[Corpekata]

Given the Steam store debuted a day after the press release I'd wager it's just a little more detailed and those will be present on all platforms. I mean arguably some of that list could possibly be too demanding for consoles but it'd be weird to include something like new wildlife in there.

It seems that "upgraded AI, new wildlife, and advanced weather and damage effects" are only for PC? or did they leave it out of the press release by accident

Nope:

Switch between the interconnected lives of Michael, Trevor and Franklin as they embark on a series of heists across Los Santos and Blaine County in the biggest, deepest and richest open world experience yet, with game world enhancements that include new wildlife, upgraded weather and damage effects, and an array of new details to discover.

I've never been so hyped to buy the same game twice 2 years in a row at full price.

That would be a bit odd if those things are only in the pc version, i do hope that in the pc version that they add a slider for the traffic and not just ''traffics increased, deal with it.''.

 

[kriskrosbbk]

Is there a small chance this game to be released before the months containing the letter "R" in them?

Spoiler

July/August?

 

[Dabanton]

Unless they plan on adding a ton more missions and heists the Online is going to flop again.

In what world did it 'flop'? The servers are always packed.

And I always see a constant number of level 1-20's which mean new players are always coming through.

 

[UrbanRats]

This is a really good comparison

That's a bigger improvement than i initially thought, wow.

It would be ideal mid august. I hope no later than September.

That's a bigger improvement than i initially thought, wow.

It's a massive improvement. I think GTAV in it's current PS360 guise looks stunning, but what they show in the trailer is mindblowing.

I can't wait to re-explore. Los Santos is such a technical marvel.

 

[Cyborg]

This is just crazy, a lot of my friends will buy this and a PS4. They were stunned it would come to PS4.

 

[Thoraxes]

FWIW (you don't have to believe me if you do not want to; I did), a friend of a friend who works as a tester with Nvidia has been telling me about the PC version since last July, so i'd assume they've been working pretty closely with them to make a nicely optimized version for the PC this time around.

Hopefully it ends up being the case.

 

[FloweryMarston]

there's a fucking cat in the trailer!!! When franklin is cleaning his car, at his left you can see a cat up in the wall. Rockstar is too OCD jesus christ

Errm... how was he able to freely place the camera on the PS3 version?

 

[curlycare]

That's a bigger improvement than i initially thought, wow.

Yeah, now I'm happy they took their time with it. It was worth the wait imo.

 

[woen]

This was already one of the best looking open-world games, this will be... just wow.
I'm scared to see how good it will look on a high-end PC compared to the PS4.
I hope they fixed the "same car everywhere in the area" issue with the huge RAM capacity.

Love the depth of field btw

 

[FloweryMarston]

Errm... how was he able to freely place the camera on the PS3 version?

probably he used a camera without the borders.

 

[1970 Chevelle SS]

Finally my wait for the PC version will be answered.

In the same scene there is also a new type of dog that wasn't in GTA V IIRC. Double dip for sure.

 

[digoutyoursoul]

Does anyone else like the games pause menu music ? I find it strangely soothing

Have you played The Ballad of Gay Tony? The Pause Theme is even better, imo.

Never heard that much even though I've played it, very nice thanks

Yeah I noticed that it seems that other NPC's can have pets as well now.

 

[MJLord]

I wonder if we're going to see any more of this? Apart from 10 seconds worth of snap footage that's almost all we've seen.

 

[Net_Wrecker]

Yeah I noticed that it seems that other NPC's can have pets as well now.

Random stuff like this, the improved density, and wildlife additions make me want to double dip and I didn't even think the game was that great. I'd just like to experience what those do to the open world. Can't justify buying it at full price when I'm already looking at like 10 new games between Sept-Dec, but I'll try to get it on the cheap just to gawk for a few hours.

lol at the construction worker on the PS3 version 'glides' out of the way of the truck

 

[Sande]

So the best games of 2014 are going to be Last of Us and GTAV. Alright then.

Have they said anything about framerate? The main reason I sold my copy of GTAV was the low framerate, especially while driving. If it isn't 60fps, I might not double-dip.

I just hope it's not all added at the expense of a locked 30fps on PS4

 

[kriskrosbbk]

Do we expect this game to be better looking than Watch_Dogs on PS4?

 

[SolidSnakex]

You've seen what it loos like on the PS4, so you can compare them already. I'll go with yes.

 

[Gangxxter]

Lol, in the last-gen version Los Santos looks like a ghost town. Hopefully Rockstar isn't bullshitting us again and the next-gen version looks exactly like in the trailer. The trailers for the last-gen version looked all so much better than the final game.

FWIW (you don't have to believe me if you do not want to; I did), a friend of a friend who works as a tester with Nvidia has been telling me about the PC version since last July, so i'd assume they've been working pretty closely with them to make a nicely optimized version for the PC this time around.

Hopefully it ends up being the case.

I believe you. In one of the AMD beta drivers was also a GTA V profile included some months ago.

 

[kriskrosbbk]

Yep, the gamersyde trailer looks awesome.Yes indeed.

 

[computers putin']

I got excited when I first heard the announcement, but really I'm not in a rush to replay GTA V, and since I found the online mode to be completely disappointing and lackluster, I'm not really excited to comeback to that either. A complete overhaul to the online mode, a significant amount of additional content, or 60 fps might entice me to buy GTA V again (all of those thing combined would make it a sure purchase from me though), otherwise I'm fine on passing on this; my backlog is too big, and too many games are coming out for me to revisit something I beat recently.

 

[kevcampbell]

Has anyone put much thought into the graphically improved strip clubs?

 

[Camisado]

Dear gods of video games. Please launch the steam version of this game with built in steamworks support for mods. Please...

 

[Artex]

Personally I'm expecting a locked 30, which is bueno.

 

[SolidSnakex]

Competing with Rockstar in the open-world space just seems like one of the hardest challenges any dev can be up against right now. Especially when it's in a modern setting. They're really head and shoulders above everyone else.

 

[ekim]

tbh - I like the lighting better in the last gen version for some reason. I don't know why tho.

 

[slash3584]

So, should we expect the usual Rockstar teasing marketing, or maybe they'll give us more detailed info on what's new soon?

 

[UrbanRats]

Just saw it.
Megaton.

 

[boeso]

That new grass/foliage looks great! Should make the hunting a bit more interesting.

I would also love a harpoon to take on sharks and some sort of catamaran I can live on and also gills. So Water World mode please.

 

[offshore]

That comparison video is great. Like was mentioned earlier in the the thread, traffic.gif is so good. It really looks impressive.

 

[Hip Hop]

I really hate replaying the campaign in games, but this will be a treat to playthrough once again with all the new stuff.

 

[UrbanRats]

That comparison video is great. Like was mentioned earlier in the the thread, traffic.gif is so good. It really looks impressive.

To be fair, there were moments on GTAV where the traffic was really dense, so the shot on the left isn't representative of the max load the game had.

 

[GlamFM]

Why does this get me so excited?

 

[red731]

Cat!

Based R*

 

[Grief.exe]

It would be ideal mid august. I hope no later than September.

August would be perfect. Later then that and the releases seem to ramp up at a ridiculous rate.

This year is extremely bottom heavy as far as releases are concerned.

 

[Humpernator]

Has anyone put much thought into the graphically improved strip clubs?

GeDoSaTo + GTA V x 4k + Stippers = Awkward moments with significant others.

 

[FloweryMarston]

Why does this get me so excited?

I will be extra careful to never kill any cat

 

[digoutyoursoul]

Ass pixels ftw

 

[Human_me]

Nahh I'm expecting a November date for this.

Heck I wouldn't be surprised if the PS4/Xbox One comes sooner than the pc.

Spoiler

I'm expecting the PC version to get delayed.

 

[Denton]

Seeing that comparison video I am so god damn happy I held out and didn't borrow the console version. It will be wonderful experiencing this glory for the first time in this state on PC.
