Good score in '60 FPS and 120+ FPS' is wrong

3
Summary by Bowi

Frame rates above 60 indeed cause some bugs.

Some game script timings are FPS-dependent, and several missions cannot be finished without lowering FPS. Examples: gtaforums.com/topic/950644-gta-iv-a-revengers-tragedy-heli-bug/ steamcommunity.com/app/12210/discussions/0/864957183136775300/

At least 'Revenger`s Tragedy', 'Out of Commission' and 'Truck Hustle' affected.

The check mark isn't entirely a score or rating, it's mostly regarding whether the feature is natively supported or not. Since GTA IV doesn't require any mods or tweaks for 60+ or 120+ FPS it is technically natively supported even though it may cause some issues during certain missions.

You could add a note since GTA IV does have various known issues with 60+ FPS gameplay. I remember the final mission having an issue during the helicopter sequence where you have to mash spacebar to climb into it. The only way to get around it was to lock your FPS to 30.

Given there has been fixes posted for the aforementioned helicopter bug as well as camera handling, are there any remaining bugbears that would prevent us from giving this one the 60+ FPS tick of approval?
