GTA V downgrade Fixed!

Bummer. The Parallax Occlusion made a big difference, imo. I do like the moving foliage though. It's hard to say if the Collisions were downgraded or they just made the vehicles more durable from the vid. I like the older version better. And the Filtering? that is the true WTF. I thought the frame-rates were supposed to be fine in the game?
 
I don't think I've ever seen a post release downgrade before. It's a little scary to think a developer can remove graphical features AFTER you purchase a game.

Far Cry 4 on the PS4 was downgraded with one patch and was later fixed with another patch.

Yeah, it makes me wonder if whoever was working on the patch just accidentally turned some stuff off, lol. Like bumped it with his elbow on the way out :D
 
I heard 1.09 is already released. Does that fix these problems or downgrade something else?

Now I'm having all kinds of weird visions for the future. Imagine a game being released, then releasing a patch to remove the final chapter of the game, and then reselling said chapter as DLC.

I would say it's the company and definitly not the hardware. GTA5 is a PORT not some powerhouse that would take advantage of current gen tech.
 
Well it's definitely not the hardware, the features were all better implemented and working before hand...
 
I just checked it on Xbox One, there was no patch and the damage model is beyond terrible. I crashed into s*** with ridiculous speeds.....barely a dent to be seen on the car.

By the way , what exactly was/is parallax occlusion in GTA V?
 
Microtransactions for resolution? 100 GP gets you 10 vertical pixels and 250 RP gives you horizontal ones. Of course, you could grind for 80 hours and unlock the full resolution. But c'mon, its only $3.50...
 
Rockstar says they are looking into it.

Those would be PS4 specific transactions correct? You'd have knock off about half those pixel numbers for the XB1...
 
Why take out POM on Xbox One if there's no trade off at all though?

Hopefull it's just a bug as suggested by their analysis?
 
Looks like i'll have to get GTA V for the PS4 then. A game isn't good unless it's 1080p/60fps.

R* said they are looking into a fix for the graphical downgrades. You do not say that if the downgrade was intentional.
