[QUOTE=FlubberNugget;42257410]waiting 6+ months isn't missing out? potentially getting the whole story and plotline isn't missing out?[/QUOTE] Survived the wait between GTA 4 Console and PC release without knowing anything about the story other than there was a cousin named Roman who liked to do bowling minigames.

[QUOTE=FlubberNugget;42257410]waiting 6+ months isn't missing out? potentially getting the whole story and plotline isn't missing out?[/QUOTE] How is having restraint and wanting a better experience missing out? If he were to get it now he would be [i]missing out[/i] on everything he listed. It's his prerogative to wait for the PC release.
good for you. but some people aren't so lucky. i had the ending spoiled for me before the game [I]released[/I]
personally im gonna wait until the game goes on sale for $20 on steam
[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;42257449]patience is a virtue that most gamers ive seen seem to lack[/QUOTE] am i forcing you to buy it now? that's your choice. i'm just saying this game is so great i'd say you're missing out if you have to wait more than half a year to play it [editline]20th September 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=OutLawed Blade;42257455]How is having restraint and wanting a better experience missing out?

then don't jump the gun and call me impatient next time, sheesh. i'm not shoving these words down anyone's throat.
[QUOTE=FlubberNugget;42257459]good for you. but some people aren't so lucky. i had the ending spoiled for me before the game [I]released[/I][/QUOTE] Also personal preference comes into play, I really don't mind having a game like GTA 5 spoiled because i'm going to spend several hundred hours doing free roam things anyways. The ~30 hours of story I may or may not pay full attention too between missions and goofing around in free roam don't matter as much to me.
i think most people will find v's story a lot more engaging. unlike iv it's actually enjoyable rather than 'go kill x person then return to me and complain about why you moved here'
Didn't had that much hype for the game but as soon you realise how fucking massive and detailed the world is you just want to play more. And of course the many things to do. A better treat is that soon GTA Online will be unlocked which would make me stick to the couch permanently. :v:
[QUOTE=FlubberNugget;42257468]and it's my prerogative to say he's missing out having to wait so long. big deal.[/QUOTE] You called his reasons meaningless which is a stupid thing to say. They obviously aren't if he listed them. Who are you to tell someone how to spend their money on a fucking video game.
wow jesus christ you are getting a tid bit hostile over a small comment [editline]20th September 2013[/editline] am i not allowed to have my own views on what is meaningful? lmao
Sure, just don't be a dick about it by saying "those relatively meaningless reasons lol". You sound like an asshole that did nothing but assert his opinion as fact.
whatever you want to think i meant by that, bud. i don't really care
We have been 7-10 people short at work every day since release from people calling in sick
[QUOTE=Jimmyshimmy;42257682]We have been 7-10 people short at work every day since release from people calling in sick[/QUOTE] i've been off for the past few days because of a a really bad flu coincidentally and people keep accusing me of taking off just to play a video game :(

[QUOTE=FlubberNugget;42257410]waiting 6+ months isn't missing out? potentially getting the whole story and plotline isn't missing out?[/QUOTE] playing through what is arguably the most significant game of a generation on extremely outdated, inferior hardware at mediocre framerate while dealing with things such as texture pop in, generally poor vision distance and lack of anti-aliasing is what I would describe as missing out. I have a PS3 and a 360 and I could easily afford to buy it but I won't because I don't want to ruin it for myself.

[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;42257870]lets get real here its probably gonna be not great on pc tbch[/QUOTE] Eh, hopefully R* learned from their GTA IV port and at least tried to optimize it this time around.
[QUOTE=squids_eye;42256411]They'll make even more by delaying it. Half the people who will buy it for PC will probably have already caved and bought it for a console and they will probably buy it again when it releases.[/QUOTE] Got it for Xbox, definitely getting it for PC when it comes out
[QUOTE=SGTNAPALM;42257870]lets get real here its probably gonna be not great on pc tbch[/QUOTE] Ever played the Max Payne 3 PC port? I mean, yeah, i suppose different internal teams, but still, same engine, i'd hope they'd compare notes. [editline]20th September 2013[/editline] And im saying that cause, well, PC Max Payne 3 ran fucking amazingly well.
[QUOTE=Jimmyshimmy;42257682]We have been 7-10 people short at work every day since release from people calling in sick[/QUOTE] Calling in sick over a game release is such an asshole thing to do. This is probably why bosses stalk peoples facebooks trying to catch them in lies when they call in sick and update their status as "Enjoying the beach!" etc.
Okay, you've made your money, pc version now pls.

[editline]20th September 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=Used Car Salesman;42258500]Okay, you've made your money, pc version now pls.[/QUOTE]That's probably what they're doing, between that and GTA Online AND the PS4 and Xbone versions.

That's our choice though. I have a PS3, I could get it, but I'd rather wait to get a better experience. Or the port could be horrible and I'm fucked both ways. It's my decision and it's my money.

I don't buy 60$ games anymore. So I'm waiting for a price drop or a PC release. Or I'll find a friend and buy it off them for like half price after they're done with it.

[/QUOTE] How are these not reasons to hold off getting the game? By the sound of it you don't play a lot of PC games. Going from smooth 60 FPS to the 25-30 FPS is fucking awful and it looks slow. Also low textures, no AA, and shit resolutions compared to things PC gamers are used to DOES make the game look bad. I'm not saying "PC MASTUR RACE" but to completely disregard what people are used to is silly.
