5-10 more patches and I'm in!

100%!

I was fully excited to have access to SA on gamepass, I’ve not even launched it yet…

R*, sort your shit out guys, FFS. I can’t believe you let this embarrassing port slip through your QA, are you guys OK over there?

 

[eastcoastkody]

this is a start. besides bugs and texture issues. The HDR seems to be broken. Some NPCs new faces look worse. The aiming is somehow worse than the originals. Performance wasn't smooth. And they killed the socal vibe, color palette.

if those things got fixed i would really play this again

 

[Hypereides]

But it's fixed.
Why still be angry?
Since patches have been a thing it's been this way for well over a decade now.

I dunno about you, but I would've prefered if it didn't need to be fixed in the first place.

EDIT: you know what, after some further consideration, I concede. If you enjoy these games then I have no reason to question that.

 

[Draugoth]

They fixed the shirts so that's a start

 

[Tazzu]

Hopefully the physical version will be cheap by the time they fix this.

 

[saintjules]

They fixed the shirts so that's a start

Yeah and the godawful rain

 

[rkofan87]

So which is going to be fixed quicker: this or Cyberpunk?

gtade

 

[rkofan87]

dam i might grab this now.

 

[Panajev2001a]

Well, that’s on the platform holders. This industry is an embarrassment in quality control.

No, quality control is fine. Trust me, I am very confident QA’s reported each and every one of those bugs. Three of the 5 QA’s I manage (ok, one I do not manage anymore , but he was rightfully promoted ) come from the AAA game industry and they would never miss these things.

It is very likely that someone told them “we must ship the MVP, submit submit submit!!!” and ignored them.

 

[MeatSafeMurderer]

But it's fixed.
Why still be angry?

Because it's Nov 30th, not Nov 11th.

 

[Skifi28]

I wonder if there's any performance improvements.

 

[SJRB]

2010 gamer: The game got patched? Awesome!

2021 gamer: Omfg all of these patches!! Uuugghhh

Fucking entitled gamers, not having the same standards in 2021 as they had in 2010.

 

[Knightime_X]

Because it's Nov 30th, not Nov 11th.

At least it's not Nov 30th 2023.

 

[Rocco Schiavone]

Hopefully the physical version will be cheap by the time they fix this.

Don't give those lazy f***s any money. At least buy a used copy so they don't earn a dime from you.

 

[MeatSafeMurderer]

At least it's not Nov 30th 2023.

If that's your standard for goodness then it's no wonder the industry is fucked.

 

[Knightime_X]

If that's your standard for goodness then it's no wonder the industry is fucked.

Personally, I'm thankful for games to be able to come out faster than to wait another 2 years near bug free that can't be fixed later.
Pick your poison.

 

[Moses85]

5-10 more patches and I'm in!

A Full Remake and i am in…

 

[AntonioBanderasXsX]

Wait are these patches ignoring Switch version?

 

[Danjin44]

 

[R6Rider]

His videos are always great.

 

[TheDuskwalker]

 

[Moses85]

Wait are these patches ignoring Switch version?

Switch Version is already maximized in Performance

 

[Drew1440]

This should be a 120hz game on PS5/XSX/XSS. Locked 60hz on XBO/X1X/PS4/PS4PRO

It woudnt surprise me if the game didn't support multi-threading

 

[intbal]

It woudnt surprise me if the game didn't support multi-threading

I don't know if I'd accept that as a valid excuse.
It's still the same game world with the same behaviors. It just has a new layer of GPU paint over the top of it. The CPU load shouldn't be dramatically different from the original games.
The originals ran at 30fps on a 733mhz x86 Pentium with half its cache disabled. The slowest jaguar core is still twice that speed. Also x86 with way more cache and tightly coupled to the GPU.
Even if the game only ran on a single core, they'd still have to mess it up pretty badly to not run every version over 30fps, imo.

 

[ripeavocado]

Tha game is still a mess, let me know when they fix probably by the 30th anniversary

 

[YCoCg]

Is there going to be a thread every week for this game? No wonder Rockstar let this out of the gate in this state, people will still promote it. As for the size of the list of fixes, it's still a fraction of the bugs fixed!

 

[Kev Kev]

something that is that broken upon release is just unacceptable. i wouldnt buy this, just out of general fucking principle

 

[Pantz]

Don't really matter how much they fix if the cutscene dialog is still censored/cut.
That bugs me most of all the problems.

 

[haxan7]

honestly I'm not interested unless they remake the games in a new engine, with modern controls that match GTA V. I plunked down $60 with that assumption. Rockstar lost a lot of trust.

 

[darkangel-212559]

Just ask the modders to fix your mess lol

They were fixing it and then Rockstar issued DMCAs. What a joke.

 

[Rocco Schiavone]

Performance is still ass.

 

[Chris_Rivera]

fucking hell man. a PS2 remaster having this many issues on modern hardware. what a joke.

Are these performance related? Being a PS2 remaster seems like a decent challenge, new engine and all.

Can you still stretch your car by turning back and forth? Shit was hilarious.

 

[CapnAmaricrunch]

the game is old and shit, thats the real problem, you cant polish a turd, if these games were free i wouldnt waste my hdd space on all three.

 

[Rusty Shackelford]

Performance is still ass.

Platform?

 

[Rocco Schiavone]

Platform?

Jesus people are lazy these days. Click the video and you know It.

 

[Vagswarm]

I'm guessing the massive success of Cyberpunk blew the door wide open for unfinished releases -- even worse than before.

 

[Rusty Shackelford]

Jesus people are lazy these days. Click the video and you know It.

Took you more time to bitch than answer the question.

 

[Kerotan]

fucking hell man. a PS2 remaster having this many issues on modern hardware. what a joke.

Isn't the dev like 5 people?

 

[Deerock71]

Switch:

 

[GreatnessRD]

I'm reading those patch notes and i'm thinking to myself "what the hell happened to them ever since RDR2 was released?"

Grand Theft Auto: Online

 

[TLZ]

So were these actually fixed, or like last time the rain was still white?

 

[Thief1987]

5-10 more patches and I'm in!

They will release 2-3 patches more in the next 1-2 months and call it a day.

 

[IbizaPocholo]

 

[Rob_27]

On GTA3 why does the gps keep telling me to go to a spray shop. Ffs.

 

[YCoCg]

GTANet have been sucking this games dick since day one, they tried to downplay how broken it was and now praise these patches as Rockstar caring and standing up for the community.

Rockstar are trying their best to fix this mess and are doing it pretty quickly.
Why do you guys lack forgiveness?
You all just want blood.

It shouldn't have been released in this state to begin with so forgive me for not wanting to praise Rockstar for being "caring and loving" us for fixing their shit.

You don't have to concede. Nothing wrong with having standards.

 

[lostinblue]

Definitive improvement?
