Grand Theft Auto Series Megathread V2: Give Me (GTA V) PC - Games

I have too much nostalgia for San Andreas and specially Vice City, it just never feels out of date. I find myself trying to 100% Vice City at least once a year. Though i understand anyone that didn't play them before tries to get into them these days, they wouldn't be able to. V just blasts all the other games out of the water if you don't have any kind of emotional attachment to them.

[QUOTE=TurtleeyFP;46604248]They aren't chronological, there's pretty much nothing connecting them other than easter egg cameos. To be honest the older ones don't really hold up. I would start with San Andreas but even that's not necessary, then IV/EFLC with an ENB and other ambient mods for the atmosphere, then V for improved everything.[/QUOTE] San Andreas holds up very well. The worst thing about it is the terrain textures out in the country.

Worst thing is CJ's head. Even for 2004 it was bad.

The hands were the worst part of San Andreas.

Yay, we can do mirror selfies now.. :v: [t]https://scontent-b-vie.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpa1/t31.0-8/10631150_10202108808522033_3845396110439803001_o.jpg[/t]

Rockstar's games always had shitty graphics on the PS2 and Xbox era. Now they're some of the best looking games out there.

[QUOTE=woolio1;46603661]All of your pics are broken.[/QUOTE] Yeah, Google Drive is a real bitch to show pictures, anyway, I fixed them. Infernus, the only super that looks decent, terrible handling though. [t]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7211550/Snapmatic/Current%20Gen/Season%201/11.jpg[/t]

Here's something I noticed, when you change the theme of your Online character's phone, it changes the color of the actual phone. Blue theme: [t]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7211550/Snapmatic/Current%20Gen/Season%201/16.jpg[/t] Gray theme: [t]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/7211550/Snapmatic/Current%20Gen/Season%201/17.jpg[/t] and so on.

Also mobile is shit, crashed 2 times trying to edit this post and it broke all of the links. FP app coming when?

I want to keep playing IV, but the delay in the movement system is starting to become irritating, how it takes you over a second to turn around, before some guy with a shotgun blasts all your armour and most of your health away.

GTA IV graphics seem more realistic while GTA V looks better (does that make sense?). Characters in V look like they're coated in some texture.

I can't stand GTAIV after playing V

I know many people will disagree with me, but I'm going to say it anyway. I prefer the driving in IV than in V.

A lot of people said that when v came out.

v's driving is better but iv's is more fun, i think?

IV's is fun because you can plow into another car going top speed and have everything turn into a pile of scrap. V's is better because they don't handle like bathtubs full of mercury, and you can turn a corner without almost coming to a dead stop.

Hey rockstar all i want is to be able to play with my friend without having to jump trough 5 different sessions just to get disconnected the instant i see him ):

Is it just me or did they update the collision detection on the cars in this version? When I try to avoid traffic, I end up barely clipping my mirror on another car and do a 1080 spin. Like seriously rockstar, is it really that hard to make mirrors just break off the car?

[QUOTE=Yummy Pie;46608950]I know many people will disagree with me, but I'm going to say it anyway. I prefer the driving in IV than in V.[/QUOTE] I agree. I think V is a bit more fun to just go fast and crazy in but it's also a lot easier. Pulling off nice maneuvers (shooting out the windshield while driving in reverse and pulling a J-turn hnng) and driving fast without hitting anything is way more satisfying in IV.

I remember the first time I did a reverse U-Turn in GTA. I felt Badass

Just saw (what I think is) a new trailer for GTA V during The Walking Dead. The bits I remember were: [sp]Trevor smacking someone with a chair, Michael getting mad at Righteous Slaughter 7, Franklin (I think) parachuting, and that crazy bicycle lady[/sp] Tagged in case people want to see for themselves if it gets uploaded anywhere.

Can't wait to replace all of the matte paint textures with crappy rusted versions of each color on PC. Sucks right now the only bangers are slow shitboxes entirely

V's map is way too big and has too much offroad stuff for IV's driving style It would take damn forever to get anywhere and be pretty much impossible to get up chiliad, IV was tiny and all flat

I never liked how loose/wobbly the cars were in IV.

What I'd want and never heard anyone talk about, is a port of Liberty City to V. The architecture and atmosphere with V's graphics, ped density and handling would be great. It's possible enough, when people ported Los Santos to IV the biggest problem was the engine's maximum map size and new shaders like flags and foliage sway. V almost definitely has backwards compatibility for the stuff that was in IV.

All top speeds were made ridiculously slow to compensate for how small and narrow Liberty City is.
