Never played it, what's so bad about it?

By making your enjoyment of the game solely reliant on the abilities of other people, even though other people are fucking retarded.

Who said they fucked up? they managed to milk a lot of fucking retards when you take into account "GTA Online Transactions" were the majority of their revenue for the last four years with the same maps and an illusion of freedom.

>>15176623

By forcing you to interact all the time with other players.

And if you open a solo/friends only lobby, taking away missions you can do because forced PvP is fun goy.

The entire thing quickly turned into a jaded way to farm shark cards from kids.

That's just because most nu-gamers are idiots that only appreciate things on a surface level. To them something like GTA online is the coolest shit. To anyone that appreciates games and good gameplay it's dogshit.

UUUUGGGHHHH

>>15176652

Their paid shills were fucking everywhere, from jewtube to twitchthots. They pad their online multiplayer game with too much spectacle and the retards who ate that all up already forgot about their promise of more singleplayer DLC. Most of those idiots just said "The online game has those missions! its rofl fun!"

But he's right. Online multiplayer is shit. If you're not in the same room as me you might as well be a bot. Only with bots the entire game can be made to cater to your specific experience. Instead the game now has to cater to all these stupid nobodies who aren't me. Plus, multiplayer is an excuse to be lazy. They don't have to actually put work into making as much stuff because they can just give you a place to run around and leave it to the players to make their own game. Except that's not fun unless you're a shit eating retard who is only here to socialize.

Shit servers, it takes ages to get logged in and then you get an infinte load after a mission. Also, EU is full of Russian hackers that have ruined the game for everyone else. Seriously, I wish I was in NA because those fuckers are insufferable. Fucking regret giving 20 bucks for this piece of crap.

>>15176626

The primary issue with GTA Online is that it's rampant in hackers and the auto-moderator keeps banning the victims of it.

The other thing that I don't like about GTA Online is that it's not really a multiplayer game. It's more like a single-player with cooperative aspects. It should be more like a dynamic gangland game, like street gangs fighting for territory and resources.

I opened this thread up thinking it was a No Man's Sky rant.

>>15176855

Good ideas. Particularly because GTA5 already has a stock market system that they could manipulate.

But what totally demotivated me from the game was that there seemed to be nothing good to spend your money on.

I swear that Rockstar cut so much content single player and half assed the online portion that all the shark cards that the kids bought made them lazy. There could have been single player dlc but I don't think they even attempted to do it. What else was Rockstar doing besides RDR2.

Even if there was the game would be shit from the get go. The single player was easily the worst one out. The combat was so gimped, fucking Max Payne 3 was more impressive than GTA in that regard. EA was supposed to be making a "GTA killer", let's see how that turns out I'm not giving Rock$tar anymore of my money.

By adding a slow as fuck grind to unlock anything cool and microtransactions

I stopped playing 3 years ago after I got to level 125-ish on my PS3. I used to exploit that Madrazo briefcase mission where he gives you over $18k. Online was doomed to fail and the fact that most players didn't have mics didn't help the poor communication issue.

boring unless youre 12

>>15176752

t. bullied nerd who gets rolled in multiplayer, git gud weebshit

Just download fiveM, holy shit. It's GTAO without any of kikestar's greed and also mods. Alternatively play single player and use a trainer to bring in all the multiplayer shit.

You're pretty late anon, open world multiplayer has always been shit, no exceptions.

>>15176626

MMO style grinding.

Only time I ever had fun was when I joined a room with another hacker and we turned the north side of the map into WW3 12v12 spawning jets, ships, armored cars, weapons, money for everyone. Then I got banned 45 mins later.

>>15176626

First bit, cheating faggots all over (on pc) and lots of people who are not hacking are getting banned for some cheating retard fucking with them. Second bit, the grind is absurd to get kids to buy shark cards.

An example:

>Buy expensive hover car

>Want to give it weapons

>Need another expensive building

>Now need expensive vehicle

>Now need to upgrade that vehicle

>Now need to buy the weapons for the car

The car is 3-5 million. The building is around 1-5 million. The vehicle it needs is 1-5 million (depends on which building you chose). Upgrade for that vehicle is just under 1 million. You can finally buy those weapons you originally wanted for 200k. Now laugh depressingly as you realize you may want to buy something else. I suggest everyone who plays this abortion to look into that mission bug that lets you redo that sub doomsday heist to farm fuck loads of money

You are no different from a second life player.

>>15179825

nice to know

>>15176770

You're literally just describing Second Life with your first sentence.

its fun fucking around with friends

This is going to be more of the same grinding as usual, with the exact same package fetching missions.
