Euphoria is probably the best physics engine when used properly. The ragdolls look very realistic with Euphoria in comparison to Havok.

realism in GTA games to me is like adding arcady elements to a sim

So they can't attempt to make any alterations to your precious formula?

I didn't say that, they could have gone make it more crazy and fun instead of adding realism which made it less fun than what it could have been.

That's fair enough, it's totally a subjective thing and if you prefer that sort of thing you might be happier with Saints Row or sticking with GTA III/VC/SA.

Just thought of a simple solution for GTA 5 add a hardcore mode. So when you start the game people who want realistic physics, stricter cops, and other features to make the game more realistic can turn on the mode and for people like me who want fan game play they can turn it off.

what to do guys think?

The physics in GTA4 are awesome, the game wouldn't be have as much fun without that.

Ridiculous. They'd basically have to have two versions of the game for what you want.

Two physics engines? Double the development time

Stricter cops? Not even sure what you mean by this, the cops in 3-SA were just as strict

same physics engine different settings

Stricter cops like in mafia 2 to make the game more serious

I don't get all the hate for IV. They had a go at taking the series in another direction. COD is vilified for sticking to it's core gameplay, Rockstar had the balls to change. Thats not to say they wouldn't return to their over the top style of San Andreas. This is a series that has entertained me with every iteration so I'm prepared to trust their judgement and forgive them the odd mistake.

GTA IV still impresses me though. It successfully created a believable, gritty city full of tiny details and some funny characters.

Can't wait for V!

COD comes out every year, GTA doesn't thats the difference

It makes more of a difference then. I don't want to wait years just for the last game with better graphics. Surprise me, try something new with the time. If some people don't like it, then there's the next game to try again. Don't get stuck in a rut.

Not sure what your point is. They didn't have the hardware capabilities back then and gamers didn't expect as much from games as they do now either.

You only have to look at Saints Row 2 to see what a crappy physics engine does to a game.

You talk about fun but in the same sentence you want stricter cops like in Mafia 2? One of my biggest problems with that game was the need to constantly crawl through the traffic lights in case a cop was nearby, or drive around town with the limiter on.

What fun.

OR, You could buy Saints Row 3 and not GTA V?

not for me I was think about people who like the realism and a serious tone

For me GTA IV offered a good balance between the two though. The OTT police in Mafia II are an example of too much strictness and realism.

I like both, but cops pulling you over for speeding and running lights is annoying. It was okay in the first Driver game but in GTA it would be a mistake.

K1LLSW1TCH · 7 Nov 2011 at 01:53

Especially considering the probable size of the map and the amount of time spent driving. The map in Mafia II wasn't particularly big and even though it was a pain in the biscuits having to regulate your speed and stop at the lights you were never *that* far away from your destination in the first place. That amount of stop/start in this upcoming game would be disastrous.
