GTA 5 gets PC release date

Cheeseball · Jan 28, 2015

Hey guys, if you pre-order the game off Green Man Gaming (got it for $36 here YISSSSS), how do you claim the download for GTA:SA?

Yes, I know it's a bastardized version that removes 18 audio tracks, but I still wish to replay it again.

Care to explain how? code?

Cheeseball · Jan 28, 2015

I've got a code, but I've got no clue on how to claim it. I know GMG doesn't sell the Steam version of GTA5 (it uses Rockstar's own Social Club DRM), but I've got no clue as to where to claim that copy of GTASA...

bpgt64 · Jan 28, 2015

I pre ordered from GMG at 46 bucks a month or so ago. It says it's a steam code though.

Cheeseball · Jan 28, 2015

For the bonus GTA:SA or for GTA5 itself? The code I got is 15 digits and looks like a Steam key. I can't try it yet since I'm still at work.

I paid the full 59.99 and I am sure I will not be disappointed.

And you are right.

Rockstar could make a buggy mess of this or they could make an adequate port or they could make a home run. If they allow it then the mod community will step in. Wait and see is best.

but.... but free game :0
lol

Murphy's law

Cheeseball · Jan 29, 2015

I believe it's a home run. If they can optimize the engine (and it looks like it considering the recommended GPU is a Pitcairn HD 7870) just like PC port of Bully and Max Payne 3, they've got a winner.

33 days!

I've literally been studying the strategy guide every other day now, never played a GTA game in my life! Must have watched at least 10 hours of gameplay on YouTube after I preordered - can't wait! :peace:

brandonwh64 · Feb 24, 2015

Pushed back til April 14th...

marmiteonpizza · Feb 25, 2015

When I found this out...I was so frustrated!

But...

I know that Rockstar are really passionate towards the PC release, stating things like: "The PC version of Grand Theft Auto V is our most graphically and technically advanced version yet".
So I know they won't disappoint and the push-backs of the release dates are for the greater good :clap:

I have too many games in my Steam library from the Christmas sales anyway, so it's not like I'm going to be twiddling my thumbs while I wait

bpgt64 · Feb 25, 2015

It's all going to come down to execution, if it's a crappy port, then there is going to be hell to pay. If it's a good port, which I think we all know R* is capable of, there will be forgiveness, possibly.

CAPSLOCKSTUCK · Feb 25, 2015

I hope stuff like this happens....like on GTA 5 on PS

I think/hope it will be a decent port.

Rockstar, if you're listening I still want Red Dead Redemption on PC. I've heard it's a hell of a fun game.

We can all just hope that it won't be :/ ( a crappy port )

marmiteonpizza · Feb 25, 2015

I doubt it'll be a crappy port if they're spending this long on it and pushing the release date back multiple times to actively work on it for longer. This is me partly wishful thinking but also believing =)

I'm sure it'll be fine. Considering the fact that they already had to optimize it for the newer consoles, and even then they didn't just port it like GTA IV was. They brought a lot of new features to the newer consoles and are bringing even more to PC. Not just a slapped on port and go. They've done a great job with the newer consoles, and after playing a lot of it, I don't doubt them with the PC version.

marmiteonpizza · Feb 26, 2015

I've been tempted a countless amount of times to buy it for my Xbox One (that I never use anymore, in a way it's my brother's now)...but NO. I shall resist temptation and be patient enough to play GTA for the first time on PC!

Ah man, I already have a list of stuff to do when I start; I've watched literally hours of gameplay on YouTube and know where to go to find some of the best vehicles instead of buying them.

One question though: I noticed from the strategy guide that a few vehicles are only for the collector's edition or whatever - will these be included in the PC version? Were they in the next-gen version? There isn't any collector's edition for next-gen or PC, so I'm guessing they will be included?

WhiteNoise · Feb 26, 2015

Lets see. Grabbed it on PS3 and it was awesome. Then grabbed it when it released on PS4 and the differences are amazing. Awesome game the second time around. Will grab it for PC when it releases and i expect an even better experience. I think they will get this right this time unlike past GTA PC ports.

marmiteonpizza · Feb 26, 2015

Out of all the different activities/mischief you can get up to, even just the anticipation of leisurely road trips is getting me excited =P

If you can't tell yet, I'm excited

And this...is why they did what they did with the release schedule...I am not criticizing your decision. GTA is one the first video games I ever played. I wanted to do this(play it immediatly on ps3) sssssoooooooo badly. But I sold my ps3, and wasnt going to rebuy it for the oen game. And the ps4 and xbone are a sick joke of consoles. I am gonna bust my cherry on a pair of gtx 980's an XB280HK 4k gsync monitor...and I think I won't regret it...let's hope my wait was worth it.

Nice video, although make me not want GTA5 if that's how it be on the PC.

I really hope that it's not all like that the roads to start with are all so flat and plain.

Yeah, less chance of pulling a UBI.

I think GTA V just being in 60fps is going to be freakin' amazing.
