International cybercrime, as portrayed by the movies and mass media, is a high-stakes game of shadowy government agencies and state-sponsored hacking groups. Hollywood casting will wheel out a char…
It did look very similar to GTA V, but it’s also worth noting that pretty much all of the footage was from very early production. It’s likely that they were using less detailed character/world models for testing purposes. I imagine the game will look pretty damn good and modern once the proper lighting and textures are applied.
Ultimately I don’t remember anything incredibly interesting from the videos I saw outside of a couple of story beats revolving around the new main characters. It seemed like most of the videos were pretty much testing certain console and systems at non-specified points in game.
Games can be pretty late in development and not look very good, when you see gameplay demos and whatnot in development games is almost always snowflake examples that they bring up to a “gold” standard just for the demo, which is often why they can drastically change prior to release (see halo 2). From the footage of this I’ve seen it was footage recorded from someone in some QA capacity role trying to show an issue to a developer, so it was absolutely one of the most in development looks you could possibly have, any visuals were essentially fluff at that level of development. They probably have a pretty good idea of what the finished product will look like, but there’s really no reason to put that into a version of the game that’s just testing AI.
IIRC it looked a lot like GTA V with some debugging info added. Most changes seem to be under-the-hood.
