Rumours flying about of a new First Person mode being included in the next generation release of GTAV. Would be a good addition in my eyes - but what do you guys think?
That would be weird.
Not good weird either. Bad weird.
Not good weird either. Bad weird.
The saving grace is the online progress carrying over. If the MP is improved enough (heists??), I'll probably pick it up. Maybe on a steam sale...
Hasn't it been confirmed already? I must say it's going to feel strange, not something I see myself using too often.
Hoping for this. They promised heists a long time ago, although kept delaying it and we're beginning to see why in my opinion. They wanted something BIG to release with the next gen version perhaps.
It was confirmed on the Rockstar website but then taken down shortly after, so I can't say it's 100% just yet although it looks likely. Got to agree that it will definitely be strange, but I guess it's good that you don't HAVE to use it.

Who in here will be getting this for the PS4?
Also posted this in the RedCafe Crew thread...
I haven't been online on GTA much recently, but am looking forward to picking this up and playing online again.
Will be good to get a few of us online when it launches - so if anyone is buying this on PS4 that didn't have it on PS3, then go ahead and join the RedCafe crew.

I'm thinking of getting this, I see the pre-order on PSN.
I had it on PS3, downloaded from the store for £55. I don't see any concessions for those that've already bought the game. Am I really expected to whack another £55 quid out for a game I've already bought?

While it would have been nice to have had a discount for those that have already bought the game, realistically this was never going to happen (I suppose since almost everyone seemed to buy the game on PS3!).
I feel I have certainly gotten my money's worth out of the game on PS3, and based on that, do not begrudge paying for the PS4 version, as I know I will also play it extensively.
It appears as though R* is making a number of significant improvements to the game for its re-release (unlike, say, Sleeping Dogs), and they have demonstrated that they will keep adding DLC to the game.
I think there's concession in GTA Online for those that move from last gen to current gen. I think...
I'm glad I barely the touched the surface of this on PS3, gives me an excuse to give it a proper bash on next gen. Not played any GTA online either yet 
November is going to make me very poor - Far Cry 4, Assassins Creed, DragonAge, GTA IV, NBA 2k15, Shadows of Mordor eventually.
Just as well I've decided to pirate UbiSoft's shit for them being gimps with Watchdogs and Assassins Creed resolution, lulz.

Details on Exclusive Content for Returning GTAV Players on PS4, Xbox One and PC
http://socialclub.rockstargames.com...clusive-content-for-returning-gtav-players-on
Ever since we announced Grand Theft Auto V on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, some of you have been asking if there will be anything extra for those PS3 and Xbox 360 players who are planning on picking up the new versions. To reward loyal GTAV fans for coming back to the newer, more detailed version of Los Santos and Blaine County, we've created an array of exclusive items specifically for these players - with each of them connected to activities designed for you to experience the game's massive world in new and exciting ways. Here are some of the new items and activities that will be available for returning players:
The Dodo seaplane: It may take a little firepower to get your hands on this highly versatile GTA classic.
New Events & Rewards
Encounter new events happening all across the world, and complete the challenges they present to unlock exclusive new vehicles like the menacing Imponte Duke O’Death and that veritable GTA classic bird of flight, the Dodo seaplane.
The Imponte Duke O'Death: As you might expect, when you first stumble upon this near-indestructible mayhem machine, trouble will follow. Deal with it judiciously and this beauty’s all yours.
Murder Mystery
As Michael, follow a trail of cryptic clues to unravel a grisly murder mystery. Put the clues together and you'll unlock two Noir Style Filters, which will give your Story Mode gameplay and Snapmatic photos the feel of a gritty old school crime classic.
Get to the bottom of a murder mystery that strikes right at the heart of Los Santos' most cherished industry.
Weapons: The Rail Gun & Hatchet
Obliterate your adversaries with the high-powered, high-velocity Rail Gun. This piece of experimental military technology also has its own set of Shooting Range Challenges at your local Ammu-Nation shooting range. Or hack and slash foes up close and personal with the brutal Hatchet melee weapon.
The futuristic new Rail Gun unloads powerful rounds of explosive ammunition upon foes.
Wildlife Photography Challenge
There are new species of animals across Los Santos and Blaine County, and the LS Tourist Board needs someone to document them. As Franklin, catalog unique animal species scattered across the map to unlock the special Kraken Sub.
Completing the Wildlife Photography Challenge will unlock the Kraken Sub.
Stock Car Races
Win a series of new Stock Car Races to earn unique custom Muscle Cars adorned with logos from some of the companies that made this country great.
Finish first in the new Stock Car Races to earn new Muscle Cars.
Monkey Mosaics
A mysterious street artist is tagging walls all across town with his simian-inspired silhouettes. Track down and photograph them all to earn new monkey outfits (available to all players) and a special Go Go Monkey Blista exclusively for returning players.
Take to the skies in the faster and more maneuverable Xero Blimp.
New Vehicles and More
Grind up the Los Santos freeways (and over anybody in your path) with the Cheval Marshall monster truck and take to the skies in a faster and more maneuverable Blimp, compliments of Xero Gas.
There will also be a bounty of content for all players, new and returning, to discover - including a fleet of classic GTA vehicles and a few more surprises we've got planned that you’ll have to discover for yourself come game day. And as previously announced, current GTA Online players on PS3 and Xbox 360 will be able to pick up where they left off, transferring their characters and progression seamlessly to their choice of PlayStation 4, Xbox One or PC (Social Club membership required).
Few objects are an obstacle for the intimidating Cheval Marshall.

In addition, anyone who pre-orders the game will receive a bonus of GTA$1M ($500k for Story Mode and $500k for use in Grand Theft Auto Online). We’ve also received tons of great questions from excited fans about what's in store for the game. Below are some of the more frequent ones we've gotten that we're able to shed a little light on – and stay tuned for more info in the coming weeks. Remember, you can always send us your questions at mouthoff@rockstargames.com, or shoot us a tweet at @RockstarGames. If you've got feedback about what you'd like to see in GTA Online specifically, don't hesitate to drop our dev team a line at gtaonline@rockstargames.com.
What about the exclusive in-game content I originally received for purchasing the PS3 or Xbox 360 Special Edition or Collectors Edition last year? Will I be able to access that content on PS4, Xbox One or PC?
Yes, if you purchased the Special Edition or the Collector’s Edition last year, when you upgrade to one of the new systems, you will automatically have those items unlocked and accessible. Those in-game bonuses include the Stunt Plane Trials, Bonus Outfits and Tattoos, and the Pistol .50, Bullpup Shotgun and melee Hammer all for Story Mode use; as well as the Custom Classic GTA Parent Characters and the high-end Khamelion electric car for GTA Online. Furthermore, if you missed out on your chance to buy a CE or SE the last time around, we will also make all of that content available for all players on PS4, Xbox One and PC to earn and acquire with in-game cash (original SE and CE owners will not have to spend any in-game cash to obtain them, they will automatically be accessible upon upgrade).
Can you only make the GTA Online character progress transfer once?
If I transfer my GTA Online character to the new systems, will I still be able to play with him/her on my PS3 or Xbox 360?
Yes, you will only be able to transfer your character once. After transferring your character to PS4, Xbox One or PC, you can continue playing with him/her on your PS3 or Xbox 360 but the progress you make while playing is not shared to the character you transferred to your new version.
Will PC players also receive the exclusive upgrade content like the Dodo and Dukes?
Yes indeed! The content detailed above will be available to returning players on all three new platforms.
Will any of these updates being made for the new systems be also made available for the previous generation of consoles?
The vastly enhanced graphics and many other gameplay updates on the new versions of Grand Theft Auto V are really only made possible by virtue of the powerful new hardware of the new consoles and PC. Some of the other updates such as the upgrade content detailed above are being designed exclusively as a reward for returning players so those will not be released on the previous versions; however do stay tuned for more updates to be made available for Grand Theft Auto Online across all platforms and we’ll have more information on that soon.
Will my created Jobs transfer over to the new systems?
Yes, any Jobs you’ve published in GTA Online using the Creator tool will transfer over so that you and others can continue playing them on the new platforms. Please be aware however that Leaderboards, Snapmatics, Playlists and bookmarks are unique to the console generation you made them on so those will not carry over. (GTAV photographers should get ready to take all-new high-res Snapmatics!)
Will 30-person GTA Online sessions include competitive modes such as Races and Deathmatches?
Yes, they will! GTA Online on the new systems will support 30 players not just in Free Roam but in competitive modes as well (unless of course the Job you’re playing has been designed to be set to a specifically lower player max). We look forward to seeing what unique matches the community can create for a vastly increased number of players.
We know there’s many other questions players have about the new releases as well so please stay tuned for more information to come in the weeks ahead.

Great to hear that 30 players will be supported not just in Free Roam, but also all competitive modes. Am thinking Down the Drain could be carnage with 30 cars!
These pics are at 1080 - same as the game:
That Imponte
feck sake, now I want a PS4.
January 27 for PC?
More waiting...
So is it worth a while?
GTA IV was all right but never felt the need to play it again aftar I finished it.
Vice City is still the best GTA I played.

It's a good game, but nothing really to it. The character Trevor makes it worth a play alone though. Not a patch on Vice City.
Yeah, Vice City is awesome game to this day.
San Andreas was good, but was too big and too long and I finished but just for the sake of it, lost interest near the end..
Not that you ever get that many people in races anyway. Lucky to get 5 most of the time
That Imponte
Yep - although am guessing that won't be available in MP...which is probably a good thing if it is near invincible!!
Love the look of the stock cars too.
I really want this but I've got to get Far Cry first.
Assasins Creed, Dragon Age and then this before Christmas.
Well, a mass Caf race like old times should be fun.
There were a more than a few races back then that it would have been great to be able to share the video afterwards!
Let's hope I'm better at this than Fifa ffs.
I was planning to get this but not anymore, the online features are still missing. I'll just wait for a price drop and get it next year, there's more than enough games to play.
It's only heists that haven't been released yet - the rest of online is there and has been improved since it was launched. Looking forward to this.
Thinking about the ability to record / share your footage and how that is perfect for GTA V rand saw this clip on GAF from back when the game launched:
Love his reaction!
Love his reaction!
A couple more:
Jesus, and can you imagine if it has Project Morpheus support at some point.
Interesting, I struggle to imagine what a GTA game in first person would look like.
First person mode.
Reason alone to buy it again.
Reason alone to buy it again.
OMG, first person looks too good I can't afford it!!
I can't afford it!!Here's the trailer:
