cops and robbers

[ERKelly]

is this game mode in gta v online?

 

have they removed most game modes from gta iv?

It's not yet. I'm hoping it makes it into the game. I'd be nice if they removed the NPC/AI police, and had a "free mode' where players could pick to play the cops, like in the game APB:Reloaded. That game is fun for being a "Cops and Robbers" game. David Jones (the creator of GTA) and the original Devs had great ideas with APB, and it was a solid third person-shooter/mmo game, but sadly their (RTW) marketing strategy, and mismanagement killed the game and company. The rights and were bought by a F2P company as APB: Reloaded where it's slowly dying due to lack of further development and real support. Hell that game has one of the best character customization I have seen in a MMO.

 

 

Anyway back to my point. if R* does it right, GTA:O has the potential to be everything ABP:R is wishes it could or be or could have been. Being able to "witness" other players commit various crimes, and chase them around rather than having the AI police would be kick ass.

Yes it is, there is similar missions but goodluck playing them because getting a full lobby or even finding people wanting to do missions instead of deathmatch is impossible lol....

True having only 16 players for a map that size blows. Sadly the 360 and PS3 are holding the game back in that regard (IMO of course). Here's to hoping the next Gen consoles can double, or even quadruple the amount of players on map. I have know doubt that PCs can handle the game in it's full glory (and hope V makes an appearance on the PC in the next year or sooner).

It's not really the amount of players in a freeroam session, its the matchmaking thats the problem its total sh*t, but yes even if you are in a 16 man freeroam it is unlikely more then 3 people will accept your mission invite. And the auto-find feature never seems to find anyone so half of the time your stuck in a half full lobby for 10 minutes and then people who were in with you end up leaving because it doesn't fill...i am yet to do a mission that requires 8 players with 8 players...its always 2-3 and if its a 2 seperate team mission where you go head to head its completely crap and unfair.
