Finally got this working through a combination of black magic and "black" magic. This game has poor affects on my posting judgement. In any case i joined the bay 12 crew.

Bah...my rockstar account got hacked...and I was halfway done with the download...so that is gonna add at least another day of download time onto the already 3 day download -_-

So evidently rockstar hates fun and they made modding more difficult in GTA 5 for PC?

[Shadowlord]

Well, isn't that just lovely?

“I don’t see any basis for the claims that GTA V looks hard to mod,” said DrDaxxy, creator of the field of view mod. “In fact, all that I have seen points to the opposite, and the things that caused the most headaches for GTA 4 modders all seem to be either missing or already figured out because of the familiar engine. However, Rockstar may or may not ban people for modding, and they may or may not make modding harder in the future. Each theory is plausible and grounded in good reasoning, but ultimately pure speculation due to lack of knowledge about the game’s internals and Rockstar’s decisions. But I’m hopeful, as the things we do know and have evidence for all look very good for modders, and the GTA community has always been and is still full of highly talented modders. If I had to give you a timeframe, I think we’ll see cool things coming our way within weeks or months.”

Alright cool, from what I read they added safeties to make it harder to mod due to online play, but that may have just been hyperbole.

On a slightly related and definitely illegal note, the PC version of GTA V has been cracked. It took Chinese hackers about a day to bypass the DRM and make the game work on Windows 7 and two more days to make it work on Windows 8 and 8.1.
At this point, the pirated version is reported to be buggy - some missions are completely unplayable and CTDs occur very often.

[Graknorke]

Hey, it's not even been a week. Give them time.

[umiman]

Given the time it'll take to download the torrent (61GB jesus christ almighty), I'm sure it'll be fully patched by then.

Well to be honest, V1 of the crack was out yesterday morning my time, its 4pm the V1 of the crack could only work on Win7, then this monring they released the V2 wich seam to be working on all windows OS. They should REALLY try to stop using DRM its just that pointless wasting time and money for a mere 2-3 day before crack... Some games just cannot be played if you dont register wich is a good DRM in on itself, best DRM will always be making sure your game is more appealing legit than hacked. Such as good multiplayer component, content patch etc etc.

Ill be blunt and straight, im not playing legit, but i sure will be buying it, not because of DRM but because i want to play the multiplayer aspect of the game wich is impossible with an unlegit version.

It's $70 here in Canadaland. I'm waiting for the price to be a bit more reasonable.

Yeah, it's definitely not worth it for a 2 year old game I've already beaten. I feel like pricing could have been more fair for the re-releases, but whatever. People would complain any way you go about it.

[dennislp3]

I am amazed at how many people already bought it...and are buying it again...then complaining...I waited to get it on PC cause I knew it would be worth it...got it on sale to boot

[Cthulhu]

Even the repacks are impossible to download right now, it's the leechstorm.  I couldn't imagine trying to download a 60gb file with .15 ratio.

I bought it.  Haven't had a chance to play, I'll be able to play when I get home from class.  I did do the benchmark and it wonked out so I dunno the actual FPS but it looked pretty smooth.  Doubt it's 60fps but it's good.  I've got the recommended specs, 8gb, FX 8350, and a 3GB GTX 660.

[jocan2003]

I was lucky, took me 3 day to download the game with my crappy connection, then as soon i finish installing the game, 5 minute later the V 2 comes out, but yeah the leech storm makes the download speed soooo horrible. But well let's be honest those who bought and played it on console and had a successfull online game might only want to get a taste of the PC new feature wich arent enormous compared to the console game they would NEVER rebuy the game at 60+ pricemark unless well they have lots of money to spare wich seem to not be the case of many ppl.

Those who had the game on console should have received an email with a sale coupon or something....
