Yeah ok maybe but the people playing are mostly in cover almost all of the time, using a shitload of cover and using hardlock/softlock. Ugh
It could come out on tuesday...

Forgive my ignorance, but what is hardlock/softlock?

I'm guessing it's that distinctive thing R* games have about being able to put casual for an autoaim feature or normal aiming mode so tapping it locks you to the closest player. And softlock may be when it just assists a bit when youre aiming the player.
Not sure.
Pretty much. Hard lock is GTA style lock on aiming, soft lock only locks onto targets in the vicinity of the crosshair.

free lock = no help with shooting a NPC/player
Soft lock = some help with hitter your target
Hard lock = shooting gallery going from target to target, always hitter your enemy.

That insidegamer.nl "quicklook" or foreplay as they call it ( haha so funny right ) got taken down. Lol R*. You guys kinda suck, because they went to the trouble of recording and editing it, they had a ton of responses saying wow I wasnt paying attention to this game earlier but now Im gonna buy it..
I dont understand this idiocracy.

I'm normally a console dude. But I got this for pc because i think it will be a great place for MP and since consoles are reaching their end closer and closer, PC version will outlive it in terms of community.
But console users will outlive me for half a month lol

I know. I may buy the GOTY edition on consoles later on, who knows.
Also, getting the game for 30 with a movie and the bullet pen is a steal. So yeah.
GTA IV on PC still has a pretty solid online community.
I can always find a good match with plenty of people.
Not sure what it's like on consoles.

Forgot to mention, installing the game to your HD increases menu load times, A LOT.

Well...just the main menu.

Is it worth it otherwise?
I don't understand the crew numbers limit:
they said it was 250 but the vidya broke it so they change it to 300 and that these are private crews?
what's the oint in private crews that looks public and the only difference is the members limit?
My crew has just passed the 100 members!

The reloading animations look incredibly detailed, they've come a long way since the miming animations in GTA 4. Hope this carries over to V.

I mean I have tons of space, so for me, yes. I haven't really noticed other than menu load times.
Played the first chapter...not crazy about the pop-up words or the constant video-pixelation/color shift effect in the cutscenes, but the gunplay is incredible.
I've been bored of shooters in general, so this is the first time I've played one in probably 9 months or so, but I absolutely love the weight of the movements and the bullets. Much like Diablo III (not to compare the two on most levels seeing as they couldn't be more different), the developers have really nailed the feeling of your attacks actually damaging your opponents. Love the forcefulness, and I'm even impressed with the scripting in combat.
Looking forward to playing a lot more.

btw, you can dive without bullet time in MP, right? I hope so at least.
EDIT: The answe is yes. Nvm my mental implosions lol.

The sad thing is, animation is one area that's barely moved forward in the last 6 or so years, even as pretty things have gotten prettier and shiny things have gotten shinier. The animation system EA used in FIFA and BF3 was big step in the right direction, but R*'s integration of Euphoria is like a revolutionary leap forward. Sadly it's still going to be the exception rather than the norm for some time yet.

I have the space as well, I'm just curious if there are any other weird issues you've noticed from installing it. I'd heard about some texture pop-in happening and was wondering if installing helped with that.

I'm really stupid. I just realized the MP maps have a day/night version.

Actually, yeah I forgot that. Before I installed there was some minor pop-ins. I hadn't noticed any during the cut scenes since I installed.
While that's true for in game stuff, their cinematic animations leave a lot to be desired. Maybe I'm just spoiled by Uncharted's way of doing things, but they might as well still have the mitten hands they way everyone gestures with them to try and convey emotions. It's downright hilarious at this point. You see one guy in a Rockstar game this gen making a emphatic point and gesturing wildly, you've seen them all.

Really? Scweeeet!
Well I cleared about 28GBs off my HDD to install the game but I probably won't do that until after a few rounds of multiplayer with you guys and Rockstar!

Are there detailed descriptions of the PS3 version's performance? I think I missed it. Or I don't remember.
Nothing detailed. Two posters have come in and said that it looks like it's 720p and the framerate is solid in game, with a couple hitches in cutscenes. The picture of the crew jacket a few pages back was from the PS3 version. You can see the button icons at the bottom.
