From what the dates say on the video, if they are correct dates, this is all content from 2019.  So a lot of the placeholders would now probably be gone and the content different from these videos.  But it looks like they have a lot of the world map completed.

The environments we've seen are incredible.  A whole new level of realism for sure.  It's amazing.

Some new video has been leaked and is in this compilation video.  I didn't think we'd see the day where the entire video game industry and a majority of fans are backing Rockstar and in solidarity, angry at this idiot hacker.

Reportedly this hacker had hacked Uber just days prior.

New rules. 

NO POSTING IMAGES OR VIDEOS from first or third parties relating to this leak.  You can talk about it, but share no imagery of it.

Sounds good. ^

Seems like the rumors are the hacker may have already been caught, maybe not.  Supposedly a teenager from the UK.

Rockstar has released an official statement.  There is spoilers in the video, but no footage or images of the leaks.   Rockstar's stock takes a tumble as they finally release an official statement, confirming the leak is real but refuting some of the claims made by the GTA 6 hacker about the incident...

I've heard rumors say he is Russian, Spanish... but the newspapers are saying he is from the UK and I will believe that over message board people.  We also learned a new tidbit.  The hacker is autistic.  To what level, we don't know.  But it is likely he is going to get screwed by the authorities.  He was arrested before by UK police and only given a one month ban from the internet, probably because he was autistic.  Well now it's clear he is quite dangerous and doing stupid stuff. Time for the full law book to hit him in the head.

My knowledge is pretty limited, anyone with a fundamental understanding of autism would regard the hacker as high-functioning. He clearly has hacking skills and knows how to do things. A lot of high-functioning autists struggle with logic or critical thinking, but have solid skills and abilities. Low-functioning would be pretty severe. His mannerisms and behavior may seem extreme to you, but autism is a spectrum and there are many ways in which one can struggle to function in society.
 
When people throw around the term autism on the internet, they think severe autism is someone who lacks social skills and obsesses over mundane things or have obscure or weird interests. That is not low-functioning autism, not by a country mile...

 But it is pretty clear the things the hacker has done after breaching Rockstar have not been smart or even worth it.  He isn't even asking for much money.  So there is a lack of understanding about how big of an issue this is.  I wonder if he can grasp in how much crap he is going to be in?  He has broken many laws, stole, bribing, ransom, etc.

Rockstar has officially responded.  It's fairly positive too and we may be getting official teasers soon.

The hacker isn't in jail yet by authorities.  He posted on his new Telegram account he plans to release more info tomorrow, September 20.

I hope he gets locked up before he has a chance to.  Arrest the guy. 

GTA Forums is now firmly against this guy for what he is doing.

Edit: The leaker claimed they were going to school, but that would place them in a timezone not in Europe or US.  Most think this is a ploy to lose his trail.  Everything is so fluid, so we don't know.  Many fakes out there.

I am glad Rockstar responded.  All I want to hear now is the hacker has been arrested and jailed.

It is nice to hear Rockstar confirm this won't delay things... but again... this is Rockstar.  They will delay things. ;D

The original hacker went to bed at 1:13 AM EST on Saturday night. And then they post in the Telegram at 9:26 PM EST that they just arrived at school? Either the Telegram guy is fake or this hacker has one messed up sleep schedule.  :nervoussmile:
