Grand Theft Auto V - Released on PC

[Spectacle]

Could not possibly care less about GTA5 on PC. Already played it on PS4 and didn't like it even as much as Watch Dogs. Got to be the most overrated game ever.

But you care enough to post in this thread, so obviously it's still possible for you to care a tiny bit less.

I care about making sure every man, woman, and child on the Codex is enlightened by my superior opinions, not about the game.

 

[Trash]

Loved it on my 360. Looking very much forward to giving it a spin on my pc.


Yeah, I'm really looking for an excuse to spend a shitload of money on a new upgrade.

What these screens are lacking is antialiasing, can't imagine why they would choose to post them like that. I assume this time game has actual AA support.

..?

I know what no-AA looks like, and that isn't it. It'd be far more jagged.

The screens are in 4k and without AA. Higher resolution works like AA, 4k without AA is like 1080p with 8xAA

 

[Multidirectional]

It seems like 4k without AA to me as well. Though I would say that 1080p with AA > 4k without AA. Higher resolution doesn't remove aliasing, just makes it less obvious. Some kind of AA is always needed.

 

[Daedalos]

This is fucking HILARIOUS.

Was watching it at work, almost had to contain myself from sputtering and laughing my ass off out loud, my coworkers are gettin' scared.

Oh man.. This guys laugh is so contagious... :D :D !

I feel secure in keeping my pre-order. The game's recommended specs include some of the hardware I have specifically, like a 2GB HD7870, and I believe that AMD processor as well. If it doesn't run on day one, I will have a good enough case to bug Steam for a refund imho. I'm looking forward to enjoying this game without having to use fucking analogue sticks, so fuck it.

Yeah I tried it for a bit on my friends PS4 and all I could think of was how much better it will play with kb/m. Some people actually believe gamepads are better for all third person games, they are dumb.

The only thing that is better with kb+m is aiming a gun. Everything else (moving, driving, fighting) is better with gamepad. But since GTAV has lots of these things, you have to make a compromise either way.

All freelook-enabled games must support mouse and keyboard. There is no acceptable alternative.

Controls seemed a lot like GTAIV to me, in which everything including driving plays a lot better with kb/m.

Someone spent entirely too much time learning how to drift fighter jets.

 

[Multidirectional]

Reminds me of all the time I wasted on planes in San Andreas, except this is 10x more awesome of course.

 

[Gerrard]

I'm pretty sure that's not how planes work.

The Witcher 3 system requirements announced.

You are welcome. ;-)

 

[Multidirectional]

GTA V is a better excuse for upgrade than Witcher 3. It has, like, actually fun gameplay.

 

[Icewater]

nigga you gay

 

[Genma:TheDestroyer]

If it's considered gay to prefer this over Geralt-

...wow, I don't remember where I was going with this. Carry on.

The difference is that in Witcher's case the requirements are justified.

 

[Multidirectional]

If you say so.

Guys, if I were going to buy this or Watch Dogs, who is better? I mean, I played GTA 4 and that thing left me traumatized. Most of the missions on GTA IV were fucking boring, Rockstar decided to go more "realistic" and they did that by making every fucking mission on the game the same, shooting galleries, after shooting galleries, after shooting galleries when GTA is a fucking bare bones third person shooter.

What made GTA fun was the crazy shit you did on the missions. I saw the trailers of GTA V and it seems to not take itself so serious but that happen on the gameplay or what? Do I hijack an helicopter by jumping from an helicopter then explode US army tanks and drive the helicopter full of C4 on an army barracks on a mission or the "crazyness" of it is just to watch Trevor being a retard on cutscenes and the game is just shooting a bunch of boring dudes over and over, on boring linear shooting galleries?

 

[Zarniwoop]

GTA V is the least serious-taking game I've seen in a long time.

Trevor is a legend in the game as well, not just cutscenes. So is Michael. Token Black guy is pretty weak but this game is significantly different from the others in that it's more story and character driven than exploration driven. Unfortunately that also means the story is ridiculously short. Also the smallest map of all the GTAs as far as I remember. But at least it's entertaining while it lasts. Oh and the radio stations are the best since GTA 3 and KILLER BEES.

I don't know about this first person thing though, sounds retarded to me.

Just avoid Watch Dogs at all costs.
GTA V is miles better, Trevor has some "special" replayable missions in which you can have fun with heavy weaponary. There are some good moments of destruction in main campaign too.
