After nearly a decade of taking part in Grand Theft Auto 5 and its many re-releases, the hype for the subsequent entry is at a fever pitch. When GTA VI releases the sport will doubtless turn into one of many greatest leisure launches in historical past, similar to earlier entries. Nonetheless, if Rockstar intends to impress players as soon as once more, they’ll have to make these 10 huge enhancements to keep away from letting down players the identical approach that latest triple-A titles have.
Focus the Narrative Once more
Grand Theft Auto 5 broke new floor for the collection by crafting a story that includes the three playable characters; Micheal, Trevor, and Franklin. Every character felt distinct and fascinating of their approach. Nonetheless, the story is advised from three views making the sport’s general themes appear convoluted to a sure extent.
In Crimson Useless Redemption 2 it’s arguably simpler to know the motivations of Arthur Morgan together with the route that the writers took the story. In the meantime, many missions and plot factors in GTA 5 felt like easy excuses for main set items. Hopefully Rockstar can provide gamers the identical the extent of immersion and connection that many gamers felt with Arthur Morgan.
Enhance the Gunplay
Rockstar is similar firm that developed and printed Max Payne 3 which has a few of the smoothest gunplay in any third-person shooter even after 10 years of being in the marketplace. So because of this, it’s baffling that the majority Rockstar titles are objectively much less enjoyable to play compared to different shooters.
There are two doable explanations for this unusual phenomenon. One cause could also be that Rockstar values realism and immersion above the rest and all of their playable characters have to maneuver in reasonable methods not like the frequent protagonist of a Name of Obligation recreation. Another excuse is that Rockstar needs to compensate for his or her reasonable motion by giving informal gamers the prospect to successfully take out enemies with ease. With the subsequent entry it might be good to expertise smoother gunplay that challenges the participant.
Give That means to Cash
The pursuit of cash is one thing that’s a driving power for the narratives of most GTA video games. Because of this, it’s considerably ironic that midway by most titles cash turns into irrelevant for many gamers. Whether or not a participant steals the vehicles they need or buys all of the weapons they want, cash ultimately turns into a random quantity within the high proper of the nook for many gamers. The following entry has the prospect to make the participant actually worth each greenback they earn by illicit means.
Perhaps have a everlasting well being improve related to cash or have a system in place that makes it crucial that you simply discover ways to handle your cash for the general advantage of your character. In fact, gamers shouldn’t should turn into accountants to succeed on the recreation, however it might be fascinating to see if Rockstar can shake issues up.
Enhance Participant Interplay
A minor and main characteristic of Crimson Useless Redemption 2 was the dialogue system that allow gamers discuss to each NPC within the recreation. In fact, gamers couldn’t have Mass Impact-style conversations with each NPC however gamers bought the prospect to specific themselves and be taught extra in regards to the characters of RDR 2. If Rockstar may construct off of this technique they’ve the chance to doubtlessly make GTA 6 one of the vital immersive video games ever launched. Not solely that however Rockstar may additionally go the additional mile and permit gamers to enter much more buildings inside no matter metropolis they resolve to go to within the subsequent launch.
Make GTA: On-line Accessible
Have you ever tried taking part in Grand Theft Auto: On-line in 2023? Whether or not new or outdated, gamers are bombarded by tons of content material that’s both complicated to navigate to or requires tons of grinding simply to expertise. And whereas having tons of content material updates is what retains GTA: On-line round, Rockstar can do a greater job of updating sure techniques throughout the recreation.
For instance, most gamers are aggressively pushed to purchase microtransactions and the sport preys on gamers with restricted time who wish to expertise the newest updates. It is a far cry from the times of the multiplayer of Grand Theft Auto 4 the place gamers merely had everything of Liberty Metropolis at their fingertips.
Now gamers should deal with the net portion as a second job to really feel a way of satisfaction. In fact, Rockstar will most likely proceed down this path as a result of its success however hopefully, the subsequent iteration of GTA: On-line can concentrate on offering a enjoyable expertise as a substitute of a very grindy one.
Publish-Launch Expansions
Do you notice the final time we bought an growth was GTA IV, a 12 months after its launch? GTA V didn’t get a single growth. If you wish to expertise any type of new GTA content material, it’s a must to play GTA On-line, and which means coping with the sport’s exhausting grind.
No, what we’d like is one thing akin to Crimson Useless Redemption’s Undead Nightmare and GTA IV: The Misplaced and Damned. It’d be an excellent alternative to discover characters additional, new content material, one other marketing campaign, and add some longevity to the principle recreation general. Not each fan needs to play GTA On-line, you realize? And go wild with the content material, too, just like the Undead Nightmare growth did with zombies!
Customizable Participant Homes
Sooner or later in Grand Theft Auto, you’ve got a lot cash you don’t even know what to do with it. With thousands and thousands within the financial institution, you’ll have loads for stocking up on ammo, vehicles, and participant housing. Other than weapons and automobiles, what’s the purpose of shopping for different homes? It’s nothing greater than a cash sink.
This may be simply rectified in GTA VI if we may furnish our home or, on the very least, be capable to buy totally different themes. Customization is a tad primary in GTA V, so it’d be a breath of contemporary air if we may alter extra than simply our character and automotive.
Extra Immersive NPC AI
Whereas the NPCs in Starfield don’t react to you letting off a number of rounds on the town, those in GTA V definitely do. They may take off in worry and even pull out a gun themselves, however let’s be sincere, plenty of the time NPCs might be downright dumb. Their driving is a selected blind spot, particularly the cops, which you’ll so simply exploit. What GTA VI wants are extra reactive NPCs and variation.
For instance, why not implement citizen’s arrest? Should you’re terrorizing a bunch of oldsters, possibly somebody decides to take issues into their very own fingers and also you get busted. I’d additionally prefer to see police use extra aggressive driving methods, too. Watching cops ramp the again in an effort to throw me off stability is an effective begin, nevertheless it’s nonetheless simple to outrun and outmaneuver the police with even primary driving expertise.
Native Multiplayer
No matter occurred to native multiplayer? It was such a enjoyable characteristic in GTA: San Andreas, however was by no means revisited once more. It wouldn’t even should be split-screen or essentially fleshed out. I simply need to have the ability to wreak havoc on individuals with a buddy with out resorting to GTA On-line or taking turns. Perhaps throw in a number of facet missions which might be split-screen solely. Please, Rockstar?
Convey Again Turf Battle Mechanics
Talking of San Andreas, the most effective options that entry had was turf warfare. Should you drove round city, you’ll shortly discover there are a number of roving gangs, denoted by their matching colours. In your map, you can see which gang owned which sections and, in the event you had been feeling daring, you can overthrow them with your individual gang. It was an superior mechanic that wasn’t simply enjoyable, nevertheless it performed into the entire theme of San Andreas.
We may severely use one thing comparable in GTA VI. It wouldn’t should be gangs particularly—let that be distinctive to San Andreas. Nonetheless, there’s little question we’re doing unlawful stuff within the subsequent installment, so why not convey that characteristic again in a special gentle? Maybe you’re increasing a felony group and, in an effort to offer a objective, possibly sure missions and facet missions are solely out there when you’ve seized sufficient land.
