Well we must be coming up on about a month since launch, so with the hype faded a bit I thought I'd ask what your opinions are of the game. Is it a big step forward in terms of features? The same game as before but in HD? Or are there bits missing from the last gen that you wish were still here?
Also, how pronounced are the technical issues I mentioned earlier on? The "occasional repetition of car models in your immediate vicinity" as soon as you find a new vehicle, things disappearing as soon as you rotate the camera around, the framerate etc.
The worst I've heard is people saying that they no longer check for cops before they do something illegal because things just spawn as soon as you turn your back, and how as soon as they grab a bike the streets are suddenly full of them. They were people who were generally dissatisfied with the game though so I was wondering what y'all thought of it, being more positive about the game and all.
Oh, and are there still bomb truck missions? Chase missions that you fail by not catching them in time and have to redo (including cutscenes and travelling to it)? Those are the kinds of things that turned me off the series since they went 3D.
This post probably sounds more negative than I mean it to be. I'm fairly indifferent to GTA but, like a few other big franchises, the more it gets unanimous perfect reviews (including some without a single criticism) the more out of sync I feel with most of the hobby...
