    Default GTA V, First impressions - What the f*** happened?

    This is my first impressions of GTA V, and I gotta say, I'm kinda disappointed. I've tried to narrow it down to some major points.

    First of, the driving physics that I liked so much from GTA IV, is completely gone.
    You can now make 90 degree turns doing 100 miles and hour, cars no longer spin out of control if you don't mind your acceleration, cars cannot get stuck when flipped over, and you can now turn and change how your car behaves in mid-air doing jumps.

    Second of, the car deformation which I was a huge fan of, is now also gone. I you somehow fail the 90 degree turn with 100 miles and hour and crash into the house in front of you, your car will only get a slight dent or scratch, compared to being completely wrecked and almost unuseable in GTA IV. This, is probably one of the biggest disappointments to me.

    Third of, the way the guns behave in firefights has also turned rather "arcadey". Weapons don't really have recoil or accuracy anymore, and will pretty much hit the exact same spot, even when holding down the trigger with automatic weapons. Alround weapon accuracy has been improved, and the AI's aim is over the top precise, whether it's an elite SWAT unit, or a hill-billy with a shotgun. The shootouts lost their excitement to me because of this.

    My fourth point is the police. Jesus christ. They-know-everything.org #illuminati
    I mean seriously, go ahead and punch a guy in the middle of the desert, I dare you!
    The cops will be on you faster than you can say "Dafuq?!?!"
    Rockstar has been working on this game for I don't how many years. Why is it that the police don't have "attention regions"? I mean, ofcourse the cops won't be as fast to respond to a crimescene out in the desert, as they would in a high-class white neighbourhood. I'm baffled by this.

    The things that I would've loved to see would've been;

    + Improved cardeformation. Vehicles could get bent, ripped apart and torn in half.
    + Less AI accuracy, more damage on bullets, piercing of different surfaces.
    + Some sort of witness system, that could make it possible to get away with crimes.
    + More emersion with everyday people in form of small conversations.
    + An actual prison you'd have to bail out, do time in or escape from when getting busted.

    I mean, this is just a small portion of what is on my mind right now.

    So far, I'm not impressed, and that's a shame considering I've waited I don't know how many years for this game. And right now, it feels more like GTA: Saints Row, than GTA V.

    I hope you will share your views on GTA V with me.

    Neither enemy, nor friend. I am back from a world where such words are meaningless.
