Well then, what do you guys think?

[Reezus94]

Not surprised.

[Khaos89]

Wankers. I hope they lose even more customers over this.

I figured as much when it wasn't delivered as expected.

 

I guess "As early as the beginning of next week" can also mean "As late as never"

[Suppa K]

Do you want to be given the money only to lose it so people can come bitch here more?

 

Also, it's 500k, you could have made that ten times over just by playing. Why is everyone's life depending on this money? Have you lost the ability to play the game or something?

[ISL_Eightone]

I don't see anything in that article which we didn't already know a week ago. It seems to me that the person who wrote it has merely aggregated old information and tried to pass it off as news.

It's not about the money, they've once again said something which they haven't delivered on.

I'm guessing this is OP spamming his own website? None of this is official news, just exaggerated and old things we all know already.

[ablockkid21]

yea i seen ths rockstar dont wanna give it out yet as some people still having issues with losing items online and they patching more bugs once its all clear that nobody is losing anything then they will deliver the goods

 

we dont want nobdoy coming here and say i just lost my 500k a day or hour later when rockstar gave it to them and then complain and say they should of fix the game first before giving us the money!

"THE GTA$ STIMULUS PACKAGE

We know many of you are anxiously waiting for us to show you the GTA$ Stimulus Package money we announced a couple weeks back. As mentioned in that post, we of course want to ensure that game progress loss issues are sufficiently sorted before distributing the GTA$ to everyone. We have a few more tweaks and fixes to make in a new title update that will hit sometime next week and then we will distribute the cash."

It won't come next week, just watch.

[Dr.Huge Poop]

Who cares? I've glitched enough for the 400k house,all the supercars,boats,tank,dump,planes.

with 60,000,000 to spare. GTA Online is a joke,launch failure,cash cards, and just plain boring with over 700 missions of "go here get this and bring it back" and freeroam is just boring.

Add on the removal of the Grand Theft Auto aspect and the new encouraging a peaceful community with the Bad sport system and well...

I honestly dont care what sh*t* does,come next gen everyones gone.

All i do now is grief and troll and hand out Troll Trucks.

The night before the ps4 launch on the 15th I'll be doing the share cash hack to give everyone money,ban me for all i care I'm shooting my ps3 with my Saiga as i the tradition of destroying every old generation console.

Nothing new here, move along people.

[KoingWolf]

If it doesn't come next week week it'll just come out later when they are done making sure you you don't lose data.

 

I'm sorry you some how feel cheated over free money? Mod should lock this, you're just trying to get real money with oage views. Greedy, spoiled kids...

[stevean2]

Why the hell is a comment on that article just a link to the same article again?
Are people on that website retarded or something?

They need to fix their servers, so our progress doesn't just randomly vanish.

 

Then, and only then would they even be able to deliver the stimulus package. Otherwise it might just vanish from the cloud servers and piss people off even more.

In that case they should have kept their filthy mouths shut until they were certain the servers were fixed. Either that or not mention "as early as next week".

Yes but they have very good reason too. Once again, would you like to get the money only to lose it?

[Pig__Destroyer]

_{What bastards. Maybe some people who play legit had hopes of doing something cool? Like others have posted playing legit missions and not just grinding races takes money for ammo, vests, repairing vehicles, etc...}

 

_{Plus like many others I lost SO much money in cars, let alone missing characters.}

 

_{Plus- Rockstar really should have fixed all this by now. I mean what are doing besides planning their next venture capital. $$$$ and fake money doesn't mean sh*t to them. sucks. cod all over.}

 

_{You know its funny how they make fun of the cod like game in there with the radio ad that say " same game every time," or something like that}

I agree with you entirely.

 

Promises should not be made unless you have a high level of certainty that you can actually deliver on those promises.

"As early as next week" does not mean "next week". It means "it's possible that money will ship next week, but that's totally dependent on how quickly we fix the problems we are having".

 

People just need to learn how to read tbh.

How is this GTA like any other GTA? apart from San Andreas? even then it has many features San Andrea's dont.

Also. Stop typing in such big caps.

[AfterDeath]

I'll just glitch another $500k and pretend they delivered on their word. f*ck em

[Zonegamer]

Meh.

[M210F]

I didn't know that it was difficult to give players 500K in cash... Just another in the list of things Rockstar's lied to us about. In the advertising, they- at least implied- that we would get heists, the content creator and other features early in the game. It's been a month and they still haven't even completely fixed the servers after what must be a record-breaking 4 updates in a single month, with the only issue really being fixed being the medical bills.

 

The most bizarre thing, though, is what Rockstar has blatantly left out- from airplanes in missions like Death From Above or clothing shown in the trailer (In the section where the character gets a haircut, he wears clothing that isn't available in game) and really should be. The beach bum pack is clearly stuff which should've been available in the base game as well. The worst part is how they don't give any dates for anything- it's always "sometime next week" or "early November" or something equally ambiguous.

....There is so much wrong with this post.

[silentunion]

Are you going to get upset over money in a game?

 

Guys, get real. The only reason any of you want the 500k right away is for your own selfish reasons. 3 hours of races can easily get you 250K. It's not hard.

1) Where did they lie? They haven't said they're NOT giving it to us period, just that it's getting delayed

 

2) Long-term for multiplayer games = years. It hasn't been 1 month yet. If you want everything right away play a single player game. This is normal for multiplayer games. "Right away" for multiplayer games tends to equate to the first 6 months

 

3) If you're really this impatient about the game then you shouldn't be playing it. Go live in a 3rd world country, come back, and say the same thing.

lied to us about ---> estimate given in good faith, but unfortunately a little too ambitious.

implied we would get ... ... ... early in the game --- It's still early in the game! Potentially this could run for years if the fix their sh*t
