Will he get away with it?
>>746070182https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half-Life_2#LeakAxel Gembe did not get away with it
No.
>>746070650> In March 2004, Gembe contacted Newell, saying he was a fan and had not acted maliciously. Newell worked with the FBI to invite Gembe to a fake job interview, planning to have him arrested in the United States.Thats fucking funny.
>>746070182I'm about to go to sleep, dreaming of comfy leeks in the morning, and the neurotic meltdowns currently occurring at rockstar hq.
Reminder that when you argue with a Cyberleeks fan this is who you’re talking to
Its Rockstar themselves
Its a marketing stunt, the shitflix shit will likely have something to do with it.Cyberleek might be a character or something in the game itself too.
>>746071353>We have the most overhyped game ever with literal retards frothing at the mouth to release anything>Surely the best means of doing this will be through unofficial channels that'll only be spread by word of mouth to a fraction of the audience it would reach had we just openly done this>We'll also play the part of being unwillingly compromised and make ourselves not only look like incompetent fools but now also heavyhanded brutes when we threaten seemingly innocent gamers for a joke and attempt invade the privacy of thousands in an effort to mock-crackdown on this leak>And we'll do this for reasons that surely won't sound like schizophrenic goobledygook the second a literal retard spouts them out12D chess by the boys at stonesol
>>746070182hopefully not
>>746070182It's starting to smell kayfabe with all the snippets that would be in a trailer.
>>746071268Yup, but he got arrested in his home country like the day before his flight to the US, which likely saved his ass from a much harder crackdown
>>746071353>>746071690The main giveaway that it isn't direct Rockstar involvement is the crypto front. There are other tells, like him lambasting Rockstar for shitty consumer practices, but the crypto heist is the obvious one. I don't care if it's "donation only"
>>746071324what if that ends up being the actual cyberleek?
>>746070182hopefully yes
>working with feds to imprison his fansthis is the future of Steam
>>746071268why is gabe so jewish?
>>746075930
>>746071353I doubt Rockstar would be subpoena-ing everyone if it was an inside job.
It's literally marketing and you retards are falling for it. Trust me, I wish it were real
if it wasn't for the subpoenas (are they even real?) and shitcoin scam I would say the whole thing is a guerilla marketing campaign.I still wouldn't rule it out though
>>746076196the state department's actually in on it as well. You don't seem to understand just how far this goes
>>746076872Explain how Rockstar would get away with the legal actions. Would the government let a video game company play around with the law and violating people's privacy?
>>746070182>will taketwo get away with it?hook, line, and sinker
>>746076872You know damn well this isn't how Rockstar operates they would never do this in a million years.
>>746076872>>746077175>>746072481>>746071353So they're actively talking shit about themselves for being DRM only and sunsetting physical copies? Because that's what you're implying. That Rockstar is making fun of themselves
>>74607171790% of the people buying the game don't give a shit about any of this and very likely don't even know what's "happening". None of this was ever going to affect their decision.The only ones left are people like us who are plugged into shit. At the end of the day, instead of seeing a trailer or two across a six month span, "NEW LEAK" is being shoved in our faces every other fucking day. We're not being allowed to ignore it. I haven't watched any of them but it's still kept near the front of my mind because it's being spammed across every fucking website. The game is literally too big to fail so why wouldn't they dick around a bit and see what happens? This is numarketing, just like ugly sonic.
>>746071353Sure, Take2 and Rockstar are getting random people's personal data from Discord servers just for a marketing stunt then.https://x.com/CryptoCyberia/status/2091900919751340165
Don't really care enough about GTA to buy the games, but I'm really enjoying the leaks. Partly to see TECHNOLOGY but also because this is the first time in a long time where the leaker isn't some incompetent scriptkiddie Discord retard. He's a little bit of a faggot dripfeeding this shit, but hey this is t he hypest game of all time so he's allowed to have some fun I guess.
>>746077884https://x.com/Pagan_GMR/status/2091193953282293919Oops, wrong link.
/r/ cyberleek's site link please Yes I'm a newfag
>>746078069Someone posted it in the other thread
>>746078125Found ithttps://cyber-leek.com/home
>>746077810>Ugly SonicUgly Sonic was 100% real, they had shit made and even the movie kinda alludes to his old design in a bomb scene. Companies can just be retards anon. And doing all this for less than 10% of the market just for funsies?
>>746078815>>746077810Ugly Sonic was corpo going full retard, but then making the super rare realization of 'Oh shit, this is going to bomb if we don't course correct ASAP' I'll always like how they not only got the con scene down in the Chip n Dales movie, but Ugly Sonic is the hero who comes to save the day at the end because he's working with the FBI
>>746077738Nobody is going to win against DRM and digital only. It doesn't matter how much "shit" they talk. It may as well just be part of the ruse for all the difference it will make.
>>746071717>stonesol
>>746070182Actual fucking game leak when?
>>746081579It's out already retard
>>746081604I don't believe you but I want to. I don't even wanna play GTA6. It's my hope this game crashes and burns so $100 games doesn't become the norm.
>>746070182Like thishttps://x.com/AureaLibe/status/2091196949932261777
If doubles, he will
>>746070650>Leaks code>"Bro I was just being funny, btw can I have a job? Here's my full address"Is he fucking retarded?
>>746081901Yes. Yes he was. The person or group in the OP will also monumentally fuck up because these people can't just quietly walk away and fade into obscurity, otherwise they wouldn't have done what they did in the first place
>>746070182yep he is russian they can't do shit to him
>>746071690if it was marketing they would've stopped after a couple of leaks, I don't know how you all are this retarded
>>746077164>Explain how Rockstar would get away with the legal actions.Easy, pay the fines that they will be slapped with, which will probably be cheaper than conventional advertising costs
>>746075930>wanting the bloke who stole your work to get rekt is being jewish
>>746070182The guy will do something ultra mega fucking retarded at some pointThe most retarded leakers are the ones that try to make a show of what they're doing, after all
>>746070650I don't think Mr. Leek is going to ask Rockstar for a job any time soon which will significantly increase his chances of not getting caught.
>>746081975The guy is an attention whore and you can see his delusions of grandeur are becoming more pronounced when he started asking people to go protest in front of a gay Rockstar building for him(which would accomplish nothing)If this guy doesn't leak the full build soon then he is and always was another loud mouth lying pussy.
>>746082085The people who planned it would get prison time.
>>746070182Yes undoubtably, his Opsec is terrible. all it will take is one of his partners cashing out early and they catch him and root out everyone else.
>>746082190>If this guy doesn't leak the full build soon then he is and always was another loud mouth lying pussy.This.His snippet posting is gayer than a Rockstar trailer.
>>746075930>Steal from a small game company is okayWhy are you so brown?
His relevance to the world ends the day the game releases but not to Rockstar, they'll keep hunting him forever until they get him.
I wait for the guy to get arrested and see him do suspicious illuminati hand signs.
>>746082097>playing jewish tricks instead of catching him fair and squareshalom
>>746082190100% this, because like that one ex-dev said, rockstar ultimately doesn't care if a small group of terminally online users get leaks/spoilers, because 90% of the playerbase for GTA6 is normies who watch football on sunday and watch tiktokThey're gonna exercise their legal muscle, but at the end of the day, R* is gonna make tons of money, and virtually nobody is gonna cancel preorders due to this (if anything, cyberleek shit is gonna encourage people to keep their preorders for november)that is, unless he actually releases a PC build. If he actually does that, you could actually see a disaster the size of Cyberpunk's launch. PC players getting a mostly-full build, WITH code and debug symbols, AND for free? Even the normies wouldn't be able to ignore when all their youtubers and tiktok influencers are playing it. You'll for sure see a 6000% uptick in people googling "how to open torrent"But nah, leek dude is just looking to make some money, and he's gonna scalp the desperate GTA fans who "wanna stick it to rockstar", only to pay some random jeet hundreds of dollars, while normies at large don't give a fuck
>>746082329>foreverStatute of limitations doesn't apply here?
>>746075526Rockstar is obsessed with trying to monetize the hype though, also Cyberleek is for some reason doing their best to not be a scam (burning dev coins), even though getting short-span attention like this is THE best excuse for them to use it for a pump and dump.Leaker criticizing Rockstar is still in-character, and it seems like it's just their way of painting leaker as a gamer nerd jackasses who larps as Robin Hood but in reality they are a crypto faggot.imo the only tell that is not a marketing stunt is their subpoenas, and despite my claim I don't think they are willing to be known for stalking everyone that's in GTA related discors servers, just to make their marketing stunt seem real.
ways it could've been a real leaker>spoiling the story, especially when the devs are seething on musk by getting him killed in a humiliating way compared to notzucc>riding on a tank and blasting a gay pride parade event
>>746081797chatgpt, shorten this chatgpt slop for me
>>746070650he received 2 years probation. that is mild.
>>746070182He's Russian, he will. Take Two literally blocked everyone from Russia from playing their games and Putin has stated that shitty companies like that are exempt to every single copyright laws and can have their content infringed with full impunity.
>>746082447the last of us 2 leaker got got and he dumped the story and everything and tried to go underground, but they still got him.
>>746082447why is musk in the game? florida has nothing to do with him
>>746076872>dude trust me
>>746082625didn't watchdogs 2 have Martin Shrkelli in it for no reason just to have a mission where you kill him.
>>746082581Hopefully he dies in Ukraine. That would make me laugh out loud.
>>746082736>not wanting a video games crashRetard,
>>746071717>stonesol Fucking gross cunt. Don't do that again
>>746082190This shit never happens because leaking the build would mean the end of his short-lived fame, even if he kept it past the game release he could still be the guy that owns alpha build of the game, if he wasn't this much of a desperate attention whore, he would've leaked that shit on day one.In very very low chance he might leak it as the final crescendo but Im pretty sure he is going to get caught for some dumb reason like getting catfished by Rockstar pretending to be his female "fan" before all of that happens.The best we could hope for is his friend who also has access to the build leaking everything on a whim, just like how hl2 build got leaked.
>>746077810Of course you think ugly sonic was a fucking psyop. Jesus Christ you idiots are thick
>>746082691i don't know, never played it. it makes a little more sense since you play as a political activist in those games. musk being in a florida crime simulator doesn't really make sense to me
>>746082753Ooh a video games crash. Its gonna happen dude!It'll be awesome if he explodes from a drone or some hohol runs him over with a Bradley on camera. Squish! His head would pop like that zipperhead my granda told me about that he ran over. Itd be so sick to see that irl
>>746082828>musk being in a florida crime simulator doesn't really make sense to methats the point, there is a non zero to decent chance the shot at elon would be made out of spite, considering the vapid and mutual spite the fuck has with GTA in the first place (waa I gotta kill a cooooop?)
>>746071353That is stupid and you are not intelligent
>>746082625He whined about some gay shit and now they're making fun of him, easy as that
>>746082986Its fine to shoot and kill people not dressed like cops, but a cop? It just makes me feel, like, icky, and all gross and stuff. Its not right.
>>746075930The Vivendi arc broke his innocence forever and he became a ruthless businessman from that point.
>>746082394>the criminals don't have to play by the rules but you... you just do, okay???shalom
>>746082893if they make you kill a real person in gta 6, i think it wouldn't be a tech CEO since it doesn't take place in silicon valley
>>746083101There's going to be a mission where you shoot a podcaster debating college kids or something else woke
>>746082403>all their youtubers and tiktok influencersNo one with a modicum of sense would risk their livelihood playing that, they'd be raped to death immediately
>>746070182Considering he's sociliting real money to release the leaks he's going to jail. May as well go out with a bang and leak the ending.
>>746083101You think? I don't think you think.Which tech company HQ building in silicon valley is Musk sailing on with his vacation yacht?
He won
Didn't they already have Elon Musk aka Avon Hertz in GTAO?
>>746070182at least until the game has been released.after that they can do whatever they want to him because the threat of him leaking the build has become irrelevant
>>746070182I thought about buying this game despite the disc shit because I really liked RDR2 that much but now that Rockstar is subpoenaing 200k people in a discord server and sending out the fucking pinkertons to peoples houses for guessing leak dates, I really just don't want that stinking up my library.
>>746083186parodying andrew tate would be far more likely, especially for miami
I´m conviced so far that he´s in cahoots with R* or straight up working for them. No build leaked, no harm done. All what he´s doing is free publicity for the game. Normies gobble it up and get hyped. For me, he´s looking like a undercover shill.
>>746083583Rockstar subpoenaing thousands of Discord accounts for "free marketing" Seems like a bit of a stretch. They're not worried about the general populace, they're worried about investor confidence. and having your multi million dollar investment fucked with in any way is gonna get Mr.Moneybags to leave regardless of sales numbers.
>>746083583No, it's just him being a faggoty cryptobro and trying to milk his coin as much as possible. There's also the Netflix thing on Thursday where he'll probably do some cheeky shit.>b-but he burnt his own stash!!!Means nothing.
>>746083678>having your multi million dollar investment fuckedsure, if it happens. >>746083787>b-but he burnt his own stash!!!>Means nothing.exactly, so far he´s serving nothingburgers.
>>746083583Rockstar are a publically traded company, they have a legal responsibility to maximize shareholder value. Given the leaks tanked the company's value by 2 billion that would be serious criminal investigations right there. I don't see why an executive would risk 15 years for a dumb marketing stunt.
conspiracy tards who think this is a marketing stunt are the same low iq "people" that think charlie kirk staged his death
>>746070182He already did>>746070650He literally did
>>746083927They're a bunch of retards over complicating everything in an effort to, ironically, make things simpler than they actually are. This is how most conspiracy theories work, they don't believe in the Flat Earth, they're trying to build it.
>>746083678>Rockstar subpoenaing thousands of Discord accounts for "free marketing" Seems like a bit of a stretch. yeah, because they didn't actually do thathttps://x.com/RKRigney/status/2091951509931954436it's marketing
>>746084052motherfuckerhttps://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/28570980/take-two-discord-subpoena.pdfDiscord hasn't responded because this shit takes about a dozen lawyers to do right
>>746071353>let me,a colossus billionaire company include a rag pull crypto scum >and everyone was on board with jay briliant ideariiiiiiiiiiight
>>746071324There's no soul behind those eyes
>>746084052deliberately tanking your stock value is a serious crime regardless of intent.
The assumption that leaker is Rockstar themselves is hilarious. Those who were going to buy it will still buy it no matter what and those who don't, won't change their mind either. it would mean that they literally just burned 2 billion for absolutely fucking nothing.
>>746070182Hopefully, I am tired of the epstein class. All of them must be obliterated.
>>746084149>Discord hasn't respondedexcept they did, by saying they didn't get onefamously, like you've seen it before several times on several websites on the internet, when you get a subpoena, you are free to and typically do disclose that you have been servedbut they said explicitly the opposite>>746084250then publishers aren't allowed to make bad gamesalas,
>>746070182I think he'll inevitably be caught and his life will probably be ruined, though I hope I'm wrong. I wonder if this will do anything to move the needle in the gaming industry as a whole?Like reveal information sooner to prevent leaks from spoiling the surprise, be more friendly towards physical, so on.
>>746084336of course not, goy. it will only tighten security
Why is rockstar kvetching so hard over this? There are billions of normgroids lined up to buy this game, even if it's revealed to be nothing but a V reskin. How likely is it that he has the ending cutscene somewhere?
>>746084306Nigger do you understand what you're arguing? There's no marketing here because this wasn't Rockstar's doing, nobody in the company is wanting to go jail over some gay LARP. Especially considering actual MILLIONS have already been laundered through a shitcoin. You're defrauding both investors and the public at that point.
>>746084439oh a beef melty
>>746075526The main giveaway was when they issued subpoenas. Unless you are so braindead you think Rockstar has the courts under their thumb too.
>>746084556They have to sell the bit, people would see right through it otherwise
>>746084556no anon you see its fake and made up, because the boomer farts with 10 million each invested into this trainwreck just fucking hate the stability that a ROCKSTAR game promised
>>746084613They have to sell the bit by committing serious financial crimes?
>>746081875Take my power
>>746084613>Risk getting sued by Netflix>Risk heavy fines and even prison time for perjury and wasting court resource>Risk getting sued by everyone they falsely subpoenadYeah, totally worth it for this little stunt.
>>746084651what financial crimei see people keep bleating shareholder value shareholder value shareholder valuemonth over month there isn't a drop, nothing happenedand if something did happen, shareholders losing confidence would only be their own fault, there was that beer company that nearly went under for their shitty ad, but... hmm, they're not in legal troublequeer
>>746084731Budlight didn't lose anything because it was a Nike Boycott situation where the "Boycotters" never moved to a different product and just kept drinking Bud Light because they're subhuman piss drinkers
>>746070182I hope so but there really is no way, at this point he has to be made an example of by any means necessary.
>>746084731Deliberately sabotating the value of your own stock is a breach fiduciary duty and because Rockstar wants to make money on the game, meaning their stock value goes back up which would mean they committed blatant market manipulation. That's a crime and the feds will tear your asshole open for it.
>>746084669where bulge
>>746078463holy self-sucking
>>746082473nos chômeurs ont du talent
>>746084842>Deliberately sabotating the valueyeah cool!nothing to do with them running this ad campaign!and again, look at the value now and a month agonot very different, you fucking slave of a sow
>>746082869>mad
>>746084935>nothing to do with them running this ad campaign!ad campaigns don't have crypto heists, anon. that's where the legal fidelity arises
>>746084935If Rockstar were behind this then they deliberately leaked their own game under false pretenses, damaging shareholder confidence all the while sociliting crypto funds from unsuspecting members of the public in order to leak some faggy ass 2 minute clips of nothing in order to drum up hype. Dumb fucking nigger. Nobody at the marketing department is like "Yeah! I know a super cool way to market GTA VI, we'll do it by committing as many felonies as possible!" And somehow you find this absurd crime spree by the largest gaming company in the world more believable than some faggot who probably had connections to company who's deliberately leaking shit for his own self gain?
>>746084842> which would mean they committed blatant market manipulation. That's a crime and the feds will tear your asshole open for it.We already had much more severe crimes being put back under the rug. If your company makes money for the state, your crimes are not relevant.
>>746085049not the subject we're on, if you want to talk about that let's conclude the other thingit's an ad campaign, you may not agree with that but as long as you're arguing in a fictitious realm about how they're not allowed to do one, you're agreeing that it is oneand that's fine i'm not dunking on you that you think it's an ad campaign, for all intents and purposes, our discussion, we are going with it's an ad campaignwow! it's shit! i mean the product is shit too, but it turns out the campaign is shitty!companies do that, and it's not illegal, they thought it would workdid it land? people are talking about it!the value of shares? not different than last month!issue? none.
>>746085170>strawman, bad faithnot even gonna read all of that, just gonna hope you're merely pretending
you are arguing with a troll
>>746085092What do you mean they make money for the state? You mean they pay taxes because yeah no fucking shit they do. There's no secret backchannel where Rockstar executives are putting money into superpacs or whatever just so the governmment can turn a blind eye to them committing fraud for a marketing campaign.
>>746070182He's just marketing scheme unless game gets uploaded, few clips of boring gameplay is not some grand statement
>>746085201ok
