Rockstar releases 15 new 4K screenshots from the PC version of GTA V - Polidicks

If I squint it looks like real life.

So I see all the nice screenshots, but do we have any in-motion gameplay of the PC version at all?

Why does Michaels face have such a bad texture, it looks so weird compared to the rest of his head

now see mediocrity in high definition

[QUOTE=Ganerumo;47227552]The PC gaming community is honestly full of babies who are never happy with anything.[/QUOTE] After such a long wait I'm guessing people wanna see results of the delays. And those pictures really aren't showing those.

[QUOTE=Melnek;47228410]without those same "babies" graphical innovation would stagnate because there would be no demand yes, that means pointing out the graphical shortcomings in the dogs fur and the backseat of a car are valid things. in fact, they should be welcomed.[/QUOTE] LOL, we are not talking about rendering a room with a dog sitting on a sofa. If you want to render a whole damn city then you need to sacrifice some detail. Not understanding that basic concept and limitations of current hardware is what makes them graphical "babies". I saw people complaining about the level of detail on soldiers in a total war game, they expect Crysis graphics where there a thousand units on the screen. That is plain stupid and ignorant. I remember playing Shogun Total war 15 years ago when the soldier was a 16x16 2D sprite, it blows my mind how the games look now, but I would never expect it to have the level of detail of a FPS game.

[QUOTE=gk99;47227014]Uh, neither of these are preferable so I don't see your point[/QUOTE] In the history of the internet has anyone ever posted 30fps and silky smooth in the same sentence without it being separated by the word not and been serious about it? I know sarcasm does not translate well over the internet, but it's too hard to be more blatant.

[QUOTE=Van-man;47229462]Why settle for something mediocre when there's potentiality for something greater?[/QUOTE] Because one needs to know when to stop. The people who want 60fps/1080p in every game are fine, because they're right to ask for that. The people who want >60fps/4K in every game with fully redone textures and shaders exclusively for their high end PC [I]and[/I] who want the game released at the same time as consoles with all those previously mentioned things already in there are hilariously entitled.

Especially stuff as dumb as "this backseat of a car in an open world game is poorly rendered". It's not like the devs at rockstar or anywhere else are unable to make high-poly models for anything or don't want to, it's that considering what they have to work with (ie not everyone owning a war machine for a PC and playing in 4K resolution) they can't afford to make games that detailed, you need to cut corners on some aspects if you want the thing to even run. And no, they're not going to remake every asset in the game to be high poly specifically for the considerably small minority of video gaming enthusiasts who play on 4K monitors at maximum graphical settings.

Looks like shit, next!

My graphics card is not even going to be able to render the installation screen.

I think they should turn down the damage on Trevor's hands a bit. [url=http://media.rockstargames.com/rockstargames/img/global/news/upload/gtav02272015_13.jpg]They look worm-infested in this photo[/url]

I still really don't like how the characters look. Not their design, but their actual.. aesthetic make-up. It's weird, GTAIV and Max Payne 3 had this for me too, they look so weirdly inhuman. Max is the only character in MP3 who I could stand to look at for more than like, twenty seconds without feeling the need to vomit.

[QUOTE=Oicani Gonzales;47230098]um this is a 1080p crop [t]http://puu.sh/gggmI/293a8257f3.jpg[/t] it's still PRETTY obvious, mate. the lods are bad in that picture. that picture is probably the worst, you can really see some horrid textures there, like in the billboards and in that lower left window [editline]28th February 2015[/editline] someone noticed that this picture was probably edited a bit to remove the finger clipping [url]http://media.rockstargames.com/rockstargames/img/global/news/upload/gtav02272015_15.jpg[/url] look at the lower right of the phone[/QUOTE] So long as the GTA V game engine is "just" a better ported and also optimized version of the GTA IV engine, then modders will probably be quick to iron out the flaws that Rockstar didn't Half the fun of the GTA series is to tinker with the game in order to make wack shit happen.

I've noticed that an awfully large amount of people here are being unnecessarily-aggressive with their criticism just to be part of the "lol fuck u rockstar!1!!" bandwagon. Criticism is good but when you're just typing "haha looks like trash lmao" you look like a fool. Funnily enough most of these people are still going to buy the game, they're just pretending to hate on it because it makes them feel smart.

I honestly don't care if they even add all the graphical improvement, I just want the convenience and keyboard/mouse.

[QUOTE=Megadave;47230909]I honestly don't care if they even add all the graphical improvement, I just want the convenience and keyboard/mouse.[/QUOTE] I want it to run and play like a PC game, not a port. That's all.

can someone criticizing the LOD distance for these screenshots show me a game with such an expansive open world with something considerably better

[QUOTE=itisjuly;47230893]A lot of words but I'm not sure what you're trying to say here[/QUOTE] That's a lot of words for you? Basically people being all "yeah look at me i hate this game" just to try and look different from everyone else, when the truth is they still want the game and will likely buy it on release.

I sure hope the new settings allow you to scale everything back and run it on older hardware. The new goodies are nice and all, but it's gonna be several years before I have the money to really enjoy them.
