Well with people playing it early it is not fair for the rest of us, do you guys think that Rockstar will delete all the stats that this people are getting before release, i can already imagine some guy logging in at 12:01 to the Rockstar club and posting everything...

I mean, look at this :( ... http://i31.tinypic.com/29ighu.jpg

There is quite a difference. We do not and will never promote piracy here. By posting a link to a YouTube video from a random person, nobody here is showing that they've pirated the game or purchased it earlier than they should have. But by posting your own shots, you're pretty much saying, "Yeah, it was me, I did it," and showing that you have pirated the game or otherwise obtained it earlier than you're supposed to.

Talk of piracy is not allowed here, so it should follow that promoting piracy by showing screenshots of a game you have pirated is also not allowed.

alright.

Everyone please post your John Smith's GTA4 pictures/videos made by you John Smith. Makes the mods feel better. :rolleyes:

Anyone here going to be lining up at midnight for the release? I can see people doing that for a console but I game? I dunno am I the only one who thinks its a bit much.

It is too much, if you wake up at 8,9 am that day and walk to the store they will still have plenty.

although i do understand from some people that are mega fans of the series and cant stand another second without playing it...

So how hard is it to evade the police now?

From what I've seen, 1 star is a case of driving to the end of the street, 2 stars is a bit more difficult, and anything 3 stars and above is impossible. When you have 6 stars, the radius you have to escape from takes up the entire map.

Damn :( Is it stupid AI like most games? So if you get out of a car while the police can't see and switch into another one would they recognise you from the other end of the street? Or if you're hiding around a corner the police will magically know where you are?

If you want to get max stars straight away, steal a helicopter and fly it into part of the map that you shouldn't be on till later in the game. I discovered that by accident

That really isn't a spoiler. It's been like that in all the games I think.

I don't think they will and personally I don't think it matters. Do you want to be the first person out there to get all 50 achievements unlocked? :p

The game should be fun regardless of what other people do. :)

True, still, it would have been cool to know how long it "actually" took someone to get everything in the game since the day of release...

Maybe to you guys who know the games inside out it's not a spoiler but to other "casual" gamers it is

I never even got a chance to fly on any of the other games lol

Well, just think about this for a minute. If you go somewhere you are not supposed to be, what do you expect to happen? Not being a smart ass, that's a serious question.

Well normally on "games" when you go somewhere you're not meant to go, there is a physical restriction in the way.

Such as an invisible wall that is impassible.

    • Nearly 70% of Steam users now run Windows 11

      By NextGen_Gamer · Posted

      Along with that and very unfortunate for Linux, the AI boom/tariffs/global supply chain instability really destroyed any chances of it getting a decent chunk of market share. By all accounts, if a Steam Deck was still available for $399 (with tons of alternatives releasing at $500-$800 - instead of $1500+ now) and the Steam Machine was out there for $499, I think a lot of people WOULD have been willing to try SteamOS and switch away from Windows. But yeah, with the crazy jacked up prices now, people have to make safe bets with their money.

      Neowin hasn't been covering the Ladybird browser but it has been posted about on a lot of tech and Linux/open source sites. I have been following the effort myself for almost a year now. Cloudflare and Proton are among their sponsors. You can read the why here--> https://ladybird.org/#about

      That's really the user's problem, not the developers. It's not like the Windows 10 EOL was a surprise. Once a product goes out of support, you have to understand YOU are owning the risk of running it - the rest of the world will move on, maybe you'll be OK, maybe you'll be OK for a while, maybe you'll have an issue.... But you can't expect devs to write or certify software for dead operating systems.

      Not mentioned in this blog post is that Linux has now dropped for 2 months in a row. At a hight of 5.33% in March, then 4.52% in April and now 3.99% in May. I suspect the end of Windows 10 got a bunch of people to try Linux, fueled by all the Microsoft hate, and rabid social media push of that....and now they are going back to Windows 11 because of the normal Linux issues. The vast majority of PC gamers want to use their computers to game and not trouble shoot why a game wont work, or half work.
