GTA IV's Online Multiplayer 'or' GTA Online? Be honest...

What do you enjoy more? What do you miss that was in GTA IV but isn't in GTA Online?

 

Anybody else miss the good ol' classic Free Mode game type without the blips on the radar of missions and all that other stuff? (There's ALOT!)

 

You know, without having to worry about making money or doing missions. Just straight up Free Mode like it was in GTA IV?

GTA 5. Sure IV's free roam was fun but limited. Gtao has much potential. Plus giving people the bird & swerving off is funny.

 

Plus you dont have to do missions or any of that stuff, unless you want money/clothes/cars/guns/properties. You could just ride around level 1 all the time lol

GTA IV is still more fun to me after playing GTAO for two days. IV had trolls but they could be easily dealt with, I'm sick of getting killed by trolls on GTAO and losing my money.

I prefer GTA:O. IV's multiplayer was so fun at the start but it just got dull. Mainly because there was nothing to do in liberty city. Every free roam was just a giant deathmatch, which was fun at some points but just gets boring. I love Online, there is a reason to do what you do, and doing missions with friends is fun as heck. There is so much to do and see that Liberty City could not do unless it was modded.

That would make GTAO perfect if R* included a classic free roam option. As it stands it is crazy fun, especially the new races with vehicle weapons enabled..

I preferred the old IV online set-up. In fact I would have been happy with the same set-up but maybe more players and of course a fully accessible map. Nobody goes north and free-roam was so much better in IV. I do like the fact online has the options to rob places but still doesn't make up for it.

Nothing wrong with gta online

 

there tons to do

 

make money in seconds 9.000 every 3 minutes

 

mission Violent Duct

 

i bought the 400.000 house online

 

got 3 cars

 

all is good its a great online game

 

the issues on release day were going to happen with such a big game

 

people should have known that

 

like i saId there are over 700 missions

lots of game modes more unlocks as you level up

 

people just need patience and to look into it a bit more

 

also dlc is coming out aswell with theist update

 

happy gaming

Considering that people could connect to IV and not have to download patches that only make things worse, I'll go with that one.

I'm really confused why this is even a concern...gta online is way better than IV...IMO

GTA IV is just better, if GTAO adds a classic option it would be better, I also prefer the IV way of accessing stuff through the phone, so much simpler

If you go to the bank website from your phone you can deposit all your cash and still use it. This makes sure that when someone kills you they get nothing.

I have been enjoying GTA:O so far, Especially when there is two kids who sound like 12, messing around killing each other, then one gives the other a 5k bounty, even though i'm on the other side of the map, i charge in and kill the one with the bounty, then make a run for it and easily lose the other kid. Other than another person who killed me, outside of missions that is the only other person i've killed.

How hard is it to select a tab for playing a solo session?

You actually lose like 10% of your money everytime you die. If you look in your bank transactions you'll see money being taken out for hospital bills or some BS. it sucks. Last night me and my friends went damn near broke from breaking into Fort Zancudo over and over.

They're both heavily flawed. I still prefer IV Multiplayer simply for Cops & Crooks.

To each his own on that GTA IV relic. I don't hate on you for that but this GTAO madness is seriously the game I, myself have always wanted.

 

GTA IV felt like it was missing a lot. It had potential, but it was laggy, depressing and cold.

The online sucked. I only had fun when I free roamed with my friends and played our own game modes.

GTAO has a bigger foundation to use your imagination on. More tools and capabilities for a deeper immersion. The best fun I've had since SOCOM 2.

 

and I've had a working game with no character deletion or ugly loading tutorial times. I've had a smooth experience, for the most part. I feel like the hate has to do with the people themselves, not the game.

 

Thanks R*. You still need to fix a lot of this sh*t, though.

Off-topic: there's Cops&Crooks on GTAO

 

 

Topic: I prefer GTA:O by the simple fact that free roam has a point. Customize your guy, do some missions, make money, buy stuff like apartment and cars, assault stores, work your way up in the ranks and there's a bunch of side activites like single-player. In GTA IV the free roam was just to have some fun with your buddies and try doing stunts and stuff like that but besides that the free roam was a bit pointless if you didn't have a friend to play with. IV's MP were pretty fun though like Cops and Crooks but luckily V has brought all of them together and added this new free roam experience so I choose GTAO

What the f*ck is the point of playing online then I'm just going to be playing by myself, defeats the entire purpose. I shouldn't have to resort to doing that just to not lose my sh*t, that is ridiculous. Not to mention the fact that passive mode is f*cking broken.
