Rest

All these years later I still chuckle at what a fucking moron that guy is.
Am i the only adult on earth that never played GTA5 ? I own every GTA up to GTA IV but somehow never tried this one.
I didn't play it for a long time. I also probably won't be replaying it, unlike III-SA.

I think it’s pretty clear that it’s up to Rockstar to give Microsoft permission to do that. So it’s really up to Rockstar to allow this to happen. Something that I doubt if they want to make money off the upgrades.
That is not what Microsoft has said in the past.
They're not changing any code. They're adjusting how their own API responds to it.
The benefits of running games in a virtual machine.

To be more exact: Yes, Microsoft will defer to the wishes of the property holder. But not because they have to. And, as seen with Alan Wake, they are perfectly willing to eventually go ahead with their enhancement (after only one month, in that particular case).

I don’t think it matters what Microsoft wants. If Rockstar tells them no because they want to sell the upgrade I don’t believe they can go around that. This isn’t like PC.

So they are selling assets and code that ALREADY EXISTED for pc.... If it was new code/assets, then maybe it could be a case.. Or, if they offered a $10 upgrade for existing owners. This is a terrible, terrible, terrible cash grab, greediness and spit in the face, considering they will monetize this to the moon with gto. How fucking greedy is this company...

PC high-end settings + improved texture quality, HDR options, and ray tracing. These 3 things are not present on PC at the moment.

If you don't like it, don't buy it. Simple as that.

One can also voice their opinions even. Though it may hurt the hype train and make marketing’s job more difficult if they (reasonably) feel this is a cash grab especially after their Definitive Edition work.

Vote with your wallet. They don't care about your voice. Judging by how well DE sold, this will be another hit for T2, regardless of the quality.

I think it is fair but also talking about it, as long as it does not make marketing’s job easier (Streisand Effect in a way).

I don't like it. The biggest improvement will come from resolution boost which could have been unlocked with a tiny patch. The ps4 pro, the Xbox one x and the backwards compatibility of the new consoles was betrayed due to their greed. If they could pull off the same stunt on pc and lock high end settings behind a pay wall without a backlash, they would. Oh, and by the way - they will. I bet an enhanced pc version will come next. At an inflated new price. Greed greed greed. Simple as that.

Voicing opinions, it's what message boards are all about, at the same time constant whining and complaining when what you are saying isn't even true seems like a waste of time. Actual work was done on these games, they aren't just plugging the PC version in, they had to be ported and people were paid to do it, none of this was free for them to do. I swear sometimes gamers are the whiniest people on earth (right next to game devs and game journalists) being asked to pay for a product isn't greedy it's optional.

People have every right to be concerned and complain. As of now we still don't know how much this will cost. Their silence is making it seem as though it'll be full price, $50-$60. When you consider that most people have already bought this game not once but twice and you realize that they greedily held back any kind of resolution and framerate patches just to starve people for a remaster, then you should see why it's justified.

If this is anything more than a $20 upgrade for existing owners people will riot. It's really scummy how they never patched the game and are now seemingly charging full price.

So don't buy it?

So I just bought this game 2 weeks ago for my Series X and just now booted it up. Noticed right away it was running at 30 fps, I paused and checked settings and there is no option for performance mode. Not sure what's going on.

I went to youtube and they say you need to go to Settings: Display: Graphics Mode and you'll see the option. But I don't have that option. Very strange, I can't figure out what to do. I have the Premium Edition if that matters, it's also the only edition I see in the xbox store.

You got the wrong version, friend.

Premium Edition is the base XBO version.

The version you need is just GTA V on the Xbox store and it's currently $19.99.

Here's a direct website link, yes I know the branding and all is real stupid.

Darn, I figured it might have been something like that. Thanks for help!

They made buying on Xbox Series so confusing. It also installs as GTA Online instead of GTA V. It got so many one star reviews on the Microsoft store when it released because of that. People didn't know you had to start it and hit RB to get to single player.

Has the xbox version even been patched to put the shadows in that are missing under cars etc?

I will buy it on sale if they do as my saves and online character is on the xbox version, but I'll just pass if not.

It's been on sale for $20 on Xbox since launch. Goes back to full price sometime in June I think. I got it with reward points. I played through the story in the remastered version in performance RT and didn't really notice that the under car shadows were missing. Maybe they were.

Edit: looks like they did fix it when they released the change that lets you turn off motion blur
