A bit off topic -

I bought a physical PS4 copy from Amazon. It says that it will only be available on December 20th. Any chance it will change an it will be shipped on December 7th?

i saw this too, seems like they sell the physical copies through rockstar store, and amazon etc get it later ... sux twice

I think most of everything that was lost is lost forever and everything else will stay in tact because back in 2016 they were trying to get perpetuity licenses which is a license that doesn't expire. 

Still confused on whether this is good or bad, but judging from the reactions, it seems bad. I would prefer if someone can sum it up to me why and how.

I don't really care, as long as it doesn't affect the overall game. It's normal to use ready assets to save time and money, they probably did that with older games as well.

it's impossible to argue with the "this sucks!" crowd - they'll just keep moving the goalposts back and eventually scream "HOW DARE YOU LIKE THIS!!!"

the logical truth is that something as simple as this is no indication of the game's quality, but it gives them 'ammo' for their viewpoint so they'll grasp at the straw anyway.

I hope they re-add the farting and burping mechanic to GTA 3

YES!!! THIS I THE ATMOSPHERE I EXPECTED FOR THE TRILOGY!

should  gtx 1050 ti be enough to play these all ultra

[BilalKurd]

By the way, how does pre-ordering in the digital Xbox Store work? Is there some sort of pre-install or do you install the game when it actually releases?

I think the Bad thing is R* outsourced to a Music Clearing House that uses interns to acquire permanent music licensing. The Good thing is that they were acquiring indefinite licensing so no more music should be lost.

the 970 is the recommended GPU, and the 1050ti is according to the internet around 60% slower

[Am3l]

i am looking to upgrade graphics card just  for these and i think gtx 1050 ti is good option

Either the script is broken and the peds just walk straight without using paths, or there are no paths for peds in this area and they just try to reach the nearest area that has paths.

Since there are no sidewalks for pedestrians to walk on, and peds in this area only spawn in cars, I think the second theory is true.

Just needs a bit more work on the characters, definitely. In terms of the maps, I have literally have no words. They freaking nailed the upgrades

As a huge Crash Bandicoot and Spyro the Dragon fan, I can say I have some experience in the "remaster plus" area, which was the term the developers used to describe these games and I think it fits perfectly here aswell (same game, QoL improvements, big step up on graphics).

But basically, "complaining" and pointing out stuff that didn't seen right actually helped A LOT in the end (to the point that one character in Crash Team Racing Nitro-Fueled has two versions in the game: the original and the "fixed" version, all because of the complaints it got from the fanbase).

But then again, those games were announced almost a year from release, which gave the devs a lot of time to fix all the stuff people were talking about in forums and the official subreddit... But here? I honestly doubt something will change in 2 weeks. I'll be luck if they patch stuff later on.

[Muramasa1794]

Wonder if the gangs will look the same or have minor changes in appearance like for example the Yakuza from GTA III

[StarJet905]

I would suggest not jumping the gun on stuff like graphics cards so fast. Wait for the game to launch. There's bound to be reports by places like Digital Foundry on how these run, and what kind of hardware you really need. Don't rely on the system requirements with typos in them.

I hope this is still in there. I remember this was one of the few real myths like the graffiti in the cemetery at night and the ghost car.

I don't want the technical explanation of the original version lmao I want to know if it'll be featured in the DE

I know right? It's one of the most iconic things in the game

Spyro is a curious case which is marketed as a remaster but is in reality remade from the ground up and they have said as much in interviews

https://www.shacknews.com/article/107103/spyro-reignited-trilogy-interview-rebuilding-the-game-from-the-ground-up

 

On the other hand, the GTA remaster appears to still use old assets, though some have been clearly remade. Rockstar only claims that these DEs are "updated to modern platforms"

Can we start a petition to fix the character models lol? At the very LEAST, Tommy needs to be like that fix someone posted here earlier.

Wonder if III and VC will play more like San Andreas now.

Another thing I've learned from these remasters I've mentioned is: give up trying to figure it out which point in time (game build) are those screenshots and videos. Devs will use older and newer builds in the same trailer or article and they don't care. So stuff that don't look good in some of these screenshots right now might already been fixed. Or not. We're only gonna know for sure after the game is out (obvious, I know, but trust me).

1050 ti will do fine tbh if you can drop the resolution to 900p and add amd fsr with lossless scaling then it will surely run great!
