I guess the answer is "no", but I just would like to be sure. There are hackers in the PS4 version from what I've read on the forums but they're not as common as they were in the PS3 release, plus the worst they can do is screw up your stats by giving you tons of free money, though I would still recommend sticking to private lobbies and only playing with trustworthy friends.

Letenko Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 For hackers, if it's anything like the PC version, they could only pop the Levels for you by giving you RP and money. I'd recommend doing the XP on your own, or AFK-turbo it and then feeling somewhat safe in public matches. I've barely touched the PS4 version so if someone contradicts me who has more experience, trust them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Using public lobbies is required for some businesses, however you can drop your MTU to 800 and you'll be the only person in a public game XD Makes bunker runs insanely easy to rack up fast cash EDIT - Oh just remembered, the prep work for Doomsday heist requires public lobbies Edited January 19 by Dark_Overlord 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eblait Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 (edited) Oh, man. Time to download my PS4 cloud save and go after these trophies so I can still have a shot at 100%. At least I've beaten the game, and I think I can still play with all 3 characters so I can focus on the requirements needed for some of these trophies. I was planning to play the SP from scratch but now I won't bother anymore. Edited January 19 by Eblait Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nik_west Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Thanks for the heads up, guys. Without this thread, I would've completely missed that. I guess, a month should be more than enough to complete the Editor trophies. After that, it probably becomes a FFXV Comrades situation, where you need a downgrade to get at least 7 out of 10 trophies. The current version is 1.48, that will probably be the last version with the Editor in it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sepheroithisgod Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 I read this removal is because they are running out of room for new updates on the last gen version. Guess they will start stripping less popular options to make room. Not surprising given how frequently it is updating, but concerning as far as trophies go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdinhoN Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 6 hours ago, HusKy said: I have a feeling once they shut it down, none of the trophies will be available and downgrading the game won't help. @jonesey46 They are not required for the platinum. I think they were added later after the release? Why do you think downgrading won't help? The offline trophies of this DLC might be gone if they patch out the Director Mode, but it will always be obtainable downgrading. However as we need to use our GTA Online character, 100% of GTA 5 will be gone for sure after the removal (downgrading would have no effect for this most likely) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a hunch, but the feature seems to be tangled together with online servers, e.g. exporting from R* Editor. So I would not be surprised if older version (after downgrading) detected servers being down and would straight up refuse to load. Either way, it does not matter much. 1 trophy, 3 trophies or all 10 trophies. The list will be ruined after this removal forever. 👎 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DividedByMankind Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 (edited) 4 hours ago, Kolm said: And @HuntingFever Someone in a discord server I'm in tested on the PS5 version and he couldn't get all 3 trophies while playing offline: Vinewood visionary - Create and export a video using the Rockstar Editor Majestic - Create and export 10 videos using the Rockstar Editor Method Actor - Enter Director Mode using any of your own GTA Online characters I'm also assuming that they'll patch out the mode with an update so they can add more online stuff to the installation file. This would mean that the other trophies are still available if you reverse to a certain patch level although I wouldn't risk it personally And as far as I know, there's no disc version that includes the Editor patch on disc. So i was right 😂 annyways better do whole dlc for ps4 and 5 just to be sure then👍 Btw , how much of SP and S&R do i have to do of the game to get all Characters unlocked?

It’s going to require an internet connection, and as soon as you connect the game will require an update. I suggest that everyone do it while they can through official means.

Baron_Bonk Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 I'm guessing I'll get the 3 online bound trophies out of the way tonight and then I shut off automatic updates on my PS4/take it offline till I'm done with the rest of the editor trophies. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doll Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Will this affect the PS5 list *AT ALL* Would the shutdown affect the PS5 function too?, I know it says PlayStation 4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, only the PS4 version of this DLC is shutting down - the PS5 release is 100% unaffected but the PS3 version was nuked in December 2021.

snakebit10 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 I only need the Crytozoologist trophy from the dlc, about how long does it take to meet the requirements for that? It's been almost 6 years since I earned other trophies in the rockstar editor dlc so my memory is kind of cloudy right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Qwertyui606 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Eh was considering finally playing GTA v with all the hype over vi. But it'll take me a couple months to finish Rdr2 that I'm working on atm. Guess I'll just play the PS5 version if I do. I'll just miss out on a few ultra rates, not the end of the world. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamescush147 Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 Crap. I was planning to get back into GTA5 this month, guess this just fast-forward it. Missing just two of those trophies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeanolt Posted January 19 Share Posted January 19 I might be wrong, but I think the physical Premium Edition was released after the Editor DLC, so maybe that version has the editor on the disc, and you can use it in the 1.00 original version.

Baron_Bonk Posted January 20 Share Posted January 20 Here's what I did tonight: - Turned off automatic updates of applications, so I can refuse the update when it comes - Went offline, started up the game, played the prologue and the first mission and went into director mode - Got first time director and location scout trophies done while offline - went back online and did the method actor and exporting trophies - broke a sweat because vinewood visionary would not pop until I actually edited a clip before exporting. Majestic worked just fine exporting unedited clips 10 times For me this gives me enough security that as long I don't update the game (hence unabling me to play online till I update again), I can sort out SP on my own pace, get this dlc to 100% and then delve into GTA Online and get the update which removes the director mode.
