GTA V PS4 Bug Completely Downgrade "Graphics/Visuals & Overall Presentation": GTA V PS1/PS2 Version

A nasty bug in GTA V PS4 completely revamp graphics/visuals comparable to that of PS1/PS2 games, even worst than that.

[Neixus]

Hmm, still not as bad downgrade as Watch Dogs

[Raiz]

lolzz are you sure about it? the title says the graphics/visuals downgrade is comparable to ps1 and ps2 era

[Neixus]

So just because the title says so, that means it's true? I mean, the bug makes it look like it's on ps2 level, but you believe it just because of the title..?

And my comment was just a joke, seems like you didn't get it ;p

[bouzebbal]

i dont know you but my PSone games never looked like that. the writer obviously never played on it

[SolidStoner]

nothing new here these kind of bugs can happen to all games, and it may never happen to you (I never saw it)

And that title is misleading, making a problem out of nothing!

[Gamer1982]

It basically removes the textures.. Probably corrupted them somehow.. Thats why a re-install fixed it.

[TitanUp]

if psx graphics looked like that back in the day games now would totally be on a different scale.

[Dee_91]

Yea mines does something similar when internet is bad on ps3 version too.Its a rendering issue

[frostypants]

I doesn't look anything like a PS2/PS1 game. It's still high res. All it looks like this glitch does is eliminate all the texture maps. PS2 games had texture maps. The comparison made by the author is kind of ridiculous.

[SonyWarrior]

this glitch happened to me on the ps3 version before hasnt happened to me yet on ps4

[mikeslemonade]

but it's still 1080p, so it's all good!

[XboxOneX]

I have seen multiple streams from Twitch and a lot of the times PS4 games always have this issue. Or maybe its the twitch stream? When you guys get this issue come up check to see if u have the streaming enabled by accident and disable it to see if that fixes it.

Watch dog character model graphics are much better than gta v.

Just sayin...

[WitWolfy]

Agree to disagree.

[HammadTheBeast]

World is much smaller however,and the environment looks off at times.

Still good looking tho.

[A2X_]

You're actually right, especially NPCs, they look good up close. GTAV is the better game however, obviously.

[LamerTamer]

After playing both on the PS4 I would say the graphics are better in Watchdogs. In GTA V it is more sparse and the lighting isn't as good. Look to the distance in GTA V and there is serious geometry culling going on to the point where there is a blurry texture where buildings should be. Character models look last-gen and the game in general has a flat "cartoony" look to it. WD looks more real. Of course this is not saying which is the better game but graphically GTA V certainly has some remenants of last gen still showing.

[NerdStar7]

Sick! I hope R* make this as a optional feature, I would love to play GTA V with San Andreas graphics. I don't know why, but just would.

[explicitbaron]

Don't know if you're being sarcastic but I would play GTAV in San Andreas graphics after beating it in Current Gen graphics. Love retro graphics.

[NerdStar7]

I would too, don't know why I got downvoted for saying that (I guess they're all graphics snobs).

[Fizzerd]

Ah remembers me of the good old GTA games.

[Ripsta7th]

The new Gta5 was pretty fun , you old people are just nostalgic of the old games u guys used to play

[KwietStorm_BLM]

??

[Plagasx]

"You old people".... Those are some fighting words right there, son.

[JWiLL552]

GET OFF MY LAWN!

[Cam977]

Don't click this article. Waste of time. It's literally just a but where some textures haven't loaded.

[eezo]

you are calling it as just some "TEXTURE" http://i.imgur.com/omLsvGU....

[ion53]

Just some everything hasn't loaded

[sungam3d]

"Grand Theft Auto V on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One is looks marvelous, the development team at Rockstar Games worked really very hard to match the life in fictional Los Santos City to be as realistic as possible."

Annnnd stopped reading.
Was this written by a 5 year old?

[LordMaim]

WTF and No

[BigBosss]

Same exact thing happened to me and my friends while playing online together.

[MultiConsoleGamer]

Clearly just a bug and I am sure they will fix it.

[Bloodjunkie]

Still looks better than The Evil Within ;)

[SaffronCurse]

I remember seeing this when playing gta3 on ps2.

[ctmaudi]

Cant be PS2 quality, its still 1080P, the holy grail that defines graphics.
*facepalm*.

[kingPoS]

This bug reminds me PS1 early days when textures were optional. Good times man, those were good times!

[u4one]

Haha. I had a nice one where all the walls in michaels house turned transparent as if it was clipping really bad. You could see textures and culling of environment geo since you could see right through the walls. Recorded a game clip of it... can't embed images for some reason but heres a link to a still.

Incoming the 1% are here the trolls this time the Xtrolls

[Dyldog69]

No problem on my ps4. Must be a lie.

[BABY-JEDI]

Where is the other bug that upgrades the graphics to 4k & 60fps? Now that would be cool.

[OutcastMosquito]

As much as I like this game, I've noticed that the PS4 version doesn't look much better than the PS3 version. The only noticeable differences are the lighting, first person mode, better resolution and more grass. The game even has worse FPS at times than its PS3 counterpart and not to mention, the EXCACT same amount of pop-in as the last gen version. The so called "next gen" version of GTA V is evidently rushed and I hope I'm not the only one that notices very little change. I expected so much more from rockstar.

[IaussieGamer]

I swear some of these articles should never get the time of day

[Tzuno]

if Ps1 had those graphics then i will jump from a car.

[PersonMan]

I do not have this problem on my PS4, therefore it's not a downgrade. Stupid title.

[Shineon]

Could be dynamic resolution lol jk

[big_dom_part_2]

Jesus fucking christ, who writes this bollocks?

[Orionsangel]

I've had this problem with the PS3 version.

[Dizzydrifter1]

Damn those PS3 graphics look awesome in 1080P !!

[All_Consoles]

Yeah these console sure are "next gen"
Can't even run this last gen game at 30fps

[KillerResistance]

That actually looks like an awesome texture dlc to have, GTA V PS2 edition. Idk if anybody else agrees, but to me it looks cool

[RosweeSon]

I'm gonna have to fish my ps one out again I must need glasses if it ever looked anywhere near that good even gran turismo 2 haha, ps2 me thinks. But hey it's a glitch not like that whole game is sloppy or buggy like that, just think of it as halo anniversary mode.

[ReturnToSanity]

Typical Sony quality merchandise.

PS4 runs the worst with COD and Unity of all platforms. Let this be a lesson to all of you not to buy into E3 2013 hype.
