More distracting is the fact that grass, bushes, plants etc don't move when NPC walk like they do for your character. They just clip right through everything.

I think its more of a problem that rain does not splash on your windshield, or that you cant use windshield wipers in a storm, makes me so relaxed in games....but thats what pc mods are for

The game looks nothing like that on my PS4. It looks like they have their PS4 set to limited RGB.
This too. Like, you fiddle with 1st person to such extent to not have this in?

Lol did they add new ones to the remaster? I loved those things....in the mean time, the animation animation is pretty good.

Yes, the shit-posting in this thread is a prime example why this forums sucks sometimes. People are more busy to get in a witty remark/knee jerk reaction than to actually read and understand the thread.
But I will also never understand OPs that do not update and just run from the thread.
#YOULIED part TTWO! What a disgusting company. The audacity.
These anti-consumer trends need to stop.
So you're saying misleading advertisement from companies is alright as long as the games are good?
Any official comment yet? If it's a bug i hope they'll fix it soon, then.IT´S A BUG.

There's not a whole lot of new content in the game, so for the most part this is a visual upgrade..to not have the visuals match what was presented a week before launch is a problem...thankfully its just this and aside from the tree animations it looks great and what was expected.
still..
Rockstar needs to address this somehow.
This is funny because swaying trees or no, this is a MASSIVE difference, easily the biggest upgrade we've seen in a remaster this gen. It features the usuals you'd expect in 1080p, better framerate (which is categorically improved over the last gen versions in every way even if it isn't always perfect 30), higher res textures, etc, but goes so far beyond that. You have much higher poly models in everything from cars and characters to random unimportant tree stumps in the middle of the desert. You have much higher detailed tree/foliage models. You have not only higher res textures, but extensive use of POM (parallax occlusion mapping) on those textures to give depth to everything from cut grass, damaged vehicles, snow/sand and almost every ground surface, to assets you wouldn't even see often like tiles on a roof. Perhaps the most extensive use of the effect we've seen in a game on these systems yet. Also increased shadow resolution, more light sources rendering much further into the distance, volumetric lighting causing light shafts when sunlight cuts into shadowed areas, better atmospheric lighting. Then of course the first person perspective with hundreds of new/unique animations and hand/gun models, and things like every car having a highly detailed "cockpit" view.
It's a massive upgrade.

done-and I sent 2 emails-haha but I doubt it will be noticed-
I'm guessing this is a glitch. I remember in Wave Race: Blue Storm that on Sunny Island when it was sunny, the reflections were inexplicably turned off.

But if you played with party cloudy weather, which wasn't much different than sunny, the reflections worked.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i0Tn0XhTxFE
So these things happen.
Edit: actually I don't see reflections on cloudy either. They definitely show up on stormy tho: http://youtu.be/Iueek0npTN8?t=6m16s No other level had this problem.

The amount of detail and the level of the upgrade is mindblowing.
I know no other way to put it. One of my best friends, who had the 360 version and poured 80+ hours into it, went out THE NEXT DAY, after playing it at my house, and bought an X1 just for the upgrade.
If I am not mistaken, they are looking into it.

I should't know about thisgrr
Didn't realize it until know that the last gen version had moving trees... hm..
Well, the funny thing is that now Rockstar doesn't seem to be acknowledging the issue. I guess we will have to wait.

I played San Andreas last night and thanks to this thread, one of the first things I noticed was the moving trees.
Right in dem feels. Now I want to play Wave Race again.
I hope we see some updates. Would be nice.

Yes, even the PS2 games have it. I'll be very disappointed if they don't fix this. How the hell did this slip past QA?

Weird how they're basically saying "it's not a bug " there since they're saying that it doesn't apply to that forum.

maybe it was a last minute cut for stability...
frame rate is pretty good in Chiliad compared to Vinewood though, i'm sure it could handle tree animation

I know I will keep annoying Rockstar with it.
You are doing gods of sway work, schennmu.
Please keep it up.
Since this was in their trailer earlier, I think this is a bug. Hopefully they will push the patch out soon and maybe even adding hood cam to it.

Any word from R* yet????
We don't know it's a bug. We know it's in their advertisements and not in the actual game. That could mean it's a bug. It could also mean they removed it from the game purposefully and are just running ads with it still in because it looks better (like all the 360/PS3 ads with a rock solid framerate).
Originally a R* rep replied saying they knew about it and were looking into it.
Yeah!!?? Verbal overreaction aside, I do hope they will at least admit to it soon - or even better, mention that they're working on a patch to fix it.
I know some (even many) might find this ridiculous, but the lack of tree animation actually has put me off from buying a GTAV + PS4 bundle for now. I hate it when graphical (or any type of) features are removed from games, especially those that help create immersion and those that make the game world feel alive. To me those features are vital when looking at any game from a world building and artistic perspective, which I tend to do all the time. I really hope Rockstar will acknowledge and fix this problem - they are the masters of detail and world building after all, so it would make no sense to essentially remove wind and live foliage from their game.
Edit:
I see, so they have at least acknowledged it. Good. Any source on this original Rockstar reply?

If it's advertised as in the game, it's not an overreaction for me to demand satisfaction. Give me my fucking swaying trees. Patch that shit.
Yeah I actually fully agree. I wasn't criticizing you actually, just hinting at your/my use of all those question/exclamation marks. Games should have what was being advertised, or keep what they had in older versions (save for rare exceptions involving game breaking things). I want my moving trees (back) too!!!!

Oh ok good. Bright side is that they delivered on the huge amounts of foliage.
I fucking love foliage in games.

I'm a little confused as one of the first cut scenes with Micheal and Franklin at his pool had a wind effect
There clothes and Micheals hair was blowing in the wind

Yep. I didn't know what it was at first but I immediately thought I wasn't as impressed with the sea as I was with x360 version. There is foam, just not as convincing.
As for the trees, I'm guessing they hadn't finished working on swaying animations for all kinds of trees in the game and it will be patched in soon.
