Anonamix Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 When I was looking over the collector's edition I found it unique the way that Rockstar worded info about multiplayer.. Custom Characters for Grand Theft Auto Online Get classic Grand Theft Auto characters to use within the Grand Theft Auto Online Character Creation System. Now, I know that marketing is to make everything sound great and all.. but Grand Theft Auto Online intrigues me a lot more that just multiplayer. Most games that include the word online are for MMO types of spin-offs. I doubt this is what we have in store.. but maybe some new features? Features that would work well in Grand Theft Auto Online? - GTA online sounds very much like a social network of some sort. Maybe there will be more ways to connect and share with our friends. I would like to access Rockstar social club within the game and I would assume that many new online features will be built around the crew system. - Maybe the character we make using the new "Grand Theft Auto Online Character Creation System" will actually have a HOME. Zoom out and back onto your multiplayer character standing in his safehouse that works as a lobby. Something like the clubhouse in TLAD, you can watch TV and play pool with people in your party/crew/lobby or whatever. Also unlocking decorative items, weapons, clothing for your safehouse as you level up? - Grand Theft Auto Online could possibly include free roam similar to RDR, allowing us to gain xp and do small co op missions together. Missions like.. hmm hiests? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KrushLTx10 Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I like the idea. I'd get a safehouse in Malibu or Santa Monica. Have a Dukes, Sabre, or Super GT as my cars. As for the heists I think that will come out to be a whole different game mode. We'd be lucky for it to be included in free roam. I think we'd just have something similar to RDR where you go to a certain area and you kill enemies, maybe turf wars? But this time around you have to press a button to activate it. It was pretty annoying in RDR that you just rode past it and the gang hideout activated. There could also be various stores you could rob. Seeing as how they said GTA V will do to multiplayer like GTA 3 did to singleplayer we're in for a big treat. I hope we can have 32 people online on consoles. Wishful thinking but it'd be extremely fun to play with that many people on a map of this size. I'd even settle for 24 people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few weeks ago, someone on the forums suggested that heists could be like the 'Gang Hideouts' in RDR which I thought was a pretty good idea and something that could be done Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is blatant exaggeration. GTA3 was revolutionary in every single way, it defined modern gaming. V's multiplayer will be amazing, no doubt, but not to the point that they say.

GrandMaster Smith Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I thought the same thing when reading GTA online.. I think they're going to do something similar to SAMP RPG's in a since but more professional and probably not as boring like with tedious jobs and whatnot. And hopefully for the love of god more than 16 players in one lobby. Black Hawk Down on original Xbox had like 64 player multiplayer, don't see why we can't do that now.

I cant wait for GTAO they said it would be epic, they aint let me down yet its like the ppl saying "oh yeah the trailers look sweet but the game wont look like that"... Why these douches dont try lookin at previous rockstar trailers?? It turns out whith rockstar what you see is what you get, I cant see them changing now.

J-B Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Said the makers of SAMP, WoW, or any MMORPG for that sake.. All of those are PC games. If a really large player count was easily possible on current consoles then we wouldn't see the Battlefield games limit themselves to 24 players down from 32-64 on PC. The best we can realistically expect is 24 on consoles, and I'm not even expecting that. I expect it to stay at 16 for stability's sake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apollo_33 Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I don't expect anything earth-shattering. The MP will obviously and somehow involve crews, that we know. But to me, there's no room for a ''deep MP experience'' - let alone something MMO-like on a console which will supports 24 players online at MOST.

Yes but PC's running games which requirements meet that of a PS2... You really don't need that much power to run those games. And like I said Black Hawk Down had like 50 players on the original Xbox so it's definitely possible to push it, I just don't think anyone's tried very hard this gen.

matt_be Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I like the idea of this. I just wish it was possible to have more than 16 players in a game at one time. Maybe it is, but I doubt Rockstar would do it considering that all of their games since GTA IV, aside from LA Noire, had a 16 player limit. Or maybe they were able to pull something off to bring in just a few more players. Hopefully we'll find out soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
