Why did you stop playing /v/?
>>339145896
Me and my friends got bored of it by the time R* started giving money to everyone because of the server problems
It was fun to fuck around for a while, but that's it, we never felt the need to play again
Because its an endless grind and there's nothing to do anymore
>>339145896
i have the R* client version which uses a garbage downloader
if i had it on steam i would probably play it more.
> loading screens: the game
Its against the nature of gta
>>339146093
But anon, the biggest update it's ever had is coming on the 7th June with all new gameplay.
>>339145896
>install on ssd
>now there are only TWO minutes of loading time instead of five!
>>339146961
Let me guess
> cars/apartments that are expensive
> game modes no one plays
> op weapons for any level
Which one is it
>>339146126
This.
>>339147292
Probably the first. They're letting you buy offices and warehouses to store and sell contraband you steal. There's a new super car too.
>>339145896
>want to play it somewhat serious and look around to blow shit up with another guy
>keep getting killed for no reason and my vehicle gets blown up
>realize there's nothing else to do than do the same if I can't play together
>get punished for it by being sent to shit servers
Fuck that piece of shit, if you kill others, you get punished, if you don't you get killed.
There's always 2-3 guys going around killing, then all the rest just plays alone or does things he could do in single player. It's really retarded.
>no new update support for muh last-gen
>literally bottom-of-the-barrel tier freeplay
>need to grind that stupid fucking helicopter mission if you don't want to spend 200 hours getting a penthouse
>all people who still play on ps3 are retarded spics so freeplay is deathmatch
>bad sport for killing someone in a GRAND THEFT AUTO GAME
>>339145896
Started playing again a lot ever since I got my Schafter V12 armored
>>339147556
How armoured is it compared to the kuruma?
I got so much cash drops from modders I just had everything I wanted.
After a while it all gets repetitive, everyone just picks the same contact missions, uses the same cars in the same races.
My friends stopped playing.
Modders on literally every other session.
Can't fucking drop the dozens of weapons I never use, when they add new ones I didn't buy most of them purely because it makes switching an incredibly hassle, especially in-car.
>just want to play for heists, assassinations, and other additional missions essentially on my own
is it worth it
more singleplayer shit when
Doing public heists is agony.
>50,000 players online at this moment
>boot it up
>get put in a server full of chinks
>find new game
>empty
>find new game
>back to the same exact server full of chinks
50,000 people online
and i get one or two servers full of people ONLY on the other side of the world
what in the actual MOTHER of FUCK is going ON
>make a single player storyline with 3 different protagonists
>don't include online co-op for the storyline
Is Rockstar legitimately retarded?
I'm still playing mate. Still doing the daily objectives daily.
>>339148005
You're a chink inside and this is baby Buddah's way of reconnecting you to your roots.
>>339147420
Did they ever release a car that's better than the Entity?
>>339148094
Top lad. Do you still get asked to do impromptu races? Swear nobody knows they exist.
>>339145896
Played it for 10 minutes, all of which were spent getting killed and respawning due to some faggot bitch
>>339148197
i get russians too sometimes
and sometimes its random european faggots
but its always a bunch of fucking people on the other side of the fucking world in closer proximity to themselves than i am to them
how
why
fucking how
god fucking dammit fuck everything
>>339148227
For daily objectives or in general? Because no.
>>339148272
You're a europoor inside and this is Tengri's way of reconnecting you to your roots.
>>339148284
Just for the objectives. I managed to do a full month when they first came out and it was impromptu and rally races I used to dread.
I stopped played because I "beat" the game. I exploited known glitches to get millions of dollars and raise my level. I had everything I could want and the only thing to do was kill kids in free roam.
I tried logging in a couple months ago and noticed that Rockstar had taken all my money away. Stopped playing for good after that.
>>339148431
They seem to have disabled most annoying ones, like tennis and impromptu races. Worst one is collecting a bounty in my opinion, because you need people to not be a dick really. Rally races are still in, but you can just host Criminal Records for one lap as a rally race and do that one, it's a fucking circle so you can't get lost.
>Passive mode
>Insurance
>awful heist that take way to long to get going
>Hackers
>>339148005
join EU/US based crew you retard
>>339147616
It's still better to get the Kurama if you really want to get things done and earn much more money quicker. But I honestly like the Schafter because it doesn't feel like it's breaking the game. And it's the fastest car in the game in terms of top speed (except adder) and can transport 4 poor so hey that's great.
The windows can take a good amount of abuse but they will break eventually, and since gtav is baby's first gangster game, you have to break the windows to shoot out which is fucking retarded, why didn't Rockstar have the car lower the windows fast and roll up quick to shoot out. Fucking stupid. But it's much more durable than a regular car which again helps with soaking up bullets. I like the car, but it's not as efficient as the Kurama. But it is a bit ass car and i love big ass cars, i own an avalon for a reason.
>>339147762
never
>>339148962
Used to love seeing this when a special t-shirt crate was about to be dropped.
>>339148823
Passive mode is fun because it doesn't work in cars and doesn't work against cars.
If I see a guy in passive mode driving around, I hunt him down and shoot him to death, then run him over until he leaves the session.
>>339148962
>>339149218
Explain further on what's happening in that image.
>>339149360
Think it's something to do with lag.
>>339148357

You need shark cards for everything
>>339148972
im in the fucking /v/ one
theres like 4 and ive tried them all actually
>>339149054
>And it's the fastest car in the game in terms of top speed (except adder)
It's Banshee 900R > Z-Type > Adder > Schafter V12. Omitting the Dominator Racecar.
Long load times and cheaters.
As someone who used to play GTA IV online for years, Rockstar got too greedy and the community really went downhill. Also, it doesn't help that Rockstar pandered to casuals too much by giving them too much protection.
>>339148962
>DontplayOverwatch left
Top kek
Hes going to play Overwatch now
>>339150181
I love how the Z-Type is so ungodly fast for the type of car it is. Used to piss off my friends by driving that beast in sports classic races.

What? You got off damn well. Stats are piss easy to level aside from strength which is useless anyway.
>>339152263
Sounds like you got a pretty good deal. What did you buy with the 16 million?
>>339145896
one of our crew doesnt want to do the last heist because "once we've done that, its all over - theres nothing left"
Maybe if R* made more heists (WHICH THEY FUCKING WONT) we'll play again ;__;

>>339152471
Was thinking more about kills, missions done, all that.
>>339152592
I havent really spent it yet. Been caught up with school. I just bought the two flats and a few of the vehicles that i had.
>>339147692

No thanks. And to top it all off, Rockstar knows GTAO is shit so they try to bargain with people by giving them "free updates" to reel them back in once they lose interest again and again.
Rockstar last gen was hands down my favorite developer but they dropped the ball hard with GTAO. Still, the singleplayer despite its flaws is pretty fun to mess around in and it alone was worth the $60 on release.
>>339153530
>>339152834
Now I remember why I stopped playing.
People die or quit from a heist
Stupid corridor deathmatch maps where you die the second you spawn
Selfmade race maps which take like 20min to finish even with super cars.
Anyone planning to buy a nice office next month? How do you think the contraband will work?
>>339153945
Whats the new update thing going to be?
>>339154067
>Acquire a high-rise office and special warehouse properties to begin buying and selling a range of contraband across the city, all the while fighting the LSPD and the rest of the southern San Andreas criminal underworld for access to the rarest items and the biggest profits.
Sounds like the best update for a while, instead of one where you buy everything and are done with it in 10 minutes.
>>339154154
>buyin a highrise office for $20,000,000 and a warehouse for $15,000,000 so you can make a small stable income via minigames
I really hope its not this expensive cashcow shit
I missed all the money glitches so I'm still basically a poor nigger and refuse to pay R* for cash cards ;______;p.s. how to make cash?
>>339154154
>Acquire a high-rise office
Oh yes, gonna have to grind for a few days just to buy another fucking expensive thing. GG rockstar, ever since the heists update, there was only "BUY STUFF, ONLY FOR RICH PLAYERS XD" updates
>>339153530
>Join deathmatch
>Custom made that traps you in a cage with the only way out being a complicated wall jumps
>tanks and weapons outside of cage
>Host makes a b-line to the way out and escapes before we know what happens
>Gets a tank into the cage and spends the whole deathmatch shooting us as we try to escape.
>>339154324
>p.s. how to make cash?
Grind really hard, or try cheating on an empty server, but you are on your own risk. Try giving yourself just a little under $1m at some minutes, so the servers won't suddenly say that you got $40m in less than 1 minute.
>>339154324
>p.s. how to make cash?
Heists, especially when it is a bonus weekend and heists offer triple or double the payout.
It is a pain in the arse if you have no friends to play with but you can still manage it, I got a good car and apartment after a few heists.
>>339153530
>>339154413
You can block those now. Pause - GTA Online - Options - Filter quick job content - Rockstar created only.
>>339154480
>try cheating
is that really a thing?
>>339154570
How often are bonus weekends?
>>339154598
>How often are bonus weekends
No clue have not played in a year or so.
>>339154324
You can make a reasonable amount of cash this weekend with the double money and rp on races. I've got a 16x Criminal Records playlist going, setting it for 2 laps and rubber banding for 10 minutes and getting 16k. Made just over a million since yesterday. It's not the fastest method but I hardly have to do anything.
>>339145896
Friends stopped playing, only fun to play if you skype while at it really.
>>339145896
probably not a great idea to add grinding to something that was repetitive in the first place
>>339154480
>Tfw get hydra jet with Pegasus
>Tfw flying around the city and all the warnings i've got incoming missiles

>They all crash into the buildings one by one.
>Tfw they shout the "MODDER" excuse to why they died.
Git Gud.
>>339145896
it took me a while, but it was after I officially acknowledged that Rockstar accepted the Bethesda model for open world games where the gameplay itself is very shallow but there's so much shit spontaneously occurring that it causes you to ignore that fact
I stopped playing after the bike glitch where you could re-sell the same bike over and over again for free money.
Just got boring because it was no fun allowed.
>playerbase HAS to be dying down at this point for this 3 year old game
>this next DLC is their chance to rekindle the fire and draw people back
>they choose to do some uninspired and ultimately useless shit like hurr durr criminal empire instead of interesting shit like casino DLC, horseback DLC, or hmm, San fucking Fierro
>only been playing for a few hours
>made a million doing heists that pay 100k per
>bought a house, couple of custom cars, got my guns, etc
I don't understand where the "grind" is in this?
>>339155056
Lmao, I did the exact same shit, only that I used one of those really shit airplanes, I was with my friend flying it while being chased by a faggot with a jet. I flied low sand managed to dodge all the missiles, it was a 10 minutes fight until he crashed into a building. Best day in gta online
Git gud.
>>339154598
Heists are too variable imo. There's this one mission called "Check Out Time," where if you do it in 4 minutes, you basically get $10000. It involves shooting a woman in a car and taking a picture of the car. You'll get a two star wanted level. Once you kill the driver, you'll find that you'll be near one of the entrances to a giant construction site. Drive into the site, turn left, drive forward until you reach the wall, and then turn right. This little section is an area where the cops never come for some reason. You'll know you reached it when you reach some stairs you can drive up. Do that, wait for the wanted level to go away, then finish the mission.
I was able to grind for a Hydra after a couple of hours doing this.
>>339155820
I forgot to add that this is on Hard, but the mission's so easy it hardly makes a difference. You can even turn on Free Aim to get more RP.
>>339145896
I lost all my friends:^(
>>339145896
Because the old consol systems have run their course and I don't feel like upgrading the a new system. And I also don't feel like buying the damn game over again just play it on my PC.
>>339149360
The servers in online are fucking shit, that's what. If you manage to get in a game with more than 20 people, you lag out into a server by yourself.
You'd think with all the money Rockstar earned from this game they would fix this stupid shit
>>339145896
Never got myself to buy the game second time. Played it on PS3 and had some fun, will not pay $60 for it again.
What was the last update that PS3 and 360 got?
>>339146961
>all new gameplay
Huh? Explain?
>>339157027
Ill Gotten Gains part 2 I think
>>339157027
Think it was Heists. Not sure if they got any of the Ill Gotten Gains updates.
>>339157063
They haven't said much else yet. There's a trailer coming some time next week.
>>339145896
Because Rockstar is a billion dollar company and those fucktards can't make a multiplayer mode better than what some neckbeard coded in his basement for San Andreas?
SA MP was the better experience and GTAO is only for the highest tier of console pleb. Kill yourselves. I'm only upset I bought this trash to find out Rockstar was fucking people over for trying to make a V MP mod.
>>339145896
Hackers and stupid game modes
>>339157237
I agree sa-mp and mta was better than gta online bullshit.
>play as a core group of 4 players
>1 makes a female character

Supercars are literally pointless in GTA since all of the have a speed limit of 120.>>339152263

>>339146961
i remember everyone said the same about executives and other criminals but once again it turned out to be fucking nothing
