Revolutionary Weather System in GTA VI: the words of Vice President Rockstar

We know how much Rockstar Games is attentive to the graphic details of its titles, and it seems that with GTA VI they will aim to establish a new standard, especially in the weather system. As reported by the vice president of the lighting industry and rendering of the image, Own Shepherd, in a recent interview at GameInformer, the team has greatly improved this system, already impressive as the one used in Red Dead Redemption 2. The success of this implementation is evident in the fact that several players recorded Jason Duval and Lucia Caminos as they walked through rainy landscapes, uploading videos to YouTube as ASMR content. The words of Own Shepherd on the graphics of GTA VI: “We recreated our new weather system from scratch in such a way that everything can look right according to the play areas. In this way we built a dynamic world as it had never been created before. ” Shepherd also adds: "The game world includes a dynamic cloudy landscape that moves along the map. So you get a wide range of weather conditions: from the blue sky of a winter in Miami to the violent gray clouds that you often see in Autumn and Summer in Florida. " The implications of this system are significant, opening the way to unexpected scenarios. For example, during a strong storm, the player will have to decide how to get around it. Shepherd also confirms that there will be over 170 animal species including 60 different species of birds and more than 30 terrestrial mammals, a number that also includes marine species, returning to scuba diving. Just wait for the game to be released on November 19th. A former Rockstar Games developer also mentioned a possible GTA VI port on the Nintendo Switch 2 console. Le dichiarazioni di Own Shepherd riguardo al nuovo sistema meteorologico di GTA VI sono sicuramente un punto di forza, soprattutto considerando l’impatto già dimostrato da Red Dead Redemption 2. L'idea di un mondo dinamico e responsive alle condizioni climatiche, con la possibilità di attraversare da momenti di sole a tempeste improvvise, apre scenari narrativi interessanti e offre al giocatore una maggiore libertà di scelta nel modo in cui affrontare le sfide. La menzione delle oltre 170 specie animali, incluse quelle marine, rafforza ulteriormente l’impressione di un mondo vivo e dettagliato, coerente con la reputazione di Rockstar Games. Tuttavia, il fatto che Jason Duval e Lucia Caminos siano stati registrati mentre camminavano attraverso paesaggi piovosi su YouTube come contenuti ASMR, pur essendo un esempio concreto dell'implementazione del sistema, resta un dettaglio marginale nel contesto generale della presentazione. È lecito aspettarsi che la vera forza di questo sistema si riveli durante il gameplay effettivo e non solo nella registrazione di interazioni casuali di personaggi fittizi.
