Least yours was shipped... mines awaiting dispatch.... So much for prime

I will be surprised if mine comes later today. Postman doesn't usually ever deliver anything past 1pm.

And there I was last night thinking that I was taking the sensible route in not buying and downloading it digitally over night. Trouble is, even if I decide to download it today it won't be ready until tomorrow - so I now I may as well wait for the retail copy lol. :-/

Regarding the benchmark, PCGamer says here: http://www.pcgamer.com/gta-5-pc-fix-list/

It is best to leave it alone for now, as well as a list of other fixes.

Well story mode is fine

But I crash to desktop when going online

after searching noticed this appearing under App data

High resolution shadows seems to be a killer!

Doesn't tell you what to do if your ssd is full and can't unpack though

PC gamer employees must be low iq cos I figured it out in minutes ( on last page for anyone who needs to know)

Everyones praising Rockstar for a bang on release. They've done well, but with the bloody time it's taken to get here, should we have expected anything less?

Yep agree somewhat...

However if they released it and it was borked, we would all have been moaning that it was rubbish for years. LOL

Best things come to those who wait...

Love driving this thing around:

I'm trying to log in to play the game and it says can't connect to rockstar social club. Any one else getting this

check your firewall ain't blocking the game.

I had a pop up from windows asking if I should let the game contact the internetz but had to alt tab to see if since the game didn;t minimize when the window would have appeared

Got the DVD version arrived, double pack with 7 disks

Actually, it seems to be the 'extended distance scaling', not the high resolution shadows option that makes the biggest difference to me.

Well British Gas brought me my copy so I'm saving £40, so takes the sting out of it a little

Very jealous of everyone playing though, game looks amazing!

Can't imagine what it will look like on a 65" 4k tv maxed out 60fps :eek:

JakePNEFC · 14 Apr 2015 at 13:27

Haven't read past few pages but I read on reddit that you can delete a folder while unpacking which will free loads of space

Any one here have a 290 and are running 1440p comfortably?

No problem, all settings on highest.

Drake5 · 14 Apr 2015 at 13:32

This game is broken - It's downloading the full 60gb again even though all the files are there

bakes0310 · 14 Apr 2015 at 13:34

Played it for an hourish, got all the settings on max that's not greyed out (txaa) and it plays it beautifully. I tried the benchmark but it doesn't work. But its very smooth, the titan blacks sli still got some life in them.
Very nice looking game, cant wait to get stuck into later on.

Is anyone using AMD and have the stupid Gaming Evolved app? GTAV isnt showing up for me in the app, so I cant use it's optimisation settings. I downloaded the latest drivers last night when they announced them.

That gaming evolved aka Raptr software gave me a BSOD. I uninstalled it. I read it's not really good.
