GTA V vs GTA IV - Driving Physics

Grand Theft Auto V vs Grand Theft Auto IV - Driving Physics, Mechanics, Car Damage and some random events.
Side by side comparison GTA V vs GTA IV. Comparing which is better when driving.
Guys, which one do you prefer more between GTA V or GTA IV physics, mechanics and car damage. Some of you asked me to do a driving physics and here it is. Tell me what you like the most from both of them. Also, tell me what you don't like from both of them. Grand Theft Auto has improved it's mechanics and physics over the years, but GTA 5 sure seems to be doing great.
Hope you like it, thanks for watching and don't forget to thumbs up.

[@likeclockwork6473]

The reason they changed the physics was due to a vocal minority of casual gamers that bitched because they couldn't make a turn without crashing Its the same reason why casual gamers like the arcadey Need for Speed games and hate Gran Turismo. They always complain that the cars are too slow and that they spin out to easy. They made almost every car in GTAV accelerate like they all have supercharged V8s with the weight and handling of a Mclaren F1. I honestly prefer GTA4 over GTA5 for the driving mechanics alone

[@danielcr2617]

+Sam Non All the fucking reason, But I prefer the gta iv physics xD u dont?

[@likeclockwork6473]

+Daniel Benjamin Carmona Rocha I agree with you. GTA4 is the better base game because of its physics. GTA5 went back to the shitty arcadey handling of San Andreas.

[@RayyanKhanRayyanKhan]

+Sam Non also they decided to make the player physics realistic, like the player has weight

[@kwsths99]

+Sam Non Exactly that. To all those who hate on GTA IV handling... go play gran turismo whithout traction control, without ASM, on manual transmission, withoung steering assistant and without ABS. SIT THERE, LEARN TO DRIVE AND THEN GO PLAY GTA IV.

GTA V was also a Ped physics downgrade. In IV it was so fun pushing people down stairs, the rag doll was so much better and the cops were funnier and had more personalities and much more fun to troll rather than the ones in V

[@lezimo5407]

yeah i remember hitting someone and running away to find cops and when he came to me he punchex me and the police aressted him...Sometimes he ran away so i took the baseball bat and killed him.Good ol' days

[@cikoxd9956]

Gta v obviously has usa cops. They dont mind you speeding, going trough red ligts, and crashing into other cars (which sometimes kills driver), but if you stare at them for too long or try to talk to them, they will shoot you.

[@Ewson556]

+Kevin Maddick Notice how there are also no cops on the streets unless you're wanted. (in GTA V) You don't really see them patrolling, unless you're atthe airport, or the police station.

[@ElliotHell47]

+Kevin Maddick But remember: GTA IV was made for adult auditory and GTA V made for god damn kids, that's why it has not too "dark" or kinda realistic story.. downgrade phisics was made also for kids, or people with hands-from-theirs-ass.

***** I totally hope it does too. I love the more weighty and less arcade-y style of GTA IV's driving.. But I totally understand why R* went with a simpler driving style for V, and as much as I hate to say it. I think it was the right move.... Because we are in the minority, most people don't know how to, or even care to know how to drive with more challenging physics. And Rockstar is just aiming to please the masses..

[@DigitallPimp]

GTA IV has far superior physics and damage. When you're going top speed in GTA IV it actually feels intense because you can quite easily lose control whereas on GTA 5 when you're driving at top speed it doesn't feel nearly as intense because the cars handle unrealistically well. Also drifting is so much more enjoyable on GTA IV because you can get realisticly long drifts on GTA IV where you can control the car throughout the drift. Vehicles on GTA 5 have way to much grip to make drifting any fun. Overall driving is much more fun, realistic, challenging and therefore rewarding on GTA IV.

[@theemperorofdrifts5854]

I think driving in gta 4 is extremely unrealistic and stupid and the physics make no sense at all because if cars would handle like this in real life we better get rid of any cars

[@Antimanele104]

GTA 4 driving mechanic is a bad joke. Not even real cars don't peform like those in GTA 4, but suprisingly, more like those in GTA 5. Not saying driving in GTA 5 is perfect, far from it. But stuck up fans blinded by stupid nostalgia are grinding my gears.

[@Anas-rx9zs]

@@Antimanele104 You all are absurd lol. If you tried making these sharp turns in real life at like say, 40-50mph you would drift like this too and lose control. I don't think you realize how fast you are driving on gta IV most of the times which is why you think its stupid

[@Antimanele104]

@@Anas-rx9zs 40-50 mph = almost 70-80 km/h which in this case, I'd understand. I am talking about cars turning at a mere 30-40 km/h on a dry road in a sunny day and oversteering like hell. The devs themselves said that the driving mechanic was overly exaggerated in the game.

i'm sorry but gta 4's motorcycles sucks ass

[@proximity101]

people wanna bag on Gta 4's driving just cause they dont get how driving really works, they dont get how torque or weight really feels Gta 4 had the perfect balance as where 5 decreased it an tightened it up for higher speeds an easier handling so everyone had an even chance of getting use to it problem is since they did that its impossible to drift correctly, the burnouts have no realistic effects especially with bikes an the overall feel of it is completely arcade style. now idk about these kids that say gta 5's driving is the best since most of them have probably never driven a real car to begin with but i dont want arcade i want realism an the driving in gta 5 lacks alot of it.

[@zombirai]

thank god there are some smart people in the world.

[@andersjensen1796]

It is very possible to drift in gta 5. It just takes ALOT of pratice ;).

[@proximity101]

yeah its possible but you cannot drift completely right. sure you can slide on corners but Gta 5's physics prevent alot of wheel spin the whole key to drifting all it does is bog out an wont break loose an get the tires good an hot this also effects the realism of burnouts as i mentioned in the earlier comment by not being able to get your car good an sideways for very long without losing power (hence why i mentioned torque.)

[@benkoadam75]

True mate. GTA 5 sucks in cars physics .

[@OWmyDragonballz]

Since when does an actual car handle like a boat and spin out over the smallest accidents? GTA IV driving is not realistic whatsoever. GTA V driving was intended to have a racing feel. In GTA IV a freaking lambourghini goes 0 to 60 in like 20 seconds. That is not realistic. The steering wheel feels like it's jammed and the car takes way long to do a complete turn. From my driving experience in real life. GTA IV is not even close to realistic. It's just different from V's driving is all while neither are going to be like real life. GTA V's steering physics are more realistic. But in the end, if you try turning at an extreme speed in both games, you will spin out.

My opinion: Gta IV is better, and here's my explain: Gta V looks very nice with the mountains, water, enviroment etc. But the rest of Gta V is like shit to me, you can't do anything in your appartement, you cant drive into your garage yourself, it goes automaticly. You can gain/earn cash to easy and to much. If you kill someone inside a property he will spawn again in the property and not outside the gates. You can flip your car if you are upside down, you can move your car in the air, and all the other reasons why i like gta iv more, you can see it in the video. Gta V is just to much extra, too much added. Gta IV is classic, original. Sorry for my not so good english

Gamers can never be satisfied. They changed the driving physics of gta 5 because almost everyone complained that the cars in gta 4 handled like boats and were too unwieldy to have fun with. Now they have made the driving more arcade like and still the gamers complain. I've been driving for nearly a decade and I can say that neither 4 or 5 are particularly realistic, granted I've not driven a big old American car, maybe they do try to roll over at every corner but I also know that cars don't have to come to a stop every time you pull the hand brake before they can pull off again. I've personally had more fun from driving in gta 5 despite it being *more* unrealistic and fun is to me what games should be.

Richard Roberts I did not complain about GTA IV car physics. It was really good. Huge leap from San Andreas. Not only this - even police AI was way better - they did not see the player everywhere, there was a logic search area, etc... Also - corpses, burnt cars etc. did not disappear once you turn around, but stayed for a long time. GTA - San Andreas was very overrated. The only problem - GTA IV had unrealistic graphics with excessive bloom, some diffuseness. Thankfully, graphic mods corrected this.

[@VR471]

XgenDaNcEs challenge because it's clumsy? GTA IV'S driving was certainly not better when the cars understeer and are way too loose that they do double barrel rolls. In fact I'd say Rockstar has to work on the driving mechanics. Neither games have realistic driving. The only thing is that V was easier and the cars stick to the road unlike the cars in IV, which made it better for me. But from a neutral view, the driving needs improvement and neither is better than the other.

Bland and depressing. Just like real life. Except in GTA4 you actually got the power to do what the hell you want. You play through GTA4, MrAviation? You remember early in the game, Faustin asks you to teach a laundromat owner a lesson? After you wreck his shop, he tells you one last thing before you go. He says he thought he would escape that kind of life when he left his homeland. Right then and there (Aside from Roman and his titties and bowling obsession) I knew that the writers understood what they were doing. That game is dark, and it's why I love the idea of GTA. Also, the color scheme can be indicitive of the theme of the game, but I honestly think it was that way because they couldn't make the game look as nice back way then. Any mods for GTAIV such as IceEnhancer essentially change the color pallete and the game can still keep its theme.

When GTA IV was new, everyone said SA was better. Now that V is out, IV is the best. And when VI is out, V will be the best. It's all a matter of nostalgic fanboys.

[@blank-vj1mc]

***** Yeah no. I read a bunch of dumbasses like you saying IV's driving physics were so unrealistic, with the suspension being so floppy and the cars slid so easily. Stop trying sound smart. You know you're just piling onto V because its popular to do. And yes people said SA was better at the time of IV. They (you) claimed it was far better for video games than the slidey IV physics. It is an issue of nostalgia. Every sequel is always worse than the predecessor until the next sequel comes. And V isn't bad. The cars are stable enough that they don't unnecessarily roll on a sharp turn and they slide enough to make driving fun.

[@blank-vj1mc]

***** And realistic damage? Yeah, i doubt slamming into a concrete wall at 100 mph and suffering fender damage was realistic. Remember how no trim would fall off in IV? Yeah. Totally realistic. Stop shitting on solid games to make you feel smart.

Heh, nobody can be nostalgic about something that recent. They made the driving aspect less realistic in V. It's very evident. Some people like it. Some people don't. A lot of people say, " You can do more in GTA V." That's true, but it's Grand Theft AUTO. The driving shouldn't be lame. Also, when 6 comes out, the people who now prefer 4 over 5, will prefer 4 over 6 because the developers probably won't bring back the driving realism that 4 has.

Rockstar always said during the development stages of GTA5 that people disliked the overly realistic physics engines so they made it easier. Perfect example of this is being bale to flip your car. I used to love getting into a 6 star chase and accidentally flipping a car in GTA4. The tension of having to escape the wreck was so much more fun than just flipping it back over.

GTA IV has more realistic driving than GTA V. In GTA IV it feels like the cars actually have weight.

[@OWmyDragonballz]

In GTA IV the cars actually feel like handling a boat too so there is that.

[@Korijna]

[@OWmyDragonballz]

Siri Rii Driving a car in real life takes much less skill however. And GTA IV physics do have great physics. For boats at least, but not for cars.

[@SuperSnooki14]

It's not supposed to be driving simulation. There is a lot of tight corners, and turns in gta v if it had gta 4 physics we'd be flying off the road at every turn.

[@ZachSaylor]

I think the exact opposite. In GTA IV, it feels like your cars are weightless and are sliding on butter.

[@Johnny127ful]

How the fuck is GTA IV's driving better than 5? Why the fuck does it take me exactly 8 seconds to stop a slow moving car in IV? Why the fuck do the cars slide like they're on ice when I try to make a turn going slow? Fuck GTA IV's driving.

[@StarringOdessa]

I like the driving style in both games for very different reasons. GTA V feels like an old-school racing game, whereas GTA IV seems to be going for a bit more realism, although they could've toned down the boatlike handling a little bit. I enjoyed both games for their own very different reasons. They are quite different.

The one thing I miss most is the vehicle damage and bullet impact from GTA IV. When you crash a car in GTA IV, the impact feels very accurate and deep, while in GTA V, it feels bumped down and recoiled. Shooting people was also much better in GTA IV

[@BritsBoy122]

I don't understand GTA 5's cars. They speed up really fast and sometimes turn really fast, like there's no buildup or friction or even physics. GTA 4 on the otherhand has cars that speed up over time and slow down over time.

I don't mind the driving physics. What disappointed me in GTA V though, was that people were WAY weaker. A fucking leg shot is enough to kill them. I loved GTA IV's ragdoll physics, and how characters would sorta drunk-walk as you shot them. It's not satisfying to headshot someone in GTA V if they're just gonna die when you shoot them in the arm once too.

[@panther29484]

GTA V's driving physics were specifically programmed with GTA Online in mind, so every car felt the same, easy to drive, with little damage so there's less time wasted to get personal vehicles repaired, especially driving around the countryside off-road. By comparison, IV's vehicle physics took getting used to, slid about (on flat road), and collisions were far more brutal. Although I prefer IV's driving by a country mile for its realism, you can see now why V's driving got the Midnight Club treatment. Since V is the last campaign of the franchise, it's impossible to say if/when the driving will be improved or balanced out.

[@ftghb]

+Faisal Masab I can definitely see how they've shifted the target audience. Not saying that the older characters were realistic, but they had a more 'adult' feel to them. the GTA V characters by comparison feel like cartoons, esp trevor. It's ironic given its M esrb rating, but it's the same shit that happened with call of duty, if you ever go on GTA online, you'd almost be embarrassed to interact with the people there because they're either 10 year old kids or creepy guys looking to pick up imaginary girls

[@MrClownDroid]

It's MORE realistic. I don't recall a car losing control going 25 MPH The acceleration is beyond garbage, even the Porsche. You'd be surprised how fast a car can go if you floor it. I'm saying cars are more responsive than you think even if they aren't meant for speed. Only difference is your car will give out sooner or later in real life GTA 5 has that fast response cars have.

[@ChadoyVlogs]

I honestly don't know why everyone is choosing GTA 4 over GTA 5. In GTA 4 there is a very limited amount of activities to do in the game. You couldn't dive under water, you couldn't buy cars or customize them, you couldn't buy more properties, there are no heists, and etc. I would keep going, but the list keeps getting longer and longer.

[@alexandrefonseca5857]

***** we'll have to talk about that in a few days then. . . plus, it's not nostalgia goggles, it's just that a game where you drive 90% of the time should be realistic with driving which is what gta iv is like, gta v is simply horse shit when it comes to driving, I'm not denying that it's better overall, it is, but the driving is horse shit, pure horse shit

Would like to say that GTA San Andreas has all that and more. Therefore GTA V is shit and backwards

[@MASTERJJ1995]

***** Take your shiny shit and denial goggles off. Seriously GTA V can't even touch GTA SA in gameplay content. That's a fact. GTA V and R* went backwards and people know it.

[@MASTERJJ1995]

***** Yes I have. I did the whole story in less than 24 hours game time. You can crouch and sneak in GTA SA. THe cars actually damage in GTA SA and that even using the old engine before the RAGE was done. The 103 (V has 69) mission storyline made total sense with the villain - a famous actor (Samuel L. Jackson) in which CJ needed to find the murderer of his mother and takes him through his home life out of it into the countryside, the burliness of SF, the full desert action and the constant bright lights of casino filled LV. Each with it's own theme and setting which are all unique to each other (Which V can't do since it has 1 little city and landscaping). Adding to the map, there are many interiors that aren't just copy and pasted like V (look at our apartments). And GTA SA, VC, VCS and IV all have fast food interiors which V doesn't. Yes V has ragdoll physics but that's so Saints Row - there's no purpose for it either. Insurance fraud on SR gave ragdoll a reason. Remember GTA SA is made on a bullet/euphoria engine rented and now R* have RAGE specifically for it. Ofcourse there is differences, bit you're looking at the graphical side when you need to understand gamepaly, physics, interactions, coding, A.I, environment etc. GTA V car is Mario Kart, it's aimed for kids. Easy steering and super brakes. Also the mass of the cars are hilariously pathetic - the LSPD (Let's Spawn Police Department - because R* are Lazy) can stop you in a heavy vehicle. I can't ram vehicles out the way in a truck. The mass id set to class and decreased upon player_enter. Now GTA IV, each vehicle has it's own handling.dat and stays like it upon entry. That's realistic. Yes SA did have less but look at the memory capacity we have now SA takes like 5 mins to download because it's technically small data now. As I said earlier, graphics are just there for viewing pleasure, like having a girlfriend model. It's about the programming, player options, gameplay, story, and most importantly a sufficient amount of content for the player. GTA V is like a demo in content compared to SA. Give someone both games and see how long it takes for them to 100% each game. The fair test shows the facts.

People honestly have to be bling to think that the damage physics in Gta IV are better. At 5:44 the vehicle's hood has a random dent on it, that wasn't even a point of impact. The bumper (which is what hit the ground) looks to be in almost perfect shape, maybe just a little dented since the game can't handle much damage beyond that until it just falls off. At 1:31, well, this explains itself. There is a random spike in the middle of the bumper, with some stretches across the whole front of the car to simulate damage, as well as some dents across the bumper which don't look like they belong there. I love Gta IV, and it did have some pretty impressive damage physics for its time, but Gta V is clearly the winner when it comes to vehicle damage. I dare anyone to prove otherwise. And saying some bullshit like "but damage happens more easily in Gta IV, but the damage in Gta V is not as visible after crashes at almost the speed!", this does not prove that they are more realistic, or even look better. All this proves is exactly what you said, the damage happens more easily in Gta IV. This does not necessarily mean it is more realistic. Remember, the damage detail is what really proves how realistic the physics are, not the amount of it!

I suppose Rockstar made these changes to save players' nerves and to make driving more pleasant. As for me, I'd prefer a golden mean between IV and V. But less car damage makes me sad, and I can't stand that "move your L stick to control the car in the air". This sucks(

[@tristan.ternowsky]

gta iv physics sucked

[@yackboyzmc9853]

you are wrong.

[@peeprox1991]

YackBoyz MC you are wrong.

[@bahar3539]

Why so much drama? They are BOTH in their way unrealistic. I haven't played gta 5 yet and gta 4s tires are like butter, which is annoying and unrealistic.

[@PLAYRIDER13]

you were only to stupid to drive -.-

[@tristan.ternowsky]

No way any car will have that much body roll

[@MrrrPiccckles]

I fucking hate how people purposely make GTA 4's fighting look bad in these videos how hard is it to time a dodge after a punch comes? Do that twice you get a cool combo the first time, the second you get a death combo. In 5 you hold in A/X like a baby then then two hits and they die O: I just wanted to beat him up

[@pedinhuh16]

Even worse, in 5 if you sucker punch somebody on the streets, you kill then too! In 4, if get into a fight and win, the losers will stay in the ground but some time later he will get and walk away while limping,

[@mateuszgrzejszczyk5700]

[@BrassBoy-ot4sy]

No they do not! They definitely feel different. At least some do.

[@GabrielShitposting]

I think we all need to know... Niko doesn't likes safety belts. That's all.

[@HairyHog77]

Grand Theft Auto IV's crashing was much more realistic.

[@MrRainbowTeddyBear]

Definitely. Especially, because Niko NEVER WEARS A SEAT BELT. >:C It would have changed everything...

[@DoubleAStudios03]

Really? When you hit a pole at 10 mph in gta 4, it makes a big ass dent in a certain spot on your car!

[@kingfayaiz44]

When in Gta 4 you have change cars frequently because they run out of engine

[@DS.the1st]

gta iv had much more cars. we need cars from gta iv back in gta v but the problem is it just wouldnt have the feel, like gta iv always did... in gta v you can just see wrecks of gta iv cars -_- i miss gta iv tho especially the swing glitch 😂

[@johnkapwn]

+MiniAssassin GTA V has 260+ Cars, GTA IV had around 80, GTA V has around 60 to 70 of those in the game.

[@rdablock]

I think GTA V has a lot of cars too, AND it also has other vehicles such as propeller airplanes, fighter jets etc

[@-liberexcogitatoris-8137]

I hope Gta 6 is some mix of Gta 4 and Gta 5, with an big Map, and multiplayer, like gta 5 with some upgrades..

[@alekos9777]

+John Kapwn GTA V has boring car selection... Every 4th car in Los Santos is a supercar/luxury car.. The game has too small amount of various normal family cars

[@yusufelsayed7898]

Gta 5 has over 500 vehicles and a nice vehicle selection.

[@SuperSlightlyOff]

I don't think people have a grasp on how realism is supposed to play into this. Sure, GTA IV is more grounded in reality and probably has more realistic physics than V, but is it more fun? At least in GTA V, there are a lot of aspects that don't ruin the fun that got in the way of IV, like being able to flip the car back up and continue driving, accidentally hitting other cars without ruining the majority of your own, or turning corners without having to pray for dear life. Even if GTA V has less realistic physics, at least it's more fun. And that's really all that matters to a gamer.

[@micheals1992]

GTA IVs driving is more dramatic and has actual consequences... which in my opinion is more fun. GTAs driving has always been about physics and drama... not getting from A to B with minimal hassle.

[@desutaiga]

I'd rather fail a mission because I flipped my car than continue it without a problem because I have magic powers.

[@micheals1992]

Ville Väisänen If you have a PC I suspect (if it's possible to mod GTA 5 and it's actually going to be on PC...) you might be able to get a physics mod for GTA V.

[@respeters5096]

The car flipping back up part, doesn't make any sense though....BUT..more fun...Lol.

[@mariorodnam7791]

***** agree wit you 100 percent.Its more fun when ur trying to avoid crashing because u kno ur car is going to get damaged or u might get thrown out the front window haha

[@GaryJoo419]

I guess Gta IV's physics is much more realistic. I think the software engineers and the staff who made the V, had a choice, they had to speed the physics up in case of new players wouldnt got bored. Both games are perfect, and I play them both. GTA for life. It's a lifestyle

[@B4RC0D3_YT]

But there is something I disagree about that the cars run just completely unbalanced, and unlike the real cars, they slide as though they were on the icy and slippery ground.

[@jeremiaalicea1232]

Yeah, I don’t get why people say GTA IV’s driving is “realistic” when cars don’t drive like that at all. Sounds like a bunch of 12 year olds.

[@davadreviewer5509]

Jeremia Alicea It’s more HollyWood Realism Then anything

[@thehitech_redneck3491]

Gta 4 is more realistic because if you crash in gta 5 your don't fly out the window even though your not wearing a seat belt

[@thecreepermaster12]

You do, only that you need to crash at a way higher speed in comparison with GTA 4...

[@MultiYippee]

You do, but you need to drive faster to fly out the windscreen in GTA5. It's not as easy to do so in GTA5 since sometimes in GTA4, you could be driving at 20mph, hit a barrier and then you go flying. Plus, crashing at very high speed in GTA5 will throw you out the car and kill you.

[@T0m0zuki]

GTA V physics are crap! I wish I`ve newer bought this game cuz it is all about driving. Why couldn`t they just make 2 driving styles like some other games do. One for children who prefer Mario Karts and other who just loved GTA IV. WTF Rockstar?

[@RBN_M8]

😆😆😆 Mario kart... I agree with you, they should change the driving physics because this game ain't for children.

[@SkinnierSteve]

Graphics can't make a game good. It's just for looks. Most older games are better than the newer ones nowadays.

[@LuckStroN]

+SkinnierSteve For example Halo 2 vs Halo 4.

[@vidarengeseth5024]

If you don't like it, don't fucking play the masterpiece then.. Plus, for petrol heads, there is no other game that delivers such a world to drive around in, car parks, random places, driving like 1mph.. Gta4 is fantastic, but gta5 has so much more brilliant cars, better throttle control, "manual gears" etc.. No other driving game can you control the gears just with the gaspedal/trigger. Btw, it has to be a Xbox controller. Cuz that has the best triggers, perfect for driving. Anyway, you should look at hitlers opinion.

gta 4 has more realistic damage, and handling

[@silvia_enc]

You should research before comenting dont you know that R* increased durabelaty on the cars of Gta5?

[@dafunk420]

now this is what i said. "gta 4 has more realistic damage" yes? and this is true, no need to comment on my comment if it is true

[@Udon_Noodle]

TheZabPehely Damage yes but handling is a definite no. Most of the cars in gta5 handle exactly like the real counter-part.

[@peeprox1991]

Chris xO Really? Fucking seriously? V drives like an arcade game, absolutely nothing like real life.

[@NotSoBrown]

the handling for the motorcycles are sooo off on GTA IV

[@FroddeB]

I liked GTA IV, but then again now when GTA V is out I can now see that it was missing... Well... EVERYTHING

[@FroddeB]

Faisal Masab list some things :P (Other than already existing things in GTA V like driving physics. Not something that is there but feels different, but actually something that is missing.)

[@nnrhproduction]

gta iv have better car crash demolition then gta v.. i hope gta v for pc will be better then console..

[@Tuntunboy10]

carterroxify Yes they will relese it.Cause one of the developers said "We will release grand theft auto five on pc.We just need a good grapics programmer"

[@loganhall5580]

Everyone posting here should put down the game and learn how to properly communicate first... Less easier? relese? grapic? realease? gta iv have better? i hope? better then? WTF is wrong with you people?! EDIT: I'm going to offer some grammatical insight here for those who need it most: They're - They’re is the contraction of "they are" and is often followed by the present participle (verb form ending in -ing). EX: They're going to port GTAV to PC... There - Multiple uses: 1. Adverb that means the opposite of "here" 2. Pronoun that introduces a noun or clause. 3. Adjective that emphasizes which person. 4. Noun that means "that place." EX: I'm not going there... Their - Their is the third person plural possessive adjective, used to describe something as belong to them. Their is nearly always followed by a noun. EX: Their information regarding this game is inaccurate... It's truly sad to see how our society has become so worried about the graphics of a video game, yet we cannot speak our own language properly. Do us all a favor and pick up a book...

[@Tuntunboy10]

[@themaster6718]

Thank you. I hated driving in GTA IV thanks to the boat-like handling.

[@thespeedsHD]

im not gonna lie GTA V is a great game great driving and fun cars to use but i think GTA IV is better for me because it takes more skills to use a car in GTA IV than GTA V because GTA V has a different driving mechanic and IV has a more realistic driving even tho the crashes arn"t the best thats just my opinion

[@TheLegendsFate]

Yeah, I didn't fully realize how different they were until this video. It looks so much tougher than I remember. Maybe that's why I'm pretty good at driving in GTA5, it's so much easier.

[@thespeedsHD]

true i didn't have trouble any trouble in GTA 5 driving because you got so used to GTA IV driving

GTA V physics and driving mechanics are GARBAGE. But when the game comes out next month for the PC we will start making MODs to fix all those things, and make it feel, look, and play realistic.

[@KakarotOwns]

It's a shame the masses don't see this, just happy with easier things.....

***** The game will only be better on PC because of the mods.

[@KakarotOwns]

***** Mods are what makes the game on the PC it's not stupid, GTA 5 needs a lot of adjusting before you can really enjoy it.

[@KakarotOwns]

***** Gameplay wise i liked 4 better felt more realistic, 5 is too arcade like.

[@KakarotOwns]

***** Yeah just driving is my main issue, i'm not a PC gamer so not getting on PC which is a shame because i know how awesome the mods are.

[@SarthakSPyt]

I need a game that's fun to play and not a fucking driving simulator.

[@FS-me8mj]

who's said driving simulation is not fun? You are probably not a car guy but there's a reason why Forza horizon is more popular compared to games like NFS and the Crew 2. The same goes for GTA, some ppl just prefer to have a feeling that they are going fast, aka the feeling of gaining momentum. In GTA 5, the feeling of momentum is close to none. Also, the rate of deceleration is 1 million times compared to actual life; just press the brake for 3s and your car will stop. This makes the game a really boring game for driving. I agree that it is more suited for amateurs to get a hang of driving cars in GTA 5 but it is not fair for the people who have moved onto GTA 5 from a game like GTA 4.
