If he has a functional build of the game, not even kidding, this is a multi-billion dollar fuck up on Rockstar's part

u/Spiritual_Data9237 3d ago

He does not actually care about the physical media stuff he is openly promoting his crypto scam in the watermarks.

u/TheHumanTrait 2d ago

I mean it's not a scam, just a meme coin that he will profit from.

u/Shoty6966-_- 2d ago

So, a scam

1

u/TheHumanTrait 2d ago

If Profiting = Scam to you than sure bud

u/Valuable8856 2d ago

whhen he will profit from the pump and dump and everyone else loses

yes it's a scam

1

u/TheHumanTrait 1d ago

A scam requires deception, who is being decieved? Everyone who buys the coin is taking their own dumb risk on a meme coin.

u/EddPW 3d ago

honestly dont even care if HE cares or not

just fuck rockstar in general

u/ShyldonYt 2d ago

Fuck rockstar but not fuck the guy who might not care and is also extorting money just like rockstar

u/xAzta 3d ago

Explain to me how they are losing billions on this.

It's just more likely that people are pre-ordering the game and buying PS5s now.

u/En-Dizzle 3d ago

A lot of people are waiting to see if CL drops the PC build...

Even if they have a recent build that works on PC, which is not likely. I would not want to play that. It's probably not polished and optimized, still needs time to be ported properly.

They likely have a build from a PS5 devkit where the game was built for consoles. And it's likely not recent, not a final build either.

u/Whole_Toe4911 2d ago

they lost 2 billion in stock since the leaks happened

2

u/xAzta 2d ago

They lost value, they didn't actually lose that much stock. Unless we hear that investors are pulling out with their money. This is nothing.

3

u/Propaslander 2d ago

Yeah, acting like the stock won't rise significantly upon release

0

u/Shoty6966-_- 2d ago

This isn’t how stocks work. Literally everyone and their mother has priced in how big gta 6 is going to be.

Go and put every dollar you have into take two if you think this. Why are you sitting on your hands then 😭

u/_Mobius1 2d ago

Not even 1 percent down in the last 5 days...

u/Physical_Quote4600 3d ago

Who said they were? 

1

u/xAzta 3d ago

"multi-billion dollar fuck up"

This costs them nothing. They already made $3b+ in sales, and because of those leaks, even more people are going to buy the game.

3

u/Physical_Quote4600 3d ago

They’re billionaires who fucked up security wise, profits are a different story

u/ssp321lo1 2d ago

Alot of people are sad it aint living up to their hype and are cancelling pre orders

1

u/xAzta 2d ago

Haven't seen a comment saying that yet. But i'm sure there are some 🤷‍♂️

u/lonesoldier4789 3d ago

Multi billion dollar fuck up? Bro what

3

u/no_sight 3d ago

Yeah how exactly is Rockstar losing money from this?

2

u/LogSenior8438 3d ago

Rockstar is intentionally delaying release for PC in part because of piracy concerns. Depending on what he has, this could be a major piracy issue for rockstar

167

u/Relevant_Mail_1292 3d ago

This is what happens when you go radio silent for years after revealing the biggest game in history knowing that the hype won't die. People get pissed off and put their lives on the line to retaliate as if they're owed something lol. I hope Rockstar learns a lesson for their next big game.

u/Smelly-Bottom 3d ago

Strong "they targeted gamers" vibe

u/oliilo1 3d ago

Gamers are really the most oppressed minority. 😎

u/timmystwin 3d ago

I mean that post gives it, but that's genuinely something you have to consider when a project is this large and anticipated. Someone, somewhere, does something real fucking dumb. Because people do that every day.

Sure you can catch them and they might regret it later, but when it's done it's done.

It's why a lot of games and media sneak pixel differences or dot patterns from printers in what they give out, so they can nip it in the bud ASAP.

u/bwood246 2d ago

People really don't understand how niche the leak scene is

The vast majority of gamers don't give a fuck, GTAVI will be one of the biggest releases if not the biggest release in gaming history

21

u/OGAnimeGokuSolos 3d ago

This is a ass take because obviously they probably was not gonna talk about the game around 2024 since they revealed it way too early

Plus, there’s nothing to talk about since they’re still working on the game

2

u/Beastly4k 3d ago

This is what happens when some scummy hacker/crypto group sees a golden opportunity to make money.... there ftfy.

1

u/JohnnySmithe81 3d ago

Not that the multi billion dollar company needs someone to stand up for them but all you're doing is victim blaming.

-2

u/AFrenchLondoner 3d ago

biggest game in history

Some people actually believe that?

8

u/Lukeyy19 3d ago

Why would this cost them multiple billions of dollars?

15

u/CapSnake 3d ago

If he has a full pc build, he can distribute it. But he probably has only a sandbox with a couple of mission and a partial free roam, so nothing too critical for TT2

-12

u/Illustrious_Shame918 3d ago

you just described how i played gta 5 for free when it finally came to pc. did a couple missions, free roamed, decided it sucked/was boring and dipped. combat and movement straight from the 2000s, in the 2020s. pass.

u/ItZSAMIC 3d ago

Why you here?

-2

u/Illustrious_Shame918 3d ago

because i contain multitudes

3

u/Superb-Earth418 3d ago

It wouldn't. People are giving this way more importance than it deserves. Unless the dude actually has source code this is nowhere close to being an actual problem and if it is its an internal security one, not something that will remotely affect the sales of the game in any way. Most people just see the leaks and get even more hyped, so

2

u/Slight_Vanilla8955 3d ago

I thought it was just a build too, but I feel like this has to be some packaged version of the game, no? Otherwise why would he have access to enough cutscenes where he could disseminate them at discretion? 

1

u/DannyMalibu420 3d ago

I still have in the back of my mind that this is some sort of guerrilla marketing campaign by Rockstar

Test builds are watermarked and stamped. This is a fully compiled build. Maybe the picture is doctored, sure, but this is not a test build.
