Trilogy Impressions (Grand Theft Auto: The Trilogy)
share your opinions, are you satisfied with this reissue?So far from GTA 3 Only positive emotions, since I do not care about all this "graphics from the simpsons" or whatever they call it, I just play and enjoy, I am nostalgic, I remember how I played this game as a kid, but did not pass it, I went through Vice City first , but I only ran a three-ruble note, but did not pass, so I’ll catch up, and then I’ll go to Vice City and San Andreas. Well, of course the review would be a little different if I played on the licensed version and not on the "folk"
It's sad for those people who spent money on the PC version of this trilogy, and as a result - got a block of access to the Rockstar Launcher, and how convenient it is to reduce everything to the phrase: "Because for technical reasons." (It's good that I didn't pre-order).
And there is something to compare, in 2016 I bought Batman Arkham Knight on Steam *. So there, due to the constant technical problems of the game, they gave you the whole series as a gift to the collection. There will obviously not be such goodies here.

Unfortunately, this is not a remaster, but the mobile versions of 2011-2013 transferred to the new graphics engine (in the google play market I now write a price of 5.49 euros per piece) with appropriate controls (mouse movement emulates the on-screen joystick control, and pressing keys - pressing the on-screen buttons) and the flaws and limitations remaining with the mobile version.
With the same success, they could sell originals with some enb mod and textures stretched to a higher resolution.
I still hope that the monkeys from Var Drum Studios just cheated the Rockstar and will finally take responsibility for it.
There was a gorgeous mod on VC, where the engine from 4 parts with ENB and 4k textures was used. Personally, I was expecting something similar from rockstar. Physics from Part 4 was in fashion, and the graphics were gorgeous, but now I look at the screenshots of the official remaster and I understand that Rocky has turned into EA. If only to cut down the grandmother, while crap they wanted on people buying their games. In vain they are so.

Then where did the helicopter turn and the tank turret turn in the aircraft go? :)

As for flying vehicles, it has not yet reached VC. And the turret of the tank turns mice
Played a little more, I will supplement the previous post:
GTA3
Pros (in my opinion):
1. Visually, the picture is not bad. Characters - controversial
2. When getting into a car, the hero starts faster than in the original
3. Seamless transition between cities
4. A lot of traced and redrawn objects. Many interiors are made in 3D
5. If you fail the mission, you do not need to go to the letter again.
Minuses:
1. Cars began to "kill" faster, the timing between ignition and explosion became shorter than in the original
2. Because of the greater "realism", the hero and cars are crushed by any physical objects that fall off from cars
3. The pedals have become "more physical", they have a stronger influence on the behavior of your car. If they bump into the body from the side, the door crumples and the car can be slightly taken away
4. Fucking sound of closing garages and vehicles in the last gears
5. We screwed the flashing lights to the police boat, but you can't use them. Why then?
6. Some missions have become easier, more time is given
7. Removed repetitions
8. The roofs seem to be patched up, but still have an old collision curve (somewhere you will stand in the air, not on it)
9. The machines have been prescribed the properties of a ped - you can kick with the same sound as if you were kicking a person. And cops can get angry
10. Some objects still do not have a collision - traffic lights in the subway between the rails, for example
11. Cars can spawn 5 meters away from you
12. Lack of control and settings on the NumPad - the tower of the tank is spinning with mice
13. At the beginning, the hero gets tired of running as quickly as Shepard from Mass Effect 2
14. Management is a little clumsy - if you are standing by edges and want to turn around, there is a chance of falling
15. Original bugs in place

And the turret of the tank turns with mice
I said about this, before (and on mobile phones as well) it was possible to turn with a fixed button and go back with the muzzle, but now they did it, as in CA.
And did you list a lot of simplifications in missions?
Toreno
I wonder where they got this idea, did they "come up with it" themselves, or was it in GTA 5? And so much of the 5, 4, CA and mobile versions is mixed in the remaster
Nikined
About "as before", I know, a billion times Vice City and GTA3 passed. These simplifications are just annoying. Reminds me of the default Mako controls in ME in the Legendary Edition
For example, in the mission "Pornokrad" they did 40 seconds. In Tony's mission, when it is necessary to blow up 3 trucks, again, the yuzi unwind much faster than in the original. In the mission with the booth in Portland (blue), when the triads are burned, on the basketball court they already see you from afar and try to get to you (a bonus group of triads, for which a small cash bonus is awarded). Glitches in the mission "Sayonara, Salvatore", when you are standing near the entrance, 3 mafia cars pass by, they write: "You have been noticed" and the mission continues as if nothing had happened. In the original, "we were not noticed by the mafia cars approaching the exit of Salvatore." In the mission "Goodbye to the Paparazzi", the target's boat travels much slower than in the original. That's all for now. Now I just got to Staunton. Then I will unsubscribe, what else I will notice
Fix the notifications on the site already. Nichrome is not comfortable
GTA 3:
1. After the Salvatore mission, the cartel's ship magically stands still again, only without a ladder
2. Vehicles can get stuck in each other
3. Traffic has become more intense
4. Rare cars drive around the city much more often - the same Mr. Whoopee was much more difficult to find in the original than it is now. Now they are almost everywhere
Ride in SA ... The
person who made the control of the planes wants to look in the eyes. Without words.
For 5k rubles is weak, IMHO.
While I pass San-Andreas on Xbox Series X, from the jambs noticed:
- You don't have to write about the models (but I'll write) - horror
- Cars spawn crookedly near the lowriders garage in Los Santos and near the auto center in San Fierro
- The game crashes after many missions in San Fierro (mainly at Vusi or the garage), you have to replay the previous mission, then you can already go through the next one. I feel that one day I will come across an impassable one.
- The control of the airplane at Zero does not lend itself to censorship at all
- As well as the control of the character under water
- And you will find yourself in the water soon - the bridge in the countryside, through which one of the races passes, stupidly does not appear. It appeared for 2 seconds and then disappeared again, but I managed to drive it.
- And other little things, of which there are many, but not particularly remembered
What made you happy? Interiors (albeit of low quality) instead of the usual textures, and reflections on cars (although on rusty Clover this is not at all appropriate). Everything. I went to put the original on the computer, and roll out the mods.
For GTA III - it was enough to see the elaboration of the car. On the screen above is a remaster, below is an assembly of gta3hq

In GTA 3, they did not touch car salons at all. I suspect that the rest of the parts are the same
SUDDENLY
Let's see what the 17-gigabyte update fixes: D
Although, as I understand it, thanks to the decision to add all the data into 1 file, when updating any little thing, 17 GB will still swing.
