Same cars spawning all the time

[Lethal Vaccine]

 

 

Lol, GTA III (one save file), Vice City (one save file), San Andreas (one save file), GTA IV (one save file), GTA V (one save file)

 

 

Ha! Very good but still risky. You see for yourself folks who come on here saying events/missions aren't spawning, and when they are advised to load a previous save, they admit they don't have one.

 

There are faults in the game and that reason alone is enough to ensure a selection of saves are available as back-up.

 

 

I agree. It's just that I am kinda OCD and don't like to have multiple saves. It's not complicated. It's just an OCD/pet-peve type of thing. With ALL my games I own (not just GTA) I keep ONE save. I never considered the risk, as I not one time had a problem to date with anything.

 

I must of been lucky. But then again, I 100% this game way back in October. Seemed a lot of problems occured ONCE I COMPLETED the game. So I don't have any of those event problems, etc, cuz they are all done, etc. I am only interested at this point in storing/modding vehicles and DLC vehicles we get. As there is nothing left in GTA V for me to do besides 5 star police chases and having fun with my vehicles I own and cruising the map, and possibly role playing in my four owned police vehicles (FIB Buffalo, Police Buffalo, Police Riot, and Unmarked Cruiser).

 

As you know, as well, I also use the save editor, and I personally don't experience any problems. But I always do one small change at a time, I don't go clicking 900 things. That is how you get a corrupt, f*cked up gamesave...

 

 

I'm still on my first save from when I first got the game back in October.

 

OMG really?! That is VERY risky!

 

You have 15 save slots...you really should use them because yes, corrupt save will compound any game performance issue.

 

I too have completed the game and the spawning issue happens sometimes, I can make it happen but I can also make it go away.

 

And if things do go bad, I can always reload a different save.

 

I do have a backup save, it's just not around the same completion I already have, I'll have to make a copy of the one I already have, but I doubt that'll fix the spawning issue. And anyways I've been playing GTA IV a little bit and probably will until they fix the issue, but I think GTA IV has the same issue too.

 

 

GTA IV does have the same kind of problem with taxi's mainly. I see 19 taxi's, but it eventually fixes itself, and that too I am on 100% completion with 0 cheat codes used. GTA III, VC, SA are similar, too. It's just how Rockstar codes this game, but imo, it's still the WORST in V.

 

 

To me its either sh*tloads of Grangers and Mesas or then BeeJay XL's and Ballers.. Sometimes a Dubsta or Radius may join the pack. On the other hand, SUV's like Seminole I've only seen once in the very beginning of the game.. Gresley is also a very rare find. In muscle cars, Buccaneer seems to be pretty much the only one that spawns, I've only once seen a Vigero and never a Sabre Turbo.. Other vehicle classes seem to spawn cars pretty variably, although I've never seen a Zion or Fusilade or Oracle 2 in the traffic.

 

I don't get your problem. But I DO GET the Muscle Car Class spawn problem. I too, only see Buccaneers. I do see Vigeros and actually Phoenix. But I do NOT see any Dominators, Sabre Turbos, or Ruiners.

 

I do see Zions, but not Zion Cabrios. Fusilade has always been a pretty rare sports car. But I own it. Even owning it, I don't see them in traffic unless I drive my own Fusilade. Oracle 1 and 2 are very common in my game, even without owning them.

 

 

The problem is that those SUV's are always in the traffic, making many other cars almost never to spawn..

 

 

You're right. This is absolutely true. That is why other cars have a difficulty with spawning as they are being in place of those sh*tty SUV's. I hate the SUV's and Vans in this game, wouldn't think of owning or driving one of those slow box cars.

[piko]

After deleting the game data and installing again, I instantly found a Sabre Turbo for the first time ever! There's also Minivans which I have seen maybe once before. Only SUV's I can see are Rocoto and FQ2, no sign of Grangers or Ballers! So, I warmly recommend to reinstall the game data if same cars seem to spawn all the time, sure worked for me!

[buginafug]

Just saw six Asteropes in a row on Prosperity Street in Vespucci Canals online for the PS3. This must be a memory problem of some sort.

Ridiculous.

[buginafug]

I still have an insane variety of cars on the 360. The truth is that GTA V is too big for PS3's and 360's to handle.

I got variety, too. It doesn't bother me as much as is bothers TensaZangetsu and others. Even if they did "fix" this, it's not like SUV's will stop spawning all together or something. Plus, imo, there should be MORE SUV's than Super/Sports cars anyways. Think about it in real life. Do you see Ferrari's and Lambo's everywhere? No. All you see is sedans, coupes, and box cars + SUV's for the most part. If you're lucky a Corvette or two, lol...

 

With that said, in GTA V, I see too many Sports Cars and Super Cars. But I think it's because I OWN these vehicles. I said numerous times I own all 8 Super Cars and EVERY Sports Car minus the Futo and Penumbra. I think it has something to do with what you own, which also plays a role in what cars spawn. I see tons of Super, Sport, Sport Classics, and Coupes. But of course, I do see SUV's, Vans, Bus', etc as well...But why shouldn't I see them?

[Saintdestroyer]

I can confirm (because it happened the instant I got it) that once at 100% completion, this problem arises.

I've had 100% completion since October, and read my statement above...

It's not just me, my step brother has the same problem on PS3, mostly those Jeeps and Convertibles spawn on there and sometimes I see a few SUVs. So it's not just me.

[Lethal Vaccine]

Yeah, that is why I said: "It doesn't bother me as much as is bothers TensaZangetsu and others."

 

I won't deny that it's a problem for a lot of people, I am just stating it's not a problem for me in the slightest and I am also 100% completion, which isn't affected by this, either...

I sometimes get SUV-ville, but it usually dies down pretty fast.

[Lelouch The Zero]

I don't know I think something's wrong with our systems or something. At least that's what it seems like. Some people have it and some people don't. I'm thinking it has something to do with the latest title update. Even then I've heard it's been there even before the updates so I don't know. It's weird how it only happens to some people and not others.

Could be. I know I am one of the few who still have the old school backward compatible fatboy PS3 and my game is fine. Other than the fan sometimes going a bit faster and usually only for GTA V...

 

A lot of people have that PS3 Slim system and experience the problem, or they have Xbox360.

 

Considering that Xbox in fact needs two discs to install or whatever for GTA V kinda shows me that it bearly can handle it. Whereas PS3 only needs one disc. Idk, just my thoughts. Who knows.

 

All I know is I am satisfied with the car spawns, tbh...

As long as the game doesn't populate the game with hundreds of the same vehicle your driving - especially those that are rare - I'm fine. Thankfully it doesn't do this!

[piko]

I have noticed that in late game, some cars just stop completely appearing in the traffic. Some examples include Blista, Schwartzer, Surge and 9F. I never see them anymore in the game. They used to be quite common at the start, too.

My game is like that for the Schwartzer, but not the others. However, my game DOES NOT spawn Ruiner, Dominator, Gauntlet, among others...

[buginafug]

You're not going to see all the models in one session. That isn't how the game is set up, at least from what I've seen.

100% agree with this, as there is TOO many cars in GTA V. It's impossible to get them all to spawn in the same session, unless you'd play for like 6-10 hours in a row without turning it off. But also you can continue reloading the game over and over and over and over and it will change the spawns up, but usually only 5 cars or so will be shuffled into the game at a time.

[buginafug]

I usually have about eight to ten different cars per session on the 360. That's better than I'd expected.

[Lethal Vaccine]

^^^ Yeah, I get like 5-8 or so. Still not bad. Idk how others are having problems, lol

It's like I told you before. The old Xbox 360's from 2009 and before simply can't handle the game (I have a Jasper white arcade from that year). That's why the spawning is so bad, just a guess. I'm guessing that's why a few people including myself are having this problem, it's been stated when the game first came out that the game wouldn't run very well on older Xbox models. But I guess I'm just gonna have to live with it, as will anybody else that's having the problem. But then some people have the problem on the PS3 super slim as well, so i'm not sure.

I'll check that out tomorrow when I wake up as it's getting late for me about now and gonna sleep shortly.

 

I have a PS3 from 2008 that is backward compatible and fat and heavy as sh*t...My game runs fine. But by your logic, you'd think that mine would be giving me problems too, due to it being old, but it's not. So I am not sure what yours and other people's problems with the spawns are.

I honestly don't know at this point, maybe our Xbox's or PS3s are going bad (the ones having the problem) because there is only a handful of people who have the problem and that's like less than 1 percent.

[Lethal Vaccine]

It's possible. But I honestly think it's the game in general cuz at a time I had problems with spawns, too. 1.07 ruined the game for me, but 1.08 fixed it for me. Before 1.07 some cars NEVER spawned, after 1.07 some cars started to spawn. I reckon it's patches. They f*ck sh*t up with them all the time...

[Lelouch The Zero]

True, true. If it were the console, I would have the problem in GTA IV right now which I don't. It's the game or the patch one or the other. It probably doesn't happen to everybody because maybe some of them don't have internet or either they never downloaded any patches. I think it depends on how much you've played the game too, maybe the longer I play the more variety of cars I'll see. I have 91% game completion and maybe almost 200 hours of gameplay. Perhaps I should beat the game 100% and see if the problem goes away, which I highly doubt. I'm hoping R* just get off their asses and fix SP for once, fix all the car spawn problems, fix all the graphical glitches (pop in cause it's been pretty bad with the newest patches and wasn't nearly as bad before that) and maybe that will increase the FPS a little for some, I don't have fps problems anymore, well only when I fire a rocket launcher at myself when i'm in god mode but that's about it. They should also open up all of the game's interiors that way it will make the game feel more alive, rather than fake cardboard looking building with plastic covering them. GTA V Map just feels fake to me compared to GTA IV which felt very alive with all of it's interiors. I loved that little hotel you can go in, that was pretty neat.

Quick saving in an area seems to influence what categories of vehicles will spawn. Quick saving in Chamberlain Hills will likely give you junky cars, for instance, while quick saving in Rockford Hills gives you higher end cars.

[Lethal Vaccine]

Possibly true. I have my Comet quicksaved in Vinewood Hills and when I load up my game sitting in my Comet all I see is high end vehicles, lol. It doesn't even have to be Super and Sports, a lot of high end Sedans and Coupes, too...

[buginafug]

You're also more likely to see more of the same cars the longer you play from what I recall. Like I said before though, the variety of vehicles for me on the 360 is outstanding. I've also noticed that every time I switch from, let's say the docks to the 'hood, the spawning classifications of vehicles are native to those areas (e.g. Buccaneers and Mananas in East Los Santos, dump trucks and semis on the bridge that takes you into the port of LS.)

[ric4rd094]

So, we have 1.12 and the bug returns!

C'mon Rockstar, make this game playable, cause this bug is almost gamebreaking!

1.11 was quite good, but still won't re-randomized vehicles.

 

I'll not play the game unless R* fix it actually

Here are some recent 1.12 screenshots (we have SUVs or Emperors, that's really great - pay more attention and you'll find ONE FELTZER!):

Why is it that this bug occurs the most with SUV's and jeeps? I find it comical, actually. It's annoying for sure, but pretty hilarious in its own way.
