[ALL] Grand Theft Auto V

Dave should have a breathalyzer attached to his laptop so that he's not allowed to post while drunk.

I own a PC with a 24-inch monitor and an iPad. I don't own a laptop ... though I agree with that part about the breathalyzer.

I'll actually open this one on launch day and play online with you guys, instead of waiting until February :shifty:

Hey! I actually opened up and played Destiny last night. So zip it, cowboy.

Alright gentlemen (and Med), get your fancy hats and flip-flops ready. We have to throw a GTA weekend before the PS4 copy comes out, as a farewell to this version(of which the only times I've played have been the 5 times we've gotten together :shifty: ).


Flip-flops are required. Shirts are not. Big hats are a plus.

Body is ready.

Only thing that'll make me want to pick this up is if they rehauled Online.

I'll wait until I can get it either in some sort of deal or when the price lowers.

Not interested in paying $65 for the same game twice.

Likewise. I paid full price for Sleeping Dogs DE because I fucking love that game, definitely more than GTA5. GTA5 was great but not as good as I expected. The garbage incentives of extra cash in-game is not enough to entice me to get this day one. Hell, I still have tons to do in the PS3 version if I ever get around to it.

saw this article yesterday, def even more willing to pay the full price on release now, even if it will interfere with Super Smash Bros :bryant:

 

[Twigg4075]

Yeah, I think that FPS mode might push me over the edge. I was going to wait a while to get this but that is awesome.

But, I'm wondering if you can switch it on the fly? I would love to do on foot stuff in FPS mode but I don't want to drive in that mode.

I'm pretty sure you've always had the option to switch driving views for as long as I can remember in GTA games. I doubt that changes here.

Switching driving views is not the same as switching the entire view of the game. If it is that simple, great. But I know when CoD implemented that 3rd person mode several games back I think you could only switch during respawns, not on the fly.

"On PS4, you can touch the touchpad to switch modes between first- and third-person. There will be a few options to control when the game's in first-person and when it switches back to third - you can have it so that shooting is in first-person but it snaps back to third-person when you're in cover, for instance."

"First-person options are bogglingly extensive, with options for Assisted Aim, Semi-Assisted Aim, Free Aim and much, much more. You can set first-person targeting with third-person cover, or third-person targeting with first-person driving... the choice is huge. First-person (FP) street brawls feel more hilariously, violently wrong than ever. The FP combat would even lend itself to a Punch Out-style dedicated mini-game, if Rockstar desired. That's the point: Rockstar, bizarrely, were in danger of becoming trapped in the open-world genre of their own creation, forever tied to third-person conventions.

The FP mode, at a head-dipping, momentum-fuelled step (yes, you can toggle this too) moves Rockstar into the most lucrative arena outside their own: the first-person shooter. Battlefield Hardline might be a first-person cops 'n robbers squad shooter that apes GTA, but Rockstar's game *is* GTA, now liberated to tackle any genre it chooses."

Well, that is awesome news!
