At least the install is going quickly for me. I am confused by the PEGI rating though but then again I don't pay much attention to the case and assumed it was a BBFC rating before I read your post. I hope this blows me away because as much as I enjoyed it on ps3 the loading times and graphics were a bit meh.

I can't figure out how to move quickly while sneaking in first-person. In third-person, you can break into a stealthy jog by holding the run button (X by default) down while sneaking, but holding the run button in first-person (L3) causes me to go into regular non-stealthy sprinting. Is there a way?

e: Never mind – just figured out that first-person sneaking speed depends on how much you're tilting the movement stick. Neat.

I think pressing X works for this still, but I've only used sneaking like twice so far. Also walking speed in first-person is also dependent on how much you're tilting the stick. No more having to hold down X all the time.

I must be starting to suck at video games, because I think First Person is really strange and awkward to control. Otherwise, this is a pretty game.

nah compared to other first person games it is clunky and rough. there is a reason the controls on battlefield, call of duty, halo, destiny, etc etc are all nearly identical.

1/18/14 Update: This issue has now been addressed for PlayStation®4 and Playstation 3 users, and will be addressed for Xbox One and Xbox 360 users by tomorrow. Xbox One players can still log in to Grand Theft Auto Online but will not be able to transfer characters until the fix is in place.

The only problem remaining is successfully getting that gigabyte-some patch from PSN successfully :argh:

I'm really impressed with how good the first person shooting feels, and just how much better the game looks.

How is the first person shooting in GTA Online? Are you only put in free aim lobbies if you're playing First Person?

Or are you stuck losing to everyone who has 3rd person auto-aim enabled?

So far I've read that to get the hang of it, increase the FOV and go crazy in free roam for a bit. My friend said it helped him ease into it for missions because he didn't feel as overwhelmed.

I on the other hand am poor and can't buy it until late December :(

Haven't tried online shooting yet. Honestly the movement reminds me of P.T. and the shooting reminds me of ARMA more than Destiny or COD.

I believe Beeb's argument is what is the point of having a cone of vision displayed if they don't even respect it?

like yes, if it were a real human then rearview makes sense. But it's not, it's a videogame AI cop with a cone of vision straight out of Metal Gear Solid on your minimap and yet, there you go.

There's no difference at all since all PS4 games install entirely to the hard drive.

I'm just used to Xbox's simplicity: Select Game to Buy -> Buy -> Auto downloaded.

So let me get this straight. PS4 seems to be: Select Game to Buy -> Buy appropriate funds -> Buy -> Go to Info -> Download.

Now I'm really wondering what all they added. Seems like there might be a lot more to it than what we've been told and gleamed from streams and a few hours of play.

Oddly I find the new songs to be almost surprising just in the fact that I'm not used to them being in the game. It's weird. I think social club said I had 96 hours logged, but that was for a second run through save, so it's close to double that for the PS3 version, so I'm just super used to that radio playlist. I think the first time a new song, Feel Good Inc., started playing it startled me into hitting a stoplight. Granted that might've been due to still getting used to first-person driving, hooray for knowing what speed I'm going in a GTA game though!
