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

It's got more stuff and flashy bits than the console version. Should be good.

When playing currently i have to limit the frame rate as over a certain level it stutters cause the game can't cope. I believe the update increases the supported frame rate.
Correct, the update will both simultanously fix the high frame rate issue, and steal all your frames with the new graphics settings
 
I’m pretty excited for this tbh haha

Finally we will get proper anti aliasing with DLSS. Finally we will get proper shadows and the annoying little square box around the players character will be gone.

Let’s gooooo
 
So the Newswire notes mention they are implementing DLSS 3 - does this mean we will not be able to use the new transformer model DLSS upscaling methods because iirc that is DLSS 4? I’m a little confused as to how DLSS 3 & 4 differ
 
For me I don't have enough time to revisit older titles getting next gen upgrades.

Too many new games out and not enough time to play them let alone older titles.

True, but it's mainly unfinished slop. That's why I don't mind revisiting a remaster of a game I know I enjoyed at least. Not that GTA is one of them.

Well they have to give us something for the lack of GTA IV on PC. :cry:


What will be interesting is the kernel-based anti-cheat with the new Online lobbies for the E&E only version. Will it continue to be Battleye or something else?

I wonder what nightmare awaits us with that.
 
Hopefully RDR 2 will get some RT love soon too, that game whilst looks stunning has some horrible raster artifacts and often can look like a childs popup book with the game world having no depth (st dennis excluded)

Plus, take advantage of an improved introductory flow for newer players with a GTA$4,000,000 windfall to buy property, vehicles, and other items when you start off as an Executive, Gunrunner, Nightclub Owner, or Biker in the Career Builder.

GTA+ offers a wealth of special benefits that include GTA$ to bolster your GTA Online bank account in the form of GTA$500,000 every month (delivered upon billing) and Member-only Shark Cards with 15% bonus GTA$.

PC SUPPORT

Support for the previous version of GTAV will continue, allowing anyone whose hardware does not currently meet the minimum requirements of the new upgrade to keep playing. This also ensures that support for FiveM will continue uninterrupted while we work to extend support for it on the upgraded version.

Please note that to maintain this support, the original version of GTA Online on PC will be a separate instance, and players who remain on that version will not be able to play in sessions together with those on the upgraded version. PC Players who want to play with each other will need to ensure they’re playing the same version of the game. Both versions will be available to everyone who upgrades — and first-time purchasers will get access to both versions as well.

AND MORE...

Stay tuned for more information on the Rockstar Newswire, including details on the latest new update for GTA Online coming next month featuring some sky-high illicit revenue opportunities from an old contact; Oscar Guzman.
