Do you think they fixed the car you're in spawning everywhere?

I think someone explained this somewhere in another thread. I think it has been fixed. Not 100% sure on that though.

Why does this happen exactly? I remember seeing an explantion before. surely it is fixable, it sounds like something that should be simple programming

Eh so what? If a rare car shows up it gives me the opportunity to jack a few and keep them for my safehouses. :lol:

I thought it was because there's just not enough memory on the console hardware...

So no, i don't think it will be completely fixed.

That's correct, to spawn a different car for every single ped is just a waste of memory and resources. Loading the model you have makes the game run smoother, we can't know for sure if they fixed it until we play it, but since it's still on current gen i would say no.

There's nothing to "fix". That implies that it's not supposed to happen, but it is completely intentional behavior. Have they changed it? Who knows...

It's been in every GTA i would guess not. That was mostly annoying with the Sultan RS

 

1000000+ i agreee omg... spend the entire game looking for one, then you get one and its at every corner of the f*cking intersection -____-

I think this happens because this way it doesn't have to load multiple assets in order to create a traffic, so it saves memory by re-using 2-3 cars over and over at every moment. I think this is mostly a hardware problem than a "bug".

a programming decision. Really immersion breaking, but still, a quantity over quality/variety decision. Doubt it's changed this time, but another plesant surprise would be nice.

Probably not, due to memory limitations. Oh well, I wouldn't really mind because it would bring back memories of playing GTA IV for the first time. :p

From the Jock Cranley ad, looks like the problem's still here, one thing I do hope for is that they've fixed the car cache so that the car selction changes more dynimatically that it did in IV.

It's a memory issue. As others have already stated it's not something that that is supposed to be fixed, cloned vehicles are intended because it would be too expensive memory wise to render a variety of other vehicles. The Xbox/sony architecture has not changed for half a decade so memory limits will be the same. This is the problem with consoles. The hardware simply doesn't advance as fast.

Theoretically, if GTAV came to next gen do you think they would be able to solve this? or do you think there would still not be enough RAM. I know theres 8GB RAM on PS4, how much is there on PS3?

 

And those questions are directed at whoever reads them

@SuperDuper Either 256MB or 512MB, I belive.

Console limitations. There will be repeating cars on the current console versions but if it comes out for PC or next gen, it will be "fixed".
