Title: Grand Theft Auto V DISCUSSION
Post by: Keihan on September 18, 2013, 10:22:40 am
So, who has the game? Which system?



I bought it for PS3. Only played for 2-3 hours so far, but it's already way better than GTA 4. Feels like last gen's versions of GTA (I loved the **** out of GTA III).


It's essentially GTA San Andreas with multiple characters that you can switch between, plus better graphics (and better camera controls/driving than GTA 4)





I was going to play the **** out of it for 2 months, then sell it along with my PS3/games towards a PS4, but I think I'll spend more time with the game. I'll likely get a PS4 in 1-2 years.

I was hoping someone would make a topic so I didn't have to.  :P

I've played at least 6 hours so far, and I have a list of things that I think about it. Keep in mind I am not a fan of the GTA series whatsoever, and have always placed it at the top of what I believe to be the most overrated games ever. The reasons I bought this one were because: I like the play whatever the most likely candidates for GotY are, so I can participate in those discussions, I wanted to give this one a try since the others I never played/cared for on release since I was always too young.

So here are what I believe are some of the pros and cons based on about 6-10 hours of playing.

Pros:

- Being able to switch between characters whenever is a really awesome tool
- The way the story switches you between characters at the beginning automatically by linking the characters' lives together is also awesome
- Characters (important or not) around the city always talk about the city as if they've lived there a long time. This seems like something trivial, but it's something I've never seen a game really do before and it's cool. It makes the world feel more alive/real. For example, they mention street names or areas and it sounds natural. I don't know why but I really like that. :P
- The voice actors are really great, and the interplay between the characters feels natural and at most times hilarious. From what I've played, Franklin and Michael are really well done. His family is, too. There is one character that I despise, but that'll be in the cons.
- Cover system works well, the shooting mechanics are also pretty good. Nothing outstanding here, pretty average. Although, the x that appears on your cursor to show you've killed the enemy you're shooting at is a really cool feature that should be in more games.


Cons:

- The little boxes that appear to tell you hints are in a horrible position. The text is also too small. I feel like they were trying to not be intrusive, but it's a bit over the top. It's way up in the top left, and at the beginning of the game at least, they appear while you're driving. Multiple times I had to look up to see what it was telling me and basically crash because I couldn't see what I was doing.  :P
- I'm still not 100% where I stand on this one, as it might be up to me to practice more, but the driving still seems messed up. At first I couldn't stop swerving, but they start you in a supercar so that could be why. It's gotten better over time, but it still seems off. I've always hated driving in GTA, and I have to say I still don't like it. This complaint is subject to change, though.
- The jumping mechanic is weird, and kind of hard to aim where you're jumping to. It also feels really limp, and you tend to randomly fall down if you touch things slightly wrong.
- Franklins friend is SO. ANNOYING. HOLY. Also, saying **** every other word is not funny. -_-
- The controls are weird. Circle for reload? Square for jump? R1 for cover? X for run is the worst thing ever. If X was cover, and R2 was run it would be so much better. The inability to change controls is also not cool. Luckily you can switch R1/R2 L1/L2 so you can shoot with R1 instead, but still. The rest are still messed up. I know those are 'classic' GTA or whatever, but they were never good then.


I totally missed stuff and I haven't played long enough to know if any of these will hold true til the end, but for now that's what I think.

I like it better than what I have thought of the series in the past, but it absolutely does not deserve the hype/scores it's gotten.


Title: Re: Grand Theft Auto V DISCUSSION
Post by: Keihan on September 18, 2013, 11:28:56 am
The controls do bother me a bit, too. X for running? **** that ****.




Scores for a lot of games are blown up, but this game IMO deserves at least a low 9.  Rockstar put in A LOT of work into this game. I also was a huge fan of GTA III, and this game feels like that, but on a much grander scale. There is so much to do/see.


Title: Re: Grand Theft Auto V DISCUSSION
Post by: DoubleGunz on September 18, 2013, 11:50:03 am
I also forgot to mention that the game doesn't look that great. Although, after playing TLoU I guess it's expected that everything looks bad.  :P


Title: Re: Grand Theft Auto V DISCUSSION
Post by: Keihan on September 18, 2013, 11:53:54 am
Well, games of this scale never look that good compared to more linear games. That said, this game + RDR still look great.


Title: Re: Grand Theft Auto V DISCUSSION
Post by: DoubleGunz on September 18, 2013, 12:07:33 pm
I remember RDR looking great for its time, but this... nah. There are texture pop ins and the characters look pretty stale. The cars look pretty nice, but nothing like actual racing games. Oh well, good enough I guess. It's not bad enough that it takes away from the experience.


Title: Re: Grand Theft Auto V DISCUSSION
Post by: JabbaScrub on September 18, 2013, 02:22:57 pm
Keep in mind this is a massive map on an outdated console. That probably took its toll on the graphics.


Title: Re: Grand Theft Auto V DISCUSSION
Post by: DoubleGunz on September 18, 2013, 02:56:10 pm
Of course. A game like inFamous 2 is pretty big, but it looks better. Same with RDR, even. Still, the only thing that bothers me is when people say the graphics in this game are "amazing". That's funny.

I've made it more than 3/4ths through and I'm kind of disappointed in the main story :/ I just don't feel emotionally attached to these characters like I did in past gta's... It might be because there's 3 characters but idk... Also this game seems easier than past gta's as well

So this was why the site wasn't active yesterday.  :P  I was thinking of watching a playthrough of the game on Youtube. This is one of those games that I probably would have gotten if it came out for the Wii U even though I have a 360.

Speaking of the 360 version, did anyone in the topic get that version?

I strayed from the main story for a bit and played one of the "?" missions that appear on the map.


It was badass. I found a guy advocating marijuana use, and he let me smoke a joint. I was playing as Michael, and Michael hallucinated so I had to fend off Aliens with a Gatling gun.
I'm not sure what Rockstar was going for with this mission because the guy appeared to be trustworthy. Even after Michael hallucinated, the guy seemed genuinely in shock. Marijuana doesn't make people hallucinate like that.


Still, that was a fun mission.


Title: Re: Grand Theft Auto V DISCUSSION
Post by: JabbaScrub on September 21, 2013, 07:13:55 pm
Yeah, IGN posted a video of that mission. I don't get it either.Anyway apparently Mt. Chillead has some UFO easter egg and there's a UFO gathering mission.

I got it yesterday afternoon (ps3 version). Played till 2am. Stayed home "sick" today... so yeah, I like it.

It does feel like an older gta game to me too, which is good. I didn't like gta4 at all. This one feels like San Andreas on steroids.

The driving is expected. It's always been kinda crappy, but you always end up getting good at it with practice in my experience.

I'm about to play now so hit me up if you get online. :)

Basically... everything in GTA is done better somewhere else. The shooting is done better in pretty much every other shooter. The driving is done better in most racers, like NFS/Burnout/etc. The open world is done better in Fallout/Red Dead. Voice acting/story is done better in The Last of Us. Physics/control is done better in inFamous/DMC/any action game. The graphics are also ok, done better in most other modern games. There is also way better music in just about everything else, because there's no outstanding OST in this. It's just a bunch of garbage music thrown together.

GTA is just a compilation of average things, (aside from the voice acting/story telling mechanic that is done very well, but still out classed by TLoU) with tacked on over-the-top immaturity to ensure the casual players want it.

There's not much that's special about it, and I can't see it appealing to anyone other than people who want to buy 1-3 games a year and just want a lasting experience. Essentially the same appeal as CoD. :/

It's seriously one of those games that gets praise that I simply do not understand. It doesn't deserve it whatsoever. The only thing it has over most games is value. It's full of so many things for $60! Yay! It's just that in order to have that, it sacrifices the quality of everything. It's all just... passable.

He makes a valid point though, because he's, well....spoiled.

Post by: The Krazy One on October 04, 2013, 08:30:15 pm
That isn't what DG is saying. What he's saying or wants however are reasons why it deserves to be called a good game by the masses.

Fun is subjective to anything really. An example would be that if I thought Superman for the Nintendo 64 was a fun game. We know it as a horrible game but someone having fun with it wouldn't exactly make it a better game than it already isn't.

Hopefully you get where I was going with that because I know what I mean but I don't know how to explain it that well.  ???

Alright, I agree with you... But you can't really compare GTA to a shooter or a racing game because GTA is not a shooter or a racing game.

Quote
The open world is done better in Fallout/Red Dead.
So, if we disregard your first two points then here's your argument that actually would make sense. I've never played fallout but I have played Red Dead and I'd love for you to explain to me how the open world is better in that game? It's not bigger... There's not more to do... so what makes it better?

Quote
Voice acting/story is done better in The Last of Us.

More of a preference thing but alright.

Quote
Physics/control is done better in inFamous/DMC/any action game.

What do you mean by this exactly? lol If GTA was about a demon killing, dragon fighting ninja/superhero then I'd agree with you but it's about 2 middle aged men and a 20 year old thug.

Quote
The graphics are also ok, done better in most other modern games.

Ok, show me again what games you're talking about? exclude all extreme fantasy world games because you can't really compare those graphics to a realistic world game.

Quote
There is also way better music in just about everything else, because there's no outstanding OST in this. It's just a bunch of garbage music thrown together.

Like wtf? haha They are meant to be real world radio stations... what kind of music do you expect lol...

Sure GTA is outdone in some categories but all your comparisons are of games that primarily focus on one thing. (such as racing, shooting) I don't know how you can even compare them. GTA is hands down the best game of it's kind.

Disclaimer: in no way am I saying GTA V is a bad game. I have plenty of good things to say about it, also. I just don't like how so many people ignore/look over its flaws.

How dare ye Turbo me.  :D

I don't feel like doing that so I'll just pick stuff out.

"Alright, I agree with you... But you can't really compare GTA to a shooter or a racing game because GTA is not a shooter or a racing game. "

I think we're both kind of wasting time on this one, and neither are necessarily correct. Its combat is primarily shooting, and its transportation is primarily driving (which you do a LOT of) so they are important aspects. They're not bad enough to ruin the game of course, but I was just mentioning how a lot of other games do both better. They aren't 'exceptional' as some people claim every part of GTA is.

I've never played fallout but I have played Red Dead and I'd love for you to explain to me how the open world is better in that game? It's not bigger... There's not more to do... so what makes it better?

As far as this goes, I guess RDR isn't exactly a better open world. I just like the setting better. To me, constantly being in a city gets tiresome and repetitive. GTA V is an improvement over the others with the added mountain/country areas, but even those areas feel like there's nothing to do in them. I want to point out that just because there's 'more to do' doesn't mean anybody actually does it. They're just filler/gimmicks. Golfing, getting a haircut, etc. are things you will do once or twice and then forget about. They become pointless points on the map. That's not truly 'so much to do'. Fallout or even Elder Scrolls do open world muuuuuch better, though.

I also think you should try and separate the writing from the voice acting. The voice acting in TLoU has so much more emotion put in to it. It feels real, it connects with you, and it portrays the emotions of the characters on to you. In GTA V, they just have clever/witty writing, making the characters funny/likeable. The voice actors are great, yes, but I feel like there is so much more emotion put in to TLoU, or even Uncharted. There are plenty of games where it isn't just clever writing, it's the voice actors doing an amazing job at portraying emotions. Persona 4, RDR, Catherine, BSInfinite come to mind.

What do you mean by this exactly? lol If GTA was about a demon killing, dragon fighting ninja/superhero then I'd agree with you but it's about 2 middle aged men and a 20 year old thug.

The context doesn't really matter. Physics are done poorly in other games too. It tends to be the big open world games that fall short. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, GTA, etc. For whatever reason these games don't feel solid. Whenever you're running/fighting it either feels stale (ES/FO) or slippery (GTA). I don't know why, but a lot of people just write those flaws off as if they don't exist. They do, and it's very apparent if you play something like Dark Souls or inFamous. Simply running around in these games shows you how the others should feel. When you try to turn around/position yourself properly it's quick and precise. In GTA (tapping X to run is garbage by the way) when you try to run and then turn, it's awkward. The jumping is also horrible, if you barely touch things you just become a piece of stone and fall over. There's no excuse for that, it's just plain bad.

Ok, show me again what games you're talking about? exclude all extreme fantasy world games because you can't really compare those graphics to a realistic world game.

wot. The obvious answer is TLoU. inb4 'it's linear so it doesn't count hur hur' A comparison is a comparison. The character models/textures of basically everything other than the water and cars look... ok. GTA looks good at a distance. TLoU looks good at all times. Since I'm apparently not allowed to mention fantasy, Beyond Two Souls is another fantastic looking game that's about to release that is realistically presented.

About the music... meh, I guess it's up to personal taste. Still, it lacks that feeling of epic music that a lot of other games offer. Zelda/Pokemon/TLoU/Persona/DSouls have such amazing original sound tracks and they support the games mood, GTA feels bland in that category.

No good songs? Picky ****s

I'm not picky at all, I enjoy all types of music aside from gangster rap/heavy metal/most country.

GTA tends to have mostly gangster rap/hip hop which I really don't care for.

This is really an argument that neither of us can win because it's all opinion based... so let's agree to disagree  :D

Haven't had much time to play this game at all recently.... I haven't even "unlocked" Trevor in the single player mode yet.


Tried multiplayer a few nights ago, and wrecked everyone in a car race, but that was it.

He ran me over with his car so I pointed my gun at him. He then told me that it wasn't in my best interest to shoot him so I did it anyway.. but he also dropped a grenade and I died after killing him :( Then him and his buddy decided to chase me in his car :P so I used my grenades.

So yeah... you invited me to that mission that he was in so I figured he was your friend..
