It will be interesting to see where Rockstar goes from here, especially with the current hardware abilities.

Fans pitch their own ideas

One Redditor suggested a unique take on the character-changing mechanic. Since the protagonists for GTA 6 will be a duo, it allows for more intertwined scenarios. Because of this, it allows for scenarios when character switching is a varied take, such as in a scenario when the two are heisting.

At the same time, fans also want to see in-game physics taken to a whole new level. It is no secret physics in the GTA universe functions slightly differently. From flying bikes to taking no damage on sky-diving without a parachute, seeing Rockstar Games take physics up to a new level would be a great addition. Moreover, with the tools they have at their disposal, it becomes a more practical thing to add.

Some fans think with the kind of hardware consoles and gaming PCs used today, the game might scale the world to a whole new level. Through the usage of an SSD, GTA 6 can facilitate much faster movement and world size to a scale that makes GTA 5 look small. Remember, when GTA 5 first came out, Rockstar managed to create a map that large on the PS3 and Xbox 360.

They also hoped to see a change in the way missions played out. Instead of a linear approach, players hope to see more freedom given to the players about how they carry out the mission. Rockstar can innovate with this, making the reward depend on how you complete the mission.
