I think the reason Rock$tar has delayed heists is because it's the only thing keeping people interested in their game.

 

As soon as they get released and everyone sees how crap and over-hyped they were the sh*t will hit the fan harder than ever before (even greater than when payouts were nerfed and cars removed).

 

All I know is, heists won't be out for a llloonnnggg time.

[Fuzzknuckles]

Lighten up, everyone. They don't have to give us daily f*cking updates to prove their content is going to be good. 

 

Imagine you were working a regular 9-5 job, but every half an hour someone asked you 'how's it going, can I get an update, can you show me your progress, can you tell me what's going on'?

 

Imagine you were painting a portrait for someone, and they asked you to show them each brush stroke as it happened. 

 

You'd get bored of that pretty quickly. Same goes for them. That's why they only show us things when they're ready. What would be the point of them showing something that, in a weeks time, they may have to radically alter?

 

I mean - look at how people have reacted to the differences between the trailer and the release version - people have been really, really childish about it. Perhaps they don't want to encourage the bed-wetters amongst us to piss their knickers with disappointment again.

I'm willing to bet that article is legit.

R* definately said heists would be comong but the game has only been out for 4 months.  It's still early days.  I would have been surprised if there was anything major released withing the first 6 months.

 

I don't recall R* ever mentioning CnC, drug dealing or the casino.  Maybe I missed it but this seems to be yet more fan based hype that is being blamed on R*.

If anyone thinks heists will be anything more than a glorified mission then prepare to be disappointed, they will be garbage. Mark my words.

Classic. So good you'd think it was truly wrote by R* themselves.

All the Commies on this forum upset 'cos R* actually made some f*cking money off a game it took them YEARS to make, jeez, I hate you and your Commie way of life

[Pitch~Black]

Funny how the fictional CnC, drug dealing and the casino are mentioned in the same sentence as heists.

 

Hey, R*, why u no tell us no news about our floating Death Star Moonbase apartments?

 

 

News on heists will happen. Heists will happen. When they do. This is R*. They aren't intimidated by the GTA Forums. angst of mere mortals. It's more like they're all "Check it out. People on a GTA fan forum want news now. How cute!". If they even notice at all, which is dubious.

Holy f*cking sh*t. I thought the day would never come. Someone on GTAF who talks sense.

 

It was 5 whole years between IV and V, Rockstar aren't gonna rush anything, they ain't gonna bend over backwards to appease some whiny douchebags on a forum, who only represent about 0.0000000000001% of their player base anyway.

real life is more interestin

 

 

 

Might I suggest that you not try to recreate anything you do in GTA in real life?  Especially trying to blow up a tank.

 

BTW, does anyone have bail money?  

 

At least I'm as poor in real life as I am in GTA!

Expect fresh news in a few weeks or so...

[saintsrow]

No News is Definitly NOT Good News

Geez this thread is such a painful, PTSD throwback to 2012. 

 

Maybe I am just a high maintenance fan or something,.  Back when we naively thought tha GTAV might come out in May 2012 and instead we suffered through more than a year of almost total silence from Rockstar, I can't even begin to describe the suffering.  And then we got the middling GTAV story, after all that.  And here we are, waiting for Rockstar marketing to do it to us again. 

 

Now I know how they operate, so I am not going to get wound up over months of silence. 

[BondageKitty]

People are too impatient. They said they would be announced this year and are still in development along with a story DLC. They aren't breaking any promises by not giving any news.

Best comment I've read so far. Brilliantly done!! 

[jesusalready]

What the christ?  R* just had a massive downtime last week to fix things.  It's been less than a week!

 

I wish there were voting options 1-5 on this forum - enough 1 votes and it gets locked or moved to a garbage forum where all the sh*tty posts end up.  I think almost every thread in this forum would get a 1 for being redundant or just massively stupid on something based on hearsay and not fact. Or they lack any grasp of writing skills and all the thread titles like the Huffington Post writes headlines for linkbait.  I swear half the OPs have been dropped on their heads.

 

But don't get me wrong.  There are some good threads here... on the other hand...

• Am I the only one? 
  • Yes! Those were NOT years of brainwashing by your parents.  You have been confirmed to be a little unique snowflake and nothing will ever, EVER be like you in this universe.
• I heard they nerfed Coveted
  • Which you heard from your father's brother's nephew's cousin's former roommate - that means absolutely nothing.
• Little kiddies and there mom - she sounded hot.
  • It's THEIR not THERE.  Also, this sounds familiar like it was posted before!
• Hey guys how does I kills tanks?
  • http://bit.ly/1f6sIqF
• Anybody else see this? / Can someone confirm this? / So let me get this straight. / This sh*t realy has to stop
  • What is "THIS"? Did you flunk 1st grade english when studying the art of forming a coherent question? We don't use pronouns when we have no frame of reference to the noun.
• How to kill tanks with a phone.
  • http://bit.ly/1f6sIqF
• Yet another Auto vs Free Aim thread
• GTAO Needs a Rave Scene.
  • This game isn't based on London in 1988 or the movie Groove (thankfully!)
• Finally!
  • and....?
• Question
  • Frickin ask it.
• Has anyone wondered why?
  • Why what? Finish your insipid thought.
• It has begun
  • What is IT?  Again with the pronouns!
• Erm, okay then.
  • This is a retort to something.  What caused it?
• ?

[Jaytee83]

Come on guys, seriously. You have all been playing GTA long enough to know this is how R* works, it's a part of the great marketing that goes into the game. They starve the huge fan base of info on GTA, throw us a bone and let us run wild with it but leaving us wanting more.

Word of mouth is a powerful tool, especially with such a huge online community that they have. There doing it again with heists and there isn't a single fecking day that goes by without a post about future DLC or heists. Just shows they have us watering at the mouth for it, so soon after launching GTA online.

R* are a bunch of prick teases and they're fecking great at it. They will keep teasing us with heists and then BANG they will hit us with them out the blue. Making our little peckers go up faster than a 12 year old boy who just stole his dad's playboy.

Under call and over deliverer...

Does everyone expect the heists to be the same scale as SP? Same payouts?

 

Delusional. Utterly delusional. 

[SFBryan18]

I expect the heists to be like missions we've already seen, I expect them to pay a lower amount than what people want, and I will enjoy them because they are more missions. If anyone has a cynical point of view about them, they can shove their opinion up their.. No one cares about how you feel. If we are having fun, and you're not, then f*ck off. And seriously...

[LuapYllier]

Same with every other game title.
Plan a release schedule, make statement that things will be released "in the first few weeks", players take that to mean everything in three weeks, players accuse them of lying/lazy/money grabbing, release content completely as per plan and oblivious to impatient and unhappy players, players complain that content does not meet imaginary and inflated expectations, players complete new content and recycle lying/lazy/money grabbing complaints...plan continues as per plan.
