The snow is better this year

I will have to say, when people began posting about wanting snow once again this year, it didnt excite me any, because last year it was only a texture that did not have any real effect on driving ect.

 

But yesterday i noticed real quick vehicles handled a lot different in the snow , they now had a serious push when cornering and braking time is way longer LOL

 

And given the fact we can now throw snowballs, gave me a night of laughs that lasted longer than the gameplay.......

 

I thought i would bust a rib laughing when i beaned a bald cop in the face with a snowball and he promptly drew his gun, and told me to drop my weapon which was a snowball...I manage to snowball him to death before i died at the hands of his partners

 

Last year i dont remember the snow while doing missions or any kind of Job, maybe it was and i have just forgot it

 

Nice Improvements over last year Rockstar

Are offroad tires even effective on dirt over other regular tires? As a pro driver in the game I finally put on some offroad tires on my Gauntlet for my (shameless plug) Dune Boys Derby II race #Dune and didnt really feel a noticable difference in handling.

What I noticed is different this time:

-Breathing like in GTA4

-Tracks for car wheels and snow blowing from wheels

-Foot marks

I was rather surprised with the AI last night when I went to a police station and threw a snowball at a cop's chest. He rested his hand on his pistol and threatened me but didn't shoot, surprisingly. Threw another at him and then he and the others drew on me and started shooting. :p

 

There does seem to be a lot less traction on the snow this year around, though. Lots of fun drifting around corners in cars that aren't made for the snow. Makes me wish that snow would be a weather effect that you could toggle on or off for free roam and other activities, at any given time. Not just the 24th and 25th.

Tires and feet left marks last year too...

No they didn't not at all. Snow is a lot different this year.
Hate to tell you tires left trails last year but if you want to think it didn't I'm not stopping you. Literally just watched 8 videos on YouTube to confirm and no they didnt leave tracks.

They did. Google "snow in gta 5 2013" and you'll find many videos of last years snow. Watch them and you'll see.

Sorry but there was most definitely not.

I don't care how many videos you watched to confirm this. I remember driving about last year in the snow and seeing tire marks.

Yea same buddy, and to re watch to make sure there was not, even the people themselves are complaining about no tracks or footprints, and there is a whole reddit thread about it. So again, you are wrong. Sorry m8

As you can see there was alot of complaints about snow being just a texture.

Thank you. Anyways. It's not exactly amazing but it is pretty close. I wish it would kinda melt and have different levels of how hard it was snowing. Like an all out blizzard sometimes. That would be cool.

There was a glitch where the tracks were slightly translucent and were easier to see if you moved the camera but they were definitely there.
