It comes down to bandwidth. We want each version of the game to be the best it can possibly be, and that means having the core members of the original GTA V team working closely with the best PC developers from across all Rockstar studios-the same crew that did great work on the PC versions of Max Payne 3, L.A. Noire and GTA IV.

Same.

Seems like preloading on Steam goes much faster.

Rockstar lied about only needing 5 gigs to decrypt it so now I gotta delete and just redownload the whole loving thing from scratch. :negative:

90% done after having to delete my preload earlier and redownload it after release. And now Mortal Kombat X is unlocking in half an hour all of a sudden. Tonight is intense.

What an awesome PC port. One of the best I've seen.

After dicking around a bunch I've managed consistent 60 fps with nearly everything maxed on 2x msaa. The shadows behave kind of odd even when you have them all maxed out and there's the usual open world pop in jank but otherwise it looks and runs smooth as butter. Great stuff.

How do you get this game to use Big Picture mode's overlay

man nurse

I can't get this game to use Big Picture's steam overlay. If I launch the game in Big Picture it just uses the standard overlay anyway.

Alright, for any GTX 780 users or similar hardware, I've achieved constant 60 fps with no stuttering at 1080p with incredible graphical fidelity. Give this a shot.

The most important thing is to turn off the in-game vsync and force it through your control panel along with triple buffering. This completely eliminated the stuttering I was having as well as framerate drops.


After that, these are the settings I was able to push it to:

- 1920x1080
- DX 11
- Fullscreen
- AF 16x
- 2x MSAA + TXAA
- Reflection MSAA @ Off
- Textures, Environments, Water, Shadows, Shaders, Tesselation @ Very High
- Ambient Occlusion, Post FX, Grass, Particles @ High
- Reflections @ Ultra
- Soft Shadows @ Softer
- Long Shadows, Streaming While Flying @ On
- High Res Shadows @ Off
- Population Density/Variety, Distance scaling all @ 100%
- Extended Distance & Shadows both @ 60%


It's so loving smooth and good looking after I messed with it for a few days and got this configuration. Hope this helps anyone who's still dialing poo poo in.

Revising this a bit. Changing TXAA to FXAA and Extended Distance/Shadows from 60% to 30% finally hit the sweet spot.
