i know its probably nothing and the game gonna look great but this question is very intriguing to me...

 

so, can someone please tweet a question to one of the gaming sites that covered the game and ask them about the gameplay graphics compared to the trailers?

 

thanks.

Why ask them when they already said that it doesnt look as good?

Even if you tweet them or send a message in a youtube comment, they won't respond. I was watching CVG's Franklink video yesterday and i thought f*ck it..let's ask them about diffferent camera points when on foot. Of course...no answer.

IGN said that the game-play graphics weren't amazing, they said it looked like a slightly better GTAIV

you see this was one of the parts that confused me most... compering to what? GTA IV on the PC or consoles?

well so far from the trailers and screenshots it looks amazing to me, especially when considering the fact that this game runs on a 7 years old hardware. And this is also the reason why this is so curious and confusing to me, the only reason i can think about for them to say such a thing is because maybe we didn't see the same thing?

 

for now they the only one's that can separate the facts from the fancy...

Unfortunately, the graphics aren't going to look a whole lot better than RDR. We're still going to get aliasing issues and low quality textures as well as potential rendering errors due to the expansive nature of the game and how old these consoles are. It'll be fine, though, I trust they know what they're doing.

Once again, Knife said it the best.

 

There is only so much that they can embelish in screens and trailers.

 

I think IGN is once again off there asses. They must forget how ugly GTA IV looks now-a-days. CVG said the game looks beautiful.

 

If I were you I would not think about the graphics. You are going to buy the game either way. Just think about the "things to do" in the game. After all, thats why we love GTA.

What happened to the mention that they were playing on 60-inch televisions during the previews? And how that would show all the graphical flaws?

IGN America said the graphics looked dated while IGN AU said the graphics were amazing.

 

It's probably a happy medium. I certainly don't think the graphics will be bad but it's also unrealistic to expect next-gen quality from these clunker consoles. Rockstar will do the best with what they have and will push the hardware as far as it can go. Needless to say, when the game comes out I doubt there will be very many people harping on the graphics. It will be fantastic either way.

Exactly man. IGN USA has become a very f*cked up site through the years. They have messed up bigtime with simple things about older GTA games. Those asses actually said you couldn't swim in GTA:SA and during their live shows before the GTA V updates happened, they messed up even more.

 

If they actually said this stuff about GTA V only looking slightly better than GTA IV, we can already tell they are either full of sh*t, it's simply someone who hates GTA or he hasn't played GTA IV in a long ass time. In character models alone the game is a huge step up, and that stuff can't be made pretty with photoshop or whatsoever. The character models are just that, a huge huge improvement over GTA IV. hell...RDR, LA Noire and MP3 were a HUGE improvement over GTA IV. But going by IGN USA's logic, the character models are similar to GTA IV....oh man they are full of sh*t.

It seems to me IGN USA are just salty that CVG seems to be getting all the love this time around. I wouldn't believe a word they say. Most previews have said the game looks great and from what we have seen via screens and trailers it's safe to assume any nitpicking IGN make is nothing to get hot and bothered about. If the game looks like Red Red Redemption or better I'll be happy as that game is beautiful.

Has any GTA game ever had top-of-the-line graphics at the time of release? I can't think of a single one. These games have never been about amazing graphics, the games look and feel great regardless. I know people criticize GTAIV for its aged look, but honestly I still play it to this day (in fact I have it paused on my TV right now) and I still love how it looks despite the frame-rate issues or whatever.

 

In fact, if there was more of a focus on graphics we would naturally get less of a focus on gameplay. Please stop feeding the media trolls at IGN, you're just giving them the attention they want. If there's anyone you should trust the most on GTAV it's the folks at CVG because they know their stuff and they don't bullsh*t you.

 

Everyone please stop whining, this game will be great, and we'll be obsessing over it for years just like we did with the previous games. Trust in Rockstar.

If it's on par with RDR i'll be incredibly impressed and happy, better would be.....no words for it man, no words!!!!

 

I'm playing RDR again now and the difference between the characters models in IV and RDR is crazy. The faces alone are so much more detailed and realistic in RDR. There's absolutely zero logic what IGN says here, zero logic that GTA V would look like a slightly better looking GTA IV, ridiculous bullsh*t. If they honestly said that.....OMFG. If they had said that the resolution was a little lower or that it doesn't look as crisp as the trailer, that is something i can believe. But a slightly better looking GTA IV? Wow. I suggest they compare some GTA IV shots or trailers and look at the character models alone. They are beyond crazy.

Hold on...it was Greg Miller saying that sh*t?
