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

[QUOTE=Nemisis116;46897635]Is it too late for a PC trailer?[/QUOTE] A trailer is only late if it comes out after the product. So no. Also this is cool. Though the music is a bit loud [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W4BbekGmNBk[/media]

[QUOTE=Alyx Zark;46897526]I haven't been following this much, but I still believe GTA will come on the 26th. It's really last minute to announce a delay.[/QUOTE] They've retconned history so that it's scheduled to come out on the 27th.

[QUOTE=Ray551;46897477]I love fighting the first few waves in Survival, because it doesn't take 8 shots with a heavy handgun to take enemies down. [img]http://abload.de/img/gtapistolasf16.gif[/img] Seriously, is it just me or are many enemies in the later stages of the game really tanky?[/QUOTE] the survival enemies seriously have no health, even at wave 10 it takes two shots to pop anything running around with an AK-47 shooting everyone and seeing them actually die feels good

I disagree, usually by wave 10 im putting 6-7 heavy MG rounds into jean+tshirt wearing crackies

I don't know if it's lag or what but sometimes even after I shoot enemies in survival and they go down they're still alive and I have to fire a good deal into them to finish them off, otherwise they just lay there for the entire round. I really hope the netcode is improved in the PC version or we get dedicated servers or something because it's pretty ridiculous the amount of shit lag causes in this game.

You shoot them, they fall over, they're injured to a point where they can't get back up but they're not dead either.

The game rewarded you by insta-killing enemies with head-shots and they wouldn't go to the incapacitated state. Personally one of the best details that they put into that game.

Can you pull out guns in current-gen or is ghosting the limit of improvement on passive? Because you need that feature when you're being chased by cops and while robbing a store etc. [editline]10th January 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=Ray551;46897477]I love fighting the first few waves in Survival, because it doesn't take 8 shots with a heavy handgun to take enemies down.

Never.

Robbing stores and being in police chases isn't passive lmao

[QUOTE=proch;46897932]I noticed that in Online enemies generally are fucking bullet sponges.[/QUOTE] Gatekeeper and I did "Dry Docking" yesterday. For some reason sometimes enemies would shoot at me and I would take zero damage, like my character was full of bullet holes but I still had full health, and the out of suddenly a merryweather guy shoot at me and I died instantly. GTA:O uses a P2P connection system, which is pretty bad at times, it makes enemies do four times the normal damage or make them bullet sponges.

[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;46898304]How do you spend $150m on a game and not have dedicated servers? If PC had official dedicated servers, I'd preorder right now, but I just don't see $150m in this game. [b]They really didn't even advertise THAT much.[/b][/QUOTE] What about this? [t]http://i.imgur.com/RebKllJ.jpg[/t]

-snip- I actually genuinely forgot current-gen came out on sept 17

I wonder how air control in vehicles are going to work for KB+M.

It's not like it's a brand new IP nobody knows about. [editline]10th January 2015[/editline] [QUOTE=deadfall07;46898401]I wonder how air control in vehicles are going to work for KB+M.[/QUOTE] For helicopters I'd hope something like WASD to move in directions, Q and E to turn, and shift and control to raise/lower respectively. For planes, replace A and D with rotation and shift and control with speed up/down.

Okay I had to delete the game and try to reinstall since my singleplayer was fucked but now every time I try to reinstall it gets stuck at 49-50%. Does anyone know how to fix this fucking piece of shit game so that I can play it again? I can just hear the disc tray whirring up and then stopping over and over and it's driving me insane. [editline]asdf[/editline] The internet recommended pulling out the weird rubber stopper from underneath the eject button and for some reason that worked. I think my ps4 wasn't reading the disc properly because it just kept starting and stopping but that seems to have fixed it maybe.

Anyone on PS4? I'm running Rooftop rumble a lot, generally doing missions for cash. Found a sweet spot in Railyard Survival that basically makes it a grindfest, but it takes to long and the payout sucks. Add me, SGT-Spartans

Could unload several pistol clips into their chest, and they'd still get up for more. You NEEDED to use headshots!

However, dedicated server online multiplayer will probably be implemented via mods such as [URL="http://www.multiv.mp/site/index.php"]MultiV[/URL] (and the hugely talented developers).

[QUOTE=RenegadeCop;46898508]Detail is great and all, but was it really a choice of "detail or dedicated servers"? Yeah I love the artstyle there and in the loading screens, but I don't live in that city so I never saw that. All I saw is commercials in TV that ran for a week or 2.[/QUOTE] Just because you don't see an ad for something doesn't mean there wasn't a huge ad campaign for it. I rarely see ads for games but I'm still aware of the huge campaigns going on and the money behind them.

Decided to start up singleplayer again, grabbed a motorcycle and visited the forest outside Los Santos. Drove straight down a creek and ended up hitting a boar and getting flinged off, turn around and it's still standing. Edit: Managed to find something neat in the mission Fame or Shame: Right when Lazlow gets into his car, if you manage to shoot him once and spam hijack on his car, it will start driving itself.

Even reinstalling the game didn't fix the no phone call/property missions thing. Franklin's just been sat in his car on the side of the road listening to the same ten songs on repeat waiting for a phone call that never comes.

[QUOTE=gk99;46898396]-snip- I actually genuinely forgot current-gen came out on sept 17[/QUOTE] last gen came out on sept 17 2013. current gen came out dec 14 2014.

[QUOTE=ClarkWasHere;46899167]last gen came out on sept 17 2013. current gen came out dec 14 2014.[/QUOTE] Yeah, I'd just woken up when I posted that, so mind was in the gutter. The 7 in Janurary 27th and the 1 from Dec 14 came together and I didn't pay attention to the month when I posted it. Oh well, either way I was wrong.

[QUOTE=ClarkWasHere;46899167]last gen came out on sept 17 2013. current gen came out dec 14 2014.[/QUOTE] Nov 18 actually

[QUOTE=realtaylers;46899070]Franklin's just been sat in his car on the side of the road listening to the same ten songs on repeat waiting for a phone call that never comes.[/QUOTE] Sounds like my love life.

Some guy picked me up in his car, and we went to his apartment. after staying there for a bit, we drove around in his car again, and stopped at Ponsonby's. He changed into a suit, and then we drove to Del Perro Pier. I realized he was taking me on a fucking date. I sent him a message, "Sorry, but I'm not interested. I'm a lesbian." *Ik1key has left the session*

I rarely see ads for games but I'm still aware of the huge campaigns going on and the money behind them.[/QUOTE] In the latest issue of PCGamer there's an ad for it which says the release date is January 27 and ironically says to "pre order now" even though we still can't on Steam. In fact the ad doesn't even mention Steam or has a Steam logo on it at all which further confirms Steam isn't required.
