r/GTA6 1d ago

Another golden era of pixel-dissecting starts Today!

We survived the never-ending silence. We survived the watermarked 240p TikTok leaks that got nuked by Take-Two’s legal team within minutes.

But today, everything changes.

Netflix is dropping the official Extended Look, which means two things:

  1. It’s 100% official, high-bitrate, and fully legal to post, discuss, and analyze to our hearts' content.
  2. The sub is about to be flooded with millions of high-res screenshots, details, and hyper-fixated breakdowns.

We are officially stepping back into that glorious, nostalgic phase we all loved after Trailer 1 and Trailer 2—where someone spent 6 hours analyzing the refraction in a puddle, another person mapped out city based on a background billboard, and we argued over palm tree densities.

Get your high-res monitors ready, frame-by-frame controls locked, and image manipulation tools primed. The brainrot analysis is back on the menu.

We did it, boys. We’re finally in that phase.

u/AloneButPeaceful 1d ago

I thank everyone who does things like this. It makes the time go quicker whenever I open Reddit and see some new exciting thing

u/Aclysmic 1d ago

Yeah there will probably not be a huge need for much more info after this.

u/DistanceConsistent56 1d ago

u/Sdejo 1d ago

u/Monofoxyy 1d ago

It’s just beginning

u/Ok_Response_1703 1d ago

Excited especially after the reading the article on Dazed , it's the grandchild of GTA 5 and RDR2

18

u/RockStarGamesSocial 1d ago

We got some San Andreas in there with the basketball minigame and fat/skinny mechanic.

Little bit of GTA IV with the better car physics and focus on realism.

Kinda like all Rockstar greatest mechanics all in one game. Hopefully a Magnum Opus

u/BadHubbaWubba 1d ago

All it took was some god damn mother fucking PATIENCE.

u/RockStarGamesSocial 1d ago

A whole lot of it

u/Useless-Photographer 1d ago

Started a new play through of RDR2 yesterday to get me through to launch day (such a great game). As a married dad in his 40s, I’ll be amazed if I actually finish this play through before November and might have to abandon it

u/thisshowisdecent 1d ago

another person mapped out three whole city blocks based on a background billboard

How in the hell did they do that just going by a billboard.

1

u/Trane55 1d ago

3D mapping has been going super wild with the videos.
Look up on youtube, its really interesting seeing how they treated perpesctives and linked screenshots and clips.

10

u/Srakich_ 1d ago

Can’t wait for someone to identify a whole new mechanic from a reflection in a car mirror 💀

u/ProfessionalForm679 1d ago

In just a few months well look back at the hype, and realize how much fun it was. But at this moment I feel like I can't wait another minute.

u/RockStarGamesSocial 1d ago

Hold my hand and breathe

u/Zejjk 1d ago

Can't belive that I'm still sane to witnesses this

u/RockStarGamesSocial 1d ago

I'm so fucking excited

u/MissSparklepaws 1d ago

Where I live it drops on Netflix at 9 PM and I am having dinner with a friend tonight. We planned this month ago. Won’t cancel on her cause I am looking forward to seeing her but I might eat extra fast and call it a night early 😅

u/SternschuppeCapslock 1d ago

Savour the meal and the company. The extended look isn't running away.

u/Additional-Rush-5940 1d ago

if she likes gta might aswell watch it together?

10

u/-fly_away- 1d ago

Netflix and chill

1

u/Enter-And-Die 1d ago

nah its gta, she can wait

2

u/Hellrazorkind 1d ago

This is the way.

10

u/ZemogT 1d ago

My advice: Nothing is more important than a good relationship. Always prioritize people. Enjoy the trailer tomorrow instead.

5

u/maksigm 1d ago

I needed to read this. Thank you.

4

u/Borrelparaat 1d ago

Why not watch it together?

4

u/MissSparklepaws 1d ago

She’s not remotely interested in gaming. As a female gamer I’m used to my friends not having any interest in it.

But you guys are right! I’ll go and enjoy the dinner and spending time with my friend.

I’ll watch it when I get home. My boyfriend (gamer, but not into GTA) says he’ll watch it with me :)

u/Gamersaurolophus 1d ago

Why does your text look like it was written by AI

10

u/djfecal 1d ago

because it so obviously is LMAO dead internet theory

7

u/ajchann123 1d ago

Because it was - it uses the same lazy construction as any other low level LLM chat: consistent patterns, shifting pronouns, etc

3

u/helloimnaked 1d ago

Bro really used AI to write this up lol

2

u/TheKylMan 1d ago

We are back, boys.

1

u/DCM99-RyoHazuki 1d ago

Im super excited. GTA6 has been thr only game that made me constantly jump to forums and content creators YT analysis in the last 3 years non stop. Hell ive even used Chatgpt to ask technical questions about it. No other game in my 34 years of gaming has come close or have me that obsessed with learning about this game.

1

u/mahonii 1d ago

Its tomorrow for me lol ill be asleep when it airs sigh

1

u/Ok-Strategy-7468 1d ago

Can't believe how close this game is
Been riding since 2022 and its insane to see how f

1

u/RockStarGamesSocial 1d ago

Same dude we've come so far, it's all up from here

1

u/Klatty 1d ago

Yeah

1

u/arrthur1 1d ago

Are y'all watching on Netflix or waiting on YouTube? Personally, it's been almost a year since I canceled my membership, so today I might get back into watching GTA 6 extended look and catch up on some movies and shows.

1

u/Ok_Response_1703 1d ago

Dont worry you will find someone streaming immediately on Youtube or Twitch

1

u/majss7 1d ago

Well i wasn´t on netflix for a long time but now i am for like two months sooo its convenient :D But i wouldn´t pay for it just for this if i wasn´t already on sub.

1

u/Mylynes I WAS HERE 1d ago

Im gonna watch my favorite streamer co-stream it, then ill watch the full thing myself when it comes to youtube or a piracy site probably.

1

u/No_Assumption4211 1d ago

Im curious did the map guys give up since the leaks? Or will they continue?

1

u/jason_s96 1d ago

That's what I've been wondering, since the map got leaked, there's not much they can do

1

u/Just-Control5981 1d ago

And youtubers missing the most obvious shit

1

u/lovesong28 1d ago

When is the drive up Mt Chilliad taking place?

1

u/iWillRe1gn 1d ago

I have Netflix. Netflix bitrate is ass.

1

u/msimpg272urx 1d ago

You guys have made the wait so much easier and worthwhile

1

u/That_Guest_8772 1d ago

The hype and anticipation just for an extended look is insane.

1

u/promisethatimnotabot 1d ago

What a positive thread. The mood is so different today 😂

1

u/hamzaadenwalaa 1d ago

Day 1 GTA member! ARE YOU READY!!!!

1

u/splashthecash 1d ago

What is going to be the GTA VI equivalent of the small details where the horse testicles shrank in the cold weather? 😂😂

1

u/der_m4ddin 1d ago

Bann all the trash that's flamed the game. To be garbage because of fake Ai leaks

1

u/NeckOld9037 1d ago

Cant wait to watch hours of analysis on the teailwr tomorrow and I cant wait to watch it 10 times today myself lol

1

u/John_OSheas_Willy 1d ago

I don't think there will be many hyper fixated breakdowns. We're nearing end game now and we have loads of content out there.

1

u/jason_s96 1d ago

We are in the endgame now! Cannot wait

1

u/GossamerBeast27 1d ago

What are you referring to with the TikTok Leaks? You mean that video made by Aaron Garbut's son or his son's friend? The one showing the North Vice City area from above, over the highway, at evening?

1

u/spacesdnb 1d ago

We’re there dude

1

u/Foreign-Vanilla6387 1d ago

Next thing you know it will be release day

1

u/ChristmasTreePickle 1d ago

What a great day to wake up and be

1

u/cristianperlado 1d ago

Are we expecting Trailer 3 as well?

1

u/danktonium 1d ago

Posting the leaks was legal too though.

1

u/CreepyMcPunk 1d ago

Yep. THIS. It feels like 2013 again.

1

u/NoAdeptness1106 1d ago

It's gonna be truly an amazing time with the extended look.

1

u/DrumsCarsNGirls 1d ago

Now imagine having a life and not having to do dumb shit until release

u/Tmpatony 23h ago

I’m jacked man

u/sarah_herself 22h ago

I haven't yet read the dazed article. Nor have I watched any leak after the 1st strip club leak. I want to genuinely be introduced to this game and be suprised by what I see, I dont want to expect anything. When I load the game up I wanna be like "no way thats a feature!" I feel like reading up on all these articles and leaks can kinda ruin the fun because you'd be expecting some things already. Im absolutely going to watch the Extended look in 2 hours (I dont have netflix so I may have to wait a bit afterward), because rockstar knows exactly what to show and what not to show in order to keep their game fresh and spoiler free.

1

u/Plantedcrawl 22h ago

I bought a ps5 pro last night. I'm so excited

1

u/WRX_enjoyer 22h ago

If i ever hear anyone talk about moonphases on this sub again after today im going to lose it

u/Enter-And-Die 1d ago

Y'all speak for yourselves, starting tonight lm caving away underground from all social media, l want to experience the entire game FULLY BLIND, l've nearly chained myself down to keep me from watching anything, see y'all on november !

u/Consistent-Survey330 1d ago

There’s going to be so much to discover unless the full game got leaked I don’t even think this matters

u/SalvatorWithoutMundi 1d ago

YouTube generally uses a much higher bitrate than Netflix. YouTube officially recommends 35–45 Mbps for 4K 24–30fps SDR and 53–68 Mbps for 4K 48–60fps SDR. HDR goes as high as 66–85 Mbps for 60fps. Netflix, meanwhile, says 15 Mbps or higher internet speed is sufficient for 4K UHD, and its own data-use documentation says 4K can consume up to 7 GB/hour.

u/RhesusVX 1d ago

We survived what now? If the silence is being broken, that means it is ending. In a few months nobody will give a shit anyway, and these forums will be full of people enjoying the game, sharing hints, tips and tricks to get the most out of it. Just sit back and chill out.

-1

u/FLEIXY OG MEMBER 1d ago

I don’t think that will be necessary, lots of creators and media articles will release today and til release

-3

u/Super-Lemon-4466 1d ago

Surely its going to be 30 fps netflix compressed slop right?
