Damn, too many bugs!

[Watinho]

All right, now more and more people are getting the game early.

I'm asking...WHERE IS THE GODDAMN LEAK??!!

 

(sorry CharmingCharlie)

[Red_153D]

What's the point of playing this without being able to see the Euphoria engine (or at least one of its main features) in action?

Glad I haven't ordered this game yet.

[Rockstar1]

1900 or less series cards:

Cars do not show damage.

 

 

What a crock of ****.

 

My PS3 shows car damage but my X1900 doesn't ?

 

If that's not fixed immediately, that is a deal breaker. I won't buy the PC version.

[Cam]

Those graphics bugs are bound to be fixed. Rockstar always patched their PC games in the past. I wouldn't worry too much.

"Please note that registration into either is not mandatory to play the single player campaign"

 

for all u people complaining about registration

happy now

Well this proves what I was saying yesterday, and all of the strays where calling me a troll about..

and the dude with the video saying he couldn't play.

 

was fos

You still cannot start the game before the date. All it is saying is that you do not have to register on GFWL to play the single player. You still have Bioshock type drm to get through. That guy was not full of crap, there are other people popping up on forums showing pictures of the game and what not. Take a peek around.

For the first time ever, you can now select your own favorite songs to play through

the in-game radio station Independence FM.

 

 

?? The custom radio is the same as GTA SA and Vice City .... same options same settings, same same same ... LOL.

ATI:

General:

A slightly visible diagonal line appears across the screen.

 

 

Do you think this is the case with all ATI cards ?

 

 

Surely they wont release it, if a diagonal line is across the screen on top end ATI cards.

For the first time in a GTA IV game, not in the GTA franchise.

Without splitting hairs, its still not the "the first time ever" ... is it ... for PC and this is for PC.

Have you seen a previous version of GTA IV with a custom radio ?

That's all they mean. AFAIK, the console versions didn't have one.

[noid449]

maybe you can select which tracks to play in game , yes add your custom files to folder but actually choose the order or play same one again if not its just the same LOl :|

Why the older card do not show damage? that sucks? i thought the processor is making the damage and the videocard is only showing it!

[TruXter]

 

-windowed:  Force windowed mode

 

Thank GOD for that, I was really worrying there wouldn't be a windowed mode. I like to play games on my PC sometimes with the ability to see what is going on elsewhere ie irc that kind of thing. So I was hoping against hope that GTA 4 would support windowed mode.

very good eye.

that could be quite useful.

 

I want it .

 

and I want it now.

I am not sure but I have a good guess.

Maybe the damage is running on architecture that the older cards do not support.

 

let's hope for the sake of those who can not upgrade cards.

you at least see the smoke and fire so you know when to get the

heck outa the car!!

lol

Surely they wont release it, if a diagonal line is across the screen on top end ATI cards.

Ahahah! Why haven't you bought a nVidia card uh? You silly ATI users.

Maybe that's the point. Damages are being processed by the CPU, but due to the Video Card being old, they just can't be displayed?

Notice how it says "Coop 2-4 players" (in french). This game doesn't support co-op AFIK.

 

EDIT: It seem that they count the Bomb Da Base II, Hangmans NOOSE as co-op.

I wonder how many missions co-op.

 

or if coop means something else in french =-\

 

would be nice to be able to co-op all through entire missions..

and occasional do the missions alone.

 

like when your buddie's at work and stuff.

[pylb_etajv]

Aren't there coop multiplayer modes in the console versions ?

 

-edit- according to http://www.gta4.net/multiplayer/, there are 3 coop modes.

Ye, finally windowed mode.

[noid449]

id say windowed mode would help lower setting pc run the game ?

Vasaline eyes

STOP!

I hope my video card isn't so blurry

O h heck yeah, around the corner

beautimous

[CharmingCharlie]

I thought I was the only one that card about windowed mode Nice to see that some other users use it as well. It was always one of my bugbears about GTA SA (thankfully there was a mod to get it running in a window).

 

I don't know if it improves the performance of the game much, I would have thought it actually makes it a bit worse, I just use windowed mode because I like to watch other sh*t on my desktop during the day.

I use it in linux/wine

so I can do other stuff like chat and lurk forums.

plus it helped with the lag issue in wine to have

a lower res image in a small window like that.

didn't help a whole lot but it helped.

 

 

left me with 3/4 of my desktop still usable.

 

sometimes wine would be buggy though when I did it.

like taking the mouse out of game area.

Sure someone can answer. ask the people who already have the game.. and have disassembled (reverse engineered) the game engine.

 

 

no no one can answer it yet.

 

three days man and we have it.

That's all they mean. AFAIK, the console versions didn't have one.

 

I know I know Im just saying that its like having a ford car from 2 years ago, and getting a new one and it states in the paperwork, for the first time ever in this model, a radio installed!! Umm yeh like all the other models.

 

I pointed it out because its a bit stupid and misleading if you from the PC platform becuase it reads like there really is something new about it even on PC, like some extra super features, whereas its the same, which im not complaining about but it is some strange logic to put in the read me.

 

 

[fuckin playa]

I have only one simple and good issue(it's not that bad issue)I will have NVidia 9800 GT so my only problem is tree leaves but that's OK
