GTA 5 First Person Mod Delayed PC Release?

GTA 5 first person mod is the main reason why you would buy the game again for a whole new experience. This could have been the reason for a delay PC gamers had to face.

HatsuneMikuDes4190d ago

I think they mean "first person mode" and not "mod". And this new mode is probably not the cause of the delay. I'd reckon they delayed it because they wanted to fix the DRM before release. But that's just a guess.

Meltic4189d ago

DAMN SCREW DRM.... hate that. Its bugging the game totally. Instead sell it for a decent price drop and people are gona buy it like flies...

umarsrao4190d ago

Have to try this at any cost!

"GTA 5 first person mod is the main reason why you would buy the game again for a whole new experience. " ummmmm WRONG!

Mizikiel4189d ago

No it's not wrong. That is the biggest reason I bought the game again.

bauer0074188d ago

Such a fad, third person is so much better!

jay24189d ago

This mode is nothing new and doesn't warrent over in the UK at least paying more money for a year old game, in any case there is no question in my mind it's not the reason for the PC delay, if they have it in two consoles for Nov 14 that are close to PC's then there's no reason why it can't go in the PC code.

Rockstar launches official marketplace for mods

Rockstar has launched an official marketplace for "every server and every player" to buy mods: Cfx Marketplace.

I wonder how much of this isn't just taken work of others who have modded for free.

Edit: Also, great way for R* to take popular ideas and build them into GTAVI based on demand.

fr0sty116d ago

What I see happening here is, R* is going to ban mods in GTA6 UNLESS you buy them from the marketplace and R* then gets a cut of that sale.

ActualWhiteMan116d ago

Ah, perfect timing with them taking down the Bully online fan mod. Greedy a$$ company.

Christopher116d ago

It's okay as long as they get a cut of the money.

fr0sty116d ago

Expect R* to force it on you.

Snookies12116d ago

Yep, right there with you. I'll happily donate to a mod creator if it looks really cool, or if I enjoy it. But expecting payment up front? Nope, not touching it.

IanTH116d ago (Edited 116d ago )

I'm not entirely sure how to read this, as it doesn't seem exactly like an exact parallel to Bethesda's paid mods shenanigans.

Rather than single player stuff, this appears to be aimed solely on Cfx Servers. From what I've gleaned, apparently Rockstar bought the Cfx mod team several years ago, coming a few years after weird contentions led them to ban a few of their members. Ultimately, the question is if they plan to keep this contained to only online/servers.

I have to guess to a degree yes. It'd be pretty hard to "force" paid mods for single player when modding files locally on your own machine, but much easier for servers they'll control. So perhaps this is their soft launch ahead of GTA6 online and they'll clamp down more tightly on non-official servers going forward? Ever since they've become a 1 or 2 property studio, I haven't really cared much for Rockstar stuff, so I'm not entirely up on everything surrounding this. Sounds like it has the potential to be problematic further down the line, but right now fairly easy to ignore...I think lol.

PlayStation Store’s top downloads of 2025

O'Dell Harmon Jr. writes: "Before we say goodbye to 2025, let’s take a look back and see what were the most downloaded games of the year. It was a great time for sports, shooters, and some new PlayStation VR2 games. Sports favorites topped the charts in US/Canada and EU, with NBA 2K26 and EA Sports FC26, respectively.

Juggernaut GTA V found a home in the top three for both regions, with new 2025 release Battlefield 6 claiming second place in the US. Fortnite took top place for free-to-play games, and Beat Saber continues its PS VR2 success."

FH5 4th in Europe compared to North America 14th. Not surprising.

LucasRuinedChildhood118d ago

I think it shows how shortsighted it was for Sony to let go of Evolution and not get them to make some sort of competitor (open world Driveclub?) 10 years ago.

bionicstar117d ago (Edited 117d ago )

its a hard bet to make. hindsight is always 20/20.

Christopher117d ago

After Driveclub's reception, hard to say it would have done well enough to compete. It's easy to dream of such a thing, but to make it happen? It's taken how long for CoD to be dethroned? And it was dethroned by Hogwart's Legacy and has gained it right back just the next year.

I would like to see a list that has both free to play and paid games together, but at least we have this.

To this day GTA5 is a top downloaded game and it makes me wonder if the industry is really ready for GTA6. I imagine almost nothing else will sell during that game's release window.
