>Why is cruising around on GTA online so comfy?

It's far comfier in SP, Online has a ton of shit ripped out, a hell of a lot less ambient stuff going on in terms of animals, pedestrians, clutter etc simpler effects, the works.

Online a shit.

The rain is the only good part of gta 5

I want to play GTA 5 online only to roleplay as a prostitute, refuse to drive characters and look sexy standing on a sidewalk.

Then I remember I have to do a bunch of lame, boring shit to get money for apartments and outfits, so I don't even bother.

Also I'm stuck with the PS3 version that I'm sure is slower than both PC and PS4 combined.

Has anyone here tried to go back to GTA3? Not VC or SA, the original.

There really isn't much there. I mean games may not necesarily age, but they can certainly be a sign of the time they were made in. No one back then ever tried to make a sandbox game of that scale before, so it really was something amazing.

But VC alone just blew it out of the water and made it so you never needed to go back.

There were a few actually, even dating right back to the Amiga there was stuff like Hunter, and even prior to GTA 3 DMA made Body Harvest on the 64, Driver 2, Shenmue, Urban Chaos etc

GTA 3 was just the first to do it really fucking well.

This is for sale on Steam right now, someone convince me to buy it. Does the First Person mode control like an actual FPS, or does it just place the camera in my characters face and continue to control like a 3rd person game?
>>
I had this game on 360, was like level 130-150.

Things I hated:

>tanks
>supercars
>jets
>triggerhappy playerbase


I was thinking about getting it on PC, but I have the same concern I have with every GTA game on PC

It's either: A)use controller, much more fun to drive, or B)Use keyboard+mouse, necessary to be competitive in multiplayer but a snore to drive

I almost enjoy it on console more because everyone is forced to use the controller
>>
>>339671086
The former. And with the addition of that, playing in third person is basically like aiming/shooting in a FPS - like MP3 minus the groovy animations (in GTA V their back always faces the camera when shooting, unlike in Max Payne 3)
>>
>>339671086
First person mode is pretty good. You're fucking yourself over if you use it, but its done well.
Online is garbage and it filled with Chinese and hackers.
Its fucking weird how many god damn Chinese people play this game.
>>339671276
Tanks aren't a problem anymore.
The shitheads in hydras are the real menace now days.
>It's either: A)use controller...or Use keyboard+mouse
Use both.
>>
>>339671276
>I was like level 130-150
Holy shit, dude. I quit just after I unlocked the Lone Wolf leather jacket - around level 60.

Online is even worse than SP.
>>
>>339671340
>>339671469
Thanks.
>>
>>339671469
>use both

but shooting out of cars is like the most important skill in the entire game and it's obviously way easier with a mouse. That's the whole problem right there.

>>339671659
I had a clan so it was fun cruising around with friends in freemode and starting wars and stuff. Also I had multiple garages full of badass fully decked-out cars so I spent most of my time driving around in them.
>>
>>339671826
Leave your controller on your lap/desk when you're shooting.
When you're just driving pick the controller up.
>>
>>339671826
>Also I had multiple garages full of badass fully decked-out cars so I spent most of my time driving around in them.
This is the only reason to play Online, imo. Of course, it'd be completely out the window if R* would just add car insurance and more garages (or "unlimited space" garages like Sleeping Dogs) to SP.

Because its nice to just stunt and talk to friends and the fact that consolefags are catching up to PC having been able to do this for over a decade so you haven't had the opportunity to realize GTA Online is shit compared to SA MP.
>>
>>339666042
Yea but it's a different experience - it's a full time arcade experience - you just do stuff with other people to get higher points, better scores - overall a fun arcade-like experience.

When you want to do traditional gta stuff, go sp.

Online is fun with a group of friends

Had like a group of 7 + friends that I played with until around level 70.

I've done mastermind with an entirely different group lmao. Just the best players - got togheter, because with friends it was 10/10 times just random deaths, and laughing more than concentrating.

After that friends quit - I played until close to level 100 - then got bored.. since I started to be mostly alone.

Exploited 100 - 140 in one day and quit the game - this is my story.

Without friends gta online would be a waste of time - unless you grind a little and decide to do mastermind challenge - you'll be able to find 3more dedicated people and actually have fun - then it's time to quit.

>Who's on PS4 and wants to hit up some heists?

Not anymore. Rockstar abandoned the ones who couldn't afford a PS4 or Xbox1. I thought that it was just a technical problem with the older consoles, but after Rockstar stopped giving PS3 and Xbox 360 players double money weekends and giving everything to only the PS4 and Xbox1 people, I realized that Rockstar had went to shit and is now starting to act like Activision. They're not as awsome as they were years ago. Just wait, their next game's going to be GTA again.

Fuck Rockstar. Sam Houser can suck my dick.
>>
I hate the amount of hackers in this fucking game. 50% of the players I try to kill have godmode.
Like someone else said, there's shitloads of Chinese who play and most of them speak zero english, which is annoying since this game requires interaction with each other.

It's not hard to steal a jet in the first place, and unless they added the lazer or whatever it was to pegasus, paying for a jet is retarded if you don't legitimately like flying one in GTA. Most jets you can buy aren't armed, and I never had a problem with those.

No.
>>
>>339677491
>Most jets you can buy aren't armed
But you can buy one that is armed and its a pain in the ass.
The only way to reliably kill a jet is with another jet.
>>339677526
They've added a bunch of shit but most of it is superfluous and overpriced.
The heists were fun on the first couple of runs.

You can also steal a fighter jet for free easily, you'd have to either be either an idiot or a SA nostalgiafag to buy a Hydra.

The only irritating problem I have are jet-shitters raping the lobby. Also doing certain VIP work which requires a helicopter makes it harder with many jets in the air.

Rockstar basically took advantage of PS3 and Xbox 360 players and used them as beta testers when it came to online.
