PC x PS4 - No Dynamic Shadows?

I bought GTA V for like a month now. While I'm playing the game, I was amazed on its superb graphics and First Person mode!

 

To be honest, I watched some GTA V videos before buying, like let's play videos or online gameplays.

 

I just noticed about the game's Dynamic Shadows that only appears on PC platform! I dunno if they also appear in Xbox One..

 

So.. We know PS4 is a next-gen console, and before GTA V has been released for the next-gen consoles like PS4, we wished and expected Rockstar Games to maximize their game's graphics for the next-gen consoles. But no they didn't :(

 

Sooo PC wins?

They left a lot of them disabled for some reason, luckily on PC there are mods which bring them back, such as VisualV.

Probably because of

 

@_MK_

RAGE has a limitation to render up to 16 dynamic lights with shadow maps, when shadow disappear, limit is breached so game is removing rhe shadow map.

 

i noticed the same issue on vanilla IV, where the shadows just tendto disappear.
