Why is GTA IV so blurry on PS3 and only runs at 540p?
>>319400689
Who cares? Who's even playing these machines anymore? Get with the times, grandpa.
because CELL
>>319400775
I always play a generation behind because the games are cheap as fuck by then.
>>319400790
But gta v looks fantastic.
>>319400689
2 different times of the day?
gta 4 had a shitty blur filter instead of antialiasing
you can turn it off on the pc version
>>319400689
It still looks good
>>319400689
Stupid question.
it's blurry because it only runs a t 630p
>>319400962
Doesn't gta on the consoles use an absolute horrid type of post processing as anti aliasing method?
>>319402010
FXAA or 4xAA?
>>319402010
>>319403275
360 uses 2xMSAA, PS3 used the horrendous nVidia-exclusive Quincunx.
>>319400689
Good times
The PS3 had the shit version of multiplats. Just like the Xbox One has the shit version this gen.
>>319400897
>being this poor
>>319402010
It did on PC as well, you had to toggle the "definition" option to get rid of it
>>319400962
That's what happens when developers learn the system, compare the first and last game from any generation of console and you'll see a big difference.
>>319403793
>that horrible port
>>319404010
Nevermind was thinking of GTAIV
>>319403793
>The difference between a $1000 PC and $299 console
You can't even deny that either, this was back in the day where a set up to run those GTA IV mods like that cost a fortune.
>>319403793
back when gta IV got ported you needed a fucking ridiculous rig
the optimization is GARBAGE
>>319404669
It was like 2 years ago, a midrange could have run that shit easily
>>319404890
Icenhander still makes a modern PC rig struggle to hit 60fps.
>>319404669
>PS3
>300$
Yeah right
That shit cost 599.99$ at Launch
>>319404936
Icenhancer is garbage, that was a normal lightweight enb
>>319405040
Fine, $399. Remember GTA IV didn't come out when the PS3 launched.

>can run gta 5 at 50-60 fps
>gta 4 still struggles to maintain 40
>>319400897
i feel the same anon
>>319400689
Looks like shit on both consoles.
>>319406010
nope
>>319406010
Yeah it's the jaggiest looking game I own as well.
>>319406228
i just reinstalled gta 4 on a whim and that's what i'm getting man
both games at 1920x1080, mostly high settings
Because every multiplat sucks shit on PS3 with a small handful of exceptions (Catherine is good, Vanquish is okay, Dragon's Dogma's not noticeably worse than it already is on 360). And GTAIV just doesn't look good/perform well on anything, really. The PC version can be made to look really nice but it also runs like crap.
>>319404936
>Not Building your own PC
>hey i think i'll play gay tony again
>gfwl
oh well
>>319406592
google xliveless
>>319406010
It's ridiculous how bad this game ran. So glad the PS3 days are over. The technical limitations are fucking shit. Liberty city was too fucking small.
Why GTA IV was so comfy bros?
>>319407000
Because it had really nice details. All those small communities. Dat feel Broker had.
>>319401419
This.
It's not even a selective post-process filter like FXAA, it's literally just a blur filter that blurs the entire screen.
>>319406286
After all the patching RS done it runs 100fps maxed out (and my PC can't handle GTA5 maxed). Something is wrong with your system or you installed unpatched non-steam version (not sure if it exists)
Theres actually a blur option on PC, so i assume they turned that on to make it run better.
I still can barely run it decently on my good PC, so i have no idea how the expected it to work on that generation of consoles.
>>319406010
yeah i dont know how they managed to fuck it up so bad
its been 7 years and it still runs like absolute fucking dogshit on newer PCs
>>319407454
>Something is wrong with your system
Probably AMD
>>319404883
>>319406010
GTAIV runs pretty decently if you turn down some shadow settings that you won't even notice. I mean yeah the optimization IS shit for having a graphical setting that does almost absolutely nothing other than destroy framerate.
>>319406010
It works fine now quit ya bitching
can't speak to vanilla, but i played eflc last summer and it ran swimmingly.
>>319410267
work ya damn nag
who cares? the human eye cant see more than 30p anyway
>>319406010
It's terribly optimised on all platforms.
>sub-HD resolutions on consoles
>18-25 fps
>absolute lowest settings
Its not like it ran like a dream on any system.
>>319403793
Now let's see how good the people look on PC.
What's the point of modding everything else to ridiculous levels if one of the main things will still stick out like a sore thumb?
>>319411015
>I'd rather the whole game look like shit than just the NPCs
Nice logic retard.
>Can run GTA5 on very high settings at 50-60FPS
>GTA4 maxxed out can only run about 30-40FPS with some drops to 20FPS in rain.
I don't get it
>>319400689
Because their engine was still pretty new and unoptimized back then and people always forget that last gen consoles have 10+ year old mid range hardware
>>319407000
oh comfy it was
>>319406010
>>319407708
Pretty much.
I have both games. GTA V runs beautifully with most high setting on, etc.
GTA IV i have to nit and pick every little thing to get a little more fps while trying for it to look acceptable. Fucking unnaceptable.
>>319411675
GTA 4's environments actually look real nice when the brown filter is thrown out
>>319411285
Neither do I, I get great fps when maxd
>>319411285
some of the graphical settings do absolutely fuck all aside from making your fps completely rekt if you turn them up
>>319411536
Well Max Payne 3, Red Dead Redemption, Table Tennis , GTA V ran fine but GTA IV is just a piece of GARBAGE
R* just doesnt give a shit about their highest rated game
>>319400897
Save for a PC and pirate
>>319413242
>tfw no red dead redemption on pc ever
thanks for reminding me
>>319413242
Are you stupid? GTA IV was their first complex game on the engine. Table tennis was technically the first but of course a fucking tennis game would run fine.
>>319415785
Im not stupid Anon
RDR was in development since 2005 just like GTAIV
Yeah theres a big difference between urban area and desert landscapes but even Euphoria is laggy in 4
>>319403793
PC = 1FPS
PS3 = 60FPS
>>319400689
The 360 was a beast, that's why. The PS3 was a overhypes piece of shit that within 9 years never delivered on half the shitnit promised. The 360 stomped the shit out of basically everywhere.
>>319406010
Same. I actually wanted to go play EFLC but I just can't get it to even STAY at 40fps. GTA V stays at steady 60 however.
Nice job Rockstar.
>>319400689
IV was made for 360 first and then got a shitty port to PS3
V was programmed from the start for 360 and PS3 simultaneously
>>319413667
>what are emulators
sooner or later you'll be able to play it at 4k 60fps.
