In contrast to previous <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>s, developers are also being cautious not to \u201cpunch down\u201d by making jokes about marginalized groups.<\/p>\n<p>Original plans for <em>Grand Theft Auto VI<\/em>, code-named \u201cProject Americas,\u201d were for it to be more vast than any <em>Grand Theft Auto<\/em> game to date, with early designs calling for the inclusion of territories modeled after large swaths of North and South America, the people said. But in its current state, the main map has been cut down to a fictional version of Miami and its surrounding areas.<\/p>\n<p><!-- AD: content --><br \/>\n        Rockstar Games\u2018s plan now is reportedly to update <em>Grand Theft Auto VI<\/em> over time, adding new missions and cities on a regular basis, and hopefully leading to less crunch during the game\u2019s final months of development. Despite this, the game\u2019s world is said to remain large, with more interior locations than any previous <em>Grand Theft Auto<\/em> game.<\/p>\n<p>All of this comes as part of a report about Rockstar Games\u2019 attempts to reinvent itself as a more progressive and compassionate workplace, with Bloomberg citing interviews with more than 20 people who work there currently or left recently.<\/p>\n<p>Some of those changes include restructuring the design department to keep overtime under control, changes to scheduling, converting contractors to full-time employees, the ousting of several managers employees saw as abusive or difficult to work with, new mental health and leave benefits, a \u201cflexitime\u201d Policy that allows staff to im<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a>tely take time off for every extra hour worked, and a promise that excessive overtime will not be required for <em>Grand Theft Auto VI<\/em>, unlike the company\u2019s major releases in the past.<\/p>\n<p>More producers have also been added to keep track of schedules. And while that has been a mostly positive move, it has also caused bottlenecks as some employees said they found themselves waiting to communicate through middlemen or felt like multiple people were in charge.<\/p>\n<p>None of the Rockstar Games employees interviewed by Bloomberg knew of a firm release date for <em>Grand Theft Auto VI<\/em>, but said that they expect the game is at least two years away from release.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
