Why is there no car damage?

[mcp1990]

Anyone else notice they took out car damage in both online and story mode? Yeah they can get scratched up and break windows, but in story mode can you no longer smash a car to the point the wheels can't Spin/fall off. In online you can't smash the car so bad it does not drive straight. You cannot even put a dent in them. Come on rockstar give us are freakin damage back this is stupid.

[GTA-Addicted]

Maybe it's an error?

[Chloroform]

Are you using 100% armor?

[devildante11]

That sounds terrific! Means that I can keep my cars in tip top condition.

[iLikeDrivinInMyTruck]

Yeah sounds like the best glitch ever op.

 

If you want realism take a metal bat to your car IRL.

[Totallycasual]

Maybe its to do with deformation obscuring peoples driving view when in first person mode?

 

I'm in two minds on the whole topic, while i do miss GTAIV's level of car destruction and my deaths from flying through the windscreen i have to admit when all things are considered i seem to be happier with V overall

[HKM87]

The patch that came after heists caused this. I really hope it's a bug, like the turbo glitch. Driving is dull without damage

[Knife Deity]

I don't understand how people like it this way. Car damage is amazing. Its like they accidentally gave every car the Kurumas mass.

Could you imagine not having any damage sustained to your car in a video game?

There are many games like that, actually. I much prefer dynamic deformation of vehicles over smashing my car into a wall and backing up with only broken headlights.

Don't think I'm too familiar with these type of games, could you name of couple of titles tho?

[Knife Deity]

A good bit of the Driver series, Forza, Gran Turismo, sleeping dogs, Watch Dogs, these are all examples of games lacking Dynamic deformation. True, the cars DO get damaged, but in boring predictible GTA III era ways.

[Seventh Shin]

I'm quite surprised by these replies, can't believe people want to take the series backwards.

I really hate the lack of dynamic deformation in racing games and it just doesn't feel right, in games such as Forza you do ur best not to crash and keep ur car in the best condition.

i never noticed this because im not a peasant who drives cars with out 100% armor

[Scottyb825]

Not being able to completely crush cars with my insurgent sucks. Hope they bring damage back with next update.

People like you will always keep Gran Turismo a crappy game series.

Lol high and mighty with your fake money huh? It's not about your armored car its about the cars you hit or steal

[JELLY UNICORN]

0/8 we need car damages like Next Car Game

[blue1]

I can't understand why more people doesn't comment on this! The car damage is non-existent on PS4 after heists. I was driving my 100% armored EntityXF and tried to ram an Asea for 4 minutes, its doors fell of just like in GTA 3 but not ANY DAMAGE to the car frame. What the hell have you done R*?!! Bring back damage physics from GTA IV where the car parts doesn't fall off like in some 10 year old game.

[HeavyDuke]

Amen to that.

[NearExpansion]

You never played Gran Turismo 1 to 4 then

I noticed that I'm not getting bad sport messages when motorcycles explode

[Lord Darantuin]

I just put this to test on last gen.

 

Stock Futo found on the side of the road, 30 hits with a baseball bat to the area around the right front wheel:

 

 

What I did notice though that this barely affected the handling.. Very slight deviation to the right. Nothing else.

 

I guess what they could have done is, they've toned down the modifiers, especially those affecting the penalty on handling. What can I say, sadly stuff like this is "2015", everything is stripped and dumbed down to the very basic level to make stuff appealing to the major audience. In return there's no more black and white, only a handful of shades of gray.

 

Believe it or not, modern youngsters want things to be this way. It's obvious isn't it, after all, the gaming industry has to follow modern trends to stay on the nerve of time. Otherwise they'd go out of business.

 

BLAME THE SQUAKERZZ!

They are. There's a few big threads in the SP section of the forum on this subject.

goddamn little kids not wanting their sexyass chrome adder to deform into sh*t brought from the scrapyard and painted chrome

at least cars deform in last gen.. i don't think they do in next gen

[Hoss Soss]

Well, what can I say. GTA4 is for men GTA5 is for boys.

[Dick Grayson]

I think they are in the process of fixing it, my Burrito and Manana both deformed as normal yesterday, but my Dukes and Cheetah didn't. Now it's the other way around

[HeavyDuke]

Lol current gen problems.
