Qdeathstar 1763 Report post Posted October 2, 2013 You have no idea what the situation is for them. Some of us are well aware of what they have to work with. We all want to play online just as much as you do - most of us more so - and we will get to eventually. Knowing how many games they sold doesn't suddenly make it easy to prepare servers for it. Stop making excuse for rockstar and take two, Massacre. If they didnt know what they needed, they should have known. If they werent prepared for the server load, they should have been. This isnt some upstart indie game developer, its a professional international corporation. Their isn't any excuse for this kind of unprofessionalism. I understand you like rockstar and take two a lot, but making excuses for their mistakes lets them off the hook. They should get their shit together, we paid for GTA online to work, and it should. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nathan 31 Report post Posted October 2, 2013 In all honesty I'm hapyy to just have online and the base game together beause I would have willingly spent £40 on each of them so this for me is really like two games for the price of one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I didn't pay anything for GTAO it came free with GTAV you're bitching about the quality of a free product. GTAO isn't free. They can say it is for marketing purposes all they want but it isn't really free. If it is, I guess flying a plane should be considered free too, or being able to play the games story, that's "free" aswell. It won't be truly free until a purchase of GTA V isn't required. I can understand how some of you could be upset but tbh Ieven though I shouldn't have to I have no problem waiting, I'm still thoroughly enjoying V's singleplayer mode. Besides, I got my copy for free anyway... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob 1390 Report post Posted October 2, 2013 We paid for GTAV the online component is cream as far as I'm concerned. I paid for the game. Being able to play with people from all over the globe without leaving my lounge room I didn't pay for that. It's a bonus. I'm not gunna bitch because of teething problems. They will be sorted soon enough. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gmt 60 Report post Posted October 2, 2013 Honestly. Would you have bought GTAV If there was no multi player? yup. simply because I'm more the lan-party type of multiplayer (or at least a dedicated, pw-protected host on online multiplayer to keep the trolls and cheats out). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DiO 4730 Report post Posted October 2, 2013 Honestly. Would you have bought GTAV If there was no multi player? are you fucking kidding me? Yes. I am pissed that its down. and BAWSAQ is down. My portfolio says -230 million. I want to sell. I bought a shit stock and dont want to do anything in game cause theres no point cause i might have to revert to an old save. gta for me is literally unplayable right now for me. I'm pissed about that but I seem less butthurt than you do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are R* constantly updating the market or something? not sure, but i've noticed a few times that the in game site for BAWSAC was 'down for maintenance'. however the liberty stocks were still active... this has been discussed plenty of times in other topics already... LCN is an offline stock market while BAWSAQ is an online stock market run via SocialClub. anyways, while we're discussion things we dont like, I dont like how much more balanced npc-vehicles are spawned in GTAO. I'm sitting in an Albany Primo. I've seen this car right away in GTAO but am yet to see it in V. My first GTAO-car? a Futo. I haven't seen a single fucking Futo on the streets in 93hrs of V gameplay (according to Social Club). Also, a bunch of Sabre Turbos just flew by me. Also a car I haven't seen yet in single-player. Oh and I crashed a Zion Convertible running from the cops. I've only seen regular Zions so far in V. R* is kidding with this, right? I've seen 4 cars in about 1hr of online gameplay I haven't seen a single time in almost 100hrs offline gameplay?? now of course there's much less cars on the streets of GTAO, but really... I doubt it's that hard to have an equal balancing of cars in offline mode... EDIT: make it 5 cars, the Patriot just joined the list 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drew-Barnes 64 Report post Posted October 3, 2013 The primo, futo, and zion cabrio are pretty common in V. The first towing missions you do is towing a primo. I do know what you mean though, I saw a Pheonix, an Asea, a Sabre, and a Fusilade online, which I've yet to see in V Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rob 1390 Report post Posted October 4, 2013 I have seen and Modded a few Phoenix's offline. I can't say for the others though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
