    The thought of returning to Los Santos in ultra-glorious supergraffix is really tempting, but then I think of playing through that story again and it just... nah, I'm gonna need more content before I come back to GTA V.

    I hope they release some single-player content in the coming year.

    Early reports- Should be able to get extremely good FPS @ 1080p on most gaming systems these days.

    they are showing off 4k @ 60fps on an i7 with two 980s but hinted that its overkill.

    nvidia reccomends a 760 for highest settings @ 1080

    I have a GTX 760 :D

    Day one patch is 53 megs.

    the Single play vs multiplay option window when you run the program- is NOT two seperate exes but a switch on one exe (Ala Mojolovesbuttz.exe -windowed -incognito).

    The exe is in the preload- the gtalauncher file is it- you can just rename it should you wanna get weird. however the server that controls launch time wont let you run it. Also- files are most likely missing from that 53mb day 1 patch.

    Early reports on mod-ability seem good- but the interaction between that and gta online could prove quite an issue.....

    Also they found a list of launcher error codes and it looks like offline mode is a thing. Which is good.

    My 980 is coming up short at 1440p with Dragon Age Inquisition and Crysis 3, but those are two extreme examples. Hoping it murders GTAV but I wouldn't be surprised if it's not quite enough.

    Single, Player? What are these words? Story? What?

    Far as I'm concerned GTAV is purely a multiplayer game to me. I think I played maybe two hours of the campaign in the original release before I spent hundreds of hours in multi.

    SP was a ton of fun, but I don't care to do it more than once. This is going to be for MP with buddies for me.

    We've spoken about it before, but it's just the best time putting a 2k bounty on a pubbie, and then seeing who of your 8-16 people in WANG can kill the guy first. Leads to epic chases.

    Also if not mentioned - there is a your mp3 radio station confirmed. AND- it integrates your music with comercials and djs if you want-
    It may not be the Spotify integration we were hoping for, but Rockstar is letting players make their own radio station using music files on their computer. After putting copies of song selections into a specific folder, you can listen to them on the Self Radio station. An auto scan will identify new songs as you add them upon starting the game.
    Players have a few different options for listening to these custom soundtracks. You can play them sequentially, shuffle the collection, or have Rockstar integrate them into a radio experience complete with commercial breaks, station IDs, bumpers, and banter between DJs Cliff Lee and Andee, who you may remember from Lips 106 in Liberty City Stories. In the pause menu you can choose whether you want to have the songs play in the order you have them in the folder or to let the game analyze the collection and build a playlist order.

    stuff on recording and director.

    Amazing. Wonder if it integrates a playlist, or if I have to point out files. I would kind of want to get the in game stuff in there too, I like the music they play for variety. I was driving around in the PS4 edition the other day, and it was on the spanish channel, and an autotuned guy started singing Royals by lorde in spanish and it was super sureal.

    fake edit: oh booo, other people riding with you can't hear your custom music though I bet. It actually sync'd the offical songs before (at least in the next gen versions)

    Yeah, I have something like 20,000 MP3s, so it can be a bit of a chore. But it has to be perfect.

    I had a set of music to which I played Test Drive Unlimited. Might go dig that out. Crystal Method (Vegas) and... BT (Movement in Still Life)? That shit worked for me while driving around Hawaii.

    Played GTA:SA with a mix that was only 1996 or earlier. Was pretty cool.

    According to Rockstar, the recommended specifications are based on hardware that can run the game at 1080p, at 60 frames-per-second. For that, Rockstar suggest a Nvidia GTX 660 2GB or AMD HD7870 2GB.

    If true- the max payne 3 team (that deveolped ported this as well) is literally the best pc 'port' team ever. Steller news for those NOT on the bleeding edge.

    Note, it doesn't say what graphical quality of that 60fps at 1080p, just that you can do it with that hardware... Interesting that a 760 can run it at 4k at 30fps though. I wonder if its just untextured blocks.

    MP on PS3 was all sorts of wang based fun. The races especially were several calibers above pugging. Both in skill and shenanigans.

    I'm actually really looking forward to the multiplayer shooting missions actually being fun. Playing these on PS3 either meant who-can-press-L1-fastest simulator 2014, or by turning off auto aim turned my ability to kill anything into fluffy bunny territory.

    Anyone heard the word on having sessions be first person only or similar?

    Your bubble that you maintain spawns fewer things than others. If you wander into another bubble, goodbye frames I suppose.

    That seems like a bad way to do it? They've confirmed that's how it works? Why scale up and not down?

    We don't know exactly how the "zones" work, but basically your local client has a bubble of stuff it spawns, when it collides with someone elses, we don't know who or why "wins" and takes ownership, but theres a ceiling to what already exists in the area, its easier for one side to control, than to share. We know the server doesnt process this, its client side. This is getting way to broad and theoretical otherwise. So yeah I'm kind of talking out my ass. A lot of it is "logically you would need to do x" with a good amount of speculation thrown in.

    At a basic design level, if a higher spec player wanders into a lower spec'd players "zone", you can keep whats spawned there as a lower density and everyones happy. But it's problematic when a low goes to a high specd's zone, you cant just despawn things, or ignore them due to desyncing issues. You could default new spawning to meet the requirements of the LCD specd player nearby for sure. Not sure its necessary for a server to set itself to the lowest spec'd player connected however.

    It could be online is set to X, and its the responsibility of the player to maintain settings that work within that confinement. If the X is less than the minimum setting for singleplayer, it should never be an issue. Note, that wildlife is still not in GTAO, something that I hope changes for the PC version. (hunting could easily be a nice minigame for people like darts).

    edit: I nerd out over this stuff, it's all really interesting to me. Eve has detailed information about how they handle all of this kind of thing in 3d space, and its pretty incredible. It's very detailed how it works, and you can end up doing things like abusing it to remain invisible to other players.

    Those recommended specs are a bit awesome.

    Minus the 4K stuff I'm not too surprised. I'd have to figure that your average gaming rig (even one built a handful of years ago) probably still has better specs than the PS4 or Xbone.

    Now those 4K specs on the other hand can only be the work of some sort of Devil Magic.

In his latest video Vanoss had the exact same idea but Wildcat intentionally crashed into a building to stop it from happening.
