Patch 6 Wish List

[hn333]

This topic is not needed . Look, in wishes for patch 5 was lots of stuff , and in patch nothing from those requests

I really doubt you'll get anything from your wacky list in the next patch also.

[Rob.Zombie]

Ok, then look at valve. They always gives you weeked sale (50% off and things like that), they release map packs for L4D for FREE. Only greedy R* can't release something for free. Some new cars? Big deal, we modders showed R* and actually the world how easy to do it. You can make a brand new car in a week, and it takes a week to make a comlete campaign for L4D. Oh and don't tell me, Xbox users would start whinning. Screw them, valve released map pack for Xbox for money, and released map pack for PC for free. Anyway it might not be R*, but Microsoft...

I didn't ask for TBoGT or TLaD, only the vehicles and clothes. That would mean future PC TLaD owners can play with normal GTA IV players, because they have the same car.

And I actually I mentioned this as a "last option" for R*. Since they really don't give a sh*t about PC users, this is the only way they could regain my trust.

[Juggernaut470]

I somtimes hate these thread, cause people put nearly impossible things to happen in a patch. Can we have a serious decussion here? I think they need to fix the shadows/popups/ grainy models in the distants.

[Murcchachosa]

I want those anal retards to get rid of Social Club and GFWL crap.

I barely could enjoy play the game with all the bloatware you need to

play just one game.

And they add only-SP modding ability.

Only SP, not cheat-ass MP.

And add the moon back in the game damnit!

And fix the Sniper bug when the peds disapear at 10 ft.

Excuse me.

 

I dont like R* since they back off from DLC's and developing time

for PC plus paid my MS Hounds.

[David.]

Change the R* idea of a patch :"Fix something,mess up something else."

[Murcchachosa]

Change the R* idea of a patch :"Fix something,mess up something else."

The always mess up when fixed.

So the truth becomes true, there are really monkeys at R* Studio

[T-ru]

OK , i cheked all files in game the new patch changed only those files :common/data/cdimages -script.img , script_network.img.and common/shaders

So i think to copy somewhere those files then i'll unninstal the game and update only to patch 1.0.4.0 and i'll replace those files: common/data/cdimages-script.img , script_network.img.and common/shaders with the files from 1.0.4.0 version , about control i don' know but i'll use again commandline with -memrestrict and some mod's files

 

i'm sorry if this is not a toppic about that

 

and camon R* fix this great game to be the great game

The new patch modified much more game files, not only those. The best way to "unninstall" this patch is to install the previous one (the true 1.0.0.4). At least I've been doing that everytime I want to play the game with an older patch.

Climbing because its now common in open world games eg. Assassins Creed, The Sabatour

 

No, dont.

 

As Assassins Crude 2 and the Sabatour will probably suck ass

 

I rented Assassins Crude 1 on PS3, only played for about 20mins since the story was f*cking retarded. futuristic science lab? where is the aliens, space ships and laser rifles?lol

 

and as for Sabatour, its going to be a climb up a building and blow up 1500 towers game. wow i cant wait!(sarcasm)

[Ruscris2]

I hate that in GTA IV PC you cannot Dodge ! Why ?

[wielku]

I want to get shadows that like before patch which add option to disable shadows

since before that patch was nice on low detail

 

[Spider-Vice]

I'd like them to fix the stuttering, shadows, etc problems. This patch was rubbish, 4 months for... SKU changes and MP changes? O.o

[..GhosT]

Damn why you have to make everytime wishlists that R* makes new patches.. its so pissing me off -.- no game has over 5 patches, gta iv has -.-

[norbi1988]

Hmm, there's another problem with shadows under the motobike wheels, it's colors depends on the street lights like lanterns (yellow) and signalling (green and red)

 

 

EDIT: The same problem is with the cars.

3) Expansion Packs

 

We can't wait to play "The Lost and Damned" and "The Ballad of Gay Tony" on the PC.

 

5) Bugs and Missing Features

 

 

Many people report major problems with some missions due to unfixed bugs. Some of those may force you to restart the whole game. We have whole threads about each of those issues but I'm afraid they don't offer anything besides "keep trying."

 

Helicopter climbing in "Out of Commission" and "A Revenger's Tragedy." Completing these missions is close to impossible... it's actually a matter of luck.

 

 

10) Multiplayer Modding

 

Only ranked matches should be protected and in custom matches the host should be allowed to enable/disable mods.

 

I agree with most of your points and there are some very nice ideas for the next chapter of our beloved franchise.

Okay in the DLC thread you posted this ridiculous comment,

"The Ballad of Gay Tony wins by a huge margin. I actually find the fact that it has "gay" in the title a little ironic, since the only thing gay here is the f*cking bikers, who think they're real cool and so on. The only instance where you see a f*cking penis on your screen is... yes, The Lost and Damned. It's such a boring, moronic piece-a-s*hit that no wonder it was released first. I'm sure R* didn't want people to remember GTA IV like this."

 

I don't sense that much enthusiasm for TLaD in that comment. Contradict much?

The bug in 'Out of Commision', was really annoying, but I got through the mission by reconfigurating my jump key, but bugs that hamper progression is deeply unacceptable. I certainly hope they fix them soon.

For me the shortcomings in multiplayer is a very urgent matter. I sure hope that they will implement more hosting options, I would like my online sessions to be cheater-free.

 

Thank you for starting this thread. It has a lot of valid points.

[Jur1zz]

Damn why you have to make everytime wishlists that R* makes new patches.. its so pissing me off -.- no game has over 5 patches, gta iv has -.-

This game has many patches link

 

 

2.0.22.11.22.12.02.31.02.34.02.402.432.64.0.02.65.1.0

 

[David.]

 

No, dont.

(Sorry if i go off topic)

I don't think a game like Assassin's Creed should be judged in 20 minutes.Yes,the

gameplay does get repetitive,but the story line was not so bad.From what you just said,I can say that you only so the cutscene in the beginning.

 

Climbing because its now common in open world games eg. Assassins Creed, The Sabatour

 

As for this,I don't think a patch can make climbing possible.

[norbi1988]

Another bug with shadows and lighting; now under police car with sirene

 

[Extortionate]

OK I will be the one to make the first SERIOUS suggestion, it seems Rockstar are still struggling with those shadows. Naturally everyone knows that the shadows are now correct when Niko is riding a bike but ...... it seems they have f*cked up the car shadows at night :-

 

 

As you can see the driver now casts a shadow but the car doesn't. This only seems to happen at night.

I cannot reproduce this with the same car and at night.

 

Make sure these shadow issues are not driver bugs. NVIDIA is known not to draw shadows or has issues with them for various reasons.

 

Please everyone. Don't make assumptions about rendering errors in that they're the game's fault. Get someone to reproduce them across driver versions and GPU's.

[Hydro_PT]

This wish list is pretty pathetic IMO. You basically ask things that the original game (360, PS3) doesn't have, so why should we get it on the PC? That is called extras, not fixes. A patch fixes problems in the game, it doesn't add extra content. That's for DLCs.

 

1. SecuROM released some time ago an official no-dvd exe. I think it still exists. If not, I can understand why an official crack isn't available. Oh and what's up with having to put the DVD on? To be honest, my GTA IV DVD has been inside my drive for months now. Since I bought the game, I rarely take the DVD out. It's there all days, and I have yet to find scratches.

 

2. You can get AA through ENB Series, can't you? Besides, most people have trouble running the game as it is, now imagine if R* adds AA. If they didn't put AA before the game was released, I really doubt they do it now. It's a feature they decided not to implement. Period. The same for DX 10.

 

3. What has this to do with patches? Both TLAD and TBOGT will come as DLCs, not patches.

 

4. Shadows are much better now, I don't see why you keep complaining about them being grainy. My shadows are fine at HIGH settings. Of course that if you play at LOW settings, shadows suck.

 

5. I agree with everything here, and I think that the "missing drivers" is the most awful. It's been a year and no fix for that. The same for 7, 8 and 9, even though the game's performance has increased a lot with all these patches.

 

10. Multiplayer modding? No f*cking way! This will allow even more cheaters and hackers to appear. If you want to play online with a modded game, set your own free mode and invite your friends. Let everyone else play freely, in ranked matches, player matches or free mode. Yes, free mode without cheats can still be fun.

 

 

As for wish list 2, it's ridiculous, none of that will be done, because patches fix a game, they don't add new content like "buildings with interiors", "seasons", "destructible environment" and other stuff. I don't understand why people want things that were never meant to be for this game. That's a good wish list for the next GTA, not for GTA IV.

[Jimbatron]

Some game play bugs I have noticed and have been discussed in previous threads:

 

1) Stevie stops sending text messages for where the next car is even though you haven't found them all yet.

 

2) Suddendly all your friend say they are unable to help with their special abilities every time you call them, even though your like stat is high enough.

 

3) In cops and crooks one all for one it is impossible to join a session in progress, you always get disconnected.

 

A suggestion to enhance multiplayer:

 

I'm not sure if it is feasible to patch this, but allow the rocket launcher and sniper rifle to be used by helicopter passengers. Perhaps this could also be extended to allow heavier weapons to be used by passengers in the backs of vans / open top cars (ever seen the TVR chase in Swordfish?)

 

Personally I think this would make vehicles more viable in a team death match - currently I stay on foot most of the time. It would also encourage team work as you need two people to get in the same vehicle to benefit.

 

Out of the ones you've already listed the flashing textures is the one I suffer from the most - especially approaching the toll booth above charge island. Does anyone know what the cause of this is? I thought initially it might be limitations of my system, but I've got vram resource to spare and lowering my settings doesn't reduce it. Is it hardware specific, or is it just bugs in the coding that everyone suffers from?

He is simply suggesting a reasonable solution: an option to enable/disable modding, meaning that the host decides whether or not mods should be allowed. I find this to be a perfect compromise. I don't want cheaters near my online sessions!

 

And the second wishlist - while it doesn't belong here - it is actually a list of suggestion for the next game. Please read the post.

Another bug with shadows and lighting; now under police car with sirene

 

Remove ENB Series. That's causing those strange lights. Same for Norbi1988...

[CharmingCharlie]

 

Make sure these shadow issues are not driver bugs. NVIDIA is known not to draw shadows or has issues with them for various reasons.

Yeahhhhhh must be a driver issue I mean before this patch I didn't have this problem and I was using the same driver then. Now after the patch I am having this problem, the only thing that has changed is the patch so naturally it just MUST be a driver issue . That is before we even take into account Rockstar have been unable to get these shadows working right from day 1, yeah lets ignore that and just blame the GPU driver shall we.

 

I take it you are of the view the missing moon and pathetic driver spawn distance is a driver issue too is it ?

 

 

Please everyone. Don't make assumptions about rendering errors in that they're the game's fault. Get someone to reproduce them across driver versions and GPU's.

Hm as I have said "worked before patch, doesn't after patch" my my I wonder what it could be eh ?. This shadow problem has been reported by SEVERAL people just because you don't get it means you probably need to go to specsavers. How about posting a screen shot clearly showing that you don't have the problem eh ?

 

As for others will you shut up moaning about the damn topic, jesus you don't like the topic then don't participate in it. This is a wishlist it will have realistic and unrealistic wishes in it that is just human nature stop being so damn anal about someone wanting "outlandish" things.

Calm down man. Why would I lie about not having the issue? It's a know fact that some NVIDIA drivers don't render shadows and such to gain performance.

 

All I'm saying is this is not the way to reproduce stuff, randomly saying shadows go missing and I'm not calling anyone a liar either.Did you know the patch can can hit a driver bug?
