I don't know how I feel about the game so far (it's really complicated) but the server issues are driving me nuts. Is anyone else getting bad lag? Why the fuck would they choose to not use Xbox One server network is beyond me.

I want to know how the multi-player is. If it's anything like GTA 4 for pc, I'll buy it. Don't own a console.

I can tell you for certain that person was full of shit. On the XOne at least, the graphics are certainly next gen. In online and fast sections of gameplay however, there is fair amount of frame dropping, screen tearing, and artifacts, though.
As I stated in my first post, this appears to mainly be due to non-use of the massive, purpose built XOne server farm. They are using Uplay servers and I think it was a big mistake.

I've only barely explored the multiplayer, so I can't give you a complete review. The only thing I did other than free roam is racing. I mostly enjoy the racing mode, but it feels more arcade than simulator as far as the actual driving goes. Compared to GTA V on 360, the driving is far more twitchy and difficult. One aspect that is really annoying is depending on which view you select (in front of car, in car, above car or further above car) the look around control on the right stick is independent of your driving. This means that both the turn and look (left & right sticks) must both be used to take a turn or you'll end up not seeing the road your turning on to. There is no fixed view when the camera is above the car.

Has anyone bought it for PC yet? I was gonna post a thread but I thought I would just post in here. I read that it does have offline capabilities can anyone confirm this? I work in an area where our internet is probably jealous of how fast dialup is lol. Fine for web browsing and shroomery posting but not gaming.

I have the game but haven't had time to play it. Took 3 installs to get it to work. It kept installing in program files x86 but I had to manually install it into Program Files to get it to work. There is an offline mode but you'll need to add it to your uplay account first.

I bought it for PC.. However, I bought it from blockbuster australia (I live in the US), because it was on sale, for a real good price, before it even released. But it ended up being back ordered for a long ass time now,. It's supposed to ship in a few days they tell me though.
