New GTA 5 Update

[Paul Rudd]

Has anyone tried out the new Rockstar Launcher yet? I had a random GTA 5 update on Steam today that forced me to install this new launcher(only 1 gig luckily). Thinking it would possibly mess with things, to my surprise, it is surprisingly a GOOD thing so far. It doesn't feel like a separate launcher either because it just opens up from Steam and loads up the game. I dunno if it's just me but I feel like I'm getting a boost in performance. Even inside the casino is getting higher fps than before. Running a benchmark is getting better fps than before and driving around in the city has improved performance than before.

 

Anyone have to install this update today? And how's it working for you? I'm positive it did not exist yesterday unless they rolled it out at night time yesterday.

Do you happen to know if it bricks things like Scripthook?

Wait there's a new launcher? I must go check this out.

Aw but I have to deal with Windows. Grumble grumble.

No clue. Not into modding online.

It's barely a launcher, that's just what it's called. It comes up when you run the game and you barely notice it. I just want to know if I'm the only one getting better performance on it or if that's what it was created for. There's no info on it so far online anywhere because it's only existed for around half a day or so.
