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

Wish I could like this game. Bought it for PS3 and have it free on PC thanks to Epic.

The driving physics just killed it stone dead, for me. Played and enjoyed every previous GTA. I loved the driving/handling in GTA 4. Loved it.
It was the best for me. I recall firing up GTAV on my PS3 at release and being horrified by the arcadey driving controls. Everything just felt slippery and non-weighted. I never did get used to it.

I hated not being able to lose control of the cars and bikes. I remember the first bike I tried in 5 and it could turn 90 degrees at top speed. Absolute nonsense.

I also hated the retrograde steps they made with the physics engine. A bus could no longer push a car. I mean, soooo much fun was had in the older GTAs using big vehicles as a battering ram. In 5, you just came to a dead stop if you hit a car with a bus. Seriously?!

I must have played all of 1 or 2 hours and decided - purely due to the driving - that it was garbage. No matter how good everything else may have been, GTA is a driving game. I had no interest in a driving game where the driving was that bad.
 
tTrailer in Dec, so game release a year or two later, on console. PC release? 2027 give or take :cry:

You'd really hope they release the pc version at the same time on this occasion, especially considering the new consoles are more like a PC than ever before.

Rockstar have just announced GTA 6 trailer coming next month LETS GOOOOOO



I've seen some YTbers announce this also, but i didn't think it was true
be good to have an official announcement for the game :)
 
I'm guessing they'll release it on console first like with GTA 5 to cash in on the double dippers,

They may even bundle it in with the PS5 Pro which is rumoured to be released the end of next year as an exclusive for a few months as they did that with the expanded and enhanced version of GTA 5
 
Well the "Chop Shop" DLC was added today.

My first impression is meh.

The business only updates once a week, so once you have done the 3 cars on offer, you have to wait 7 days.......... and the business cost me 5.7 million.

You can now buy a cop car........

However as there are none of the PS5/Xbone X/S features, it is very lite on new content. and what is available is stupidly expensive.
 
Has anyone noticed the traffic being Online being a lot less lately or am I trippin?

Is it normal for GTA 5 to hardly use any CPU?
Rig in sig,pretty much maxed details and getting around 150-170 FPS at 165hz 1440p.

CPU utilisation - 14%
GPU utilisation - 92%

Buttery smooth,looks great just wondering about the CPU utilisation. :)

You're not at a CPU bound resolution and everything is maxed putting more bearing on the GPU not CPU, anything 12th gen and up will be sitting at below 20% utilisation with such an old engine.
