Author Topic: Why did R* put weird physics engine that makes lame air moves with motos? (Read 4423 times)

VC was okay. SA was also okay. But i can't understand why does the air moves in IV look fucked-up. It doesn't have any taste or stylishness. It's just awkward imo.

What do you think of this? Is there only me that blaming air moves in GTA IV?

Because they failed at trying to make the game SO realistic

I think the engine and physics are unique, but not realistic. The engine is fine for stunting, but it's hard to handle the vehicles because they act like they're heavy as fuck

VC is awesome, but SA is gay and now so is IV! Is there a connection here?

I dunno..

The physics engine is completely different to the one they created for SA / VC therefore the kind of air-control available will have different results. You must also understand that stunters are more likely to have motorbikes flying much higher than what would happen with the standard IV player and therefore have more time for the move to start looking weird etc

i think the flips in IV look stylish and fresh

maybe because they weren't trying to make a game where people could launch a moterbike hundreds of feet in the air?

everything else is realistic as fuck.. get over it.

We stunt to do the impossible, things that wasn't ment to be done. GTA IV is no differen't. We will start doing methods and shit like you won't believe once it comes on PC. Like SA, people said it was impossible to stunt in, now look at it.

SA physics are fine. I prefer VC's cause it's less heavy felling yeah but still I crack open SAMP and can play for hours.

They don't give a shit for stunting so why they should make stuntable physics?

Did someone said they're not stuntable...? They may just be a bit unrealistic.
