How come every sandbox game not named GTA has horrible driving physics?

[Brandeezy]

Mafia
Watch Dogs
Arkham Knight
Sleeping Dogs
etc.

GTA 4 I think had the best so far, GTA 5 felt like a step backwards but still better than the rest.

cause gta 5 gets 5-6 years and 265 million dollars to put into their games

I found that Watch Dogs did driving and combat way better than GTA.

GTA's unrealistic driving fits how their games work so well, everything else just doesn't feel right.

 

[Cryptocurrency Scarface]

GTA 4's driving

That said it made the game challenging especially escaping from cops

 

[MeachTheMonster]

GTA physics are crap.

Watch Dogs and sleeping dogs was way better

 

[TransJenner]

GTA 4 driving sucked but the rag doll affect was


GTA 5 did it right but completely fukked UP the rag doll physics

 

[Mob H]

GTA4 driving was straight .

I must be living in a different world.

Gta driving mechanics have always sucked.

All open world games have been shytty to serviceable in that way.

I can't really think of any that stood out to me.

I liked the GTA 5 driving mechanics, 4 looking back was garbage...

 

[Paper Boi]

i forget how the physics were on scarface.

that is my favorite non-gta sandbox game though. out there moving that weight in the keys.

 

[Hrcules]

Driver on the ps1 had the best driving physics

Praising GTA4 driving?

GTA4's driving took itself too serious to be good.

 

[NoMorePie]

Driver san Francisco had the best driving mechanics in any game for me.

Gta 4 had the best driving mechanics fo4 any gta game. was able to drift a 180 and reverse between two cars parked between a red light then 180 drift back to ready position like it was nothing

 

[The Fukin Prophecy]

Mafia 3's car mechanics is one of the few strong points of the game...

The cars for the most part handle just like their real counterparts do...

I agree with the rest of the list though...

It's obvious a lot of these open world devs put no effort into the driving aspect...

GTA3 has better driving mechanics than Watch Dogs...

 

[Easy-E]

Arkham Knight

I'm an hour into this
