They’ll fix this eventually.... right?

If you think the Devs behind this turd are able to do so dream on.

Don't hold your breath...

That scared the FUCK outta me, lol.

 

[Excess]

I'm sorry but this tweet below is far more indicative of the self-indulgent, smug, and condescending attitude attributed to a release that I have ever seen from a game developer. This makes Druckman look like a humble saint.

I was caught out as well.

I never wanted to see Rockstar fail, so i hope at least GTA 6 will be strong. GTA means too much to me in my life.

Sorry bro, Driver 4 is coming and going to eat their lunch!

 

[a multicultural team of v]

Part of me almost hopes this shit ISNT fixed by the time 3 gets released on PSNow, I am torn between wanting to experience this shitshow and wanting my first replay of GTA3 in 15 years to be quality.

modders already doing some stuff, that terrible rain screen filter has been fixed

Rockstar releasing dogshit quality game for 60 bucks knowing modders will bugfix their game within 48 hours for free is a 4D chess move.

Then shut down that mod and include the fix in the game as their own.

They had past 12 years to fix gta iv... and they only made it worse... and they were a better company when they fucked that up lol

Just saw someone claiming you can no longer rob stores in Vice City like you could in originals. Can anyone confirm or deny? PS2/PS4 version had a trophy for robbing 15 stores and it's gone for "definitive" edition.
EDIT: debunked, you can

Also, I still can't find an answer whether cars can get dirty in San Andreas or not. It's a thing that was absent in mobile port.

Little collection of remastered textures for attention:

Just fuck my shit up, fam.

It seems that they didn't have time to double check all these. This looks very rushed and that font in the second pic is really bad. Rockstar should have given them more time.

We can all shit on Grove Street Games at this point but this shows enormous ineptitude on Take Two's part in my opinion.

Take Two went ahead and published this in this state. It needs another 6 months at least to clean it up and it needs a different team to work on the characters and models.

Rockstar - I mean allowing a game with the source code available to be uploaded to their own launcher. Did they just get a repository and click publish without even checking? It says they oversaw and co-developed this?!?!?

"we get the rare chance to see the studio – along with co-developer Grove Street Games – in a retrospective mood. With the games reaching their 20th anniversary, now felt like the right time to be nostalgic. But that’s not the only reason Rockstar decided to remake its games. There was another goal, too: preservation.

“It’s a way to maintain the titles for the next decade-plus without having to rip out our hair every time there’s a crash bug that we were having problems fixing because there are some terrible old tools,”

Strauss Zelnick believes there is reason why remasters from his company may perform better than the competition.​

Take-Two's top executive has spoken about remasters, saying what separates his company's games from the competition is a focus on quality and making sure the remaster feels like it's taking advantage of the new hardware instead of standing as a simple port.

What we've done differently than the competition is we don't just port titles over," he said (via VGC). "We actually take the time to do the very best job we can making the title different for the new release for the new technology that we're launching it on."

It's still ok to shit on Grove Street Games. It's their work. They made this.

At this point, I want to purchase GTA Definitive Edition just to see what kind of bugs and glitches I encounter and laugh my ass off. I'm dying of laughter from watching all these vids.

I'm thinking the same thing. Really torn right now.

 

[V1LÆM]

The lack of fog makes the world seem very small:

i know

the game wasn't designed for modern hardware. instead of a remaster we should've got a full on remake that took into considering modern technologies. that would require a whole new map redesign.

 

[V1LÆM]

I'm thinking the same thing. Really torn right now.

don't waste your money. if it ever goes on sale then maybe or once physical copies come out buy it second hand but save your money and just have a laugh at the screenshots/videos in here.

of course it's your money to do what you want with but rockstar shouldn't be encouraged to keep doing this kind of shit. give them your money and you're basically saying you're fine with this quality of game.

 

[TheBomb]

I have no idea how to run a company, but I don't understand. They make tons of money.

Seems like nothing extraordinary though

 

[Dave_at_Home]

I was just watching this on YouTube. Yes, I agree with everything he has to say here. Although I am still enjoying it, it is a soulless remaster. The entire aesthetic has been stripped from these games in favor of generic Unreal 4. Just sad honestly.

Dog is the lead programmer.

 

[Solarstrike]

They were trying to make the character look funny. Not sure why people are triggered lmao

 

[Banjo64]

So this is what happens when you employ people based on a ragtag bunch of pronouns instead of looking at a CV.

 

[*Nightwing]

Dog is the lead programmer.

And clearly the talent on the team.

Not his fault though, game looks great if you are colorblind and don’t fully grasp physics

 

[hemo memo]

One look at that picture and it becomes very apparent why most of the jokes in the games were altered.

 

[chromhound]

Someone Photoshop them as clowns

 

[Majormaxxx]

The sad truth

Rockstar, N****** D** and Bioware are not the same anymore.

 

[amigastar]

Grove Street Games are like

"Why the hate?"

 

[Rocco Schiavone]

The funny thing is that most of the work was done by AI and reconstruction algorhythms and they had not even the time to correct the spelling errors.

AR Guitar

I wouldn't blame them for the disaster. Take 2 knew that such a studio couldn't do a decent job. They wanted a quick cash grab.

It's a very small studio and the workload in the time frame they gave them was probably too much. That said, some of the graphic design work is amateurish.

Does anyone have problem where you have to really press A hard in order to run on xbox series controller?

WHAT? I honestly thought there was no run button, jesus lol, guess i gotta press harder.
