Can we ask anyone else who left Rockstar a decade ago what they think?

You can do, but no doubt they'll only reply with the same common sense anyway.

 

[saintjules]

No thanks, not playing anything where i drive cars and flight stuff with 30fps. It's fucking 2025.

I would not rely on this guy to give accurate info. 'think' is the keyword in his answering.

I'd be surprised if the Pro can't pull off 60, or in the very least, without some comprises.

 

[DirtInUrEye]

You need to understand that the CPU in these consoles is once again the achilles heel for high refresh in what are increasingly very CPU demanding games. Maybe if they purge the NPC population, you may just about squeeze in a 40fps mode. But it'll make downtown look like a covid lockdown.

 

[//DEVIL//]

Just give me 60 fps version on the pro even its full hd and no ray tracing . 30 fps suck.

 

[Spiral1407]

This should be obvious. I don't think any of their games have targeted 60fps on console, even on PS2 which was known for its many 60fps games.

 

[V1LÆM]

I'll put up with it on Playstation until PC then I can play with unlimited FPS. can't wait to play it at 360fps

 

[Astray]

So the article is about a guy that doesn't know shit. Amazing.

Yep lmfao.

People are absolutely starved for GTA6 news lol.

 

[Represent.]

Thank fucking god. Please be right.

The last thing we need is the dumbing down of everything in this game just to hit some stupid ass framerate.

 

[Killjoy-NL]

As long as it's a rock-solid 30fps, I'm fine with it.

 

[AGRacing]

He doesn’t know anything. But I’d take 40 on Pro.

 

[TheRedRiders]

I love how everyone keeps trying to rinse the shit out of this topic for months now, and we have nothing credible in terms of leaks... in fact there was one, the GTA artist or whatever who claimed they were hoping it will be able to run 60 on console and then she quickly removed it.

I think if anyone can do 60 FPS on an ambitious title, it's Rockstar - this isn't some eastern developer with 2 programmers after all.

 

[thatJohann]

I mean, even if it ran at a constant “cinematic” 24fps, you would all still buy it anyways.

 

[DonJimbo]

PS5 Pro purchase cancelled

 

[Gaiff]

"former"
"expects"

lets assume this ends up true, do you think PC version will run any better?

Yes, it will on a better machine.

 

[Dr.D00p]

Zen 2 isn't good enough for 60fps open world games at any sort of decent graphical fidelity.

 

[rofif]

Good

 

[DirtInUrEye]

You're why Rockstar make PC wait.

 

[Bert Big Balls]

"AI upscaler thing"

"or whatever"

 

[kikkis]

I don't really buy that cpu would be the bottle neck. With gpu driven rendering cpu doesnt need to stretch itself and it's not like gta does something super intensive on cpu side. With ecs patterns you can have thousands of units of npc.

 

[lh032]

Yes, it will on a better machine.

of course but how many PC gamer has this "better machine"? how better?
Will it perform as good as PCMR expect to be?

i highly doubt it. PCMR has higher expectations how a game performs on a high end PC.

 

[HogIsland]

I'm not double dipping on this one. See you when the PC version is ready.

 

[TintoConCasera]

of course but how many PC gamer has this "better machine"?

I do.

how better?

Much better.

You were using games made on the RE Engine as examples. Nice try I guess but everybody knows that engine sucks for open worlds. Meanwhile RDR2 runs like a dream on PC and I expect no less from GTA VI.

 

[Gaiff]

of course but how many PC gamer has this "better machine"? how better?

Considering the consoles are in their 5th year on the market? A lot.

Will it perform as good as PCMR expect to be?

Last two games did.

i highly doubt it. PCMR has higher expectations how a game performs on a high end PC.

Rockstar games scale very well though. Look at GTA V on consoles and then on PC. Same for RDR2. If history is anything to go by, the PC version will perform very well. RDR2 is one hell of a looker and runs beautifully on a wide range of machines. Not the least bit worried about GTA VI.

Long as the frame rate is stable, everyone should be fine, including consoles.

i think you still do not understand what i'm trying to say here.

is it going to run better compared to a console? no shit obviously.

is it going to run well as expected from a PCMR? well............i'm not sure about that.

We shall see, maybe you are right and GTA 6 ends up running PERFECTLY on PC.

 

[DirtInUrEye]

CDKeys or Epic giveaway for me, in ten years. That's the price that I put back on Rockstar for their PC double-dip delay shenanigans.

 

[Brucey]

It's going to be dumbed down to play on series s.

 

[Cakeboxer]

Your TV has Nvidia frame gen tech called motion interpolation. Thank me later!

No thanks to soap opera effect.

 

[HogIsland]

I want to play it but I'm not doing the usual Rockstar bullshit this time. I haven't even finished GTA 4 or 5 stories yet.

 

[Catphish]

I won't buy it until I have a PC that can run it at 4k/60, at high settings. If that takes a year or two or three, so be it. I can wait.

 

[lh032]

I do.


Much better.

i have seen people complaining about PC performance whenever a game runs poorly on console, RE engine or not.

its a yearly thing now.

RDR2 and GTA VI run amazingly on PC. It’s all subjective, but GTA VI will probably have the most impressive graphics on the market and those will commensurate with high hardware requirements. If people bitch that their potato systems cannot run it (and they will) they will simply need better rigs.

I think the hardware demands for what the graphics deliver will be reasonable.

 

[Rush2112]

Im sure the ps5 pisser will fix it

 

[Represent.]

It's going to be dumbed down to play on series s.

That too. So we dont need even more dumbing down to hit some stupid framerate target. You want 60fps wait a year on the PC version.

 

[lh032]

i actually hope the game was optimized well on S, so theres a chance the game will run 60fps on ps5 pro lolz

 

[DirtInUrEye]

You must have forgotten how GTA5 ran at launch. Almost constant sub 30fps.

RDR2 runs great tho

 

[Gaiff]

It’s miraculous it even runs on the PS360 with their 256 and 512 MB of RAM. GTA V is very much an 8th generation game that somehow manages to run on 7th generation hardware and not good hardware.

 

[Represent.]

I hope the game runs at 10fps 480i on Series S, I hope its a complete afterthought and the priority is clearly to maximize the PS5 Pro version at 30fps

 

[DirtInUrEye]

[FoxMcChief]

Fine by me. Then again, I’m just not excited for GTA like I used to.

 

[Idleyes]

Console gamers: 30fps ain't bad. We cool.

 

[TintoConCasera]

i have seen people complaining about PC performance whenever a game runs poorly on console, RE engine or not.

Bro you are grasping at straws here. RDR2 was their last game and it's an example of not just good but great optimization on PC. Anything else is cope.

 

[FoxMcChief]

lol, LMAO even at those that were expecting it to run at 60fps

Wait till the PS6 and next Xbox for the "remaster"/next-gen edition

PS7 at the earliest. I imagine GTA6 will be on at least 3 generations of consoles, like the last one.

 

[Rocco Schiavone]

So the article is about a guy that doesn't know shit. Amazing.

You mean like Digital Clownry where the so called tech enthusiasts know shit about game coding??

 

[Pedro Motta]

I played GTA 5 at 20 fps on PS3, I will survive.

 

[sncvsrtoip]

40fps mode on pro would be nice

 

[Pagusas]

God game industry journalist are hacks.

 

[Giallo Corsa]

PS7 at the earliest. I imagine GTA6 will be on at least 3 generations of consoles, like the last one.

Well, now that I think of it, GTA5 did release on the PS360 initially so you got a valid point, thing is, next consoles are going to have ML so that's kind of a moot point friend since the technical aspects/differentiations between the consoles of yore and the upcoming ones are going to be big (and not only due to "raw power" but again, due to upscaling techniques).

As for me, unfortunately I can't do 30fps anymore due to OLED judder, OLEDs have been both a blessing and a curse in my experience (I should have gone for a mini LED)

Cheers

 

[FoxMcChief]

Yup. Frame rate isn’t an issue I will have. My days of PS1/N64 gaming have mentally strengthened me to look past frame rate.
