Handsome B Wonderful 331 Report post Posted September 26, 2013 Everyone who buys their shit with real money should have an icon above their character in-game, so that everyone can taunt them mercilessly. Or boot them from their game if there's an option to do it. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TreeFitty 2631 Report post Posted September 26, 2013 On the upside you still need to level up in order to unlock the guns/whatever else. So it will be easier but they won't have it all in the first 10 minutes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nathan 31 Report post Posted September 26, 2013 So given this information I don't think its really pay 2 win, just pay to have an advantage over AI, a slight advantage over others and to buy stuff.....once you've unlocked it, so I don't think its really worth buying.

DuPz0r 5361 Report post Posted September 27, 2013 Yeah, for making their child a spoilt fuck. People with more money than sense will be buying all the best shit on the first day. Anyway this isn't pay to win, it's pay to look superior. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Massacre 7646 Report post Posted September 27, 2013 Rockstar is more competent than Blizzard. And whoever made Runescape, I don't give a shit. Try a shootout or race with some kid who bought $1.5 million before making assumptions. No one else seems concerned. We'll all be fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
narcolepsy 581 Report post Posted September 27, 2013 You never play free roam on a non-spawn server on SAMP when some douchy 13 year old script kiddy with mod s0beit shows up? Here's what happens, you're playing fairly, when out of nowhere... HOLY FUCK, HUNTER AND 4 BILLION ROCKETS and you're dead. these people never go for modding cars or that shit, always something they can be as cheap as possible with.

Barrybran 851 Report post Posted September 28, 2013 Hopefully R* is clever enough to have players spawn in passive mode to alleviate the potential problem of such players sitting in front of spawn positions waiting for people to come in. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Carmen212 0 Report post Posted September 30, 2013 It is NOT PAY-TO-WIN the only micro-transactions R* mentioned was for in-game cash. In Death Matches/Races it wouldnt matter and if you can pay to level up then who cares? One troll that spent their whole paycheck on micro-transactions couldnt ruin an entire game, espeacially if they paid to be level 100. In that case they wouldnt know what theyre doing anyway. The worst scenario is a private match with your freinds. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zephyr1991 6 Report post Posted October 2, 2013 Confirmed not pay to win. All guns, grenades, car upgrades, even clothing and hairstyles need a minimum lv to unlock. Unlocking is only done through doing missions and doing various activites around the city. Money for the most part is easy to get, but not in large amounts. 5kish on a good Deathmatch match can get you max the ammo for any early gun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Otiz P Jivefunk 670 Report post Posted October 2, 2013 not pay to win, but soon will be pay to play. understandable tho, to a degree. they gotta pay ppl to keep it going. but hopefully knowing how many ppl do want to play they keep the cost low and reasonable, like 50/yr. or something, (just throwin a random rate out there...)multiply that by 10million = costs paid.

I doubt it. There is really no more of a maintenance fee to this game than GTA IV or RDR. I highly doubt it'll ever become pay to play. And R* already confirmed you don't have to buy in-game money with real money to succeed. It'll be all good. EDIT: what I mean by "maintenance fee" is like server upkeep. There is really nothing different about running this game than RDR and GTA IV. They just have to pay employees to take abuse from children, and keep their servers running. My point is, don't worry about this. This isn't an MMO. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
