Is GTA V dead?

V's cover system works much, much better.

 

Well obviously. R* had 5 years, RDR and MP3 to learn from to make it work "much, much better". They had no excuse. Then again I've always wondered what their excuse is for GTA V lacking crouching, being able to pick things up, grab and hold onto ledges etc. All core aspects that were present in GTA IV and I still don't see why they're not present in GTA V.

 

Like most things GTA V is one step forward and two steps (or more) back in this regard.

 

 

I know exactly why they took out ledge-hanging, and it's a damned good reason, too.

 

It never f*cking worked right.

 

I can't tell you how many times, as Niko, I'd go to climb over something, only for Niko to jump and grab on, then just dangle there because apparently, even though it appeared to be something he could climb over, it in fact was not. So he'd just dangle there and get shot to death.

 

I can think of zero circumstances where hanging from a ledge would ever come in handy in V. I don't miss it. Having the ability to do things just for the sake of being able to do them is pointless.

 

Crouching? Yeah, I wish there was more of a "sneak" mode than what we have now. No argument there.

 

Being able to pick things up? You know I really can't think of a time outside of that one lame ass mission in IV where I ever used that feature...

We need a parkour system though.

 

Why, so the game can be more like inFAMOUS or Assassin's Creed? No, we really, really don't need parkour.

Like for one protagonist. I expected Frank to be able to do it fluently. It doesn't need to be like InFAMOUS or Assassin's Creed. Something good enough then just grab and climb.

I cringe when I play Assassin's Creed 4, only to return to GTAV or GTAO only to see that the characters can't even grab a wall.

 

We don't really need an Assassin's Creed style Parkour per-se but anything similar would be amazing.

Play Mafia city of lost heaven to understand how crouching changes the shooting experience. Its a thriller. Add to that the games realistic reload feature which will empty your entire clip making you conserve those bullets till the last one and using your weapons effectively. Sometimes enemies with shotguns will literally run towards you and kill you instantly unless you fire quickly in respond using duck and cover system effectively otherwise you will to keep changing your positions, and stay crouched taking out enemies by surprise.

So much fun!!!

With no crouching to duck around and experiment with your position, as well as the AI being programmed in such a way that the gameplay becomes linear like set pieces, as the level was designed for you to use the cover system, and chances are you will be blown to death easily by the enemies by not following the scripted path.

Stealth mode doesn't allow you to duck to cover yourself without being detected. It only helps with the enemies positioned with their backs turned towards you as seen in many games trying to make stealth easy as f*ck, and pointless once detected too.

Basically, Rockstar could have made the shootouts much more interesting and challenging by spicing things up with more open ended nature and freedom to plan ahead by going stealth or loud, just like in Heists.

Although even that's a joke as the options aren't any sort of dynamic in nature but split in two variants instead. You can't go stealthy once you choose to opt for loud approach, and vice versa.

Absolutely hilarious. Sounds like dumbed down for the worse. Rockstar are much more competent than what they designed in V.

For a dev who doesn't care about SP, theres an awful lot of SP fixes in the new update. You can store another car now too :O

It's crazy on how there's an amount of glitches fixed for Story Mode, not that it's a bad thing. Not to sound like a idiot, but maybe that's a sign of DLC. Why would they pay attention to Story Mode all of a sudden?

There allways were fixes for SP DLC not only on this Update...

Also R* allready announced next Update will have something to do with the Creator on their Newswire

What actually "Game X is dead" means is that the single player lacks a strong replay value.

Imagine V without GTA:O and then you will easily understand.

That's why many people are demanding SP dlc for some new life into it.

It means that to you. Its not what it actually means.

 

No one goes to the suits and says "the game is dead" when over 100,000 people are playing it.

Where did I ever defend it? It was funny like, for half an hour, but I'd much rather have it replaced with a dive/slide button.

For the love of god I hope they finally unlock the f*cking airport and military base in creator mode... as well as the countless vehicles locked off for no f*cking reason.

 

EDIT: just read their post:

"One such update that we are currently working on for a next update is a new feature to enable creators to properly stack props, adding proper support for that highly-requested feature powering super fun mega-ramps, loops and parkour courses – please stay tuned for more information on that. Thanks again to the entire Creator community for their amazing, innovative work and very detailed feedback – we encourage all players to please continue sending your wishlists and suggestions to [email protected] as it is of invaluable help in informing positive fixes, tweaks and other updates to the game."

 

Ok, so not a Creator mode overhaul, just a way to legitimately stack props. Whoopdeef*ckingdoo.

I am not kidding

Rockstar Newswire:

 

 

Amongst these items by popular demand will be the ability for creators to make custom Jobs at the Los Santos International Airport and the Fort Zancudo Military Base for the first time. We can’t wait to see what the Creator community cooks up in those previously off-limits areas. We’ve received lots of other fantastic feedback to the official GTA Online feedback inbox from the Creator community about features they’d like to see. One such update that we are currently working on for a next update is a new feature to enable creators to properly stack props, adding proper support for that highly-requested feature powering super fun mega-ramps, loops and parkour courses – please stay tuned for more information on that.

 

As usual with R*'s weird sentence structure of course lol...

I just noticed the Pacific Standard Bank Is open in SP since the heists update and you can open the vault with bombs. I'll invest in a company, wait for the cash to roll in, get the trio together, then pretend I'm robbing the bank. After that I'll get the cash from my successful investment, then pretend that was the score I took.

I honestly feel like Vigilante is overrated. Was there anything else to it than chases and shootouts?

As opposed to yoga/tow trucking/taxi/taking pics (in a videogame!)/or the whopping 4 bail bond missions.

I didn't say you were defending it nor that you should, but you said that there is no reason to keep a pointless feature in the game, thinking about ledge grabbing and items picking system. V got it's own plethora of useless stuff, so it's kind of even right now. And I would prefer to keep the item picking system to be left alone or even replaced by something more sophisticated like makeshift melee weapons, than being removed completely, where at the same time ragdoll button bullsh*t is kept in the game.

 

Same goes for ledge grabbing as it worked quite often for me and it was much more sensible and less cringeworthy that seeing one of the V protagonist to fell his head down even from the smallest jump.

Ragdoll is useless? HAHAHAHAHA!

 

You can knock people down using the Ragdoll feature without instantly killing them. Its fun seeing an angry redneck trying to kill Trevor just because he face-planted himself and fell on him.

You can get down a mountain quite quick with ragdoll, picking things up gave you access to bricks made of foam, if it returns, bricks that don't bounce off a pedestrians head would be good.

As said before. Ragdoll? Useless? HA.

 

It's a lot more fun ragdolling into people and off mountains than throwing a burger at some fat guy.

Crouching would be pointless thanks to the new cover system, there wouldn't be a point for it

 

Wrong. It would be very useful. There were lots of times when I wanted to stay low while moving around.

 

What's next? Are you also going to say it would be pointless to be able to leave car engines running?

Lethal Vaccine

After a 14 month hiatus, GTA V is now back in my PS3. I also updated from 1.00 to 1.25 all in one go. f*cking took 3+ hours to finish updating 25 times.

 

Anyways, lets see if V has any life after 14 months. The whole reason for stopping in the first place is cuz it got boring as f*ck.
