Gawdamn! How many times do they need to re-release this game?!

still have this game unpacked on 360.

I don’t think that is what he was talking about. I think it is the Premium Edition that would kickstart the Pro/ X patches, which would be available as a free download when the Premium Edition releases. Though, I think if you asked Pro and X owners if they minded paying for a 4K(or whatever the final resolution would be for each machine) patch, with some other visual upgrades... I think you would find that many, myself included, would be first in line. Just to see the game at PC high to ultra levels on the new consoles.

Would that happen? no... I don’t think Sony or Microsoft would want any developer/ publisher setting that kind of precedent for X and Pro upgrades... as you can imagine, especially with the popularity of stuff like loot boxes, developers would milk it for all its worth and nickel and dime gamers for visual upgrades. Which would just piss gamers off. Though, from the developers point of view.. they are taking time, money and manpower in order to provide the patches... so, where’s the incentive?

I think we are safe, though, from developers charging for X and Pro patches. It would set a bad tone for games to come and make many gamers weary over buying the mid-gen upgraded consoles, knowing that they’d also have to pay for the games and patches to play them in 4K.

Regardless, all of this Pro and X patch talk is just that, until Rockstar comes out and says that they are working on them. Though I am keeping my fingers crossed, as this game was on the top of my list of those Id want patched to take advantage of the new systems abilities.

Who said anything about an enhanced PoS4.. this is an article about the Xbox one X.. Zero PoS4 tags. But not sure it's about X enhancements either, just the germans getting the complete edition of GTA V.

@Kaze24

The game hasn't received an update for X or Pro enhancements. The article mentions this edition could include X enhancements, which is why I mentioned the PS4 Pro. If one gets support it's likely the other will too.

They're too busy counting all the cash that the multiplayer element is generating to even contemplate any effort in providing single player DLC

GTA V is still a huge earner for them. They don't want their own games to compete against each other.

You never read my post properly. I never mention teams or staff issues. It's a simple case of Rockstar not wanting people to stop spending cash on online gtaV. This would happen if RDR2 released whist gtaV still makes huge money. They want to milk gtaV for every dollar. Only once this happens will rdr2 release. Expect it to be delayed again if shark cards are still raking it in.

Microtransactions are going nowhere. Some people spend upwards of $15,000 on them in a single game.

Honestly the game is good enough to be milked... I still play it... It's fun
