Well not "forever" but why not keep up these sort of updates? It's one of the best MMOs on consoles with so much to do with fun being at the forefront of the experience. I hope they at least keep the updates rolling in until GTA 6.

I don't play GTA online as heavily as I use to, but checking back in every now and then is pretty nice seeing all the new weapons and vehicles etc. Brings more life to the game and the support is commendable.

Calling it now RDR Online will be the next big thing

scark923640d ago

I loved the online in RDR!

KyRo3640d ago

The multiplayer in RDR and Max Payne 3 were amazing but Rockstar lost me with GTAO. I couldn't stand all the loading.

Loading game... Connecting to GTAO... Connection error... Joining lobby... Match wll start in 90 seconds. More loading... It's so tedious.

RDR had it right.

LucasRuinedChildhood3640d ago

Yeah. I like GTAO quite a bit, but I thought RDR felt a lot more seamless. Ironically, the world didn't feel as empty either, because they were spawning in a similar amount of NPCs, whereas there is a noticeable disparity in GTA Online, between it and the campaign. There was also all the farms to casually attack in the open world with friends which was awesome. The co-op horde mode in Undead Nightmare was an unbelievable amount of fun as well.

You really thought the mp in MP3 was amazing? Compared to what? I am not trolling and i am really curious. I put tons of hours in MP3 mp but compared to the likes of Uncharted mp it just looked and felt so awkward. Controls were nowhere as smooth and felt clunky. What i did like about it was all the customization in that i think it was better than most mps. MP3 mp was definitely not amazing but it was serviceable

We all have opinions and i respect them but it always gives me a brain spasm whenever i see others criticize Uncharted mp but say an the mp from a game like say Far Cry 3 lol or MP3 was awesome (this comment isnt directed at you as you did not mention Uncharted at all, just a general thought.)

By the way i enjoyed RDR mp alot and on that one i agree, although it kinda died fast from what i remember on PS3.

Anyway your opinion would be greatly appreciated.

PurpHerbison3640d ago

Every time I wanted to get on GTAO I felt like it was a gamble. Am I actually going to get into that race? Or will I face several loading screens until I finally decide to call it quits.

joab7773640d ago (Edited 3640d ago )

I can't wait!!! Though having just started F04, working and going to school, it will be awhile b4 I get to anything else. I'll spend a whole night building a settlement.

hells_supernova3640d ago

How good was the shoot out before each match. Loved that multiplayer. Really hoping another one releases' soon

I am sure "Not Permanent" is said in context that it shouldn't be considered as a standalone MMO. (not in strict sense)

By that I mean GTA6 will have its own Online mode and people should move on to that one. We will move on.
I'm just guessing that Take2 might think we will get angry when they cut support of GTA5online once GTA6online rolls.

@garrett : I think everybody expects them to. Am I wrong in assuming this ?

garrettbobbyferguson3640d ago

Sounds more like they're warning people that they intend to eventually abandon it.

Austin483640d ago

I hate gta online I only play it for the single player.

Psychotica3640d ago

I don't hate it, I just wished they would have made all events functional for solo gamers.

JackBNimble3640d ago

There are a ton of missions you can do solo but you can't expect all of them to be that way. I often do missions solo, even survival missions .

PlayStation is GTA and GTA is PlayStation, they're going to kill it when GTA 6 is finally released 😏.

Maybe that's because xbox and PC have much more variety in their online offerings.

ActualWhiteMan40d ago

And the players arent hood rats

S2Killinit40d ago

Like in what parallel universe?

blacktiger39d ago

I know of people that own a PS4 exclusively to play gta5, and that’s all they play. I’m sure some of you here know of someone too. I’m surprised at how low the revenue for PC is.

CrimsonIdol40d ago (Edited 40d ago )

I can't tell you what it's like on PS5 but it's absolutely horrific on PC. My experience is constant hackers and a game that feels like it hates you playing with your own friends too, always seems like a chore to manage to join some minigame together without somehow ending up in different server instances n shit. If I were going to bother with it I'd probably do it on console too.

My guess is also that there are modded versions of GTA online with massive communities on PC that are way better than the rockstar approved version and Rockstar isn't making money out of those.

S2Killinit40d ago

Those are the types of things people forget when they are talking about PC gaming.

ActualWhiteMan40d ago

That’s because most PlayStation fans are ghetto. Source…Every ghetto person I know, plays on PlayStation.

Outside_ofthe_Box40d ago

Rich folks like Epstein did play Xbox, so maybe you're right.

S2Killinit40d ago

Lol maybe you need a new perspective on life?

Aloymetal39d ago

Be glad the ''ghetto'' PS fans around the globe are spending money because they're practically single handedly keeping the gaming industry from crashing and burning. Can't say the same for MS and their miniscule green fanbase.

ChunkyMonk39d ago

Yet those "PS fans" didn't save Concord, Marathon, Highguard or Helldivers 2. Hell, Helldivers 2 and Marathon are only on life support cuz of PC. lol

blacktiger39d ago

ghetto or not, they are gamers right? Now what about Call of Duty same thing>?

Actually really surprised with the PC revenue which is an abysmal 3% overall vs Console (PS and Xbox combined) at a whopping 97%. It now makes sense why Take Two/Rockstar prioritizes Consoles. Heck, they could even delay the PC port release 2 to 3 years and it wouldn't make any impact at all.

ocelot0739d ago

I think its due to FIVEm. A lot of GTA PC players seem to just play that so don't need the shark cards or a way to even use them for fivem.

LostPotato39d ago

They already delay PC ports by a year or two already so nothing new.
