I get why people want to have higher traffic density and I agree for the most part but at some point, they have to limit it for gameplay reasons too. Having a shit ton of cars would probably look amazing but would also be really annoying when you're trying to drive around to do a mission.
Have you seen / played the Xbox One version ?
Would be great if this gets confirmed.
It would also make sense. Both are native 1080p / 30, yet PS4 having the more powerful (40% higher Flops + almost twice the pixel fillrate + considerably higher texel rate, more main memory bandwidth, etc) would theoretically allow more car models on-screen.
On the other hand, it might not make sense, if higher density traffic is a CPU-bound thing.
Edit:
Ah I see, nevermind my post above then.
Why would that be great?

Did anyone see this vid showing traffic? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4JfNvn6U_iQ&list=UUIZoo0cQseDLaEyElo3cFrA

If the options are option 1: one system gets higher traffic density or option 2: NO system gets higher traffic density to maintain "parity", it's "great" that option 2 may not be the case.
You have to turn on downloads in standby mode by yourself. It's not activated in standardsettings.

I can still see them.
what are we supposed to be looking at here ?
I have no fucking clue.
Looks great to me.

Reflections, maybe? I'm not sure.

Fair to say that the rumors of GTAV's traffic density being low were greatly exaggerated.

popup of smaller items still seems to be an issue, not as bad as on PS4 but there still is popup of smaller objects

i can confirm i saw two distinctive white truck type things (with different loads) then saw more than one in the opposing flow of traffic, over the next 3 minutes.
With the variety of cars in the city it would be unrealistic to expect no visible caching, I imagine a meeting at rockstar where they allocated out bandwidth budgets to all the things that needed continual reading.
From last stream....
I have realized what we're looking at here. It's the best AA applied to power lines in a console game of all time.
On a more serious note, I think it looks good, and the reflections are pretty nice considering the scope of the game.

This is reassuring, I was starting to get worried. Colour me happy.
I actually think I'm more excited about GTA V PS4 than I was about the original release last year.
Rockstar shutting down streamers faster then light
But shit looks amazing. So smooth and that stable framerate <3 Double dip redeemed
24h to go. I forget how awesome GTAO was with friends. Can't wait to play it again
GTA is really a worldwide phenomenon. It's just crazy how much this game will sell again

Cool, can you point out anything else bad about this video?
They are too preoccupied wondering whether or not if it can rather than if it is actually practical. Of course it's possible, we've seen it in the trailer and some gameplay, but it would get annoying if their was constantly traffic. Like fuck who cares

Can you have neon underglow on bikes too?

I think he was referring to the super jump cheat!
Cool. No, I hadn't seen that footage before.
Indeed.
From E3 reveal trailer:
I too feel more confident that perhaps we might see that much traffic at peak during rush hours on the freeway. At least under certain conditions such as, not waiting for traffic to spawn but driving with or against traffic into or out of the city.

That was also on last gen version, no?

First new version trailer non-bullfootage confirmed.
BTW. I have a theory that the faster we drive, the less traffic we encounter.
Saved a local copy in case Rockstar takes it down. Very nice vid.
Yes it was, I think the pic is just to show off the reflections, which look great.

It's not a trailer..But anyway streams have been up all weekend showing off non-bullshot footage..
I live by this theory in real life.

PS3 does show quite a lot there too but it's definitely higher.
It's usually 20+ cars on PS3 too and I just tested it 3 times on different days at different times (about 12, 3, and 6pm) and basically doing what that video did, you usually see 25-35 cars on PS3. On that PS4 video I lost count around 40 cars and likely missed at least 5-10 to the sides.
My general feeling is density is about 2x the PS3 but that means, places where you saw 2-3 cars before (e.g. certain streets downtown LS at 8am, much of south and east LS) maybe PS4 still just sjows 4-6 cars. But places where the PS3 could show over 20 cars (downtown LS 4-way intersections at noon, rush hour on the freeways, Vinewood boulevard at night) the PS4 seems to show 30-50 cars.
At least that's my general feeling or impression based on a few hours of streams. And car variety in traffic must be at least 4-5x better. It's significantly better.

I just watched 3 different streams (all of them running fine for more than 15 minutes) and they all got taken down after less than one minute. I guess my girlfriend is a rockstar agent.
JB Hi Fi have it for $69. That's where I am buying.

I think this might be reset to default values on major updates, because I'm absolutely certain I downloaded stuff in standby mode before, yet I just had the download stop as soon as I put the console to sleep, went to check settings and wasn't enabled.
What happens though if my console loses connection to WiFi (it often does) while in standby ? I assume it won't attempt to reconnect, right ? Bullshit ! I'm sure connection will be lost the instant I stop looking and I'll wake up to a " downloaded 120kb/48GB" message tomorrow :-/
Couple things:
Traffic density in that video looks perfect
R* needs to hire better car modelers: we've reached a rather satisfying level of geometric detail on cars for the series, but most are just so ugly and disproportioned.
And this just occurred to me.. the absolute best stealth new feature of this ps4 remake: remote fucking play !
Editthingss like cars aren't reflected on wet tarmac? Bummer, I think they were on ps360 although maybe only when they got much closer to the camera. Or im just imagining things.
Kinda ruins the effect either way.

That's PC version you're seeing. It's alright though PS4 and X1 look to have enough traffic to the point where it wouldn't get annoying.

yup canceled my FC4 preorder as I know this is going to get all my time
