Grand Theft Auto V - Released on PC

[Curious_Tongue]

I'm playing GTA5 story mode and GTA Online parallelly since it came out, so far I am:

- absolutely shocked how rich in content this game is. It's unbelievable how much work it consumed.

Not that I'm complaining, but a lot of it didn't add to the overall game.

Hikers, fishermen, beach dwellers etc... You watch them and try to appreciate the amount of work that went into such small details, then you come to the conclusion that they should have devoted those resources to the main game itself.

If any game deserves 10/10 score, it's GTA5. I can't think of any other title being so near to be a "perfect entertaiment".

Yet, multiplaye asider, it's a lesser game than San Andreas.

Anyone want to help me with escape from prison heist? I'm stuck with it, cause i can't find the crew. My account name is Mas_Pingon.

Meh, i'll play some online once i finish the game. Online so far is a huge disappointment anyway, i hope the heists are worth it.

 

[J_C]

Is there any reason to play the heists online, if I like and play Payday 2?

 

[Havoc]

As always... the main guys in any RPGCodex group - Pollacks.

Well the reason would be that you can't do them offline? lol

 

[dbx]

So, should i shell 60 euros for this?

What I really mean is that are these heist well developed enough to rival Payday 2?

Red Dead Redemption was clunky, vapid as fuck. Only Act 1 in that game was "good" (and that was b/c of Bonnie).

 

[Sothpaw]

This is a good GTA game but it is so fucking easy. All three special abilities are way too powerful. Also what is up with the races; is it even possible to not get 1st place?

Graphics and performance are both as good as it gets and the soundtack is awesome. Also glad they made flying a big part of the game again.

RDR always puts me to sleep.. The mellow music, the clopping of horse hooves, the ambient noises. I'll probably never finish it - too relaxing.

 

[Multidirectional]

Am I the only one who's not a big fan of radio stations in V?

 

[Havoc]

I only turn on the Rock one. Queen sometimes plays on it.

Yeah it's all shit for the most part. At least Rebel Radio has two Johnny Cash songs (well, one of his and one Highwaymen song), he was a bro. I mean, would it have killed their budget to add a bay area metal radio in the mix, too? Licensing costs would've been a fraction of the pop channel. A classical station would've been nice too.

 

[Multidirectional]

Liberty Rock in IV was better anyway, and Iggy Pop was a fun host.

 

[DDZ]

You had Jimmy Gestapo on the hardcore radio there too, which was pretty awesome.

If you drive in the county you can listen to that radio station that has Kenny Powers, it's fucking hilarious.

 

[RedScum]

 

[Zed]

Queen, Yes, Starship, Creedence, Kansas, and some of the songs on Rebel Radio are okay.

Other than that; yeah the radio kinda suck.

[Havoc]

FAT SHAMING!

 

[yes plz]

Are they tied to story progression or something similar or do the talk radio shows have very little content? It might just be nostalgia but I remember San Andreas' (and maybe Vice City's) radio talk shows having more variation in what the hosts talked about.

 

[SerratedBiz]

I've had radio news talk about missions I've finished around the city, but I don't listen much to the news so it has only been a few instances in passing.

I wouldn't compare the two. GTA has heists that are on an open map, there's no abilities and specializations, and it's more about the various vehicles - it shows that they clearly didn't want an outright competition with Payday and decided to have crazy stunts with jets, helicopters with miniguns and rocket launchers, armored cars, etc. to play to GTA's strength rather than out-Payday Payday 2. Payday obviously has more depth to the shooting&stealth part heists, because that's the sole focus of it.

On the other hand, stealth in GTA can be approached in different ways, you can go up close to melee/silenced pistol the enemies, or snipe them from a hill because you have this huge open map. Same goes for shootouts where you can do a drive by attack or go in on foot or get a helicopter and shoot everyone from the air... etc.
