Grand Theft Auto V

[Bocephus86]

Yeah, man, it's brutally tough to get 3 decent teammates together to work through a heist mission.

Edit: If you're on ps4 my brother and I wouldn't mind helping you out with some heists.

That is what I played on; appreciate the offer but it's been a long time since I've last played and I can barely keep up with my current backlog so I've kind of moved on from GTA5. I should have posted here years ago when I was looking for people to play with though haha.

I agree... the freshness of the graphics and seeing Liberty City in clean HD was the only saving grace of the game, in my opinion.

Niko was an uninspired, unrelatable character, reminded me a lot of Claude from GTA 3. The relationship with Roman was way overplayed and un-funny.

That, and when all was said and done you were left with a big beautiful city that had...nothing to do.

Money was stupidly pointless also. You spend half the game bitching about being poor and then when you actually begin to get a nice chunk of $ in the game (way too early IMO) after you rob the bank....there's nothing good to buy.

 

[Big McLargehuge]

I can honestly say that I did not have fun with GTA IV...which is the greatest crime a GTA can commit.

I never want to hear the words bowling or cousin again.

gta iv and v weren't as bad as people make it. only complaint is it taking two hours just to load GTA online.

Lamar Davis remains probably the best GTA supporting cast member of all time.

+1 to you. Good opinion, homie.

Well, I play a variety of different games and my PSN is the same as my name here, so if you ever want to play hockey or anything shoot me a friend request.

Yeah, that's a pretty annoying game-play arc.

I agree, GTA 4 was cool because it was the transition into the HD universe of GTA. I would imagine that this transition is what led to a weaker story-line and gameplay.

gta iv and v weren't as bad as people make it. only complaint is it taking two hours just to load GTA online.

I agree that GTA 5 is unfairly criticized, but GTA 4 was just not great in my opinion. It seemed like a shell of a GTA game with not a whole lot to do. It's the only GTA game that I don't have a desire to replay (I've replayed every other GTA since GTA 2).

gta iv isn't bad because of the dlc. plus the guest stars. Bill Burr in gta iv lol

Bill Burr in gta 4 was hilarious, lol. If you don't take the storyline seriously it's actually kind of funny. "Hey cousin... it is your cousin...."

If you want to enjoy GTAV online, I think you need to make your own server and have a sort of application join process.
That way you can customize the game to your liking with custom clothes, custom textures for vehicles, dispatch central for
emergency server and etc. You can also create a very strict set of rules to prevent people from just acting like a-hs.

Yeah, PC would be the ultimate for that. I play on ps4, so there's not much customization for me there. lol

I would recommend you to tune in at this twitch stream. They have their own custom made server and they put allot of work into it.
Hey won't play GTA V every night though and not much streaming the nearest week.

 

[John Price]

People keep criticizing GTA V but it was responsible for comedy like this.

 

[V13]

This is absolutely sick. Almost photorealistic. Some of the stuff look a bit weird like the wind blowing some leaves but overall it just look breathtaking

I've never liked mods that add real cars to GTA. It's immersion breaking, I don't know why more don't just make new cars for the existing manufacturers. Also, in the video the modded cars clearly have better textures than everything around them. It's a little off putting.

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

A GTA game with real licensed cars in it would be sweet.

Nah, GTA with invincible cars doesn't sound as fun.

I'll check that out. Always love watching streamers.

Holy Cannoli... This game blows my mind.

I agree here, I wouldn't want to play with these mods on, but they sure are pretty to look at!

I prefer the way it is now. I like the custom-made GTA vehicles because they cherry-pick different parts from different cars and it really makes for some awesome hodge-podge vehicles.

I remember the fuss around Gran Turismo when it first came out back in the PS1 days and people were like "Why no damage on the cars ? "

So yeah GTA without destructible cars wouldn't be GTA. But as a mod i think it look cool

They could incorporate a really good damage and physics system for once?

There was a variant of this as a cheat code for years in older versions of the game where cars would either float away or explode if you hit them with another car.

I really tried with GTA IV. Lasted about 5 missions. I guess it was a masterwork in its time.

Of course I was spoiled by finishing GTA V beforehand.

No. It sucked then too

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

IV is easily the worst GTA in the series.

 

[Fantomas]

No. It sucked then too

It got amazing reviews for some reason. Very drab looking game with many frustrating glitches.

Driving is what makes people dislike IV, because it's the most realistic driving physics (note: not saying it's realistic since it doesn't take 500m to brake & irl cars don't steer like boats, but when compared to the rest of the franchise) Rockstar has made in a GTA game. Most people don't want that in a GTA game.

Yeah I agree, I think realistic driving is more suited for racing games. While GTA could be considered a "driving game", I don't think driving is the main focus.

I can certainly see how playing GTA V before GTA IV would really put a damper on things, GTA IV was good for the transition to the HD universe, but that was about it.

Rockstar can do no wrong in many reviewers eyes. Most AAA games from huge developers get crazy high ratings, especially games like GTA which only come out like twice a decade.
