[Megathread] Grand Theft Auto V

[Blueobelisk]

I finally cracked and bought GTA 5 for my Xbone. But I will be returning it because GTA online is EMPTY as hell. I could not get more than 5 people on a map.

I don't know if it's a bug or people just don't play GTA online anymore, but If I can't play with at least 20+ other people, I wont.

....Isn't the GTA5O server limit like 16 at a time lol?

Also, you can return opened video games?

Btw lol at the Order interview being completely opposite for GTA5.

The real interview: "lololol the order wasnt done but we're gonna push it with no gameplay and say its a cinematic experience and fanboys will defend it"
GTA edited version: "lololol we had this shit done forever but fuck pc gamers"

Lol.

4 months past the date, you mean. Won't be surprised at yet another delay, lol.

A month would've been fine to fix it up. Hell, it took like 2-3 patches and GTA IV was kinda fixed. And that's mostly hotfixed stuff.

I don't know how you guys, after all this shit, are still buying the "we are polishing" crap, but whatever.

How do you know a month was enough? Clearly it wasn't :P

What other reason do you think they would have for delaying it? Just to fuck with people?

I will buy the PC version for GTA online, because more people will actually be on.

I get servers with a lot of people all the time?

Maybe you aren't searching hard enough! >.>

Definitely, with MS's anti-cross-platform online-play policies, you wouldn't be seeing an increase in players anytime soon.

30 on PS4/XBO.

Poor Peasant. Try to sell this terrible piece of Shit 4-Year old hardware ASAP!

Due to deals with Sony and Microsoft to keep it a bit more console exclusive, pushing console sales. Maybe? Lol.
Makes much sense to me, but hey, you can always say I have a tinfoil hat on, that's how people get cool on the internet.

I doubt even Sony and MS have that level of influence.

The more reasonable explanation is that Rockstar allocated the bare minimum level of staff to it as it isn't expect to make much money anyway - nothing compared to the mother-lode they get from consoles.

I'm one of those that's all for actually finishing the game, but in this "pushed for April" case, pretty sure the game is finished. It's some investor/publisher thing. Money talks.

Highly Unlikely Sony and MS have gotten about as many sales as they probably can hope for for their consoles, 26mil and 18 mil respectively, heck so far this year more GTA 5 is the top selling PS4 game, and the #2 selling GTA 5 game, with 600k and 250k respectively.

It's ok to own a PC and a console, child.



I am impressed on how good GTA5 does look on my Xbone though.

Can't wait to see how it looks on PC maxed out.

There were some new PC screenshots earlier today, I would assume that those are maxed out. :3

You seriously think they are worried about console game sales this far down that they would delay it by a month randomly? Come on man :P

Why? What benefit would they have of delaying it? Why would their suddenly be a spike in console game sales for an older game at this point?

Sweet jesus

May end up being one of the best looking game of all time on PC.

Assuming The Witcher 3 doesn't best it, which it may.

Looks like PS4 pics touched up in photoshop to get rid of jaggies. Image quality looks amazing, detail and lighting looks identical.

Hopefully you actually can get the IQ that good on PC without tanking the fps.

[wombinator04]

There should be an Icenhancer mod for GTA 5 soon after release.

Now that will make it look insane.

Go look up videos/images of GTA4 with Icenhancer, It looks ridiculously good.

Iceenhancer is garbage, it's ENB that makes GTA4 look good and there won't be a ENB version for GTAV as the author doesn't do DirectX11.

Probably the usual. Better AA and AF at the expense of needing disproportionately more powerful hardware - PC are well known for the availability of high-end parts; not so much for efficiency.

Until GTA 6 .
