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. 

I would accept this if they remove aimbot blind firing OP npcs that can had shot a player with laser precision pistol and that minigun rate of fire glitched ARs that can kill in a half a second. They won't do this so no thanks to your rebalance. I never even magdump because i have no reason to when they are down with one headshot apart from headhunter bodyguards and the other times when players are forced to to so if they miss headshot and hit enemy in shoulder for example, then suddenly headshot is not working anymore because R* logic.

@ACR Finally Home...sadly i see no improve with My hardware: 

Ryzen 5 3600

RX580 8gb 

SSD 1TB 

16gb of ram 

Asus TUF Gaming motherboard  

 

With MSSA x2 and Reflection MSAA off: 

Freeroam: 55.7 fps average with drops in áreas with grass 

Casino: 59-60 drops all the time 

Cayo perico: lowest 37-41 fps with 50-52 in not grass áreas (with MSSA off i get 47 fps as the lowest value in grass áreas)

lscm: average of 50 with drops 45-46  

 

When i turn MSSA off i get 60 fps locked im all áreas with minimun drops, but My character hair looks pixelated wich My ocd can't handle.

 

I don't have a high refresh monitor, SO Iam always locked at 60 fps

 

I need keep trying some tweaks here and there but overall not so good performance in general 

When Krypto market collapses, maybe i can Upgrade My graphics card

How difficult is it for Rockstar to close all that den of mod menus? or they can't because the pc community is a crybaby  And they will defend them

Try to disable MSSA and enable FXAA, you will improve performance and you won't have pixelated hair.

it's not that they don't want to, it's that they don't host lobbies on servers, I don't know much beyond that but I do know anti cheat works best when the game all runs on the same servers, rather than p2p

The option to hide them existed up until this update/E&E release.

Granted we did wait a long ass time for the option to hide Martin's Dispatch originally.

There is a bug in the Gen9 versions where your Agency would suddenly have the "moving" boxes appear again after migration, I wonder if that's what's happening here?

Idk what happened, after entering the game, i think i press the right option that was to go to the adv. mode that is 4x $, but i landed on the agency (my default spawn location) and yes, my office was empty too like 1st day of the DLC, no trophies, etc. But after i changed session it went back to normal.



About fps changes, idk, i can't really tell and then you get paranoid, i felt like i was seeing this debawchee and banshee types too much around vinewood boulevard and in colours that usually i don't see:



Also, did they toke away the tr4ns npc's? I saw yesterday an article saying that the new consoles removed them, so i checked on pc and they were there (in c0ckatoos), but after today i went there again and they weren't. I don't think they always spawns, but this update could had maybe removed them on PC too:

BUT OVERALL, IF THEY UPDATED THE GAME TO PREPARE THE PC TO E&E, THAT'S ALL GOOD NEWS TO ME!

Basically the 'server' is the best connection of the lobby, meaning the one player who has the best connection acts as the host, revealing his, and the rest of the players IP adress to these mod menus. Most games have moved on onto server based lobbies.

You must be getting GPU limited in that case, looking at your GPU. Even pre-patch I got higher than that on the same Ryzen 5 3600. I definitely get more "CPU FPS" post-patch. If you're GPU limited you wouldn't notice a difference. The GTANet Twitter poll has been 40/60 all day, I'd expect a much lower ratio if people weren't noticing anything at all, seems like there's still quite a few people answering "yes it's smoother" even though most may not be sensitive to it or are voting under different setups.

That bug is in the "E&E" version too, so basically that's now happening on PC too, this seems to have been kind of a "sync patch" where some E&E stuff is synchronised with the current builds. Kind of a shame the bug fixes didn't seem to make it though - character switches are still slow on PC when you transition from GTAO to SP.

Possibly, as the new Gen9 carcols files aren't empty unlike most other Gen9 files.

Noob here: what's a carcol file?

[Spider-Vice]

Carcols = Car Colours. It's the file that defines what colours cars can use, including Chameleon colours which are included in a file named carcols_gen9.meta. It's a term that exists since the GTA 3 era GTA's.

I do still get some jerkiness online

FPS is closer to what it would be in SP, but no magic bullet

I'm not maxed out on CPU, but the engine's ability of my CPU is limiting my fps a bit that only API changes (Vulkan) could fix.

on 2/1 res scaling, my gpu does get maxed out, but even then, it seems like some bloat was fixed

Seems like ANOTHER patch is on the way...

but then and again, they only listed the fixed switching in the NEXT gen version part of the notes...

do with that what you will

I kindly ask the powers that be at R* to expedite the release of these majestic colours on PC as I'm craving some Chameleon coloured vehicles.

 

Yours, Spider.

 

 

[needforsuv]

I'm willing to bet R* also added the codes, handling, and blank files to PS4 versions and will add the cars along with the HSW PARTS along with the proper pc release, but leave the scripts for them/HSW blank in ps4

On one hand, you COULD say the blank files are simply a way of making it a bit easier as they now have the same structures for future updates across all platforms.

On the otherhand, the car modkits and handling files not being blanked out does indicate they plan to add them to PC, esp when you consider the re-rating, hiring positions, general sense, and what they said in 2020, etc.

If they had the scripts in, ofc modders will be able to do the things with HSW... but dropping handling lines and paint colors? If they wanted to keep those secret they could've easily done so.

One of these days, they might slip up and drop the full files before they get properly released.

But it's not like they haven't hid things in the files before, Jester Classic was pretty much unfinished and half-shipped before it actually was released.

All of those unreleased will be part GTA+ exclusives and they gonna package one or few of them every month, so if you want all of them you gonna have to fork $6 every month for who knows how long

It had a proper page and everything in the SSASS Update or whatever and it proudly said it was part of that update before they changed it. 
They more than likely held it back when they realized they f'ed up after it blew on here/reddit/youtube/twitter.

Which I wanted to point out that the 'place' in the background, well... You would know what that place is called. So I was joking that the "Unicorn" could be someone  that works there that vomited on Trevor's Banshee to make it like that. Do you get what I mean? Kinda of a coincidence that Summerbreeze mentioned Unicorn when that place is in the background

I don't know what the hell is going on since the migration of my save to the PS5, but every other time I load up the game, it steals various ammo from my arsenal. Mostly all ammo from some of the throwables and heavy weapons. Oh! And I forgot, sniper rounds too. Fireworks Launcher was gone forever, though, since you can't buy them unless if's July 4th.

 

Oh, and why the hell does this supposedly expanded and enhanced version STILL freeze my game in my Agency, like it did on the PS4?

 

I'm glad my fireworks launcher went missing. Damn thing would pop up every time I wanted to use the homing launcher. Police Maverick! Eat this... bottle rocket?!

 

[VitoCorleone1992]

Ok, looks like the bs of the agency office being empty each time that you join a session with that it as the spawn location, happens everytime you login. (If you exit the agency and enter again, the bug will be gone).

Also, why this? Do the E&E fixed this sh*t?
