Plus it WILL be hidden behind a huge pay wall as standard these days! The paywall is probably one thing it can’t hide behind. The main thing stopping a casino being implemented so far is the ability to buy funds to gamble with using real money. That’s a big problem in America due to their strict gambling laws especially online gambling. The only way they’ll get away with this is if they introduce a new currency for use in the casino that can’t be bought using external funds. I can’t see them allowing shark card money to be spent in the casino. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you said, perhaps you win casino 'chips' from doing various things? RDR has two different currencies. One earned through game play and another you can put real money into. This is the only way to get around it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M.C.Lethal Dose 139 Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 If and when this happens it will certainly get me back on GTAO again. I wait with anticipation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustHatched 12,103 Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 It doesn't make sense to me why R* would add this to GTA after putting it in RDR. It's almost like they are trying to push people away from RDR. I get that GTA is likely still a bigger money maker than RDR but if they have to put a new currency in that can't be bought with shark cards then there is little to be earned for them with a dlc of type. 1 Quote The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

Lann 10,838 Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 What if the gameplay that gets you currency for the Casino is eased by using expensive things that sharkcard can buy? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sinister 2,578 Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 We all know that R* knows exactly what they are doing when it comes to making money. If this gets implemented than I'm sure they have all the bases covered. 2 hours ago, Hatch said: It doesn't make sense to me why R* would add this to GTA after putting it in RDR.

They would add it for the millions of people like me that have zero interest in RDO and still enjoy playing GTAO. Odd as it sounds, they want BOTH games making them money. They just dropped the ball with RDO but will slowly straighten it out. They are just making it fit the forms that make them the most money which isn't good for folks that play in crews together. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If poker is available it will rule out the one reason I had to consider getting RDR for, somdoesnt make much sense from that point of view. However dropping it first in the game that needs a boost online probably did. Quote Can you smell what the Stone is cooking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LimeGreenLegend 4,173 Posted June 8, 2019 Share Posted June 8, 2019 (edited) I've read a lot here and on the DB site about how greedy and money hungry R* are. I would bet everything on most/all of that being on Take 2. It's almost always the publisher, not the developer.

T2 say ‘hey that’s great, now tweak it to be more profitable’. Its just a knee jerk reaction from me to blame R*. When looking at the bigger picture the publisher calls the shots economics wise. Both companies are here to make money though. Quote Can you smell what the Stone is cooking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought, since the huge profits of GTAV, that R* should go fully independent, but since they're a subsidiary company of T2, rather than owned by them, I don't know how hard/possible that would be. Also, T2 are the ones with the rights to GTA/RDR, so there's also that. Can you see R* putting all of their efforts in to a totally new IP?

I am not to familiar with the facts but was always under the impression they were stuck together. I would have thought there was no ‘escape’ and the only chance of something would be a new company altogether. A lot easier to suggest than to actually set up, especially considering the costs of a triple A release these days. Benzies is/was trying this, not sure what has happened with the ‘Everywhere’ project though. Quote Can you smell what the Stone is cooking?

Sinister 2,578 Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 I LOVE R*. They have provided me with many great games over the last 2 decades. End of the day they are a business with CEOs and Investors squeezing them for every cent they can get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubleg213 746 Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 (edited) I don't really see what there is to get excited in with the Casino thing. Pretend poker etc. doesn't really appeal to me, but hopefully it has some decent missions attached and/or has something deeper to it. On the downside it's another kick in the face to the "Rockstar never listen to the customer" brigade. "What have R* ever added for us?" "What about the low riders" "Well yeah, obviously the low riders, but other than that what have R* ever added for us?" "Didn't people ask for a biker update" etc. I swear if they send everybody who played the game a million in real world cash people would moan and say they've only sent the money out so that people will buy shark cards. They may add a load of stuff that I am not so into, really I just want more Creator updates and new cars (preferably without the weird bouncy handling lark they are messing about with), but they continually add stuff that people bleat on about wanting and then when they do you still have people moaning that they don't listen, despite the evidence staring them in the face.

JuniorChubb 3,359 Posted June 9, 2019 Author Share Posted June 9, 2019 Despite giving us great games they still make stupid decisions when it comes to bringing their games online. Still looking forward to the DLC, especially on how the currency gambling is handled if it cannot be purchased in any way. Quote Can you smell what the Stone is cooking?
