READ IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT GTA V ENHANCED IS ABOUT

[CxlciumMMIV]

GTA 5 on PC is receiving the content that the next-gen console releases (PS5/Xbox Series X) exclusively had. This includes:

*ray tracing features only available on PC such as ambient occlusion and global illumination, plus ray traced shadows and reflections first debuted on consoles
*fsr1, fsr3 and dlss3 support
*faster loading times
*enhanced support for higher resolutions, higher aspect ratios, and higher framerates
*enhanced audio with support for Dolby Atmos and improved fidelity of speech, cinematics, and music
*brand new vehicles on GTA:O (5 vehicles to be exact)
*wildlife fauna in GTA:O (just like in singleplayer)
*access to the GTA+ subscription
*brand new menus including an overhauled landing tab (the main menu) & a "Career Progress" tab for GTA:O
*4,000,000$ head-start and the option to select to become either an Executive, Gunrunner, Nightclub Owner, or Biker in the Career Builder. Basically you get the properties for free as a head-start including 4mil cash
*the anti-cheat is here to stay. while I'm strongly against it because on my mid-range rig it has ruined the game's performance and the cheaters clearly aren't gone, I suppose maybe they've made improvements to it
*new upgrades to already existing vehicles. this includes previously exclusive liveries and I believe the top speeds are much higher on the console versions. don't quote me on this though
*voice chat moderation

If you're worried that your rig does not meet the minimum requirements then you can simply continue enjoying the "Legacy" version of the game which is the game we've been playing for the past 10 years now

Regarding FiveM, they've stated that "support for FiveM will continue uninterrupted while we work to extend support for it on the upgraded version"

edit: Thank you for the awards kind strangers ❤️

oh so this is pretty much only online stuff to bring the pc version of GTAO on par with the console versions?
well color me absolutely disinterested then

[Dead Pixel]

So you're just going to ignore all the ray tracing and DLSS/FSR additions to the upcoming Enhanced Edition? The features that people are most excited about.
Okay....

I'm so glad Rockstar is wasting their time on this idiotic nonsense instead of working on GTA6 and RDR3! Woopee!

No, dude. The OP decided to, for some nonsensical reason, completely omit the bulk of the enhancements. This new Enhanced Edition is also bringing full ray tracing support (ray traced reflections, shadows, global illumination, and ambient occlusion). It's also bringing DLSS 3 and FSR. It's also updating the TAA (anti aliasing), so that it doesn't look as blurry when using native TAA rather than DLSS.

As I said, the OP decided to NOT list the most interesting/enticing enhancements, for some strange reason.

They ARE working on GTA 6.... That's still scheduled to release late 2025. But by all means, complain about a free upgrade to GTA 5.

Kanye would have never let this slide

Update to a dead ass 10+ year old game, this stupid crap pulls time, money, resources, and people away from other projects dim wit! Add VR and/or wheel and pedals support and then we'd be talking about something worth doing!

I didn't "decide" anything, I'm not hired by Rockstar to list all of their features lmfao. I wanted to summarize what they're bringing to the table with this version of the game. You can also simply look for the official blog post made by them if you really wanna dwelve into all of it, although I updated my own post with all of the stuff they've mentioned they're adding. No need to be all worked up, take a hike.

I want online content in SP. They force me to download it anyways, why can't I use it?

[GustavGlaven]

Did they enable linux support in the anti-cheat?

[Dr. Dro ඞ]

The only negatives are the "chat moderation" (really? on a game that depicts what GTA does?) and... at least for now, the kernel mode anti cheat. Having Battleye will basically be a dare to cheaters initially, they're gonna find all ways around it, and then it'll stabilize on what it always used to be, I suppose.

No, Rockstar put an article saying it is not supported on Linux or Steam Deck.

Well, hopefully they enable it on GTA VI, I stopped using windows a few years ago already.
