Exploring the UPDATED GTA VI mapping project

[@CaptainGlack]

At 0:43 I show the contrast boosted version of the bumper sticker that supposedly shows the map outline. *THE BUMPER STICKER APPEARS TO BE FALSE. IT IS NOT THE MAP.* I didn’t catch that beforehand, but decided to include it because it looked interesting. Sorry!

[@benc6252]

Bro i coulda told you that wasnt the map by looking at it. Its literally just a vague shape.

[@Ezdine_G8261]

soo is this still mostly legible? it'd make sense honestly

[@pepsicop4612]

Yea it looks like Oklahoma

[@beansinacan500]

I remember this reddit post, and I think people in the comments and posts after that image, people compared it to a Florida flag, the "Conch Republic Key West" flag

[@juhokuusisto9339]

Looks more like a 101st AB Div. patch.

[@voteforfire]

I find It so cool how someone out there from Rockstar, a regular employee knows what the map looks like, then goes to the site to check out the mapping project, knowing everything unlike the REST of the planet, already knowing what the game will look like, yet having to stay quiet without confirming nor denying anything. So cool

[@CaptainGlack]

My favourite thing is that I actually know a guy, who knows a guy who works at Rockstar North. They are, of course, incredibly tight-lipped. Guy worked on the horses for RDR2 and is now a lead (for like, a team or something) on GTA VI.

[@voteforfire]

@@CaptainGlack That's really, really cool. I know the leaks have cost Rockstar a bunch of money, but in my personal opinion they were incredibly cool to witness. Just raw footage of what's to come, and personally the more raw leaks the better, just obviously without story spoilers. Hopefully we get much more out of Trailer 2 than we have from trailer 1. Never been so hyped for a game before lmao

[@CaptainGlack]

@@voteforfire my friend even has a copy of RDR2 signed by a bunch of developers. I really wish I were him ngl. But yes, you’re right it was incredible to witness but I’m hoping for just more official trailers and screenshots.

[@QuackCow144]

Yeah I give props to GTA devs. They don't get to feel the same feeling as we will when GTA 6 is first released. There will be a whole open world for us to discover but they know every little thing on the map and know the whole story so I feel bad they can't explore it

There is a large chance that the Panhandle isn’t accessible in game, but it is a part of the State of Leonida. Like how Los Santos isn’t the entire State of San Andreas.

[@CaptainGlack]

Definitely a possibility! This is like 95% speculation after all.

[@DustynCarl]

It might be since its meant to be the entire state and technically would make it useless since well never see the panhandle if they make it real and not in game but yet vc is only in vice city and its not the entire state so idk (sorry for yapping)

[@aliceinbunnyland]

it would honestly be pretty cool if gta 6 had some sort of mapping related side quest in honor of the mapping community. i could absolutely see something with the vibe of the alien guy from gta 5 who gives Franklin that weird car

[@abdulazizomer7588]

One really cool addition would be an island south east of the map. Most of the map is to the left of the (0,0) coordinates with barley anything to the right. We also know bermuda triangle and island event exist in the world event list so i think its likely that there is something that extends the map further right.

"Grand Theft Auto VI heads to the state of Leonida, home to the neon-soaked streets of Vice City and beyond in the biggest, most immersive evolution of the Grand Theft Auto yet" says Rockstar. So for me no surprise, they’re talking about Leonida not Vice City. Now hope they don’t disappoint and it’s not what we expect.

[@LapisOnTheMoon]

good vid! algorithm time! love the mapping project. for future reference, you can change the version of the map shown with the slider, so it would be easier way to show the differences directly

[@GANONdork123]

As someone who grew up in Florida, I just assumed the map was just the southern half of the state. Seeing it with a panhandle looks so weird. It looks like Florida but it was shrunk using the content aware scale tool.

[@craigsampson3386]

The speculation and scouring over the tiniest of details of an upcoming GTA game never gets old for me I love it, been doing it for decades now 😂 Edit: Just subscribed 👍

[@thesomewhatfantasticmrfox]

Loving the coverage from you and all these contributors! So far, I'm real excited with all the details, especially for a more state-counterpart shaped map instead of V's goofy amoeba shaped map. If the police system gets overhauled (again) like how IV first included Noose as an agency, I'd be all in! I feel like SERA/NASA (as a new possible agency/branch) might be a good indicator of that in my opinion!

[@jairoiii6571]

The trailer shot at 7:18 is the shot when the person is jumping on the table or when Jason is passing the cops passing the It Cures Emotions sign Probably the second one because it looks like it’s on a road

I could definitely see them adding a Liberty City expansion to GTA6 online considering it was initially planned in GTAV online.

[@tylerking93]

I think it would be cool if they added Atlanta GA in the future to the north and a mountain range

[@chandlercarr4527]

I think they should make it real simple, just like how Florida really is. Make Vice City massive, outside of the cities, FL is mainly grass & highway. They just need to add Orlando, Tampa + the Keys and can easily add more in the future. I would like to see Jacksonville, I honestly don’t care if it’s scaled to real size or not

[@austinshepard6043]

Jacksonville would be perfect for a gta game even as a smaller city

[@losisansgaming2628]

Maybe Gainesville as something more to the north west or center, it is the 13th largest city by population

[@EliKav]

in terms of rockstar adding to the map down the line, adding a cuba inspired Island to the south would be good, a climate we haven't really had in GTA games

[@Blazepointfive]

I want rockstar to be like, SUPRISE SUPRISE MFSSSS!!!

[@R3fug333]

I think the map is gonna be the bottom half of Florida. At most a super condensed version of the state.

[@marci6191]

Cant wait for trailer 2 to see more of the map

[@OfficialYoutubeAlgorithm]

Bumper sticker looks more like some kind of shield with a text at the top, and another text in its left superior part of the shield image, it doesn't look like a continuacion of the figure but something apart which is just in top of it, the color of the texture is different ant the postion doesn't feels natural to represent some kind of land.

[@nokori4415]

If this is true, imagine going from the keys to Copperhead.

[@CaptainGlack]

That’ll be a GTA Online sell mission for sure

[@_Devil]

I remember when Dupzor started the project and I noticed that his Northern border just kinda stopped abruptly. That's when I first thought there was more to the map than we know. I thought at first they were gonna pull an RDR2 and have an out of bounds thing going on, but then I remembered this is Grand Theft Auto and people will just fly to the other landmasses. So now I think they will end up doing a highly compressed version of all of Florida, like how 5's map was a highly compressed version of California

[@bruhhuh2901]

Wouldn't be surprised if we see a potential new orleans/saint denis dlc or maybe atlanta

[@Westfield813]

Going down I-75 in gta 6 is definitely gonna be something 💀

[@alexties6933]

The size of gellehorn and vice city in comparison to the speculated stuff seems off to me, lake leonida cant be smaller than vice city bay

[@WoozieGuy]

I hope Leonida isn’t just a giant flat wetland island in the middle of an infinite ocean and should have interesting environments like coniferous forests, small hills, grasslands, swamps, rivers, lakes, and subtropics in the southern part of the map that make it feel like Florida.

[@ReinaPerez-l3q]

It's gonna be like RDR2

[@rainbowbridge4766]

When trailer 2 drops we will know so much more

[@-Tannenbaum-]

IMO the map is going to be large because Rockstar counts on the fact they will milk VI for at least 10 years but IMO more likely 20 years :D so it has to be big to accommodate players and stories for as long as possible. Because let's face it - the V map is not bad but 90% of players are roaming around the city center and the remaining 10% travel to the other end of the map only because they cheaped out on properties and bought the cheapest bunker and what not. My wild guess is that 2% from the 10% mentioned go there only to have some "alone" time in a public session... only to get harassed by a teleporting modder :D So I am glad the map is going to be big but I only hope it won't be and feel empty like in GTA San Andreas. Anything in the desert area and basically outside the city was just "there". Nothing else. No reason to go there no reason to explore.

The current panhandle design is, in my opinion, not really the final. They still need to fit the SERA area plus Fairy Land and the Orlando look-alike. There’s not enough room in this map for that. Plus, it just looks weird.

[@Iangamebr]

I'll be honest, this map speculation has about double the size but even more space with a whole lot of nothing. It seems the GTAV map has more city space and points of interest. Hopefully I'm wrong.

[@kaszkatv3992]

GTA V and more city space? You lost your sanity man, leaks, trailers and even mapping project denies that. VC a lot is 35% bigger than LS and that’s what we know
