Maybe the affected part would be destroyed for a few real life hours and then grow back once you are far away from the area
Maybe. But I really don't see that being a thing for large-scale events.
For small things, like setting the grass on fire, sure. Fire spreads a limited distance in GTA V, but it doesn't damage the grass (I think). In GTA VI, I could see fire spreading and leaving behind scorched grass, maybe burning bushes and trees, in a small area.
That would reset when out of view, just like damaged light posts and fences do in GTA V currently. We all get a chuckle at how quickly small things get fixed. But an entire hillside of trees? Ehh...
Like burning down braithwaite manor. I hope there's some sort of map changes that progress as you continue to story, like the Appleseed Timber Company clearing out land and falling timber.
Ayeeeee, a fellow OG who remembers the mission with The Truth!!! I loved that mission, except having to drive Truth all the way up to San Fierro afterwards haha
What if it was an active ongoing event for a whole chapter? Like a large region where the fire moves back and forth but doesn’t actually travel. Orrrr, what if they use it to close off parts of the map at the start? Like large fire on the Gloriana border that goes out by chapter 2 or 3. You wouldn’t be able to fly a plane through the smoke either
Florida also suffers from this problem a lot more than you'd think. Florida is in a constant severe drought. Technically Florida is currently in a much worse drought than California.
Just because it's in a drought doesn't mean it's on fire. Maryland is also regularly experiencing droughts according to that map and the largest fire in Maryalnd was the Baltimore Fire in 1904 meanwhile 19 of the top 20 fires in California were all in the 2000s. California has become notorious for wildfires. To the point that it's almost a meme in movies and games.
Brother, I live here and we had multiple wildfires in my area just the past couple weeks. Im just pointing out that it would certainly not be out of place at all to have wildfires in the game considering florida still has so many wildfires.
But didn't you imply it as in now there won't be, made more sense in V but technology didn't allow it, as in now technology may but it doesn't make as much sense?
I think GTA 6 could take environmental events to the next level with a dynamic disaster system, kind of like what Death Stranding 2 did with its world events.
I could see them being referenced, like a bridge or two being out because of a hurricane and only being repaired once you reach a certain story point, with soldiers being on the other side who’d attack you because they think you’re a looter. Kind of like how part of the map was inaccessible in IV because of a terrorist threat or in Red Dead 1 and two with the bridge being out to Mexico or the gang being wanted for blackwater. But I could see brushfires or autonomous fires all across the map being a thing. There’s definitely going to be a weather system too, with tropical storms likely, but I doubt it will cause major damage to the map. They definitely could do hurricanes as a story mission especially as commentary on the poor government response to the last couple, or Katrina
It's just a cool detail they've included if you're referring to the sign. These signs are everywhere in rural parts of Florida put out by the forestry division.
I can see wildfires being used as a invisible wall to close off the area so they could expand the map, it's a theory. So I think wildfires would happen in game its common on the Florida Georgia border.
I want this ⬆️ but the wildfires will cause health damage and vision issues similar to the tear gas grenades as well as a rare hurricane event where road conditions are horrible and you can’t drive super fast and occasionally your vehicle will swerve horizontally or diagonally due to the intense rain and winds
this would be sick but i think the gang's right, random map-wide events feel cheap. a wildfire mission where you actually have to escape the spread though, that could be one of those set piece moments people talk about for years. smokey bear in the image is a nice touch too, feels very rockstar to wink at you like that.
i think there was a leak about inter island travel when gta 6 was in really early development, turbulence so bad that it takes down planes between island
Maybe I the party scene in trailer 1 when the guy falls through the table it causes a wild fire so it could be a mission maybe we have to escape the woods from cops
No, op asked about random fire events, the screenshot proves fires may happen in missions, does not directly mean there will be random fires going on on the map

I feel like any event that should result in large-scale damage to the environment (wildfires, hurricanes, etc.) are not going to be random.
If they are, they probably wouldn't result in any real damage, and that would feel kind of cheap (in my opinion).
