Why do we hate GTAV?

Cinematics over gameplay. Like a lot of modern games.

>all updates reduced to multiplayer content that you have to grind heists to be able to purchase, or drop some dosh in macro transactions. and no single player dlc. like a lot of modern games.

fix'd that for you.

several movies did it better, no-fun-allowed terminator cops and pedestrians who love to call police on you if you bump into them walking down the sidewalk. no way to outgun a cop brigade until their reinforcements slow down because they warp in via star trek bullshit, any car that isn't your character's personal forced car disappears if you walk to far away from it, no ability to change personal cars. the list goes on but the jist is, instead of improving on gta with graphics and QOL improvements they took out the fun and made you run missions if you wanted to "rampage" or actually survive a cop shootout.

There's nothing do do there except the story missions. No incentive to explore the map, side missions are useless and don't have meaningful rewards, money doesn't matter because you can't buy properties to live in you just get them, no point in buying or customizing cars since the mission will spawn only the default ones etc etc. No sense of accomplishment and progression at all.

It's just boring as fuck. It's the Phantom Pain of GTA

It's good, the singleplayer was enjoyable even though the story was a bit eh. Early GTA Online was fine up until heists got introduced, after that it became bloated. Certainly not my favorite GTA but a solid game nonetheless.

>>384988892
I have a legitimate question because I like GTA and I haven't played 5 yet.

What does >No incentive to explore the map mean exactly? I mean as opposed to exploring the map in San Andreas. There really isn't an "incentive" per se, it's just fun.

I wasn't a fan of the multiple protagonist thing, but I had a blast with the singleplayer.

It failed spectacularly at the most important and essential thing of all GTA games cheats.

>>384989264
Everything is centered around the main city, there are only a couple of uninteresting hick towns in the area around that so traveling is a bit pointless.

>>384989264
eons ago when game developers still wore mullets and knee socks, these types of games would have hidden items that would change the way the game played, we called them hidden items or easter eggs. Legend has it that jet packs and other such fun items once existed in the ancient time where fun rewards were a part of a giant world.

Not other guy but I get what he means I think

In SA outside of the main story, you have the gang shootouts, the big heist, flight/driving/boating school, homes to buy, drug run interceptions, races, hydrollic matches etc

In V outside the story you have 50 different collectables, random encounters and almost no side missions other than the assassin missions, property only unlocks more money or more random encounters

>>384988102

the mods are ok
online is ok if you mod in money because of all the cars and use them on race tracks, otherwise good luck even getting half the stuff there is now without a friend

There are usually a ton of small secrets to find in GTA games. Not that GTAV is lacking in them, it just doesn't feel like the world map and its space is used as effectively as it could have been.

There's very little incentive to go past the city of Los Santos, despite LS only taking up 50% of the map. The entire upper half of the map is barely used in story missions, barely used in side missions, and only has a handful of activities for you to do.

There's not much interesting to see there compared to a similar GTA like San Andreas, either. Most of the top half of the map is comprised of mountains, mountains and more mountains. There's so many mountains, that there's not much room left for varied terrain. The Grand Senora Desert area of the game, for example, begins and ends faster than you'd have imagined it would. The desert area of the game feels like a tiny patch of land, and yet, there are several mountains nearby surrounding it that take up room and offer very little in return. Same with the forest area further up north. I get the joke there; thanks to deforestation, there isn't much forest in the real world equivalent of that area, hence the forest being tiny and having a lot of cut down trees. They still could have expanded how much forest area there was, though. You can do a hunting minigame and hunt animals, but the area to do so will have you standing right next to a major highway and several buildings, rather than deep in the woods.

Roads are also effected by this. There's only really one major highway in this game, that loops around the edge of the map.

Most of these mountains don't have much in the way of interesting things you can do on them on top of that. Mount Chilliad is back and at least has some things on it, and there's another mountain with a ghost easter egg. But otherwise, most of the mountains are just there to take up space that could have been better used for other things.

>>384989742
Oh come on, V has races, schools, sports like tennis, triathlon or hunting and minigames like darts or the taxi missions.

That's why they've been doing it since SA.

>>384990042
The game feels neutered and watered down compared to the things that came before it. There's stuff to do and see in it, but there isn't that much to do and there isn't that much to see, despite being the biggest game in terms of map size in the series to date. They went out of their way to add an extensive ocean you can grab a submarine and dive deep into. And yet, there's barely anything there either, aside from the tiny handful of easter eggs and some collectible nuclear waste that doesn't get you anything other than a trophy/achievement, unless I'm forgetting something.

All I just want is some single player Dlc

I had more fun mashing buttons to workout in SA than I did with most missions in GTAV

The Zelda effect in this series is fucking incredible. I can't wait until VI comes out and people start liking V.

>>384990072
I actually forgot V had those.
idk V is weird for me, I sometimes feel like playing it, I then have to force myself to play it, and when I do I have a really fun time and enjoy it.
Then after I've played enough, I still have to force myself to play it the next time I feel like it.

>>384988102
1. It's popular.
2. The cars don't control like boats anymore.
3. When you flip your car in the middle of nowhere you don't have to run all the way back.

The real reason is that 18 year old adult shitposters played GTA IV when they were 9 and didn't realize it was the worst 3D GTA game besides Liberty City Stories.

I couldn't even finish the singleplayer storyline because I was so fucking bored. There is nothing really to do besides the story either, some shit minigames like fucking tennis and yoga.

The multiplayer heists were a lot of fun but there's like fucking 4 of them and half the set-up missions are goddamn aids.

The loading times in multiplayer are inexcusable and there occur so often it's a complete joke.

Probably more but it's been a while since I played

I don't know about what others thought, but I found the story boring, I hated the fact it's focused on heists, i think the character switch is a dumb gimmick that makes the gameplay not fluent. Trevor is 100% cringe imho.
my favorite GTA is IV, and i know it's basically universally hated so what do i know.

GTA V is so easily the best in terms of content, detail, mechanics, and features that its not even close. You can literally edit the map at will, and record in depth kinos. You can alter the weather at any second, and increase wantedness by different levels. You can jump like hulk. You can slow down cinematic camera to a crawl. You can be ANY NPC, animal, story character, etc.

Online is much faster now and always full, and had passive mode with active npcs walking around (lol at SAMP). You can and will have races and shootouts in areas you never will ever again ever because it was a random user created game thrown in the roulette with rockstars verified and official content. There is an endless stream of content whizzing by you will never fully digest as if it was a million garys mod servers.

There are so many ways to take it slow, so many animations to take advantage of, so many ways to make things "comfy" outside of hectic missions, that machinima makers must have a fucking aneurysm taking it all in.

If you arent having fun its because youre a nostalgiababy who isnt even trying.

The game needs more people like you.

Haven't played the multiplayer since a few months after it was released. Did they ever add new heists?

And why do people even still buy shark cards? Back when I played I had everything I needed through regular play (helicopter + jet + car). Did they add new "OP" shit?

The loading times are garbage online due to their shitty Peer2Peer garbage. singleplayer loading is fine.

>>384997803
They somehow fixed it. It takes less time to go on SP and then on MP, than going to MP directly.

t. Playing GTAV on a 2011 rig.

Main objective of rockstar is online.
This is the reason why GTA V is fucked up.

>>384997876
>>384998084
See, going into SP first doesn't solve the issue. Sure that will make your initial loading shorter but that's it.

When you start doing heist missions or go to your appartment you hit loading screen after loading screen (often with disconnects mixed in) and that's what inevitably killed my enjoyment.

>>384990847

Don't ferget that the price is still 60 bucks, and has been that price since release. Not only that, but you can buy ingame currency via Shark Cards.

The singleplay in GTA5 was pretty meh, but it's the online and the way Rockstar treats its playerbase that is disgusting.

Found out they spawn in front of you when you go too fast.

GTA online

GTAV overall is just unsatisfying
>collect collectibles in VC or SA
>get money, unlock new gun/vehicle spawns, or gain perks

It's fucking bizarre how they didn't have most of the lobby bullshit done though your phone instead of tossing you into a screen where you're waiting for the game to actually start.

>>384996840
the stupid shit you want to do is no different than being online and just free roaming.

Cry all you want. What youre complaining about is fundamnetally not missing no matter how hard you want to cry and spin it. Bitch boy.

>>384998345

Base price is still 60 bucks, anon. It's 6 years old and they haven't lowered it since release.

>>384996727
online is literally SP content. You just have players instead of npcs. Same piss easy difficulty. Same zany lamar cutscenes with even more gangbanging. You fags are obnoxious.

>cops teleport to your location instead of patrolling the streets; they also spawn unlimited numbers

>the three characters were unlikeable to me, if they all joined a suicide cult at the end it would have made me appreciate the game more
>the story is very short, only 69 missions, with a couple of them being mind numbing filler (drive from A to B, do yoga) or scripted out the wazoo Michael Bay tier shit
>euphoria physics are almost non-existent
>map is poorly designed, the main city particularly where it jumps too quickly from one zone to the other
>car customization is useless without a garage to save your shiny new car; Rockstar apparently only wants you to drive the car they set you up with (or that ugly as fuck motorcycle)
>character customization is meh, you buy clothes but when you change characters you find them wearing other stuff which is annoying; still can't build muscle even though there's an outdoor gym on the beach
>character stats are pretty useless
>can't crouch for some reason

it was clearly developed around multiplayer which blows ass anyway. The single player is a one-and-done with very poorly written characters. The map was severely underutilized for its size

>>384998387
Online has jetpacks, gambling, pizza boy missions, vigilante missions, and fire fighter missions? The only thing I'd play online for is lowriders and even then I don't care enough to do that, give me more shit to do in singleplayer.

>The story is fucking shit. Ending C is the "canon" one, yet it feels so rushed. None of the bosses barring the billionaire and maybe Steve Haines feature enough in the story to make you care about them.

>Franklin is boring. His premise should've been something similar to Wei Shen's where he feels conflicted about staying loyal to the GSF or his ambition to become a more sophisticated criminal under Michael's tutelage.

>Michael is a literal cuck and his family are toxic.

the lowriders is why i play gtao without a doubt, theres an assload of customizatiom with those. I just roleplay as a gangster.

>water physics blow now
>gunfights are less interesting without euphoria, unable to shoot guns out of cops hands, people will rarely be treated by ems, or limp away when critically injured
>cops no longer arrest people and put them in cop cars, they just spray people up and get mad if you stand too close

Theres more i cant think of, yeah most of this stuff was pointed out in crowbcats video, but he hit the nail on the head as to why i dont like V nearly as much as IV.

my fucking god I wish they let you solo missions in online. I gave it another go last month and tried to finish a mission for Lamar. Kept trying for hours but retarded teammate would always die. I told him to just hide so I could do it myself and the cunt just left. God the load times alone make me want to kill myself
I guess its just another twitchbait game where you need friends to play

It's a solid open world 3rd person shooter with a fairly decent campaign. To me both GTA IV and GTA V are equally good but in different ways. GTA IV has great attention to detail, great writing, great characters, paid but standalone DLC Episodes from Liberty City that's two full length games, and it really feels like a GTA game working your way up through the ranks of crime in an unfamiliar setting. The online as dated as it was was fucking great, just hanging out and blowing each other up at the airport was a blast. However GTA IV is a very -very- clunky feeling game, combat is slow and methodical, the driving is a pain, barebones weapon selection and just getting around in general feels clunky or unpolished, but you can't deny those fucking great ragdolls. GTA V improves on all of GTA IV's flaws, tighter combat, better but mostly easier driving, playing on a keyboard feels great, and after all of the free content updates we have tons of weapons to work with. Everything in GTA V feels tighter and more polished but it's severly lacking in a good and well written story, well written characters, good attention to detail, realistic AI, content updates that are more focused on the online aspect of the game rather than the single player I.E no "episodes from lost santos" was never made, and the online is one of the worst if not -the- worst part about GTA V. It also has one of the worst Online communities I've ever seen in a game.

I wouldn't call either game better than the other because GTA V is the anti-GTA IV, everything that GTA IV did better GTA V did better and vise versa.

Even then 90% of the content is in the city

god damn this. I really prefered when protags were simple, cold and not overly serious, letting you self insert. They were just a window to this violent and ridiculous world of GTA. V tries to be a fucking HBO criminal drama shit by giving protags already pre defined story and character.
Niko had a fine balance between two worlds in my opinion

>up until like 6 months ago, animals would call the cops on you because animals were really just pedestrians with different skins

This is why for years you would be out in the woods "alone" do something criminalous and the cops would magically spawn on you

>>384999775
does you wife cuck you with the yoga instructor while slowly killing what's left of your soul? does your son steal your money to buy drugs and hates you? your daughter is a stupid whore and will suck dick and get penetrated on camera because she wants to become a star?
if any of those are true then i feel sorry not really for you anon, consider hanging yourself

>>384990024
The cops in this game are awful. It takes eight years to lose them.

>>385000056
I think the 3D universe protags were the best, I don't really care for Niko's "I keel but I do not want to keel" shtick

Old protags were literally brick walls though. They only started to give them some personality in san andreas. Some character developement is fine but V just went full retard

I won't say much about the story, I thought it was fine except of Trevor.
Online is a hot mess tho, you would have to do the final heist like 8 times or so to get access to the new content. And the matchmaking is awful, its the slowest thing on this planet and it will always pair you with 300+ ping hues and when one of them drops from a heist it kills the lobby entirely. Why?!
Online is only tolerable if you get hacked money so you can just forgo the grind and buy the shit you want

>>384988381
GTA IV was way more cinematic
