I see it completely differently. There have always been these small discussions within threads between a few users that doesn't necessarily mean derailing.

And GTA is a huge game. Both on consoles and on PC. Of course console fanboys will try to use it in their favor and PC gamers will write what they think about it. Also SW is in a situation where new consoles are around the corner so a lot of discussion about that and what PCs position is at the moment.

Common, no reason to see this as derailing a thread or trolling and threatening with moderations ! This place is all about discussion, let people discuss this if they want. Trolling and derailing implies something bad imo, what bad has come out of this thread ?

I wrote my reason why I'm not getting this on consoles. People don't need to agree with me and heck, I might even end up getting this on PS3 and 360. But it's an inevitable fact that GTA V will be coming to PS3, 360 AND PC and that there will be comparisons between the versions.

The blatant trolling does need to stop, people who only troll and add nothing to the thread they are posting in -- often with brash accusations that they just pull out of their ass.
The vast majority of the "discussion" you refer to is nothing more than a shit throwing contest between one troll and another user(or another troll).

Hell, any mention of PC gaming will derail a thread because of the perceived vast superiority of the PC platform by the user who brought it up and the general pompous nature that if you pick it up on any other platform you are receiving a gimped and unquestionably inferior version -- which is a blatant trolling and nothing more.

I don't remember it being that bad under the old ToU.

Davekeeh

It's definitely worse now

But you don't go through a TOU change and expect everyone to act like before. You change the rules then the posting habits change. What Wasdie wants is for everything and everyone to act like the old TOU under the new rules which just isn't gonna happen.

You gotta adapt to the current situation. Going around waving your mod status at everyone is a dick move and you don't see Adobe or Hazy doing it like that.The way Wasdie's acting is the way casey got his mod status removed


Wasdie should stay moderator, he's doing a good job

Pretty sure you've complained about him modding you and locking your threads.

Prove me wrong. Its well documented that the PS3 had no games till the middle of the last gen.

PS3 had plenty of games before 2009.

Such as? There is only one game that was any good and that was MGS4, maybe Heavy Rain.

I agree he should stay, but he should also learn to keep his mod powers out of conversations. It ends up looking like he's throwing a tantrum

Believe me if it WERE the old TOU you'd have been banned a long time ago

seanmcloughlin

Of course he should stay ! I'm not doubting his ability as a mod and I don't hope anyone is, but he shouldn't threaten with moderations to people that want to simply discuss things here in SW.

People are calling for the old ToU back, I know I want it back. SW under the old ToU was a fun place, you have to think about your responses otherwise you'd get modded for it. Trolls were proper trolls back then.

Posters had to be smart to survive under the old rules. Now any and every jonny-come-lately just posts "lolxsystem" a dozen times a day just to get their post count up.

Heavy Rain came out in 2009. I think Uncharted came out in 2007. When MGS4 came out is when I started to want a PS3.

Truth be told, you genuinely are getting an inferior version as the current crop of games are crippled by the current consoles hardware.

GTA Online comes out October 1, 2 weeks after GTA V releases.

http://www.computerandvideogames.com/424569/gta-online-to-launch-2-weeks-after-gta-5/

Apparently you'll get a code to download something that unlocks it. The devs want to treat it as it's own game.

XVision84

Thats a great way to approach it, you get one game -- live, play, appreciate one game then get treated to another.
I do wonder how many people will only be half finished with the single player and then never finish it because the get so sucked into the multiplayer.

While I do agree with you in a way. Where do you draw the line ? Everyone has a certain BIAS, I think even mods have that. You are simply saying: mod all the PC elitists.

That's biased against a certain group here and that attitude would never make you a mod I'm sorry.

But I'll explain what I do agree with: not every discussion here is an interesting one, I don't get involved with all of them here in SW so perhaps what I wrote was to specific to be aplied to SW as a whole. And yeah: there are people that troll for a sport. I wouldn't be against banning them

But if you would ban all the fanboys here that can't bring any worthwhile arguments to the table than you would limit the population of SW to 10 and it would become a boring place.

Some people on here just troll and never have anything interesting to say. Banning them would not be a big loss. But if you start being to severe and biased towards a certain group you are not capable of cleaning this place up and I'd rather it stay the way it is then.

The word 'inferor' doesn't always work in this situation though -- as it very often is not inferior and just boils down to one version having something the other version doesn't.
Which is hardely something to scoff at.

i hope rockstar never brings this to pcSweenix

But shit like that ^^^ is blatant trolling, to go back to what this whole thing started from. That comment should be deleted and the user should be moderated.

The console version would be superior in this case since a lower fps makes the game more cinematic.

I do wonder how many people will only be half finished with the single player and then never finish it because the get so sucked into the multiplayer.

So its a complete add-on then, not included on the disc(s)?

Rockstar North president Leslie Benzies said GTA Online could have launched at the same time as the main game, but that the studio considers it to be "a different entity, a separate thing".

He explained: "It'll be GTA Online; it's not part of GTA 5. Obviously it's set in the GTA 5 engine, but it's going to grow and evolve into its own thing." Access to GTA Online will come for free with every retail copy of GTA 5.

That could be read in so many different ways, but he also said its just a code that you download -- so it seems its on the disc and you just turn it on in a way after two weeks.

"When it launches, you'll have an extra character on your Switch Wheel. Instead of choosing Franklin, Michael or Trevor, you'll select your multiplayer character and you'll be sucked straight in there," Benzies explained.

Actually it did. PS3 sales went up the month that LBP came out.

[QUOTE="clyde46"][QUOTE="heeweesRus"]Um, yeah they did. MGS4 outscored all of them.heeweesRus
Only MGS4 did and was that a system mover on the same scale as what MS had at the time? No, no it was not.

LittlebigPlanet also outscores every 360 exclusive on MC.

And? Taking that was in that GS video in another thread, the whole hardcore vs softcore. Most games don't care about MC, hell most won't of even heard about it. They follow the hardcore market and at that time the hardcore market was securely placed in MS's pocket.

MC is the industry standard though.

It may well be, average Joe still doesn't care though.

I don't remember it being that bad under the old ToU.

seanmcloughlin

It's definitely worse now

But you don't go through a TOU change and expect everyone to act like before. You change the rules then the posting habits change. What Wasdie wants is for everything and everyone to act like the old TOU under the new rules which just isn't gonna happen.

You gotta adapt to the current situation. Going around waving your mod status at everyone is a dick move and you don't see Adobe or Hazy doing it like that.The way Wasdie's acting is the way casey got his mod status removed

umm...what?

Wasdie should stay moderator, he's doing a good job

Davekeeh

I agree he should stay, but he should also learn to keep his mod powers out of conversations. It ends up looking like he's throwing a tantrum

Believe me if it WERE the old TOU you'd have been banned a long time ago


I don't agree. He's just keeping order.

Also if you have an issue with the man just PM him about it

He's not keeping order because he can't. The new TOU wont' allow him too so he's egtting pissy about the fact he can't throw out moderations and he's waving his power around at everyone.

I would PM him if he wasn't so brazen about it and saying he's gonna mod for us doing what the board was created for

[QUOTE="R4gn4r0k"]

I see it completely differently. There have always been these small discussions within threads between a few users that doesn't necessarily mean derailing.

And GTA is a huge game. Both on consoles and on PC. Of course console fanboys will try to use it in their favor and PC gamers will write what they think about it. Also SW is in a situation where new consoles are around the corner so a lot of discussion about that and what PCs position is at the moment.

Common, no reason to see this as derailing a thread or trolling and threatening with moderations ! This place is all about discussion, let people discuss this if they want. Trolling and derailing implies something bad imo, what bad has come out of this thread ?

I wrote my reason why I'm not getting this on consoles. People don't need to agree with me and heck, I might even end up getting this on PS3 and 360. But it's an inevitable fact that GTA V will be coming to PS3, 360 AND PC and that there will be comparisons between the versions.

R3FURBISHED

The blatant trolling does need to stop, people who only troll and add nothing to the thread they are posting in -- often with brash accusations that they just pull out of their ass.
The vast majority of the "discussion" you refer to is nothing more than a shit throwing contest between one troll and another user(or another troll).

Hell, any mention of PC gaming will derail a thread because of the perceived vast superiority of the PC platform by the user who brought it up and the general pompous nature that if you pick it up on any other platform you are receiving a gimped and unquestionably inferior version -- which is a blatant trolling and nothing more. 

It is an unquestionably inferior version.

I feel that nearly every thread gets derailed now with pointless fanboy showdowns.

Now since the ToU has relaxed this place isn't even a good place for news anymore. A thread pops up about GTA V online and it quickly turns into a PC vs. Console debate, something completely unrelated and beaten to death by same group of people.

Wasdie

That's funny because I've seen "informative" threads (one of mine included) got locked immediately because they weren't "system wars" enough. Meaning, the thread did bring news, which Wasdie points out here as something he misses, but it didn't offer enough "ownage" material to be in this Forum section.

Umm...

I don't think this is really a competition anymore. This is easily going to be the best game of the 7th gen, maybe one of the best ever made. 

Holy shit.

Wasdie

Yeah dude I have always loved this series nd they never fail to deliver in my case. I hate to play fanboy and I am very excited about watchdogs, but right now GTA 5 is looking a lot more impressive. But I want to play them both before I judge.

Yes I know i just injected a game in a thread about another game, to compare them when no one asked me too. I hate me as well.

People are calling for the old ToU back, I know I want it back. SW under the old ToU was a fun place, you have to think about your responses otherwise you'd get modded for it. Trolls were proper trolls back then.

you really want it back exactly how it was? it was pretty horrible and i cringed almost every time i went into the ask the mods forum. people could get modded for not fully backing up their opinion.
