***Official GTAV PC Thread*** [Important warning updated in the OP]

GTA4 physics were ridiculous though - and not in a good way.

I agree, the crash physics in 5 could do with a slitght buff, but I like the way the cars handle. I think that Motorbikes are hilarious, almost like the are on rails!

Think I'm going to take my new $10k Pro Bicycle for a "round los santos" trip this evening. All the way around the map sticking where possible to the coast. For me this is very appealing.

Not to shabby. Will see how it plays later, if it can hold a stable 60 I will be chuffed!
 
Brilliant night tonight, 13 people all on TS doing an online racing playlist.

OMG the rage when you get spun out...amazing! Must say that is the most fun I've had online in a long time.

Epic banter chaps!

These things are really really really really really really ****ing me of with MP:

- the loading, I literally spend the majority of time on the ****ing loading screen
- when racing games etc. are over, get kicked out of the lobby and put onto a different server to everyone else which results in even more loading
- not much point trying to win races when you got high rank players with better driving etc. skills, they just win so easily

Cheese with your whine, or would you rather borrow Sideys salt? :D

It's a game, I'd rather muck about and have fun!

Oh, so then you guys don't mind if I do lots of ramming?! :D

I was being good tonight as previous nights, people seemed to be getting rather annoyed, will resume to 100% troll then :D Although it might cause a bit too much rage for TS..... :p

I do, why ram? If you get nudged when your in the middle of a big group fair do's but if you want to just ram people all game you can go find your own lobby to play in.
 
Headphones are really subjective, I don't think I know that many people with the same ones tbh.

I have Corsair 1500V2 which are nice, 7.1 dolb and comfy. Probably might be an idea to go to somewhere that knows music/sound quality and try on loads to see how they feel/sound beforehand bud.

So glad this is getting some publicity.

We tried a couple of games last night, and unless you get absolutely everything in alignment you're pinged out on to another server. If the load times were quick, it wouldn't be too much of a hardship but you feel like you're punished for not going back in to free roam after a couple of matches.

Trying to get on a job together (save for heists) is a royal pain, but I doubt they're going to do anything to fix it short of redesigning the whole matchmaking mechanic. :(

We managed to get a 13 person race going last night in a private lobby. Playlist for the race ended, 6 of us were in one server, 3 in another and so on.

They need something like Battlelog for BF4 - there are too many options, to many bugs and too much faffing around!
 
As you said yourself:

"It's a game, I'd rather muck about and have fun!"

"That's it. If I want a try hard race I'd play Dirt3."

:p

Yeah but mucking about and having fun isn't the same as "just troll and ram all the way through the race". As you said yourself that causes "much rage" - I want to chill out and laugh not get ragey at a game.

If I get spun out or hit I don't cry about "higher ranks" and then turn around and too spite everyone intend to ram at every opportunity.

I actively try to avoid ramming, sometimes it's bloody hard, esp with boulders, cars, peds, and dodgy handling.

Are you just salty because you don't finish top on everything like BF4? ;)
