I still remember picking up my pre-ordered copy from GameStop the day of its release. They had yellow police tape over the door and windows as decoration, but for a second when I was walking up to it I thought something happened and the store was now a crime scene, lol
Badger, do you remember on the game informer edition of GTA 5 that was released in 2012, about how they were talking about the graphics and individual blades of grass? It's crazy to think that the PS4 and Xbox one version was maybe originally going to be the 360 and PS3 version, they talked about alot in that magazine, saying that things were changing every second so it's hard to release a GTA game within the times..
man i remember doing the same thing. I was in 8th grade and i convinced my parents to let me skip school the next day and to drive me to the midnights release. Good times
I can understand the cursing limit. Some TV shows try to go the 18+ "mature" route and curse as much as possible, and in the end it just end up feeling like 5th grade recess. I can see said limit as a writing challenge and as a way too keep swearing somewhat impactful throughout the story
In my GTA Forums days, I remember when Michaels character was called Albert Da Silva (probably just a prototype name). I also remember when the first trailer dropped, everyone was convinced that the guy running from the cops was CJ. And when first pictures of Trevor were shown, people hated him and the forum was full of messages like "I want to be cool, not a hillbilly junkie!" How the times have changed. edit: One more story I have to share from GTA Forums: There was that one video (which I think is still in the game as an in-universe commercial) that R* released on their website where an npc was shown sitting in a wheelchair outside a hospital. This one guy got really excited and started threads going "Wheelchairs in GTAV CONFIRMED!!!!", and seriously expected a realistic recovery period being part of the game. And then when the game released and there were no wheelchairs, the guy got really mad and felt being lied to by R*, and vowed to never buy a R* product ever again. So he basically hyped himself up with nothing but conjecture and speculation that HE came up with, and got angry that it didn't happen. It was so funny to me.
I remember there being a lot of speculation on having to break a character out of the prison that is in the game. Due to the presence of it in screen shots before release. There were also so many people that were saying a couple weeks after release that 'GTA IV was so much better'. I honestly think that was mostly nostalgia, and that we will see a similar thing with GTA VI comes out.
@@DatamasterCorporation EDIT: I misunderstood Datamaster's comment actually. I usually get replies every week calling games 'just nostalgia' and it gets very annoying. This was not one of them, so I apologise I find calling things just 'nostalgia' is kinda insulting. I personally had every reason to be more nostalgic for GTA 5 than 4 but despite really pushing boundaries I still did not find it as good as 4. there is some things it does better than 5 that some people prefer. (eg better map, characters, etc) I didn't even have the thought of GTA 4 is a bit better until years later
Man I love it when we get to see early builds of games most people never even know about. If I ever had a video game company, I would want to make a documentary from start to finish about the development, and I would even let the public have access to our earliest builds so that they could see what made it in and what had to be cut.
@@NightRose7w7 I don't understand why they keep the earlier builds a big secret, like wouldn't you want everyone to know how different the game was way before it released??
@@saulbueno5640they just don't care enough to give out early builds especially when they're often lost or require specific connections to an internal server
documentaries cost a lot of time and money and generally aren't worth the expenses in the execs eyes, see previous comment as well for why old builds don't get released as much as id love to have more prototype versions of games like tf2 it sadly just doesn't happen without a leaker which is illegal
I love it too, it’s crazy how many people don’t realize how game development works, like when 6 got leaked people were saying it looked identical to 5…like ya and 5 looked identical to 4 early on lmao
Fun fact about the cut Heist mission: a remnant of this exists in the dialogue for the mission “Caida Libre” where Trevor suggests scoping out his mansion. Another fun fact: Some of the mission in the Online are actually repurposed versions of scrapped story mode missions. For example: The EMP setup mission for the Humane Labs Raid was originally a story mission given to Michael from Solomon Richards.
@@MikoyanGurevichMiG21 That's also kinda untrue, the only thing that doomsday heist shares with SP DLC is three interiors (Submarine and IAA Facility/Server Farm) and some ideas like Cliffford, everything else is new
@@HeySlickThatsMeIn GTA V’s trailer (I forget which one) there’s a clip of the Hydra shooting a missile at a police helicopter and hitting it, causing it to explode. That’s likely a remnant of said cut mission. In the game files, there’s I think text and/or audio referring to Solomon wanting Michael to steal said Hydra to have it as a prop. The mission was more than likely repurposed (and of course altered to fit the co-op aspect) as one of the setup missions for GTA Online.
I remember getting GTA V for Christmas of 2013, for the PlayStation 3. It took forever to install, but it was a blast - what an amazing experience. I was 17 back then, 27 now - but I wish I could go back and re-live that first experience playing through it. Oh how time flies...
Same, but my experience was a lot different because once I got it at midnight launch and a couple of hours into it I dropped it. The game was a absolute downgrade from the previous GTA games
Franklin at 8:01 saying "My bad Pony" instead of "My bad Homie" is the funniest shit ever 😂 too bad horses were cut from the game, it looked like a fun idea
It's so sad that the story mode dlc's were cut. I would love to see a zombie dlc. I watched an interview with Steven Ogg recently and he told that Rockstar was making some extra content for Trevor, but he didn't know what happened. Maybe he was talking about the DLC.
It's been speculated that all the Single Player DLC was repurposed into GTA Online; Trevor's segment is believed to be what we know as The Doomsday Heist and I'm willing to bet money that the Los Santos Drug Wars DLC was also meant for Trevor but Ogg recently voiced his disdain with the character and wanted to distance himself from it. Dax acts and talks alot like Trevor. They have similar mannerisms too.
Me too... but make it online too. Imagine the whole city without electricity, no lights working, everything being dark... you and your online friends having to use flashlights and night vision to reach a safe place. 95% of cars sitting dead roadside, if you find a car, you will to drive through waves of zombies and its with limited speed & fuel. Hardest mission going from the docks in the south to a bunker far in the North, mostly on foot. You could plan your routes through certain streets, going through train tunnels, and so on. My 15yr old self would have loved it.
Rockstar has talked about how despite GTA4 and RDR1 being massive successives, their respective DLCs undersold signficantly. Like, at most, both Episodes from Liberty City and Undead Nightmare sold 2 million copies each. Rockstar gave 2 main reasons as to why. The first was the fact that these DLCs released almost ane ntire year after their base games. Most of the audience would have played the singleplayer and moved on and weren't interested in the DLC. The second was that most people don't actually finish Rockstar games. GTA4, V, RDR, RDR2 all have between 20-30% completion ratings. People who haven't completed the game won't feel inclinded to spend more on the game. In any case, it is almost certain that elements from GTAV's DLC were reworked into Online.
@@FraserSouris It's all of question about having a player base that is going to buy DLCs. Rockstar's player base is used to have the full game and that's it and Rockstar themselves never really attempted to change that, because it would take a lot of long-time support for the games, which isn't really their MO. So I guess it makes sense that they only went that route in Online because online players except long-time support otherwise it dies out.
I remember coming home from school and seeing my collector's edition of GTA V sitting on the couch. I opened it up and waited for it to install then played thru prologue and first mission. Then I let my brother play a bit since I had to go to guitar lessons. I thought about GTA V the entire time on the drive over there and at the actual lesson itself. Edit to fix some grammar I messed up.
I was 15 when GTA 5 released. 25 now. Man I feel old. I still remember how eager I was for school to end that day, had alot of people talking about it. Even ran into one of my teachers at GameStop buying it
It's weird, I remember more when the first trailer dropped than I do about the release. I even remember a commercial on TV for GTA IV more than the release for V.
3:28 These are definitely npcs for gta iv. The npc "boy3s" is used in Kitty0706's video "Introducing Tommy Garcia" as the main character for that video.
I believe the swearing limit was a story/character reasoning behind it. When you see characters in media constantly just swearing it becomes all they’re really known to do which overshadows all the other things about them. Rockstar obviously doesn’t want their characters to just be known as some swearing high score attempts (very thin line I must say). So they just limited it to only 5000 swear words per cutscene.
3:15 looking at the texture names. i believe those were probably very early images they took for the GTAO character creator. on PS3/360 you chose the grandparents of your mom and dad. and then your mom and dad as well iirc. which seems to line up. like the mom and dad ones were for the grandparents at that stage and the boy and girl ones were your parents.
One thing that annoys me so much is that in the early builds of V and the firsts trailers the vegetation is MUCH MORE DEEP, but they cut it since it was too much for the PS3/360 to handle, and they didn't add it back in the PS4/ONE/PC release neither in the Expanded and Enhanced
The entire game was basically built from the old hardware of PS3 and Xbox 360, and the game only received more contents over the years without receiving any gameplay and mechanics improvement/overhaul onto PS4/Xbox One beyond. Basically the current version of GTA 5 that people play is just a port from the original PS3/Xbox 360 game.
Fun fact that most people don't know, and I have evidence of this on my gaming channel - you can actually hide in the bushes from the cops and they can't find you.
The story being rewritten last minute sounds really strange, but also fitting. I wonder if Lamar's cut plot would've been set somewhere around the halfway point of the game, since between the (removed) Sharmoota job and Merryweather heist there's a bizarre chunk of the game where nothing of consequence happens for several hours.
I mean, I think the game is great the way it is, but overall it has a feel that something is missing, most likely due to logistical reasons ingolving the actors, as we've seen here and other reasons.
@@abemigos9281 Well, for starters, the entire Sharmoota Job string as well as F and T supposedly working with Michael on his Solomon Richards missions.
To be fair, it's rare to actually find a game that wasn't changed signficiantly partway through development. Almost every game changes either due to practicality or due to new information or logictical issues. If anything, this is actually a good thing because it allows development to be flexible and adapt if something isn't working out or is causing issues. A good case study is actually the Deus Ex series. Warren Spectre, director of Deus Ex 1, has talked about how they developed a "game bible" for Deus Ex 1 before development started. But by the end of development, only around half of that bible was used in the final product. The other half was either changed or removed and the game was better for it. He gives the example of the game's opening level. Originally, the game was going to start very slow paced and have the player meet with every NPC in their organization before being sent out on their first mission. in order to properly set up the story, characters and setting. But Spectre noted how this made the experience drag. So he swapped it out with the second level and reworked it so the game started with a sandbox mission on Liberty Island and the whole "meet the squad" part can later and was shorter. The end result was that while the game may stumble to explain its story at first, its gameplay makes a strong first impression and is much more replayable. In contrast, 2011's Deus Ex Human Revolution actually operated the oppoiste way. The game was planned to a tee beforehand and devs followed their "game bible" as closely as possible. But this ended up causing issues in the final version because even if something wasn't working out, it couldn't be changed. Human Revoution starts by causing the same issue that Deus Ex 1 noticed and avoided by starting with a long drawn out unskippable cutscene introducing the story, characters and plot and therefore drags on every repeat playthrough. Also the bosses.
@@FraserSouris Yeah, but with R* it's special because they're a very opaque dev team and company. The production of V is very mysterious and I'd love to find out more about the process and it's prototypes.
I really hope GTA 6 is big enough to actually have a reason to use planes, private jets and stuff like that. Can you imagine in real life the trip takes 4 hours but in game it takes 4 minutes to travel. I’m just obsessed with commercial flying and really hope they actually create a map large enough to realistically fly across the map.
I wasn’t old enough to remember the Lauch Day of GTA 5 in 2013, but I’ve been old enough to remember it’s third launch in 2022. Here’s to 10 years of an otherwise fantastic game!
3:14 the early meshes in the back are crazy early from likely late 2009. As the buildings dont even have textures and the palm trees are just polygons. Crazy stuff
In particular the dark-skinned bald guy appears to be standing _underneath_ the map, or at least inside a building, there's so much "blue hell" visible behind him.
you know, it's kinda weird that there isn't any official behind the scenes or making of videos for this game aside from the fact that it's one of the most successful pieces of media in the world. that or we have to look up in various places for little fact, or watching videos dedicated to this topic. although I know they don't really gonna do this(that and the fact that they always being lack in communication with fans in the past), but I hope they will make some behind the scenes or retrospective video, talking about their games, have the developers and the voice actors be in it. you know, like those behind the scenes of a movie.
@@Meriato yeah I always feels weird about thier lack of communication. even big studios like EA, Ubisoft, Sony, Nintendo have some communication to the fans.
I don’t know how crazy this will sound but apparently there was a live action ad filmed in Mexico and on a wall there was a five/V banknote logo on a banner. I recently rediscovered it today but I can only find photos of the set, if anyone knows anything that came of it, itd be great find out because it’s technically lost media.
Hola soy de México y recuerdo la filtración de la filmación de ese comercial en 2012. El comercial fue hecho en un estacionamiento de un edificio mediano en el centro de la Ciudad de México. En el estacionamiento había un logo como tú dices, un hombre tenía un traje como Michael y la calle de a lado estaba cerrada porque había autos que simulaban un accidente. En los foros se especulaba mucho sobre quién lo hacía o si era un montaje de un fan. Al final de concluyó que era un comercial hecho por Sony ya que en esa época ya habían hecho un comercial live-action de los protagonistas de franquicias de Sony como el crossover de Uncharted / God of War / InFamous. Además desde 2010 Sony quería ganar audiencia en Latinoamérica haciendo comerciales ahí entre ellos un conocido anuncio hecho en México o Argentina donde personas arrojan aparatos en una catapulta para promocionar el Ps3. La razón por la que no se supo más del anuncio no se sabe pero tengo la hipótesis de que Rockstar no iba a permitir una colaboración sin su permiso ya que nunca habían hecho esa clase de comerciales con sus franquicias (el cortometraje de GTA 2 no cuenta). Eso explicaría porque jamas hubo un comunicado oficial sobre la colaboración y porque tampoco continúo la filmación. Curiosamente Rockstar dio permiso a Sony para hacer un paquete exclusivo de GTA V + Ps3 Super Slim en la salida del juego. Espero te haya servido, es lo poco que recuerdo de la época.
@@Silvermon ¡Muchas gracias por la informacion! Que Rockstar games no permita ninguna promoción cruzada tiene mucho sentido de por qué la noticia del comercial había desaparecido. Utilicé el traductor de Google, así que lamento los errores. English below: Thank you so much for the information! Rockstar games not allowing any cross promotion makes a lot of sense of why the news of the commercial had disappeared. I used google translate, so I’m sorry for any mistakes.
Its honestly baffling that channels with such just weird topics exist. 99% of people do not care about 10 development facts about gta V but I do! And theres a channel here for people like me who are just super interested in the development and early concepts of games in general. Thank you badger!
11:37 I'm glad they limited swearing because as evident in tons of adult shows, swearing too much can often stifle creativity. It's completely understandable and I'm very glad they took this step. Swearing should be used to make a point and not used 24/7 to the point it loses its meaning/power. ifykwim.
Fact 3. My friend and I used to do a ton of police roleplaying in the xbox 360 days. We were blown away at the fact that there were good guy bad guy type of roles. And that the sessions would be similar to GTA IV.
I first played GTA V on my PS3 on launch day. It took me seven months to finish the campaign while starting out in the Online. I'm so happy for all the memories, laughs, friendships, late-night talks, heists, jobs, races, and fun I had with this game. Rockstar is not the company I once trusted, but it did give me a decade of memories with this game.
yeah it definitely feels like Blaine County was just meant to be the area around Paleto Bay. The Great Ocean Highway bridge over Raton Canyon has signs that say "Blaine County" implying that's where the county border was supposed to start. But now it is generally agreed upon that Blaine County reaches all the way down to Route 68, where it borders LS County.
Still baffles me that my mom took my 13 y/o ass to the midnight release to pickup my preordered copy. She had no idea what the hype was about, but knew it would make me happy. Many good memories have came from this game alone over the past 10 years.
There's no evidence that the alien dlc was ever being worked on but it was considered, the Zombie DLC was for all three characters while Agent DLC was exclusive for Trevor based on leftover files
The quantity of alien content both in the base game and online is strong evidence imo. It's too much to be a one-off joke, they had some kind of lore in mind, and an Alien-centric campaign explains it perfectly.
I still remember that I wanted a Playstation 3 for my birthday with GTA 5 because my birthday was the day after the release. Unfortunately, I was disappointed, but 2 years later I was able to play the PC version, even though my laptop was far too weak at the time. I was at least able to play it a little. How the time flies :D
I wish they kept the round minimap with the health, armor, and ability bats circling around them. The final UI is such a nightmare to read with the miniscule health and armor bars
Fact #3 is pretty interesting. It sounds very much like APB and I wonder if Rockstar backtracked that idea after seeing the reception of that game. For anyone interested, APB was a 100 mil money pit.
Fact 10 might be because of the international markets being favored in having little to no swearing in the dialogues. Translations might be tricky, and it can come off as vulgar, having no swear language can also facilitate to keep the focus on the nuances in the story.
3:30 - These images were probably placeholders for their system of choosing your team, for the big heists. And probably for other testing puposes where "mugshots" were being used.
The swearing thing makes sense when you think about how none of the sex and violence is real. But the swearing is. You can’t fake swearing like you can fake sex and gore.
@@iAmTaki it's because there's nothing to love about this cash grab of a game. GTA v is a downgrade from IV and people like you overrate the shit out of it with out even having the slightest knowledge of what makes a game good. So please forgive me for invalidating your little feelings.
@@berzerklikeyou4504 damn... I'm so sorry for you. I wish you all the best, I hope you find the happiness and meaning you need in your life. After you sort that out, you may understand that people like different things than you and you don't need to disrespect them because of it.
@@iAmTaki First of all stop acting like a victim. Secondly I don't have a problem with your personal preferences towards a game, but when you act the fool and become defensive over a disagreement instead of arguing or clarifying your opinion on the matter at hand you instead shift the problem elsewhere. I was hoping you might get into the reasons why you love this game so much and why you would watch hours of useless information about this game unconditionally. I just wanted to find out why people like you regardless of sex or age, that when a game that has tarnished a legacy before it, can make you lost in emotion and nostalgia with out even asking yourself what made you "love" this game? I will give you an example, I LOVE Halo 2. Halo 2 is a masterpiece because the devs put their heart and soul into the game and even though it had lots of missing content the game still to this day holds up because unlike GTA v or any other modern game it was meant to entertain and give meaning to the game and gamers so when looked back at it it was not just nostalgia, but actual fond memories.
The swearing limit is due to the fact that in other countries a certain amount of swearing gets the game an AO rating - which is a death sentence for videogames. No retailer will stock it.
I remember the announcement for the first trailer in 2011, I was amazed when I see it. Now ten years have been passed since launch day, and no GTA VI. We know that the next game is in production, let's wait for the next announcement, I hope that it don't take soo long from now. Excellent video! Best Regards, from Brazil.
I really wish we could go back to a time before Rockstar realized how crazy financially successful GTA online could be. I feel like Rockstar only wants to make single player experiences to get you to buy the game in the first place and eventually try GTA online at this point.
Yooo! Love this kinda stuff! Development details and such. Love the gta actors so much! Super interesting! Great details too! Great voice! Good stuff, man! 😁😎👌🏻what's the soothing music at the end?! I love it!
I find it funny that nobody mentions that the foliage in the game had to be completely redone, back on the ps3/Xbox360 ports. Back then R* struggled to get the game running properly. A leak said it ran at 13 fps. therefore all of the foliage was removed. All the foliage was then placed, but reduced significantly. If you take a look at some of the screenshots from the portfolios, it shows the old much more dense foliage, even the original trailer does it. The end result ended up being more empty spots, dotted all around the map. The saddest part, that build carried over from xbox360/ps3 to the later ps4/xbox one (although i got upgraded significantly), and now series SX and PS5. We never witnessed gta folliage at its glory.
I remember when I was modding San Andreas PC I added more trees and shrubs to the abandoned airport to make it seem more abandoned and it looked so nice.
I remember how PS3 version had like 6 character slots with all of them except two being locked away... now if im not mistaken, with RDR2 we only have one character. Makes me wonder about GTA VI.
It would still run at 13fps today. Ultra Grass quality on PC is an insane performance hit as is, something about how they fundamentally render it is fucked.
I was there at the midnight release. The whole shopping centre was closed, dark and empty except for one shop which was allowed to stay open to sell the game. I still have my pre-order poster!
I think GTA V still has beta assets in the game, with regards to the textures. When you're looking at different things in-game, and change the LOD (level of detail) of things like signs, the textures become blurrier, but the texture itself changes. Some change very little, while others change a lot. It's like they rendered the LOD of all the textures in the game at different times, instead of at the end with the final textures. This is something I'd seen years ago and I have never seen anybody mention online since. In honestly, I don't know if it's a known thing or not.
I’m so glad they scrapped the idea of the CnC multiplayer for the Online we got. There’s no way this game survives as long as it has with that style of multiplayer. I enjoyed it in the smaller GTA IV, but I do not think it would fit in GTA V the way it was in IV and it seems as though that’s what they were going for at first. Whether you like or dislike the Online mode, it has allowed such an awesome game to thrive for a decade.
I just realized at 2:19 if you look at the map, this is probably the closest we’ll ever be to that cut 3rd culdesac. It’s a shame that we can’t see it though, I wanna know what it looked like SO BAD.
Great video as always! Can't believe it's been 10 years already seeing the trailer all over tv and getting hyped to finally be able to jump into Los Santos. Also, is it just my imagination or did you drive around with GTA IV's version of Rage driving physics in this video?
I still remember picking up my pre-ordered copy from GameStop the day of its release. They had yellow police tape over the door and windows as decoration, but for a second when I was walking up to it I thought something happened and the store was now a crime scene, lol

Bojack Horseman limits the swearing to one time per season, so when the characters do swear, it shocks you, it's very emotional of an impact.
@@MrWolfSnackother shows I think of is breaking bad, we barely hear the f word and when they say it it hits more
@@billross9132I think of rdr1 because there is like one time john says “fucking” and I was like “wow this is getting serious”
I feel they did that with deadwood, it makes it so hard to watch. Waay too much swearing especially for the time period.
It's funny how Rockstar limited how much actors can swear, yet newer GTA Online DLC still have characters swearing at lot, escially KDJ saying MF.
In my GTA Forums days, I remember when Michaels character was called Albert Da Silva (probably just a prototype name). I also remember when the first trailer dropped, everyone was convinced that the guy running from the cops was CJ.

I remember getting GTA V for Christmas of 2013, for the PlayStation 3. It took forever to install, but it was a blast - what an amazing experience. I was 17 back then, 27 now - but I wish I could go back and re-live that first experience playing through it. Oh how time flies...
Same, but my experience was a lot different because once I got it at midnight launch and a couple of hours into it I dropped it. The game was a absolute downgrade from the previous GTA games

Where did the time go
It's so sad that the story mode dlc's were cut. I would love to see a zombie dlc.
I watched an interview with Steven Ogg recently and he told that Rockstar was making some extra content for Trevor, but he didn't know what happened. Maybe he was talking about the DLC.
Trevor was one of the original GTAO heists
It's been speculated that all the Single Player DLC was repurposed into GTA Online; Trevor's segment is believed to be what we know as The Doomsday Heist and I'm willing to bet money that the Los Santos Drug Wars DLC was also meant for Trevor but Ogg recently voiced his disdain with the character and wanted to distance himself from it. Dax acts and talks alot like Trevor. They have similar mannerisms too.
Me too... but make it online too. Imagine the whole city without electricity, no lights working, everything being dark... you and your online friends having to use flashlights and night vision to reach a safe place. 95% of cars sitting dead roadside, if you find a car, you will to drive through waves of zombies and its with limited speed & fuel.
Hardest mission going from the docks in the south to a bunker far in the North, mostly on foot. You could plan your routes through certain streets, going through train tunnels, and so on. My 15yr old self would have loved it.
Rockstar has talked about how despite GTA4 and RDR1 being massive successives, their respective DLCs undersold signficantly. Like, at most, both Episodes from Liberty City and Undead Nightmare sold 2 million copies each.
Rockstar gave 2 main reasons as to why.
The first was the fact that these DLCs released almost ane ntire year after their base games. Most of the audience would have played the singleplayer and moved on and weren't interested in the DLC.
The second was that most people don't actually finish Rockstar games. GTA4, V, RDR, RDR2 all have between 20-30% completion ratings. People who haven't completed the game won't feel inclinded to spend more on the game.
In any case, it is almost certain that elements from GTAV's DLC were reworked into Online.
@@FraserSouris It's all of question about having a player base that is going to buy DLCs. Rockstar's player base is used to have the full game and that's it and Rockstar themselves never really attempted to change that, because it would take a lot of long-time support for the games, which isn't really their MO. So I guess it makes sense that they only went that route in Online because online players except long-time support otherwise it dies out.
Calming voice, calming music, actually good content. Badger is better than rockstar, confirmed.
What are you talking about 😂 better than Rockstar wtf, Badger makes videos, Rockstar makes the games that the videos are based on

I remember coming home from school and seeing my collector's edition of GTA V sitting on the couch. I opened it up and waited for it to install then played thru prologue and first mission. Then I let my brother play a bit since I had to go to guitar lessons. I thought about GTA V the entire time on the drive over there and at the actual lesson itself. Edit to fix some grammar I messed up.
How pissed was your teacher lol?
@@Kxvito He was actually pretty chill. I told him about the game and he seemed to understand why I was so excited.

It's weird, I remember more when the first trailer dropped than I do about the release. I even remember a commercial on TV for GTA IV more than the release for V.

I believe the swearing limit was a story/character reasoning behind it. When you see characters in media constantly just swearing it becomes all they’re really known to do which overshadows all the other things about them.
Rockstar obviously doesn’t want their characters to just be known as some swearing high score attempts (very thin line I must say). So they just limited it to only 5000 swear words per cutscene.
Yeah, that makes sense. The game is quite vulgar with it's language BUT, realistically so.
3:15 looking at the texture names.
i believe those were probably very early images they took for the GTAO character creator.
on PS3/360 you chose the grandparents of your mom and dad.
and then your mom and dad as well iirc.
which seems to line up.
like the mom and dad ones were for the grandparents at that stage and the boy and girl ones were your parents.
I totally forgot about that holy shit yeah.
One thing that annoys me so much is that in the early builds of V and the firsts trailers the vegetation is MUCH MORE DEEP, but they cut it since it was too much for the PS3/360 to handle, and they didn't add it back in the PS4/ONE/PC release neither in the Expanded and Enhanced
It's a gameplay reason
just play rdr2, it's basically Vegetation: the game, lol
The entire game was basically built from the old hardware of PS3 and Xbox 360, and the game only received more contents over the years without receiving any gameplay and mechanics improvement/overhaul onto PS4/Xbox One beyond. Basically the current version of GTA 5 that people play is just a port from the original PS3/Xbox 360 game.
@@channe3049 Which doesn't contain more vegetation, as it would cause significant gameplay obstruction and visual clutter
Fun fact that most people don't know, and I have evidence of this on my gaming channel - you can actually hide in the bushes from the cops and they can't find you.
I kind of wish we got something more from Rockstar for GTA V's 10th anniversary, but Badger Goodger is my gift, love your content Badger keep it up
The story being rewritten last minute sounds really strange, but also fitting. I wonder if Lamar's cut plot would've been set somewhere around the halfway point of the game, since between the (removed) Sharmoota job and Merryweather heist there's a bizarre chunk of the game where nothing of consequence happens for several hours.
I mean, I think the game is great the way it is, but overall it has a feel that something is missing, most likely due to logistical reasons ingolving the actors, as we've seen here and other reasons.
What cut plot, lmao
@@abemigos9281 Well, for starters, the entire Sharmoota Job string as well as F and T supposedly working with Michael on his Solomon Richards missions.
To be fair, it's rare to actually find a game that wasn't changed signficiantly partway through development. Almost every game changes either due to practicality or due to new information or logictical issues.
If anything, this is actually a good thing because it allows development to be flexible and adapt if something isn't working out or is causing issues.
A good case study is actually the Deus Ex series. Warren Spectre, director of Deus Ex 1, has talked about how they developed a "game bible" for Deus Ex 1 before development started. But by the end of development, only around half of that bible was used in the final product. The other half was either changed or removed and the game was better for it.
He gives the example of the game's opening level. Originally, the game was going to start very slow paced and have the player meet with every NPC in their organization before being sent out on their first mission. in order to properly set up the story, characters and setting. But Spectre noted how this made the experience drag. So he swapped it out with the second level and reworked it so the game started with a sandbox mission on Liberty Island and the whole "meet the squad" part can later and was shorter. The end result was that while the game may stumble to explain its story at first, its gameplay makes a strong first impression and is much more replayable.
In contrast, 2011's Deus Ex Human Revolution actually operated the oppoiste way. The game was planned to a tee beforehand and devs followed their "game bible" as closely as possible. But this ended up causing issues in the final version because even if something wasn't working out, it couldn't be changed. Human Revoution starts by causing the same issue that Deus Ex 1 noticed and avoided by starting with a long drawn out unskippable cutscene introducing the story, characters and plot and therefore drags on every repeat playthrough. Also the bosses.
@@FraserSouris Yeah, but with R* it's special because they're a very opaque dev team and company. The production of V is very mysterious and I'd love to find out more about the process and it's prototypes.
im gonna miss all those memories and moments i had while playing this game back in 2013.
I really hope GTA 6 is big enough to actually have a reason to use planes, private jets and stuff like that. Can you imagine in real life the trip takes 4 hours but in game it takes 4 minutes to travel. I’m just obsessed with commercial flying and really hope they actually create a map large enough to realistically fly across the map.
Just play flight simulator, silly :p
That's a good idea until you get a mission where you need to go to the other side of the map
It’s around 2 times as the size of gta v’s map.
@@crunkaintdead7702they'd probably reimplement trip skipping like in SA if it was big to the point of being unfun which it looks like it'll be

you know, it's kinda weird that there isn't any official behind the scenes or making of videos for this game aside from the fact that it's one of the most successful pieces of media in the world. that or we have to look up in various places for little fact, or watching videos dedicated to this topic.
although I know they don't really gonna do this(that and the fact that they always being lack in communication with fans in the past), but I hope they will make some behind the scenes or retrospective video, talking about their games, have the developers and the voice actors be in it. you know, like those behind the scenes of a movie.
I wished they did that, it's a shame how high is the lack of communication from Rockstar to the community.
@@Meriato yeah I always feels weird about thier lack of communication. even big studios like EA, Ubisoft, Sony, Nintendo have some communication to the fans.
@@Meriato No, R* are not about that crap. And I like it. Keeps the mystique.
Not keeping up with fans is ok. I’d rather there was no controversy with take two over mods tho.
I think there's a video with Steven Ogg explaining how they do motion capture.
I don’t know how crazy this will sound but apparently there was a live action ad filmed in Mexico and on a wall there was a five/V banknote logo on a banner.
I recently rediscovered it today but I can only find photos of the set, if anyone knows anything that came of it, itd be great find out because it’s technically lost media.

Hola soy de México y recuerdo la filtración de la filmación de ese comercial en 2012.
El comercial fue hecho en un estacionamiento de un edificio mediano en el centro de la Ciudad de México. En el estacionamiento había un logo como tú dices, un hombre tenía un traje como Michael y la calle de a lado estaba cerrada porque había autos que simulaban un accidente.
En los foros se especulaba mucho sobre quién lo hacía o si era un montaje de un fan. Al final de concluyó que era un comercial hecho por Sony ya que en esa época ya habían hecho un comercial live-action de los protagonistas de franquicias de Sony como el crossover de Uncharted / God of War / InFamous. Además desde 2010 Sony quería ganar audiencia en Latinoamérica haciendo comerciales ahí entre ellos un conocido anuncio hecho en México o Argentina donde personas arrojan aparatos en una catapulta para promocionar el Ps3.
La razón por la que no se supo más del anuncio no se sabe pero tengo la hipótesis de que Rockstar no iba a permitir una colaboración sin su permiso ya que nunca habían hecho esa clase de comerciales con sus franquicias (el cortometraje de GTA 2 no cuenta). Eso explicaría porque jamas hubo un comunicado oficial sobre la colaboración y porque tampoco continúo la filmación.
Curiosamente Rockstar dio permiso a Sony para hacer un paquete exclusivo de GTA V + Ps3 Super Slim en la salida del juego.
Espero te haya servido, es lo poco que recuerdo de la época.

I first played GTA V on my PS3 on launch day. It took me seven months to finish the campaign while starting out in the Online. I'm so happy for all the memories, laughs, friendships, late-night talks, heists, jobs, races, and fun I had with this game. Rockstar is not the company I once trusted, but it did give me a decade of memories with this game.

yeah it definitely feels like Blaine County was just meant to be the area around Paleto Bay. The Great Ocean Highway bridge over Raton Canyon has signs that say "Blaine County" implying that's where the county border was supposed to start. But now it is generally agreed upon that Blaine County reaches all the way down to Route 68, where it borders LS County.

There's no evidence that the alien dlc was ever being worked on but it was considered, the Zombie DLC was for all three characters while Agent DLC was exclusive for Trevor based on leftover files
The quantity of alien content both in the base game and online is strong evidence imo. It's too much to be a one-off joke, they had some kind of lore in mind, and an Alien-centric campaign explains it perfectly.
There are adults with careers who can say “I grew up playing GTA V” and that… hurts.
I still remember that I wanted a Playstation 3 for my birthday with GTA 5 because my birthday was the day after the release. Unfortunately, I was disappointed, but 2 years later I was able to play the PC version, even though my laptop was far too weak at the time. I was at least able to play it a little. How the time flies :D
I wish they kept the round minimap with the health, armor, and ability bats circling around them. The final UI is such a nightmare to read with the miniscule health and armor bars
Fact #3 is pretty interesting. It sounds very much like APB and I wonder if Rockstar backtracked that idea after seeing the reception of that game. For anyone interested, APB was a 100 mil money pit.
Hmm...
Fact 10 might be because of the international markets being favored in having little to no swearing in the dialogues. Translations might be tricky, and it can come off as vulgar, having no swear language can also facilitate to keep the focus on the nuances in the story.

@@iAmTaki First of all stop acting like a victim. Secondly I don't have a problem with your personal preferences towards a game, but when you act the fool and become defensive over a disagreement instead of arguing or clarifying your opinion on the matter at hand you instead shift the problem elsewhere.

I just wanted to find out why people like you regardless of sex or age, that when a game that has tarnished a legacy before it, can make you lost in emotion and nostalgia with out even asking yourself what made you "love" this game? I will give you an example, I LOVE Halo 2. Halo 2 is a masterpiece because the devs put their heart and soul into the game and even though it had lots of missing content the game still to this day holds up because unlike GTA v or any other modern game it was meant to entertain and give meaning to the game and gamers so when looked back at it it was not just nostalgia, but actual fond memories.
3:18 maybe it's an early version of the GTAO character creator where you choose the parents?

Sure, but watch them add horses to GTA 6 lol
I like these types of vids, shows you how much effort is spent developing these giant games. I imagine it’s hell lol
Big props for pronouncing "La Fuente Blanca" the right way
The swearing limit is due to the fact that in other countries a certain amount of swearing gets the game an AO rating - which is a death sentence for videogames. No retailer will stock it.
I remember the announcement for the first trailer in 2011, I was amazed when I see it. Now ten years have been passed since launch day, and no GTA VI. We know that the next game is in production, let's wait for the next announcement, I hope that it don't take soo long from now. Excellent video! Best Regards, from Brazil.

Woooow. So many details I didn’t know before, thank you!

I find it funny that nobody mentions that the foliage in the game had to be completely redone, back on the ps3/Xbox360 ports. Back then R* struggled to get the game running properly. A leak said it ran at 13 fps. therefore all of the foliage was removed. All the foliage was then placed, but reduced significantly. If you take a look at some of the screenshots from the portfolios, it shows the old much more dense foliage, even the original trailer does it. The end result ended up being more empty spots, dotted all around the map. The saddest part, that build carried over from xbox360/ps3 to the later ps4/xbox one (although i got upgraded significantly), and now series SX and PS5. We never witnessed gta folliage at its glory.
I remember when I was modding San Andreas PC I added more trees and shrubs to the abandoned airport to make it seem more abandoned and it looked so nice.
I remember how PS3 version had like 6 character slots with all of them except two being locked away... now if im not mistaken, with RDR2 we only have one character. Makes me wonder about GTA VI.
@@SuperGeronimo999 Lamar was one of the cut characters that we could play. But it got scraped due to him getting in some legal trouble.

I think GTA V still has beta assets in the game, with regards to the textures.
When you're looking at different things in-game, and change the LOD (level of detail) of things like signs, the textures become blurrier, but the texture itself changes.
Some change very little, while others change a lot. It's like they rendered the LOD of all the textures in the game at different times, instead of at the end with the final textures.
This is something I'd seen years ago and I have never seen anybody mention online since. In honestly, I don't know if it's a known thing or not.
It is a thing in every GTA game
Every videogame has this, it's how texture mapping works. Nothing to remark about.
I’m so glad they scrapped the idea of the CnC multiplayer for the Online we got. There’s no way this game survives as long as it has with that style of multiplayer.
I enjoyed it in the smaller GTA IV, but I do not think it would fit in GTA V the way it was in IV and it seems as though that’s what they were going for at first.
Whether you like or dislike the Online mode, it has allowed such an awesome game to thrive for a decade.
I just realized at 2:19 if you look at the map, this is probably the closest we’ll ever be to that cut 3rd culdesac. It’s a shame that we can’t see it though, I wanna know what it looked like SO BAD.
