19% of the people whining on this forum are just troll's, if they were actual gamers they would make helpfull posts to try and solve their problems, not act like some 9 year old spoiled brat !

 

 

If having problems with the game isn't enough for me, all I see is gay ramblings R* crap port, blah blah, I bet one of you is Hilary Clinton, isn't it ?

19% of the game making studios in this world don't know jacks**t about programming,or porting,if they would,a half-assed port like Grand Theft Auto IV would never be born.

 

19% of the gaming industry is R*.If the game would be equal to it's hype, all this whining would never have existed.

If the game would run smooth it would be a awesome game...

 

But with stutters/crashes/slow downs/GFX glitches the game needs a overhaul...

No GFX options ingame at all, Rockstar saying the PC players are to "retarded" for all the options, thats what Rockstar thinks, so they remove them... Great, its a PC not a console... Consoles dont need GFX options, but the PC does...

 

AFTER people started complaining big time, Rockstar said the PC version is "next gen" and doesnt run good on the PCs now adays... IF so, then ALL the "next gen" GFX and so on that is not put in GTA IV, so conclusion is they are not holding up their end of the bargain...

 

Take Two losing shares is not good but on the other hand maybe they will learn this :

DONT screw with the players if you cant step up...

Dear Rockstar Assholes,

 

Like we all expected when we pirated/bought this crap, this crap cant run on the

most powerfull Quadcores and graphicard cards.

So the sales is getting poor and retarded.

There is some things to decrease the sales.

Fix these memory leak, fix these graphics issues, fix these textures missing,

fix these crashes (even anything and anything is installed that GTA4 requires.)

Add AA, fix these dithered Microsoft Paint shadows.

If you asshats fix all these issues/troubles, you can swim in your hard earned money.

And dont be corrupt to the GameSpot with their review:

 

 

I runs perfectley on 3-years-old-machines!

 

And dont lie with "1 procent of all gamers have this troubles"

 

Retarded regards

GTA_XP

This thread started well but now its the same retardness as always.

 

You are satisfied that the game isnt selling very well on the PC but you still want R* to fix the problems rolleyes.gif .

You bitch and moan at R* for doing a bad port but you still want them to make it better rolleyes.gif .

You guys even go as far as advocating piracy but yeah R* still needs to fix the game... why? Maybe because the game is that good?

 

Why dont you just return the game and f*ck off? You're not helping anyone by sharing your misery.

 

As for the PC and console sales my opinion is that the market is investing on the PC again and R* needs to jump in the boat too.

Why? Because in case you havent noticed the PS3 failed, its a shadow of the PS2, where SA sold more copies alone than IV on the PS3, xbox 360 and PC combined.

 

R* need to maximise sales on all 3 platforms to generate the maximum revenue possible.

This really makes me happy. They f*ck up the game for us PC gamers (who have been taking their sh*t for a long time), and they expect good sales? Yeah right. Serves you f*cking right Cockstar.

 

The money seems to have got to Cockstar's head after the huge success of SA, they ARE the next EA smile.gif.

 

Congratulations!

Please keep us updated on what sort of official reply you get (hopefully this thread lives long enough for you to post it in here).

 

Here's my theory of what will happen from my many dealings (and attempts to deal with) Rockstar:

 

As soon as someone who is in a position to give a response reads you email, they'll go into sulk mode, and you'll never hear from them (or the entire company) again on the email address that you used.

Don't bet on it. UK support still hasn't got back to me after I sent them the dxdiag file they requested last friday in order to sort out my issues with Bully.

Awesome. Now that they know no one plays the PC version, they'll stop worrying about it's problems...

Probably they should've not released the PC version IMO...

Yeah, the game IS that good. That's why the quality of the port is such a disappointment. I agree that RE4 etc are not in the same league as far as PC user's enthusiasm is concerned.

 

It is gratifying for us to look at the words "poor sales" and imagine that rockstar are only getting their due for a PC product that works hard at every turn to undermine our excitement with graphical, sound, control and performance issues. Hell, I spent 8 hours knee-deep in regedit before SecuROM would let me play the damn thing at all.

 

But most prospective buyers (such as myself) only find out about this stuff after they've payed their money and been slapped in the face with it. And, like me, most are probably too GTA-hungry to actually take it back.

 

I think the main reason is, it's hard for an 8-month-old PC port to make a huge impression in the sales charts. And I think R* knows this, because the game has basically slunk into stores and quietly insinuated itself onto the shelf with absolutely no fanfare whatsoever. Since anyone with a PS3 or X360 who likes GTA already owns it, it's only really the hard core who they're pitching to.

 

What these problems are really hurting are the PC sales of the next one.

Those who stole this game play the worst version cause they have bugs with gameplay, bugs because of cracks, no multiplayer, no support, no movies upload to SC, no possible DLC.

And Live, Social Club and SecuROM aren't big problems for those who bought the game.

bugs with gameplay, bugs because of cracks

 

Hmm really?

 

no multiplayer

 

Yeh, with all of the 10 people online at a time

 

no support, no movies upload to SC

 

Who cares?

 

no possible DLC

 

Hahahahaha, want to bet on that?
