In GTA III the driving was a breeze and handled so smoothly. Why was VC and SA's car handling so laggy and unresponsive? Is it because of "muh realism" or the "sequel must be harder" meme?

I fucking hate SA's driving because running over peds kills your momentum

I played all 3 of those recently and it felt the same to me. did you play them all on ps2? its shit without the pressure sensitive buttons

VC had objectively better vehicle handling and anyone who's not a faggot shit-stirrer knows it (You)

pressure sensitive buttons were worthless

only thing they let you do was roleplay

gta3 had so many cars that would flip over on a dime. the landstalker was the most useless vehicle ever because it would just flip itself over.
everything in vc and sa is an improvement over 3's handling.

I hated the vehicle physics in IV at launch, but it's my favorite now in hindsight. Shit is weighty but you can still haul ass.

being able to control the acceleration is important for how the vehicles handle. doesn't work right on a keyboard

just like my ford explorer from the era. based realism

Only found the SA driving annoying at the very beginning but as you improve your CJ it turns way more comfortable. They messed up the Rhino controls though.

VC's map was connected in a difficult to remember way and a lot of the streets had swee[ing curves

Vice City was just GTA3 handling but vehicles were given a lower center of gravity so they wouldn't flip over so easily
San Andreas had different handling, which was awful. also it was a retarded decision to give cars unlimited air control - if you jumped off a mountain you could literally force a front flip turn into a backflip

skill issue

VC had slightly better handling than 3, I've no idea what you're talking about. San Andreas driving is way worse than the other two, with part of that being because you have a stupid driving skill meter that you develop over the game.
