I used to play GTA SA on PC at Max Draw Distance. All I can say is the Draw Distance in this one looks kinda similar to the PC version. I don't think they removed the fog/haze, they probably reduced its ubiquity.

I'm not 100% sure on the draw distance, I only noticed it in the scene with CJ in the desert, but maybe it's because they re-moved the sandstorm (which in itself is a questionable change). I don't think this trailer does the new game justice, it's probably not as bad as I think it is, but for some reason they chose the moments that aren't greatly representative of the game.

 

Need the gameplay video.

i think that ak isnt the final model

this is from the trailer and this ak looks way better even from so far away

looks literally same, just in the distance, so cheapness of the model&texture not that noticeable

Carl Johnson in Trilogy. Somehow made me think of Junior Will Smith haha

[Piro]

I can't believed they seen this and said "yep, thats a good looking screenshot"

 

2021 gaming everyone... Something that looks like a texture load glitch and a color scheme from MS Paint.

Looks like all textures got AI up-scaled and someone approved it without actually checking if it looks better than the original or not

the lamp looks like it was directly unchanged ported from the original

Bruh the lightpoles were literally 3 poligons what are you talking about  yes the textures looks ugly but the mesh is an update version of the original

Can't believe the YT likes ratio.. It seems that Rockstar spent their billions on bots 

 

Btw the skyboxes are extremely disgusting.

i think the clouds look volumetric, which is a good thing. that means that we can fly inside them and it will look really good in gameplay

Makes me kinda wish they showed some flying footage, definitely wanna see how it looks from up above.

At 0:44 in the trailer, the gun shots sound different. But I'm not sure if they did this for the trailer

If you pay attention every single trailer Rockstar makes has different sound effect that are not in the game.

Yeah that's why I said "if they did this for the trailer" because they did that before. But since it's a Remaster, made me think about it

Three polygons, indeed. But yeah, that mesh is probably redone, but still, those textures look unchanged.

The only thing I don't like is how bad the clothes are in GTA SA, while clothes look redone in vice city! If they could fix the clothes and unnecessary shine on the character models, it's a 10/10 for me!

[SquoniX]

Looks like a mod, pretty good tbh.

It is possible that NPCs will now have more color variations, so we will get ALL COLORS OF RAINBOW 12.

It a bigger announcement that these games will be available on Nintendo after 20 years of locking out Nintendo.  How GTAV is not on Nintendo switch is just mind numbingly dumb....so many shark cards to sell there.  Looks worse than I had hoped but better than expected.  I will buy this and I might even play it.

[Bigglo145]

I hope that facial hair isnt default on CJ. His default facial hair was never that prominent, it was just chin fuzz. He has a full on goatee now.

Will it come with hot coffee included? 

I wouldn't count on it. Wouldn't be surprised if it does considering that the ESRB rating is now 18 and above compared to the original game's 17+ which was removed after "Hot Coffee". Speaking of Hot coffee, where are you at @PatrickW?

 

 

I hope PW comes right back after the release and ports his mod to the remastered engine.

while the world does look good (still waiting to see if las venturas got the og ps2 props around the casino)

Would be a shame to not have the OG props considering that they are using a different engine which allows for more flexibility. They can afford to add detailed props in Sweet's kitchen. Should be able to do it for the Casino without any effort.

There seems to be a new ped in the car. She is very similar to Kendl's ingame model that kinda went unused.

Red 9? (Orange 12 but red)

Nice find though I believed that to be an oversaturated orange. I am not sure which one it is.

If this is a minor graphical improvement to you, then you don't know or haven't played these games in quite a while. Also why would they add tons of new features?

So you don’t want new additions which are an improvement to an old game? Now everyone is over the moon for old games with only graphical improvements.  Rockstar has it easy

Grass on the sidewalk in SA:

 

GTA V tree?



Vase inside a building

[Doublepulse]

All three games look exactly how I was imagining this few weeks back. Had a few dreams I was playing this and its picture perfect to what I saw in my dream. I personally like the way the characters look. They remind me of those action figures they released awhile back. 

I think the reason they went this something like this is because those old models are so out of date that making too many realistic touches to it would butcher them, and I really didn't like the reflective vaseline look they put on the old models in previous mobile ports.

They can finally feel the air between their fingers…

[MartyThePlayer]

Noticing the dirt on the ZR-350. I wonder if they will finally ACTUALLY make the dirt system work in SA, and make the car washes functional.

Good find, at first I noticed the reflection and believed that there is no dirt system. Looks like I had to look at the edges. I hope the car loses this shiny look if it gets too dirty. I personally don't think car washes will work but recoloring will steal clean your car.

Exploded cars now actually have a burned texture and lose all their windows, rather than just losing their panels and turning dark.

On the right most side of the last image near sun there is something written "final build"

 

That's just part of the crane model.

They should add the og feltzer, admiral, sentinel and vincent to gtao. Cant wait to see the older bmws and Mercedes.
