Rockstar likes to patch money glitches as quickly as they come out, but they leave game breaking glitches that ruin other players’ fun and just let them stay for years. It’s like when they see players having fun, they’re like “Nope, you can’t do that, and now we’re going to ban you for trying to not give us money!” But nahh, when they see game breaking glitches that ruin other player’s fun they’re like “Eh, they’ll still give us money, keep that glitch in there for another year!”

“It should be a game, not a job” So true

[@DatAsuna]

One of the biggest problems with the heists is the mission design. Mostly, the organisation missions are far more fun because even when they reuse heist locations, they let you hit the objectives more free form, taking any approach that technically fulfils the objective. Steal a tank? You can jump in it and try to drive away, or you could have a friend do that while you get a cargobob copter and hook the tank to fly it to the objective while they use the turret on the AI. That's the kind of freedom GTAO should be all about, but the heists will give you harsh game overs for looking at an NPC the wrong way, or even just not using the exact road they scripted for you to drive on. Not to mention that at launch, whenever you hit one of these many failstates, the A button, which is usually repsawn in other modes, was for some reason "disband group" in heists only. Meaning if any 1 player in the group hit A out of muscle memory when they died, all 4 players would be kicked from the group and returned to the lobby. So more than half the time I ever spent playing heists, was just trying to actually get the missions to start.

I know I'm incredibly late to this video but the algorithm led me here and I have a few words on this. I was actually a new player in 2019. I got the game for my 18th birthday in March 2019, and when I hopped into online it was a nightmare. One of my very first experiences as a new player was being relentlessly harassed by a 12 year old boy on Mk II oppressor until his friend realized what was going on and made him chill out. Funnily enough, after that incident I became friends with that 12 year old boy and his crew and they were the ones that helped me gain some footing in the game. If it weren't for them, I may have entirely abandoned GTA online because there was absolutely nothing going for me as a brand new player. Everything good costs a ridiculous amount of money, jobs pay out in practically pennies, and I sure as hell couldn't afford to buy shark cards, so it was pretty much pointless to try. If I hadn't met more experienced players and had them take me under their wing (and run me through Bogdan repeatedly) I wouldn't have gotten anywhere at all. Now I have a nightclub, facility, bunker, avenger, terrorbyte, one of each kind of illicit business, my own office, a handful of nice vehicles, and a high end apartment, and yet I have NO incentive to engage with any of those things because the payout is so pathetic that it isn't worth the time I would have to invest in them and most of the missions related to those things require you to have other people to successfully complete them or put you in a situation where you're most likely to just get blown up by an oppressor and lose out on all your profits anyway. It's impossible to make any progress as a solo player on GTA online, and even with friends to help, it's still incredibly difficult and time consuming. I hate that everything I have in the game is directly the result of repeating the same heist over and over until I could recite the cutscenes in my sleep because it's the only efficient way to make enough money to buy anything worthwhile. Don't get me wrong, I had a lot of fun playing GTA online when I was still active, but only because of the people I met and made friendships with, not because the game itself was fun. GTA online is an incredibly tedious and frustrating experience and I really wish it wasn't. I've been a fan of Rockstar and the GTA series since I was just a child and seeing a series I grew up loving become so corrupted by corporate greed is just really depressing and makes me worry about the future of the series

@@tristanchaplin392 Reasonable and I did that too. Even if the video is mostly really on point and good work, it does miss the most essential problem. The forced PvP system. Every business you want to run in the open world is locked to open lobbies. It does not make any sense. Nearly All of the missions do include PvE enemies and a time-limit. They are hard enough for anyone before Level 100. On top of that a lot, a hell lot of freeroam activitities are not triggered when you play alone. They also contain PvE enemies and time limits and are even without other players annoying you very tough to deal with as a new player. I mean that is the main content in the open world and you cant enjoy the game without being constantly faced with toxic trolls. The Video Contributor asked a very important Question: Is Rockstar to blame for the worst community I have ever seen in a video game? Yes. It is no surprise that people are assholes. We all learned that already. And this is their fault. But Rockstar forces us to be assholes. You get constantly motivated to kill an other player. You get messages and calls that you need to kill other players. You get unbalanced high rewards for following their orders. It is way harder to start a mission, get to the location, do the activity and then being forced to use a vehicle to get the wares safe back to your storage. This is the real problem about GTA Online. The Rest would be bearable if we would get PvE-Only Lobbies without gameplay restrictions. I dont care about idiots and hackers if I dont have to play with them. I dont care if I need to grind to buy essential content or just cosmetics. I dont care if you can buy all the content for real money if you are able to grind it. But what I definitely agree with is the embarassing female character selection. Whats so wrong about long hair?

[@EduMiguel16]

I was expecting to see more details about the loading times and times to do anything at all, like changing through different jobs and start jobs with friends. Attempting to join a friends session contantly gives an error or jobs are started without the chance of inviting friends. When jobs are started without your friends, then you have to leave that job, you get more session errors leaving that job, go get to the story mode, go back online, try to join a friends session and hope it doesn't give an error again, so that you can TRY to join any job with a friend again. Another thing is the time to request any vehicle or an aircraft, it just spawns on a far away road and you have to run to get there, and this is if it wasn't previously exploded by rando because you have to call the insurance first

I played a lot in 2013/2014 and came back every once in a while. Back when the game came out, you'd have to watch your back when you were driving around, but most players just went about their business, the most you'd worry about it someone in an Adder driving by to sticky bomb you, or someone who took a jet from the military base. But it just got to the point where the moment I'd step out of my apartment I'd get blown up by someone in a flying bike or car. And it's sad to see how hard and time consuming it is to earn money and buy new vehicles, back when I played the only way that was even decently respectful of your time was to continuously grind Rooftop Rumble and Titan of A Job, even that felt like a grind but now it seems way worse. I've been curious to see how GTAO has changed since I stopped and wow, I don't think I'll be coming back :( Even though this video is a few years old, it seems the same today.

[@cjstibitz2130]

@@winter2060 look rockstar is screwed up don't get me wrong. I had everything in the game. 3 high end apartments with 30 fully customized vehicles which was the max. 42 Pegasus vehicles including gold luxor and swift. With 50 million in my account on top of that. And I was level 560 to boot. Rockstar took that all away because i didn't get an Xbox one until the Xbox one x came out. I got it day one. I was fresh out of high school just started working so I couldn't buy an Xbox one in time to transfer my character. I didn't do anything about it for over two years after getting my Xbox one x because rockstar canceled their phone and email support you can no longer reach them by those methods. I was totally unaware you could contact them on the rockstar support. When I found out I could contact them 2 years later I had reached level 134 in GTA online and had done a ton of grinding. But basically quit because grinding in a game I already grinded in for years and already owned everything in previously was killing me. But upon contacting rockstar they gave me 10 of my 50 million dollars back. Gave me my old rank back. Nothing else vehicles or property. Or stats. I'm not sure why they didn't add my next gen level 134 to my old gen 560. I should have been rank 697. Instead I was 560. I got screwed worse than anyone. I played 111 days I broke out the 360 recently to check before contacting rockstar so I could show them how much of my time they wasted. They told me they cannot help me anymore than they have. But. I had already grinded pretty far in next gen buying a CEO office and vehicle warehouse and bunker and hanger. Now I bought the clubhouse the meth coke cash businesses and the nightclub. If you afk with your nightclub it's not bad at all. I have 53 million after 40 days of doing this. And I don't have to spend all day grinding. I can leave my house do whatever I want I don't have to have no life. And I can still make $880,000 a day from my nightclub. I may get banned who knows but it's working out so far. I could afford practically anything in the game now if I wanted. But I really only bought 2 things. A hydra. And the Krieger cause I think it's the best car in the game. The hydra is still easily the best attack vehicle in the game. If you are a good pilot you can still own the lobby with it. And though the Krieger maybe slightly slower than vehicles like the 811 and furia. It has extremely higher acceleration and way better handling and smokes either one of those cars if you are getting into car chases. That's all you need. Enough money to buy sticky bombs. A Krieger. A hydra. And about 50 million in your bank account as a comfort zone. Hopefully in the future they will add another business like the nightclub where you can profit while afk and then I will make about 2 mil per day even though I don't really do anything

Of course back then you could lose a whole Weeks worth of grinding spending all your money on sticky bombs, and destroying the griefer tank would cost you a fine, and they got it back within 2 minutes flat... There were options though. It could be avoided as the tank can't be everywhere at once. Stealing a jet at the mil base was a super effective counter provided one didn't crash or get shot down by NPCs. Could also passively resist. I personally enjoyed trying to get the jet and failing that, flaming car bomb suicides. Got 'em every time half the time.

Back in the day I used to like going online, though back then I used to have friends. Set up a private server and just have a bunch of people driving around hunting rare cars so the others can load up some cheap garage and sell them whenever they needed the money. Or using sticky bombs to blow open doors of money vans and get away. Or even chain missions together and work toward buying tank, buzzard, and armoured cars - no toxicity, no players nuking the field and no hackers. Good times. I’m sure nowadays there is more to do but back then I would have loved for them to do something with the stock market instead of it just being on campaign with vague obscure hints on how to invest and where to invest. I remember completing the game and needing money, but because solo campaign won’t let you replay heists and keep the money, you had to be creative and buy property but some of them where boring. It wasn’t like GTA: Vice City or IV where you do a bunch of stuff for your property and it generates money on its own, you had to destroy cars yourself for $15 reward per car for scrap yard, and get $50 per car towed from towing property. Vice city generated money AFK and IV gave you perks such as LJ’s discount weapons/Romans free taxi/paddies car bombs. I jumped off the game when it was becoming a time sink, thankfully I never spent real money online.

Story Mode: Heists and incredible gunfights! Exciting missions and interesting characters! Fast cars, money, and all the other indulgences you can think of! GTA Online: Paying bills, getting harassed by people to buy things, constantly getting blown up and shot to fuck by NPCs with aim so good they could hit an apple at LSIA from the top of Mt. Chiliad, MK2 Griefers everywhere.

[@thegamerfrog7048]

I think playing GTA online on Xbox one is much better than playin' on PC or PS4 cause I barely find any griefer, MK2, or toxic players in Xbox Instead, People in GTA online on Xbox are friendly :)

I think online is great, but like you mentioned all the play to win stuff does make it feel restrictive if you wanna grind to earn new vehicles or weapons.

"60 dollars got us the game, but 100 dollars get's us an helicopter? do you see where this goes wrong." Rockstar: my god.. you are right. Raise the game price to 100 dollars as well!

[@cameronmoore7675]

You forgot about the part where Rockstar straight up deletes accounts, and doesn't allow people to transfer to their characters to preferred platforms, essentially nullifying countless hours and hundreds, if not thousands of dollars' worth of in-game purchases. This is a game that has no respect for its players' time or money. That's why players are taking it back with cheats and mods.

[@pupusalover]

@@benc.3128 if a modder dropped me 200mil i would simply buy the bases i need to unlock all the heists and do them all once. its a pain in the ass to do a single heist for hours just to unlock another one i will also be doing for hours. that isn't fun at all.

[@fdjp7338]

@@benc.3128 i agree w u, i dont like modders and personally i stay away from online it self so i dont get banned for getting gifted money (i heard they can ban you if they detect a sudden rise in money), but to be fair rockstar really needs to make grinds worth it, you grind for a really cool vehicle and then realize you cant use it outside of free roam. Or u complete a really hard heist and all it gives u is 400,000 and only doing it once. And yeah the game would be boring if there is no goal, but if the goal deals with 20+ hours of grind to get it, thats one goal out of like at this point 100s. Just makes you get worn out doing the same things over and over and then because no single player online content is available almost, you are forced to go online and do things that will get you 5 oppressors coming for you. So personally i just want rockstar to make things fair to get, specially better rewards for completing one time things (old heists for example) aswell as being able to do them alone.

the problem with GTA 5 isnt rockstar. its all the playerbase who support this type of business practice. its only going to get worse, unless you STOP opening up your wallet, and accept the loss of investing in purchasing a game, that tries to further milk you for everything it can. the only way this stops is if THE PLAYER BASE, starts "voting" with their wallets....or more so, dont "cast a vote" by giving them any form of money.
