So what was going on with the reports earlier in the topic that Nightclub Goods seemed increased even with the existing bonus?

Several Nightclub Goods have increased in value, but not the Daily Income tied to the popularity bar.

What did they mean by this? Are neon interior lights an actual thing in E&E or is it just those glowing benny's signs?

The new patch made it unable to play singleplayer mods on PC

Scripthook needs to be updated with the latest version of the game if i'm not wrong

Loaded into car meet, no change whatsoever when it comes to framerates, gpu or cpu usage. Same thing with casino and driving on traffic crowded streets such as winewood boulevard and del perro one. I even noticed slightly more fps drops on high speed driving in those areas but that could be due to different time of the day and othet factors. 

All in all, in my case i hadn't noticed any performance improvements. 

[Spider-Vice]

Well they're definitely there for me and a few other people have reported them (and the opposite) so I guess it can be setup dependent too. There's definitely more people noticing something as even our Twitter poll is at a 40 (yes) / 60 (no) ratio which is a lot more than I expected, expected something like 10% saying "yes it's improved" and 90% saying "no, same thing".

 

 

Still, for those who seem to be noticing them, good news. I'm assuming the definitive stuff is yet to come when PC gets the proper E&E content and code so we shall wait  

[MrThankUvryMuch]

I put it in the bugs thread but they completely broke bookmarked jobs and playlists, at least on PS5:

- All bookmarked jobs don't show up ingame, as if they've all been un-bookmarked

- You can't access any playlists you've created or create any new ones

- The recently played jobs list has been reset

 

So you only have access to jobs you yourself have created or R* created ones. Sick.

[Crateman]

 PC players about the recent news....

But we shall wait

Ah it's ok

Havent tested yet still at work, but when You replied My meme was incomplete, i Will tell if i find some improve...

@Spider-Vice





Really not sure what is going on here ... Could be a graphical/texture bug?

[Zaniness]

I have a small framerate increase but also microstutters around certain areas. Not really an improvement in my book.

 

Menus are way smoother though, especially the map.

Just let us know here when you can, i'm curious about that, but i think it's more the case of placebo with maybe significant margin of improvement on higher end components. 

[Spider-Vice]

Increased microstutters could be because of the blip settings resetting if you had custom ones. I think having all blips and events turned on affects that, from discussions here from when they first introduced the option.

Read some of the pages, i'm not really excited for PS5/XS content coming to PC, but really appreciate that mod menus aren't working and the cheater problem is potentially being targeted.

but the bigger question is...

mod menus, just like every other mod, needs to be updated every title update, well not every mod, but most. the mod menus will be back up in a matter of hours, days at the most

[mute!]

that may explain why I haven't seen any spam messages during my brief morning playthrough.

[The Gator]

Still no safezone settings for PS5, huh?

The only thing worse than an Oppressor Mk II is an Oppressor Mk II in plaid.

Yeah, disabling blips to how it was pre-patch helped a bit, but the game still feels choppy at times. Maybe I'm imagining things, I haven't played much lately, so my idea of how the game was isn't the freshest.

 

And yeah, LSCM frames improved the most out of everything.

I lied. A Mk II with dolla dolla livery is actually worse.

So the color of these doors changed. Honestly, for the better. Love the new turquoise!

The old one was the same shade of blue as the rest of the walling around the door.

Those are colormaps, basically allows the engine to tint the non-patterned walls based on the theme that you chose when acquiring the penthouse.

 

In layman's terms, it's a f*cking bug. GG bugstar.

They updated the hide options menu on pc that's all I have noticed. Kinda sucks tbh. This new menu is not good because the hide all option is gone and know all the story mission markers remain on the map with no option to remove them unlike before.

Been like that since NG came out, it f*cking sucks.

Was hoping this patch would fix it but got on and quickly closed the game upon seeing I still couldn't hide that sh*t. WTF! Do they not remember us submitting support tickets to hide Martin's annoying Dispatch jobs? We don't want this clutter on the map and having our phones get spammed whenever we drive by those places!

 

Do I seriously have to wait until f*cking June for this sh*t to be resolved?

[ilovefreebird]

So they revamped the "Hide Options" menu and now I have Madrazo and Simeon icons stuck on my map. That's on top of the 2 Lamar ones I still can't remove. Nice!

The thing is my doors are normal, which is why I questioned them earlier.  Strange. Mine are still dark blue not turquoise.

Welcome to the E&E player's world.

It's been like that since the upgrade was released.

 

You forgot Gerald's annoying ass.

A rebalance I’d like to see considering guns is the implementation of overheating/jamming.

have a little temperature bar come up when using firearms, which increases the more you fire a single weapon rapidly. If it reaches the max, the gun jams and the player has to spend several seconds clearing it. Different guns having different heat management capabilities. Guns like the MGs can fire near-indefinitely without overheating, whilst guns like the assault shotgun will overheat and jam before they can even finish a single salvo.

 

this way people won’t just be relying on magdumping assault rifles constantly, and have to be a bit more tactical in their weapon usage. As it is, guns like SMGs and LMGs are functionally useless because you can just magdump an AR all day without suffering any consequences.

god no, what? why? if you insist on making the shooting mechanics even worse than they already are just add recoil to guns
