Could of at least listed the changes.

UltraNova3310d ago

Well..yeah...

Anyway, is it me or are we soon going to be consuming more time downloading updates rather than playing actually working games?

Ace_Pheonix3309d ago

PS4 does it all when I'm not playing anyways, so... no.

UltraNova3309d ago (Edited 3309d ago )

Yeah I know I was talking in general, while I do like this auto-download thing my HDD drive is filling fast so I guess all these 2, 3 Gb 'updates' won't stay unnoticable for long now won't they?

NobleRed3310d ago

They better fix the 1.08 downgrade.

St03310d ago

I can't tell the difference, but it does seem smoother in a fully packed city online now though

N0TaB0T3310d ago

These downgrades are typically so miniscule they don't affect anything other than the smallest details.

Just wait for the PC version, if it's that much of a loss.

chilopirrin3310d ago

So, the patch 1.08 definetly downgrades the graphics??

lsujester3310d ago

Why? The framerate is much better, and the difference in visuals isn't noticeable unless you just stop and really stare at details.

jeromeface3310d ago

Actually its very noticeable.. you must not pay attention.

Khronikos3310d ago (Edited 3310d ago )

Honestly, if you care at all about graphics get a damn PC. The console version of GTA5 is jaggy as hell with awful LODs. It is bad they made LODs even worse if that was even possible. OMG. They really should at LEAST fix that ftlog.

Start getting used to open world games looking like trash on a 400 dollar machine with off the shelf parts.

It's either that or they run like complete ass when they are last-gen games like this.

OpenGL3309d ago

If they're just going to downgrade the visuals, what was the point of re-buying the game on PS4? A lot of the new detail has been removed in the 1.08 update.

Sure the framerate is better now but there are noticeable differences in the visuals and they should at least give the player the option to choose the original visuals or improved framerate.

dantesparda3310d ago

I heard on Gaf that 1.09 only fixed the car deformation physics and not the POM/AF and other issues. But Rockstar is aware of it.

theXtReMe13310d ago

Good to know. I was playing today, for around 3 hours, doing nothing but walking around and looking at the visuals. The most glaring of issues, is the pop in and out of cars. It happens at about half the distance it used to and in a more random nature.

LOD draw is, easily, 1/4 of what it used to be. It draws just feet in front of you, whereas before it was about 10-15 feet. Also, there is pop in of certain high res textures, mainly on the larger metal power poles.

I also noticed quite a bit more aliasing at closer distances. There was aliasing before, but not to the extent it is now. The aliasing solution seems to do a great job with AA on closer objects, but drops off almost exactly where LOD ends.

Other than that, it still looks good with a fairly solid framerate.

Yep, they literally copied the one sentence of text from the PS4's "update history" section and made it an article.

Father__Merrin3310d ago

makes no difference, it's a great looking game anyway. games like this are best played on consoles anyway

starchild3310d ago

It's a great game on consoles, sure, but why do you say "games like this are best played on consoles"? All the past GTA games play great on PC.

Nwah3310d ago

What exactly makes it better to play on a console?

bloodybutcher3310d ago

Fact that HE plays them on consoles, i suppose xD

Cost of realistic looking movement.

lucasnooker34d ago

Rockstar need to learn that 12 years of work and 5000 employees doesn’t account for one persons opinion on the internet…

Profchaos34d ago (Edited 34d ago )

Oh and hundreds of millions of dollars in revanue to boot.

Lots of complaints about gta ever since the hd era started and yet it's bugger than its ever been with gta vi up to 180 million trailer views alone. The next game is shaping it be be another genre defining game

MetalGearsofWar34d ago

They already learned they dont have to actually make a great game

sagapo34d ago

The controls of RDR2 felt a but cluncky indeed, but it’s not as bad as some make it out to be. At no point did I get the feeling my experience with the game was held back or ruined by the controls.
But it can never hurt to optimize them a bit, sure.

Zhipp34d ago (Edited 34d ago )

I did accidentally beat someone to death a couple times. An unfortunate mistake but besides that I didn't have any problems with the controlls

jznrpg34d ago

Red Dead Redemption felt clunky at first but I got used to it fairly quick. I thought 2 was easier to control but it could be my experience with the first game helped me out. Great games

Profchaos34d ago

I wouldn't call Rockstar games characters clunky instead they feel like they move with Weight they are not twitch controls press x to instantly snap onto cover the characters instead move like a actor would ducking behind cover they are exposed while they get there.
