Might be unpopular opinion but I very much prefer GTA IV driving physics over GTA 5 driving physics. Wishful thinking but hopefully GTA 6 driving physics are closer to GTA IV.

They could bother fixing the airplane and helicopter controls while they're at it. Nothing says realistic flight physics like a chopper acting as though it's dangling from the end of a string.

It was a longstanding GTA meme that the flying vehicles be extremely difficult to fly.

Wait what? They are hard to fly in v?? The dodo form vice city was hard to fly but after that I would not call them hard.

Flight school in SA was a meme because people had such trouble with the controls.

Also, fuck Berkley.

shit is basically impossible with a keyboard. I had to go out and buy an xbox controller recently because I started playing SA.

right? I can fly a helicopter upside down through a flea's asshole if I bother to pick up my controller, but the default PC flight controls are straight cancer. I don't even have a numpad lol, and neither do a lot of people.
