GTA IV vs GTA V driving: what should GTA 6 borrow?

[GregH]

Some players want the heavier GTA IV vehicle physics back, others prefer GTA V's more accessible handling. I can see arguments for both.

I'd like more weight and distinctive suspension without every sedan feeling like a boat. What would your ideal middle ground be?

Different cars need different personalities. A big old sedan should lean and roll, while a modern sports car should feel planted. One handling model for everything is boring.

I'd separate damage simulation from handling. Better crash deformation doesn't require making the steering sluggish.

A tuning option that changes traction and suspension behavior could keep the arcade crowd and driving fans happy.
