Online will get worse, not better

[Guns N R0se]

Anyone else concerned about this? The more people that are high levels the more we'll see nothing but tanks, grenade launchers, rpgs, and miniguns. It won't be fun for anyone.

Well gtfo then, no one cares.

A better title would be free roam will get worse.

 

I'm excited for the future content. Heists, user created content, etc. Sounds promising.

R* will tweak the passive mode / bad sport concept - Don't worry, they'll be observing online play and will do their best to solve these problems.

I think Rockstar wants everyone high level and with guns and cars. So when heist come out its about making millions for new mansions and cars.

[Lukezordz]

Nah, I'm still having fun.

They could easily slow down levelling Rank 50+ (Making the walk from 70-90 be really slow) as well as raising the requirements for Grenade-Launcher, RPG, Tanks, Minigun etc to 100+ if they wanted and deemed it needed.

What do you predict would happen to the stocks in the near future (not in game)?? I want to invest some monies and need foresight???

I share this concern. Rockstar didn't decide whether they wanted the free-roam to be a massive death-match of anarchy, or a city for people to live and flourish within. The result is a system of bad sports, passive mode, spawning and transporting that doesn't yet feel right.

 

I'm hopeful they'll get it right eventually but, on launch, they got a lot wrong.

 

With bigger weapons and vehicles I'd expect more death-match anarchy.

It will only be worse if it takes a long time for the next CoD to come out. Once the next entry in the series is here, most of the sh*tbags in GTAO will go play that and the GTAO experience will be better. Except if there are kids who can't get their parents to buy them another game. Yeah, they'll probably still be hanging around. But by and large, I believe that it will get better once the bastards have moved on to something new.

The online world isn't static. Rockstar has given the impression that the world will be modified as time goes on, which means once there are tons of high-level people, they'll probably find a way to balance it.

This happens with every online game though. The more experienced players get really nice toys and the new ones have to fight for them. That is the reason for the passive system.
