Why do people insist this is better than V?

why do people insist this is better than V?
It's probably one of the worst in the series and is only held up by the engine but everything else is mid

The story is better

fuck off zoomer

Gta was always shit, subhuman. Kys

kill yourself

it's the only gta game that tried to take itself serious and have a good story

It has better driving which is what you're doing for like 70% of any given GTA game
V's driving is too easy and arcadey

good story

in a gta game

4fags are all contrarian retards who parrot the same shit from youtube videos

A contrarian youtuber gaslit a few retards

A White man unapologetically uses the word nigger in it, it's automatically game of the century

i refuse to believe anyone can consider a single aspect of V good or at least mediocre, it's complete garbage

It's just contrarians being retarded.

le contrarian xdx

nice argument vfags

it is an actual good story you or anyone can easily get invested into IMMEDIATELY despite what Anon Babble trannies like say
the pacing is also top tier and elevates a video game into the stratosphere of crime drama masterpieces like once upon a time in america or casino
GTA IV is simply brilliant

The physics are great
It's like less plastic Mafia 2

Farcry 2

Contrarians really defended the malaria and guns getting jammed lmao, thats why they were removed the fuck out to never return

It’s true though. Nobody outside of Anon Babble actually thinks 4 is better than 5.

yeah and i don't know why
the only fun part of this game is doing races with brucie and missions with jacob. not because these missions are any good, but because jacob is such good character
GTA IV is a downgrade even comparing to SA, the only improved things are obviously graphics and physics

I don't really care about comparing titles. I like GTA4 though, it gives me a taste of city life and getting lost on trains. I will now dump train webms in your thread.

Even engine was garbage,dead open world,ugly weather,forgettable story,ugly slav mc

forgot to mention I'm trans >w<

Both suck really so there's not much to discuss.

I've started playing this 2days ago and the storry is funny (Brucie is my boy).
but there's so much driving and shooting and.... that's it? Im kinda dissapointed and also radio is shit.

I treat it as an immersive simulator. Really living the Liberty City life, one alley way at a time.

After you walk into Anon Babble and you see 50 anons, all sitting neatly in a row, each with their IPs banned, you realize that the creature that could do this doesn't make a wage.

quality over quantity. V would have been billion times better if they kept the vehicle physics. in IV the driving is so smooth and organic

iv_driving.webm - 1280x720, 3.23M

The mod that unlocks the hidden radio stations that were leftover from development is really worth it.

Yeah going fast in 4 feels serious.

And everything but the map itself, imo. Better physics, characters, gun feel and sound. GTA V felt like fisher-price shit.

caring for the story in a GTA game

its all about just randomly drive around and shoot stuff

go back to gta2 grandpa

the motorbike physics in V were so fucking bad
and they even make have his main vehicle as a bike so you're constantly forced to drive it
fuckin thing sucks

shits and farts

blows spit bubbles

"Le StorY in GTA???"

and they even make have his main vehicle

*make franklins main vehicle

physics

I like Roman.

If GTA online didn't exist. GTA 5 would've been forgotten by now.

apparently niko is 30 in gta 4, can you believe that?

time passes different in old country

get 250k for doing bank heist (one of, if not the only good mission in the game)

nothing to spend it on because rockstar didn't have time to add shit like car customisation because they wasted half of the games development time on gay little physics details that 99.9% of the playerbase never saw or cared about

the story and atmosphere were good, I guess.

in what universe does that look smooth? Fanboying over the driving in 4 is absolutely insane to me. Every car is on ice skates, they take a mile to brake, fucking awful.

Yeah, it's not GTA5 that's one of the biggest games of all time, it's GTA Online

CAW
SINN

Contrarian cope, online wouldnt even exist without V. And V is the most played single player in the series as seen by Rockstar Social Club data, left IV trash and its gay dlc in the dust

there's so much driving and shooting and.... that's it?

Yeah, that's my only complaint about GTA IV but it's a big one. All you do in the second half of the game is drive somewhere -> shoot people -> drive back -> mission complete

Online started with 4 just lacked central servers but the groundworks has been put down.

I hated the atmosphere, the characters and the story. I don't like eastern people they have a slave mentality and are soulless, they'd do the most wicked shit for money, they're worst than black people in that regard imo. But everything was grey in this game and really depressing. I think GTA 5 is superior in everything but physics but then again, i couldn't care less about that in the heat of gameplay.

GTA4 online was surreal. A massive world with a couple other people to hunt down and fight. It was neat.

y does ur game look so bad

because it is better than V
V feels like a mobile game with "fr fr" zoomer humor
i fucking hate GTA V, the story is trash, the driving is trash, the only good things that it has compare to IV is car tuning, weapon mods
and character customization rest is garbage

Is he portrayed as a villian or an idiot though?
If yes; then it really isnt much of an achievement, you can still do that in media, today.

Bad bait. Rope yourself nigger.

IV is slightly undercooked to the point where it becomes difficult to really give it a good review.
If you added more content to the game and especially the open world it could be really good

Nah, V is 100 times better than IV.

grimy NYC is more kino than sunny LA

Repetitive ass game full of chase missions and boring crime family cutscenes

I don't think I've ever seen anyone on earth claiming that fear 2 or 3 is the best one

slavs

white

based

As opposed to who? Portuguese? Italians? Spanish? Sandniggers? Spics? The whole South America?

lol I agree with the whole list even though I still like Oblivion

it's a mick who says that

The person that calls blacks niggers is Irish you retarded mutt

Troll zoomer post but I'll indulge. Every GTA had some sort of emotional tie, something that kept the goofy atuff in check before it became Saints Row.

IV's whole story is an emotional checkpoint. Fish out of water, man out of time, betrayel and loyalty. Revenge and forgivness.

What's V's hook? Saying fuck? Michael and Trevor fighting even after the main story is done? Franklin's milquetoast ending?

I never played V but IV was garbage and it was a huge downgrade from San Andreas in every way except graphics.

brawl in cell block 99 seems to meet your criteria

protag's (white) boss uses a hard R at the start

protag goes to prison

protag's wife is kidnapped while he's in

protag's boss shows up at the very end and mows down the bad guy with a rifle to save protag's wife

it was extremely based

Some parts of it are pretty good, particularly the physics, AI and general world building, and the story wasn't as terrible as in GTA V. The two main problems is that the map was way too small, and consisted entirely of a city, which is boring, while the other problem was that Niko is the most boring character in history, as is his shitty eastern European background and family. Then again, given the awful characters we were given in GTA V, boring might be better than a cucked mobster, a sanitized ghetto negro and a crackhead.

That's still better than the heavily scripted dogshit missions in GTA V. The heists in particular were just awful and on rails.

No, it was a huge upgrade from a technical perspective, and not just graphics. The NPC reactions, the character physics, the overall physics, the gunplay... the world just felt more alive and immersive, and far less cartoony.

None of which made it a better game.

They fucked over the radio stations on the game's 10th anniversary because a bunch of the music licences expired and they didn't bother to renew them

Fuck Cockstar

you can execute a bunch of yids

yep, game of the century

Every GTA is the same game with its bland overworld and characters reskinned.
The only chance is the shit linear story in which you do mission where you shoot niggas
So If the story or IV, the only thing that truly different from one game to another is better, then the game is ends being the better one as well.

GTA IV would be an amazing game if it had more variety in missions, removed the forced dating/friend shit, the main plot should've been around the diamonds, removed the badly implemented decision system.
As for driving physics, I really enjoyed driving in IV compared to the previous trilogy, though towards the end it became a chore because the game felt too long for its own good.

Hitman Absolution is better than blood money though

I think it's because V is actually not very good and suffers badly from schizophrenic direction, both in story and gameplay. Technology and limited gameplay mechanics in IV aside, it's a much more cohesive and complete feeling piece overall. V feels like it was rewritten twenty times and had every gameplay feature they could think of (especially the 'character progression' mechanics like strength, stamina growth etc) thrown in without any thought or a final balance/checking passover.

cruising through not-NY on a grey rainy afternoon while the jazz station plays in the background is a whole vibe in itself and i don't remember V ever evoking such a strong reaction. also, the Howard Stern spoof show in IV is such an effective takedown of the whole concept of the show that i'm kind of impressed rockstar was so ahead of public opinion in 2008

bioshock 2 is fucking fantastic though, it's a great companion to 1

GTA4 having good story is the biggest bullshit ever, literally every mission be like

blahblahblah niko go do something

okay

come back for mission 2

niko why do you such horrible things

I need money

That's the only reason he gives, you can't even buy anything useful with money in that stupid game.

It wasn’t.
They couldn’t even get planes to work in it.

not using the GTA IV demaker

Best story, best map, best characters, best gameplay. Only flaw is that your money is basically worthless since you dont buy houses or cars.

that's a man

Easily the best physics engine I've ever seen in a game. If they added some environmental destruction to it, it would have been godly. IV is aura farming a lot. I believe that it's one of those games that you either love it all the way or simply hate it from the beginning.

no, just a dyke. Still, the demake does more than just add removed songs.

Is it the only game you've played?

Name a better game in which cars deform like this and have ragdolls of this quality.

It looks cool, the physics and damage are cooler and the story is less retarded.

beam.ng drive

Beamng drive is a simulation project and barely a game. Also there are no "ragdolls" it's just a car testing. Yea I love Beamng drive too but it;s nowhere near GTA's scale or importnace.

on a side note, is non slopified trilogy still avalaible for purchase somewhere

i-it doesn't count

There are ragdolls by the way.

It's a crash test sim with no real people but crash dummies, and has worse physics than GTA. So yea it doesn't count retard. Try again.

Bioshock 2/Minerva's Den is the best Bioshock

The multiplayer not being MTX slop alone is enough to elevate it above soap opera crime game that is V

Steal a car

Bad cars are shit while good cars are great

Stuff like burrito vans are great because they have speed + mass

GTAV: ermmm every car basically has the same stats and is made of paper

FEAR 1 is poser-core garbage
normal people like 2 more

Ma man. If you like rides, you would enjoy the first person perspective from riding cabs as passenger.
I do that during rainy/foggy nights in liberty city. I love how detailed the city is, and how dramatic it looks with rain. The journey fm is a top tier radio station

you can't even buy anything useful with money

weapons and ammunition aren't useful? but I agree that this is one of gta iv's few weak points. getting a quarter of a million from the bank hesitation didn't mean much when there wasn't anything to buy with it

It's good because the setting had "soul", like how gta3, vc and sa had soul
Not to say gta5 doesn't capture the feeling of its setting, but the feeling that's captured is soulless modern day LA

You're a zoomer who is butthurt that GTA IV sucks dick like your mother.

PS2 GTAs take fat shits all over IV and V.

Money played a much more important part in previous GTAs. Buying propreties was what filtered me from completing VC when I was underage, and I guess many must have been filtered by the price of the airstrip in SA with the price of guns in ammunations.

posts a bar of soap driving in a straight line at "high speeds" of 60 MPH

boot up game

screen is smothered in rockstar brand vaseline

slow down to 40fps while trying to get into a car

fight shitty physics and 'realistic' driving while going across the map to mission

finally arrive

get halfway through mission, game crash for zero reason

google

have to turn down graphics settings to minimum

no checkpoints or saves so have to drive back to mission and do it all over again

slop game.

lists physics 3 different ways/times

The only thing you really said that I'd agree with, was the gunplay/aiming. It was pretty good once you got the hang of it.

PS2 GTAs take fat shits all over IV

Now this is the real delusion.

Wreckfest is only other game that I can think of that has car deformation comparable to IV.

I'm a zoomer!

No one cares about your opinion.

Yeah that was the biggest problem. Vice City had the best economy with the businesses you could buy, after that it was downhill.

Zoomers were playing GTA SA when it came out, you dickless troon.

GTA 4 had a good story

it's the same story structure they just gave the MC a backstory and made it less wacky

GTA 4 is the best GTA game but you faggots need to really stop acting like the story is something special

Zoomers were playing a game that came out 21 years ago

There is only one troon here. It's time for (You) to look in the mirror and accept yourself.

RING RING, NIKO LETS GO BOWLING!

RING RING, NIKO LETS GO BOWLING!

RING RING, NIKO LETS GO BOWLING!

yeah great story bro

because it is more fun and has a better story. I hate the driving for the most part but I just really like the atmosphere of the game on all campaigns. also like we have 3 separate stories that merge together in some points.

GTA5 is the only gta I finished once and never came back because the whole fucking game feels like an introduction to their online ecosystem, which I also never enjoyed. Which is exactly why I am not as excited for GTA6 as most because I just fucking know the same thing will happen again. I bet we won't even have single player DLC AGAIN as well.
