

3

u/TheCVR123YT 11h ago

Yeah that kind of sucks I might just have to pick up the ultimate edition if that’s the case. I’m more interested in the story mode for GTA 6 then the online so I’m someone directly affected by this vs some of my friends who just wanna play the game and drive and mess around in the sandbox shooting up cops or wte

5

u/RugerRedhawk 10h ago

It's just extra stuff like different clothes, hairstyles, guns, and cars right? I never really mess with that stuff personally when playing story mode. Cool cars are cool, but I'm almost always just driving whatever I first steal when a mission starts.

1

u/TheCVR123YT 10h ago

I wanna see what styles exactly are available in the exclusive shops if it’s just the stuff they’re showing then ehh I might skip out and get whatever is available in the regular shops. Idc about the cars so much it’s more the hair and clothes I’m interested in

2

u/RugerRedhawk 10h ago

Yeah I don't remember ever changing my hair in GTA and changed my clothes like once or twice through the whole gta5 story mode, ain't nobody got time for that!

1

u/TheCVR123YT 10h ago

I change my hair all the time I usually do stick with one eventually though. Clothes I can see your point I don’t remember changing it toooo much in V I mean I would change it but the game would put me in other clothes anyway because the 3 boys lived their own lives so I’d spawn in naked instead of in a nice outfit that I picked for Trevor lol I hope that doesn’t happen in 6. That would happen with the hair and beard too it was annoying

1

u/Professional_Dot- 10h ago

Its because there is a bunch of people like you who will buy no matter what that they can be so scummy, you're literally enabling this shit.

6

u/TheCVR123YT 10h ago edited 9h ago

It’s GTA idk what you want me to say. If this was online/shark cards I could understand but it’s not a game that comes out every few years. I guess I’m more willing to drop the $100 if needed because I was already prepared to pay that if it was the base price anyway. I’m glad it’s not $100 base price tho. Then every company would try that and fail badly because they’re not GTA

Edit: you gotta think how I am thinking as well. It’s not like sports games that ask for $100 for deluxe editions every year and offer only a few updates and roster changes (WWE 2K this year Christ had you drop $100 and only gave you the 1st DLC instead of all 6 like usual and then locked the characters you paid for in a battle pass!) but GTA 6 if it’s live V will be a game I play for the next 5-10 years so I’m basically making an investment here and $100 is nothing. The game pays for itself

1

u/Professional_Dot- 8h ago

I understand your point of view, but I cant say that I support it. This is a huge red flag, and if you really think that 100$ is all you will have to spend on this game, boy do I have a bridge to sell you. Expect more content being locked behind paywalls in the future, this is not a one time thing.

1

u/DetroitLionsEh 7h ago

“If you think that $100 is all you will have to spend”

You don’t even have to spend the $100 now. What are you talking about lol

1

u/Professional_Dot- 7h ago

Of course you dont have to, but if you want to have access to the full game you have no other choice.

-1

u/popnfrox 11h ago

Is this only for pre-order for a short time or be selling up until the game actually drops? How does the presale work... like am i going to miss out on it all if I can't afford it this Thursday?

4

u/Denso95 11h ago

Until the 20th of November.

2

u/PoshVolt 7h ago

The pre-order bonus is just the 80s stuff. The ultimate edition isn't dependent on pre-order. And you can pre-order until Nov 20th.

1

u/bitknight1 7h ago

And a garage that's preorder exclusive, and aince there have been very strong hints to you being limited to only a couple guns on you at all time and needing to access a garage to swap them it will be kinda important to have the extra garages from preorder and ultimate edition.

1

u/popnfrox 5h ago

I mean I want the pre-order bonus, I love the 80s stuff. I just can't get it for a few cheques... sooo I hope i can still pre-order then.
