Why exactly was GTA5 less good than GTA4?
>>
I'd say V was better overal, but GTAIV made a far stronger impression. It was a next-gen game that felt like such. It felt new and advanced.

Unlike everything else that has been released in this cycle, which has been pathetically underwhelming.
>>
it wasn't

that looks good anon, good taste
what mods are you using ?
im playing Gta Iv right now too
>>
Empty world
Shitty story
Lackluster characters
Dumbed down physics
Dumbed down driving mechanics
>>
>>334603719
God dammit after all this years a simple mod make a game looks better than next gen shit.
>>
The dumbed down euphoria engine was bullshit. It was god tier in red dead redemption and max payne 3. what the fuck happend
>>
>>334604101
IV was better than V in almost all facets, but to be fair V wasn't a next gen title so of course it didn't feel next gen.

>Empty world
How ? The City is detailed, you can enter many interiors, activities/ side quests are everywhere
>Shitty story
Opinions but The antagonists are better than in any gta,
>Lackluster characters
Niko, Packie, Kate, Roman, Dimitri, Dwayne, Jacob are all luckluster characters ?
>Dumbed down physics
are you talking about Gta 5 ?
>Dumbed down driving mechanics
that'd be gta 5
>>
It wasn't, GTA IV is the worst in the series by far
>>

Don't forget about

:(
>>
>>334604912
I think V was better in almost everything, except that it lacked the wow-factor like IV and RDR had
>>
>>334603719
the overrall feel compared to gta4 was shit
>>
>>334605303

As for the empty world, he refers to the vast expanse of the map populated by rocks and grass that go virtually unused.

As for physics, in GTA IV you could shoot weapons out of people's hands, popping them in the leg would make them stagger and fall. People also didn't die when you shot them in the foot.

GTA V was more popular and therefor worse
>>
>>334603719
Because they focused more on online jewing than on single player.
>>
>>334605303
I'm pretty sure he's talking about 5, seeing as how the thread is
>Why exactly was GTA5 less good than GTA4?
>>
>>334608419
This. Gta 4 online was more fun with less stuff while the single player gave you the lasting impression
>>
IV's story was basic rags to riches that's worked just fine for the series in the past, sure it wasn't "wacky" this time around but SP was still fine. V's SP is fucking worthless trying to get you to care about some fag who dies five minutes into the game (Brad) and all the heists except the first one are stupid gimmicks.

>boring forgettable story
>flavour of the month radio selection
>toned down destruction
>cinematic linearity in an open world game
>>
it was better, i know this is bait thread
>>
>>334603719
all I know is they really fucked up the physics and dumbed them down for some reason

thankfully I have the PC version and can just use a mod that adds that glorious euphoria back
>>
>>334607839
is this vanilla?
>>
>>334609592
Seriously? You can add it back?
>>
GTA5 was way better.

GTA4 probably had more TECHNOLOGY but was ultimately a disappointment.

not necessarily add it back but someone wrote a nice script that really mimics it well

>>334609742
i really wish i had a nice PC to play this game on. I like it but i feel like max settings and 60 fps would make this game so much more comfy and enjoyable.
>>
GTA4 might've been received better if it was in any way close to San Andreas, but it wasn't. Started that popular trend of the sequel being vastly inferior to the previous game.
>>
>>334603719
I haven't played V but IV gets extremely boring after a while.
>>
>>334609869
This is such a great mod
>>
>>334603719
it had to sacrifice a lot of Tech to improve visuals while being released on 8 year old hardware

i cnat wiat for the first next gen gta, wonder how much they improve physics, car destruction and the city look

My friends have it on console and it's ok, but it really shines on PC. One of the best ports imo, they really did a good job with it
>>
>>334609878
If you want it for comfiness, just don't bother and get Sleeping Dogs instead.

You probably though Ending C was satisfying, didn't you?
>>
>>334609592
It's the same physics engine. It's just a barebones version because of last gen.

I hate the genre but that doesn't make any sense.

What mods are in the OP?
>>334609592
What mods fix this?
>>
They gutted the physics and made it an online focused game instead on singleplayer like GTA always has been.

Next GTA would probably be an MMO.
>>
>>334603719
The two main points that really put IV infront of V for me are the driving and the story.
I'm not saying that a story has to be all serious and dark, but V story was just boring. If they're gonna do a humorous and satirical story, atleast go completely overboard with it.
And the driving in V is just terrible, No enjoyment in it, might aswell be driving in a Saints Row game
>>
>>334609941
SA is a meme.

>>334610674
see
>>334609869

>>334604680
gotta make room for them graphics, gta v is just a glorified screenshot machine after all.
>>
>>334610825
>go completely overboard with it.

That's what Saints Row did and it turned to shit. More than usual, that is.
>>
>>334604680
Best part is that GTA made infinitely more than those two combined so say goodbye to Euphoria forever.
>>
>>334610753
if by out you mean party then i dont do much anymore since my girl is kind of jealous, but what i do know is that the club music is dominated by, as always, the current popular pop music, and current iteration of electric music, be it techno dubstep or what ever is the new hot shit

where the fuck do you go where this dosnt apply, fucking local getto party?

I've been saying since release day that gta v isn't even a real game, it's a joke being played on us by rockstar.
>>
>>334609878
What are your specs? I run it on high at 80 fps with a 750 ti and fx 4300.
>>
>>334603719
It wasn't. GTA 4 is borderline unplayable.
>>
>>334609941
Fuck off with this shit

SA was a clunky peice of shit with absolutely terrible graphics even for the time. Go back and play 4 now and its still stupidly fun, you get things that happen once in a million times because of the euphoria engine, thats just never happened before.
