Popular Post JG-Ray Posted October 18, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted October 18, 2013 They were not thinking when they made gta5 online. Well....maybe they were thinking and thought it would be cool to be idiots and make it extremely unfair....Let's say you are a new(ish) player and enter a race online. Well there is no chance you'll get anywhere because all hosts have custom rides ON, catchup OFF, and traffic OFF.So basically the higher ranked players and their retardedly modified cars automatically win so what is the point. Now you cannot rank yourself up easily with racing, so there's a pointless game to play.Now you decide to try some deathmatch then you find that the high ranked people automatically win as well because they have extremely powerful weapons and you have JACK. So there's some more pointless activities.This is probably one of the worst online gaming experiences I've ever had. The only way to play this game online is to go after newbee player.Now for myself when I'm in the free roam I continuously get kicked from players because there is a bunch of foreign language morons who don't understand to start a private server and just kick everyone out.And WORST of ALL. It's not all that easy to mute others. It's like a 1minute job to mute them and if you get killed then you have to try again. We got the typical nasely voiced virgin nerd ghetto thugs, hindu music screaming singers, and little 12yr olds pestering you.I would like to be the first person to say that I cannot wait to get the plat, sell the game, and never play it again.Will I buy a gta6 if it comes out?Yeah....I'll buy it and try it out but I've been waiting for this one to come out for years and it was made for trolls just as much as the last one. I had a much better time playing red dead redemption than this crap........ 14 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_MovieMan29 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I will agree with you, but in a less angry tone. Even though I did not enjoy my several hours online and will never be playing it again, I still see some good in it. But, I do think that the online turned out less "universally" fun then what they advertised and/or thought. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amebapiko Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 You could always just play with your friends or just start your own races or missions so you are the host. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowIPendragon Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 (edited) Stuff like that and the week-long online failures makes me SUPER happy that I never bought it thanks to my friend letting me gameshare his digital copy. I even hated the offline story mode. I just got all the offline trophies so it'll be quite a while before I get into the online portion.

Popular Post xVolloxx Posted October 18, 2013 Popular Post Share Posted October 18, 2013 (edited) I will agree with you ! For new players it is extremely unfair ! , Saying that i have a custom vehicle and for some reason when i race it against lower level players i almost always lose , my car is way faster and better in free roam for some odd reason Generally speaking Red Dead Redemption's multiplayer was way better ! Mainly because the capture the bag , deathmatch and team deathmatch maps were brilliant ! Gta Online's Maps suck ! and very much so , Not to mention the fact that there's hardly any coop activities and or missions to do I'm disappointed with Rockstar and Gta Online , it also seems that they've been restricted by current-gen hardware and capabilities It would have been much better if they had toned down the multiplayer and made it more similar to Read Dead Redemption , Everything on that games multiplayer was fun , especially the competitive game modes like capture the bag , and like i just said the Maps were all good Also in Gta Online if you generally play the game it takes ages to level up and accumulate money , There's no reason to buying a house , there's no reason to Mod a car except appearance and the Deathmatches suck because of the overpowered players , Shotguns and most of all Maps ! the maps are awful they really are , another thing i dislike is that if you join a friend only he can invite people , so you aren't able to invite your own friends 17 Days after launch and they still haven't added heists either ........ people's stuff is still going missing , servers are still unbalanced i even have a friend who can't get on the Online ! Extremely disappointed with the Online , yeah it can be a lot of fun with friends when it works , and even when it does there's not much to do ..... this is a huge failure for Rockstar and i'm sure most people will lose interest quickly especially with next-gen right around the corner . EDIT : That's another thing i just thought of , if i select Vehicle access : friends and crew , Neither my friends or my crew can access my vehicle anyway and same goes for muting , if it set mic to friends and crew , i still here other people anyway so quite pointless and one last thing , the hospital fees are phenomenal ! Just stupid actually ! It's Gta obviously people are going to kill each other ! and if you do you get classed as a bad sport ? really it's Gta , it's an 18+ game and i'll get classed as a bad sport for killing someone ? Oh and Passive mode ? don't worry you won't be able to get shot so i'll just hit you with my car ! Really ? Complete and utter joke !

Humonic Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 (edited) AHAHAH brother.. I completely agree, luckily for this fuck I got the online trophies done last night to be fair I was probably one of those high rank assholes destroying you in death match, That being said death match is a completely embarrassing broken lump of shit the map design, the spawns, me being stupidly over powered winning every game, fuck me sure I enjoyed completely annihilating people but other then that it was frustrating and terrible, not impressed. The races, ahh the races I'm sure everyones boosting at this point that might be why your running into these custom lobbies, how do you think I got to 100 so fast? boosting, get boosting bro wtf are you waiting for they're gonna patch it soon, yes I can show you how to do it, but yeah custom vehicles are a little silly but in the defense of rockstar you can see the rules before you go into the race so you can just leave, you should try to host your own. Free roam, hospital/death fees!!!!?!?! what the actual fuck, it's so ridiculous that you get charged to die, I run around with 100k, one guy kills me I lose 5 grand, so I kill him 7 times in a sweet act of vengeance and I make like $700 for it -__- then he kills me so I lose another 5k, this has no place being in the game, if I buy the 1 mil from the store, spend it on nothing and die 200 times I literally paid £13 to just lose money, why say we can rob players if once we kill them we can't? they emphasize so much on putting money in your bank so it's safe, but when you get killed by another player R* steals more money then the guy who killed you can anyway. this makes bounties below 5k super irrelevant to anyone with money because if two players go after a guy with a bounty and the bounty is only worth 5k, you kill the guy with the bounty and get the 5k then the 2nd player chasing the bounty kills you, you just lost the 5k you made.. The money system is broken in free roam and the cops constantly get involved in fucking everything, you do a gang attack? Now they want to kill you, a player camps outside your apartment waiting to kill you when you leave, you kill the player instead, oh now the cops want to kill you, you bump, literally gently stroke a cop car with your car on the motor way oh shit better run 'cos now the cops wanna kill you. what also sucks is again if you have loads of money when the cops kill you, which seems like every 5 minutes, you lose 5k. Death matches - broken Races - depends on what you want Free roam - frustrating, stupid lump of shit Overall, it honestly amazes me that this game was made by two teams, one team did story, one did online, the story was epic, team story did a fucking excellent job Bravo team story, you guys rock, team online, wow what a massive bunch of fucking let downs I hope I don't sound mad I write this with a smile, I smile because I'm finally done with that broken piece of shit.

Brenden Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I think the online is fantastic with friends, I haven't sunk many hours into it but i've had an easy time ranking up. I played the deathmatches with just a pistol and came first every game, not a big problem at all. The only thing I agree on is the muting, too much of a hassle to mute and seems like everyone has a mic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Online is fantastic with friends.. yeah that's nice but that's not enough, it's should be fantastic on your own too.. it's not. And you won't be coming first if you play with me, I have all the guns except the mini gun and could quite happily spam RPG missles at you if I needed too, thing is though I never need too because I'm already too fucking powerful for anyone to handle that isn't my level, it's broken dude and that's the end of it. ;P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simpo Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 1. Have you trying hosting your own session so you can change your options? 2. If you go to your Quick Menu you can choose to mute everyone, only be able to hear friends, crews etc I am quite enjoying GTA Online, I have had no issues what so ever the whole time I've been playing, I enjoy that you have to work harder for money, I like that you get better missions as you climb higher in the ranks. Yes I want heists but I'm patient, they will come. If you do like it move onto another game 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you do like it move onto another game Some of us are playing online for the trophies though We can't just move one, we have to suffer with a broken frustrating game, if you are going for the plat, you won't like the game anymore once you have to get the 30 platinum awards trophy ;P Just saying. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, there is no right or wrong reason, as long as you enjoy yourself then it's all good, I have fun going for trophies and I've bought games for trophies before and thoroughly enjoyed them by surprise, if trophies didn't exist, I'd probably be outside more doing stuff with my life and not playing video games, but they do and now I'm a disgusting failure at life.. and we all lived happily ever after. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beyondthegrave07 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 To be honest, I'll end up getting this game only because my brother wants it and we share games. That's it. I'll play it, but if I don't enjoy this game or get to frustrated then, I'm going to stop playing it. There's a reason why my brother has GTA4 on his trophy list and it's not on mine...

Redgrave Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 Yeah, I agree. Red Dead Redemption felt more polished and thought out in comparison. It had it's problems, sure, but they didn't turn me away from the multiplayer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's all true but to play Video Games for the prime reason to obtain or accumulate trophies is wrong , And not to be offensive or anything but you don't have a lot of trophies .......

Haha maybe I was over exaggerating with the failure at life and not going outside, I'm not failing and I do go outside when I'm low on vitamin D. That's all true but to play Video Games for the prime reason to obtain or accumulate trophies is wrong , And not to be offensive or anything but you don't have a lot of trophies ....... Well in that case maybe it would be better for you if trophies didn't exist , I don't know what you did on Ps1 , Ps2 or any other gaming machine previous to this generation then , I can't be wrong here, it's all down to personal preference and I don't have a lot of trophies because I restarted 3 months ago, I got 6 plats in the first month and have been doing skyrim and GTA ever since Also I played the ps2 and ps1 when trophies weren't a thing, imagine it like a job you did for free, when you first started doing the job it wasn't a job it was a hobby then all the sudden people started paying you for it, you've been for for this job for so long and you've gotten used to being paid for it so much that you could never do it for free again. That's what it's like for trophies, trophies makes playing games for me a lot more fun it actually gives me a reason to play the game. If trophies didn't exist all I would play is fifa and cod.. I wouldn't branch out at all, thankfully they do and I'm a more well rounded gamer for it. Edited October 18, 2013 by Humonic 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Memnoch Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I'm failing to see the issue here. 1 - I don't have the game, but I'm going to be pretty confident in saying that you can create your own sessions, so why not put in your rules - I mean perish the thought you use the tools on this site such as gaming sessions to help build up online with users with around about the same level as you - here is a link : https://psnprofiles.com/gaming-sessions 2 - Pretty much all MP rewards higher level, more experienced players - From the feedback I have so far seen, there is much less to cry about compared to many other games 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoarMonkey42 Posted October 18, 2013 Share Posted October 18, 2013 I find it to be very fun when played with friends. In a game with randoms it's a mess and I steer clear of deathmatches because it would be horribly unfair for me at level 84 to go around playing with lower level people. Having said that I am rushing through it, trying to get all the trophies, just the Platinum Challenge one, the level 100 and the Rally Race one left I think. I am having a lot of fun though. It has problems for sure but with friends that aren't jerks it's a blast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
