GTA 6 leaks

[.Lethal]

Wasn't wowed by the graphics!

It was never ment for public viewing and the clips we've seen are from a build that was early last year. A number of the assets are from RDR2/GTA V.

There's plenty of image comparisons from all 3 games on the gtaforums website where the leak was first posted.

Biggest game leak of all time?

Also did I just read source code been sold for $100k

Nope wasn't sold, quickly debunked.

Their actively looking to sell the GTA V source code and as of now want to talk to Rockstar about 6 first.

Looks like a finished Ubisoft game*

Me neither, but then I remembered the game will look totally different when it gets released in 2025

 

[GravyMonster]

Exactly, there's a whole load of optimisations they'll be doing before they release it in 2026

Thoughts and prayers to R*

It was alpha footage it isn't going to look mind blowing! From what I've seen I was very impressed.

 

[Plainsong]

Interesting. Need to go find some of that footage again and watch it when I’m not on my phone.

They won’t be using final models or textures for testing early on as they are probably not even finished yet.

These are just placeholders for the programmers to work with while building the game engine.

looks like the leak came from their internal slack

That's what i read also. Someone called a Rockstar Dev from 'IT' and asked if he received a 2FA notification and likely said some nonsense about security to reset everyone's passed and the Dev allowed it and possibly even gave them the code.

Pretty common social engineering tactic that. Us humans are often the weakest link in corporate security.

 

[Grim5]

Pretty stupid really, there is never any reason to give your password or authentication codes to anyone, and doing so should be grounds for instant dismissal that's how serious it should be. Any IT department can access and reset anyone's password, they don't need you to tell them your password.

I anticipate the employee involved is now fired and will find it difficult to work in game development again

 

[UberTiger]

Many employees at large companies don't fully understand how 2FA works and how easily it can be exploited.

Most people are trusting and don't want to rock the boat, that's how social engineering works. They receive a call from someone they think is 'IT' and they want to help and be a good person.

Social engineering exploits most people's natural instinct to want to help and be a good person, not realising that challenging a request for a code that they don't fully understand could stop the attack.

It's an education issue, and I blame that on the company under attack, not the employee that got socially engineered.

I wouldn’t worry about the graphic, it’s still years away from being finished.

Biggest disappointment is that it’s another modern day American setting. Lost opportunity to do something a bit more interesting, especially given how long it’s been since GTA5 was released.

Some talk that it might have more than one location. Map is supposedly around 3x the size of GTA V's map although not sure if that counts as all different locations added together.

If they wanted to make a big map do California or something.

 

[Vandle]

Regardless. I absolutely can't wait and will likely preorder for a midnight launch and take the next day off work even though I'll be almost 50 by the time it comes out.
