The fist fighting in this game is awful.

Actually, I take that back, the melee fighting overall is horrible. You can just dodge and counter every hit from another player, there is nothing you can do about a counter attack, and it matters on who gets the first hit, a guy who knows how to dodge can win a melee battle against a guy with a machete. The best melee weapon is a gun, one hit kill, nobody ever uses melee weapons. I think they should have kept it the same as fist fighting in Red Dead Redemption, just add the ability to actually kill someone bare handed.

GTA4 had better fistfighting

What's infuriating is when the player decides that kicking someone is a better alternative than using a damn hatchet.

Fighting in GTA IV however... remember when it would actually take a blow in the head to kill someone? If not, they would just get knocked out and walk away like they actually looked injured?

in gtao sometimes if the enemy is lagging like hell the hit gets counted more then one hit.

ya i dislike the melee too... im just bad at it. love every other kind of fighting thought...guns, tanks, jets, helis ect

[EsotericEgo]

It isn't great no, but stabbing people with the broken bottle seems to be the most efficient way of doing melee, apart from bashing someone with your gun.

The best part is when you dodge but still get hit

Yeah, I really don't know what the point of melee weapons is. Pistol whips are a one hit kill, where some melee weapons can take 3 or more.

Well, melee hits are insta kill/knockout if it is a sudden hit, like if you walk up to a unsuspecting balla and attack once with your fists, it will insta KO him if he doesnt dodge it.

That is wrong.
Driving physics, body ragdolls and cop realism was 110% better in GTA 4

I have to say I liked the driving in 4. It took a little getting used to since it wasnt arcadey like it is in 5 but it felt better to drive once you had it down. I also preferred how the choppers handled in 4 to 5. Not saying 5 is bad but I liked how 4 handled some stuff.

Realism in video games is not always better. I think r* did a good job keeping it as a gta game not some rl simulator with slight arcade effects.

Sorry realism was the wrong word, I meant "Actually True" because in real life when you walk next to a cop they don't arrest you, or in real life when you walk next to a citizen they don't call the cops. So your saying GTA V was a RL simulator? Seriously? GTA V is a joke honestly everything about GTA IV was so much better. Driving physics, ragdolls, cops, everything except graphics and MP.

just shoot him in the face

unless your in a ring there is no such thing as a fair fight
