sintrum Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Any one else lived in time square or actully live there?Or visited there? ITS A GHOST TOWN Time square is absolute sh*t compared to the real thing I think they should update this and add at least 70% of the population in times square,and i bet other peaple would love that update Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/359621-disapointed-by-population/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Mozzarelli 80 Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 You just have to remember that it may not be techinically feasible to have that many peds on screen at once. the processors and stuff have to work really hard to maintain the fluidity of the experience. I actually think the game is quite well populated. There are loads of cars around times square and other busy areas, when compared with most games. Also the on foot pedestrians are quite dense in some areas.

sintrum Posted June 28, 2008 Author Share Posted June 28, 2008 But im shure the ps3 could handle those things right? 360 will have extra dlc so why couldent the ps3 have at least extra population for extra realisticasum lol Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/359621-disapointed-by-population/#findComment-1058300289 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Mozzarelli 80 Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 I don't know if the ps3 could handle it or not, but again releasing two different versions of the game was probably not feasible either.

sintrum Posted June 28, 2008 Author Share Posted June 28, 2008 Lol damn 360 that cant keep up with technologie When you think about it,360 might be oudated? Since next gen console gaming started in 2007 And 360 in 2005 Guess microsoft has to think of a new console soon enough Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/359621-disapointed-by-population/#findComment-1058300304 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Mozzarelli 80 Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 I don't really know to be honest. I would guess that the 360 still has a lot more potential if developers care to unlock it, so to speak. i mean look how long it took for developers to begin maximising the potential of the PS2. not until games like San Andreas came out.

Tony Mozzarelli 80 Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Not entirely sure about the storage capacities, but as far as i know there was still space on the GTAIV disc. i think the population issue is really another matter, such as the processor, or the amount of RAM. Although this is speculation on my part as i don't really know what i'm talking about Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/359621-disapointed-by-population/#findComment-1058300330 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knife Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 If the consoles could handle more peds, there would be more peds. They will always push the system to it's limit, technology increases through allowing for better graphics etc over time, but they have done the best they can at this time. If everyone had supercomputers that fill rooms, Liberty would be packed with peds.

Tony Mozzarelli 80 Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 I shouldn't imagine it will die. just maintain it's focus on a different target audience. PC technology gets better all the time and can constantly be upgraded, whereas if you buy a console, that's it until the next gen' comes out. Also you have to consider the huge profits to be made from MMO games such as World of Warcraft, these pull in massive audiences and i doubt they will die anytime soon Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/359621-disapointed-by-population/#findComment-1058300396 Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharmingCharlie Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 I wasn't specifically singling you out Tony Mozzaralli 80 you can clearly see this sintrum is a PS3 fanboy so you expect rubbish like "pc is dying" and "360 holding PS3 back" from him. I find it is best not to entertain such rubbish. I mean the guy actually thinks consoles have better technology than the PC, you just can't reason with someone like that.

computergeek Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Author - Rosseh1 Well if IO Interactive managed to pull of a level like this on a game which ran on everything from the PlayStation 2 to the PC, Xbox and Xbox 360 way back in may of 06, i'm having a bit of a hard time swallowing the fact that the gaming platforms are entirely to blame. I think the fundamental mistake was R*'s decision to implement euphoria. Sure, you end up with a game with perhaps some of the most realistic animations on the market but consequently all those unique animations which are generated on the fly catch up to you. They simply take up too many hardware resources for the game to function at 'playable' speeds if a larger population is implemented. In effect, R* shot itself in its own foot with euphoria, gaining on realistic animations but losing out on population density. Whatever the case, you decide. I'm merely here to offer a different perspective... Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/359621-disapointed-by-population/#findComment-1058300517 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don Garcia aka NjNakedSnake Posted June 28, 2008 Share Posted June 28, 2008 Ya, it completely blows how deserted Star Junction is. I mean, that was supposed to be such an incredible location in IV, yet it's not amazing in the least. If Times Square was that abandoned in real life, I'd think there was a terrorist attack happening and run for it...
