This is a situation that kept escalating over the years. Most importantly, you have to bear in mind that Rockstar deals with instances like this at a global scale, and if the worst case were to happen, that is if the character wipe were to sweep legitimate players of all progress, then Rockstar would respond back with a global-scale restitution process. The policies against such acts kept changing and becoming much harsher and more detailed over time. It was only last year, that a new policy was established, in which Rockstar dipped into the specifics of acts like glitching and pledged severe penalties to whoever abuse such methods, and no one took it seriously. Just like how Rockstar deals with such instances globally, the severity of the wipe is considered on a global scale basis. Even if Rockstar were to set aside the legislation, which is extremely unlikely to happen, the response to the casino chip glitch was evident enough for players to think twice before participating in such act. To be clear, I'm not resenting you or anything, I too would have preferred it if Rockstar chooses the proper sentence for such acts based on the severity of the exploitation, but I can't blame them for something a player should have thought twice before doing.

If only they would of done this in early 2014 and scared people to begin with to not "cheat" money. Instead they waited years to finally do something. Mind you it took them like 2 years to finally go after that cash they let players transfer to 8th gen. Kinda scary when they do nothing for like 6 years than suddenly take the nuclear option. Much like their publisher who goes Defcon 1 on anyone or anything that is using their work without their permission without asking questions first. Wiping players years of progress is a lazy way of going about all this. They should of instead taken the money from the pool they made from this glitch and given a temp ban. Something they should of done with the locate plane glitch with lester. Giving players a temp ban would of scared them into not doing the chips glitch and apartment glitch. People didnt think they were serious since they showed that "we caught you" screen. This just proves they care more about the damn money the instead of anything else that happens within the game. Think there is a reason they keep losing top employees left and right. Players making people quit the game for good from griefing them badly enough? R* Uh, lets add something that lets them grief even more that we can also heavily monetize. Players using godmode speedo for about 2 years and other god mode glitches, even a godmode glitch that is working as we wipe players for "cheating"? R* Uh, everything's under control. Situation normal. Players "cheating" money in a 7 year old game where a majority of players have cheated in someway since launch? R* OMG CHEATER WIPE WIPE - Our poor defenseless game balance. How could our players ever do this????? The money cards should also count as cheating since its just a paid version of something you could exploit for money. Paid cheating is just as bad as free cheating.

They knew the risks, no sympathy.

Didn't plan on buying this one when ot first released, but then I started to really like to look of it. So anyway here is mine.

It would still be easily usable without driving it out of the club. You can spawn it with interaction menu in vehicles tab or using it to sell nightclub stuff. Is it the same professionalism they used when they blocked a 15 second shortcut with a boulder?

Saw a rather convincing character edit of Lee van Cleef and decided to make my own after seeing some sort of template.

No offense, but even I think thats stupid. Heck I think that the full on resets are a little harsh even if the people who did this specific glitch should recieve a darwin award for their stupidity. Take the cash they glitched and the stuff they bought since they got detected, in addition give them a temp ban for a month, problem solved. Next time they do it, all of the above with a 2 month temp, the next time one month more and so on. Thats how moneyglitches should be punished. Resetting accounts is pretty much the lazy "we dont give a f*ck about you unless you pay us money and even then we dont care" way of doing it. Before they ban people for glitching cash, they should consider banning godmode jets and speedos. And before that happens, I personally could not give any less of a f*ck about people who glitch their cash. I hope you think the same about the people who buy cashcards. There is pretty much only one diffrence between glitched and bought cash, the real world money forked over to R*.

I started by grinding contact missions. I quite enjoyed it as well.

I don't really know. I trust Jason Schreier over any insider, any day. And GTA VI was considered to be early in development, as of April 2020. Which matched with my own analysis. I'd guess, anywhere from 30% - 40% Keep in mind, the game is still years away. I believe what those insiders could have heard was misunderstood information. The game may have been 70% complete, but still had years left of QA to do, and a lot of work still left to do on the content that they had done. For example, looking at the bug log for GTA V, they had all the missions worked out as of 2011, but they were still working on them up until 2013. A lot. So that 70% may have represented the structure and framework of the game (missions, side missions, activities, general map and locations, etc). But that's just what they could have been told. key word could. But the game is still years away, hasn't even been announced yet. So based on that, 30% - 40% with a little over 3 years left to go sounds about right, presuming full development bagan after RDR2 released, just under 2 years ago. Admittedly, that's more of a progress bar percentage.

I find that hard to believe, due to how specific it could get from the technical aspect. I don't know how Rockstar have exactly done it, but if I were to guess, I would say it's a process that starts with checking whether your seventh or eighth property slots are used before proceeding to check how much money you have earned from property trade via filtering out the "earn_from_property_trade" stat and checking how many times or on how many occasions have you traded in your properties, then verifying both results upon a certain criteria that determines who's glitching and who's not. It can get more oddly specific than that since Rockstar have the records and can see what was the value of the seventh or eighth property and what is the current value. You can easily find a pattern that way and find out who's glitching.

It's working fine here, still in low pop lobbies. I hope this never gets fixed.

expecto patronum or stealo idealo

They actually fixed a solo god mode glitch a few days ago (but glitchers were quick to find a workaround), are you referring to the Speedo custom glitch? If so, they have been aware of it for a long time now, but the fix is complicated, I would say it even requires a drastic change to the design aspect of the feature. The thing is the situation inside their studios is a race of resource consumption pressured by priorities and dealing with the unknown, that is all the issues we as players are unaware of. I'm not trying to justify their reasoning to overlook such glitch for years now, it truly sucks, but I think Rockstar wants to abide by their standards or what is called professionalism, to fix the bug while maintaining the same layout, which at this point, I would consider Mission Impossible. Rockstar would have fixed the issue if they were to set aside "professionalism" and just disable people from exiting the nightclub garage with the Speedo custom, simple as that. It's a stupid fix, but hey, there are much worse things in this game that is worth your frustration than not being able to exit your nightclub garage with your Speedo custom.

Colt..Colt.....Did I ever tell you about the bankjob in Tennessee??

Mine's had lots of lives to the point where I'm strongly considering picking up a second one. I was inspired by the Jeep Honcho for my most recent iteration of it.

turn! Mission: The Party Link: https://gtasnp.com/JxafDX Completion %: 3.25% Notes: Paramedic completed. Pizza boy completed.

Tire marks. That is clearly cheating as a motorcycle. It should be banned from the game for cheating.

Those that were banned/reset knew what would happen if they performed the glitch. What annoys me most is those that glitched are pissed at Rockstar for actually resetting or banning them. Like, wot de akchule fuq m8...

Well I was not affected since I did not take part in it. All I can say on the matter is, that people should have known better. At this point R* or better TakeTwo (they are practicly the same company so you could say both) are only in it for the money. 99% of the content in this game is pretty much set up to railroad people into recurrent consumer spending. So you can bet your a$$ that they will do everything to keep the cashflow going. If that means whipeing everybody who takes part in any form of moneyglitch, they will do it. And they could not give any less of a f*ck if the people who got whiped come back or not, either. The people who got whiped werent making them any cash anyway (since they got their cash through glitching), so from a bussiness standpoint they are practicly nonexistant. And no offense, if people are using something as heavily monitored as the propertys to glitch metric f*cktons of money, that pretty much calls for a darwin award.

The world is amazing with these smaller Lobbies. The number of NPC's is as close or very close to SP, everything spawns correctly and being able to move around without NPC's fleeing or laying dead is great.

I think you might be right about a lot of those mk2 riders doesn't know what the grind is but I think you'd be surprised if you knew how many of them have the mk2 because of shark cards https://support.rockstargames.com/articles/360053645753/Property-Trade-In-Abuse-in-Grand-Theft-Auto-Online lol, so much for that healthy game environment when people buy fish cards..

referring to that account should be illegal

It's like playing a whole different game. Random events EVERYWHERE as well as Legendary Animals. I found more Legendaries yesterday than I had found since the update released until yesterday combined. NPC's and animals in places I haven't seen them in a long time (both pens full of horses at Ridgewood Farm, something I haven't seen in a while). This is the experience I want all the time.

A special helicopter that can go underwater when? They mentioned it twice already (vcs and casino slot machine). Still waiting for it R* ! I want my AirWolf, even if its a shark!

Nobody "stumbles" into a glitch. Every person who did this glitch knew what they were doing, took the risk, and unfortunately paid the price. I think when considering doing a glitch, you kinda have to do a risk assessment, looking at the notoriety, difficulty and earning potential. Car duping tends to fly under the radar because there are controls and measures to prevent people making crazy money off it in a short period of time (i.e. vehicle sell limits), and there's usually a larger setup required (needing an MDC, spawn locations, timing, alert screens etc). Even things like the Bogdan glitch have a setup required, and also need the people in the mission to be on the same page. However, when you look at things like this glitch, the Casino Chips glitch and the Orbital Cannon glitch, they're fast, give infinite cash, require very little setup, and they're posted by every clickbait YouTuber out there. So for most of us with well-established accounts and high levels it really wouldn't be worth doing it, because it didn't take a genius to realise that a cash reset was inevitable. However, I do not think the punishment fits the crime. Cash "adjustment" would be fair. Cash adjustment and 30-day ban would be acceptable. To me, a character reset would be the equivalent of a permanent ban. I wouldn't return to the game, and I'd be a bit gutted at the loss of all the memories I've made in this game.

Just a reminder that those "professionals" had a look of the stock Willard Faction, update it's hitbox to make the rear tires larger and patched a texture that leaves the windows up when you remove the T-tops, but didn't bothered to fix the two biggest problems it has: The collision issue caused by a active lowrider flag on it's handling.meta which can be easily disabled without altering anything else on this car or any other lowrider for that matter. And the hilarious texture bug that makes it's stock plain hood turn into a turbo bulge hood when you detach it from the car. Also the downright ridiculous tailight bug bug on the Lampadati Casco, caused by a mere typo on its rear light Corona, fixed by merely correcting the typo... But apparently those so called "professionals" are unable to do any of that since 2015. They already replaced how features worked in the past because of bugs related to it, them removing the ability from the Speedo Custom to leave the Nightclub Garage directly through the customization menu would not be something new to them at all. They don't fix the issue because they are either incompetent, negligent or both...After all the Speedo Custom can't really be used as a money cheat, and it's not even a 100% foolproof god mode glitch.

I didnt took part but i am still effected. Havent been obliterated for days now. Lol.

Hey, I wasnt affected in any way but just wanted to pitch in. I agree that creators should get some kind of in game salary for their efforts, but then how do you decide the height of that salary? is it based on how many tracks they make? when the made their last track? how many likes their tracks got this week? all of the above?? Wouldn't any of these make it real easy for people to start 'cheating' that system and getting a 'salary' they dont deserve? Besides that nothing against your friends/crew-members, but i strongly disagree with "they made tracks so R* should cut them some slack", its exactly as you said, people that have gotten the more serious wipes (losing ALL money, or even more) got them because they have been warned/in trouble in the past, with the new version of the game around the corner it was pretty obvious the moment the apartment glitch was found (by the general public anyway, the actual glitch has been around for a few months) that they would be acting on that, so anyone getting into trouble for it can only blame themselves. Ofc R* wasnt going to let people make 2mil in 2mins (or whatever the exact tagline was) and get away with it. I doubt anybody that has gotten any form of wipe agrees, but imo its commendable of R* that they only wiped the glitched funds of first offenders, a few years ago they would've just instantly banned everybody involved regardless of severity and history, the fact that they are essentially letting first offenders off the hook (only taking away what was gained from the glitch and nothing else) is kinda nice in a way, i feel like people should be a little more grateful, focus on that bit (you got caught yet R* doesn't really blame you) rather then focus on your now 'missing' funds. People that got wiped should draw a lesson from this: Rockstar is and likely always will be lack-luster about glitches and cheats, but they are not completely incompetent & when they want to they can easily see what accounts have illegal funds/flags, dont ever forget this wake-up call. Only you can prevent forest fires getting your account wiped Its safe to assume that no legit player was affected, thats just one of those typical responses people have, "oh shi i gotten wiped / banned, how am i going to tell my gta buddies/crew/whatever, oh i know, i'll just claim to be a false positive" Like has been mentioned in this thread before, R* doesn't really make mistakes when doing these wipes, because of what they have to do if they f- up (roll back the whole thing & try again, while also having to give some kind of bonus to the players they wrongly wiped before, and possibly deal with lawsuit-culture-americans) they will be more inclined to give somebody the benefit of the doubt vs banning cases they are unsure about (which is why some people will successfully 'fly under the radar' and keep their funds) so what this really means is they will be able to justify the wipes and bans that do happen in court. Think about that for a moment, theres no way they just blindly swing the ban hammer, that would cause them a lot of trouble.

And they're doing a really great job with that with their focus on mostly patching money and merge glitches while leaving game breaking bugs in the game for ages.. One can argue that if they didn't need to patch those kind of glitches they would have more time to patch other things but that is just a priority thing, doesn't matter if the game is playable or not as long as the money is flowing in, this character reset situation just shows that

have you ever seen a guy hanging upside down from a tree? I just have. shot him down, then had the option to either accept or decline a reward. accepted, and he gave me jewelry (silver locket something). also, ran into a legendary elk and got me that pelt. all thanks to small lobbies!

Or the same professionalism when Rockstar created a janitorial cart to prevent you from taking a shortcut in the casino heist.

Makes sense Just hoping in the December update they finally do something about the massive god mode issue. I bet more people know about how to get in godmode than knew about this apartment glitch. No way they don't know about the god mode situation. So when will they go after the players who spam doing the heist finales over and over again? Its much faster than lester plane glitch was. Its a big money exploit really.

Haven't seen an ambush in months. Ran into 2 of them today. What a joy and alive world again. Really, if this is maintains, I'm back in the game again.

I don't care if others glitch money. I'm an avid glitcher but I grinded enough money before I got into glitching so I never did a money glitch, not even the heist finale replay glitch aka Bogdan. (I have participated in the duped gold glitch from the casino heist but only when receiving 15% cut.) For example, I figured out an aircraft / special vehicle merge for PC to get access to customization that is otherwise unavailable. I did enjoy grinding but I can totally see why others don't. Even if you only want to buy a few vehicles it means serious grinding. That's why money glitches are so popular in the first place. Maybe Rockstar should consider lowering prices and/or increase income instead of wiping people who glitch money. I think Rockstar went with the wipe because they figured glitchers don't spend money on sharkcards anyway, but there are some who improve the gaming experience for others. The casino heist is definitely a good way for wealthy players to help poor players make money though, and can even be glitched like Bogdan, so maybe that's a solution for your crew members, @Jenkiiii.

That’s why I don’t do the heists. I can’t stand Lester’s voice on top note all the way to the locations. There’s no need for it.

I don’t think anyone in my crew was affected, but I could see someone waiting to “quit” without making it obvious that they were wiped. Either way, I have no sympathy. The glitch was easy, and a lot of the people I’ve seen complaining expected their balance to be adjusted, but seeing all these “I had all my garages filled with Deluxos/PR4s” it makes sense that R* went with full wipes. They’re not stupid, adjusting bank accounts when people have millions in cars wouldn’t have done anything.

I'm not really into any of those cars, sorry But anyways, new tuning part for the voodoo (convertible roof)

i don´t know if that has something to do with GTAO, but R* added qabeta2 and a launch parametr for Max Payne 3 maybe Max Payne 3 will finally get the launcher on steam?

They should make a "Ten figure temps" (temporary) T-Shirt for all those wiped billionaires.
