I think V showcased a fantastic city but lacklustre countryside. I think RDR2 did the opposite, really made the wilderness come alive. GTA VI should be the love child of those two. We already see animals looking far better and far more present than they ever did in GTA V. All the development that went into RDR2 can be used here. I have no doubt the city will be great, both IV and V is proof, but I feel confident about the countryside too courtesy of the rootin tootin cowboy shootin simulator from back in 2018.Redirect Left wrote: ↑05 Dec 2023 09:08 It's certainly interesting, I hope the map is more interesting than V though. I find the V map more of an obstacle course, especially going from south to north, lots of nothing in the middle that does nothing for no one. I fear Rockstar are going even bigger, and I'm not sure they can populate it enough and make it all interesting. I think San Andreas was the most perfect size of a map, and a good ratio of mission critical and things to fill in the middle.
I've never played RDR1 or 2, so i've no idea what improvements they did the V engine. V had some animals which were mostly animated pretty basic, but were just a nuisance at best as you were going about your tasks.Chrill wrote: ↑05 Dec 2023 10:06 I think V showcased a fantastic city but lacklustre countryside.

This is a great example of how RDR2 looks, if you just want to see the world:Redirect Left wrote: ↑05 Dec 2023 10:40I've never played RDR1 or 2, so i've no idea what improvements they did the V engine.

I just hope they manage to pad it out right, and its not what amounts to basically wasteland.
I've been meaning to try that myself, although i am kinda scared of it turning into a hellscape of DLCs like Train Sim has become, even if it isn't already, i do fear given how long Train Sim have had that 'working' for them, that any other train sim will eventually end up the same.JohnFranklin523 wrote: ↑06 Dec 2023 07:04 I bought SimRail when there was a discount on Steam.
And I tried it last night. Very Fantastic, and much, much better than the Dovetail Train Simulator. It is worth the money.
Dovetail, who provides much more expensive DLCs, forces you to do annual subscriptions (TSW series), and offers you a "just so-so" game experience (compared to SimRail) with crashes, should come to its end soon.
What should I do next, perhaps invade nearby hostiles?We've not got snow yet (although it's expected to come down heavy in the next few weeks).Chrill wrote: ↑04 Jan 2024 09:02 So it's snowing a lot here. And it's cold.
In Western Sweden, a 30 kilometer (18 miles?) long row of cars is stuck since yesterday afternoon. More than 1000 people were trapped. The military are out with tracked vehicles to retrieve people. As of right now, many cars are still trapped and many people are still in them. Most people have either been able to drive away (they cut the metal fence dividing the two lanes, to allow the cars to turn back) or be evacuated from their cars, abandoning the cars in place.
So far, only one injury is reported (a diabetic who couldn't take their medicine) and they were transported to hospital.
In Stockholm, we're suffering from rougly -12°C (10°F) but at least the trains are still running so I made it to work just fine.
Also, triple post. Am I the only random one left?
Yes, must admit the miserable weather has finally started getting on my nerves, and I say this as someone from Manchester who is therefore used to crap tons of rain.
I checked the image on Wikipedia, it must be crispy.
oh wow, the coldest I've experienced is about -12'C and that was torturous, can't imagine going below -20!
Honestly, at those temperatures the number itself is irrelevant. Wind or humidity is what gets you. We had -14 C yesterday but it was not at all windy, so it was fine with some warm clothes. A few days ago, we had maybe -5 or -6 but it was really stormy. That was far worse. There's not much differing -12 or -21, other circumstances matter more.Redirect Left wrote: ↑05 Jan 2024 16:42oh wow, the coldest I've experienced is about -12'C and that was torturous, can't imagine going below -20!
