San Andreas; the game that was always fun.

Chucked in gta4 just the other night. Game engine was good but it just didn't have that fun replay value of San Andreas…

Although shotgunning drivers in the face is still pretty fun.

looks like an exciting story for once! however, it also could be taking the 'setpiece' path and showing all the best parts through cutscene...

Also really keen to see if it FINALLY gets away from the all-missions-are-favours-for-people-you-dont-like-and-who-manipulate-you-and-are-usually-batshit-crazy-and-probably-usually-die-anyway-even-though-you-wish-you-could-have-killed-them-10mins-into-the-game

Only recently started watching Burn Notice... and straight away thought 'this is just like GTA!'

they said they need more time.

Dear all,

Today, we have an official release date to share with you: Grand Theft Auto V will arrive in stores on September 17, 2013.

We know this is about four months later than originally planned and we know that this short delay will come as a disappointment to many of you, but, trust us, it will be worth the extra time. GTAV is a massively ambitious and complex game and it simply needs a little more polish to be of the standard we and, more importantly, you require.

To all Grand Theft Auto fans, please accept our apologies for the delay, and our promise that the entire team here is working very hard to make the game all it can be. We are doing all we can to help ensure it will meet if not exceed your expectations come September – we thank you for your support and patience.

Yours,

The GTA Team

meh i can wait.

:banana:

tell that to GT5

hahaha ^this

i'd rather them take a few more months to have a well made game, than release a broken game early/on time

hopefully the R18+ classification rating is all sorted and running by then

R18 is here. Itl all be g.

In saying that about GT5 though.... It was still not even half as good as forza 4 rofl. They focused on graphics rather than hardcore gameplay. GTA is a massive game though so it takes a long time to polish it. GTA IV was secretly just an engine tester haha GTA 5 will be amazing. However im a bit sketchy of the whole you play multiple characters. I miss having 1 character that you can eat heaps and get fat or go to the gym and bulk up haha

I know they arent into PC ports, but maybe theyre planning on doing one same time as release?

OR (and most likely)

theyre working with new Dev tools

Thats exactly what I was thinking, however if they say they are still polishing the console version then I wouldn't count on it.

It sucks for us PC players who usually have to wait a year after console release..

From a financial standpoint it would make sense for Rockstar to dellay the release for PC due to massive piracy of the game once its out on PC

What I am confident about this time is that they would have Ironed out a lot of porting issues and ineficiencies for the PC release.

LOL yeah right. the ports are getting worse with each release... San Andreas was bad, GTA4 was an abomination. same engine, so it might be a bit better, but still run like balls i reckon

If you compare performance with the first release and the latest patch there have been massive improvements. GTA5 will basically just GTA4 with new content so im confident this port will run the same or better than the last.

If it runs worse on console than GTA4 - which has a terribly bad fluctuating framerate then I would be concerned.

I agree the PC releases apear to run slower on PCs, but remember you are most likely doubling the resoloution from what consoles nativly run - PS3 and 360 only run GTA4 at 1280x720 and the earlier releases at standard TV res.

Fingers crossed it's not a disaster, eitherway I will be buying it and potentially optimize certain features myself as I have done with GTA4

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
