I've never played this so naturally I nabbed it.

That said my PC probably isn't up to the task.

So I'm trying to use a dualshock 4 to play gta v on my pc, but for some reason there seems to be some input delay? Like when I hold down R2 to shoot, I'd have to hold it down for a couple seconds before it starts shooting. Sometimes it won't even respond and I'd have to mash on r2 to get it to register. It also only seems that there is a delay with the shoot button. Movement and everything else seems good. I've tried using DS4windows and I've tried without it but the issue still persists. Keyboard and mouse is 100% fine and responsive however. Any idea what the issue is??

During the last hours, i noticed many new human bots with nothing at all playing Fortnine. Hmm...

Of course, millions of EGS account were created during that period and now Epic got more Fortnite clients. Really very smart from them.

Damn, after finally being able to download the damn thing, I neither receive the password reset nor the new Account confirmation for the Motherfucking Social Club.

For anyone who downloaded this game on Steam and want to play on EGS version you don't need to redownload just copy over the Steam GTA V files over to EGS and it works

So just to confirm, no mods will work on the EGS version? I tried to use the mod manager, which then crashed, and the game then said it needed to be activated... So I've uninstalled the lot and now redownloading!

GTA V does not allow gameshare on same PC even, i got GTA V on my account on Steam but my bros on their own Steam account can't play it which sucks ..

So thanks to Epic every user can just redeeem their own GTA V on their own account free :D

No point me having both Steam and EGS versions of GTA V downloaded waste of space i'll just keep EGS version which multiple users on my PC will use

Anyone find a way to have a game from the Epic store launch as a Steam shortcut or something?

Short version is I'd like to open up the game on Big Picture Mode with a single button press, if possible.

Depends on the game. Try adding as a normal non-Steam game, just point it to the executable. That doesn't always work, in which case you have to get creative.

Yes you will get coupons. As I said Epic is trying to make people spend money on the store.



May bad I was expressing myself wrong. Yeah you can have 1 coupon at the time but you will get new one if you used your old one.

The Epic store gave one coupon to everyone. You could claim it on the page, or it was given automatically when you bought a game. When people claimed GTA, the store gave them the coupon.

I claimed it on the page, then I got GTA, and I didn't get another coupon.

So no reason to think they will give a coupon for claiming free games when you have already claimed your "free" coupon.

That damn "Social Club" thing from Rockstar was a pain in the ass to setup. But wow I'm finally playing GTAV! Never did before. I'm able to max out much of the graphics since I have a 2060 Super and boy the game looks amazing as it is.

When I launch the EGS, I get stuck on a screen saying "Preparing the Epic Games Launcher". Is this happening to anyone else?

Someone please tell me that once we make it past the captcha that we never ever again have to do that to play the damn game. I'll happily play the PS3 version if it means I never have to click a fucking crosswalk every time I want to play.

nope you have to do it again. I clicked stay logged in, and remember details, the next time I ran it I had to do the damn captcha again.

Maybe its not all the time , but I've had to do it twice today.

The captcha is really ridiculous, it's one of those where it keeps popping new images in the grid when you click it and as if that's not annoying enough the transitions are really slow at times.

You might be able to get some mods working with FiveM. It includes a single player client that has its own plugin functionality. Install .asi's in the application data/plugin folder. The simple trainer worked, not sure about anything else though.
