i'm no car expert, but i don't think the suspension springs should bend like that

the zhaba and back of the vagrant do that too, except the former doesn't have suspension irl

 

also, basic roll bars uses the becover collision while one of the cell things has none

 

the jumpseats could literally be plastic versions of those uncomfortable carbon race seats or just plastic normal seats

There is a lovely bug with the returning RC Bandito Races don't think they go there Chief seems to be the way for all special vehicle races 

if the ignus and ardent fits (or doesn't need the special features)

 

those would dominate

i5 CPU from 2012 onwards had no issues running GTA V at 60 fps

I dunno, a gen 2 i7 isn't quite up to task with all the bog these days.

 

But my 2014 laptop still runs gta better than the consoles

just the usual wheel colors

oh i got a whole list (and no, it's not a b&m, it's legitimate concern and witty remarks about the diminishing vehicle quality in a game named after the crime of stealing cars)

• both blower mods don't have collisions. which is baffling, because.... they do exist in the model. they just weren't assigned to the part. which is literally a single line to edit for each blower, or two if you want it to be done perfectly.
• i'm no car expert, but i don't think the suspension springs should bend like that
• Short Roll Cage w/ Fuel Cell has a new style of dirt mapping, the cool lines!
• and so does the Roll Cage w/ Tire Mount. hmm, maybe it's not an issue with quality standards this DLC, but just in-lore someone took a credit card or a razor to the dirt and lined it up like it's coke. all around a bar without it falling off, but hey!
• Ram Snorkel also has this new high-tech AAA dirt mapping.
• oh and speaking of dirt mapping, all license plates on the rear (and front, not pictured) bumpers do not get dirty (stock for reference). license plates.... a part from a generic parts bin. missing the most basic of features........
• some amateur does not know how plastic works. which means you get something that looks like mold on the Heavy Duty Bull Bar.
• the bed floor is mapped in a way that it overlaps with the mapping for the Painted Canopy mod. so you get a random stripe on the rear right side of the floor with certain liveries.
• the skid plate on the Crux Skid Plate parts magically changes size between regular and painted.
• someone was incredibly lazy when doing the deformation paint on mod part hoods. it's supposed to be a smooth gradient and not an abrupt cutoff. and yes, i have full right to call it lazy, because that's exactly the kind of sh*t i do when making car mods when i don't feel like doing proper paint in that moment. so, naturally, in game, if you really crash the car a lot (or just run it with a tank) you get a... cliff, i guess?
• same with the Painted Canopy. christmas is coming fast, i don't have time for gradients!
• the so-called "primary [color]" bullbars are actually chrome. well, to be specific, painted chrome. someone either screwed up the reflectivity of the material, or gave it a misleading name. because if your primary color is black, you don't get a black-colored bullbar. you get a straight-up chrome one. so while it's cool to have paintable chrome, either the material or the name need fixing.
• [subjective opinion, so don't count as an issue] the car is based on the subaru brat, which is known quite well for its jump seats. sooooooo.... where are they? the one part that would really suit it. i guess it wasn't in the recyclable parts bin?

and for that whole list of issues, r* is going to have the audacity to charge you at minimum $19.99 for it (or $19.98 if you're GTA+). and i know, the money can be earned in game, but i doubt r* won't try to FOMO the thing which is likely to get people to open up the wallets. hell, even without FOMO i'm pretty sure some people would.

 

let's hope this is not a gta6 car...

Maybe still work in progress? I mean: They have reworked the interiors of the stash house since they have released them - added more stuff, fixed "merged boxes" and so on. Maybe that's what they will do with other stuff like cars too?

Even my CPU from 2008 and my GPU from 2011 are running GTA V more smooth than a PS4 from late 2013. On a serious side note: That's hilarious.

doubt it.

 

They only 'fix' like 10% of dodgy cars

 

iWagen still has no front neon

 

and gtav isn't maxing out my cpu, but gains from the gpu are minimal because more optimisation is needed with everything they've added

nah, they almost never care to fix cars let alone hold them back before release. they've only ever held one car back, the jester classic, and it's only because everyone whined about their precious fast and furious jdm bro meme car not being held to a standard as hyperinflated as the real car's price tag and rating. if it had been any other car, nobody would care, and it'd release in a dogsh*t state, as the 300r has already proven.

 

strangely, r* does keep updating cars, with minor fixes and all but usually it's corrections to mapping seams, or the LOD models. it's very rare to see actual fixes being made - like that one time they updated the casco god knows what for but haven't fixed the "inidcator" typo. but to give credit where it's due, this dlc fixed a typo in the draugur's model that prevented its roof lightbar from being toggleable. so there's that. 10f also got updated and i assume it's to fix the incorrectly flipped taillight bones. so, it's a hit and miss with that.

 

fixing vehicle models also requires actual title updates, which r* is allergic to making outside of dlc's and random security fixes. the longfin, which released in cayo perico heist in december 2020, released with its dials flipped, basically the needles would rotate the wrong way. i personally made a mod/edit in march 2021 where i flipped them the right way round and then tested the model, it took me like 10 minutes to do in total. eventually, rockstar officially fixed it. 2 entire dlc's later. in december 2021...

i have a 3rd gen i7, but have literally zero issues running the game even with self radio. in fact it carried me for the first few months of the game's release on pc before i was able to (barely) afford a dedicated gpu (which i still use to this day because i could buy a second and third ps5 for the price of 1 gpu nowadays, and i can't afford either).

 

though that might drastically change if r* decides to force everyone to update to the graphical upgrades/gimmick reflections without an option to keep the current settings

[Spider-Vice]

There is a reason the "E&E" PC thread ceased to exist and bullsh*t like some of the posts I've now removed is the reason, don't bring gamerspeak (Consolists, PCists, really? Childish reactions to those words on top, really?) arguments here, keep it to DLC speculation or general chatter about things. This forum can not, and has never been able to speculate about PC releases in peace, especially when it becomes console fans vs PC fans.

 

Let's continue on.

Meanwhile the goddamn stock Faction has been update 3 or 4 times by now, and yet it still f*cking flies on any curb on the road, and the stock hood magically turns into a Turbo bulge hood when it gets detached.

 

Their inconsistencies with vehicles patches and updates must drive a modeller like you to insanity, I assume.

roof lightbar

it's only got a single light beam, but at least it's not on the hood?

at least the wheels are all seemingly aligned correctly UNLIKE the jester RR with its one wheel being off and one side being off

 

they also 'fixed' the popup headlights on the futo gtx, but now the aim is way low unless you add fogs and use highbeams

 

it was fun to point at the ceiling before lol

I absolutely do not understand how cars became minor elements in a game about cars. 

And with every release the quality gets worse and worse. And it's not like "we can't to do it orderly", it's more like "we don't care about it, we don't give a damn".

even when they know they don't bother

 

but the jester classic really was a mess tho, it was literally half finished
