Its too bright, too clean looking. Don’t remove the fog. Its part of the atmosphere! GTA V is a great game but I prefer this one. Its so grounded and realistic compared to all the others. From the atmosphere to the movement. Even how the cars handle are more sim like! I love this game. Good job none the less.

GTA IV

[@Piizzachuu]

@@QUIGGS2001 I mean V. I was sayin I prefer this game over that one.

[@MrBlockton]

I agree with you for everything, except for the part re: how the vehicles handle in GTA IV. Sim like? Man, what? They're horrible. They're ridiculously cartoon-like and floaty. It's so over the top - it's like the suspension is exaggerated 5x over an actual car. But yeah, damn, taking out the fog was a huge mistake. And also as you said, this has way more character and grit than GTAV. I hope the next one is set in NYC, again. (the rumour is multiple cities, so...)

[@kodexishot]

​@@MrBlockton Perhaps a better word to describe IV's driving is "detailed" - you feel the differences between the different vehicles, the contours of the road, you can't magically turn perfect corners without braking or come to an instant stop at 100mph so you have to engage more to control the car by braking earlier etc, extra small details like being ejected from the window or being able to deform the car extensively or having the option of being able to leave the engine on or off etc are present, the physics of the game in general are more detailed and this extends to driving. I prefer the word detailed but I would also say that compared to other GTA games it can also be described as realistic. Would you say there's another GTA game where the driving is more realistic?

[@MrBlockton]

@@kodexishot That's fair.... but it's wildly exaggerated. Yes, the cars feel more responsive - or show a wider range of responsiveness for sure, but it's so wildly exaggerated that it usually snaps me out of it. It's like a cartoonish level of driving. It's very stylized, much like the stylized/cartoonish look and feel of the character design, so honestly it fits quite well w/ the art direction of the game itself. GTAV, while having a more numb feeling, is also more realistic (but still definitely not anywhere near a sim with respect to driving.) - so yes, I'd say GTAV better resembles reality, even though it's still quite fake feeling.

Узнал игру GTA 4, когда мы с друзьями у друга в гостях искали в интернете другие части, даже играли другие версии той части San Andreas: тройной форсаж, казино рояль, крепкий орешек, Лос Сантос, Super Cars/Sunny mod, порочный остров, Обитель Зла/Zombie Andreas Johnsons Story DLC/LEFT 4 DEAD/Zombie Andreas 2.1/4.0, Alien City и GTA Vice City: Ultimate, ментовский беспредел, Long Night. Возможно я её впервые поиграл GTA 4 в 3 классе, позже на летних каникулах проходил режим погони в Need for Speed: Most Wanted 2005, позже узнал что выходит 5 часть GTA в 5 классе и одноклассник просил ее купить, но в нашем базаре где продавали диски и этого диска не было, наверное это было весной пятого класса) Точно помню, то другой одноклассник купил ту самую часть пятую GTA и там была два диска в одном комплекте в самом диске. Хотя, зимние моды в трилогии самые классные, особенно в 5 и 4 частей) В 2011 или 2012 году мы ещё проходили игру call of duty: modern warfare 3 и железного человека, прототипа 2, Saints Row: The Third, тачки 2, Transformers: War for Cybertron/Cybertron Adventures (Fall of Cybertron), Crysis 3 и другие игры, возможно был 3 класс на летних каникулах, а может был 4 класс, точно не помню) Даже в тот момент проходил игру Call of Duty с 1 до 4, была ещё пятая часть и Black Ops) Ну, Герои Эллады самые любимые как вся почти коллекция весёлой фермы и как достать соседа, Angry Birds, реальная ферма 2 самая космическая) А так, когда было мое день рождения осенью в 2013 году и был у меня 4 класс, то мой друг подарил мне игру/диск Sniper: Ghost Warrior 2, хоть кто-то еще дал диск с коллекцией SWAT 4: The Stetchkov Syndicate и вроде-бы GS Go 1.6. Даже тот который мне подарил диск, он вместе своим отцом проходил тачки 2 и GTA 4, хоть это было хорошее время) Хоть в наше время были те игры, которые мы играли Spec Ops: The Line, 007: Agent under Fire, бешеные псы, American Chopper, Battlefield 4/1942/2142, Metro: Last Light, Homefront, Assassin’s Creed III/Brotherhood, мафия 2/1, Red Dead Redemption, Bully) Хоть в GTA 4 сюжетная линия классная, особенно когда в другой вселенной/части играешь про байкеров как тип GTA 5) О, когда-то у другого друга было день рождения и дал тоже некоторые диски с играми и форсаж вторую часть, а в тот момент был февраль)
