Los Santos and Blaine County, the countryside surrounding it, are big, sure, but not that big. One of the most impressive things about GTA Online is how Rockstar has managed to squeeze six years of content out of one world. And we think we can improve on them even further." When it works it feels incredible and we’re really proud of what we created for the Heists content, and how we’ve managed to push those ideas forward between the original set and the structure of the Doomsday Heist.
"But at the same time you want the action to feel like it’s moving forward for everyone at roughly the same time. You’re trying to design inside an open world for players that may be very distant from each other. "Particularly at the highest level with something like the heists. "You are trying, wherever possible, to ensure that players can feel central to the action and essential to whatever is going on," he says. I ask Nelson how making content for a solo player compares to creating it for many. Parity between singleplayer and multiplayer has been a priority for Rockstar for years, and this is particularly evident in its most recent game, Red Dead Redemption 2, which blends the two even more seamlessly than GTA V. But in the anarchic GTA Online, Rockstar can do anything it likes, whether it makes sense or not. While exaggerated and larger than life in its own way, Grand Theft Auto V’s singleplayer is at least rooted in some kind of logic or realism. "It freed us up to create even crazier updates."Ĭunning Stunts, which added wild Hot Wheels-esque tracks to the game, with boosts, corkscrews, and jumps, is perhaps the best example of this. "As we became more confident that fans would understand how these updates would connect to the regular world of GTA Online," says Nelson. Some, like 2014’s I’m Not a Hipster add new clothes, cars and jobs others, such as 2015’s long-awaited Heists, change the game entirely.
There have been a not-insignificant 31 updates for GTA Online since 2013.
