            @ Rockstar,

            You've avoided answering the big question now longer than Michael Howard to the infamous Paxman "did you threaten to over-rule him?" challenge. The TLAD achievements are a proverbial big white elephant in GFWL.

            I expect that you can't answer for legal reasons - but a word of advice. I think we all would have appreciated a subtle an clever hint that TLAD was coming to the PC a couple of weeks ahead of making an official announcement. However, to drop a big one and deny it ever happened for over two months is a bit ridiculous. You can only tease the consumer so far before they start getting annoyed.

            Don't me wrong, GTA IV is still fantastic on the PC inspite of the bugs - and I for one do appreciate the efforts to fix them, even though they have only been partially successful. This is no excuse however for some rather sloppy PR.

                Yet another customer here with a legal unmodded version of GTA IV, multiplayer worked fine up untill the last patch, its nice to see you guys making a attempt to put in some anti cheat measure but f**king hell FIX IT SO ALL YOUR CUSTOMERS CAN GO ONLINE - and in the meantime inform us on the fact you are aware of the issue and are working to resolve it. I know sales for GTA IV PC where lower then you guys anticipated but for f**k sake if you keep this up noone is going to buy GTA V PC ( yes we will download it ofcourse )

                            In my case, patch 1.0.0.4 brought more benefice than inconveniences. I have an average PC so maybe the performance increase is more noticeable on slower PCs. With that new patch, I was able to increase the graphic quality while maintaining a good frame rate.

                            However, patch 1.0.0.4 brought some minor shadow issues and other occasional graphic glitches that were not in previous release and that I’m sure R* is aware of. At lease it does not make the game crash.

                            Over all I’m a very happy camper with GTA IV from the date of its release till now but it sure would be nice if the issues in 1.0.0.4 would be fixed IF R* and/or MicroSchmuck should decide to make The Lost and Damned available for PCs. I will be one of these geeks camping outside the store in -30 °C on the eve of the release.

                                  I've been waiting for this patch quiet som time now. I can finally play multiplayer again as all those cheaters are gone.
                                  And by the way, how about TLAD?
