I played up till the Trevor missions on the 360, then decided the game was so awesome I'd put it aside until the PC release (cause it would only be a 6-8 month wait, right?) so this time I'll be playing first person so it will be more 'fresh', if that makes sense.Who's going first person and who's going third person for their first playthrough?
I can't decide!

Will use that for shooting and maybe driving at times.
Driving is just not that great with it. I wish it was. Maybe a wider fov on pc will help it though, idk.

full first person, both walking and driving.
immersion
the gunplay aint FPS level nor is it meant to be so it just seems like a frustrating way to go through the game
that + coupled with limiting my fov and not being able to see how I customize my character = meh
its a cool novelty I guess and nice of them to add it officially after being modded into GTAIV
but ey, we'll pay it back by being shitty about mod support in V! gg rockstar

Somehow I feel like shooting on FPS mode is gonna be a pain in the ass too.

Didn't look that bad looking up free roam online sessions last night. Only time it looked awful was when they had some crazy hood scoop on that blocked the view. If I'm crashing all over the place on 1st person, I'll just switch to 3rd.

FOV was my main problem on PS4, I'm sure it will be a lot better with wider one.
If you are used to something like battlefield, as I am, it's less than ideal. Still, pretty cool that they added it.
I'm planning on upgrading sometime later this year, but I hope I can run things at respectable settings:
i5 2500k (4.5GHz)
GTX 580 (3GB)
8GB RAM
It doesn't help that I have a 1440p monitor. I'm thinking about just upgrading the GPU later this year. The i5 at that clock speed should last me a little longer.

Yeah FOV in first person on the PS4 is like 55°, it's crazy close.
First person is actually somewhat useful for flying, especially in the jet. The aiming reticule for attack choppers and jets has never been that great in third person.
It may be worth making sure your Steam account (If you have the Steam version) is linked to your Social Club account just in case the servers are being hammered tonight and this stage slows down.

I don't even see steam on that list.
Using a software to split the large MP3 file into individual MP3 files with the cue is the easiest solution.

Whelp, i guess i need to go to the store later and stock up on some caffeine and snacks because this train is going all night.
I was expect a 3am release at best.
I just checked and it does list steam and even GFWL on their for linking. Seems that it already knows my Steam stuff from Max Payne 3 / La Noire

I would never leave first person mode if it worked with track IR.
All of the above.
It doesn't. It'll only show up if you've already linked your account through Steam, in-game (which is why only those of you who linked it in MP3 can see it).

That would be the hopeful interpretation.
When Rockstar is asked:
"What are you doing to support modding for V?" and they consider the pertinent answer to be: "Our primary focus is making sure that nothing detracts from the online experience."
I find it difficult to take away that they will allow/support single player mods. If that was the case, why did they not actually say so? There is absolutely no reason. It makes no sense to not mention that you're supporting mods, when that is literally the question that is being asked, and you know it would be good PR.
Suppose we'll know for sure within the week. Along with reports on what's up with the sketchy sounding DRM. I really hope all this stuff's not garbagey.

You do know there are multiple FOV sliders, right? The first person customization is extensive. It's definitely worth giving a try IMO.
Also, didn't they say they aren't going to kill mod support? As long as your mod doesn't break the game

IMO, the FPS mode in GTAV was better than 3rd person mode. Added a level of detail to the world that I had never noticed before... Seeing NPC's facial reactions to you, the insane details of things at eye level, and so on, it really made the world more believable to me.
Also the 1st person mode was done with ridiculous care and you notice a lot of touches that you'd just never notice otherwise
The gunplay isn't great in either, but with the deadzone tweaks, I'd much prefer shooting in first person mode. But it's not nearly as good as a true FPS game that focuses on gunplay.

you won't regret it
especially not if the KB/M controls are suitable for free-aim and lack the input lag of the console versions.

I can't decide!
Certain portions of missions in the game might be pretty damn hard to complete in first person.
I always switch back and forth depending on the situation. Usually with interior firefights I quickly switch to FPS mode.

Totally agree. FP mode is now my preferred way of playing GTA V and will be in future installments as long as Rockstar offers it.
It boils down to marketing. They probably still need to figure out a way to release mod tools but block modders from creating mods that work online, so that way they won't have to patch the game on a daily basis, which requires a lot of man power. If they can't find a way to do that, then they will likely not release mod tools at all, and that is probably the reason they haven't mentioned it in the interview, because that would bring bad PR.
I am. I've also read somewhere that the PC version WILL support DS4/XB1 controllers. I'm still using InputMapper atm. Just download it, plug in your PS4 controller, and boom! It's recognized as a 360 controller with exclusive features like using the touchpad as a mouse, and the light bar indicator color changes to your liking.
