BrannIsLeet Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Picked up the game last night and have been having horrible pop in issue's. Anytime I'm driving through Los Santos at a fast speed, garbage cans, traffic lights, mail boxes, and even whole buildings will just suddenly appear out of nowhere. I've read mutiple fourms about R* saying to not install the "play" disc on the HDD and I haven't, I did however read if you install it on a USB that it can help with the pop ins... Just bought one today and still no luck. Getting really annoyed with this. Just wanted to know if anyone else has had this issue and if anyone can offer any advice on what to do. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethereal235 Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Do you have both discs installed? If you install the 'Play' disc, then it can't load all necessary info from the HDD fast enough and things get choppier. Try running it from the disc, or using a USB drive to hold the 'Play' disc data. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I have the "install" still on the HDD and the "play" on a Usb jumpdrive i just bought today to try and fix the pop in issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spock Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Yeah I didn't install the disc and the first cutscene was fucking atrocious. Stuff just randomly appearing on the screen. It happens all the time and I've never seen it this bad in any game. Sometimes I'll be driving and a sign will just appear and I'll hit it.

DAnDaRk11 Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I have installed both discs and it is running really well. I did notice some pop-in during the opening credits but nothing since then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barad Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Also installed both discs, I've tried driving moderately fast on the highway but the game has been consistent so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Try buying it on PC. The 360 is eight years old and only has 512MB of RAM. It's not a magic box, it's a piece of electronic equipment. A PC from eight years ago won't even meet the minimum requirements of the PC version. --- That being said ... I am not having nearly as bad issues with pop-ins or framerate drops EXCEPT when I'm at high speeds (which is pretty much how it was in GTA IV).

BrannIsLeet Posted September 17, 2013 Author Share Posted September 17, 2013 I keep messing around with it and it's awful. Driving moderatly fast through the city and the whole map disappears. Really dissapointed in this, thought it was going to be a awesome way to end this current generation of consoles. But I am far from impressed.

Spock Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 thought it was going to be a awesome way to end this current generation of consoles. But I am far from impressed. I think it's perfect. The game is extremely fun, but it shows us that an upgrade to new hardware is most definitely necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AshBashhXD Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 My brother and I are having real bad issues too. (Two different copies on two different consoles) - Characters going invisible, textures not loading, items and cars spawning randomly. A car randomly drove straight through a a building while I was going down a side road and hit me from the side (With no driver inside also) and jumping/walking through 'solid' walls and getting stuck in an underground car park and having to quit and reload. I was expecting a lot better than this considering the amount of 10/10 reviews it got. - And no I don't have the "play" disc installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
km16 Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I've been playing all night since 12:45am, slept for two hours, many missions in and have no issues except when in jets. Minor things here and there when in an incredibly fast car but nothing to gripe over here, and I have only the install disc installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crimson Ridley Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Pretty much no issues so far. Install disc installed on my HDD, and Play disc installed on my USB stick. I've had no slowdown, no issues with the framerate and very, very minor pop-up. Are you guys sure your consoles aren't knackered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JelmerF Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I have both discs installed, and only see an occasional popup in the distance. Especially when I fast travel with a cab. Also some textures need a second to sharpen out a bit sometimes. Could there be a difference with later models of the xbox 360? I have a slim model, maybe that hard drive is a bit faster then older/earlier models? Just a theory. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spock Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 So I guess Rockstar was dumb to tell us not to install? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aceman417 Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 So I guess Rockstar was dumb to tell us not to install? You can't really say that. They probably had some issues while playing the game with both discs installed, and decided it was better to warn people not to do it, rather than coming out in 3 weeks time and saying 'oh yeah, we should have warned you not to install both discs'. It is basically just saving their arses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfmv lfc Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 I had the same issue. I found it has nothing to do with the game but it was my xbox. After switching to my 360 slim it has worked fine for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not having nearly as bad issues with pop-ins or framerate drops EXCEPT when I'm at high speeds (which is pretty much how it was in GTA IV). First off, you are an idiot. People that buy it for consoles either don't own a high end gaming rig or would rather play games with friends that own it on consoles. The whole buy it for PC comment is simply an attempt to troll. Secondly, it is idiotic for you to compare this game running on an 8 year old PC to the Xbox. Just because the xbox hardware is 8 years old, the game (like every other game) has seperate builds for every console, PC included. This allows devs to ensure that their game runs as smoothly as possible on all systems. The reason an 8 year old PC can barely run it is because the PC version is built for new PCs in mind.

Ethereal235 Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 Seems like the game is really variable in performance. Works fine for me. To the installers of the 'install' disk, did you open the disk and install from there? Because it doesn't load a single 8 gig file (4 files around 2 gigs each instead), so I think it's a different process than installing it from the dashboard.
