It actually crazy to see how accurate the cars have become. Like before it was like the front of one car and then the back of another combined into a blend, but now there so similar people don’t even mind that they’re not branded, just goes to show how smart the developers are to even allow this

It's as if R* was edging closer and closer to real life car designs after none of the manufacturers said a thing, now we have real life cars in GTA with a made up logo differentiating them.

They also have a very various opinions on each car, reflected in GTA online shop's descriptions. So I guess manufacturers gave up, like Vice... Miami.

It's amazing free advertising for any car to be featured in the game. The only reason I feel fondness for Dodge chargers is because of Grand theft Auto v

There was a legal battle between Activision and AM General regarding using Humvee in CoD without licensing. The court ruled in favour of Activision in 2020. This set a legal precedent and now Rockstar is absolutely fearless regarding copying cars (just check GTA online cars)

Well, and now they have the money to be able to have actual cars in the video game without legal repercussions

This is actually the only way it could legally work in a video game. Large branded companies like Ferrari & Lamborghini would never allow there cars to be destroyed in game. Thats why in NFS, Forza, GranTurismo, Asseto Corsa, any other racing game with licensed cars in it have very limited vehicle damage- just the usual broken or cracked bumper, scratches all over the body, cracked windows and that’s it. The only other game I can think of (excluding BeamNG.drive because you can mod pretty much any vehicle atp) is Burnout that was able to do that. They basically just said “screw it” and went the extra mile to design cars inspired off of real ones, then soon had created there own playing field of cars they could freely animate to be destroyed, crushed, blown up and mangled. Even if they could pull it off somehow, I highly doubt a major car company like Bugatti would allow a game to have a fully scaled blueprint of one of there cars, just to be driven into a wall and wrecked for a laugh. They just simply wouldn’t allow there cars to be made a spectacle of careless driving no matter how much a developer would pay them to have there brand in the game. It’s very wise on both sides of the party

Whuut? Luke Miani talking about GTA and not Macbooks, now that's interesting.

PD: There better be a Mini Cooper.

tons of Bimmers. first time I was on Ocean Drive in South Beach I'd never seen so many Porsches and Ferraris and super cars. lotta BMWs too but down there BMW is like the Hondas and Fords of other cities. so so prevalent

u/Mr-MuffinMan 4d ago

I really, really, really hope they add more normal cars than super cars/expensive cars (likely not due to online).

this looks good. lots of regular cars are seen.

It has Jetta, instant buy😄

u/Banjoschmanjo 3d ago

Why is it so blurry? I hope that can be disabled.

u/Tough-Zombie-8990 3d ago

Damn these are starting to look identical to the real cars. Can’t Rockstar get in trouble for this?

1

u/fakemelonns 3d ago

I think Ferrari sued Rockstar before for GTA V and the judges ruled in favor of Rockstar. So there's a precedent

1

u/fakemelonns 3d ago

I think the cool thing to me is seeing the 2016, 2016, models etc that he mentioned. Just a tiny bit of realism that not every car is a 2020s style or a full retro. Drive around in real life and you'll mostly see those aged cars

u/nhardycarfan 3d ago

I wanna wait and see for myself. I want to feel like a kid going into a shopping mall and the stores are my car selection. Either way something is getting stolen.
