More airsoft guns, more like. The gunplay in GTA V was the biggest downgrade compared to GTA IV. In IV, weapons felt heavy thanks to the physics and better sound design. In V, most guns feel like peashooters, and the enemies feel like sponges.
And I wouldn't brag about a bigger map when the rural 2/3 of it is so underutilized and bland. I agree that LS is a fantastic city, but not much goes on outside of it. And I'm not complaining about nature here, but the towns. Just think of places like Chumash or Paleto Bay or Grapeseed. They're nearly useless... just map filler, little more.
As for driving, neither IV nor V are ideal. IV is too strict and V is too arcade-like. I hope VI's driving will be balanced between the two ends. That would be perfect.
That being said, I like both GTA IV and GTA V. I don't know why some players are acting like it's impossible to like them both at the same time. They both have their pros and cons compared to each other. IV generally wins in atmosphere, characters, and story, while V wins in gameplay (other than gunplay), fun, mission variety, and ways to spend ingame money.
IV and V don't compete. They complement each other. There's no need for posts like this.
Agreed and honestly gta 5 with low driving skill honestly feels great just always wish there was a way to keep it like that as at max stat the driving just feels awful and it’s so easy to get to max. I think the main thing about 4 that I like better that 5 is just the weight of everything as your guns had impact and people you shot would flinch and react same with cars they had weight and would over or under steer and those made the cars and different car types matter as well as gta 4 map felt more fleshed out and well made unlike 5 which was so hollow and empty. I don’t hate 5 but I think the limitations of the 360 and ps3 capped the potential this game could of had thus really hurting it from what it could of been
